The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the issue of the finding under Roman law, as one of the ways of acquiring ownership to a thing. The beginning is dedicated to the description of some specifics of Roman ownership, to its subject and to the ways of acquiring the ownership law at general. The thesis focuses on three main areas - occupation, acquiring the ownership to the abandoned things and the finding of a treasure. Occupation (occupatio) is a way of acquiring the ownership of the nobody's thing via its seizure. The thesis enumerates and describes each category of nobody's things. Attention is payed to the occupation of discovered movables, to the occupation of animals, immovables and to the seizure of things that belong to the enemy. Each of these categories of things has its specifics and it is very important to separate occupation from other ways of acquiring. The next issue is acquiring the ownership to the abandoned things (res derelictae). One have to differentiate between the period of classic Roman law and between the later law from the time of the emperor Justinian. The status of abandoned things in the classical era is not clear, as well as the method for obtaining their ownership. In the time of the codification of the emperor Justinian is the acquiring of abandoned things certainly more...

Esta tese investiga, em sua primeira parte, a invenção retórica apresentada no Do orador, de Marco Túlio Cícero, tendo como ponto de partida comentário do próprio autor, em Ad Familiares I, 9, 23, de que os libri De oratore afastam-se dos preceitos comuns e contemplam toda a doutrina oratória dos antigos, tanto a de Aristóteles como a de Isócrates. Para tal, compara-se a exposição de Antônio, protagonista do diálogo, em II, 99-216 aos tratamentos dados nas artes anteriores ao diálogo e na Retórica de Aristóteles. A segunda parte consiste na primeira tradução completa do Do orador em língua portuguesa. / The present thesis investigates, in its first part, rhetorical inventio as presented in Marcus Tullius Ciceros On the orator. Its starting point is Ciceros own comments in Ad Familiares I, 9, 23 that the libri De oratore shun the regular precepts and comprise the whole oratorical doctrine of the ancients, both the Aristotelian and the Isocratic ones. In order to achieve such goal, Antoniuss presentation (2.99-216) is compared to both the treatment given to the same issue in the artes, which predate the dialogue, and that of Aristotles Rhetoric. The second part presents De oratores first complete translation into Portuguese.

Det här är en vetenskapsteoretisk uppsats med problemformuleringen hur kan vi förstå nytänkande, mänskligt resonerande och vetenskaplig utveckling ur ett retorikvetenskapligt perspektiv? Arbetet sker utifrån temat det nya, som i ny förståelse av tillvaron. Jag motiverar retorikens relevans i uppsatsen genom att definiera retoriken som en lära om och förmågan att förstå tillvaron. Retorikvetenskapens plats och relevans för problemformuleringen tydliggörs genom att visa hur retoriken kan förstås i relation till några kända och betydelsefulla fysiska teorier och tankar från Einstein och Galileo. Jag inleder min studie med Gärdenfors kognitionsforskning och Castoriadis förståelse av skapandet av nya idéer. Därefter använder jag begreppen inventio, topos och metafor för att vidare ta mig an problemformuleringen. Slutligen visar jag hur vi genom doxologin kan söka nå bortom en förståelse av kunskap och vetande som antingen absolut objektiv eller subjektiv. Vad jag når2fram till och visar i uppsatsen är att retorikvetenskapen visar att all förståelse om tillvaron går genom människan själv, vilket innebär att människan har en roll i den vetenskapliga förändringen. Retorikvetenskapen kan ge oss hjälpmedel att se att underliggande argumentativa strukturer och andra försanthållanden reglerar eller formar det sätt på vilket vi tänker och funderar i olika frågor och därigenom hur desamma kan reglera och forma den vetenskapliga praktiken och teorin. / This is an epistemological thesis dealing with the question how can we understand innovating thinking, human reasoning, and scientific development from a rhetorical perspective? The underlying theme in the thesis is the new, as in new understanding of our world and existence. I motivate the rhetorical relevance in the thesis by defining rhetoric as a science of and the ability of understanding our world and existence. The relevance of rhetoric and its place towards the thesis’ question is clarified by showing how rhetoric could be understood in relation to some known and significant physical theories and ideas by Einstein and Galileo. I begin my study with Gärdenfors’ research of cognitive science and Castoriadis’ understanding of creation of new ideas. After that I use the concepts inventio, topos, and metaphor to further take on the question. Finally, I show how we by the use of doxology can go beyond an understanding of science and knowledge as either totally objective or totally subjective. My conclusion is that rhetoric shows that all understanding of our world and existence go through man himself, which means that humans have a significant role in the scientific development. Rhetoric can give us tools helping us see that underlying argumentative structures and other ideas we hold as true regulate and shape our thinking and understanding, and thereby how the same can regulate and shape the scientific practice and theory.

Text in Afrikaans / Hoewel die retorika bykans 26 eeue oud is, word die relevansie daarvan vir ons eie tyd toenemend besef - as 'n sleutel tot die wyse waarop mense dinkargumenteer en oorreed. Hierdie studie ondersoek retoriese (oorredende) strategiee in Afrikaanse historiese romantekste, binne 'n historiese konteks en teen die agtergrond van eietydse historiografiese insigte. Die aspekte van die kommunikasiesituasie wat saamhang met die retorika, word verbind met die vernuwende denke daaroor binne die hedendaagse literatuurteorie en historiografie. Die konteks van die outeur en roman word telkens bestudeer, gevolg deur 'n retoriese analise. Aristoteles se idees oor die retorika kry hierby voorrang, vanwee sy nadruk op die inventio of vinding, maar die retorika word eerder geassosieer met 'n dinamiese metode as met rigiede kategorisering. Aandag word veral bestee aan retoriese strategies in S.J. du Toit se Di koningin fan Skeba (1898) en Andre P. Brink se Houd-den-bek (1982), maar ook aan resente historiese romans wat hedendaagse historiografiese en retoriese opvattinge en konvensies ontgin en problematiseer. Beide S.J. du Toit, wat kennelik 'n goeie kennis van die antieke retorika gehad het en Andre P. Brink, met sy romanonderwerp wat aansluit by die geregtelike rede, betree die retoriese terrain op sodanige wyse dat hul romans tipiese produkte van hul eie tyd genoem kan word. Beide die geskiedskrywing en die historiese roman is gemedieerde weergawes, gekenmerk deur 'n subjektiewe seleksie (inventio) van gegewens en die kombinasie daarvan binne eie verbale strukture (dispositio). Dit kan in verband gebring word met nie-tegniese oorredingsmiddele, waar die sender sy informasie van buite kry. Hy gebruik dan sogenaamde empiries-verifieerbare feite as retoriese strategie ten einde 'n waarheids- en I of werklikheidsillusie te skep wat bydra tot die roman se oorredingsskrag. Die keuse vir die skryf van 'n historiese roman, impliseer reeds ook 'n keuse vir die bakens van die geskiedskrywing, maar 'n skeppende skrywer is, anders as 'n historikus, eties vry om nie-tegniese bewysmiddele te transformeer tot tegniese bewysmiddele, in aanpassing by 'n nuutgeskepte argumentatio en 'n eie causa. Na aanleiding van die tekste kom die ontvanger op sy beurt tot 'n eie seleksie en skep sy eie kousale en argumentatiewe strukture / While rhetoric has been part of the history of mankind for nearly 26 centuries, it is increasingly regarded as extremely relevant for our time - as a key to the way in which people think, argue and persuade. This study investigates rhetorical (persuasive) strategies in Afrikaans historical novels. The novels and their authors are first situated in their historical contexts and against the background of contemporary historiographical inquiry, and then analyzed by means of rhetorical concepts. Aspects of communication, which coincide with rhetorical categories, are combined with recent developments in the field of literary theory and historiography. Aristotle's views on persuasion and rhetoric are used as point of departure, but rhetoric is regarded as a dynamic method rather than a rigid categorization. Attention is given to rhetorical strategies in the novel Di konlngin fan Skeba [The queen of Sheba] by S.J. du Toit (1898) and Andre P. Brink's Houd-denbek [translated into English by the author as A chain of voices], but also to recent Afrikaans historical novels which exploit contemporary historiographical and rhetorical conventions. In S.J. du Toit's novel (which illustrates his knowledge of ancient rhetoric) as well as Andre P. Brink's (where the topic can be linked to litigation) rhetorical strategies are employed in such a manner that their texts can be regarded as products of their historical contexts. Both historiography and historical novels are mediated representations, characterized by a subjective selection (inventio) of data and its combination in verbal structures (dispositio). This can be related to 'extrinsic' or 'inartificial' proofs, which are not contrived by the author. The author exploits the so-called empirically verifiable facts as rhetorical strategies to create an illusion of truth or verisimilitude, which greatly contributes to the persuasiveness of the novel. The decision to write a historical novel implies a choice to keep to the historical 'facts', but the writer, in contrast to the historiographer, is ethically free to transform the inartificial proofs into artificial proofs, in combination with his own invented argumentatio and causa. Prompted by these texts the reader, in his turn, makes his own selection and creates his own causal and argumentative structures / Afrikaans & Theory of Literature / D. Litt. et Phil. (Afrikaans)

Creative dissertation. / Malinowski aurait peut-être souhaité que son journal soit révélé à titre posthume afin de contester l’accent mis sur la méthode scientifique par l’anthropologie sociale de son époque. Le dévoilement du journal de Bronislaw Malinowski renverse la domination des explications du fait social par le déterminisme, ouvrant la voie à ce qui devient, dans les années 1960, le tournant discursif. Le journal offre un aperçu de l’impulsion de vitalité de Malinowski et de ses préoccupations existentielles, qui sont excisées dans le processus de réécriture, connu pour transformer les notes de terrain en l’expression formelle caractérisant les monographies. L’anthropologue rédige des monographies pour ses contemporains en construisant des récits étayés par des preuves scientifiques d’une manière qui dissimule par la censure, les automatismes et la catégorie plus large de la subjectivité, ainsi que la possible relégation temporelle de l’Autre, qui peut entraîner la discrimination envers celui-ci. La personnalité publique de l’anthropologue est stylisée par le souci professionnel de représenter correctement le natif-comme-texte. Puisqu’il réfléchit à son avenir publiable, on émet l’hypothèse que Malinowski aurait l’intention de rédiger les entrées de son journal afin d’apporter une contribution posthume à l’anthropologie. Si cela est vrai, le journal est l’espace où les stratégies d’auto-dévoilement surgissent au premier plan, révélant la vulnérabilité supposée de l’auteur. Le dévoilement de l’expérience de vie n’est pas le produit d’un monologue intérieur chaotique, mais possède une fin en soi, qui est de révéler, à travers le mode de l’aveu, l’anthropologue-comme-texte. On pensait autrefois qu’en anthropologie, le système de la vérité était basé sur l’écriture théorique. Maintenant, le journal est mis en évidence. L’héritage de Malinowski repose avant tout sur la sophistique utilisée pour réorganiser le système de vérité entre l’écriture théorique et l’intime, entre la monographie et le journal. Cette réorganisation des vérités est accomplie à travers Writing in Schein qui est mon idiome se référant au jeu textuel avec des composantes du discours destiné à produire la litterarité inspirée d’images brillantes dans l’art apollinien. Writing in Schein est alors la diffusion des apparences, qui amplifie la crise de la représentation entre la copie qui imite, et le simulacre qui invente, puisque la sophistique nécessaire pour aligner les éléments du discours est une folle simulation littéraire. Par l’acte unique du journal et son dévoilement prévu pour la postérité, Malinowski détruit l’enchainement de l’activité productive en anthropologie. / Malinowski may have wished for his diary to be revealed posthumously in order to contest the intense focus on the scientific method, adopted in his time. The unveiling of Bronislaw Malinowski’s diary overthrows the dominance of explanations of social fact based solely on determinism, paving the way for what becomes known, during the 1960s, as the discursive turn. The diary offers insight into Malinowski’s impulse of vitality, along the existential concerns and narratives of personal experience, which are excised in the process of rewriting known to transform field notes into the type of formal expression that characterizes monographs. The anthropologist writes monographs for contemporaries by responding to their expectation of accounts backed by scientific evidence in a way that fosters concealment through censorship, automatisms and the larger category of subjectivity, as well as the possible time-relegation of the Other, which may result in discrimination against him. A positive public persona is stylized out of professional concern for properly staging the native-as-text. It is hypothesized that Malinowski possible future publication of the journal intends to compose its entries so as to make a posthumous contribution to anthropology. If that is true, the journal is the space where strategies of self-showing come to the fore, revealing the author’s assumed vulnerability. The unveiling of life experience is not the product of chaotic interior monologue or brooding, but has an end-goal which is to unveil, through the mode of avowal, the anthropologist-as-text. It was once thought that the anthropological system of truth is based on theoretical writing. Now, however diary is highlighted. Malinowski’s legacy rests foremost upon the sophistry used to reorder the system of truth between theoretical and intimate writing, between the monograph and the diary. This reordering of truths is accomplished through Writing in Schein, which is my idiom referring to the textual play with components of discourse intended to produce beautiful constructs inspired by shining images in Apollonian art. Writing in Schein is then the dissemination of appearances, which amplifies the crisis of representation between the copy that imitates, and the simulacrum that invents, since the sophistry required to align elements of discourse is a mad literary simulation. Through the single act of the diary and its unveiling planned for posterity, Malinowski destroys the sequence of productive activity in anthropology. / Malinowski możliwie życzył sobie, aby dziennik został ujawniony pośmiertnie. Podsuwam hipotezę, że chciał on w ten sposób rzucić wyzwanie metodzie naukowej przyjętej przez ówczesną antropologię społeczną. Odsłonięcie dziennika Bronisława Malinowskiego odwraca uwagę od dominacji wyjaśniania faktów społecznych przez determinizm, torując drogę zwrotowi dyskursywnemu spopularyzowanego w dyscyplinie od lat sześćdziesiątych. Pamiętnik oferuje wgląd w impuls witalności Malinowskiego i jego obaw egzystencjalnych, które są strategicznie wykreślane z tekstu podczas przekształcania notatek terenowych w formalne wyrażenia, charakteryzujące monografie. Antropolog komponuje monografie dla współczesnych czytelników, konstruując tekstualne relacje poparte dowodami naukowymi i cenzurą automatyzmów, szerszej kategorii podmiotowości, a także czasowego degradowania Obcego. Postać publiczna antropologa jest stylizowana, aby poprawnie przedstawiać rdzennego-jako-tekst. Spekuluje się, że zastanawiając się nad swoją publikowalną przyszłością, Malinowski zamierza formułować wpisy do swojego dziennika, aby pośmiertnie przyczynić się do nauki o kulturze, i ludzkości. Jeśli to prawda, dziennik jest przestrzenią, w której ujawnia się jego rzekoma wrażliwość. Odsłonięcie doświadczenia życiowego nie jest wytworem chaotycznego monologu wewnętrznego, ale ma cel samo w sobie ujawnienia, poprzez poufałość, antropologa-jako-tekst. Kiedyś uważano, że w antropologii system prawdy opierał się na piśmie teoretycznym. Teraz dziennik jest podświetlony. Dziedzictwo Malinowskiego polega przede wszystkim na sofistyce, za pomocą której reorganizuje on system prawdy między pismem teoretycznym a prywatnym, między monografią a pamiętnikiem. Tę reorganizację prawd dokonuje się poprzez Scheinschrift, które jest moim idiomem odwołującym się do gry tekstowej mającej na celu wytworzenie systemu wyrazów piękna inspirowanych sztuką apollińską. Scheinschrift potęguje kryzys reprezentacji między modelem a kopiami. Scheinschrift jest zatem sofistyką niezbędną do zestrojenia elementów dyskursu i rozpowszechnienia pozorów, miejącymi na celu kształtowanie szalonej symulacji literackiej. Wyłącznym aktem pisma pamiętnika i jego odsłonięciem przeznaczonym dla potomności, Malinowski niszczy dawny łańcuch twórczej działalności antropologii.
