Vulgar Moon

Miller, Kelley Reno 12 1900 (has links)
The preface to this collection, "Speculation and Silence," argues that confessional poetry remains integral to contemporary poetics, though the implications of the term have changed since its "first-generation." Confessional poetry must not be dependent on simply the transmission of sensational details and the emotional consequences, but on poets' implementation of silence and restraint in both the diffusion of ideas and in the crafting of the piece. Vulgar Moon is a collection of poems in which I explore the implications of events ranging from erotic love and motherhood, to the devastation of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina, and Jewish history. In addition, these pieces explore the inner workings of the human psyche, both tender and malignant, and the inherent human need for absolution.

A inteligência cristalizada em diferentes contextos socioculturais / The crystallized intelligence in different sociocultural contexts

Débora Aguiar Soares da Cunha 25 March 2013 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Um primeiro objetivo desse estudo foi apresentar uma revisão sobre o que a literatura científica atual fala acerca da bateria de inteligência WISC-III. Os referenciais teóricos que embasam a construção dos testes de inteligência, tais como o modelo de Cattell- Horn Caroll e abordagens mais recentes foram explicitados. A partir das concepções de inteligência fluída (Gf) e cristalizada (Gc), buscou-se um dialógo com pressupostos básicos da psicologia evolucionista do desenvolvimento, considerando os planos de análise ontogenético e filogenético. Foram apresentados aspectos culturais que influenciam desenvolvimento do nosso percurso cognitivo. Teoricamente discutiu-se sobre as causas culturais que embasam o efeito Flynn, efeito de defasagem de escalas, buscando evidencias se nos subtestes da Escala Verbal da bateria WISC-III, adaptada ao contexto brasileiro, existiu sua incidência. Um segundo objetivo deste estudo foi identificar se haveria correlação entre variáveis tais como o uso de tecnologias, o acesso a mídias pelas crianças, práticas de criação e nos resultados obtidos em subtestes da escala WISC-III em crianças de 6 a 11 anos que residem no Rio de Janeiro. Participaram do estudo 25 crianças e seus respectivos responsáveis. Os resultados indicaram que aspectos do cuidado parental e maior acesso a recursos tecnológicos correlacionaram-se com os índices de QI na escala verbal da bateria WISC-III, sugerindo uma indissociável relação entre cultura e inteligência. Acredita-se que tais exposições podem contribuir para ampliar a compreensão da interpretação dos escores fornecidos pela escala WISC-III adaptada ao contexto brasileiro. / The first aim of this study was to present a review about what current scientific literature says about the WISC-III intelligence battery. Theoretical references which support the construction of the intelligence tests, such as Cattell- Horn Caroll model and recent approaches, were discussed. Based on the conception of fluid and crystallized (Gc) intelligence (Gf) we tried to establish a dialogue with basic assumptions of evolutionary psychology development considering the phylogenetic and ontogenetic perspectives. Considerations about cultural aspects that influence our cognitive walkthrough development. Theoretically it was discussed cultural aspects of the Flynn effect for discrepancy of a scale, seeking evidences if it was in fact used on the Verbal Scalesubtests of the WISC-III battery. The second purpose of this study was to indentify whether there is correlation between variables such as the use of technology, access to media by children and how parental practices affect the measurement of WISC-III scale subtests in children aged 6 to 11 years living in Rio de Janeiro. The study included 25 children and their respective guardians. The results indicated that aspects of parental care and greater access to technology resources correlated with IQ scores in the verbal scale of the WISC-III battery, suggesting an inseparable relationship between culture and intelligence. It is believed that such exposures may contribute to enhance the understanding of the interpretation of the scores provided by the WISC-III scale adapted to the Brazilian context.

A Chorus of Trees

Lyons, Renée Kathleen 08 1900 (has links)
This two-part thesis includes a critical preface and a collection of my poems. Using three poems-Louise Glück's "Lullaby," Bob Hicok's "Poem for My Mother's Hysterectomy," and Nick Flynn's "Memento Mori"-the critical preface examines how, in poetry, the transformation of a body negotiates trauma and triggers a conceptual shift, the creation and revision of identity, and the release of the duende's inspirational force. The collection of poetry that follows seeks to transfigure the body as a way to explore the nuanced traumas of human experience.
