The character of Holden Caulfield can be sincerely identified as an ornament. An ornament, such as a flower vase in an impeccable table, or a beautiful desk in the middle of a study room delicately decorated. But for this purposes, Holden Caulfield is a ornament of a society that is not aware of its existence or his importance. An ornament within his family, that looks more like an award cabinet than a loving Christmas postcard.

John Dewey's philosophical work was establishing a continuum between human behavior and nature. Dewey advanced the theory that everything we experience comes through interaction with our surroundings - and articulating our experience by this interaction. Dewey uses experience even in the framework of art - and he stresses the importance of combining art and esthetic experience into our everyday life. The first part of my paper is meant to explain Dewey's philosophical concepts, his view on the issues relating to the common world, his analysis of normal/everyday experience, and his analysis of what he termed esthetic experience. Part two is a comparison between Dewey's philosophy of esthetic experience and Jerome Stolnitz's, another known aesthetic philosopher, and their theories on esthetics. The basic question I seek to answer is whether, despite their differences in theories, Stolnitz was coming from a different theoretical background with different traditions and assumptions, one can still trace certain consensus and mutually shared territory in which their theories merge. And so, I attempt to answer the question, can we find characteristics of esthetic experience that would be plausible to both of them? Or is it rather that their understanding of esthetic experience was so different, that we...

C’est pendant une période très troublée que Saint Jérôme (347-419) exerce son activité intellectuelle surabondante.Remarqué par le pape Damase en 382, ce dernier lui confie la lourde tâche de refaire la traduction latine des textes de la Bible. Cette traduction sera connue sous le nom de Vulgate. Certes Saint Jérôme n’est pas un juriste de formation, mais son érudition et ses solides connaissances juridiques lui permettent d’analyser le déclin de l’Empire Romain avec une double approche : à la fois religieuse et institutionnelle. Cette analyse met en exergue un véritable sens de l’histoire propre au saint Docteur de l’Eglise.Ainsi après une lutte acharnée contre les hérésies, Saint Jérôme va s’attacher à peindre le tableau de ce monde romain s’effondrant sous les coups répétés des barbares : « Mon cœur frémit en abordant les désastres de notre temps. Voilà plus de vingt ans qu’entre Constantinople et les Alpes Juliennes, le sang romain coule tous les jours ». (Epist. IX, 16). Les écrits de Jérôme, avec notamment les fameuses Correspondances, en disent beaucoup sur le désarroi éprouvé par un peuple entier.Grâce à l’éclairage d’autres auteurs, nous étudierons cette période cruciale de l’Antiquité, qui a vu l’éclosion des plus grands esprits de l’époque et dont Saint Jérôme est l’une des figures les plus marquantes. / It was during a very troubled period that Saint Jerome (347-419) operated his abundant intellectual activity.Noticed by Pope Damasus in 382, he entrusted him the arduous task of re-translation of Latin texts of the Bible. This translation will later be known as the Vulgate. Although Saint Jerome is not a lawyer by training, his erudition and solid legal knowledge enable him to analyze the decline of the Roman Empire with a dual approach : both religious and institutional. This analysis demonstrakes a true vision of History in this Church Father’s mind.Thus after a fierce fight against heresies, Saint Jerome will focus on the disaster of the Roman’s world collapse, under the repeated blows of the barbarians : « My heart trembles in thinking of the disasters of our time. For over twenty years, between Constantinople and the Julian Alps, the Roman blood has been flowing every day ». (Epist. IX, 16). Jerome’s writings, including the famous « Correspondances », say much about the distress experienced by an entire people.With the lighting of other authors, we will examine this crucial period of antiquity, which saw the emergence of the greatest minds of our time, which Saint Jerome is one of the most significant.

Esta dissertação compreende a tradução, descrição, análise e anotação crítica das cartas que compõem a correspondência, produzida de ca. 394/395 a 419, entre Aurélio Agostinho (Tagaste, atual Souk Ahras, 354 - Hipona, atual Annaba, 430/431), presbítero e posteriormente bispo em Hipona, e Eusébio Jerônimo (Estridão, atual Liubliana, 331 - Belém, 419/420), monge então residente em Belém. Esta dissertação também compreende um estudo introdutório dessa correspondência, dividido em duas partes: uma interpretação de elementos nas cartas à luz do gênero epistolar helenístico, sua teoria e prática, conforme estas foram descritas tanto por outros escritores gregos e latinos, antigos e cristãos, quanto por críticos modernos; em seguida, uma contextualização histórica do texto, por sua vez fundamentada nos estudos da correspondência e na historiografia moderna, com enfoque na biografia de nossos autores, os quais viveram em uma época marcada por questões caras ao desenvolvimento da patrística latina como a discussão acerca da interpretação e tradução das Sagradas Escrituras, o combate às heresias, e, mais importante, o papel político e social da Igreja Católica na busca por uma doutrina cristã unívoca e ortodoxa durante a Antiguidade Tardia. / This dissertation comprehends the translation, analysis, and critical annotation of the letters that compose the correspondence of Aurelius Augustine (Thagast, modern day Souk Ahras, 354 - Hippo Regius, modern day Annaba, 430/431), presbyter and then bishop of Hippo, with Eusebius Jerome (Stridon, modern day Ljubliana, 331 - Bethlehem, 419/420), a monk then living in Bethlehem, and which were changed between the years of ca. 394/395 and 419. This dissertation also comprehends an introductory study, in two parts, of the correspondence: first, an interpretation of elements from it in light of the Hellenistic epistolary genre, according to its theory and practice, as described both by Greek and Roman, ancient and christian writers, and by contemporary scholars; afterwards, a historical analysis of the text, supported by studies of the correspondence and modern historiographic scholarship, with emphasis on biographies of our authors, who lived in an age marked by important causes to the development of Latin Patristics, such as the correct interpretation and translation of the Holy Scripture, the battle against heresies, and most importantly the political and social role played by the Church, in the search for a unified, catholic and orthodox christian doctrine during Late Antiquity.
