Beautiful Secrets

January 2017 (has links)
abstract: "beautiful secrets," a movement art piece engaging the audience in the art-making, exists in the in-between, an indeterminable place, fluid like the water of Kiwanis Lake. The performers sang, danced and built an architectural environment with the help of the audience to create a transformational place betwixt here and there, day and night, death and life; an in-between land where the language is mystical and symbolic, and the water of Kiwanis Lake served as a symbol of transformation. Beneath the art was a method called Somatic Yoga Dance in which the performers trained in preparation for the performance. Below the method was a blessing in which beautiful secrets took root --- a prayer for peace. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Dance 2017

Coleção Desejos por Jum Nakao: a linguagem do ritual na moda

Morelli, Graziela January 2006 (has links)
In June 2004, fashion designer Jum Nakao presented a fashion show where, not worried on showing his commercial collection to buyers and press, caused emotion to all te present when asked, at the end of the show, to his models to tear in pieces their paper clothes on the runway. The fashion shows, very common nowadays, reflect the dynamic of fashion. The attention, the spectacle, the ephemerity and the image, are some of the elements that compose these shows. Studying fashion as a complex cultural phenomenon of the contemporary society lets us understand beyond the periodical changes on the clothes used by people on the streets or the models on the runways. Having the work of Jum Nakao as a reference, the objective of this paper is to watch the fashion show as a ritual that manifests simbolic actions, representing the vision of the designer's world, awakening the desire of the spectator and mixing the collective time to the individual time. While some authors suggest that ritual exists only in the simple societies, this work searches at the anthropology classic works of writers like Arnold Van Gennep and Victor Turner, for elements that caracterize the ritual and relates them to the fashion show, bringing it to the contemporary society. Watching the fashion event as a manifestation where is shown more than simply designers creations, the codes and meanings of the rituals are identified / Submitted by Jovina Laurentino Raimundo (jovina.raimundo@unisul.br) on 2018-01-17T16:21:55Z No. of bitstreams: 1 85966_Graziela.pdf: 5051714 bytes, checksum: 2d37a4824f0df1b658cf82b2c3aa8a54 (MD5) / Approved for entry into archive by Gheovana Figueiredo (gheovana.figueiredo@unisul.br) on 2018-01-17T17:07:35Z (GMT) No. of bitstreams: 1 85966_Graziela.pdf: 5051714 bytes, checksum: 2d37a4824f0df1b658cf82b2c3aa8a54 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2018-01-17T17:07:35Z (GMT).

Os desfiles, muito presentes na sociedade atual, refletem a dinâmica da moda. A atenção, o espetáculo, a efemeridade, a imagem são alguns dos elementos que constituintes destes desfiles. Estudar a moda como um fenômeno cultural complexo da sociedade contemporânea possibilita-nos entendê-la além das mudanças periódicas de roupas usadas pelas pessoas na rua ou por modelos nas passarelas. Tendo como referência a obra de Jum Nakao, o objetivo deste trabalho é observar o desfile enquanto um ritual que manifesta ações simbólicas, representando a visão de mundo do estilista, despertando o desejo do espectador e misturando o tempo coletivo ao tempo individual. Enquanto alguns autores sugerem que o ritual só existe nas sociedades não complexas, este trabalho busca nos clássicos trabalhos da antropologia como Arnold Van Gennep e Victor Turner, os elementos que caracterizam o ritual e os relaciona ao desfile, trazendo-o para a sociedade contemporânea. Observando o evento de moda como uma manifestação onde se mostra muito mais do que simplesmente as criações do estilista, identifica-se códigos e significados presentes em rituais

Blades, blood and bandages : a qualitative investigation of self-injury

McShane, Theresa January 2008 (has links)
The perspective of the individual who self-injures has been under-represented in research. This study places the meaning of self-injury for these individuals at its core. People who self-injure can offer comprehensive and discerning insights into the behaviour. This study confirms the findings of earlier research that self-injury is often rooted in processes of suffering. The social and personal cost experienced by people who self-injure can be high, not only in direct relation to the self-injury itself, but also regarding the legacy of the processes of suffering in general from which self-injury emerged. In this study the processes of suffering, ritual and stigma are explored. Using a qualitative approach, data was collected from 25 self-injuring participants though semi-structured interviews. Interview data was supplemented by diaries and collections of poetry. The main findings from the study are that self-injury can emerge as an action scheme of escape from the processes of suffering. It is a highly stigmatised behaviour which can also develop into an extremely ritualised practice involving a complexity of meanings regarding the surroundings, the apparatus and the process. The self-injury ritual can be viewed as an extreme but therapeutic workout for the five senses of the human body.

La entrada de José de San Martín en Lima y la proclamación del 28 de julio: la negociación simbólica de la transición

Ortemberg, Pablo 12 April 2018 (has links)
Este trabajo describe las circunstancias de la entrada de José de San Martín en Lima y la posterior proclamación de la independencia el 28 de julio de 1821, con el objetivo de contribuir a la reflexión teórica sobre el ritual político entendido como un dispositivo de pactos. Para ello, analiza las conexiones de este evento con la tradición del recibimiento de virreyes y proclamaciones reales en todas sus fases, examina el problema de la construcción simbólica de la autoridad suprema y vincula esto último a la empresa más amplia de regeneración política e identitaria conducida en el plano simbólico por el «libertador-protector».

Ritual and Consumption in the Construction of Public Spaces during the Late Archaic Period: The Case of Cerro Lampay Site / Consumo y ritual en la construcción de espacios públicos para el Periodo Arcaico Tardío: el caso de Cerro Lampay

Vega-Centeno, Rafael 10 April 2018 (has links)
Excavations at the site of Cerro Lampay allow evaluation of the role of ritual activities, such as feasting, in the organization of construction during the late Archaic Period. Excavations have provided a detailed documentation of building procedures that ended in the entombment of architectural compounds. Particularly important is that there was not a single, large-scale construction event, but several small-scale events that were accompanied by processing and consumption activities. This pattern strongly suggests a permanent reinforcement of ties and commitments between groups through feasting, which was as a required activity in order to complete the construction of public works. This scenario supports the idea of emerging leadership capable of mobilizing labor for the construction requirements. Nevertheless, the reliance on feasting as ritual practices, and the small scale of these events, suggests a limited power capacity and a weakly formalized authority, which needed to be constantly reinforced through the inferred ritual practices. / Las excavaciones realizadas en el sitio de Cerro Lampay, ubicado en el valle de Fortaleza, costa norcentral del Perú, permiten evaluar el rol de actividades, como los festines, en la organización de labores constructivas dentro del contexto del Periodo Arcaico Tardío. Estas excavaciones permitieron obtener un registro detallado de un proceso constructivo que concluyó con el "enterramiento" de los conjuntos arquitectónicos. Algo notorio es que la construcción no se dio en un solo evento, sino a lo largo de varios de pequeña escala antecedidos por actividades de procesamiento y consumo de alimentos. Este patrón de comportamiento sugiere que las actividades de consumo eran requeridas para la conducción de la construcción, probablemente como un mecanismo de refuerzo de compromisos establecidos entre el anfitrión del acto de consumo y quienes realizarían la construcción. Este escenario plantea la existencia de liderazgos emergentes, capaces de movilizar mano de obra para construcción. Sin embargo, el recurso de convocatoria a "festines" como prácticas ritualizadas y la pequeña escala de dichos eventos sugieren una capacidad de poder y convocatoria limitada y una autoridad no formalizada que requerirían de un reforzamiento constante por medio de las prácticas inferidas.

Os Quilombolas do Veiga e o SÃo GonÃalo:memÃria e identidade na festa e devoÃÃo a SÃo GonÃalo no SÃtio Veiga

Daniele Cristine Gadelha Moreno 00 December 2014 (has links)
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / O presente trabalho busca analisar o papel que a danÃa de SÃo GonÃalo, na comunidade quilombola SÃtio Veiga, desempenha no processo de construÃÃo da identidade Ãtnica deste grupo social. A comunidade SÃtio Veiga à um agrupamento reconhecido enquanto âcomunidade remanescente de quilombosâ, localizado em QuixadÃ, sertÃo central, cujo vÃnculo desse agrupamento com o territÃrio remete aos descendentes das populaÃÃes negras escravizadas no CearÃ. Dessa forma, a reivindicaÃÃo em torno da titularidade do territÃrio envolve a assunÃÃo de uma categoria normatizada pelo direito, inserida no texto constitucional. A metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa de campo, atravÃs da memÃria local, acionada em contextos de reivindicaÃÃes identitÃrias que remetem a uma ligaÃÃo com o passado, com a origem comum. Logo, atravÃs do ritual, sÃo elaboradas narrativas sobre a descendÃncia dessa coletividade, suas origens, sua ancestralidade que remete ao perÃodo escravocrata. O foco da pesquisa foi compreender os caminhos que este ritual percorreu para se construir em um elemento de pertencimento Ãtnico, um diacrÃtico situacional, que serà acionado no processo de reivindicaÃÃo de seu territÃrio. Nesse processo de afirmaÃÃo identitÃria, os agentes externos (ONGs, agentes pÃblicos e outras instituiÃÃes) contribuÃram em diferentes contextos, mas tambÃm foram relaÃÃes marcadas por conflitos e tensÃes.

A Jurema foi observada entre o grupo indígena Atikum, terreiros de Xangô e centros de Umbanda no Recife com a intenção de estabelecer possíveis correspondências ou dissemelhanças do ritual, a forma como ele é vivenciado e sua representação religiosa. Partindo do trabalho etnográfico, o direcionamento metodológico do campo se deu através da observação direta dos rituais e descrição. Com este procedimento consegui estabelecer o perfil diferenciado do culto da Jurema nas três condições consideradas.

Encontramos indícios desta aproximação nos Happenings, na Performance Art, e nos trabalhos de encenadores como Grotowski, Robert Wilson e Richard Foreman. A aproximação da performance artística com o ritual ocorre principalmente em relação à criação processual, que se desdobra em uma cena de intensidades corporais e fluxos subjetivos. São processos temporais que intercalam círculo e devir, lembrança e esquecimento. No ritual, o corpo do performer encontra-se na intersecção de diversos componentes subjetivos que são re-articulados e re-significados nos eventos. Releva-se a criação coletiva, as corporeidades e a constelação de elementos da memória que irão compor espaços subjetivos de ação. Processo de auto-reflexão, o universo imaginário do ritual é o das mitologias pessoais e coletivas. Ao mesmo tempo, no evento ritual vivencia-se um espaço-tempo liminar, onde novas possibilidades existenciais estão sendo elaboradas. Evento destacado do cotidiano, o corpo alcança devires, metamorfoseando-se em outros seres. Subverte, deste modo, a lógica ordinária e o controle cotidiano, indo de encontro às potencias do inconsciente e a criatividade imanente / Abstract: Not informed / Mestrado / Mestre em Artes

The lesser antiphons of the Milanese office : a thematic classification and analysis

Barrington-Foote, Kevin Randle January 1973 (has links)
The repertory of music known as Milanese chant: has only recently attracted the attention of musicologists. In the early part of this century scholars concerned themselves with such aspects of the Milanese rite as its origins, the structure of the liturgy, and paleographic difficulties. The music itself, however, continued to be discussed merely in general terms or in relation to Gregorian melodies. It is only within the last few decades that stylistic analyses of the music have begun to penetrate this relatively unexplored field. This study is principally concerned with the lesser antiphons of the Milanese office. The Introduction summarizes the results of past research into the Milanese rite and presents general information concerning the antiphons. Part I of the thesis presents the Thematic Classification and a discussion of the method employed; the three chapters of Part II deal with the analysis of the melodies. It has been suggested that many of the Milanese antiphons can be grouped together on the basis of common melodic material. Such a classification of the Gregorian antiphons had appeared at the beginning of this century, but no attempt has been made to apply a similar procedure to the Milanese repertory, even though the more stable Milanese tradition would appear to be better suited for such an anlysis than the Gregorian with its numerous and often conflicting sources. The psalter antiphons, the simplest and most numerous of the Milanese office antiphons, have responded readily to a Thematic Classification. The great majority of over seven hundred chants can be reduced to thirty common melodies or "Themes." Many of these Themes can be shown to be related, and the implication is that there were originally only a very few melodies from which other chants were developed. In fact, there would appear to be evidence to show that the antiphons developed, through a process of gradual elaboration from simple reciting-tones. It can be demonstrated that the melodies of the antiphons with longer texts were expanded by the use of a limited number of compositional devices. An examination of the cadences and finals reveals an economy and simplicity which would seem to speak for the antiquity of the Milanese repertory. / Arts, Faculty of / Music, School of / Graduate
