No. of bitstreams: 1 Wellington de Assis Silva.pdf: 1206773 bytes, checksum: d989c961684d0a0692f54651f704b0c3 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013-02-20 / The novels The Gospel According to Jesus Christ by José Saramago and The Gospel of Barrabas by Jose Roberto Torero and Marcus Aurelius Pimenta dialogue with the biblical text as a parody of the canonical gospels. The present study aims at analyzing the characters Mary of Magdala and Mary Magdalene, respectively, in order to check how close they are and at the same time how different they are from the figure of Magdalene from the Holy Bible as well as what differences and similarities exist between them. In order to achieve this objective, this study considers the studies of Comparative Literature, more precisely, Bakhtin s Dialogic Theory. Moreover, it enters into issues of multiple identities and gender in order to verify in what sense male and female coexist and complement each other and how the displacement of identities helps to construct the subject, regarding the self-consciousness which the characters give to one another through the contact with the other. / Os romances O Evangelho segundo Jesus Cristo, de José Saramago e O Evangelho de Barrabás, de José Roberto Torero e Marcus Aurelius Pimenta travam um diálogo com o texto bíblico, sendo paródia dos evangelhos canônicos. O presente estudo visa analisar as personagens Maria de Magdala e Maria Magdalena, respectivamente, almejando verificar em que sentido elas se aproximam e, ao mesmo tempo, se distanciam da figura da Madalena bíblica e o que há de semelhante e diferente entre elas. Para tal, parte dos estudos de Literatura Comparada, mais precisamente, da teoria do dialogismo bakhtiniano. Ademais, adentra em questões de identidades múltiplas e de gênero para verificar em que sentido o masculino e o feminino convivem e se complementam e de como o deslocamento das identidades auxilia no processo de construção do sujeito, no que tange à autoconsciência que as personagens dão umas às outras através do contato com o outro.

This work seeks to trace the influence of G.W. Leibniz on G.W.F. Hegel and the chapter called ‘Force and the Understanding’ in his Phänomenologie des Geistes. Using Leibniz’s theory of forces developed in texts such as Specimen Dynamicum, in which Leibniz argues against the Cartesians in favour of a ‘dynamic’ view on substances, it is here argued that the notion of biological life is of crucial importance for understanding Hegel’s transition from Consciousness to Self-Consciousness at the end of ‘Force and the Understanding’. For Leibniz, force is posited as that which gives unity to the monad, and this by functioning as their inner source of activity. This infusion of activity into the monad gives rise both to the physical world of bodies, as well as to the mental world of consciousnesses. Leibniz also sees force in direct analogy with biological life, as they share one characteristic feature, namely the capacity for ‘perception’ and ‘desire’. Consequently, organic life is for Leibniz what is most real in the world, uniting all bodies with a conscious soul. This move, I argue, is essential for understanding Hegel in ‘Force and the Understanding. More specifically, when Hegel’s consciousness discovers that, through the dialectic of force and law, organic life has become its new object, it also realizes that its faculty of the Understanding [Verstand] is related to its very own biological nature. The outer world of appearance, consciousness realizes, is thereby intimately connected to the inner of things, the so called supersensible world. Hegel thus regards consciousness of biological life as a sort of bridge that unites the Understanding with the concept, or rather, unites internal thinking with the outside world. This gives rise to Consciousness’ awareness of its own thinking, which is equivalent to it becoming a Self-consciousness.

Thesis (M.A. (Clinical Psychology)) --University of Limpopo, 2006 / The purpose of the research study is to investigate the relationship between body mass and self-concept among adolescent female university students. First year female students from three different Schools and Faculties at the University of Limpopo, Turfloop Campus participated in the study. They were 75 in number. The study has both a quantitative and qualitative aspects. The qualitative was used to complement the quantitative aspect. The Rosenberg Self-esteem Measure was used to measure self-esteem. For the qualitative aspect, a topic guide was used for the focus group discussion prepared and used for the focus group discussion. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and the Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation were used to analyse the quantitative data. Results show that there is a relationship between body mass and self-concept and that overweight participants tend to have a low self-esteem. This low self-esteem was perceived to be aggravated by a number of factors like the attitude of the media and the society. Participants who are overweight also indicated that they are limited in certain areas of their lives (e.g., sports) as a result of their body mass. They expressed mixed feelings and frustration when it comes to such areas of like. Support groups, life-skills programmes and psychotherapy should be made available and attainable for overweight female adolescents.

Has it ever occurred to you to wonder why a soldier would sacrifice his life by jumping on a bomb to save the rest of his brigade? Or why an individual in a gang might display respectable behavior when alone but swear and vandalize when in the group? The phenomenon of people getting pulled into crowds and adopting the group’s mentalities and behaviors has been recognized but not fully researched. However, it has been recorded in early literature and research that it is human nature to want to fit into a group, for example in Abraham Maslow’s (1943) paper, A Theory of Human Motivation, in which he proposed that the hierarchy of human needs includes a stage that emphasized an individual’s need to feel a sense of belonging.

Αντικείμενο της παρούσας έρευνας αποτελεί η μελέτη της έννοιας του εαυτού παιδιών σχολικής ηλικίας, καθώς και των παραγόντων που την επηρεάζουν. Η διερεύνηση της ψυχοσύνθεσης των παιδιών, σημαντικό μέρος της οποίας καταλαμβάνει η έρευνα της εικόνας που διατηρούν τα ίδια τα παιδιά για τον εαυτό τους, εξακολουθεί να είναι ένα επίκαιρο θέμα για γονείς, εκπαιδευτικούς, παιδοψυχολόγους και όλους όσους ασχολούνται με τη μελέτη της παιδικής προσωπικότητας. Ο «εαυτός», μια έννοια υποκειμενική, ταυτισμένη με τη φιλοσοφία, τη θρησκεία, την ψυχολογία και την κοινωνιολογία, είναι μια υποθετική κατασκευή, της οποίας οι ιδιότητες ερευνώνται συστηματικά τον τελευταίο αιώνα. Η πολυδιάστατη φύση της έννοιας του εαυτού και η εμπλοκή της στην ανάπτυξη- διαμόρφωση των περισσοτέρων διαστάσεων της ανθρώπινης προσωπικότητας, διατήρησε το ενδιαφέρον των ερευνητών, οι οποίοι επιχείρησαν να διατυπώσουν σχετικές με αυτήν θεωρίες, που να περιγράφουν τη φύση, τη δομή και τα χαρακτηριστικά της, όσο το δυνατόν ακριβέστερα. Μία από τις πιο δημοφιλείς κλίμακες μέτρησης της έννοιας του εαυτού, εξαιτίας της πληρότητας που παρουσιάζει θεωρητικά και της αντίστοιχης εφαρμογής της, είναι η Κλίμακα της Έννοιας του Εαυτού του Tennessee, έκδοση 2η (Tennessee Self-Concept Scale:2, TSCS:2, Fitts & Warren, 1996). Τα ερευνητικά και βιβλιογραφικά δεδομένα στοιχειοθετούν την πορεία της κλίμακας TSCS:2 στον χρόνο και πληρούν τις προϋποθέσεις της εγκυρότητας και της αξιοπιστίας. Το ερωτηματολόγιο αυτό αποτελεί το βασικό όργανο μέτρησης της παρούσας έρευνας. / -

Svarbiausios analizuotos sritys yra kalbos vartojimas, požiūris į kalbos vartojimą, tautinė ir tarminė savimonė. Iš įrašų, transkribuotų rišlių šnektų tekstų aprašytos fonetinės ypatybės, būdingos šnektoms. Apklausti ir įrašyti 28 skirtingų kartų pateikėjai: jaunesniosios, vidurinės, vyresniosios. Tyrimas parodė, kad tarminė kalba vyrauja bendraujant šeimoje, su pažįstamais, kaimynais, gyvūnais, galvojant, skaičiuojant. Kalbėjimas žiniasklaidoje, rašto kalba kaip tinkamesnė suvokiama lietuvių bendrinė kalba. Dainuoti derami abu kalbėjimo variantai. / The Bachelor's paper examines the sub-dialects of Skuodas District - Vižančiai, Kerviai, Šarkė, Luknės - in sociolinguistic perspective based on the obtained questionnaire data. The main analysed areas are the use of language, approach to the language use, and ethnic and dialectal self-consciousness. We have described the phonetic features characteristic of the sub-dialects from the records and transcribed cohesive texts of the sub-dialects. 28 informants of different generations: younger, middle, senior were interviewed and recorded. The research showed that the dialectal language prevailed in communication with family, friends, neighbours, animals, as well as when thinking, counting. The Lithuanian standard language is perceived as more appropriate for speaking in the media and for the written language. Both speech versions are proper for singing.
