That in turn breaks down into three specific objectives. The first, noted how issues of body-soul relationship were answered throughout history by theologians and philosophers, and their influence in relation to the formation of Western culture. This objective will guide the first chapter that will present an overview of the body-soul relationship. The second, extracting, examining meaning of the terms vp,n< /n#P#v/ and rf'B' /B*c*r/ in passages where the same were employed, implications related to a perception of ideational and conceptual Semitic assumptions regarding human being. This objective will be pursued throughout the second chapter which is an anthropological approach to the Hebrew Bible. And the third, confront the notion of biblical-Semitic man with symptoms of somatic culture today. This objective will guide the third chapter presents the implications of the terms vp,n< /n#P#v/ and rf'B' /B*c*r/ for somatic culture today. In terms of structure and methodology, this work will follow a logical order, it will start exposing the debate on the body-soul relationship through the panorama presented in the first chapter, which is the philosophical axis; followed by analysis of exegetical texts Hebrew Bible, this is the axis anthropological; and eventually end up confronting the extracted contents of the Hebrew Bible exegetically with the symptoms of somatic culture today, this will be the axis theological and sociological. / Este trabalho consiste numa pesquisa sobre a relação corpo-alma na Bíblia Hebraica e suas implicações para cultura corporal hodierna, orientando-se pelo seguinte objetivo geral: compreender a noção semítico-bíblica de homem, por meio do estudo semântico dos termos hebraicos vp,n< /n#P#v/ e rf'B' /B*c*r/, e suas implicações para a cultura somática hodierna. Que por sua vez desdobra-se em três objetivos específicos. O primeiro, assinalar a forma como questões referentes à relação corpo-alma foram respondidas ao longo da história por teólogos e filósofos, e sua influência em relação à formação da cultura ocidental . Este objetivo orientará o primeiro capítulo que apresentará um panorama sobre a relação corpo-alma; o segundo, extrair, do exame de sentido dos termos vp,n< /n#P#v/ e rf'B' /B*c*r/ nas passagens bíblicas onde os mesmo foram empregados, implicações relacionadas a uma percepção dos pressupostos ideativos e conceptuais semíticos referentes ao ser humano . Este objetivo será perseguido ao longo do segundo capítulo que consiste numa abordagem antropológica à Bíblia Hebraica; e o terceiro, confrontar a noção semítico-bíblica de ser humano com os sintomas da cultura somática hodierna . Este objetivo norteará o terceiro capítulo que apresenta as implicações dos termos vp,n< /n#P#v/ e rf'B' /B*c*r/ para a cultura somática hodierna. Em termos de estrutura e metodologia, este trabalho seguirá uma ordem de raciocínio lógico, pois iniciará expondo o debate sobre a relação corpo-alma através do panorama apresentado no primeiro capítulo, sendo este o seu eixo filosófico; seguirá através da análise exegética de textos da Bíblia Hebraica, este é o eixo antropológico; e por fim, terminará por confrontar o conteúdo extraído exegeticamente da Bíblia Hebraica com os sintomas da cultura somática atual, este será o eixo teológico e sociológico.

Autour d'une question fondamentale comme celle de la présence, nous mobilisons une littérature interdisciplinaire grâce à laquelle les contributions de l'anthropologie et de la géographie sociale, de la théorie du théâtre et du cinéma, des performance studies, de la psychanalyse et de la sociologie, sont articulées dans la perspective de la phénoménologie et des sciences de l'information et de la communication. Notre façon d'habiter le monde a changé : l'être-en-ligne se révèle alors comme étant la nouvelle condition existentielle. La connexion au réseau, le web, les applications, dans leur ensemble, disposent les choses et les personnes selon des relations opérationnelles de proximité spatio-temporelle. Notre espace est un espace performatif, car il se produit à partir de nos actions, nos postures et nos gestes, gestes photo-graphiques, éminemment réflexifs, qui créent la mise en scène numérique. En allant au-delà du modèle de « l'interface », cette mise en scène est devenue la spatialité de raccordement de tous nos espaces d'action. Nous identifions alors la performativité du direct et de l’enregistrement, la performativité de l’être en train de…, de l’attention présentielle et du « suspens gestuel », la performativité des algorithmes et des notifications, la performativité des emoji et de tout ce qui «fait visage»; et encore, la performativité des questions et des messages automatiques derrière lesquels parfois il y quelqu’un et d’autres fois il n’y a personne (comme lorsqu’on sonne à la porte dans une scène de La cantatrice chauve). A la lumière d'une analyse socio-sémiotique de la gestuelle numérique, des écrans, du graphisme propre aux réseaux sociaux et aux applications de messagerie instantanée tout comme des « protocoles de la vie quotidienne », nous décrivons la présence comme étant toujours l'effet d'une médiation. Cette médiation est, à la fois, disjonction et fiction, car elle se manifeste dans l'écart et dans la différence aussi bien que dans la fiction de l'hypermédiatété. Il y a de la présence, en somme, s'il y a du jeu, au sens spatiale de l'expression « il y a du jeu » mais aussi au sens fictionnel et ludique du jouer à.…. Comme le garçon du café décrit par Sartre, nous jouons, fictionnons et de-fictionnons le réel, en faisant « comme si » était vrai ce qui, par ailleurs, l'est vraiment. / Around the fundamental question of presence, I draw on interdisciplinary literature whose contributions from the fields of anthropology and social geography, theatre and cinema theory, performance studies, psychoanalysis and sociology are articulated from the perspective of phenomenology and information and communication sciences. Our way of inhabiting the world has changed: online-being is the new fundamental existential condition. Our space is a performative space, because it is produced through our actions, our gestures, eminently reflexive photographic gestures, which create our digital mise en scène. This space has become the space which links together all of our active and social spaces. Here, I single out live and recorded performativity, the performativity of do-ing, the performativity of algorithms and of questions, of emojis and of all that which “fait visage”. After a socio-semiotic analysis of digital gestures, screens, the graphics of social networks and presence protocols, I describe presence as always being a mediation effect. This mediation is at once disjunction and fiction, beacause it works as a difference and as the fiction of hypermediality. Presence exists where there is play (jeu) as in the french expression “il y a du jeu”, refering to space, and in its fictional sense of play-acting. As with Sartre's café waiter, we play act in order to create reality and consciousness through fiction.

Thesis (PhD)--Macquarie University, Faculty of Arts, Department of Media, Music, and Cultural Studies, 2009. / Bibliography: p. 303-332. / Carnal transcendence and sexual difference -- An amorous exchange -- Angels playing with placentas -- Fluid subjects -- Poetics -- Oneiric spaces -- Conclusion. / Carnal transcendence imagines a world in which the carnal has the weight and value of transcendence, and the divine is as liveable and readily evoked as the carnal. Carnal transcendence offers a means of thinking through difference in the work of Luce Irigaray, who asks: "why and how long ago did God withdraw from carnal love?" (1991a, p 16). This thesis argues that Irigaray enables her readers to explore the relationship between carnality, transcendence and difference, but resists elaborating it in her work. Carnal transcendence as difference risks remaining an exercise in rhetoric, rather than the transformative and creative philosophy that Irigaray imagines. -- Irigaray's resistance to the carnal is evident in her arguments for sexual difference, which offers our "salvation" if we think it through, and heralds "a new age of thought, art, poetry, and language: the creation of a new poetics" (1993a, p 5). Note the language of transcendence used here. When considered in the light of carnal transcendence, sexual difference imagines a differently sexed culture. This thesis argues that Irigaray's writing is contradictory on this point: it articulates the plurality of women's sexuality, but emphatically excludes theories of sex and gender that emphasise multiplicity. This thesis challenges these limitations by exploring the possibilities of the "other" couple in Irigaray's writing-mother and daughter - for thinking through carnal transcendence as difference. -- This thesis not only explicates a theoretical model for carnal transcendence as difference; it also attempts to put into practice a poetics - a playful rewriting of theory. This celebrates the carnality of Irigaray's writing - evident in her complex imagery of the two lips, mucus, the placenta and angels-and enables an exploration of the philosophical space of the "new poetics" that Irigaray is attempting to engender. / Mode of access: World Wide Web. / 332 p. ill (some col.)

O corpo, no decorrer da História, principalmente da Filosofia ocidental, passou por gradativo ganho de importância, até chegar ao entendimento do mesmo como corpo próprio ou o corpo que se é. Na Educação Física, da mesma forma, o passar dos tempos lhe trouxe também relevância. Nesse viés, o homem, com forte presença dos anseios sociais, age em relação ao (seu) corpo de maneira que se mostra evidente uma significativa influência do contexto social no processo de sua estruturação. Kant, em sua doutrina da educação, traz a disciplina como característica importante para a constituição do mesmo homem e, mais, descreve a importância da sociedade e do próprio homem para a estruturação de um e outro, ou seja, do homem e da sociedade, numa relação necessária para tal. Percebe-se que o cuidado, no sentido de atenção que o homem tem com seu corpo, um corpo próprio e que é no mundo, perde espaço mediante o contexto social que envolve o ser humano e refere-se mais a um corpo que está no mundo, semelhante a um objeto. Assim, a presente pesquisa tem o propósito de investigar os aportes da disciplina kantiana para o cuidado com o corpo na contemporaneidade. O estudo está situado na linha de pesquisa da História e Filosofia da Educação do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Universidade de Caxias do Sul. São analisados, mediante pesquisa bibliográfica, o corpo na História ocidental, a partir de quatro pensadores, a saber: Platão, Santo Agostinho, Descartes e Merleau-Ponty e também na história da Educação Física. Posteriormente, é realizada uma incursão na doutrina educacional kantiana, principalmente no que tange à disciplina, com a finalidade de estruturar as suas contribuições à forma de agir do homem com seu corpo. Por fim, observa-se a Educação Física dentro da Educação, a disciplina e o corpo e o corpo na sociedade atual, em sua condição de exposição. É realizado, então, o cruzamento das ideias kantianas com o contexto social atual, com a finalidade de apontar as contribuições do pensamento kantiano. O estudo está dividido em parte introdutória, seguida do capítulo que aborda o corpo na Filosofia ocidental e na Educação Física; o capítulo que enfoca a doutrina educacional de Kant e o capítulo que tem como cerne o corpo na sociedade atual, além das considerações finais. Constatou-se que o contexto social influencia significativamente o comportamento do homem e, muitas vezes, de forma pouco saudável. Entra em cena a autonomia objetivada por Kant, motivada pela confusão na determinação dos atos do homem. Seriam as atitudes do homem autônomas, ou impelidas pela sociedade? Nesse viés, a disciplina kantiana surge como possibilidade de reeducação da juventude, com a finalidade de afastar o homem de hábitos ruins, da comodidade e conduzi-lo a um caminho de autodeterminação e mais saudável fisicamente. / Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-06-04T18:53:47Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Leonardo De Ross Rosa.pdf: 524494 bytes, checksum: 950158653e3feef1123da4149fc1ddc1 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2014-06-04T18:53:47Z (GMT).

Likewise, in Physical Education, time has brought it more relevance. From that point of view, man, as a strong presence in social expectations, acts towards his Body in such a way that shows the significant influence of the social context in the process of its structuring. Kant, in his doctrine for education, treats discipline as an important characteristic in constituting that same man and moreover describes the importance that society and man himself have in structuring each other, that is, man and society in a relationship which is necessary for that. One can observe that the kind of care in the sense of paying attention to something that the man can have with his corporeal body and the body that is in the world, loses some space by means of the social context that involves human beings and refers more specifically to a body that is in the world, similarly to an object. Thus, the study described here has the purpose of investigating the principles of Kantian discipline regarding the body in contemporaneity. The study was carried out according to one of the research lines of the Graduate Program in Education at the University of Caxias do Sul, which is History and Philosophy of Education. Upon bibliographic research, the Body in Western History is analyzed according to four thinkers, which are Plato, Saint Augustine, Descartes, and Merleau-Ponty, and also according to history of Physical Education. Later, the study approaches the Kantian educational doctrine, especially in what relates to discipline, with the purpose of structuring its contributions as for the way man acts with his body. And, finally, Physical Education is considered in the field of Education, considering discipline and the body, and the body itself in society today, in its condition of being more exposed. At the end, concepts from Kant s ideas are crossed with the current, aiming to point out contributions from Kant. The study has been divided in five parts: the introduction, followed by a chapter that deals with the Body in Western Philosophy and in Physical Education; then another chapter that focuses on Kant s educational doctrine and a chapter centered on the Body in today s society, and ends with some final remarks. It was possible to observe that the social context influences man s behavior significantly and that, many times, such influence is not very healthy. The autonomy described by Kant is highlighted, motivated by the confusion in determination by man s actions. Would man s attitudes be autonomous or impelled by society? From that point of view, Kantian discipline emerges as a possibility of reeducating young people, with the purpose of keeping man away from bad habits, self-indulgence, and guiding him towards a path where self-determination and physical health are part of.
