À l’ère de la mondialisation institutionnelle des sociétés modernes, alors que la confluence d’une myriade d’influences à la fois micro et macro-contextuelles complexifient le panorama sociopolitique international, l’intégration de l’idéal participatif par les processus de démocratisation de la santé publique acquiert l’apparence d’une stratégie organisationnelle promouvant la cohésion des multiples initiatives qui se tissent simultanément aux échelles locale et globale. L’actualisation constante des savoirs contemporains par les divers secteurs sociétaux ainsi que la perception sociale de différents risques conduisent à la prise de conscience des limites de la compétence technique des systèmes experts associés au domaine de la santé et des services sociaux. La santé publique, une des responsables légitimes de la gestion des risques modernes à l’échelle internationale, fait la promotion de la création d’espaces participatifs permettant l’interaction mutuelle d’acteurs intersectoriels et de savoirs multiples constamment modifiables. Il s’agit là d’une stratégie de relocalisation institutionnelle de l’action collective afin de rétablir la confiance envers la fiabilité des représentants de la santé publique internationale, qui ne répondent que partiellement aux besoins actuels de la sécurité populationnelle. Dans ce contexte, les conseils locaux de santé (CLS), mis en place à l’échelle internationale dans le cadre des politiques régionales de décentralisation des soins de santé primaires (SSP), représentent ainsi des espaces participatifs intéressants qui renferment dans leur fonctionnement tout un univers de forces de tension paradoxales. Ils nous permettent d’examiner la relation de caractère réciproque existant entre, d’une part, une approche plus empirique par l’analyse en profondeur des pratiques participatives (PP) plus spécifiques et, d’autre part, une compréhension conceptuelle de la mondialisation institutionnelle qui définit les tendances expansionnistes très générales des sociétés contemporaines. À l’aide du modèle de la transition organisationnelle (MTO), nous considérons que les PP intégrées à la gouverne des CLS sont potentiellement porteuses de changement organisationnel, dans le sens où elles sont la condition et la conséquence de nombreuses traductions stratégiques et systémiques essentiellement transformatrices. Or, pour qu’une telle transformation puisse s’accomplir, il est nécessaire de développer les compétences participatives pertinentes, ce qui confère au phénomène participatif la connotation d’apprentissage organisationnel de nouvelles formes d’action et d’intervention collectives. Notre modèle conceptuel semble fournir un ensemble de considérations épistémosociales fort intéressantes et très prometteuses permettant d’examiner en profondeur les dimensions nécessaires d’un renouvellement organisationnel de la participation dans le champ complexe de la santé publique internationale. Il permet de concevoir les interventions complexes comme des réseaux épistémiques de pratiques participatives (RÉPP) rassemblant des acteurs très diversifiés qui s’organisent autour d’un processus de conceptualisation transculturelle de connaissances ainsi que d’opérationnalisation intersectorielle des actions, et ce, par un ensemble de mécanismes d’instrumentalisation organisationnelle de l’apprentissage. De cette façon, le MTO ainsi que la notion de RÉPP permettent de mieux comprendre la création de passages incessants entre l’intégration locale des PP dans la gouverne des interventions complexes de la santé et des services sociaux – tels que les CLS –, et les processus plus larges de réorganisation démocratique de la santé publique dans le contexte global de la mondialisation institutionnelle. Cela pourrait certainement nous aider à construire collectivement l’expression réflexive et manifeste des valeurs démocratiques proposées dans la Déclaration d’Alma-Ata, publiée en 1978, lors de la première Conférence internationale sur les SSP. / In an age of the institutional globalization of modern societies, the confluence of a myriad of micro- and macro-contextual factors complicates the international socio-political arena. In this context, the integration of participatory values through the democratization processes of Public Health takes on the appearance of an organizational strategy promoting cohesion among a multitude of local and global initiatives. The constant renewal of intersectoral knowledge and the social perception of risk suggest an increased social awareness regarding the limits of technical competence of social and healthcare Systems. As a legitimate international actor in the management of modern health risks, Public Health creates participatory spaces that enable interaction of intersectoral actors and constantly changing and dynamic knowledge. It is indeed a strategy of the institutional “relocalisation” of collective action, aiming to restore trust in the level of reliability of international Public Health representatives who only partially meet the current needs of population security. In this context, Local Health Councils (LHC), implemented internationally as part of decentralized Primary Health Care (PHC) regional policies, represent participative spaces that involve countless paradoxical forces of tension. The LHC provides both an opportunity to examine the reciprocal relationship between an in-depth empirical analysis of specific participatory practices (PP), as well as a conceptual comprehension of the institutional globalization defining the general expansionist tendencies of modern societies. Using the organizational transition model (OTM), we postulate that the integration of PP into LHC governance is potentially associated with organizational change in creating both the conditions and the consequences of numerous strategic and systemic translations, which are essentially transformative. However, in order for this transformation to occur, relevant participative skills need to be developed. Consequently, this participative phenomenon takes on the shape of an organizational learning process allowing new forms of collective action and intervention to be accomplished. Our conceptual model offers a set of interesting and promising “epistemosocial” considerations for an in-depth examination of the dimensions essential for an organizational renewal of participation in the complex field of Global Health. Through the OTM, we conceive complex interventions as epistemic networks of participative practices (ENPP) composed of a wide range of actors organized around a double process of transcultural conceptualization of knowledge and inter-sector operationalization of action. This process is possible through a set of mechanisms of organizational instrumentation of learning. In this way, the OTM and the concept of ENPP allow for a better understanding of the unceasing transition between the local integration of PP in the governance of complex interventions in the field of health and social services – such as LCH – and the broader processes of democratic reorganization of Public Health in a global context of institutional globalization. This could certainly help us to collectively construct a reflexive and manifest expression of democratic values proposed in Alma-Ata Declaration published in 1978 during the first International Conference on PHC.

Considérant les effets négatifs sur le développement des enfants associées à l'utilisation de châtiments corporels, un ensemble considérable de la recherche a tenté de proposer une avenue pour interrompre le cercle vicieux de la violence intergénérationnelle. Toutefois, on pourrait argumenter qu`une limitation majeure dans la plupart de ces études réside dans le fait que très peu d`entre eux ont eu comme but d`investiguer l'importance d`une troisième variable comme le sentiment de mériter le châtiment, les explications reçues sur l`équité de la peine imposée ou les attitudes qu`une personne peut garder envers cette méthode éducative. En utilisant la modélisation d'équations structurelles, la présente étude a démontré que la relation apparente entre les variables subjectives et sociodémographiques liés à l`expérience de la punition corporelle et l`intention de faire recours à cette méthode éducative en tant que parent est en fait expliquée par le rôle de médiation joué par d'autres variables telles que les attitudes à l'égard de châtiments corporels, le type de châtiments corporels, la façon dont le châtiment a été perçu par le sujet et les raisons données par l'agent pour motiver la peine infligée. La thèse principale avancée par le présent étude est à l`effet qu`une fois le rôle d`une troisième variable est considéré dans l`équation (par exemple, l'attitude envers les châtiments corporels), l'apparente relation entre les variables objectives et les résultats final, soit l`intention de recourir a la punition corporelle, disparaît. Plus précisément, comme il en résulte de l’analyse de modélisation, ce sont les médiateurs qui expliquent toute association possible entre les variables objectives et l`intention d'utiliser les châtiments corporels. C'est-à-dire, un modèle qui ne contiennent aucune liaison directe entre les variables objectives, et directement mésurables (c'est-à-dire l`âgé lors de la punition, le fait d'être un immigrant, la fréquence de la peine, le nombre d'objets utilisés, le nombre d`agents punisseurs, le sexe) et l'intention d'utiliser les châtiments corporels correspond aux données. De surcroît, parmi les quatre médiateurs pris en compte dans notre modèle, ce sont les opinions à l`égard de la punition corporelle qui possèdent la meilleure capacité prédictive en ce qui a trait à l`intention de recourir aux châtiments corporels. Finalement, afin d'étudier le profil des différences entre les sujets en fonction de leurs expériences passées avec les châtiments corporels, les explications reçues pour la peine, et leurs attitudes, une analyse par groupe a été employée. Bref, une solution en quatre groupes faisant des distinctions significatives entre les groupes a été choisie. / Considering the negative developmental findings associated with the use of parental corporal punishment, a considerable body of research has attempted to suggest an avenue for interrupting this vicious cycle of intergenerational violence. However, a major limitation in most of these studies has to do with the fact that very few of them has looked at the influence of a third variable such as the use of explanation, perceived fairness and deservedness of punishment, or the attitudes one has towards corporal punishment. By employing structural equation modelling (SEM), the present study has demonstrated that the apparent relationship between subjective and socio-demographic variables related to corporal punishment and latter intention to use it as a parent is in fact explained by the mediating role of other variables such as attitudes towards corporal punishment, type of corporal punishment, perceived reasons for punishment and reasons given for punishment by the agent. Our main contention was that when a third variable (e.g., attitude towards corporal punishment) is included in the equation, the apparent relationship between punishment variables and outcome disappears. More specifically, as it has resulted from the SEM analysis, the mediating variables explain all of the association between the objective variables and intention to use corporal punishment. That is to say, a model containing no direct paths from the independent variables (i.e., number of ages punished, being an immigrant, frequency of punishment, means of administration of corporal punishment , number of punishing agents, sex) to Intention to Use Corporal Punishment fits the data. Moreover, among the four mediators considered in our model only the attitudinal measures make a significant contribution to the prediction of intention to use corporal punishment. In addition, in order to explore the profile of differences between subjects on their past experiences with corporal punishment, explanations for punishment, and present attitudes, cluster analysis was employed. Finally, a four cluster solution that made meaningful distinctions between groups was selected for consideration. / Les analyses statistiques ont été réalisées avec le logiciels SPSS 11.0(Statistical Package for Social Sciences) et AMOS 6 (Analysis of Moment Structures.

A number of previous studies have examined lay counsellor training within a modernist paradigm. By contrast, this study collaboratively presents ways of training pastoral caregivers using a participatory approach to practical theology and pastoral care in the postmodern time in which we live. The research journey starts from the premise that postmodernity calls for the mediation of a new approach to practising theology, pastoral care and giving authority to ordinary members of the church through training in pastoral work. This work therefore describes Participatory Pastoral Care (PPC) training as a suggested way to train people of God to use participatory approaches. The research journey also explores how the PPC training constructions they participated in brought about transformations in the co-researchers' lives, relationships, caring practices and the societies in which they live. This practical theology research document introduces the participants as co-researchers and theologians. The recollections shared by the participants reveal a rich variety of stories as these participants reflect on their lives, caring practices and faith journeys. This research document is viewed through the lens of a postmodern epistemology that builds on social constructionist and poststructuralist perspectives. Thirty-three participants embarked on this feminist narrative participatory action research journey, not only to tell their stories, but also to negotiate and challenge ways of training pastoral caregivers within a participatory practical theological and pastoral approach. This research document informs the church, theological institutions and broader caregiver practices through narratives about what the participating members of various congregations find helpful in the co-construction of participatory pastoral training and what they do not find helpful. The methods used to gather the recollections of the participants were multiple reflexive conversations and the discussion of a semi-structured questionnaire. This research journey therefore offers a deeper understanding of the experience of being part of a postmodern construction of training for participatory pastoral caregivers that has the transformation of society as its theological aim. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / D.Th.

Nous considérons que tout individu a une expérience à produire. Mais quel usage en fait-il ? La Validation des acquis de l’expérience propose ainsi de faire un retour de son expérience par une approche réflexive. Néanmoins, ne devons-nous pas nous interroger sur l’intérêt pour un être humain de s’engager dans un processus aussi long, aussi rigoureux et aussi générateur de changements ? Nous servir d’un ensemble de repères historiques, juridiques, philosophiques et de recherches scientifiques (en Sciences de l’éducation, en Sociologie), nous a paru être fondamental pour pouvoir mieux cerner la validité et la légitimité d’un dispositif comme celui de la Validation des acquis de l’expérience dans les pratiques professionnelles, en l’occurrence dans le secteur social et médico-social. L’objectif principal de cette étude qualitative et empirique est de mettre en exergue les effets transformateurs du dispositif de la Validation des acquis de l’expérience aussi bien sur les candidats que sur les autres acteurs. Nous avons ainsi, analysé les données inscrites dans le journal de bord au cours de l’observation in situ, et celles issues des 20 entretiens semi-directifs. Les résultats de cette recherche montrent la nécessité de concevoir le travail social et médico-social, à partir d’un processus de changement inéluctable, s’opérant chez le candidat à la Validation des acquis de l’expérience, tout en modifiant aussi bien, le fonctionnement institutionnel, que le positionnement des autres acteurs qui le composent. / Every individual has benefitted from some kind of experience (professional or personal).The question is what does one draw from experience ? The Accreditation of previous learning proposes an approach that evaluates this previous experience using a set of historic, legal and philosophical markers. Within the Accreditation of previous learning framework, it is possible to assess the validity and the legitimacy of an action plan concerning professional practices. My dissertation applies this approach to the social and medical-social sector. The Accreditation of previous learning could be considered as a relatively recent training system which could eventually influence other types of training courses and the actors involved in them.The main objective of this qualitative and empirical study is to highlight the effects of the Accreditation of previous learning plan on the candidates as well as on other actors. I analysed the data recorded in the logbook during in situ observation, and the result of twenty semi-directive interviews. The research results show the necessity of designing social and medical-social work, from the perspective of a process of inevitable change, taking place in the candidate’s for the Accreditation of previous learning, and of modifying the way social and medical-social institutions work as well as the way actors participate in them. / Consideramos que todo individuo tiene una experiencia que aplicar. Pero ¿ cómo lo hace ? El Procedimiento de evaluación y acreditación de las competencias profesionales (P.E.A.C) implica dar una vuelta por un enfoque reflexivo de la experiencia. Sin embargo, ¿ no deberíamos interrogarnos sobre el interés que pueda tener un ser humano en embarcarse en un proceso tan largo, tan riguroso y que genera tantos cambios? Servirnos de un conjunto de indicaciones históricas, jurídicas y filosóficas y de investigaciones científicas (en Ciencias de la Educación, en Sociología), nos apareció fundamental para poder cercar mejor la validez y la legitimidad de un dispositivo como el del P.E.A.C en las prácticas profesionales, en este caso en el sector social y médico social.El objetivo principal de este estudio cualitativo y empírico es poner de relieve los efectos transformadores del dispositivo del P.E.A.C tanto sobre los candidatos como sobre otros actores. De este modo, hemos analizando los datos del diario de abordo en el transcurso de la observación in situ, y los obtenidos de las veinte entrevistas a subdirectivos. Los resultados de esta investigación muestran la necesidad de concebir el trabajo social y médico social a través de un proceso de cambio ineluctable que se produce en el candidato del P.E.A.C, modificando no solamente el funcionamiento institucional, sino el posicionamiento de otros actores que intervienen.

The aim of this investigation was to determine the modes of thinking and learning of South African disadvantaged learners as well as to discover whether the teaching methods used by their teachers, encourage diverse cognitive skills and learning styles amongst learners. A survey of existing literature on this subject identifies a number of theories that indicate that learners come to school with diverse modes of thinking and learning. Furthermore, existing literature, indicate that educationally disadvantaged learners tend towards a Field Dependent, socially orientated mode of cognitive processing and a largely visual and kinaesthetic mode of sensory processing information. Research also reveals that teaching methods and teacher expectation of learner potential play a vital role in the academic achievement of disadvantaged learners. Teachers tend to have lower expectations of the academic potential of disadvantaged learners. Moreover, teachers tend to favour teaching methods that meet the needs of learners who use Field Independent cognitive and Auditory sensory processing. Another aspect acknowledged in existing literature that influences the academic achievement of disadvantaged learners is the role of family and the community. Disadvantaged learners generally do not have the support and security of a stable home and are frequently exposed to violence and an educationally impoverished environment. Parents and guardians tend to be less involved in the education of their children. Disadvantaged learners who were part of this empirical study conducted in the Ekhuruleni Metropolitan area, east of Johannesburg, South Africa, showed a more concrete approach to academic activities and revealed a tendency towards Field Dependency and a visual and kinaesthetic sensory approach to processing information. Learners preferred more frequent social interaction during academic activities. The study also found that the teaching method most commonly used in the geographical area mentioned above, took the form of lecturing or `chalk-and-talk' and that teaching aids generally took the form of worksheets. Hence the teaching approach most used by teachers in the study, did not address the modes of thinking and learning of disadvantaged learners in the schools that participated in the empirical study and generally did not encourage deeper cognitive structures. / Educational Studies / D.

Text in English / This research explores the meaning of the first and second-order therapeutic stances with reference to the therapist's professional and personal development. The dominant positivist paradigm was reflected in the therapist's initial position of expert observer, outside of the observed. The observed phenomena were a group of children suffering from thalassemia major, a terminal genetic disease, and their mothers. The initial idea of short-term intervention and focus on the observed evolved into six-year journey where the observer and the observed became an interconnected unit of observation, understanding and change. A first-order stance led to therapeutic stuckness, where the therapist's confrontation with her therapeutic failure and the limitations of the dominant paradigm provoked a deconstruction of the expert position and promoted a self-reflexive therapeutic stance. The author's self-searching process took her back to her personal self, her family of origin and the ''wounded healer". The researcher moved from an initial disconnection between her professional and personal selves to an awareness of the interface between the two and, ultimately, to a unification of her professional and personal selves. Such development involved an individuation process moving from a narcissistic belief in her objective stance towards a therapeutic stance where she sees herself less as a powerful agent of change and moves to an increasingly higher order of integration of the professional and personal selves (Skovholt & Ronnestad, 1992). The process with the children and mothers shifted from a focus on compliance and medical issues to more personal and emotional stories. The therapist's participation and collaborative stance created a context for change, where greatly improved medical compliance was just one of the many transformations experienced by all the participants. The researcher speculates that development of a second-order stance requires second-order change, which comes "at the end of long, often frustrating mental and emotional labor" (Watzlawick et al., 1974, p. 23), promoting integration between the professional and personal selves of the therapist. The researcher therefore contends that this process has important implications for psychotherapy training, supervision and continuing education. / Psychology / D. Litt. et Phil. (Psychology)

Embasando-se nas ideias de Meirieu sobre saber e fazer docentes, por meio da avaliação da aplicabilidade de suas ferramentas, objetivou-se oferecer às professoras possibilidade de melhor percepção em relação aos seus conhecimentos e suscitar o desejo de modificação em alguns aspectos de suas intervenções pedagógica e afetiva. São participantes três professoras do Ciclo I do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública estadual da região periférica da cidade de Araraquara-SP. A sequência do procedimento de coleta de dados constituiu-se de entrevista inicial, filmagem de cenas das aulas, encontros de visionamento e interação reflexiva, filmagem de uma aula e entrevista final. Os dados foram analisados em níveis: o primeiro nível partiu dos encontros de visionamento e interação reflexiva, por ferramenta; o segundo cuidou da aula final; o terceiro comparou os dados das entrevistas inicial e final e o quarto referiu-se ao uso das ferramentas. No primeiro nível, os dados revelam que, no decorrer dos visionamentos, as professoras foram analisando e reelaborando suas concepções e convicções e promoveram mudança metodológica em suas aulas. Na análise da aula final, na qual foi solicitado que planejassem a aplicação das ferramentas exploradas ao longo da pesquisa, foi observado que todas estavam presentes, embora algumas se apresentassem de forma mais explicita e acentuada e outras estivessem menos elaboradas e clarificadas. A análise da comparação das entrevistas inicial e final indica situações de permanência, de ruptura e de construção de novas concepções a respeito do bom professor, sendo a professora Beta a que mais expressou situações de permanência e a professora Creta a que mais se encontrou... / The present action research took place due to master´s program studies which showed well succeeded actions from teachers with their students. Based on Meirieu´s ideas on teaching knowledge and doing, through the evaluation of how applicable his tools were, it was objected to offer to teachers the possibility of a better perception in relation to their own knowledge and also to bring about the desire of modifying some of their pedagogical and affective interventions. Three teachers from Ensino Fundamental – Ciclo l from a public state school in the suburbs of Araraquara –SP are participating. The procedure for data collecting happened in initial interview, pieces of classes recording, watching and reflexive interaction, whole class recording and final interview. The data collected was analyzed in different levels: the first one was about the meetings on watching and reflexive interaction, as a tool; the second one was about the final class; the third one compared the data from the initial and final interviews, and the fourth one referred to the use of tools. In the first level, the data shows that throughout the watching sessions the teachers could analyze and rethink their convictions and beliefs, and promote methodological changes in their classes. During the analyses of the final class, in which it was asked for the teachers to plan the application of the tools which were explored during this research, it was noticed that all tools were present, though some of them were more explicit and others were less elaborated or clear. The comparative analyses between the initial and final interviews indicates situations of steadiness, of rupture and of construction of new conceptions regarding a good teacher, being BETA teacher the one who showed more steadiness situations, and CRETA teacher the one who found herself in more situations of rupture and construction of new conceptions...

Cette thèse s’inscrit dans le cadre des travaux de révision de la structure de la racine sémitique en général, et arabe en particulier. Dans l’introduction, nous avons entamé une relecture critique des efforts des grammairiens arabes en quête du seuil minimal du sens, et qui ont abouti à poser la racine trilitère comme étant ce seuil ultime et inanalysable. Ce choix a été fait malgré tous les signes d’instabilité que comporte ce concept - tels que son incapacité à expliquer la réversibilité de l’ordre des consonnes et leur variation phonétique indépendamment du sens. C’est un choix synchronique anhistorique qui exclut la notion de temps, et émane d’une conception révélationniste (tawqîf) du langage. Au XIXe siècle, l'évolutionnisme darwiniste, étendu à la philologie, met à mal cette conception figée de la racine. En intégrant la notion de temps, nombre d’Orientalistes, suivis par quelques philologues arabes de l’époque, ont montré à travers une approche comparative que la racine trilitère est une forme évoluée d’une base primitive bilitère (ou monosyllabique). Depuis, plusieurs explications ont été proposées pour la formation de la racine trilitère à partir d’une base bilitère (croisement, incrémentation, affixation). Certains linguistes comme Hurwitz ont essayé d’identifier et de systématiser par déduction les éléments ternaires et leurs valeurs sémantiques. Dans notre travail, qui s'inscrit dans le cadre de la théorie des matrices et des étymons, nous démontrons à travers l’analyse synchronique de près de 1000 items que la racine trilitère est analysable en termes d’étymons bilitères et de créments, ou affixes. Les éléments affixables ou incrémentables à la base sont phonétiquement les mêmes (gutturales, sonantes, labiales, nasales) et corrélés souvent aux mêmes valeurs grammaticales (factitif, statif, moyen) ou sémantiques (l’intensif). La troisième position de la racine est la position privilégiée dans ce processus d’affixation/incrémentation. La racine trilitère n’est donc pas le seuil minimal du sens, et s’avère réductible à une base biconsonantique rendue trilitère grâce à un segment crément ou affixe. Ceci peut avoir un effet sur notre conception du lexique arabe, désormais réorganisable autour des bases bilitères soit abstraites (les traits phonétiques), soit concrètes (les étymons primitifs), qui sont à leur tour transformables en radicaux trilitères grâce à une liste préalable de créments et affixes spécifiant la signification primordiale véhiculée par la base bilitère. / This thesis is part of the revisionist work on the structure of the Semitic root in general, and the Arabic root in particular. In the introduction, we present a critical review of the efforts of Arab grammarians in their quest of a minimum linguistic threshold associated with meaning, a quest that resulted in establishing the triliteral root as the ultimate unanalysable unit. This choice was made despite the many obvious shortcomings of this theoretical framework, such as its inability to explain the reversal of the order of consonants, or their phonetic variation (regardless of its meaning). It is an anhistorical, synchronic choice that excludes the notion of time, and finds its roots in a revelationnist (tawqîf) linguistic framework. In the end of the nineteenth century, the extended Darwinist theory has undermined this static conception of the root. By integrating the notion of time, a number of Orientalists - followed by some Arab philologists of that period - showed, through a comparative methodology, that the triliteral root has evolved from a primitive monosyllabic (or biconsonantal) root. Since then, several explanations have been proposed for the formation of the triliteral root from a biliteral base (crossed bilateral roots, affixation of formative increments or determinatives).Some linguists, such as Hurwitz, tried to identify and to systematize by deduction the ternary elements and their semantic values. In this work, which is carried within the framework of the Matrix and Etymons Theory , we demonstrate through the synchronic analysis of nearly 1,000 trilateral items that the triliteral root is analyzable in terms of biliteral etymons and of separable increments or affixes added at the beginning (prefixation), the middle (infixation) or the end (suffixation) of bilateral bases.The characteristic elements that can be affixed or incremented on the base are phonetically similar (gutturals, sonorants, labial, and some dentals) and correlated often with the same grammatical (factitive, stative, reflexive or middle voice) or semantic (intensive) values. The third position of the root is the position favored in this process of affixation / incrementation. Thus, the triliteral root is not the minimal threshold of meaning, and can be broken down to a biconsonantal base, which became triliteral thanks to an incremental or affixal segment. These findings may affect our perception of the Arabic lexicon, which can now be rearranged around biliterals bases, either abstract ( i.e. phonetic features), or concrete (i.e. historical primitive etymons) that are in turn convertible into triliteral radicals through a preliminary list increments and affixes that specify the primary meaning conveyed by the bilateral base.

[pt] Esta dissertação tem como objetivo apresentar uma leitura das crônicas de Rubem Braga a partir do contato com o arquivo do escritor. Procurei delinear minha leitura destacando as cartas recebidas pelo escritor, tanto as de leitores quanto as de literatos. Paralelamente, voltei o foco para depoimentos e entrevistas do cronista e artigos sobre ele publicados na imprensa jornalística. Mesmo lendo as crônicas publicadas em livro, foi pela ótica do leitor empírico de jornal que busquei compreender a sensibilidade artística e afetiva do cronista, montando um contraponto entre as crônicas e as cartas dos leitores comuns ou de seus pares. Observando o jornal, suporte da recepção, encaminhei reflexões sobre o espaço modelar da crônica e, em especial, sobre algumas de suas características (lingüísticas, estilísticas, temáticas) que possibilitam a mediação entre a cultura erudita, a folclórica e a popular. Para destacar a importância literária, cultural e política do cronista, examinei a relação entre o escritor e o gênero (a crônica) e entre o gênero e o veículo (o jornal). / [en] This dissertation has as objective to present a reading of Rubem Braga`s chronicles through the contact with his archive. I have intended to delineate my reading by detaching Braga`s passive correspondence, written as far by readers as by others writers. Parallel to that, I have focused on his depositions and interviews, as well as on articles published about him in the journalistic press. Although I have been reading his chronicles published in books, it was through the optics of the empirical reader of newspaper that I have attempted to understand Braga`s artistic and affective sensitivity, trying to build up a counterpoint between the chronicles and the letters by the common readers or by his literary pairs. Observing the newspaper, support of the reception, I have directed reflections on the modelled space of the chronicle and, in special, on some of its characteristics (linguistic, stylistic, thematic) which have made possible the mediation between the erudite, the folklorical and the popular culture. To emphasize on Braga`s literary, cultural and political importance, I have examined the relation between the writer and the chronicle and between the chronicle and the vehicle (the newspaper).
