O estudo partiu da constatação de que graças à atriz, as duas metades do imaginário feminino pirandelliano, a mãe santa e a prostituta, passam a conviver em uma mesma imagem de mulher, para chegar até a imagem da vamp virtuosa: uma criatura eroticamente fascinante, mas sexualmente inacessível. Percorrendo a argumentação crítica atual, constatou-se que a produção tardia do escritor é o resultado de um violento intercâmbio, de uma forte influência mútua entre estímulos biográficos e resultado artístico. Tendo isto em vista, buscou-se reconstruir, por meio da crônica e da crítica teatral da época, o estilo da performer Marta Abba, e sua definição como atriz pirandelliana. Tomando como base as propostas teóricas do assim denominado Teatro Novo, suas relações com o idealismo das primeiras vanguardas, e, principalmente, confrontando o epistolário Pirandello-Abba com a sua produção teatral, justifica-se a perspectiva autobiográfica presente no teatro de Pirandello do último período. Ao escrever para a atriz, o dramaturgo não poderia deixar de ter em mente a qualidade interpretativa de sua musa inspiradora, esta excepcional intérprete que foi a co-autora do novo perfil feminino desenvolvido pelo autor e, por outro lado, ao individualizar em Marta Abba as criaturas que ele já havia imaginado anteriormente, Pirandello se vê sob o signo de uma ¿predestinação¿: a atração física do Maestro por sua intérprete, ¿filha de sua arte¿, recupera um antigo fantasma, o tema tabu da escritura pirandelliana: o ¿fascínio paterno¿, incestuoso. Pirandello constrói assim um personagem feminino plural e ambíguo, em consonância com os maiores ícones do cinema dos anos trinta, Greta Garbo e Marlene Dietrich, capaz de absorver o estilo ¿camaleônico¿ e contraditório de interpretar de Marta Abba, ao mesmo tempo em que é capaz de traduzir e incorporar seu próprio tormento interior. / Abstract: This thesis presents an analysis of the plays of Luigi Pirandello in the final ten years of his life (1926-1936), especially the dramas written for actress Marta Abba, consistent with the state-of-art research on the playwright. Our starting point was the verification that, thanks to the actress, the two halves of Pirandellian feminine imagination - the holy mother and the prostitute ¿ came to cohabitate in the same female image, that of the virtuous vamp: an erotically enchanted creature, although sexually unattainable. Reviewing the current criticism, we verified that the writer's late production is the result of a violent interaction and mutual influence between biographic stimulus and artistic concerns.On this basis, we reconstruct, via the chronicle and theatrical criticism of the period, the performer Marta Abba's style and her definition as the Pirandellian actress par excellence. Having as foundation the theoretical propositions of the so-called New Theater, its relationships to the utopianism of the early avant-gardes, and opposing the correspondence between Pirandello and Abba with his own theatrical productions, we believe that the presence of anautobiographical perspective in the last period of Pirandello's theatre is justified. When writing for the actress, the playwright certainly had the interpretation of his inspiring muse in mind, the exceptionally talented Marta Abba as the co-author of the new feminine profile developed by the author. On the other hand, by individualizing in Marta Abba all the female creatures, the playwright sees himself under a sign of predestination: Marta's attractive power over the Master, "his art's daughter", recovers an old phantom, the taboo-theme of Pirandello writing: the incestuous, fatherly fascination. Thus, Pirandello creates an ambiguous feminine profile, related to the major movies icons of the '30s - Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich - pluralistic enough to assimilate theever-changing, contradictory style of the interpreter Marta Abba, translating and incorporating, at the same time, his own inner torment. / Doutorado / Literatura e Outras Produções Culturais / Doutor em Teoria e História Literária

A presente tese, A forma confessional nos Diários de Miguel Torga, analisa os três diários iniciais do autor, escritos durante os anos de 1932 a 1946 e publicados entre 1941 e 1946. O recorte realizado procura, na primeira seção, mostrar o processo de constituição de Miguel Torga como autor intimista, que se deu na primeira metade do século passado, por meio dos debates do movimento presencista e da leitura intensa de autores confessionais. Esse percurso formativo foi fundamental para que pudesse elaborar um diário extremamente original, que soube preservar, no entanto, o lastro da tradição literária europeia, como demonstramos na segunda seção. Na seção final, realizamos a leitura imanente do Diário a fim de identificar e discutir as bem sucedidas estratégias de que Miguel Torga lançou mão para construir um texto em que sujeito, forma literária e vida social se entrelaçam profundamente. / The present thesis, The confessional form in the Diaries of Miguel Torga, analyses the authors three initial diaries, written during the years of 1932 and 1946 and published between 1941 and 1946. This work seeks to demonstrate, in the first section, the process by which Miguel Torga became an intimist author in the first half of the last century, through the debates conducted by the presencista movement and the extensive reading of confessional authors. As we demonstrate in the second section, that formative trajectory was fundamental for him to get to elaborate a highly original diary, which yet preserves the grounding of the literary European tradition. In the final section, we make an immanent reading of the Diary so to identify and discuss the successful strategies used by Miguel Torga in order to build a text in which subject, literary form and social life are intensely interwoven.

Considerado como um gênero discursivo - que se materializa na forma de narrativa autobiográfica (PASSEGGI, 2003), o Memorial de Formação é constituído por rememorações dos processos históricos e socioculturais vividos pelos seus autores em diferentes contextos, principalmente o formativo, aliadas a uma discussão teórica estudada na academia (neste caso, leitura e/ou escrita). Pelo fato das rememorações carregarem um alto grau de subjetividade e historicidade, esta pesquisa filia-se ao campo da Linguística Aplicada e aos fundamentos da metodologia qualitativa interpretativista (MOITA-LOPES, 2006), uma vez que tais perspectivas valorizam os múltiplos significados presentes nos dados. A partir de uma análise enunciativa (BAKHTIN, 1929/1979) dos dados, atenta às marcas linguísticas e aos fenômenos enunciativos, objetivou-se detectar indícios do olhar dessas professoras para seus processos de ensino-aprendizagem de leitura e escrita e para as possíveis transformações de concepções sobre o tema, em decorrência da sua participação no Proesf, relacionando, assim, as evidências detectadas pela análise com os traços da historicidade do ensino de língua portuguesa no Brasil. Durante a análise dos dados, foi possível captar informações de como se realizavam certas práticas de linguagens em pelo menos três momentos das trajetórias de vida das autoras: nos primeiros anos escolares, no período que compreende de 5ª a 8ª séries do 1º grau ao magistério e no período em que participavam do Proesf. De modo geral, os dados indicaram que as práticas de ensino-aprendizagem de leitura e escrita que ocupavam posições privilegiadas nas aulas de língua portuguesa ainda nos anos 1980/1990, período em que a rememorações foram vivenciadas, continuavam sendo as mesmas tradicionais e consagradas por séculos, tais como: exercícios de caligrafia, de cópia, de ditados, de formação de frases, de leitura em voz alta, o ensino da gramática, leitura de clássicos literários seguidos de algum tipo de avaliação (prova ou resumo), exercícios de interpretação de texto descontextualizados. No entanto, também foram encontrados indícios de que o ensino baseado em uma concepção de língua sócio-interacionista estava surgindo, mesmo que de maneira incipiente, e chegava à escola o reflexo do deslocamento dos princípios que regiam o ensino de língua portuguesa até os anos anteriores. No percurso de escrita de seus Memoriais, as professoras mostraram-se conhecedoras dos conceitos e significações mais contemporâneos das práticas de linguagem divulgadas durante situações comunicativas vivenciadas no Proesf e, consequentemente, criticaram as práticas chamadas tradicionais, as quais fundamentaram o seu processo formativo / Abstract: This dissertation has as its object of study the recollections of a group of teachers, regarding reading and writing, teaching and learning, registered in Written Records of Professional Development produced as the final paper in a training course in Education (Proesf), offered to teachers working in preschool and in the first grades of elementary school in the metropolitan region of Campinas. Considered as a discursive genre - that materializes in the form of autobiographical narrative (PASSEGGI, 2003), the Written Records of Professional Development consist of recollections of the historical and sociocultural processes experienced by the authors in different contexts, especially the formative one, associated with a theoretical discussion studied in academia (thus, reading and / or writing). Because recollections carry a high degree of subjectivity and historicity, this research is affiliated to the field of Applied Linguistics and to the bases of qualitative interpretive methodology (MOITA-LOPES, 2006), since these perspectives value the multiple meanings in the data. From an enunciative analysis (BAKHTIN, 1929/1979) of the data, attentive to both the linguistic marks and the enunciative phenomena, we aimed at detecting evidence of these teacher's view towards their processes of reading and writing teaching and learning and also the possible changes of conceptions on the subject, as a result of their participation in Proesf, thus relating the evidence uncovered by the analysis with the traces of the historicity of Portuguese language teaching in Brazil. During data analysis it was possible to capture information about how certain language practices took place in at least three moments in the life trajectories of the authors: in the early scholastic years, in the period that includes high school and teaching and in the one in which they took part in Proesf. Overall, the data indicated that the practices in the teaching and learning of reading and writing which occupied privileged positions in Portuguese language classes still in the 1980s/1990s, period during which the recollections were experienced, were the very traditional ones, consecrated by centuries, such as calligraphy exercises, copying, dictation, sentences formation, reading aloud, teaching of grammar, reading of literary classics followed by some kind of assessment (test or summary), text interpretation exercise out of context. However, we also found evidence that teaching based on a social interactionist conception of language was rising, even though it was in its infancy, and the repercussions of shift of the principles governing the teaching of Portuguese in previous years reached the school. In the process of writing their Written Records, the teachers proved to be acquainted with the more contemporary concepts and meanings of language practices disclosed during communicative situations experienced in Proesf and, consequently, criticized the so-called traditional practices, which founded their formative process / Mestrado / Lingua Materna / Mestre em Linguística Aplicada

The diploma thesis "Autobiographical Memory in Suicide Attempters" deals with recall of specific autobiographical memories in suicide attempters. The theoretical part of the thesis defines basic concepts associated with autobiographical memory, presents its structure, role throughout the life-span, and describes relation of autobiographical memory to emotions, depression and self. The second part of the thesis presents basic concepts of suicidal behaviour, describes selected theoretical approaches and models of development of suicidal behaviour, methods and consequences, assessment and prevention of suicidal behaviour, and presents most common myths about suicide. The empirical part verifies ability to recall specific autobiographical memory, latency in recall of autobiographical memories, and tendency for overgeneral autobiographical memories. The empirical part employs Autobiographical Memory Test (AMT), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI - II), Suicide Behavior Questionnaire - Revised (SBQ-R) and The Stress Coping Style Questionnaire (SVF 78). The research sample consists of 40 participants (20 suicide attempters, 20 non-suicidal persons). The results indicate that suicide attempters show higher latency in producing specific autobiographical memories, produce fewer specific memories, and show lower...

Le traumatisme psychique définit le choc émotionnel d'un individu à la suite à d'un évènement traumatique. Dans certains cas, la symptomatologie psychotraumatique s'installe et perdure entrainant l'apparition d'un Trouble de Stress Post Traumatique. La littérature décrit amplement les désordres mnésiques qui accompagnent la maladie et notamment l'altération de la mémoire autobiographique. Ce système de mémoire complexe renferme l'histoire de notre passé sur laquelle s'appuie notre individualité présente et nos aspirations futures. Cependant, l'origine du dysfonctionnement de la mémoire autobiographique reste confuse, cette altération pourrait être un facteur prémorbide, la conséquence de l'exposition traumatique ou celle de la maladie. Les recherches restent incertaines sur les relations existantes entre le dysfonctionnement de la mémoire autobiographique et le traumatisme psychique. Tout au long de ce travail, nous caractériserons le fonctionnement de la mémoire autobiographique dans le contexte d'un traumatisme psychique. Les deux premières études permettront d'analyser la mémoire autobiographique suite à une exposition traumatique unique et suite à des expositions répétées. La dernière étude nous éclairera sur le fonctionnement de la mémoire autobiographique chez des sujets en rémission partielle d'un trouble de stress post traumatique. / Psychological trauma defines the emotional shock experienced by an individual following a traumatic event. In some cases, the psychotraumatic symptomatology develops and persists, leading to the onset of posttraumatic stress disorder. The literature has widely described the memory impairment associated with the disease, especially dysfunction of autobiographical memory. This complex memory system contains the story of our past, on which our present identity and future aspirations are based. However, it remains unclear whether this deficit is due to premorbid autobiographical memory dysfunction, to the trauma exposure itself, or to the subsequent development of posttraumatic stress disorder symptomatology. Research has not yet clarified the relationship between autobiographical memory dysfunction and psychological trauma. Throughout this work, we will define autobiographical memory function in the context of psychological trauma. The first two studies will analyze autobiographical memory function following a single traumatic exposure and following repeated exposures. The final study will shed light on how autobiographical memory functions among participants with posttraumatic stress disorder in partial remission.

This study offers the reader an opportunity to glimpse the world and narrative of a gay man recently come out of the closet and to be invited to participate in his search for improved understanding of his sense of identity. It is a study of autobiographical works in order to gain insight into the changes occurring in the author’s sense of identity but is also in itself an autobiographical work. It is a reflection on the author’s story and an interpretation of aspects of that story, using selected documents written by him over a period of time, in order to highlight specific changes that occur in his sense of identity. The aim of this study is to generate some insight into the sense of identity of a gay man, and optimistically other marginalised groups of people, with specific focus on the changes that have occurred over. This study will be approached from a social constructionist paradigm using qualitative and interpretative methods to analyse the various autobiographical works. This will provide information on the changes that occur over time in a gay man’s sense of identity. / Dissertation (MA (Counselling Psychology))--University of Pretoria, 2007. / Psychology / MA / unrestricted

This thesis considers elements of autobiography and autobiographical fiction in the writings of three female Modernists: Jean Rhys, Gertrude Stein and Djuna Barnes. In chapter 1, after drawing distinctions between male and female autobiographical writing, I discuss key male autobiographical fictions of the Modernist period by D.H. Lawrence, Marcel Proust and James Joyce, and their debt to the nineteenth century literary forms of the Bildungsroman and the Künstlerroman. I relate these texts to key European writers, Andre Gide and Colette, and to works by women based on two separate female Modernist aesthetics: first, the school of "lyrical transcendence"—Dorothy Richardson, Katherine Mansfield and Virginia Woolf—in whose works the self as literary subject dissolves into a renunciatory "female impressionism;" the second group—Rhys, Stein and Barnes--who as late-modernists, offer radically "objectified" self-portraits in fiction which act as critiques and revisions of both male and female Modernist fiction of earlier decades. In chapter 2, I discuss Jean Rhys' objectification of female self-consciousness through her analysis of alienation in two different settings: the Caribbean and the cities of Europe. As an outsider in both situations, Rhys presents an unorthodox counter-vision. In her fictions of the 1930's, she deliberately revises earlier Modernist representations, by both male and female writers, of female self-consciousness. In the process, she offers a simultaneous critique of both social and literary conventions. In chapter 3, I consider Gertrude Stein's career-long experiments with the rendering of consciousness in a variety of literary forms, noting her growing concern throughout the 1920's and 1930's with the role of autobiography in writing. In a close reading of The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas, I examine Stein's parody and "deconstruction" of the autobiographical form and the Modernist conception of the self based on memory, association and desire. Her witty attack on the conventions of narrative produces a new kind of fictional self-portraiture, drawing heavily on the visual arts to create new prose forms as well as to dismantle old ones. Chapter 4 focuses on Djuna Barnes' metaphorical representations of the self in prose fiction, which re-interpret the Modernist notion of the self, by means of an androgynous fictional poetics. In her American and European fictions she extends the notion of the work of art as a formal, self-referential and self-contained "world" by subverting it with the use of a late-modern, "high camp" imagery to create new types of narrative structure. These women's major works, appearing in the 1930's, mark a second wave of Modernism, which revises and in certain ways subverts the first. Hence, these are studies in "late Modernism" and in my conclusion I will consider the distinguishing features of this transitional period, the 1930's, and the questions it provokes about the idea of periodization in general. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

L’objectif de cette thèse était d’étudier les processus impliqués dans la localisation temporelle des événements personnels futurs chez les sujets sains et les patients atteints de schizophrénie. Pour cela, nous avons utilisé la méthode de réflexion à voix haute dans trois études expérimentales pour analyser les stratégies utilisées pour déterminer la localisation temporelle des événements autobiographiques. Dans l’Etude 1, nous avons constaté que les participants utilisaient principalement des processus de reconstruction/d’inférence pour dater les événements. Ils s’appuyaient le plus souvent sur des connaissances autobiographiques (c.-à-d., des périodes de vie/événements étendus) et des connaissances générales pour reconstruire ou inférer le moment des événements, à la fois pour les événements passés et futurs. Dans l'Etude 2, nous avons constaté que les buts personnels influençaient le processus de localisation temporelle en augmentant l'accès direct à la date des événements futurs importants et en favorisant l'utilisation de connaissances autobiographiques pour inférer le moment des événements lorsque les dates ne sont pas directement accessibles. Dans l’Etude 3, nous avons constaté que les patients atteints de schizophrénie avaient des difficultés à s’appuyer sur des informations épisodiques pour reconstruire ou inférer la date des événements personnels, et qu’ils commettaient davantage d’erreurs que les participants témoins lorsqu’on leur demandait de classer dans l’ordre chronologique les événements précédemment datés. Sur la base de ces nouvelles découvertes, nous proposons un modèle à double processus pour la localisation temporelle des événements autobiographiques qui articule les mécanismes cognitifs engagés dans la datation des événements passés et futurs. / The aim of this thesis was to investigate the processes involved in the temporal location of personal future events in healthy individuals and in patients with schizophrenia. To do so, we used a think-aloud procedure in three experimental studies to analyse the strategies used to determine the times of autobiographical events. In Study 1, we found that participants mostly used reconstructive/inferential processes to date events. They relied most frequently on autobiographical knowledge (i.e., lifetime periods/extended events) and general knowledge to reconstruct or infer the times of events, both for past and future events. In Study 2, we found that personal goals influenced the temporal location process by increasing the direct access to the times of important future events, and by favouring the use of autobiographical knowledge to infer the times of events when dates are not directly accessible. In Study 3, we found that patients with schizophrenia had difficulties to rely on episodic information to reconstruct or infer the times of personal events, and made more errors when they were asked to temporally order the previously dated events. Based on these novel findings, we propose a dual-process model of the temporal location of autobiographical events that articulates the cognitive mechanisms engaged in the dating of past and future events

The study investigated aspects of self-rated autobiographical memory between young and middle-aged adults, as well as examined sex differences. A Swedish version of a self-rating questionnaire was used online to assess autobiographical memory. The Survey of autobiographical memory assesses autobiographical memory abilities in episodic, semantic, spatial, and future domains. Forty-one healthy volunteers were included. The youngest group (Mage=26), had 70% women and middle-aged adults (Mage=44) had 50 % percent women. The mean age for women was (M= 30, range = 30) and the mean age for men was (M=34, range= 30). Univariate General Linear Model was performed to determine whether there is a significant mean difference between the age-groups and sex, while a repeated-measures multivariate analysis of variance assessed the interaction between age group and memory type. It was hypothesized that there would be no difference between young and middle-aged adults in semantic autobiographical memory, but that episodic autobiographical memory would be rated lower by the middle-aged adults. The two dependent variables were semantic and episodic scores. No significant effects were found for age-group or sex on the total, episodic, and semantic scores. The age-group by memory-type interaction showed that semantic and episodic memories were not rated differently by the two age-groups. One reason for these non-significant outcomes could be the overall small sample sizes. Further elaboration is needed to assess the aspects of self-rated AM changes from young to middle adulthood, including sex differences in the self-assessment since not many studies have addressed such questions. / Studien undersökte aspekter avsjälvskattat självbiografiskt minne mellan unga vuxna och individer i medelåldern samt även könsskillnader. En svensk version av ett självsskattningsfrågeformulär användes online för att undersöka självbiografiskt minne. Frågeformuläret bedömer autobiografiska minnesförmågor inom episodiska, semantiska, rumsliga och framtida domäner. Fyrtio friska deltagare medverkade i undersökningen. Den yngsta gruppen (M ålder=26), hade 70% kvinnor, medan medelålders vuxna (M ålder =44), hade 50% kvinnor. Medelåldern för kvinnor var (M = 30, intervall = 30) och mäns var (M = 34, intervall = 30). Univariata allmänna linjär modeller utfördes för att bestämma om det finns en signifikant genomsnittlig skillnad mellan åldersgrupperna och kön, medan en multivariat variansanalys med upprepade mätningar bedömde interaktionen mellan åldersgrupp ochminnestyp. Det antogs att det inte skulle finnas någon skillnad mellan unga och i det semantiska självbiografiska minnet, men att episodiskt självbiografiskt minne skulle skattas lägre efter medelåldern. De två beroende variablerna var semantiska och episodiska poäng. Inga signifikanta effekter hittades för åldersgrupp eller kön på den totala, episodiska och semantiska poängen. Interaktionen mellan åldersgrupp och minnestyp visade att semantiska och episodiska minnen inte bedömdes annorlunda av de två åldersgrupperna.
