A Constituição Orgânica em Aristóteles: a substância natural no seu mais elevado grau / Organic Constitution in Aristotle: a natural substance in its highest degree

Rodrigo Romão de Carvalho 17 April 2017 (has links)
A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo desenvolver um estudo acerca da noção aristotélica de constituição orgânica, no qual procurarei propor um exame da filosofia da natureza de Aristóteles referente ao aspecto, atribuído ao organismo, de ser substância natural no seu mais elevado grau, estabelecendo uma análise comparativa entre os compostos elementares, os compostos homogêneos inanimados e os compostos orgânicos. Para tanto, pretendo, primeiramente, promover uma análise a respeito do caráter substancial dos organismos vivos. Em seguida, delimitar uma investigação em torno dos tipos de composições naturais, levando em conta a maneira pela qual a necessidade natural estaria envolvida no processo constitutivo de tais composições. E, por fim, oferecer uma interpretação relativa ao capítulo 12 do livro IV dos Meteorológicos, a qual tem por base discernir a natureza formal associada, por um lado, às propriedades características dos corpos homogêneos em geral, considerados em si e por si mesmos, e, por outro, às propriedades características da constituição orgânica, de modo a precisar as diferenças entre elas. Penso que, com este estudo, também será possível compreender de um modo claro o motivo pelo qual, nesta concepção de natureza, toma-se o organismo vivo como o paradigma de substâncias (ousiai) naturais. / This research aims to develop a study on the aristotelian notion of organic constitution, which seek to propose an examination of the natural philosophy of Aristotle concerning the aspect, assigned to the body, to be natural substance in its highest degree, establishing an analysis comparative between elementary compounds, inanimate homoeomerous compounds and organic compounds. Therefore, I intend, first, to promote an analysis regarding the substantial nature of living organisms. Then delimit an investigation around the kinds of natural compositions, taking into account the way in which natural necessity would be involved in the constitutive process of such compositions. And finally, offer an interpretation relating to Chapter 12 of De Caelo IV, which relies on discerning the formal nature associated, on the one hand, the characteristic properties of homoeomerous bodies generally considered in themselves and for themselves, and, on the other hand, the characteristic properties of the organic constitution in order to clarify the differences between then. I think that, with this study, also will be possible understand in a clearly way the reason, in this conception of nature, it takes the living organism as the paradigm of natural substances (ousiai).

EXPANDED CHOREOGRAPHY : Shifting the agency of movement in The Artificial Nature Project and 69 positions

Invartsen, Mette January 2016 (has links)
Through two books and a series of video documentations of live performances Mette Ingvartsen makes choreography into a territory of physical, artistic and social experimentation. The Artificial Nature Series focusses on how relations between human and non-human agency can be explored and reconfigured through choreography. By investigating and creating a ‘nonhuman theater’ questions regarding material agency, ecology, natural disasters, the Anthropocene and non-subjective performativity are posed. The resulting reflections are closely related to the poetic principles utilized to create the performances, while also drawing connections to territories outside theater. By contrast, 69 positions inscribes itself into a history of human performance with afocus on nudity, sexuality and how the body historically has been a site for political struggles. By creating a guided tour through sexual performances – from the naked protest actions of the 1960’s, through an archive ofpersonal performances into a reflection on contemporary sexual practice – this solo work rethinks audience participation and proposes a notion of soft and social choreography. The contrasting performative strategiesarticulate a twofold notion of expanded choreography: on the one hand movement is extended beyond the human body by including the agency of nonhuman performers, and on the other hand, movement is expanded into animaginary and virtual space thanks to ‘language choreography’. / <p>LINKS</p><p>https://vimeo.com/164552586</p><p>https://vimeo.com/164558381</p>
