Sostiene que ante la caída de Roma a consecuencia de su culto a la materia, el paganismo, los vicios y las invasiones bárbaras, el cristianismo se presenta como una nueva idea y un nuevo sentimiento. Un mundo nuevo en el que predomina el espíritu antes que la materia. Compara la degeneración de las civilizaciones de Babilonia, Roma y Francia entregadas a la corrupción y al placer para afirmar que la materia no debe ser sino la esclava sumisa del espíritu inmortal que vive en los hombres. / Tesis

Orientador: Andrea Lúcia Dorini de Oliveira Carvalho Rossi / Banca: Margarida Maria de Carvalho / Banca: Ivan Esperanca Rocha / Resumo: A presente pesquisa tem como objeto as figuras dos governantes Júlio César e Augusto na De Uita Caesarum, e buscar-se-á uma análise da representatividade heroica dos personagens e dos seus ideais explorados nesta narrativa biográfica elaborada nos governos de Trajano e Adriano (98 a 138 d.C.), primeiros imperadores da Dinastia Antonina. Para isso é necessário compreendermos alguns aspectos em torno da figura do herói e da constituição do mito. O arcabouço ideológico fundava-se na estrutura de propaganda que buscava construir a imagem do princeps infalível, semideus, futuro divus e provedor da justiça. Os romanos tinham ainda como suporte da construção dessa imagem, no plano da realidade concreta, o Senado, os generais e as forças militares e, principalmente, um aparato cerimonial complexo e utilitário, capaz de manter as categorias de valores morais nos patamares desejados pelo poder constituído. Ao estudar a trajetória de construção dos personagens César e Augusto na De Uita Caesarum de Suetônio, torna-se imprescindível à análise do papel da religião pública romana, assim como suas manifestações rituais e míticas. Assim, ao se verificar a figura do general e do princeps nesta fonte, busca-se entender a remissão às práticas políticas e religiosas do século I a.C., período final da República romana. / Abstract: This research has as object the figures of rulers Julius Caesar and Augustus in the De Uita Caesarum, and will seek an analysis of the representativeness of the heroic characters and their ideals explored in this biographical narrative developed in the governments of Trajan and Hadrian (98 to 138 AD), First emperors of the Antonina Dynasty. For this it is necessary to understand some aspects around the figure of the hero and the formation of myth. The ideological framework was based on the structure of propaganda that sought to build the image of infallible princeps, demigod, future divus and provider of justice. The Romans also had as a support of the construction of this image, in terms of concrete reality, the Senate, the generals and the military forces, and especially a complex and utilitarian cerimonial apparatus, able to keep the categories of moral values in the levels desired by the constituted power. When studying the trajectory of the construction of the characters of Caesar and Augustus, in the De Uita Caesarum of Suetonius, it becomes essential to consider the role of the public Roman religion, as well as its ritual and mythical manifestations. Thus, verifying the figure of General and princeps in this source, we seek to understand the remission to the political and religious practices of the first century BC, the final period of the Roman Republic. / Mestre

Ambos os temas eram caros aos estóicos que são reconhecidamente aperfeiçoadores dessas idéias. Assim, o tema da ekpyrosis passa, de elemento astrológico e de cunho moral em Berossos para tornar-se apenas fenômeno natural 9ainda que entendido astrologicamente) em Sêneca e nos estóicos. O tema sugere uma origem comum à do fogo sagrado. ________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / This dissertation deals with the links between ekpyrosis, or final conflagration, and Hellenistic astrology. Both themes were dear to Stoic philosophers, who admittedly took them far beyond these origins. Thus, ekpyrosis turns, from astrological-moral theme to a mere natural phenomenon (albeit understood in astrological terms) in Seneca and the Stoics. The theme suggests a link to that of the sacred fire.

1 Abstract - Discrimination against Roma in Czech Republic? The purpose of my thesis is to analyse the issue of discrimination against the Roma people in the Czech Republic, particularly from the perspective of the state - whether the Roma ethnic group in our country is indeed discriminated against and how the state copes with this possible racial discrimination. This theme became more important in connection with the riots in Šluknov in 2011. The thesis is divided into four main chapters. Chapter One deals with the history of Roma-related legal acts promulgated in our lands. It covers the history from the arrival of the Roma in our lands, the promulgation of legal acts during the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and Czechoslovakia, until the effort of the Communist Party to assimilate them. Chapter Two is focused on the discrimination against Roma in education. In this chapter I analyse the judgment of the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights on the case D. H. and others vs. Czech Republic. On this judgement, the court held that there was discrimination against the Roma concerning their access to education and violation of the European Convention on Human Rights and its protocols by the Czech Republic. After an evaluation of this judgement I propose some measures which could lead to the elimination...

This study focuses on the identities and self-perception of Roma adolescents in the Czech Republic and the educational implications these may have for this particular group of students. In particular it attempts to shed light on how these individuals perceive themselves, their schooling and future adult roles they expect to take on in life. Furthermore, the perceptions and involvement of Roma parents was also examined in an attempt to explore their views on education that they transmit to their children. A theoretical framework was developed based upon the ecological systems theory, theories on the identity development in adolescence, ethnic minority identity as well as the existing literature on the schooling of ethnic minority pupils. A qualitative approach followed by a multiple case study design was taken with semi-structured interviews as the research method. The empirical study was conducted with three female participants from one low-threshold facility for children and youth in Prague. Data was analysed using the phenomenological approach which regards the reality not as a given entity but as socially constructed by individuals according to their everyday experiences. The key findings of the study suggest that Roma children do not have negative identities developed, there are no negative values they...

Thesis advisor: Peter Skerry / The post-communist political shift to liberal democracies in Eastern Europe has given new hope to Romani communities scattered across the region. However, plagued by a history entangled with episodes of slavery, persecution, and extermination, many Roma remain wary about this transition, lacking faith that it truly extends beyond a nominal domain. This paper first offers a critical exploration into unpacking Roma culture – specifically their material disadvantage and discrimination – from both an abstract and realist perspective. By properly understanding the relationship between their experience with poverty and desires for cultural autonomy, forming a rational, multi-level plan to intervene becomes more accessible. Ultimately, this leads to a series of policy interventions, particularly in the realm of primary and secondary education. Looking closely at this one area of the Roma experience with non-Roma institutions could provide key insights into their interaction with other overlapping exchanges, help to break down the centuries-old legacy of distrust and antagonism between the two sides, and promote a healthier environment for cooperation. / Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2016. / Submitted to: Boston College.

Roma-/Zigeuner-Vertreter bzw. Repräsentanten sind nicht erst seit der Demokratisierung Bulgariens und Mazedoniens wichtige Akteure im Hinblick auf verschiedene Integrationsmaßnahmen dieser Länder. Der Beitrag wird diese Akteure durch mehr als 500 Jahre Geschichte dieser Teile 'des Balkans' als Nutzer der Kontaktzone zwischen den mehrheitsgesellschaftlichen Institutionen und 'ihrer' durch sie vertretenen 'Roma' zeigen.

Aidai Idinova Abstract The thesis will look at the how effective human rights protection can be, and especially regarding the Roma population in the Czech Republic. As there is a huge number of human rights, this thesis will focus on the right to education. Moreover, the case study of this thesis is the Roma population in the Czech Republic, therefore the rights and livelihoods of the Roma population will be analysed, examined and evaluated in this country. The thesis will also look at four hypotheses and try to find out if there really exists discrimination in the country, and to what extent; whether religion has an effect towards perceptions towards Roma; whether longer education changes one's attitudes towards Roma; and whether a communist past correlates with greater discrimination. But most importantly, this thesis will look at the right to education and the access to education for Roma students. Education is such an important human right as it has long-term effects in Roma's employment, health care and housing opportunities. Therefore, the Czech educational system will be analysed in regards to the socially disadvantaged group of the Roma population.

A presente pesquisa pretende, através da realização de um estudo dos projetos de Andrea Palladio para palácios na cidade de Vicenza, identificar na obra do arquiteto as possíveis implicações advindas das viagens por ele feitas à cidade de Roma. A pesquisa também procura aprofundar o entendimento do processo de projeto do arquiteto, entender quais são as diferenças e as semelhanças de composição entre os projetos dos palácios, entender de que maneira Palladio vê e compõe a cidade, qual a sua relação com um traçado urbano preexistente, já configurado, no qual os edifícios devem ser inseridos. / This research intends to, through the study of Andrea Palladio\'s palaces projects at Vicenza, identify in the architect\'s work, possible implications which came form his trips to Rome. The research also tries to deepen the comprehension of the process of the architect\'s project; to understand compound\'s differences and similarities between the projects of the palaces; to understand how Palladio sees and compounds the city; the relationship between Palladio and a pre-existent urban plan, already shaped, in which buildings must be introduced.
