Orientador: Nuno César Pereira de Abreu / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Artes / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-16T22:09:17Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Velasco_DiogoCavalcanti_M.pdf: 950407 bytes, checksum: efdfd5c7569cb154df742f3da3c9809f (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010 / Resumo: O Sertão Nordestino sempre permeou o imaginário do homem brasileiro por meio dos discursos que a história produziu. Vários campos discursivos, como a política, a economia, as ciências sociais e as artes, sedimentaram um universo simbólico acerca desse espaço. Logo, o cinema também contribuiu nessa simbolização, principalmente nos ciclos do Nordestern e do Cinema Novo. Agora, nos anos 2000, ele volta a ter novas correntes de representação cinematográfica. Uma delas se encontra no grupo de produtores do Nordeste, que faz asserções sobre os seus Sertões e os ressignifica de acordo com um mundo contemporâneo globalizado, característico de sua época. A presente pesquisa busca, por meio da metodologia analítica de Pierre Sorlin, mostrar como isso acontece num grupo de quatro filmes: Cinema, Aspirinas e Urubus (Marcelo Gomes, 2005), Árido Movie (Lírio Ferreira, 2006), Céu de Suely (Karim Ainouz, 2006) e Deserto Feliz (Paulo Caldas, 2007) / Abstract: The Sertão Nordestino has always been in Brazilian people imagination through the history discourses that has been produced. Several fields of discourses, like politics, economy, social sciences and arts, created a symbolic universe about this space. Therefore, the Movies also contributed in this symbolization, mainly in the Nordestern and Cinema Novo cycles. Nowadays, in the 2000s, there are new currents of cinematographic representation. One of them is the group of Nordeste that wants to talk about their Sertões and gives them new meanings according to a contemporary globalized world. This present dissertations searches, through the analytical methodology of Pierre Sorlin, to show how this happens in a group of four films: Cinema, Aspirinas e Urubus (Marcelo Gomes, 2005), Árido Movie (Lírio Ferreira, 2006), Céu de Suely (Karim Ainouz, 2006) e Deserto Feliz (Paulo Caldas, 2007) / Mestrado / Mestre em Multimeios

Leishmaniose tegumentar americana (lta) nos municÃpios de Crato, Juazeiro do Norte e Barbalha, Estado do CearÃ, Brasil, 2003 â 2005 / Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (ACL) in the municipalities of Crato, Juazeiro do Norte and Barbalha, State of CearÃ, BRAZIL, 2003 - 2005

JÃlio CÃsar Ferreira da Silva 14 March 2009 (has links)
nÃo hà / As Leishmanioses sÃo protozooses determinadas por protozoÃrios de diferentes espÃcies do gÃnero Leishmania Ross 1903. A Leishmaniose Tegumentar Americana-LTA tem largo espectro de manifestaÃÃes. A LTA no Brasil mostra-se com um padrÃo nÃo mais predominantemente rural, resultado do contato Ãntimo do homem com o ambiente silvestre onde a doenÃa existe naturalmente como zoonose. Atualmente a urbanizaÃÃo da LTA tem mostrado freqÃentemente um aumento da distribuiÃÃo periurbana. A forma cutÃnea à a mais comum dentre as manifestaÃÃes da LTA, as lesÃes produzidas sÃo em geral indolores, podendo apresentar-se de forma assintomÃtica ou sub-clÃnica. Este estudo teve como objetivo geral descrever os principais aspectos clÃnicos e epidemiolÃgicos da LTA nos municÃpios de Crato, Juazeiro do Norte e Barbalha a partir das fichas de investigaÃÃo do Sistema Nacional de Agravos de NotificaÃÃo (SINAN), geradas no perÃodo de 2003 a 2005. Desse perÃodo, selecionamos 300 fichas de pacientes segundo critÃrios de inclusÃo e exclusÃo definidos na metodologia, sendo 136 do municÃpio do Crato, 98 do municÃpio de Barbalha e 66 do municÃpio de Juazeiro do Norte. A maioria, 53,7 % (137/300) era procedente da zona Rural, porÃm quando analisados isoladamente o municÃpio de Juazeiro do Norte mostrou somente12,2 % ( 8/66 ) dos casos na zona rural. Nessa pesquisa os casos autÃctones foram 99 % (295/300). Prevaleceu o sexo masculino, 51 % (153/300), novamente, de forma isolada o municÃpio de Juazeiro do Norte apresentou uma inversÃo dessa relaÃÃo. A ocupaÃÃo/ramo de atividade dominante em 23 % (69/300) foi de estudantes, seguido de aposentados e agricultores com 16 % (48/300) cada um. A forma clÃnica em destaque foi a cutÃnea com 97 % (291/300). Registramos 69 ocorrÃncias do vetor, dessas, 51 foram no intradomicilio. Para diagnÃstico foram utilizados os exames: parasitolÃgico direto da lesÃo, a intradermorreaÃÃo de Montenegro (IDR) e o histopatolÃgico. O exame parasitolÃgico direto apresentou-se positivo em 19 % (57/300), negativo em 2 % (6/300). A IDR foi reativa em 41 % (123/300), e nÃo reativa em 2 % (6/300). O histopatolÃgico 16 % (49/300) mostrou-se positivo, 3,3 %(10/300) dos casos eram compatÃveis com LTA. ConcluÃmos que a LTA à uma patologia importante no Cariri, comportando-se de forma endÃmica e com caracterÃsticas. / Leishmaniasis is a protozoal disease caused by different species of Leishmania ROSS 1903. In Brazil, American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis (ATL) is no longer predominantly a rural phenomenon, due to the proximity of man to nature, where the disease occurs naturally as a zoonosis, but is now spreading to periurban areas. ATl occurs frequently in the cutaneous form with mostly painless soresor may be asymptomatic or subclinical. The objective of the present study was to describe the main clinical and epidemiological aspects of ATL, in three municipalities in Northeastern Brazil on records of the SINAN disease reporting system covering the period 2003 â 2005. The records of 300 patients were included in the study ( Crato n=136; Juazeiro do Norte n=66; Barbalha n=98). On the average, 53,7% ( 137/300) of the cases Were from the rural zone, with only 12,2% (8/66) registered for Juazeiro do Norte. Autochthonous cases accounted for 99% (295/300). Fifty-one percent (153/300) of the patients were male. Overall, 23% (69/300) were students, 16% (48/300) were formers and 16% (48/300) were retirees. The most common clinical presentations was cutaneous (97%; 291/300), sixty-nine records registered the vector, 51 of wich collected in patients home. In conclusion, ATL is a important endemie pathology in the region.

Análise ex-ante do fundo constitucional de financiamento do Nordeste: uma aplicação de equilíbrio geral computável / Analysis of the northeastern constitutional financing fund: a computable general equilibrium application

Thiago Oliveira Nascimento 21 September 2017 (has links)
O Brasil tem na desigualdade regional um tema que historicamente recebe bastante atenção por parte dos pesquisadores e das formulações de políticas públicas. Regiões mais vulneráveis do país são alvos de iniciativas que tentam amenizar o problema da disparidade econômica. Dentre os instrumentos utilizados, o Fundo Constitucional de Financiamento do Nordeste (FNE) foi criado pela Constituição de 1988 com o intuito de combater as desigualdades intra e inter-regionais na região nordestina. O presente estudo se propõe a avaliar a eficácia do FNE como instrumento de política de combate às desigualdades regionais no Brasil aplicando uma metodologia de equilíbrio geral computável. A retirada do FNE e a realocação do montante do fundo em gastos correntes resultariam em queda no PIB e aumento da concentração da atividade e da desigualdade do PIB per capita, indicando que o FNE funcionaria como indutor de crescimento e cumpriria o objetivo de reduzir a desigualdade entre o Nordeste e o Brasil. / Brazil has in regional inequality a subject that historically receives a lot of attention from the researchers and policy makers. The most vulnerable regions in Brazil received initiatives that attempt to attenuate the problem of economic disparity. Among the instruments used, the Northeastern Constitutional Financing Fund was created by the Constitution with the aim of fight against intra and interregional inequalities in the Northeastern region. The present study proposes to evaluate the efficiency of the fund as an instrument of combatant policy of regional inequalities in the Northeast region applying a methodology of computable general equilibrium. The estimation of the scenario with no existence of the fund and its reallocation in government demand implies that income and investment decreases, together with higher concentration of production and inequality of GDP per capita.

Regional Growth and Northeastern Ontario Development: An Analysis of Factor Costs in Manufacturing Activity

Saare, Christian 05 1900 (has links)
Regional growth literature indicates that the relations between the core and the peripheral regions, and the process by which growth is transmitted between regions are of prime importance in discussing growth disparities. Northeastern Ontario is a peripheral region, economic­ally subordinate to the Ontario core region, and exhibits ad­verse growth conditions. Diversification of the region's resource dependent economy has been called for by many groups but has been hindered by the perception of higher manufacturing production costs, However, these costs have not been investigated. In this thesis, Northeastern Ontario centers' factor costs in manufacturing are compared with core centers' costs by utilizing a cost accounting method. The results indicate that some Northeastern locations may be cost attractive locations. However, low costs derived for Toronto would indicate continued manufacturing concentration in the principle centers of the core region. When costs are calculated for hypothetical firms, the importance of the factor requirement structure is indicated in determining location. Northeastern locations would be attractive to firms with large land, and low labour requirements. If future analyses verify these results, alternative explanations of the development problem of the Northeast should be explored. / Thesis / Master of Arts (MA)

An Integrated Geological, Geochemical and Petrogenetic Study of a Part of the Archean Larder Lake Group at the Adams Mine, Northeastern Ontario

McRoberts, Gordon David January 1986 (has links)
The thesis map area is located in northeastern Ontario in and west of the Adams Mine site. The Adams Mine produces iron ore and is situated 15 km southeast of the town of Kirkland Lake. Kirkland Lake is the largest population centre in the Kirkland Lake-Larder Lake gold camp. The Adams Mine lies south of this camp. The thesis map area is underlain by volcanics (most of which are komatiitic), clastic, chemical and pelitic sediments and various intrusives (peridotite sills, layered peridotite-gabbro and gabbro sills, discordant gabbro bodies, alkali-rich dykes and diabase dykes. The syenitic Lebel Stock forms the northern boundary of the map area. The map area lies entirely within the Larder Lake Group which forms the lower part of the second major volcanic cycle (cycle II) in the Archean aged Abitibi greenstone belt. The Kinojevis and Blake River Groups overlie the Larder Lake Group north of Kirkland Lake and are also part of cycle II. The Skead Group constitutes the upper most part of cycle I. The top of this group marks the southern boundary of the map area. The fold axis of the Lebel Syncline passes through the northern half of the map area. This fold is isoclinal and has no plunge. The fold axis and the stratigraphy are broadly conformable to the shape of the Lebel Stock. Tight folds with north-south trending axial surface traces and a drag fold occur on the south limb of the Lebel Syncline. The Lebel Syncline and these second-order folds are believed to pre-date Intrusion of the Lebel Stock. The stock may have modified the trend of the Lebel Syncline fold axis so that it and the strata parallel the stock's shape. Five faults with unknown but apparently little displacement were recognized. Faulting is not prominent in the map area. The northern half of the map area has been metamorphosed to the hornblende hornfels facies. This occurred during contact metamorphism following intrusion of the Lebel Stock. Greenschist facies mineralogy is present in the southern half of the map area and developed during an earlier regional metamorphic event. There are eight volcanic sequences on the south limb of the Lebel Syncline. Seven of these are komatiitic. There are three komatiitic sequences on the north limb. Komatiitic sequences are characterized by volcanic flows which show decreases in MgO contents stratigraphically upwards. Komatiites occur at the base of each sequence and are overlain by one or more of high MgO komatiitic basalt, high MgO komatiitic andesite, low MgO komatiitic basalt, low MgO komatiitic andesite, low komatiitic dacite, high A12O3 komatiitic basalt, andesite and dacite and high Fe2O3, Α12Ο3 komatiitic basalt. . Most low MgO komatiitic basalts and andesites on the south limb of the Lebel Syncline have anomously high Cr (>1000 ppm) and Ni (>200 ppm) contents when compared to similar lithologies in other Archean terranes. The high Cr abundances are linked to high chromite contents. Sequences with Cr and Ni-rich volcanics do not contain high A12O3 komatiitic volcanics; the latter have low Cr (approximately 400 ppm) and Ni (approximately 80 ppm) contents. High Fe2O3, Α12Ο3 komatiitic basalt occurs in sequences with high A12O3 komatiitic basalts. High Α120β and high Fe203, Al203 komatiitic basalts are not found in other Archean terranes. Cr and Ni-rich komatiitic volcanics are found in Destor Township in Quebec (within the Abitibi greenstone belt). They are not otherwise found. Sequence 1 basalts are regarded as tholeiitic or calc-alkalic. There are no ultramafic or high MgO flows in this sequence and lithological variation with stratigraphic height is not observed. The high Cr and Ni contents in the komatiitic basalts and andesites are explained by rapid cooling in a magma chamber. This process stops or reduces olivine and chromite crystallization in the magma as it reaches a MgO content of 12 % to 15 %. The residual magma is thus enriched in Cr and Ni. The production of high komatiitic volcanics can also be explained by rapid cooling in a magma chamber. This process lowers the temperature of plagioclase crystallization resulting in A12O3 enrichment in the magma. Many of the sedimentary rocks in the map area are deposits from submarine debris flows and turbidity currents. The flow mechanism is not known for massive sandstones. The presence of conglomerates (debris flow deposits) suggests a proximal depositional environment, using a submarine fan model. The source area is comprised of sedimentary, volcanic and plutonic lithologies. Peridotite sills are believed to syn-volcanic with komatiitic volcanism. Peridotite-gabbro and gabbro sills are likely syn-volcanic with tholeiitic volcanism now preserved in the Kinojevis Group north of Kirkland Lake. The discordant gabbro Intrusions are believed to be syn- volcanic with calc-alkalic volcanism now preserved in the Blake River Group north of Kirkland Lake. Lateral equivalents to both groups may have once overlain the Larder Lake Group but have since been eroded. This is consistent with the fact that higher metamorphic grades prevail south of the Larder Lake Break. The sills and discordant gabbros were emplaced prior to regional metamorphism. The Lebel Stock, syenite, biotite lamphrophyre, feldspar porphyry and diabase dykes were emplaced following deformation and greenschist metamorphism. The alkali-rich intrusions are likely contemporaneous with Archean trachytic volcanism now preserved in the Timiskaming Group. / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc)

The Function of -ji in Gugu-Yalanji

Ware, Janice A. (Janice Anne) 08 1900 (has links)
This thesis examines the diverse functions of -ji in Gugu- Yalanji, a language of Northeastern Australia. A general introduction to the syntax of the language is given. The verbal affix -Ji and its effect on sentences is detailed in Chapter I. Chapter II shows that the function of -ji_ in Yidiny and Dyirbal, two neighboring languages, is to intransitivize verbs to allow sentence coordination. Sentence coordination does not appear to be the primary function of Ji in Gugu-Yalanji. Other functions of the verbal affix J_ in Yidin and Dyirbal are examined in Chapter III. The affix -_ appears to be sensitive to the features of transitivity and marks transitive verbs as intransitive, shown in Chapter IV. Chapter V develops a new hypothesis regarding the use of -j in Gugu-Yalanji. There, after considering other uses of J as a nonverbal affix, it is concluded that the suffix is actually a formal mark of stativity.
