The roles played by the Southern Scots and Scotch-Irish in the War of American Independence have been generally neglected by American and European historians. If any reference at all is made to persons of Scottish heritage, normally only high-ranking officers or government figures are mentioned. This study identifies men of Scottish origin on every level of life and illuminates their roles in the War. In 1775 and 1776, the Scots and Scotch-Irish in the Southern colonies were not uniform in their political, social, and religious ideologies, nor were they totally of one mind in their posture toward the growing demands for independence in the American colonies. Several factors--community relationships, family ties, economic interests, and religious convictions--influenced each individual in making his decision to support the Royal government or to join the Rebels. When the British invaded the South in 1780, the Rebels and the Loyalists rekindled the internecine war which had begun in 1775. The British victory at Charles Town encouraged the Loyalists to repay the Rebels for real and imagined injuries and insults. As a result, civil strife became widespread throughout the Carolines and Georgia. Although the populace was upset over the internal struggle, it was the introduction of terror tactics by British and Loyalist officers that caused the greatest alarm among the Up-Countrymen, who were chiefly Scottish and Scotch-Irish Presbyterians. These acts of unrestrained warfare caused numerous uncommitted Up-Countrymen to join the ranks of the Rebels. Unfortunately for Cornwallis, this mistake in tactics by his subordinates forced him to fight several long and costly campaigns. In order to disperse the Rebels, the British and their allies marched into the strongholds of the South Carolina Scotch-Irish Presbyterians. This development greatly alarmed the North Carolinians. The resulting uprising of the North Carolina Scotch-Irish masses on the one hand and the subsequent military engagements in South Carolina on the other postponed Cornwallis's invasion of North Carolina. Meanwhile, as Cornwallis attempted to regroup his army and to formulate a new strategy to meet the situation, the predominantly Scottish and Scotch-Irish Rebel forces won major victories at Kings Mountain and Cowpens. Once it was apparent that militia units could defeat British regular units, many Southerners, some of whom had remained uncommitted and some of whom renewed their resistance, entered the daily growing ranks of the Rebels. At the same time, the Loyalists became reluctant to further ally themselves with the British army. These unexpected developments doomed to failure Cornwallis's plan to subjugate the Carolinas. Instead, the chain of events begun at Kings Mountain and Cowpens ended with Cornwallis's surrender at Yorktown. This study, based primarily on the Whigs' personal accounts of military involvement recorded in the Federal pension claims, in memoirs and recollections of the soldiers on both sides, and in the audited accounts of the Loyalists, demonstrates that from the very beginning of the Revolution to its end Scots and Scotch-Irishmen on all levels played major and decisive roles in the outcome of the Southern campaigns in the War of American Independence.

The primmary theme of this diploma thesis is to analyse the prevalence of overweight and obesity of children studying at second grade of elementary school in the district of České Budějovice. The theoretical part of the thesis was focused on the characteristics of the overweight and obesity and its influence on human?s health with the aim on children?s population. Furthermore, the thesis contains the main factors affecting occurence of overweight and obesity. Prevention and treatment of obesity has been presented as well. The crucial part of the thesis was the research itself. The research consisted of evaluation of results of antropometric measurement of the sample of probands studying at second grade of elementary school in the district of České Budějovice. Based on the measurement the height, weight, waist and hips circumference was found out. Furthermore, the birth weight and height was examined too. Based on the measurement the Body mass index was calculated and the predetermined research questions were answered. 243 probands from 9 elementary schools took part at the research. 11 girls were overweight (8,9% from the sample) and 17 boys (14,16%) were overweight. The prevalence of obesity was at 0,81% rate concerning girls and 10,83% rate concerning boys.

É nessa tessitura que esta pesquisa objetiva compreender a contribuição das missões itinerantes capuchinhas na “cruzada civilizatória” no Sergipe de 1874 a 1901. Para tanto, usamos como fio condutor a atuação do missionário frei João Evangelista Giuliani de Monte Marciano, a partir do seu caderno de memórias. Verificamos que essas missões deixaram diversas contribuições. Ajudaram na concretização dos planos das autoridades e dos proprietários de terras à medida que convocavam a população ao trabalho. O ideal de trabalho como instrumento de salvação não ficava apenas no discurso. Os missionários levavam a população sergipana a construir importantes obras comunitárias, ajudando a suprir uma deficiência do Estado, a exemplo de estradas, pontes, tanques, cemitérios e hospitais. Transmitiam as práticas do catolicismo a uma população carente de párocos. A missão também era uma festa para a população, que além da prática sacramental aproveitava o evento religioso para encontrar parentes e amigos e formar também novas redes de sociabilidades, importantes para o comércio. No entanto, compreendemos que a apropriação da mensagem pela população não se deu exatamente da forma como queriam as autoridades civis e eclesiásticas, pois era influenciada pela sua visão do mundo. Nesta pesquisa usamos além das fontes oficiais da Ordem Capuchinha, os Relatórios dos Presidentes da Província e os relatos de memorialistas. In the second half of the 19th century Brazil faced the substitution of the slave manual job for the free one and at the some time it aimed be transformed into a civilized nation into the European standard. It is in this aspect that this research ains to get to understand the contribution of the itinerant missions of the capuchins in the cruzade for civilization in Sergipe state between 1874-1901. For that to happen, we used as a leading wire the performace of the missionary friar João Evangelista Giuliani de Monte Marciano from his memories notebook. We realized these missions let several contributions. They helped to make the authorities plans as well as the landlords real as they convoke the population to labour. The ideal of work as a salvation instrument did not get only in the sermon. The missionaries led Sergipe people to build important comunitary buildings helping the state to supply the lack of roads, bridges, reservoirs, graveyards and hospitals. They transmited the habits of the Catholicism to a shy population of parish priests the mission was also a celebration to the people that besides the sacrament practice enjoyed the religious event to neet relatives and friends and also to get new social nets which were very useful to business. However we noticed that the appropriation of the mensage by the population wasn‟t exactly the way the civilian and religious authorities wished but they were influenced by their own view of the world. In this research it was used beyond the standard sources of the capuchins order the reports by the Presidents of the Provinces and the descriptions of the memoirists. / Salvador

The investigative focus, consubstantiated here in the structural process of this expositive text, falls upon the comprehensive disclosure of the senses and meanings of the smiles of poor young people that face processes of social exclusion and precarious social inclusions, within the present capitalist civilization, by the best tradition of the Sociology of the Absences and the Sociology of the Emergencies. This is an analytical work, done by the trails and routes configured by the contemporary thinkers, such as the basic references: Zygmunt Bauman, Michel Maffesoli, Boaventura de Sousa Santos and the analysts from the area of studies of young people by the ways of contemporary times, in XXI Century. This work is structured in five parts, following the expositive dynamics that I defined as the most fruitful in order to present thought, analysis, questions constructed by the circuits of the investigation, which are shown here: the approach of the introduction which I entitled: “Presenting the scientific work: as if it were an introduction”; Chapter I named “Ways and routes:the methodology and its processual construction”; Chapter II that deals with “The smile of young peoples like an investigative phenomenon: conceptual marks and analytic perspective”; Chapter III that consubstantiates the basis of the structure of the work with the title: “Young peoples in contemporary times: delineating ways of analysis”; Chapter IV that incorporates the discoveries and questions weaved by the texture of the theory/empiric aspects, named “Smiles of the young peoples in the suburban areas: the practice of the Sociology of the Absences and the Sociology of the Emergencies”; at last, I present conclusions to incorporate ways of the study that I entitled: “Places of arrival to glimpse new trips: as title of conclusion” / Em uma construção processual que durou seis anos, desde a elaboração do projeto de investigação até a conclusão da tese, consolidando-se nos percursos do doutorado, foram-se delineando os contornos do objeto de estudo, circunscrito nos sorrisos das juventudes pobres que habitam as periferias da vida. O foco investigativo, aqui consubstanciado na estruturação deste texto expositivo, incide no desvendamento compreensivo dos sentidos e significados dos sorrisos dessas juventudes que vivenciam processos de exclusão e inclusão precaria, nesta civilização do capital, no tempo presente, na melhor tradição da sociologia das ausências e da sociologia das emergências. É uma empreitada analítica, a partir de trilhas e vias configuradas por pensadores contemporâneos, destacando-se como referências fundantes: Zygmunt Bauman, Michel Maffesoli, Boaventura de Sousa Santos e analistas no campo dos estudos sobre juventudes nos percursos da atualidade.

A tragédia grega As bacantes, de Eurípides, considerada de grande relevância, não apenas literária e teatral, mas, sobretudo, histórica e política, é analisada, nesta dissertação, sob o viés mítico-social, observando-se os diálogos que o poeta estabelece entre um aspecto do passado mítico de sua cultura e seu próprio tempo. Para tal, apresenta-se uma pesquisa acerca do momento histórico da tragédia grega, abordando seu intrínseco valor político, discussões teóricas a respeito de suas características, suas origens, os três principais tragediógrafos e sua recepção, bem como um olhar específico sobre Eurípides e seu legado. Na obra de arte em questão, ressaltamos, em especial, a relação entre as personagens Dioniso e Penteu, como indicadoras dos debates acerca do que se considera civilizado, selvagem ou bárbaro. A esse respeito, verificamos, ainda, pelo lugar de cultura tradicionalmente ocupado por Apolo, em também tradicional oposição a Dioniso, diferentes considerações sobre civilizado, selvagem e bárbaro, bem como a indissociabilidade entre barbárie e civilização, podendo ser balizados conforme valores políticos preponderantes. Tal indissociabilidade consiste na coexistência de elementos de barbárie e de civilização tanto em Dioniso quanto em Apolo, tomados como parâmetros arquetípicos dentro de uma sociedade / Euripides Greek tragedy Bacchae, highly praised for its relevance not only literary and theatrical, but specifically historical and political is analyzed throughout this thesis with a mythic-social idiosyncrasy, by perceiving the inter-established dialogs between the aspect of the poet's own cultural mythic past and his living epoch. Thus, presented is a research about Greeks tragedy historical moment, its intrinsic political value and theoretical discussions upon its characteristics, origins, its three most important play writers and its reception, as well as a specific examination over Euripides and his legacy. In the selected work of art we have mainly observed the relationship between the characters of Dionysos and Pentheus, as debate gauges around what is considered to be civilized, wild or barbaric. In this regard, we uphold, through the position of culture traditionally occupied by Apolo, in traditional as well opposition to Dionysos, different considerations about civilized, wild and barbaric, as well as the indissoluble connection between barbarism and civilization, concepts that can be delimited according to ruling political values. Such inseparable connection consists in the coexistence of barbaric and civilized elements, both in Dionysos as in Apolo, taken after archetypal parameters within a society

Faust, Don Juan et Don Quixotte ne sont que certains exemples de personnages qui sont devenus des présentations de l'individualité moderne dans la Littérature. À travers les siècles, des innombrables variations de ces mythes ont illustré les ouvrages de plusieurs écrivains, l'une des raisons qui a permis la propagation de ces figures littéraires. Donc, on a trouvé dans la Littérature Française, de manière plus spécifique sur l'ouvrage de l'écrivain Honoré de Balzac, des questions qui ne sont pas rapportés seulement au milieu social, mais aussi au niveau individuel, à la nature humaine. Dans ce sens, le personnage Don Juan Belvidéro, du récit « L'élixir de longue vie », devient une des variations les plus sataniques du mythe de Don Juan, puisque les attitudes egoïstes et ambicieuses du personnage permettent même sa propre chute. Raphaël de Valentin, protagoniste de La peau de chagrin, peut être la présentation de Faust, celui qui a fait le pacte avec Mephistópheles pour réussir le pouvoir. Toutefois, Raphaël n'est qu'un individu qui n'a rien atteint dans la vie et a eu la chance de posséder tout ce qu'il a toujours souhaité, par moyen d'un talisman magique, avec le seul désavantage de donner en retour ses journées de vie. Donc, on travaillera sur ces deux récits pour la vérification de ces personnages qui ont été construits sur les mythes de Faust et Don Juan et, pour cela, il faut rechercher certaines variations de ces figures dans l'histoire de la Littérature, pour introduire le travail. Travailler sur des thèmes modernes dans l'ouvrage de Balzac est aussi important, ainsi, à partir de travaux critiques dévéloppés par Ernest Curtius, Pierre Brunel et d'autres chercheurs de l'ouvrage littéraire de Balzac, on va approfondir le travail et dévélopper les... / A abordagem sobre os mitos da modernidade constitui uma temática muito abrangente nos Estudos Literários. Fausto, Don Juan e Dom Quixote são apenas alguns exemplos de personagens que se tornaram representações da individualidade moderna na Literatura. No decorrer dos séculos, inúmeras variações desses mitos ilustraram as obras de escritores diversos, um dos motivos que possibilitou a propagação dessas figuras. Assim, encontramos na Literatura Francesa, mais especificamente na obra do escritor Honoré de Balzac, questões relacionadas não apenas ao social, mas também ao individual, à natureza do homem. Nesse sentido, a personagem Don Juan Belvidéro, do conto L'elixir de longue vie, torna-se uma das variações mais satânicas do mito de Don Juan, uma vez que as atitudes egoístas e ambiciosas da personagem possibilitam até mesmo sua própria queda. Raphaël de Valentin, protagonista de La peau de chagrin, pode ser, então, a representação de Fausto, aquele que compactou com Mefistófeles em troca de poder. Todavia, Raphaël é apenas um indivíduo que não alcançou nada em vida e recebe a chance de possuir tudo o que sempre desejou, usando um talismã mágico, com a única desvantagem de dar em troca seus dias de vida. Logo, analisaremos essas duas narrativas para verificarmos a construção dessas personagens, que foram alicerçadas nos mitos de Fausto e Don Juan e, para isso, torna-se necessário resgatar algumas variações dessas figuras na história da literatura, para introduzir o trabalho. Discorrer a respeito desses temas modernos na obra de Balzac também é relevante, por esse motivo, a partir da fortuna crítica desenvolvida por Ernest Curtius, Pierre Brunel e outros pesquisadores da obra de Balzac, aprofundaremos nosso trabalho e desenvolveremos as temáticas relacionadas à religião, à modernidade e às relações de poder. Posteriormente, torna-se necessário analisar as narrativas pelas suas... / The approach to the myths of modernity is a very comprehensive theme in Literary Studies. Fausto, Don Juan and Don Quixote are just a few examples of characters who become literature's representations of modern individuality. Over the centuries, a lot of variations of these myths illustrated the works of several writers, one of the reasons that enabled the spread of these figures. So we find in French literature, specifically the work of Honoré de Balzac, issues related not only to social but also to the individual, the man's nature. This way, the character Don Juan Belvidero, the story L'Elixir de longue vie, becomes one of the most satanic variations of the myth of Don Juan, since the selfish and ambitious caracter's behavior motivate his fall . Valentin Raphaël, protagonist of La peau de chagrin, can be then the representation of Fausto, who allied with Mephistopheles in exchange for power. However, Raphael is just a guy who haven't anything in life and gets the chance to own everything he ever desired, using a magic talisman, and the only disadvantage is to give his life in exchanged. We will analyze these two narratives to verify the construction of these characters, both founded in the myth of Fausto and Don Juan and for this it's necessary to rescue some variations of these figures in literary history to this work. Discoursing about these modern themes in Balzac's work is important from the critical fortune developed by Ernest Curtius, Pierre Brunel and other researchers of the Balzac's liteture, to go deep in our work and to develop the themes related to religion, modernity and power relations. Later, wil be necessary to analyze the narratives by their spatial and narratological features, with the help of Michel Foucault and Gérard Genette, so we can also understand if the magical objects appereance in narratives are related to the introduction of modern myths.

Neste processo de inflexão, poder-se-ia observar a demarcação definitiva da ruptura de Habermas com os fundamentos da teoria crítica da sociedade, presentes nos pensadores da primeira geração da Escola de Frankfurt; e, a adesão aos princípios e fundamentos do liberalismo, como forma de delinear e demarcar o processo de construção de uma teoria social, bem como de uma teoria da evolução social, particular e autônoma, posta nos marcos do elogio da sociedade capitalista. Tratar-se-ia da afirmação de um tipo particular de neocontratualismo com vista a salvação de um projeto de modernidade e de racionalidade completamente esgotados na e pela sociabilidade burguesa e que, portanto, só poderia se consubstanciar sob a forma e nos marcos da regressão cultural. Neste processo de inflexão, uma categoria advinda dos teóricos da primeira geração da Escola de Frankfurt tornara-se central na teoria social de Habermas, na medida em que a concepção de capitalismo de Estado adquirira centralidade nos seus mais diversos e contraditórios diagnósticos do tempo presente, de tal forma que se consubstanciaria sob a forma da concepção de capitalismo tardio e mediaria a passagem da centralidade da categoria trabalho, mesmo que inscrita na esfera lógica e gnosiológica-epistêmica, para a centralidade da categoria da política. Tal mudança radical de paradigma passou a influenciar progressivamente a nova teoria crítica, inaugurada com a segunda geração de Habermas, que pouco ou nada se identificara aos teóricos da primeira geração da Escola de Frankfurt. Assim sendo, o diagnóstico do tempo presente, exposto neste trabalho, fora o de que os trinta anos que separa Student und Politik de Theorie des Kommunikativen... / Objective is to demonstrate in this paper that there is a process of inflection in the work of Habermas, who is full-starts with your Student und Politik, 1961 and, inescapably, with his Theorie des Kommunikativen work of 1981 this process of inflection, power-would observe the final demarcation of the break with the foundations of Habermas critical theory of society, thinkers present in the first generation of the Frankfurt School; and adherence to the principles and foundations of liberalism as a way to delineate and demarcate the process of building a social theory and a theory of social evolution, private and autonomous, put milestones in praise of capitalist society. Would treat the claim of a particular type of neo-contractualism overlooking the salvation of a project of modernity and rationality completely exhausted and by the bourgeois sociability and, therefore, could only substantiate the form and within the framework of cultural regression . In this process of inflection, a category arising from the first generation of theorists of the Frankfurt School had become central in social theory of Habermas, in that the design of state capitalism acquired centrality in its various and contradictory diagnoses of this time, such that if consubstanciaria as designing and late capitalism mediates the passage of the centrality of work category, even inscribed in the sphere logical and epistemological-epistemic, to the centrality of the category of politics. Such a radical paradigm shift began to progressively influence the new critical theory, inaugurated with the second generation of Habermas, that little or nothing had identified the first generation theorists of the Frankfurt School. Therefore, the diagnosis of this time, exposed in this work, out of the thirty years separates Student und Politik of Theorie des Kommunikativen, served primarily to hatch the egg of a serpent that would eventually support a discourse ethics, as well as...

Na acepção freudiana, felicidade refere-se, por um lado, à realização do programa do princípio de prazer, ou seja, retorno ao inanimado e, por outro, ao desvio da finalidade original das pulsões e domínio racional destas. Em Eros e Civilização, tomando como interlocutores Freud e Marx, Marcuse especula sobre a hipótese de uma civilização não-repressiva. A felicidade é conceituada como a satisfação das verdadeiras necessidades de todos os homens em um contexto de liberdade. A partir desta concepção, analisam-se as críticas e as particularidades do pensamento de Marcuse visando a mostrar que, embora a problemática exposta do ponto de vista de uma leitura ortodoxa de Freud seja pertinente, o conceito de felicidade, para ser compreendido e revelar seu potencial crítico, requer uma análise que contemple a inserção da psicanálise no campo da dialética empreendida por Marcuse / This research shows a critical examination on the concept of happiness according to Freud, face up to Marcuse. In Freudian meaning, happiness refers, on one side, to the accomplishment of pleasure principle program, that is, return to the inanimate and, on the other side, to the deviation from the original purpose of that and rational domain. In Eros and Civilization, by having as interlocutors Freud and Marx, Marcuse speculates about the hypothesis of a non-repressive civilization. Happiness is defined as the real needs of all men in a context of freedom. From these conceptions, the criticism and particularities of Marcuse`s thought were analyzed aiming to show that, although the problem exposed from the point of view of an orthodox reading of Freud, the concept of happiness, in order to be understood and reveal its critical potential, requires an analysis which contemplates the insertion of the psychoanalysis in the field of dialectics undertaken by Marcuse

Assim, a paideia e a filosofia eram mediadoras de uma ética que orientava o comportamento e as ações do governante, lapidando sua natureza e dando-lhe condições de refrear seus instintos e suas paixões. O governante, que mais recebesse educação e fosse doutrinado pela filosofia teria mais condições de dirigir com justiça e prudência a comunidade de cidadãos. Esse era o tipo de governante que Plutarco julgava ideal: bem educado, virtuoso e sábio como um filósofo, tal como Platão o pensou, e a imagem que mais se aproximava desse ideal era a de Alexandre, o grande. / For the constants generalizations maked over all Plutarch's corpus, which was superficially described as basically a moral project, the aim of this work claim fortify the thought which the greek writer view the policy activity as essential in the man's life.

Starting from the hypothesis that historiographic discourse was produced in the space of knowledge that postulated a distinction between past and present regarding the indigenous people, based on the thesis that they were remnants of an ancient civilization that degenerated.
