Estes marcos cronológicos correspondem aproximadamente ao período em que a Reforma Católica teve lugar com maior intensidade, sendo a baliza inicial o ano em que osdecretos tridentinos foram incluídos na legislação portuguesa. Foi feita análise serial da incidência de práticas ascéticas nos relatos do Agiologio Lusitano, uma das principais fontes aqui utilizadas. Para além das pequenas biografias do Agiologio, fez-se um estudo mais detido de duas vitæ, biografias exemplares de caráter religioso, uma masculina (Vida e morte do Padre Fr. Estevão da Purificação, do Fr. Luís da Apresentação)e outra feminina (Historia da vida admiravel, & das acções prodigiosas da veneravel Madre Soror Brizida de Santo Antonio, do Fr. Agostinho de Santa Maria), visando explorar, a partir de dois casos, aspectos da vida de um asceta extremo. Buscou-se compreender as razões pelas quais os indivíduos praticavam autoflagelações sanguinolentase jejuns rígidos, e faziam uso de cilícios que retalhavam a carne, dentre outras severas penitências. Defende-se a tese de que estas formas de austeridade só se observam, no período estudado, entre os católicos, devido às concepções destes a respeito da salvação, especialmente com relação à valorização das obras meritórias e a necessidade de colaboração do fiel com a Graça, o que não se verifica entre os protestantes, os quais questionavam o valor salvífico das boas obras. Buscou-se ainda discutir questõesassociadas às relações de gênero na vivência dos ascetas. Do ponto de vista quantitativo, não há grandes diferenças entre os universos feminino e masculino, o que nos leva a concluir que são práticas compartilhadas. As diferenças no que respeita à afiliação a estratos sociais foram também levadas em consideração, embora, apesar de termos mais menções de nobres do que de gente humilde vinculados ao ascetismo, em quase ¾ dos casos investigados não há informação sobre a origem social e, portanto, não se pode afirmar que são práticas de um único estrato. Isto não significa que o ascetismo não tivesse importância social, pois se verificou que alguns indivíduos, normalmente marginalizados pela sociedade, a exemplo de mulheres pobres, podiam obter imenso prestígio, devido às práticas ascéticas. De todo modo, as frequentes referências na literatura religiosa da época indicam ser este um modelo de vida santa almejado por muitos, embora alcançado por poucos. In this dissertation, we seek to investigate sanctity profiles in Portugal from 1564 to 1700, focusing on ascetic practices. These dates correspond approximately to the period in which the Catholic Reformation was more intense, with the first chronological landmark being the year in which the decrees of the Council of Trent became part of Portuguese Law. We have analyzed the incidence of ascetic practices based upon the Agiologio Lusitano, one of the main sources of this study. Besides the short biographies from the Agiologio, we have explored in more depth two vitæ, exemplary religious biographies, one of a male (Vida e morte do Padre Fr. Estevão da Purificação, by Fr. Luís da Apresentação) and another of a female(Historia da vida admiravel, & das acções prodigiosas da veneravel Madre Soror Brizida de Santo Antonio, by Fr. Agostinho de Santa Maria), in an attempt to understand aspects of the life of an extreme ascetic. We have tried to determine the reasons why some individuals practised self-flagellation and very strict fasting, as well as made use of cilices, among other kinds of penance. We argue that, in the period studied, these forms of austerity only took place among Catholics, due to their specific conceptions as regards salvation, particularlyconcerning the necessity that the believer collaborate with Grace, through worthy actions. This does not occur among Protestants, who question the salvationist value of good conduct. The dissertation also discusses questions related to gender in ascetic experience and concludes that there are no considerable differences between the female and male worlds in the context investigated. Class differences have been examined as well. Figures of noble origin are mentioned more frequently than others but, for the majority of the ascetics, there is no reference to social origin. Thus it is not possible to conclude that these are practices of a single group. This does not mean that asceticism did not have social impact, since some marginalized individuals in society could acquire great prestige for being an ascetic. In any case, the frequent references to ascetic practices in the religious literature indicates that this was a model of a holy life that many aspired to live, although only a few could reach. / Salvador

A universidade do século XXI: concepções, finalidades e contradições / The University of Twenty-first Century: conceptions, aims and contradictions

FERREIRA, Suely 21 December 2009 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2014-07-29T15:13:48Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 tese suely ferreira educacao.pdf: 1693090 bytes, checksum: 270d81122af7570a6e8fe9847f713f27 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-12-21 / This investigation is inserted in the research line State and Educational Policies of the Post-graduate Program in Education of the Universidade Federal de Goiás, Brazil, and had as aim to discuss the building of new social conceptions and roles requested to public universities by the reformation of Brazilian higher education (1995-2008) and by the Bologna Process in European Union (1999-2008). Watching the particularities of both Brazilian and European contexts, the interest of the research was driven to university as a social institution face to face the new requests put by State, by society and by the market which have been shaping its social aims. Since the last decades of twentieth century, the traditional social aims of the university came to be under questioning, suffering several censures, which has been putting in argument the need of restructuring this institution in order to arrogate new social roles according to the accelerated transformations due to productive rebuilding of capital. In this manner, in a scenery of great wrangling for global competition and of globalization of the capital, the accelerated transformations provoked by the flexible accumulation, face to the process of financiering of the economy and by the technical-scientific revolution (HARVEY, 2006; CHESNAIS, 1996; SANTOS, 1997; LOJKINE, 1995), new social, cultural, economic and political requests emerge linked to this process and the new relationship of State, market and civil society to the public university and its aims. The process of internalization of higher education has been becoming possible the introduction of new agents, regulations and requests to the academic formation and to the production of knowledge, what causes important transformations to the universities. For the realization of the study, was chosen the documental theoretical investigation joined to a macrossocial analysis. In this trajectory, has been used the bibliographic research on studies produced about the theme within Brazilian ambit (OLIVEIRA, 2000; CUNHA, 2004; COÊLHO, 2004; SGUISSARDI, 2008; DIAS SOBRINHO, 2007; AMARAL, 2008; DOURADO, 2008; GOMES, 2008; among others) and within European context (PACHECO, 2003; CHARLE et al., 2004; BARROSO, 2005; ANTUNES, 2007; MAGALHÃES, 2006; DALE, 2008; among others). Documents produced by Brazilian governments and within the ambit of European Union which regulate and guide the process of reformulation in Brazil and Europe have been collected and analyzed. Furthermore, documents elaborated by transnational organisms and by institutions of the civil society as well as documents produced and made disposable by institutions of higher education in Brazil and in European Union have been collected and analyzed too. The research shows that the process of restructuring the higher education in Brazil as well as in European Union, begun in the nineties of the last century has been causing significant changes in the identity, in the conception, in the relevance and social pertinence criteria of the universities, what has been making possible some naturalization of the new social aims and of the new forms of conceiving them more gotten along with the requests of the productive globalization and of the competitive interests of the national state / Esta investigação insere-se na linha de pesquisa Estado e Políticas Educacionais do Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação da Universidade Federal de Goiás e teve como objetivo discutir a construção das novas concepções e papéis sociais que estão sendo requeridos para a universidade pública mediante a reforma da educação superior no Brasil (1995-2008) e do Processo de Bolonha na União Europeia (1999-2008). Resguardadas as devidas especificidades do contexto brasileiro e europeu, o interesse da pesquisa direcionou-se para a universidade como uma instituição social, tendo em vista as novas solicitações que lhe são demandadas pelo Estado, sociedade e mercado e que vêm moldando as suas finalidades sociais. Desde as últimas décadas do século XX, os fins sociais tradicionais da universidade passaram a ser postos em questão, sofrendo críticas diversas, o que tem colocado em debate a necessidade da reestruturação dessa instituição, de modo a que venha assumir novos papéis sociais em consonância com as aceleradas transformações decorrentes da reestruturação produtiva do capital. Assim, no cenário de grande acirramento pela competitividade global e da mundialização do capital, de transformações conjunturais aceleradas pela acumulação flexível, frente ao processo de financeirização da economia e da revolução técnico-científica-informacional (HARVEY, 2006; CHESNAIS, 1996; SANTOS, 1997; LOJKINE, 1995), surgem ao mesmo tempo, articuladas a esse processo, novas demandas econômicas, políticas, sociais e culturais, e discutem-se as novas relações do Estado, do mercado e da sociedade civil com a universidade pública e suas finalidades. O processo de internacionalização da educação superior vem possibilitando a introdução de novos agentes, regulamentações, institucionalidades, demandas para a formação acadêmica e produção do conhecimento, acarretando importantes transfomações para as universidades. Para desenvolver o estudo, optou-se pela investigação teórica, documental e por uma análise macrossocial das reformas da educação superior no Brasil e na União Europeia. Nesse percurso, utilizou-se da pesquisa bibliográfica de estudos produzidos sobre o tema no âmbito brasileiro (OLIVEIRA, 2000; CUNHA, 2004; COÊLHO, 2004; SGUISSARDI, 2008; DIAS SOBRINHO, 2007; AMARAL, 2008; DOURADO, 2008; GOMES, 2008; dentre outros) e no contexto europeu (PACHECO, 2003; CHARLE et al., 2004; BARROSO, 2005; ANTUNES, 2007; MAGALHÃES, 2006; DALE, 2008; dentre outros). Realizaram-se coleta e análise de documentos produzidos pelos governos brasileiros e no âmbito da União Europeia, que normatizam e orientam o processo de reforma no Brasil e Europa; de documentos elaborados por organismos transnacionais e por entidades da sociedade civil, além de documentos produzidos e disponibilizados pelas instituições de ensino superior do Brasil e da União Europeia em seus endereços eletrônicos respectivos. A pesquisa mostra que o processo de reestruturação da educação superior, tanto no Brasil quanto na União Europeia, iniciado na década de 1990, vem acarretando significativas mudanças na identidade, na concepção, nos critérios de relevância e de pertinência social, o que tem possibilitado certa naturalização das novas finalidades sociais e das novas formas de conceber as universidades mais afinadas com as demandas da globalização produtiva e dos interesses competitivos dos estados nacionais.

Architectural Prototypes II : Reformations, Speculations and Strategies in the Digital Design Field

Runberger, Jonas January 2012 (has links)
This doctoral thesis is situated within the digital design field of architecture, and is a continuation of the licentiate thesis Architectural Prototypes: Modes of Design Development and Architectural Practice, presented at the KTH School of Architecture in 2008. The doctoral thesis investigates the current status of the digital design field of architecture, and identifies a number of related discourses. Within this field, it identifies a period of formation, which in recent years has turned into a process of reformation. It contributes to this ongoing reformation by proposing two alternate areas of future practice and research within the field. A speculative approach is considered to be important for a continued mode of exploration within the field, and is suggested as away to bring new scope to the digital design field. A number of key terms from the field of science fiction studies have been investigated to support the construction of a speculative framework for further development. A strategic approach is regarded as crucial to the way new design potentials that have emerged within the digital design field to be implemented into general architectural practice, and to further inform the field itself. Key concepts have been imported from the field of strategic management in the formulation of a framework for digital design strategies. The notion of the prototype, as explored in the previous licentiate thesis, resurfaces as a prototypical approach, which could be equally employed in the speculative approach and the strategic approach. The doctoral thesis is also situated within the field of research-by-design, in the way architectural design projects have been facilitated as contextualized experiments, selected, documented and aligned in regard to terminology, and analyzed through a series of design project enquiries. / QC 20120528

[en] FREEDOM AND SERVITUDE BETWEEN HUMANISM AND REFORMATION: A PERSPECTIVE ABOUT THE SUBJECTIVITY EXPERIENCES IN RENAISSANCE CULTURE / [pt] LIBERDADE E SERVIDÃO ENTRE O HUMANISMO E A REFORMA: UM ENFOQUE ACERCA DAS EXPERIÊNCIAS DE SUBJETIVIDADE NA CULTURA DO RENASCIMENTO

SERGIO XAVIER GOMES DE ARAUJO 13 January 2006 (has links)
[pt] O trabalho pretende lançar uma luz sobre o início dos tempos modernos abordando a riqueza das experiências de subjetividade na cultura renascentista. Suas complexidades são tematizadas no exame das complicadas relações entre o ideário humanista e o movimento das reformas religiosas, e suas respectivas evoluções. Destaca-se primeiro, nos primórdios da Renascença, um impulso pela interiorização do sentimento religioso, que aliado ao resgate dos valores da Antiguidade, se faz cerne do anseio por um cristianismo renovado, centrado na valorização do homem e do mundo, do poder do espírito em alcançar a salvação, sem a intermediação das instituições da Igreja. O movimento das reformas religiosas, fundado no anseio renovador humanista de homens como Nicolau de Cusa, Pico Della Mirandola e Erasmo de Rotterdã, não tardará entretanto em se apartar dele a partir de Lutero, numa religiosidade que condena o espírito humano e sua experiência mundana. O exame da discussão sobre o livre arbítrio entre Erasmo e Lutero nos mostra o embate entre duas concepções distintas sobre o homem, que surtirão conseqüências, não raro, inesperadas sobre a formação do mundo moderno. / [en] The study wants to iluminate the begining of modern times treating the richness of the subjectivity experiences in Renaissance culture. The complexities of that should be look in the analysis of the complicated relations between the humanistic ideals and the religious reformations movements and his respective evolutions. First, in the relief, emerges in primeval Renaissance, a impulse for interiozation of religious sentiment, which, in alliance with the rescue of the values of the Antiquity, makes itself in the roots of a new cristianity, centralize in the valorization of man and the world, in the power of the spirity in reaching the salvation, without the intermediation of institutions of the Church. The religious reformations movements, first in the roots of the humanistic renovator impulse of men like Nicholas de Cusa, Pico Della Mirandola and Erasmo de Rotterdã, should be, in a second time, aparted of him, since Lutero and his religious sentiment which condemn the human spirity and his mundane experience. The analyses of the discussion about the free arbitre between Erasmo and Lutero shows to us the confrontation of two diferent conceptions of man, which have their impact, many times imprevisible, in the formation of modern times.

A critical analysis of the application of the sola Scriptura principle in Adventist theological thinking and practical action with special reference to the Zambian context

Hachalinga, Passmore 06 1900 (has links)
Theological divisions are threatening the Seventh-day Adventist Church’s unity and focus on mission. Some Adventist theologians suggest that the cause of these divisions is a departure by other Adventist theologians from adhering to and applying the sola Scriptura principle. This study analyzes this problem. Chapter one presents reasons for a call during the 16th century, to reform the church to its apostolic purity. Martin Luther and other Protestant Reformers argued against the medieval church, popes, and church councils’ claim for authority to properly interpret and teach Scripture and Tradition. Differing views of reforming the church sparked divisions among the Protestant Reformers, creating two main streams, the magisterial and the radical Reformers. The Roman Catholic Church responded to the Protestant Reformations with a Counter-Reformation. Chapter two discusses Seventh-day Adventism’s application of the sola Scriptura principle. Although Adventism claims to descend from the radical wing of the Protestant Reformations, its acceptance of Ellen G. White’s prophetic ministry and her non-canonical inspired writings departs from a radical application of the sola Scriptura principle. Chapter three presents Biblical evidences for God’s use of multiple media of communication beside the Bible. Therefore Adventism needs to clearly define its understanding and application of the sola Scriptura principle to accommodate other theological sources in addition to the Bible. Chapter four presents Scripture in Zambian Adventist context, tracing Adventism’s use of the Bible in evangelization. Adventism’s responses to changing socio-political and religiopluralistic trends which threatened to marginalize Bible Instructions, and the development of, but failed attempt to implement an Adventist Bible-based Religious Education syllabus at Rusangu Secondary School are presented. Chapter five gives the general summary, conclusion and recommendations. / Systematic Theology and Theological Ethics / D.Th. (Systematic Theology)
