(Re)creating "Benjamim": Authorship Marked by Intermediality
This article analyzes the role of intermediality in Monique Gardenberg\u27s film adaptation, benjamim: Ninguém Esconde o Amor (2003), based on Chico Buarque’s novel, Benjamim (1995). By employing the theoretical framework of intermediality (Clüver 2007, 2011 and Rajewsky 2005, 2010), this study examines the intricate intersection of media elements, such as image, music, and photography, within the film to explore the interplay between the novel-to-film adaptation and its source-text. Additionally, the article discusses the introduction of a new gendered dimension in the film and proposes that intermediality defines Gardenberg’s authorship of a new product, emphasizing the repetition with variation—a notion central to the pleasure and appeal of adaptations (Hutcheon 2006)
Understanding the Plurality of Nature: A Neo-Spinozist Response to the Critical Naturalism Manifesto
The prior issue of Krisis (42:1) published Critical Naturalism: A Manifesto, with the aim to instigate a debate of the issues raised in this manifesto – the necessary re-thinking of the role (and the concept) of nature in critical theory in relation to questions of ecology, health, and inequality. Since Krisis considers itself a place for philosophical debates that take contemporary struggles as starting point, it issued an open call and solicited responses to the manifesto. This is one of the sixteen selected responses, which augment, specify, or question the assumptions and arguments of the manifesto.The prior issue of Krisis (42:1) published Critical Naturalism: A Manifesto, with the aim to instigate a debate of the issues raised in this manifesto – the necessary re-thinking of the role (and the concept) of nature in critical theory in relation to questions of ecology, health, and inequality.

The Universal Nature of a Spinozistic Substance
There is a longstanding alliance between rationalism and realism concerning universals. Spinoza does not disrupt that alliance. The nature of a Spinozistic substance, after all, is a universal. That is what I argue here. My central point is that a realist conception of universals is a key presumption behind Spinoza’s case for substance monism, a view historically recognized as a natural outgrowth of realism’s toleration of strict identity in diversity. After defending my central point (and, in addition, the secondary point that Spinoza is likely cognizant of this presumption), I respond to two concerns. First, I explain how the nature of a Spinozistic substance is a universal even though there can be only one instance of that nature. Second, I explain how Spinoza’s infamous rejection of universals does not contradict the fact that the nature of a substance is a universal
