Os sujeitos sociais centrais pertencem à faixa etária dos 14 a 19 anos de idade cuja experiência de vida se faz entre os contextos rural e urbano. Outros jovens pertencentes a uma faixa etária subseqüente também foram entrevistados. Alguns sujeitos foram fotografados e :filmados. Fez-se uso dessas imagens como procedimento metodológico. Numa primeira etapa,' nós reproduzimos as imagens para os sujeitos' entrevistados, de tal fonna que esse recurso foi utilizado como elemento adicional de reflexão dos próprios sujeitos sobre o conhecimento que se produzia acerca deles. Este material resultou no vídeo "Contos de Rosário" (18 min, reprodução em VHS e CD-R),que será uma das fonnas pelas quais o presente trabalho será devolvido às pessoas envolvidas, como fonna de retribuição por sua participação. As preocupações que nortearam a investigação - Sexualidade e Fann1ianum contexto rural ou "urbano" - referem-se às experiências e representações da sexualidadeentre rapazes e moças e as transfonnações nas famílias rurais delas decorrentes. Os relatos de jovens e adultos sobre suas experiências com a sexualidade, a saúde reprodutiva e questões relacionadas à prevenção de doenças se fofoca e a religiosidade, que incidem nos comportamentos dos sujeitos sociais da pesquisa. O pano de fundo diz respeito, portanto, às mudanças nos valores socioculturais, em que se colocam em questão valores coletivos e geracionais contrastando com valores individuais, e suas implicações no rearranjo das fann1iasrurais. a ansiedade começava a roubar-me a capacidade de perseverar, ela me chamou à razão para valorizar todo o esforço empreendido à captura dos dados e confecção da tese. Por isso, das muitas versões que leu de minha tese, ao término, no acabamento e esclarecimento das análises, esta se tomou bem melhor do que teria sido se não tivesse sua orientação e finneza / Abstract: This study was done with younglins of rural background who live in a county at the Vale do Jequitinhonha - MG, BRAZIL. The main social subject's ages range from fourteen to nineteen years old and their life's experiences were made among the rural and the urban contexts. Others younglins of higher ages were also studied and interviewed. Some of the subjects were filmed and photographed. We made use of these imagens as a metodological procedure. Jn a first step we showed these images back to the social subjects so as to give them aditional elements for thought on to the knowledge that was being produced about them. With this materialwe created the video "Tales of Rosário" (18 min, available in VHS and CD-R), that will be one of the waysby which the present study will be delivered to the people involved as a ways of retribution for their participation. The main concems of this investigation - Sexuality and Family in a rural or "rurban" context - refers both to the experiences and representations of sexuality among boys and girls and to the transformations that succeeded in their rural families subjected to these experiences. The reports, made by younglins and adults, on their experiences with sexuality,the reprodutive health and the questions related to the prevention of sexually transmited diseases are alI justaposed with their experiences with other transversal issues, like the gossip and religiousness, that happen to occur in the present research' subject's behavior. The background of this reasearch is thus related to the changes occulTedin the sociocultural values of the subjects researched, upon which the coletive and gerational values are contrastedwith the individualvalues,and the subsequentreframingof the rural families' . structures / Doutorado / Ciencias Sociais / Doutor em Ciências Sociais

Snowing in Kansas

Courtney, Mackenzie 28 April 2011 (has links)
Set in rural Kansas, this story follows the lives of Jonathan Tate, his sister Lily Anne Tate, and their father, up until his death, Hershall Tate. They are an isolated family, seemingly living outside of time. John opens the novel with a walk into town to set the contrast between him and the rest of the world. Time is the theme and essence, because every scene and the tone of the scenes are weighted by the imminence of Hershall's death. He is dying slowly and so their lives move slowly. Lily can't help but be ornery, while John, assuming all the chores and anxiety of the future without his father, is reserved and reluctant. Hershall is set in his ways and not in a hurry to get the house in order before his death. There is the old-fashioned nature of Hershall, the isolated nature of the whole family, and the rest of the modern world to contend with. These beginning pages are setting up the next stage of the novel where Lily and John begin their journey after their father's death.

Realism in Hamlin Garland's Prose Fiction of Midwestern Farm Life

Brack, Patsy Lee 01 1900 (has links)
No artist can be set apart from the developments and problems of his day, and so it was that Hamlin Garland, literary spokesman for the Midwestern farmers of the last quarter of the nineteenth century, was inevitably bound to portray his region with all of its economic, social, and political complexities. His work was destined to be influenced by the echoes of the Civil War, the immigration of both Americans and foreigners to a fertile, grain-producing country, and by all the problems of adjustment that faced this agrarian society.
