Orientador: Maria de Lourdes da Silva Marques Ferreira / Banca: Jairo Aparecido Ayres / Banca: Maria José Sanches Marin / Resumo: O objetivo deste estudo foi compreender a percepção de enfermeiros sobre acolhimento na atenção básica dos municípios da região de Lins. Optou-se por uma abordagem qualitativa, na vertente da fenomenologia do fenômeno situado. Participaram do estudo 21 enfermeiros, e a entrevista foi estratégia utilizada para obtenção das descrições, por meio da questão norteadora: Qual a sua percepção sobre o acolhimento na Atenção Básica?. Foram elaboradas as seguintes categorias para análise: falta de investimento, os princípios do SUS, processo de trabalho e as etapas do acolhimento, ação multidisciplinar, integral e preventiva e postura acolhedora. Na análise identificou-se a necessidade de recursos humanos, físicos e de educação em saúde quanto à falta de investimento. No que se refere à relação dos princípios do SUS com o acolhimento, as diferentes formas de relacionamento do profissional com o usuário, resolubilidade e responsabilidade, envolvimento de gestores, acolhimento com parte integrante do programa nacional de humanização e integralidade nos serviços básicos de saúde. Quanto ao processo de trabalho do enfermeiro, destacou-se a forma de sistematizar a assistência, escuta das necessidades e forma de avaliar a vulnerabilidade. A ação multidisciplinar facilita as ações preventivas e de integralidade e promove orientação, aconselhamento e escuta qualificada. Quanto à postura acolhedora, envolve perfil, importância principalmente na porta de entrada e relacionamento empático. Considera-se que a fenomenologia possibilitou a compreensão da percepção dos enfermeiros sobre o acolhimento, por meio do desvelamento deste fenômeno na vivência destes sujeitos / Abstract: This study aimed at understanding nurses' perception of patient embracement in primary care in cities located in the region of Lins. A qualitative phenomenological approach was used. Twenty-one nurses participated in the study, and interviews were used for description collection by means of the guiding question: What is your perception of patient embracement in Primary Care?. The following categories were designed for analysis: lack of investment, SUS principles, the work process and embracement phases, multidisciplinary, full and preventive action and embracing attitude. The analysis identified the need for human, physical and health education resources in relation to lack of investment. With respect to the relationship of SUS principles with embracement, the various forms of relationship between professionals and users, resolubility and responsibility, managers' involvement, embracement as part of the national program for humanization and integrality in primary health care were addressed. Concerning nurses' work process, the forms for systematizing care, listening to needs and forms of evaluating vulnerability are noteworthy. Multidisciplinary action facilitates preventive and integrality actions and promotes qualified orientation, counseling and listening. As concerns the embracing attitude, it involves profile, importance particularly at entrance and empathic relationship. It is considered that phenomenology enabled us to understand nurses' perception concerning embracement by revealing such phenomenon in those subjects' experience / Resumen: El objetivo de este estudio fue comprender la percepción de enfermeros sobre la acogida en la atención básica de los municipios de la región de Lins, São Paulo, Brasil. Se optó por un enfoque cualitativo, en la vertiente de la fenomenología del fenómeno situado. Participaron en el estudio 21 enfermeros. La entrevista fue la estrategia utilizada para obtener las descripciones utilizando la pregunta guía: ¿Cuál es su percepción de la acogida en la Atención Básica? Se elaboraron las siguientes categorías para análisis: falta de inversión, los principios del SUS, proceso de trabajo y las etapas de la acogida, acción multidisciplinar, integral y preventiva y postura acogedora. En el análisis se identificó la necesidad de recursos humanos, físicos y de educación en salud en cuanto a la falta de inversión. En lo que se refiere a la relación de los principios del SUS con la acogida, se notaron las diferentes formas de relación del profesional con el usuario, la resolubilidad y responsabilidad, la participación de gestores, la acogida con parte integrante del programa nacional de humanización y la integralidad en los servicios básicos de salud. En cuanto al proceso de trabajo del enfermero, se destacaron la forma de sistematizar la asistencia, la escucha de las necesidades y la forma de evaluar la vulnerabilidad. La acción multidisciplinar facilita las acciones preventivas y de integralidad y promueve orientación, asesoría y escucha cualificada. Ya la postura acogedora involucra perfil, importante sobre todo a la puerta de ingreso, y una relación empática. Se considera que la fenomenología ha posibilitado la comprensión de la percepción de los enfermeros acerca de la acogida por medio del desvelo de este fenómeno en la vivencia de estos sujetos / Mestre

This thesis explores the profound influence of twentieth-century philosophy, and in particular the writings of phenomenologist Jan Patočka, on Wajdi Mouawad. While Mouawad's literary and dramatic sources have been widely discussed in recent scholarship, his philosophical sources have remained under-explored. Seeking to rectify this critical lacuna, the thesis addresses the key concepts Mouawad draws from the writings of Patočka including the central role of 'trace'. Through its investigation of Mouawad's engagement with Patočka, this thesis delineates Mouawad's philosophical and ethical aims. The thesis first considers the multiplicity of self in Mouawad's work, and its relationship to Patočka's 'shakenness' and 'care for the soul'. Chapter 1 investigates how an internal confrontation provoked by trace leads to a search for meaning as 'the soul discovers itself'. It analyses Mouawad's first play, Willy Protagoras enfermé dans les toilettes, and the more recent Seuls, to address the evolution of Mouawad's notion of self. Chapter 2 explores the significance of temporal awareness and time, as Patočka's three movements of human existence drive Mouawad's protagonists in their experience of shakenness. The plays discussed are Littoral, in which Mouawad first essayed non-linear time structures, and Incendies, which utilises a complex temporal oscillation. Chapter 3 turns to space as what arises through the individual's relationship to the world, focusing on Forêts and Ciels, two of Mouawad's most spatially complex productions. Chapter 4 examines two of Mouawad's recent plays, Temps and Sœurs, in its investigation of the role of testimony in developing the solidarity that emerges through the encounter with the other. The thesis then concludes with a discussion of how, and to what extent, Mouawad tackles his ambitions, particularly in their relation to trace.

This thesis examines a cluster of recent films that feature people of Maghrebi heritage and position corporeality as a site through which subjectivity and self-other relations are constituted and experienced. These films are set in and between the countries of the Maghreb, France and, to a lesser degree, Switzerland, and often adopt a sensual aesthetic that prioritises embodied knowledge, the interrelation of the senses and the material realities of emotional experience. However, despite the importance of the body in these films, no study to date has taken corporeality as its primary point of concern. Existing research in French and Francophone Studies focuses almost exclusively on the socio-political issues raised by the phenomenon of French “beur” cinema (films by and/or about young Maghrebi-French people), meaning that there has been no extended scholarly investigation into the importance of corporeality in recent films featuring people of Maghrebi heritage. Underpinned by an interdisciplinary theoretical framework that interweaves corporeal phenomenology with theological and feminist scholarship on the body from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), this thesis seeks to provide the first longitudinal and comparative account of how Maghrebi people of different genders, ethnicities, sexualities, ages and classes have been represented corporeally in post-millennial Maghrebi and French cinemas. Via its acute focus on images of people of Maghrebi heritage and how their representations show them engaging with their environments through their bodies, this thesis is the first to apply the recent turn to corporeal phenomenology in Film Studies and feminism to critical interrogations of Maghrebi identities in Maghrebi and French films since the new millennium.
