A presente dissertação tem como objetivo investigar as bases fundamentais da Teoria do Reconhecimento apresentada por Axel Honneth. Para cumprir tal intento o presente texto é dividido em duas partes centrais. Em um primeiro momento, nos dois primeiros capítulos, são apresentados de forma analítica os textos hegelianos do período de Jena, visando abordar as origens do conceito de reconhecimento e sua implicação teórica no desenvolvimento honnethiano de uma luta por reconhecimento. Em um segundo momento, no último capítulo, são apresentados e analisados os argumentos honnethianos de uma atualização dos conceitos hegelianos que possibilitariam, por sua vez, uma reconstrução de uma eticidade normativa. A forma como Honneth compreende a experiência do reconhecimento permite a ele rever o modelo de como ocorre às relações intersubjetivas de autorrealização. Aqui essas relações são demonstradas de acordo com as três esferas do reconhecimento, a saber, o Amor, o Direito e a Solidariedade e suas respectivas formas de autorrealização. / Submitted by Ana Guimarães Pereira (agpereir@ucs.br) on 2016-03-04T13:18:53Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Marcelo Lucas Cesco.pdf: 711491 bytes, checksum: 838d8baf4e64c93bb3008d1bc783a780 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2016-03-04T13:18:53Z (GMT).

In order to reach our goal, the text is divided into two central parts. Firstly, we analytically present Hegel’s Jena Lectures, aiming to approach the origins of the concept “recognition” and its theoretical involvement in the honnethian development of a “fight for recognition”. Secondly, we present and analyze the honnethian arguments for an update of Hegelian concepts which have enabled a normative ethics reconstitution. Honneth’s comprehension of recognition experience allows us to revise the model for the occurrence of intersubjective relations of self-realization. Herein, we evince these relations according to three spheres of recognition, namely, Love, Rights and Solidarity and their forms of self-realization.

Orientador: Fernando Kolleritz / Resumo: Este trabalho, composto de quatro capítulos, analisa a construção do lugar e do tempo na tradução do evento histórico na televisão. O estudo faz uma incursão na complicada esfera da teoria histórica: trata da história do presente e da relação entre história e jornalismo. São analisados cinco documentos sobre a reunificação da Alemanha, no período de outubro de 1989 a outubro de 1990: o documentário da televisão estatal alemã, ZDF, Chronik der Wende (Crônica da Reunificação), duas matérias veiculadas pelo Jornal Nacional, "A queda do Muro de Berlim" e "A Unificação dos Marcos", dos repórteres Sílio Boccanera e Pedro Bial, respectivamente, e dois programas do Globo Repórter "O Muro de Berlim" e "A Reunificação da Alemanha", também dos mesmos repórteres, na mesma ordem / Abstract: This work, divided in four chapters, analises the construction of place and time by the translation of the historical event on television.

As the Holocaust passes out of living memory, this thesis re-evaluates the potential of commemorative landscapes to engender meaningful and textualised encounters with a past which, all too often, seems distant and untouchable. As the concentration camps and mass graves that shape our experiential access to this past are integrated into tourist itineraries, associated discourse is increasingly delimited by a pervasive sense of memorial fatigue which is itself compounded by the notion that the experiences of the Holocaust are beyond representation; that they deny, evade or transcend communication and comprehension. Harnessing recent developments across memory studies, cultural geography and ecocritical literary theory, this thesis contends that memory is always in production and never produced; always a journey and never a destination. In refusing the notion of an ineffable past, I turn to the texts and topographies that structure contemporary encounters with the Holocaust and consider their potential to create an ethically grounded and reflexive past-present engagement. Topographies of Suffering explores three case studies: the Buchenwald Concentration Camp Memorial, Weimar, Germany; the mass grave at Babi Yar, Kiev, Ukraine; and the razed village of Lidice, Czech Republic. These landscapes are revealed as evolving palimpsests; multi-layered, multi-dimensional and texturised spaces always subject to ongoing processes of mediation and remediation. I examine memory’s locatedness in landscape alongside the ways it may travel according to diverse literary and spatial de-territorializations. The thesis overall brings three disparate sites together as places in which the past can be encounterable, immersive and affective. In doing so, it looks to a future in which the others of the past can be faced, and in which the alibi of ineffability can be consigned to history

"Encountering 'this season's retrieval': Historical Fiction, Literary Postmodernism and the Novels of Peter Ackroyd" engages the novels Peter Ackroyd has published, and situates them within broader generic considerations and critical dialogue. Part I, an extended prefatorial apparatus, places Ackroyd and his published fiction within three historicocritical contexts: the problem of author-as-reliable-source and the disparate histories of (a) the historical novel and (b) postmodernism in general (and literary postmodernism in particular). By interrogating the histories and points-of-contention of these areas, this Part aims to problematize critical discourse enveloping Ackroyd's fiction. Part II, comprised of four chapters, discusses specific groupings of Ackroyd's novels. After providing an overview of relevant aspects of the novels and their reception by critics, Chapter A, "Moulding History with Pastiche in The Last Testament of Oscar Wilde. Dan Leno and the Limehouse Golem and Milton in America." considers the multiple functioning of pastiche—often considered a mainstay postmodern implement—in Ackroyd's work. The chapter concludes that rather than achieving a singular effect in the novels, pastiche works in divergent manners and confounds the reading of past historical actuality they ostensibly represent. Chapter B, "The Presence of the Past: Comedic and Non-Realist Historicism in The Great Fire of London and First Light." provides an overview of relevant aspects of the novels, and then analyzes how the presence of comedy in otherwise sombre historical fiction interrupts the realism of the narrative. This chapter argues that while camp comic effects disrupt the authority of quasi-historiographic techniques they cannot fully subvert realism and so create a suspensive modality. Chapter C, "PastlPresent: The Uses of History in Hawksmoor. Chatterton. The House of Doctor Dee and English Music." interrogates elements of the past-present fugue trajectories of these novels in order to problematize schematic readings of their supposed cultural politics. Finally, Chapter D, "Those Conventional Concluding Remarks: The Plato Papers. (National) History and Politics," places Ackroyd's most recent novel (one uncharacteristically set in the future) within the preoccupations of his earlier fiction. The chapter concludes with a brief outline of future scholarship that would investigate the national Englishness constructed throughout Ackroyd's biographical and novelistic work. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

Interpretations of the Nationalist Revolution in modern Chinese history, especially the so-called “Nanjing decade” (1927-1937) are dominated by theoretical notions which see the state as autonomous in its relationship to society. This autonomous state model, the dissertation argues, finds its roots in the voluntaristic ideas of Talcott Parsons. Arguments based on Parsons’s ideas view the Nationalist Revolution as abortive. The dissertation rejects these views and develops an alternative perspective based on the construction of a quasi-market model of social relations. The theoretical underpinnings, in contrast to Parsons’s ideas, are termed “de-voluntaristic.” These arguments suggest that individuals participate in, and have influence on, the operation of the state. The application of a quasi-market model suggests that there was a major transformation in Chinese society during the Nationalist period. The dissertation argues that the Nationalist Government after 1927 did not continue to achieve the initial objectives of the Nationalist Revolution which, it is suggested, aimed to build a quasi-market society. The revolution, however, was not abortive. It transformed the political system. In the Imperial tradition of government, local elites protected local communities against state encroachment through their involvement in property management. After 1927, the Nanjing Government adopted a “free market” approach to political affairs, and centralized the use of military and legal power to protect property against labour and the peasants. Peasant demands for rights to the land they tilled, a key element in Sun Yat-sen’s programme for the revolution, questioned the brokerage market economy, in which local elites acted as the intermediaries of contractual partners. Workers, in the context of industrialization, and with support from Communist organizers, attempted to improve working conditions. Peasants and workers contested the power of active elites that grew in the new political order established by. the Nationalist Government. The Nationalist State abandoned the traditional role of the Chinese state to protect the well-being of society. Deeply influenced by new elites, it protected capital accumulation and safeguarded the sanctity of contracts. The Nationalist Revolution ultimately failed as it was unable to resist the invasions of the Japanese, or the alternative social formulations of the Communist movement. / Arts, Faculty of / Anthropology, Department of / Graduate
