[pt] Retratos filmados: povoar, povoamentos, povo por vir é uma investigação textual que nasce de uma experimentação videográfica. Uma escrita em torno de encontros filmados que povoam o corpo-câmera da autora e formam um arquivo vivo, aberto, de falas, questões, povoamentos do tempo presente, expondo novas formas de se estar no mundo, processos de criação de si, pensamentos sobre o agora, insurgentes do esgotamento de um determinado modelo de vida, indicando um povo por vir. / [en] Film Portraits: populate, populating, people to come is a writing exercise on a video practice and experimentation. The writing investigates filmed encounters that populate the author s camera-body and create a live and open archive of narratives, issues and new ways of populating a thought of the present, revealing new existences and fresh approaches to processing the world, instigated by a collapsed model of life and indicating a people to come.

This thesis consists of three parts: The first and second parts focus on long-time asymptotics of macroscopic and kinetic models respectively, while in the third part we connect these regimes using different scaling approaches. (1) Keller–Segel-type aggregation-diffusion equations: We study a Keller–Segel-type model with non-linear power-law diffusion and non-local particle interaction: Does the system admit equilibria? If yes, are they unique? Which solutions converge to them? Can we determine an explicit rate of convergence? To answer these questions, we make use of the special gradient flow structure of the equation and its associated free energy functional for which the overall convexity properties are not known. Special cases of this family of models have been investigated in previous works, and this part of the thesis represents a contribution towards a complete characterisation of the asymptotic behaviour of solutions. (2) Hypocoercivity techniques for a fibre lay-down model: We show existence and uniqueness of a stationary state for a kinetic Fokker-Planck equation modelling the fibre lay-down process in non-woven textile production. Further, we prove convergence to equilibrium with an explicit rate. This part of the thesis is an extension of previous work which considered the case of a stationary conveyor belt. Adding the movement of the belt, the global equilibrium state is not known explicitly and a more general hypocoercivity estimate is needed. Although we focus here on a particular application, this approach can be used for any equation with a similar structure as long as it can be understood as a certain perturbation of a system for which the global Gibbs state is known. (3) Scaling approaches for collective animal behaviour models: We study the multi-scale aspects of self-organised biological aggregations using various scaling techniques. Not many previous studies investigate how the dynamics of the initial models are preserved via these scalings. Firstly, we consider two scaling approaches (parabolic and grazing collision limits) that can be used to reduce a class of non-local kinetic 1D and 2D models to simpler models existing in the literature. Secondly, we investigate how some of the kinetic spatio-temporal patterns are preserved via these scalings using asymptotic preserving numerical methods.

The submitted doctoral thesis is an attempt to describe the nature and of the development of Brentano's theory of judgment. This description is followed by an introduction to the further development of Brentano's theory in the work of Brentano's most distinguished students Kazimierz Twardowski (1866-1938), Alexius Meinong (1853-1920), Anton Marty (1843-1914) and Edmund Husserl (1859-1938). The thesis is divided into five parts: The first part is dedicated to the explanation of Brentano's theory of judgment and starts with an interpretation of Brentano's two early books on Aristotle - On the several senses of Being in Aristotle (1862) and The Psychology of Aristotle (1867). The thesis presents Brentano's understanding of "being" in the sense of truth, his interpretation of the Aristotelian categories, his theory of parts and wholes, and his theory of intentionality and self-consciousness. Our interpretation then proceeds to Brentano's most known work, i.e. to Psychology from an Empirical Standpoint (1874), and presents the basic concept of this book, the concept of psychical phenomena. The resulting classification of psychical phenomena into three kinds introduces judgments as a kind of psychical phenomenon whose main feature consists in existential affirmation or rejection of an intentional object....

Text in Afrikaans / Because of the variety of relationships which exist between transitive verbs and their objects, all direct objects are not comparable with one another. One class of object, however, which stands by itself and which is of considerable interest, is the OBJECT OF RESULT. Because of the particular relation which exists between object and transitive verb in resulting constructions, we have here an unique class of direct object. The resulting construction is therefore, in the first instance a relation construction. This specific relation between transitive verb and object is mainly determined by the presence of or absence of certain inherent distinctive characteristics by transitive verbs and which play a determining role in identifying OBJECTS OF RESULT. From this study it is also clear that there is a semantic value present in transitive verbs (that can combine with objects of result) which has not been observed or distinguished by lexicographers and grammarians until recently. / Omdat voorwerpe van sinne in 'n verskeidenheid van betrekkinge met (oorganklike) werkwoorde kan staan, is alle direkte voorwerpe nie almal in alle opsigte vergelykbaar met mekaar nie. Waarskynlik die interessantste voorwerp in hierdie verskeidenheid is die RESULTATIEWE VOORWERP. As gevolg van die besondere verhouding wat daar bestaan tussen hierdie voorwerp en die HW, het ans hier te make met 'n unieke tipe direkte voorwerp wat kan aanspraak maak op 'n eie bestaansreg as 'n subkategorie van die hoofkategorie: Direkte Voorwerpe. Die resulterende konstruksie is dus, in die eerste plek, 'n verhoudingskonstruksie. Hierdie spesifieke verhouding tussen die HW en die voorwerp word grootliks bepaal deur die aan- of afwesigheid van sekere inherente distinktiewe kenmerke wat by oorganklike werkwoorde voorkom en wat 'n bepalende rol speel by die ontstaan van en identifisering van RESUL TATIEWE VOORWERPE. Uit hierdie ondersoek sal verder blyk dat daar 'n semantiese waarde by oorganklike werkwoorde is wat tot dusver nag nie deur taalkundiges/woordeboekmakers of woordverklaarders onderskep en onderskei is nie. Oorganklike werkwoorde kan dus fyner gedefinieer word ten opsigte van hul verbindbaarheid, al dan nie, met resultatiewe voorwerpe. / Language Education, Arts and Culture / M.A. (Afrikaans)

This philosophical, anthropological study within a fundamental agogic perspective, employed an existential phenomenological approach to find out what adulthood is, fundamentally. Adulthood as being-ethical, is a more adequate description than chronological, biological, psychological and sociological descriptions of adulthood. Finding out what being-ethical is, required investigating what it means to be human. Only humans exist, and must participate effectively in agogic-dialogic relationships to alleviate existential yearning and experience dignifiedness. A code of effective agogy is presented. This code is the basis for a universal, fundamental code of ethics which transcends particular moral codes and professional codes of ethics. The words "ethicals", "ethicalness" and "ethicality" are employed to name, respectively, individual requirements in the code; acting according to the code; and the inescapable interrelatedness of experiencing dignifiedness and adhering to ethicals. Detailed explanations are given of what it means to respond fundamentally ethically. Adultness, humanness and ethicalness are different perceptions of the same continuum. All humans, whether aware of it or not, have an unattainable ideal of perfect humanness, to which they must perennially progress in order to experience dignifiedness, and humanness entails perennially becoming more human. Since no human can become perfectly human, the ideal of perfect humanness can be called "God". This means that the code of humanness is also the code of Godliness and the word "spiritual" is used to distinguish fundamental God from religious Gods. Spiritual responsibility is the interrelatedness of being-questioning and being-questioned. Ultimately, a person's humanness is assessed against the ideal of perfect humanness, by his or her own spiritual conscience. Humanity is the interrelatedness of the realities of existentiality, agogicality, ethicality, and spirituality and humanness is the inseparability of the continua of existentialness, ethicalness, agogicalness and spiritualness. A detailed existential-ethical description of education is given. The thesis ends with a post-scientific view of what essentially agogic orientated (educative) teaching is, and four recommendations are offered to enhance the effectiveness of agogy in teaching and learning institutions. Despite an extensive and radical study, it is acknowledged that the mystery that is humanity, can never be totally revealed. / Educational Studies / D. Ed. (Philosophy of Education)

A visibilidade das comunidades indígenas que habitam as cidades é um fenômeno recente na Colômbia. Embora o país se proclame como multiétnico e multicultural na Carta Constitucional de 1991, reconhecendo a vasta diversidade que o compõe, a pluralidade indígena ainda é tecida a partir do senso comum, ligada a uma existência eminentemente rural. Considerando a conturbada realidade colombiana, diversos fatores incentivam as comunidades indígenas a migrarem para a cidade e permanecerem nela. Neste processo, as crianças indígenas pequenas se afastam das possibilidades e vivências oferecidas pelas comunidades e territórios de origem, para se construírem como indígenas. Diante dessa realidade, surgem em 2007 as Casas de Pensamento Intercultural (CPI) de Bogotá, como forma de dar uma resposta pertinente à primeira infância indígena (meninos e meninas entre três meses e cinco anos), que moram na cidade. Esta pesquisa aborda as estratégias de existência e re-existência que as crianças indígenas, suas famílias, comunidades e as equipes pedagógicas das CPI forjam no coração de Bogotá, como espaços vivenciais para se constituíremse como indígenas. No desenvolvimento da tese, mostra-se que as CPI potencializam seu trabalho graças aos movimentos e às vivências de apropriação e ressignificação feitas pelas comunidades indígenas que ali se encontram Assim, as CPI se constróem a partir do encontro da diversidade, mediado por tensões, disputas e contradições. Situo-me nesse território utilizando as contribuições da antropologia da infância, em especial de Andrea Sulzc, Clarice Cohn e Angela Nunes. Para compreender as existências e re-existências, me baseio nas elaborações do pesquisador colombiano Adolfo Albán Achinte e proponho o essencialismo estratégico como uma forma de re-existência na cidade. Para tensionar a reflexão, recorro às contribuições de Catherine Walsh em relação à interculturalidade crítica. Contudo, o pensamento do filósofo argentino Rodolfo Kusch é o fino fio que une e encadeia cada um dos movimentos de aproximação que proponho. As vivências que atravessam a vida das crianças indígenas que estão nas CPI são apresentadas como um anúncio do surgimento de uma pedagogia mestiça, que assume o encontro das culturas como um cenário em disputa, mediado por tensões e contradições e, por essa mesma razão, profundamente fecundo. A partir desse cotidiano dinâmico, vivido em um cenário educacional indígena emergente na cidade, se constróem diversas formas de existência e re-existência, que se reúnem na música, na língua própria, na arte e no artesanato, na relação com o território de origem, na espiritualidade e na medicina ancestral. / The visibility of indigenous communities that inhabit cities is a recent phenomenon in Colombia. Although the country considers itself multi-ethnic and multicultural in the Constitutional Charter of 1991, thus recognizing the vast diversity that composes it, indigenous plurality is still woven from common sense, mainly linked to an eminently rural existence. Taking into account the convulsed reality in Colombia, various factors encourage indigenous communities to migrate to the cities and stay there. In this process, very young indigenous children move away from the possibilities and experiences offered by their communities and territories of origin to become indigenous. Faced with this reality, the Intercultural Thought Houses (CPIs) of Bogotá emerged in 2007, as a way of giving a pertinent response to young indigenous children (boys and girls between three months and five years) who live in the city. This research tackles the strategies of existence and reexistence that indigenous children, their families, communities, and pedagogical teams of the CPIs forge in the heart of Bogotá, as living spaces to become indigenous. In this thesis, I show that CPIs potentiate their work thanks to movements and experiences of appropriation and re-signification made by the indigenous communities that are there Thus CPIs are built from the combination of diversity, mediated by tensions, disputes, and contradictions. For their study, I use notions of the anthropology of childhood, proposed by Andrea Sulzc, Clarice Cohn, and Angela Nunes. To understand existences and re-existences, I work with the theory of Colombian researcher Adolfo Albán Achinte, and suggest that strategic essentialism is a form of re-existence in the city. Moreoever, as a means to expand the debate, I examine Catherine Walsh’s proposals regarding critical interculturality. Finally, all movements of approximation that I propose are connected by the ideas of the Argentinian philosopher Rodolfo Kusch. The daily life experiences of indigenous children who are in the CPIs can be taken as the result of the development of a mestizo pedagogy, which manages to take the encounter of cultures as a scenario in dispute, mediated by tensions and contradictions, and, for that very reason, extremely fruitful. From such dynamic daily life, lived in an emerging indigenous educational setting in the city, various forms of existence and re-existence are built, and brought together in music, language, art and crafts, the relationship with the territory of origin, spirituality, and ancestral medicine.

Num esforço de compreensão do contemporâneo definido como existência líquida, tensionei as interpelações das pedagogias culturais do tempo presente, que operam um tipo de formação para o consumismo de significados culturais e epistemologias que incluem e excluem, tentando modelar aquilo que temos sido nas contingências. Como rotas de fuga e desgoverno das totalizações da sociedade de controle, o currículo aqui forjado é articulado na produção teórica pós-crítica com a potência dos etnométodos dos atores curriculantes que interagiram neste processo de pesquisa com suas narrativas, instituindo epistemologia multicentrada em saberes experienciais e conhecimento. Fiz opção pela abordagem qualitativa e servi-me da etnopesquisa crítica, multirreferencial e implicada, produzindo, portanto, uma ciência implicada no social e nas novas racionalidades em multiplicidade de saberes. A pesquisa responde a como educadores refletem sobre mochilas existenciais e insurgências curriculares para interações com as pedagogias culturais do tempo presente como vibrações instituintes de etnocurrículo, por atribuírem políticas de sentido aos seus etnométodos como práticas de não-aderência e escape do consumismo de significados hegemônicos da existência líquida. Este estudo intencionou compreender/explicitar como tais educadores, implicados no segmento do Ensino Médio e da Educação de Jovens e Adultos, plasmam/forjam essa forma de currículo-vivo, (des)arrumando a escola nas contingências do espaço/tempo. Problematizou subjetivações produtoras de sujeitos e efeitos de verdades forjadas nos engendramentos dessas pedagogias culturais, criando possibilidades da escola tornar-se campo de profusão de etnocurrículo. Por fim, esta pesquisa configurou as mochilas existenciais e insurgências curriculares como empoderamento de práticas significativas que provocam rizoma formativo compósito, ampliando a noção de currículo/formação. / ABSTRACT The action that drives this research is the concept of the experienced knowledge amount and the curricular insurgencies as an ethnocurriculum establishing in the existencial plots in heterogeneous formation and with mediations of various fields of existence in their space/time of “belonging”. As an effort of understanding of contemporary defined as liquid existence. I tensioned cultural pedagogy interpellation of present time that causes a kind of formation to the consumerism of cultural meanings and epistemologies that include and exclude trying to shape what we have been in the contingencies. As escape routes and misrule of the aggregation of the society of control, the curriculum when forged is articulated in theoretical production pos-critique with the power of ethnomethods from those who interacted in this research process with their narratives establishing multicentered epistemology in experiential knowledge and knowledge. I made a choice on the qualitative approach and I used the critical multireferential and involved ethnoresearch producing thus a social compromised science and new social rationalities in multiplicity of “knowledges”. The survey answers how the educators reflect about the experienced knowledge amount and curricular insurgencies for interactions with the cultural pedagogies of the present time as ethnocurriculum former vibrations because they assign sense policies to their ethnomethods as practices of non – adherence and consumerism escape of hegemonic meanings of liquid existence. This study intended to understand/make clear as such educators involved with high school segment and education for youth and adults are forging this form of “live curriculum” disarranging education in contingencies of space/time. It rendered problematic subject producing subjectification and forged truth in engendering these cultural pedagogies creating possibilities of school becomes the ethnocurriculum profusion. Finally, this research has configured the experienced knowledge amount and curricular insurgencies as empowerment of significant practices that cause formative “composite” rhizome extending the notion of curriculum/formation

O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar e desenvolver a teoria de equações dinâmicas funcionais impulsivas em escalas temporais. Mostramos que estas equações representam um caso especial de equações diferenciais funcionais em medida impulsivas. Também, apresentamos uma relação entre estas equações e as equações diferenciais funcionais em medida e, ainda, mostramos uma relação entre elas e as equações diferenciais ordinárias generalizadas. Relacionamos, também, as equações diferenciais funcionais em medida e as equações dinâmicas funcionais em escalas temporais. Obtemos resultados sobre existência e unicidade de soluções, dependência contínua, método da média periódico e não-periódico bem como resultados de estabilidade para todos os tipos de equações descritos anteriormente. Também, provamos algumas propriedades relativas às funções regradas e aos conjuntos equiregrados em espaços de Banach, que foram essenciais para os nossos propósitos. Os resultados novos apresentados neste trabalho estão contidos em 7 artigos, dos quais dois já foram publicados e um aceito. Veja [16], [32], [34], [36], [37], [38] e [84] / The aim of this work is to investigate and develop the theory of impulsive functional dynamic equations on time scales. We prove that these equations represent a special case of impulsive measure functional differential equations. Moreover, we present a relation between these equations and measure functional differential equations and, also, a correspondence between them and generalized ordinary differential equations. Also, we clarify the relation between measure functional differential equations and functional dynamic equations on time scales. We obtain results on the existence and uniqueness of solutions, continuous dependence on parameters, non-periodic and periodic averaging principles and stability results for all these types of equations. Moreover, we prove some properties concerning regulated functions and equiregulated sets in a Banach space which were essential to our purposes. The new results presented in this work are contained in 7 papers, two of which have already been published and one accepted. See [16], [32], [34], [36], [37], [38] and [84]

The difficulty to establish this dialog comes from the man in itself, unable to think out of the understructure of science and the modern technique. The poetic language was forgotten or ignored, turning itself obsolete in front of improvements and resources of the technique. Heidegger searches the essences to the poetry so may it be comprehended in its plenitude for the man. Technique, poetry and existence must be pronounced and investigated so the being shows itself again. To Heidegger, the man lives in a period of uncertainty due finding himself at the sunset of age. The uncertainty generates the poverty and the night of world represents the absence of god and original truth. Only with the fundamental comprehension of poetry, the man of today can project himself to the future not anymore as technique product, but with freedom to choose. The message of poetry of H?lderlin and Rilke, according to Heidegger s interpretation, transmits an alert to the contemporary man against the coming danger in his maintained relation with nature. The purpose of the following work is to build this thinking dialog, without disfigure the poetry, but taking approach over its essence, so from there to remove its true existential value. / O di?logo pensante entre a filosofia de Heidegger e a poesia de H?lderlin e Rilke deve ser travado nos dom?nios da linguagem. A dificuldade em estabelecer esse di?logo vem do pr?prio homem, incapaz de pensar fora do arcabou?o da ci?ncia e da t?cnica moderna. A linguagem po?tica foi esquecida ou ignorada, tornando-se obsoleta diante das facilidades e recursos da t?cnica. Heidegger busca as ess?ncias para que a poesia possa ser compreendida em sua plenitude pelo homem. T?cnica, poesia e exist?ncia devem ser pronunciadas e investigadas para que o ser se apresente novamente. Para Heidegger, o homem vive em um per?odo de incertezas por se encontrar no entardecer de uma era (Sunset of Age). A incerteza gera a pen?ria e a noite do mundo representa a aus?ncia de Deus e das verdades origin?rias. Apenas com a compreens?o fundamental da poesia, o homem de hoje pode se projetar ao futuro n?o mais como produto da t?cnica, mas com liberdade para escolher. A mensagem da poesia de H?lderlin e Rilke, segundo a interpreta??o de Heidegger, transmite um alerta ao homem contempor?neo acerca do perigo vigente na rela??o que ele mant?m com a natureza. O objetivo do seguinte trabalho ? construir esse di?logo pensante, sem desfigurar a poesia, mas indo de encontro ? sua ess?ncia, para de l? retirar seu verdadeiro valor existencial.

Since, despite this apparent inconsistency, both ideas are present with much emphasis on the work of the French thinker, to understand the way Foucault articulated these two ideas was necessary to elucidate and interrelate the way in which he thought about the concepts of subject, power and liberty. Traveling with the author his intellectual itinerary, it was revealed that his conception of subject and liberty can be reconciled (although maintaining its problematic nature) and, also, both are inextricably linked each one as a result of the other. Tracing, with the author, his intellectual itinerary, it was also possible to identify and describe the fruitful conceptual tools for thinking about our own determinations and about the possibilities we have of creating new subjectivities and liberating experiences / O fio condutor dessa disserta??o foi a pesquisa acerca da rela??o entre dois campos de problematiza??o na obra de Michel Foucault que podem ser considerados, a uma primeira vista, inconcili?veis: por um lado, sua concep??o de sujeito como constru?do e de certa maneira e por esse motivo, fruto de determina??es, e, por outro, sua postura ?tica de busca permanente de cria??o de liberdade. Uma vez que, apesar dessa aparente inconciliabilidade, ambas as ideias est?o presentes com muita ?nfase na obra do pensador franc?s, procurou-se, nesse trabalho, compreender de que maneira est?o articuladas. Para tal, foi necess?rio elucidar e interrelacionar a maneira como ele pensou os conceitos de sujeito, poder e liberdade. Percorrendo com o autor seu itiner?rio intelectual, foi poss?vel perceber que suas concep??es de sujeito e de liberdade n?o s? podem ser conciliadas (ainda que mantendo seu car?ter problem?tico) como est?o intrinsecamente ligadas e decorrem uma da outra. Al?m disso, o percurso permitiu tamb?m identificar e descrever prof?cuas ferramentas conceituais para pensarmos sobre as conting?ncias em que nos constitu?mos e sobre as possibilidades que temos de, a partir delas, criar novas subjetividades e experi?ncias de liberdade
