No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2003-08-22 / This study describes and analyzes the speech of ten individuals, full legal ages and related to different social realities, that in the turning of the 20th century, converted to the pentecostalism in the municipal district of Fortaleza. We can assume that the conversion enables a re-significance before itself and the other, but, not even this, can manage the inherent indisposition to the human being. This way, that study aims in first instance to understand the sense that the researched individuals attribute to the religion after the conversion and like that, links with the suffering and with the dietary actions that constitute it. We prioritized the psychoanalytic theoretical referencial Freudian, tends in "the indisposition in the civilization" the conductive thread of that study. We still appropriated, of other authors from psychoanalysis field, as well as due to the size of the theme, we propose an interface with knowledges from sociology, anthropology and theology, culminating in a dialogue not pretentious in the attempt of understanding the religious experience in one of their largest elements, the subjectivity. So, by the mentioned Freudian work, we began our study thinking about the role of the religion in the life of the individuals, starting from the general objectives, that is, motivation to the conversion, warranties presented by the church and indicators of indisposition after conversion to the new credo. This way, the road trodden by us, allowed us to do an approach of how the religion acts in the psychic universe of the researched individuals, revealing this way, their longings, fears, frustrations, world vision, conquests, discoveries, charms and disillusions, that contemplate in their option and permanence in the religious universe. For this, we went through a methodology of qualitative base, where we used the techniques of the participant observation, semi-structured interview and conversation group with the purpose of reaching the proposed objectives. After compilation of the obtained data, we accomplished a theoretical interpretation work, in the attempt of understanding that individual, placing the occupied space for the religion in this process of re-significance of the subjectivity in the passage of the century. At the end of this study, we inferred that the religion, specifically the one of pentescontal denomination, possesses narrow likeness with the contemporary man's ideals and therefore they reveal high affirmation degree in what proposes, to know how to give to the individual sense for his existence amid a perverse society, but this sense is incomplete, unfinished and faulty, as it is permeated by an inherent indisposition to an entire civilization. Key words: Indisposition, religion, suffering and pentecostalism. / Este estudo descreve e analisa a fala de 10 sujeitos, maiores de idade e pertencentes a diferentes realidades sociais que, na virada do século XX, se converteram ao Pentecostalismo, no Município de Fortaleza. Partimos do pressuposto que a conversão possibilita uma re-significação diante de si e do outro, mas que, nem mesmo esta consegue dar conta do mal-estar inerente ao humano. Desse modo, esse estudo objetiva em primeira instância compreender o sentido que os sujeitos pesquisados atribuem à religião após a conversão e como esse relaciona-se com o sofrimento e com os atos dietéticos que o constituem. Priorizamos o referencial teórico psicanalítico freudiano, tendo em o mal-estar na civilização o fio condutor desse estudo. Apropriamo-nos, ainda, de outros autores do campo da Psicanálise, como em virtude da abrangência do tema, propomos uma interface com saberes da Sociologia, Antropologia e Teologia, culminando em um diálogo não pretensioso na tentativa de compreender a experiência religiosa em um de seus maiores elementos: a subjetividade. Assim, mediante a obra freudiana citada, iniciamos nosso estudo refletindo sobre o papel da religião na vida dos sujeitos, a partir dos objetivos gerais, isto é, motivação à conversão, garantias ofertadas pela igreja e indicadores de mal-estar após conversão ao novo credo. Desse modo, o caminho trilhado por nós nos permitiu fazer uma aproximação de como a religião atua no universo psíquico dos sujeitos pesquisados, desvelando, assim, seus anseios, medos, frustrações, visão de mundo, conquistas, descobertas, encantos e desencantos, que refletem em sua opção e permanência no universo religioso. Para tanto, recorremos a uma metodologia de base qualitativa, onde utilizamos as técnicas da observação participante, entrevista semi-estruturada e roda de conversa com a finalidade de alcançarmos os objetivos propostos. Após compilação dos dados, realizamos um trabalho de interpretação teórica, na tentativa de compreender esse sujeito, situando o espaço ocupado pela religião nesse processo de re-significação da subjetividade na passagem do século. Ao término desse estudo, inferimos que a religião, especificamente de denominação pentecostal, possui estreita afinidade com os ideais do homem contemporâneo e que, portanto revela alto grau de assertividade no que se propõe - a saber fornecer ao sujeito um sentido para sua existência em meio a uma sociedade perversa, mas sentido esse incompleto, inacabado e faltoso, na medida que é permeado por um mal-estar inerente a toda uma civilização.

This thesis is dedicated to a in depth study of the notion of pleasure such as it appears in Charles Baudelaire's Les Fleurs du Mal. Focusing upon a very restraint core of poems, the analysis unfurls according to the methodic tools provided by Michael Riffaterre, literary theorician and critic, in his Semiotics of poetry. Basing myself on a shrewd selection of texts, number of which were almost completely left out by baudelairean studies, my goal was to highlight the semiotical span owned by the different illustrations of pleasure in our poet's work. Weaving significant threads, first between signs and then between the text and its intertextuality, I achieved a detailed and global canvas of pleasure's descriptive system as it underlies Les Fleurs du Mal. The analysis defines pleasure's expression as a dichotomic construction. First opposing itself to reality, then to illusion and then to danger and others, it eventually builds itself against the notion of grief through bipolarization, caught into an insolvable cycle overhung by its evanescence. Interpretation allows us to draw interesting perspectives concerning the poet's epistemological choices.
