DISOCIJATIVNI PROSTOR MODERNOSTI: diskurs praznine u arhitekturi i vizuelnim umetnostima XX i početka XXI veka / DISSOCIATIVE SPACE OF MODERNITY: The Discourse of Emptinesswithin Architecture and Visual Arts in 20th and at the Beginnig of 21stCentury

Milićević Slađana 19 January 2018 (has links)
<p>Tema ove studije je teorijsko uobličavanje definicije disocijativnog prostora, kojim se opisuje specifično moderni odnos subjekta i prostora, odnosno koekstenzivni (ekstimni) karakter prostornosti i subjektivnosti u modernoj epohi. Analiza prostora u polju disocijativnosti sprovedena je u oblasti arhitekture i vizuelnih umetnosti, prevashodno se oslanjajući na istraživanja u oblasti filozofije, psihologije i teorijske psihoanalize.</p> / <p>The topic of this study is theoretical formation of the definition of dissociative<br />space, by which specifically modern relation between subjet and space is<br />explained, i.e. coextensive (extimate) character of spatiality and subjectivity<br />of modern epoch. Analysis of space in the field of dissociativness was made<br />within the field of architecture and visual arts, primarly relying on<br />investigations in the fields of filosophy, psychology and theoretical<br />psychoanalysis.</p>

Perceptions of Empty Nest Mothers From Diverse Socioeconomic Backgrounds With Boomerang Kids

Lary, Banning Kent 01 January 2015 (has links)
In the United States, a growing number of young people are failing to launch into self-sufficiency, a characteristic of adulthood recognized by most cultural groups. These "boomerang children" return home and interrupt the life course development of their "empty nest" mothers who must suspend plans for self-development. How mothers from different socioeconomic backgrounds cope with this countertransitional phenomenon while preparing their children for successful relaunch is not well known. Elder's life course paradigm provided the theoretical framework for this phenomenological study. Perceptions were collected from an ethnically diverse group of 23 empty nest mothers with 30 boomerang children and seven boomerang grandchildren from five U.S. states, recruited using criterion-based convenience sample. Data were collected through recorded telephone interviews that were transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using Saldana's codes-categories-emergent themes model. The findings revealed that boomerang children caused emotional and financial distress, a reassessment of parenting skills, and that boomerang grandchildren reinvigorated the mother's prime identity as a caregiver. These findings were consistent regardless of ethnicity or socioeconomic status. This study contributes to the empirical literature by depicting the boomerang phenomenon as a shift in cultural expectations which represents a new phase in the life course development paradigm. Findings from this study can also guide the work of future researchers, assist mental health counselors who deal with these issues, and inform school guidance counselors who design career trajectories for students.

張湛《列子注》貴虛思想研究 / A Study on Chang - Chan's Theories of Emptiness from the Book of 《Lieh Tzu Chu》

吳慕雅, Wu, Mu Ya Unknown Date (has links)
張湛《列子注》長久以來在學術界未受到重視,但是在整個魏晉玄學的發展史上(尤其是東晉玄學)實具有不可磨滅的價值,因此對於張湛的玄學思想應給予什麼樣的評價?張湛的「貴虛」思想與《列子》的「貴虛」究竟有什麼不同?他的理論是否可以名之為「貴虛論」?張湛的思想體系只是單純的雜揉各家的說法、還是又提出了一些新的命題及概念?這些都是在探討張湛思想所欲解決的問題。本文擬分為六章,以「貴虛」為理論核心,再探討相關的幾個重要的子題--言意觀、力命論、天道觀、聖人論等,將張湛的行為及思考模式作一時代的定位。本文各章重點如下:第一章緒論,先宏觀介紹東晉玄學的特色及《列子注》「貴虛」的意涵,並對張湛是否偽作《列子》疑案作一釐清。第二章言意觀,說明《列子注》言意之辨的內涵,從去知忘言的語言模式及名實與公私二方面論述。進而再探討張湛的思考脈絡及思維方式。第三章天道觀,探討有無之辨的思想背景及思想內涵,從道與的關係、萬有生化的情形、宇宙的生成三方面申說。第四章力命論,主要探討理與力命的關係及「為我」與「知命」觀念的矛盾與調和。第五章聖人之道,說明張湛「聖人」模式的內涵及儒道調和的意義,並進一步闡明張湛對於覺與夢的辨別及具體的修養之方。第六章結論,對張湛思想體系的檢討及評價。

Constructing Definitions of Sexual Orientation in Research and Theory

Phillips, Daleana 28 November 2007 (has links)
Definitions of sexual orientation are reflections of theoretical positions within the essentialist versus social constructionist debate. A cognitive sociological approach to analyzing the positions within this debate allows theorists and researchers to be aware of three distinct theoretical positions or thought communities: natural kinds thought community, social kinds thought community, and empty kinds thought community. Standard content analysis and grounded theory methods are used to analyze the principles, strategies, and practices each thought community uses to mark group membership into various sexual categories. The analysis reveals that each theoretical perspective is marking group membership differently.

As demandas curriculares da revolução pinguina no Chile: lutando pela qualidade da educação. / The curricular demands of the Penguin Revolution in Chile: fighting for quality education.

Luis Leal Cuevas 28 August 2014 (has links)
Identificar e analisar as demandas de tipo curricular articuladas no discurso do movimento social denominado como Revolução Pinguina, o que luta por uma educação de qualidade, gratuita e equitativa para os chilenos. Utilizo como referencial teórico, com registro pos-estrutural, a teoria do currículo desenvolvida por Alice Casimiro Lopes e Elizabeth Macedo a partir de uma abordagem discursiva e, a teoria do discurso desenvolvida por Ernesto Laclau em parceria com Chantal Mouffe. Entendo que essas demandas se inserem dentro dum conjunto mais amplo de demandas diferenciais que tem por antagonismo o projeto neoliberal do governo, representado pela concertación de partidos por la democracia. Dessa forma existem duas cadeias discursivas, por um lado o discurso dos estudantes, por outro, o discurso do governo, ambos tentam fixar determinados sentidos para o que representa qualidade da educação, desenvolvendo una guerra de representações. Defendo que por essa amplitude da cadeia discursiva a partir da incorporação de novas demandas representativas de diferentes atores sociais, também há um esvaziamento das bandeiras de luta, mas também uma maior força do movimento. Nesse sentido o significante qualidade da educação se transformou num significante vazio que se desprendeu de seus conteúdos concretos e precisos para poder representar provisoriamente a totalidade que a excede, ou seja, deixou de representar apenas um grupo especifico para representar a totalidade do movimento social. Assim, a luta política do movimento estudantil chileno pela educação de qualidade, tem colocado no centro do debate nacional diversas temáticas vinculadas com educação, mobilizando periodicamente á sociedade e conseguindo importantes transformações dentro da estrutura do sistema educativo nacional, significada pelo discurso estudantil como um sistema em crise. / Identify and analyze the articulate curricular demands in the discourse of the social movement known as Penguin Revolution, who struggles in order to achieve a free, egalitarian and quality education for the Chileans. Based on the curricular theory developed by A.Lopes and B.Macedo, and the theory of the discourse developed by Ernesto Laclau in society with Chantal Mouffe. Understanding that these demands are inserted within a broader group of distinguishing demands whose antagonists are the governments neoliberal project, represented by the Concertación de partidos por la democracia. In this way, there are two discursive chain: on one hand, the discourse of the students, on the other hand the discourse of the Chilean government. They both try to establish their own meaning for quality in education, developing a war of representations. I sustain that the broadening of the discourse chain, due to the incorporation of the new demands representing different social actors, has allowed strengthening the movement of the Penguin Revolution, which has permitted the articulation of a chain of equivalences between the demands which has led this discourse to remain hegemonic through time. Precisely thanks to the constant addition of new social demands. In this sense the signifier quality of the education has turned into a empty signifier, unable to represent temporarily the totality of the social movement. This is, the totality of the demands registered in the articulatory chain. In this way, the political struggle of the Chilean student movement for a quality education has put on the national debate the issue of the education, periodically setting in motion the society, and achieving important transformations within the structure of the national education system

SILAGEM DE PAPUÃ OU DE SORGO NA TERMINAÇÃO DE BOVINOS: TECIDOS CORPORAIS E CARACTERÍSTICAS DA CARCAÇA E DA CARNE / ALEXANDER GRASS SILAGE OR SORGHUM IN FINISHING CATTLE: BODY TISSUES AND CARCASS AND MEAT CHARACTERISTICS

Weise, Matheus Smidt 29 February 2012 (has links)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of the use of Alexander grass silage (Urochloa plantaginea) on body tissues that are not part of the carcass, as well as the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the carcass and meat from feedlot finished steers. It was used 12 castrated, pure and crossbred Charolais x Nellore steers, age and initial weight were 20 months and 245 kg respectively, distributed in two different treatments: Alexander grass silage (AS) = animals fed with 51% of Alexander silage and 49% of concentrate and, sorghum silage (SS) = animals fed with 53% sorghum silage and 47% of concentrate (control group). The diet was calculated searching to meet the minimal nutritional requirements in order to obtain an average daily weight gain of 1.2 kg/animal and, estimating a dry matter intake of 2.5 kg/100 kg alive. The experimental design used was randomized blocks with two treatments and six samples per treatment; each experimental unit consisted of one animal. The slaughter weight (SW), empty body weight (EBW) and, the relationship between EBW/SW were similar for animals in the tested roughage, with mean values of 442.66 kg, 381.45 kg and 0.86 respectively. The rumen-reticulum expressed in kg and, the gastrointestinal content in absolute or relative weight for 100 kg of empty body weight (%EBW) were higher for AS animals while, the liver in %EBW was higher for SS animals. AS animals showed higher kidney fat deposition, both in absolute weight and %EBW and, increased deposition of fat in the abomasum %EBW. However, in total numbers, the fats that are not part of the carcass did not differ between treatments. Hot carcass yield and fat thickness were similar between animals in the tested roughage, with an average of 58.8% and 4.7 mm, respectively. The same behavior was observed for meat color, texture and marbling. Nevertheless, the meat from AS animals showed a greater muscle and fat liquid loss when subjected to cooking. There was no difference in meat chemical composition between the tested roughage with mean values of 20.27, 76.17, 2.11 and 1.14% for crude protein, moisture, ether extract and mineral matter respectively. / O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o efeito do uso da silagem de papuã (Urochloa plantaginea) sobre os tecidos corporais que não perfazem a carcaça, bem como, os aspectos quantitativos e qualitativos da carcaça e da carne de novilhos terminados em confinamento. Utilizaram-se 12 bovinos machos castrados, puros e mestiços Charolês x Nelore, com idade e peso médio inicial de 20 meses e 245 kg respectivamente, distribuídos em dois tratamentos: Silagem de Papuã (SP) = animais recebendo 51% de silagem de papuã e 49% de concentrado e Silagem de Sorgo (SS) = animais recebendo 53% de silagem de sorgo e 47% de concentrado (grupo controle). A dieta foi calculada buscando-se atender os requerimentos mínimos nutricionais, a fim de obter-se um ganho de peso médio diário de 1,2 kg/animal, estimando-se um consumo de matéria seca 2,5 kg/100 kg de peso vivo. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi de blocos ao acaso, com dois tratamentos e seis amostras por tratamento, sendo cada unidade experimental composta por um animal. O peso de abate (PAB), peso de corpo vazio (PCV), assim como a relação entre PCV/PAB foram similares entre os animais dos volumosos testados, apresentando valores médios de 442,66 kg, 381,45 kg e 0,86 respectivamente. Os órgãos rúmen-retículo expressos em kg, e o conteúdo gastrintestinal tanto em peso absoluto ou relativo a 100 kg de peso de corpo vazio (%PCV), foram superiores nos animais SP, já o órgão fígado em %PCV foi superior nos animais SS. Os animais SP apresentaram maior deposição de gordura renal, tanto em peso absoluto quanto em %PCV, e maior deposição de gordura do abomaso em %PCV. Porém na totalidade, as gorduras que não perfazem a carcaça não apresentaram diferença entre os tratamentos. O rendimento de carcaça quente e a espessura de gordura foram similares entre os animais dos volumosos testados, apresentando médias de 58,8% e 4,7 mm, respectivamente. Mesmo comportamento se observou quanto à coloração, textura e marmorização da carne. No entanto, a carne provenientes de animais SP apresentou maior perda de líquidos e gordura muscular quando submetidas à cocção. Não houve diferença na composição química da carne entre os volumosos testados, apresentando valores médios de 20,27; 76,17; 2,11 e 1,14% para proteína bruta, umidade, extrato etéreo e matéria mineral respectivamente.

QUALIDADE DA CARCAÇA E CARNE DE NOVILHOS ALIMENTADOS COM DIETAS COM BORRA DE SOJA / CARCASS AND MEAT QUALITY OF STEERS FED DIETS WITH SOYBEAN SOAPSTOCK

Segabinazzi, Luciane Rumpel 16 February 2012 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The objective of this study was to evaluate carcass characteristics, the non carcass components, the lipid profile and the sensorial characteristics of meat from steers finished in feedlot fed diets containing different levels of inclusion of soybean soapstock. We used 30 Nellore and Charolais-Nellore crossbred steers with initial mean age of 20 months and initial mean weight of 20 months and 328.3 kg (±18.8 kg) were allotted to five dietary treatments: 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 g of soybean soapstock/kg dry matter (DM) of diet . The diet consisted of forage(corn silage):concentrate ratio of 39:61 (DM basis), and was offered "ad libitum" during 84 days. A inclusão de até 120 g de borra de soja/kg de MS na dieta não alterou o peso de abate e os rendimentos de carcaça quente e fria, assim como os componentes teciduais músculo, gordura e osso. The inclusion up to 120 g of soybean soapstock/kg DM in the diet did not alter the slaughter weight and hot and cold carcass yields, as well as the muscle, fat and bone tissues. It also did not alter the empty body weight and yield, and hot and cold carcass yields adjusted for the empty body weight. The relative weight of the blood decreased with the addition of up to 55 g of soybean soapstock/kg DM in the diet, but the inclusion of up to 120g/kg DM in the diet promoted a linear increase in the relative weight of the lung and spleen, a linear reduction of the relative weight of the omasum and rumen fat. The kidney fat deposition, when adjusted for empty body weight, increased with the inclusion of up to 50 g of soybean soapstock/kg DM. The total weight of external components, vital, gastrointestinal and internal fat did not differ. With respect to meat quality, including between 83 to 91 g soybean soapstock/kg of diet DM promoted the highest levels of Vacenic (C18: 1 trans -11) and CLA (C18: 2 cis-9 trans-11) fatty acids, however, promoted also the highest levels of trans fats in the steers meat. The levels of fatty acids of the omega-3 group decreased linearly with the inclusion of dietary soybean soapstock , increasing the omega-6:omega-3 ratio in the steers meat. The lipid content increased linearly with the addition of soybean soapstock , but the content of cholesterol remained similar. The inclusion of dietary soybean soapstock did not affect meat marbling, color, palatability, juiciness, tenderness, and losses of the thawing and cooking liquid. / Objetivou-se nesse estudo avaliar as características da carcaça, dos componentes não integrantes da carcaça e do perfil lipídico e sensorial da carne de novilhos terminados em confinamento, alimentados com dietas contendo diferentes níveis de inclusão de borra de soja. Foram usados 30 novilhos Nelore e cruzas Charolês-Nelore com idade média inicial de 20 meses e peso médio inicial de 328,3 kg (±18,8 kg), distribuídos em cinco tratamentos alimentares: 0; 30; 60; 90 e 120 g de borra de soja/kg de matéria seca (MS) da dieta. A dieta foi constituída de volumoso (silagem de milho):concentrado com relação de 39:61 (com base na MS), e ofertada à vontade durante 84 dias. A inclusão de até 120 g de borra de soja/kg de MS na dieta não alterou o peso de abate e os rendimentos de carcaça quente e fria, assim como os componentes teciduais músculo, gordura e osso. A inclusão de até 120 g de borra de soja/kg de MS na dieta também não alterou o peso e rendimento de corpo vazio, e rendimentos de carcaça quente e fria, ajustada ao peso do corpo vazio. O peso relativo do sangue reduziu com a inclusão de até 55 g de borra de soja/kg de MS na dieta, porém a inclusão de até 120g/kg de MS na dieta promoveu aumento linear no peso relativo do pulmão e baço, redução linear no peso relativo do omaso e da gordura ruminal. A deposição de gordura renal, quando ajustada ao peso de corpo vazio, aumentou com a inclusão de até 50 g de borra de soja/ kg de MS. Os pesos totais dos componentes externos, vitais, gastrintestinais e das gorduras internas não diferiram. Com relação a qualidade da carne, a inclusão entre 83 a 91 g de borra de soja/kg de MS da dieta promoveu os maiores teores dos ácidos graxos Vacênico (C18:1 trans-11) e CLA (C18:2 cis-9 trans-11), entretanto, promoveu também os maiores teores de gorduras trans na carne dos novilhos. Os teores de ácidos graxos da família ômega-3 reduziu linearmente com a inclusão da borra de soja na dieta, refletindo com isso, no acréscimo da relação ômega-6:ômega-3 na carne de novilhos. O teor de lipídios aumentou linearmente com a inclusão da borra de soja, porém o de teor de colesterol se manteve semelhante. A inclusão da borra de soja na dieta não alterou a marmorização, cor, palatabilidade, suculência, maciez, e perdas de líquidos ao descongelamento e cocção da carne.

Plateaux nus, espaces vides : esthétiques scéniques du vide et du dépouillement au XXe siècle en France : pratiques, imaginaires, idéologies / Naked stages, empty spaces : scenic Aesthetics of the void and the bareness on the 20th century in France : practices, Representations, Ideologies

Carré, Alice 10 December 2015 (has links)
La recherche d’espaces dépouillés est l’un des grands marqueurs de l’évolution de la scénographie au XXe siècle. De même que pour les arts plastiques, cette tension vers le vide est associée à la redéfinition des formes dans leur mutation moderne et postmoderne. Plateaux nus et espaces vides constituent deux modalités particulières de cette recherche de l’épure. Le plateau nu débarrasse la scène du décor et de son appareil illusionniste et resserre la représentation sur la présence d’un acteur et l’écoute du texte. D’abord solution pratique, rupture avec un théâtre commercial et bourgeois, le plateau nu est ancré dans une conception éthique du théâtre. Cette première partie de l’étude se fonde sur les espaces de Jacques Copeau, Jean Vilar, Antoine Vitez et Christian Schiaretti. L’espace vide, étudié à travers le travail de Peter Brook, Claude Régy, Joël Pommerat et Nacera Belaza cherche à construire un ailleurs. Cette étude propose d’étudier le succès contemporain des esthétiques scéniques du vide et du dépouillement. Aujourd’hui, le plateau nu est devenu un patrimoine, portant en lui les valeurs du théâtre public et s’associant implicitement à une célébration de ses pionniers, Jacques Copeau et Jean Vilar. L’espace vide, vu à travers les traditions orientales se charge d’une spiritualité, et est aussi perçu comme l’au-delà mental de la représentation. Espaces vides et plateaux nus, s’ils ont pu naître de contraintes économiques sont aujourd’hui devenus des espaces luxueux. / The research of concise spaces is one of the marks of the scenography evolution on the 20th century. As in the visual arts, this mouvement towards to the void is associated with a redefinition of the forms in their modern and postmodern mutations. Naked stages and empty spaces constitute two particular modalities of research of an uncluttered style. The naked stage removes the scenery and the scenic illusion from the stage to focus its representation on the actor and the text. Starting as a practical solution and rupture with commercial and bourgeois theater, the naked stage is anchored in an ethical conception of theater. This first part of this study is based on the spaces according to Jacques Copeau, Jean Vilar, Antoine Vitez and Christian Schiaretti. The empty space seeks to find new horizons, examined through the concepts of space by Peter Brook, Claude Régy, Joël Pommerat and Nacera Belaza. This study proposes to examine the contemporary success of aesthetic scenics based on void and bareness. The naked stage has become nowadays a heritage, carrying values of public theater, and being implicitly associated with a celebration of its pioneers Jacques Copeau and Jean Vilar. Seen throughout eastern traditions, the empty stage is filled with spirituality and thus becomes a mental hereafter of the representation. Initially consequence of an economical imposition, naked stages and empty spaces have become luxurious spaces nowadays.

Beckett-we : em busca de uma poética do vazio

Brito, Luciana January 2016 (has links)
Em Busca de uma Poética do Vazio é uma pesquisa teórico-prática fomentada no Núcleo de Pesquisa Beckett-we – espaço de criação, desconstrução e de transbordamentos criativos a partir do universo de Samuel Beckett. Criado no ano de 2012 em Canoas/RS, o Núcleo dá voz aos aqui chamados esgotados, sujeitos contemporâneos que encontram em Beckett uma possibilidade de diálogo e caos. Os participantes não são atores, nem bailarinos, nem pesquisadores, são PIM: massa de corpos que não aguentam mais, unidos por uma pequena vida – extrato de existência em comum, que transcende as referências culturais, geográficas, étnicas ou históricas – PIM é plural. Este escrito é composto pelas vozes de esgotados, de Beckett, por minha voz, por fluxos de pensamento que me atravessaram durante a pesquisa e pela voz de referências significativas neste estudo: Gilles Deleuze, Suely Rolnik, Peter Pál Pelbart, dentre outros tantos. São analisadas performances criadas durante três anos do Núcleo, a partir dos textos: Todos os que Caem (Beckett - 1957) que se transformou em Eu, Ser Pulsante e Semivivo (2013) e Eleutheria (Beckett - 1947) metamorfoseado em sobre.vida (2015), Ensaio sobre a Liberdade (2014) e inspiração (2014). Buscando fazer um paralelo estrutural com a obra Como É (Beckett, 1961), que se passa em um buraco enlameado, no qual um personagem procura seu parceiro – PIM -, esta pesquisa se propõe a investigar os caminhos que foram inventados durante as práticas, visando se aproximar de uma possível metodologia que se encontra no vazio, buscando constantemente a instabilidade – seja através da tentativa de esvaziamento de referências, no diálogo com os esgotados que são desconhecedores de Beckett ou na renovação constante de PIM. No ato de esvaziar-se e se deixar atravessar pelas vozes e impulsos dos envolvidos, alimentados pelo universo beckettiano, esta dissertação sugere a figura do cartógrafo, desenvolvida por Rolnik, como um possível caminho para a prática criativa no vazio. / In Search of a Poetic of Emptiness is a theoretical-practical research fomented in the Núcleo de Pesquisa Beckett-we (Research Group Beckett-we) - space of creation, deconstruction and creative overflows based on the universe of Samuel Beckett. Created in the year of 2012 in Canoas/RS, the group gives voice to the ones here called the exhausted , contemporary subjects that find in Beckett a possibility of dialogue and chaos. The participants are not actors, nor dancers, nor researchers, they are PIM: a mass of bodies that cannot bear anymore, united by a little life - extract of a common existence, that transcends the cultural, geographical, ethnic or historical references - PIM is plural. This writing is composed by the voices of the exhausted, Beckett’s voice, my own voice, by flows of thoughts that crossed me while researching and by the voice of significative references in this study: Gilles Deleuze, Suely Rolnik, Peter Pál Pelbart, among so many others. Here we analyse performances created during the three years of the group, based on the texts: All that fall (Beckett - 1957) that became Eu, ser pulsante e semivivo [Me, pulsing being and halfalive (2013) and Eleutheria (Beckett - 1947) metamorphosed in sobre.vida [about.life] (2015), Ensaio sobre a Liberdade [Essay about Freedom] (2014) and inspiração [inspiration] (2014). Aiming to create a structural parallel with the work How it is (Beckett - 1961), that passes in a muddy hole, in which one character looks for his partner - PIM -, this research proposes itself to investigate the paths that were invented during the practices, aiming to approach a possible methodology found in the emptiness, searching constantly the instability - be it through the attempt of emptying references, in the dialogue with the exhausted who are unfamiliar with Beckett or in the constant renovation of PIM. In the act of emptying itself and letting it be crossed by the voices and impulses of the involved, fed by the beckettian universe, this dissertation suggests the figure of the cartographer, developed by Rolnik, as a possible path for the creative practice in the emptiness.
