The aim was to de-characterize the apostolic work carried out by women, and that contributed to build the identity of the female gender, marked by low self-esteem, and as a consequence, by weak empowerment. Aiming at recreating the path of the construction of this image, the author researched selected fundamental texts of Christianity, biblical literature, apocryphal literature as well as the patristic literature, using interpretation keys advocated by the feministic hermeneutics, which allows us to read gender as an analytic category of relationships built on the basis of culture. It was possible to ascertain that, in Maria Magdalen the female archetype was created, the biblical ideal that had to be transported to the concrete aspects of daily life, an apostle whole importance was minimized by the authors of the Canon. / O objetivo desse trabalho é demonstrar que no ocidente cristão a imagem da conhecida personagem bíblica Maria Madalena foi alterada ao longo dos séculos com o objetivo de descaracterizar o apostolado de mulheres, o que contribuiu para a construção da identidade de gênero feminina marcada pela baixa auto estima e, conseqüentemente pelo fraco empoderamento. Com a finalidade de se reconstituir a trajetória dessa construção imagética, foram pesquisados alguns textos fundantes do cristianismo, a literatura bíblica, a literatura apócrifa, e a patrística, utilizando as chaves de interpretação preconizadas pela hermenêutica feminista, que nos permite a leitura de gênero como categoria analítica de relações construídas culturalmente. Verificamos que se personifica, em Maria Madalena, um arquétipo feminino, ideal bíblico a ser transportado para o concreto cotidiano, apóstola cuja importância foi minimizada pelos autores do texto do Cânon.

The Diploma thesis "Devotion and iconography of st. Mary Magdalen" - Two biblical characters have been associated with Mary Magdalene since the time of Gregory the Great; the unnamed sinner and Mary of Bethany. According to the Bible Mary Magdalene was one of the women who accompanied Jesus during His ministry. She was the woman from whom Jesus had cast out seven demons. She washed Jesus' feet with her tears and ointment. When Jesus was crucified she was there standing under the cross. She was present at His funeral. On Easter Sunday she went to the grave of the Lord to anoint His body. She discovered the empty tomb and saw the resurrected Jesus, who appeared to her as a gardener and sent her to announce His Resurrection to His disciples. She is considered "the apostle of the Apostles". According to an old French legend she was put in a boat without sails or oars and sailed to Marseilles, where she preached the gospel. Then she retreated to a cavern. There she lived as a recluse for thirty years. Every day she was lifted by angels up to heaven. She was buried in Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume. Her main cult centers were the places where her relics had been preserved; Vezelay in Burgundy in the Romanesque period , and Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baumesince since the 13th to 18th century. She is usually...

Remote sensing imagery has proven useful in studying the coastal geomorphology of les Iles de la Madeleine. Standard panchromatic photography provided the basis for mapping of the island and aided in the interpretation of the evolution of this tombolo system. This study presents a systematic evaluation of five types of remotely sensed data: (1) colour infrared photography, (2) conventional colour photography, (3) panchromatic photography (red and green bands), (4) black and white infrared photography and (5) thermal line scan imagery as applied to the southern portion of les Iles de la Madeleine. The results of this study have shown that beach investigations are enhanced through the use of multisensor imagery, and that colour infrared provides the best single source for data aquisition. / Thesis / Bachelor of Arts (BA)

Contexte: Le Saint-Laurent abrite une grande diversité de ressources comestibles, mais elles sont largement méconnues. De nos jours, les Québécois consomment principalement des produits marins importés, alors que les quelques espèces pêchées commercialement au Québec sont majoritairement exportées. Pourtant, il est raisonnable de penser que les habitants des communautés longeant le Saint-Laurent ont une relation de proximité aux ressources comestibles du fleuve et une vision de leur valorisation qui mérite d’être entendues. Manger notre Saint-Laurent est un projet de recherche-action multidisciplinaire visant la valorisation des ressources comestibles issues du Saint-Laurent. Objectifs: (1) Analyse critique de la démarche participative utilisée au sein de quatre communautés québécoises dans le cadre du projet Manger notre Saint-Laurent et (2) Analyse des résultats générés. Méthodologie: Quatre communautés ont été identifiées comme acteurs du projet : Cap-Chat, Sainte-Thérèse-de-Gaspé, les Îles de la Madeleine et la Première Nation Wolastoqiyik Wahsipekuk (Malécites de Viger). Un groupe de 10 à 14 participants a été recruté pour chaque communauté. La technique du groupe nominal (TGN) a été utilisée, et une analyse qualitative des transcriptions a été effectuée. Résultats: Les stratégies gagnantes portant sur l’augmentation de l’offre sont l’augmentation de la disponibilité locale sous forme de circuits courts et la promotion de la pêche de subsistance. Les stratégies gagnantes portant sur l’augmentation de la demande sont la découverte par la dégustation, la valorisation de la culture historique des pêches et le marketing éducatif des produits. Certaines espèces émergentes (oursin, algues, phoque) intéressaient particulièrement les participants. Les publics à cibler les plus populaires étaient les jeunes, ainsi que la communauté dans son ensemble. L’analyse qualitative a permis de révéler entre autres la forte identité culturelle de chaque région en lien avec la pêche. De plus, une analyse critique de la TGN révèle entre autres l’importance du recrutement des participants, de l’expérience du facilitateur et la pertinence d’une analyse qualitative pour approfondir les propos. Conclusion: L’échantillon de la population côtière du Saint-Laurent fait consensus que plusieurs ressources comestibles issues du Saint-Laurent gagnent à être plus disponibles et mieux valorisées, et que la communauté entière et particulièrement les jeunes sont à cibler. Cette étude est le premier pas d’un projet de recherche qui permettra qu’en tant que Québécois, nous pourrons Manger notre Saint-Laurent. / Context: The Saint-Lawrence hosts a great variety of edible resources, but they are largely unknown. Quebeckers currently consume mostly imported seafood products whereas the few marine species that are commercially fished in Quebec are mainly exported. However, it is reasonable to assume that habitants along the Saint-Lawrence River have a closer relationship with edible marine resources and a vision for promoting them which deserves to be heard. Manger notre Saint-Laurent (Sustenance from our Saint-Lawrence) is a research-action multidisciplinary project aiming the promotion of edible local marine resources in the Saint-Lawrence. Objectives: (1) Critical analysis of the participatory process used in four communities in Quebec for Manger notre Saint-Laurent, and (2) Analysis of results generated. Methods: Four partner communities have been identified as actors in this project: Cap-Chat, Sainte-Thérèse-de-Gaspé, the Magdalen Islands and the Wolastoqiyik Wahsipekuk (Maliseet Viger) First Nation. A group of 10 to 14 participants from various backgrounds was recruited from each community. The Nominal group technique was used and transcripts were qualitatively analyzed. Results: All communities combined, winning strategies to increase supply were increasing local distribution networks and facilitating sustenance fishing. Winning strategies to increase demand were discovering the products through tasting and cooking, protecting cultural history of fishing, and marketing and educating about the products. Emergent species (sea urchins, algae, seals) particularly interested participants. The most popular target groups were youth and the community as a whole. Qualitative analysis revealed the important cultural ties to fishing in all communities. Also, critical analysis of the method revealed aspects like the importance of correctly recruiting participants, of having an experienced facilitator, and the usefulness of qualitative analysis. Conclusion: Our sample of Saint-Lawrence coastal communities created consensus around many resources that should receive more availability and more promotion, and around target groups that should include everyone in a community while targeting youth. This study is a first step in a research project that will lead to Quebeckers getting Sustenance from our Saint-Lawrence.
