Para tanto, o corpus utilizado constituiu-se de fontes primárias recolhidas nas bibliotecas e acervos das cidades de Assis, Marília, Campinas e São Paulo, bem como nos meios eletrônicos (Internet) - nos sites de buscas e outros relacionados ao banco de dados virtuais de acervos afins. Os textos consultados, referentes a Hesse e sua obra, abrangem o período de 1935 até 2005. Trata-se, portanto, de averiguar em que circunstâncias ocorreu o encontro entre a literatura hesseana e os leitores brasileiros, representados pelos jornalistas e pesquisadores acadêmicos, destacando as tendências e as contribuições mais relevantes da crítica em meio a história da leitura de Hesse no Brasil. Como eixo norteador da pesquisa foi elaborada uma lista bibliográfica comentada que permite uma visão circunstanciada de todos os textos localizados. A pesquisa também consta de transcrição dos textos publicados em jornais e revistas informativos de acesso restrito. Ao reunir a bibliografia sobre o escritor, procurou-se ampliar o conhecimento sobre a literatura hesseana e possibilitar o surgimento de novos estudos. / This text is about collecting and thinking over Hermann Hesse's reception in Brazil seeking to verify the importance that's been given by the Brazilian critic to him, specially in the state of São Paulo. For this, the corpus used has been built from primary sources collected in the libraries and collection from the cities of Assis, Marilia, Campinas and São Paulo, as well as through electronic methods (internet) - in the sites of searching and others related to the virtual data of collections. The consulted texts, referring to Hesse and all his work, involve the period from 1935 to 2005. This is all about verifying then in which circumstances occurred this encounter between the Hesse's literature and the Brazilian readers, represented by the journalists and academic researchers emphasizing the tendencies and the most important contributions of the critic concerning the story of Hesse's reading in Brazil. As guiding axis of this research a bibliographic list with comments has been made allowing a circumstanced view concerning all the texts found. The research also contains transcription of the texts published in newspapers and magazines which have its access restricted. When reunited the bibliography about the writer, the knowledge concerning Hesse's literature has been increased making possible the appearance of new studies.

Esta obra aponta questões de ordem metodológica e epistemológica na teoria da estruturação de Anthony Giddens, problemas reconhecidos e debatidos por vários de seus comentadores. Seguindo pistas encontradas nos próprios textos de Giddens, ela analisa com maior detalhe alguns livros de Mary Hesse e Roy Bhaskar, em busca de elementos que ajudem numa reconstrução metodológica da teoria de Giddens. Finalmente, ela argumenta em favor de uma maior atenção ao modelo de redes de Hesse, como uma ferramenta muito mais fértil para a análise de Giddens do que o realismo crítico de Bhaskar, para tentarmos resolver os dilemas que Giddens enfrenta. Como anexo, temos traduções de vários textos dos comentaristas mais importantes de Giddens, e também dois artigos do próprio, inéditos em português. / This work raises methodological and epistemological questions regarding Anthony Giddens theory of structuration, issues that have been acknowledged and debated by several of his critics. Following clues found in Giddens own texts, it analyses more deeply some works by Mary Hesse and Roy Bhaskar, searching for elements that would help with a methodological reconstruction of Giddens theory. Finally, it argues for greater attention towards Hesses network model, as a much more fruitful tool for analyzing Giddens than Bhaskars critical realism, in order to attempt to solve the dilemmas that Giddens faces. Also included are translations of several articles written by Giddens most important critics, and two papers by Giddens himself, previously unavailable in Portuguese.

Quelles valeurs et fonctions à la fois sociales, éthiques et poétiques peuvent être attribuées à la création artistique ? Dans les romans étudiés – 'Rosshalde' et 'Le Dernier Eté de Klingsor' de H.Hesse, 'Jean-Christophe' de R. Rolland, L’'Arc-En-Ciel' et 'Femmes amoureuses' de D.H. Lawrence, la création apparaît comme le moyen privilégié de résister à la mécanisation de la société industrielle et au désenchantement moderne, bien plus, elle vise à repenser les fondements du monde occidental. Un rôle civilisateur et régénérateur est attribué à l’art. Cette idée conduit à aborder différentes conceptions du sujet et de l’identité de l’artiste : la création permettrait de concilier harmonieusement le singulier et l’universel, et l’artiste incarnerait volontiers une forme de philosophe, de héros, ou de prophète, ayant un rapport ambivalent à la communauté. De plus, ces romans empruntent des procédés d’écriture et de composition à la musique et à la peinture, tout en laissant également la part belle aux dialogues mettant en oeuvre des développements conceptuels. Le roman, en intégrant des raisonnements à la fiction, ne fixe pas d’interprétation. Il critique le dogmatisme et valorise une pensée dynamique et constamment liée à l’expérience. / Which values and functions, social, ethical as well as poetic, can be attached to artistic creation ? In the novels we studied - 'Rosshalde' and 'Klingsor’s Last Summer' by H.Hesse, 'Jean-Christophe' by R.Rolland, The 'Rainbow' and 'Women in Love' by D.H. Lawrence, creation seems to be the preferred means to resist the mechanization of the industrial society and to hold out against modern disillusionment, even more, it aims at rethinking the foundations of the western world. A civilizing and regenerating role is attributed to art. That leads us to approach different conceptions of the subject and of the identity of the artist : creation as a way to reconcile harmoniously the singular with the universal, and the artist as the reincarnation of a form of philosophy, of a hero, or of a prophet, having ambivalent relations with the community. Moreover, these novels adopt methods of writing and composition from music and painting, but they also give a lot of importance to dialogues making use of conceptual developments. By integrating reasoning to fiction, the novel does not fix the interpretation. It criticizes dogmatism and enhances dynamic thinking constantly linked to experience.

Profondeur et complexité de la pensée poétique d’Hermann Hesse ont souvent échappé à une réception critique induite en erreur par la limpidité d’une écriture qui, aux antipodes de « la consternation » requise dans l’après-guerre, obéit à une poétique de l’allégresse, de la Heiterkeit. Identification et analyse de cette poétique exigent d’adopter la perspective active de Hesse, celle de lecteur-créateur, afin de mieux le suivre dans sa libération progressive de divers cadres de pensée philosophico-poétiques. Hesse se démarque d’abord, lors d’une première crise, des canons weimariens de la Heiterkeit puis, dans une seconde crise, de l’esthétique créatrice nietzschéenne de l’allégresse. Confronté à l’urgence de la situation historique, Hesse trouve alors à la fin des années vingt sa propre poétique de résistance aux idéologies totalitaires, notamment au national-socialisme : une poétique de l’allégresse originale qui, utopique et initiatique, n’évacue pas le non-rationnel de l’esprit, comme Thomas Mann à la même époque. L’auteur parvient, en incluant le non-rationnel dans le fondement historique et anthropologique qu’il retire de sa lecture de Jacob Burckhardt, à éviter les écueils d’une autre poétique se dédiant au même moment au combat historique et transhistorique contre le fascisme – la poétique benjamienne de l’aura et de « l’image dialectique ». La poétique hesséenne de l’allégresse sera initiation par traces de témoignages à une lecture-écriture allégoricienne faisant participer l’individu à une communication authentique, créatrice de vrai et de joie dans le partage culturel d’une parole poétique originaire où, avec l’autre, l’homme advient historiquement à lui-même. / Depth and complexity of Hermann Hesse’s poetical thinking have been foregone by many of his critics misled by the limpidity of a prosa which, displaying his concept of serene joy (Heiterkeit), dissented from « the consternation» litterature that prevailed after the war. To identify and to analyse this poetics we need to adopt Hesse’s active perspective of reader-creator while following his progressive liberation from different kinds of philosophical and poetical frames: in a first crisis, he struggles himself free of the Heiterkeit canons of the Weimar Classics whereas the second crisis enables him to break the spell of Nietzsche’s creative poetics of joy. Urged by the historical context of the late twenties, Hesse creates his own poetics of resistance against totalitarian ideologies, in particular against National Socialism: an utopian and initiatory poetics of joy, that does not dismiss the non-rational of the mind like does Thomas Mann. Hesse’s poetics is based on the historical and anthropological foundations originating from his reading of Jacob Burckhardt’s works. It therefore prevents itself from the pitfalls of another poetics dedicated to the historical and transhistorical fighting against fascism, i.e. Walter Benjamin’s poetics of the aura and the “dialectical image”. Hesse’s poetics of joy is an initiation, through traces of testimony, towards an allegorical reading-writing which allows the individual to take part in an authentic communication that creates both truth and joy by the cultural sharing of an original poetical language through which the human being is coming, together with the other, historically to himself.

The sculpture of German-born American artist, Eva Hesse (1936-1970), presents many conservation challenges. Hesse’s experimentations with latex and fiberglass created stunningly innovative works of art in the late 1960s bringing these unorthodox materials into the world of fine art; but now these materials are creating major conservation problems. Her artwork is an extreme example of the conservation challenges of contemporary art. This thesis examines the challenges surrounding the conservation and replication of Eva Hesse’s large-scale latex and fiberglass sculptures. The latex and fiberglass materials that captivated Hesse are compromising the structural integrity of her large-scale sculptures today. Hesse’s art forces conservators to establish conservation practices specific to modern and contemporary art. Although replication pushes conservators to re-examine their usual practices and violates the standard notion of minimal intervention, the replication of Hesse’s sculptural works is necessary to represent her artistic vision.

Master of Visual Arts / The title Normal What refers to a group of paintings that emerged from my Masters of Visual Arts 2004/05 studio project. Individual paintings are chronological self portrait reflecting upon my own experiences and those in the wider community who at some point in their lives have had to endure the struggles, and negative stigma that is so often attached to those who have become marginalised and detached from mainstream society. People found in this category include the disabled, homeless, unemployed, and those with addiction problems. Each painting bears a close connection with techniques associated with abstract expressionist painting. This radiates through the vast expanse of drips, stains and explosions which appear to suffocate the paintings delicate monochrome surface. Strong references to Kristeva’s theory on Abjection arrive through the aggressive and violent outbursts of paint that evoke an atmosphere of symbolic horror, personal dysfunction and social oppression. This emerges out of the shadows and private spaces of the painting’s domestic interior. Deep emotional, psychological, sociological sensitivities are raised throughout my studio practice. Combined with a series of unresolved tensions, and questions surrounding normality run deep a consequence of society’s push for normality are being felt most acutely by those effected by this form of sociology. The ideas raised through my studio project had a profound influence on the research being conducted for the dissertation. Kristeva’s theory on Abjection, along side the practices of Eva Hesse, Barnett Newman, Agnes Martin emerged from a group of highly emotional abstract paintings. This strengthened the connection between the studio project and the dissertation. Aimed at deepening a personal understanding an commitment to researching the subject of normality and how it could be successfully articulated through a visual narrative.
