Through the analyses of the contents, we seek to identify the stereotypes for which the black people are still represented at these days. Considering the practices and symbolic dimension of racism, we began our dissertation examining the role of the State in the construction of racial inequalities and the process of black people resistance launch at various historical moments. In a second moment, based on Roger Chartie’s concepts of representation and the concept of social imagination elaborated by Baczko, we show how the ideal of racial bleaching and miscegenation contributed with the formation of a national identity substantiated on the racism. This research enabled us to elaborate a Weblog that offers workshops plans for teachers to have access to pedagogical tools that may contribute to a teaching practice focused on the valorization of ethnic-racial diversity. / Esta pesquisa tem como principal objetivo compreender o racismo na contemporaneidade, tomando como fontes, postagens racistas contra negros, veiculadas nas redes sociais Facebook e Twitter. Através da análise de conteúdo, buscamos identificar os estereótipos pelos quais o negro é representado ainda nos dias de hoje. Considerando a dimensão prática e simbólica do racismo, iniciamos a nossa dissertação examinando o papel do Estado na construção das desigualdades raciais e os processos de resistência negra empreendidos nos diversos momentos históricos. Num segundo momento, com base nos conceitos de representação de Roger Chartier (1991) e imaginário social formulado por Baczko (1985) mostramos como o ideal de branqueamento e mestiçagem, contribuíram para a formação de uma identidade nacional fundamentada pelo racismo. Essa pesquisa nos possibilitou a elaborar um Web Blog que disponibiliza planos de oficinas para que professores/as tenham acesso a ferramentas pedagógicas que poderão contribuir para uma prática docente voltada para a valorização da diversidade étnico-racial.

Social Potentials Of Pattern: Cedric Price

Ozkoc, Onur 01 September 2009 (has links) (PDF)
The aim of the thesis is to re-read the design process of Cedric Price&rsquo / s Fun Palace via &ldquo / patterns of utopia&rdquo / in order to understand and discuss how social imagination guides practice of architecture. Social imagination, as conceptualized in this thesis, denotes the intellectual activity of critically observing the social context and utilizing available resources in favor of new social possibilities. It can be argued that architectural practice is continuously subjected to political, cultural, and financial changes, the accumulation of which may easily bring forth changes in programmatic and physical aspects of space. The thesis claims that in order to keep in pace with the extents of change and variation in social experience, architectural production requires the integration of social imagination into the design process. Keeping this in mind, patterns of utopia are conceptualized as guidelines that help the integration of social imagination into the design process. In turn, Price&rsquo / s Fun Palace is re-read from the scope of patterns, in order to understand the relations between social dimension of the project and how this dimension is reflected onto the design of a flexible set of programs.

[en] HEY, HERE IS MY GRANDFATHER!: A STUDY OF THE PRETOS-VELHOS IN THE BRAZILIAN SOCIAL / [pt] É MEU AVÔ, ORA!: UM ESTUDO SOBRE PRETOS-VELHOS NO IMAGINÁRIO SOCIAL BRASILEIRO

SERGIO HENRIQUE NUNES PEREIRA 28 July 2006 (has links)
[pt] O presente trabalho apóia-se nos pressupostos da Psicologia da cultura que visa apreender as modalidades pelas quais se constrói e se expressa a pessoa em determinada cultura e, a partir desta observação, tenta compreender aspectos fundamentais da realidade humana (Augras, 1995). No bojo do imaginário sóciohistórico brasileiro, recorta o universo religioso referido como afro, focalizando os pretos-velhos, figuras de destaque neste campo. Um diálogo com autores das ciências sociais (Geertz, 1989; Berger, 1985; Bourdieu, 2004 et al.) põe em evidência as dinâmicas sócio-históricas que delineiam seus papéis, dentre estes, os de personagens de avôs e avós, junto dos quais os fiéis buscam conselhos e proteção. Propõe-se uma leitura desse tipo de relação, apoiada no conceito winnicottiano de holding. / [en] The present work is based on the presuppositions of the psychology of culture that it seeks to apprehend the modalities which is built and it shows the person in a certain culture and, starting from this observation, it tries to understand the main aspects of the human reality (Augras, 1995). The main idea about the social imaginary - historical brazilian, appears the religion universe known as afro, having as the main character the pretos-velhos. A dialogue with authors of the social-sciences (Geertz, 1989; Berger, 1985; Bourdieu, 2004 et al.) it puts in evidence the hystoricals-social dynamics that leads their roles, among these, the characters of grandfathers and grandmothers, that the followers look for pieces of advice and protection. It intends a reading about this kind of relationship, based on the concept winnicottian of holding.

Le film d’ascension à l’épreuve du genre cinématographique / Ascent movie to the test of film genre

Seguin, Gilles 13 December 2013 (has links)
Le présent mémoire de thèse a pour objet l'analyse d'une parenté formelle et symbolique susceptible de constituer en genre les œuvres cinématographiques particulières que nous nommons «films d'ascension». Cette volonté de mettre en évidence une structure narrative proche nous a amené à interroger la notion de genre cinématographique, ses caractéristiques, sa pertinence, ses limites. Les situations d'hybridation avec des genres tels que le mélodrame, le film policier, le film d'espionnage, par exemple, sont également évoquées. La singularité du «film d'ascension» nous a invité à examiner les contextes socio-historiques qui favorisèrent sa naissance et sa pérennisation malgré la disparition de son avatar historique qu'est le Bergfilm. D'autre part, la fonction sociale du film d'ascension a nécessité que nous nous penchions sur sa dimension symbolique et sur les ressorts mythiques qui le sous-tendent ainsi que sur son éventuelle adéquation avec les valeurs de représentation de l'imaginaire social des époques qu'il a traversées. Sont enfin abordées les questions que soulèvent le devenir, dans le contexte de l'appréhension nouvelle de la nature et des espaces naturels, d'un genre étroitement lié à la perception de la haute montagne. / The subject of this thesis is to analyze formal and symbolic relationship being liable to form into gender the specific movies that we call " ascent movies." This will to highlight a narrative structure closer that led us to question us about the notion of genre, its characteristics, its relevance, its limits. The Situations of hybridization with genders such as melodrama, thriller, spy movie, for example, are also discussed. The peculiarity of "ascent movie" invited us to examine the socio-historical contexts that favored his birth and his sustainability despite the disappearance of its historical avatar that is the Bergfilm. On the other hand, the social function of ascent movie has required that we consider her symbolic dimension and his underlying mythical spring that as well as her possible appropriateness with values representing the social imaginary of eras that he has come down through. At last, are addressed the issues raised by the evolution, in the context of the new understanding of nature and natural areas, of a genre closely related to the perception of the high mountain.

A História, seu ensino e sua aprendizagem: conhecimentos prévios e o pensar historicamente / History, its teaching and learning: prior knowledges and historical thinking

Helene, Daniel Vieira 08 April 2016 (has links)
Este trabalho investiga os sentidos atribuídos pelos alunos ao que estudam em História. A pesquisa tratou de um grupo de 170 estudantes que compuseram as turmas do Centro de Estudar Acaia Sagarana ao longo dos anos de 2011 a 2015. O Centro de Estudar Acaia Sagarana é um núcleo do Instituto Acaia, sediado em São Paulo (SP), que trabalha anualmente com um grupo de 36 alunos que têm o projeto de continuar estudando, egressos do Ensino Médio da rede pública estadual paulista. Nas aulas de História, uma das sequências didáticas, que ocorre na metade do ano letivo, trata do processo de Independência do Brasil. Em torno dela, pesquisamos os conhecimentos prévios dos alunos e as concepções com as quais eles chegam às aulas, tanto no que concerne especificamente à Independência, quanto em relação à formação territorial brasileira. Notamos que tais conhecimentos prévios derivam e participam dos imaginários sociais, que são aqui compreendidos como parte da realidade social e não como reflexo dela. Assim, na mesma medida em que a imagem da Independência que os alunos têm está muito relacionada, por exemplo, às pinturas de História do século XIX, sua compreensão da formação territorial brasileira se ancora na cartografia a que tiveram acesso, notadamente nas tradições da cartografia escolar. Se estes são os conhecimentos prévios dos alunos, como eles empreendem aprendizagens a partir daí? A pesquisa trata então de investigar as alterações nas maneiras de conceber a Independência e a História que os alunos evidenciam em suas produções nas aulas de História. Assim, este trabalho trata do ensino, mas fundamentalmente da aprendizagem em História, buscando compreender como os alunos constroem ideias cada vez mais complexas em torno do pensar historicamente. Ao fazê-lo, tratamos de um processo de elaboração curricular autoral, que toma o professor como profissional intelectual. / This study investigates the meanings that students attribute to what they study in History. We dealt with a group of 170 students of the Centro de Estudar Acaia Sagarana from 2011 to 2015. The Centro de Estudar Acaia Sagarana is a project held at the Instituto Acaia, in São Paulo (SP). Annually, it works with a group of 36 students who come from the public schools at the end of High School and have the project to continue studying. One of the didactic modules in the History course focuses Brazils Independence process. This study takes place approximately at the middle of the year. We investigated the students\' prior knowledge and the conceptions they bring to the classes, both regarding specifically the Independence process, and the Brazilian territorial formation. We noted that such prior knowledge derives from and participates in the social imagination, which is to be understood as part of the social reality rather than reflecting it. The image of the Independence the students have is closely related, for example, to nineteen centurys paintings of historical national themes. Also, their understanding of the Brazilian territorial formation is widely anchored in the maps they have had access to, most probably at school. If these are the students\' prior knowledge, how do they learn from there? We then come to investigate the changes in the ways of conceiving the Independence and History that students show in their texts produced in the History classes. This work deals with the teaching, but mainly with the learning of History, trying to understand how students build increasingly complex ideas in historical thinking. In doing so, we dealt with a process of authorial curriculum design, conceiving the teacher as an intellectual professional.

Philosophie et société : esquisse d'une contribution à la définition de la fonction sociale du philosophe / Philosophy and society : a contribution to the definition of the social function of the philosopher

Bethencourt, Julien 26 November 2011 (has links)
Ce travail de thèse est l'esquisse d'une contribution à la question suivante : comment faire de la philosophie aujourd'hui pour, non plus seulement interpréter le monde de différentes manières, mais aussi participer à le transformer ?Pour produire cette contribution, ce travail se propose de définir la fonction sociale de la pratique matérielle du philosophe dans les systèmes de production philosophiques, culturels et sociaux.C'est ainsi que ce travail définit avec les outils conceptuels de la théorie matérialiste historique de Marx, Engels et Althusser, et psychanalytique de Freud :- les pratiques déterminées de production discursives que le philosophe accomplit dans son système de production spécifique ;- la fonction culturelle particulière que ces pratiques ont pour les forces productives, les rapports et les systèmes de production des discours idéologiques dominants et (ou) émergeants, des discours savants des Sciences Humaines et Sociales et des Arts, Lettres et Langues, et des discours profanes ;- enfin, la fonction sociale générale de ces pratiques. / This doctorial dissertation is an attempt to contribute to the following question: how to practise philosophy today in order to not only interpret the world in various ways, but also to participate in changing it ?To do that this doctorial thesis aims to define the social function of the material practice of the philosopher in philosophical, cultural and social production systems. Relying on both the conceptual tools of Freudřs psychoanalytical theory and those of the theory of historical materialism as used by Marx, Engels and Althusser, this thesis specifies :- The practices of discursive production accomplished by the philosopher within the framework of his or her specific production system.- The cultural function these practices have for the productive forces, the relationships and the production systems of dominant and (or) emerging ideological discourses, scholarly discourses in the humanities and the arts, and discourses aimed at the general public.- Finally the general social function of these practices.

Les voix du saltimbanque et leur mise en scène dans L'homme qui rit de Victor Hugo

Marcotte, Viviane 07 1900 (has links)
Malgré sa disparition progressive dans l’espace public, le saltimbanque, objet constant de méfiance et de mépris du côté des élites sociales, connaît un regain dans l’art et la littérature du XIXe siècle. Publié en 1869, L'Homme qui rit de Victor Hugo offre une représentation particulièrement élaborée de cette figure. Le roman déploie un encyclopédisme et une polyphonie qui permettent de situer l’art du saltimbanque dans l’ensemble des théâtralisations de la parole publique qu’il passe en revue. Les deux personnages principaux, des bateleurs du nom de Gwynplaine et d’Ursus, sont conduits à franchir des frontières sociales et culturelles habituellement étanches : ils évoluent entre autres dans les villes, sur les places, sur les routes, dans les tribunaux, dans les caves pénales, dans les auberges et dans les chambres parlementaires. L’étude sociocritique de leurs parcours met en lumière le dialogue que le roman hugolien entretient avec l’imaginaire social du Second Empire, tout particulièrement à l’égard des débats sur la misère, sur le sens du pouvoir et sur la valeur du théâtre qui le traversent. / Although the mountebanks as progressively disappeared from the public space, led by the constant mistrust and the aversion of the elite society, the subject knows a renewal of popularity in art and literature of the 19th century. Published in 1869, L'Homme qui rit written by Victor Hugo offers an especially elaborated representation of that figure. The book unfolds an encyclopaedism and an impressive polyphony that help to narrow the art of the mountebanks into the entirety of the theatricalisation of the public voice. The two main characters, both street performers named Gwynplaine and Ursus, are led to step over social and cultural frontiers that are normally hermetic: they evolve inter alia in the cities, on the places, the roads, through court houses, jails, inns and parliament chambers. The sociocritic study of those different paths clarifies the dialogue between the novel and the spirit of the second empire’s society, particularly with regard to the debates on misery, the meaning of the authority and the value of the theatre which cross it.

[en] MIRRORS OF TIME: TRAVEL AND TRANSIENCE IN CINEMA NARRATIVES / [pt] ESPELHOS DO TEMPO: VIAGEM E TRANSITORIEDADE NAS NARRATIVAS CINEMATOGRÁFICAS

MARINA DE CASTRO FRID 24 August 2018 (has links)
[pt] A presente tese analisa as representações de viagens no tempo em um conjunto de produções da indústria cinematográfica dos Estados Unidos. O objetivo do estudo é compreender as concepções sobre o tempo elaboradas nos filmes selecionados e como estas se relacionam com o pensamento e as práticas do Ocidente moderno-contemporâneo. Especificamente, a investigação foca em filmes nos quais personagens rompem com a cronologia de uma sequência de eventos ou vivenciam determinados momentos repetidas vezes. A expressão viagem no tempo envolve significados diversos. Portanto, o esforço de pesquisa começa por entender suas possíveis definições. O primeiro capítulo faz uma revisão de algumas das vertentes teóricas sobre o tempo na tradição filosófica-científica ocidental. Já o segundo capítulo explora interpretações sobre o fenômeno do mito e, além disso, examina o histórico da ficção científica. Após delimitar e detalhar o material selecionado no terceiro capítulo, a tese se volta para a análise textual dos filmes. O exame do conjunto indica três grandes questões atreladas às viagens no tempo: as cosmologias e imagens do fim do mundo; a demarcação e conexão de diferentes tempos por meio de objetos; e a problematização das relações sociais, sobretudo, o parentesco. Cada uma dessas questões é analisada no quarto capítulo. A tese demonstra como os filmes traduzem o tempo em termos concretos através das trajetórias dos personagens e seus artefatos, que, ao desconhecerem a ordem histórica, geram paradoxos, encontros e desencontros na vida social. / [en] This thesis analyzes representations of time travel in an ensemble of productions from the United States film industry. The purpose of this study is to understand the notions of time portrayed in the selected films and how these are related to modern-contemporary Western thought and practices. Specifically, the investigation focuses on movie pictures in which characters break from the chronology of a sequence of events or experience the same moment repeatedly. The term time travel involves diverse meanings. Therefore, the research effort begins by understanding its possible definitions. The first chapter reviews some of the theoretical strands about time in Western philosophical and scientific traditions. The second chapter explores interpretations about the phenomenon of myth and the history of science fiction. After delimiting and describing the selected material in the third chapter, the thesis proceeds to the textual analysis of films. The examination of the ensemble indicates three main issues related to time travel: cosmologies and images of the end of the world; objects as markers of and connections between different temporalities, and the questioning of social relations, above all, kinship. Each one of these issues is analyzed in the fourth chapter. The thesis demonstrates how films translate time in concrete terms through the trajectories of characters and their artifacts that, unbounded by the historical order, engender paradoxes, meetings, and mismatches in social life.

La communauté du dehors : imaginaire social et représentations du crime au Québec (XIXe-XXe siècle)

Gagnon, Alex 09 1900 (has links)
La société québécoise a, comme toutes les sociétés, ses crimes et criminels légendaires. Or, si ces faits divers célèbres ont fait l’objet, dans les dernières décennies, de quelques reconstitutions historiographiques, on connaît beaucoup moins, en revanche, le mécanisme de leur légendarisation, le processus historique et culturel par lequel ils passent du « fait divers » au fait mémorable. C’est d’abord ce processus que s’attache à étudier cette thèse de doctorat, qui porte sur quatre crimes célèbres des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles (le meurtre du seigneur de Kamouraska [1839] ainsi que les crimes commis par « la Corriveau » [1763], par le « docteur l’Indienne » [1829] et par les « brigands du Cap-Rouge » [1834-1835]) : pour chacun de ces cas particuliers, l’analyse reconstitue la généalogie des représentations du crime et du criminel de manière à retracer la fabrication et l’évolution d’une mémoire collective. Celles-ci font chaque fois intervenir un système complexe de discours : au croisement entre les textes de presse, les récits issus de la tradition orale et les textes littéraires, l’imaginaire social fabrique, à partir de faits criminels ordinaires, de grandes figures antagoniques, incarnations du mal ou avatars du diable. Ce vaste processus d’antagonisation est en fait largement tributaire d’une époque (le XIXe siècle) où, dans les sociétés occidentales, le « crime » se trouve soudainement placé au cœur de toutes les préoccupations sociales et politiques : l’époque invente un véritable engouement littéraire pour le crime de même que tout un arsenal de savoirs spécialisés, d’idées nouvelles et de technologies destinées à connaître, mesurer et enrayer la criminalité. Dès les premières décennies du XIXe siècle, le phénomène se propage de ce côté-ci de l’Atlantique. Dans la foulée, les grands criminels qui marquent la mémoire collective sont appelés à devenir des ennemis imaginaires particulièrement rassembleurs : figures d’une altérité radicale, ils en viennent à constituer le repoussoir contre lequel, à partir du XIXe siècle, s’est en partie instituée la société québécoise. / Quebec society, like all societies, has its own legendary crimes and criminals. Yet if these famous faits divers have been recently made into historiographical re-enactments, the cultural and historic manner in which they are transformed from local news reports into national myths – what we call mecanisms of “ légendarisation ” –, is practically unknown. It is this mutation that this thesis examines : drawing from four famous crimes of the 18th and 19th centuries (the Seigneur of Kamouraska’s murder [1839] as well as the crimes committed by “ La Corriveau ” [1763], by the “ docteur l’Indienne ” [1829] and by the “ brigands du Cap-Rouge ” [1834-1835]), our analysis recollects their two-hundred-year-long genealogy into collective memory. Through this collective memory, a complex discourse system arises for each crime : by intertwining newspaper reports and stories from oral and written traditions, social imagination manufactures great antagonist figures, incarnations of evil and avatars of the devil from ordinary criminal acts. This vast antagonizing process is in fact dependent on a whole epoch – the 19th century – where, in the western world, “ crime ” was suddenly placed at the heart of all social and political preoccupations. This era seemingly created a literary craze for crime, as well as a whole arsenal of specialized notions, ideas and technologies designed to understand, mesure and eliminate criminality. During the Lower Canada period, the phenomenon spreads across this side of the Atlantic. In the wake of this movement, the great criminals who impacted the collective mind are made to become especially rallying imaginary enemies : figures of a radical otherness, they become the foil against which Quebec society, from the 19th century onwards, instituted itself.
