Philosophical Andreia in Plato’s Republic
No full textIn the most famous image in Plato’s Republic, Socrates peoples an underground cave with prisoners who believe that the shadows they see on the walls of the cave represent reality. He asks: what would it take for one of these prisoners to escape from his shackles and attempt the ascent to the light of the sun? There is one virtue in particular without which no prisoner can hope to escape the cave, and that is the virtue that I will call: philosophical andreia. This thesis is an inquiry into Plato’s treatment of philosophical andreia in the Republic. As we will see by way of detailed analysis of the dramatic and argumentative levels of the dialogue, philosophical andreia consists in the unity of what I will call “spiritedness” and “perseverance” in facing the many obstacles to the acquisition of wisdom. I will take the image of the cave as scaffolding for my inquiry, locating each of Socrates’ interlocutors within the cave according to their possession of the spiritedness and perseverance needed to escape from it. And I will take Socrates as performing the philosopher’s heroic katabasis to the cave in his attempt to liberate his interlocutors from its shadows. In the Socrates of the Republic, Plato presents us with a new kind of hero – the philosopher hero – and paradigm of a new kind of courage: philosophical andreia
Andreia and Gender in the Greek Novels
No full textTowards the end of their novels, both Chariton and Heliodorus engage their heroes in remarkable feats of bravery in military and athletic contexts. Focusing on these two authors, this paper analyses the Greek novels\u27 conception of the cardinal philosophical virtue of andreia. It begins by identifying the prototypical spheres of andreia in both philosophical and more general cultural contexts, and examining the role played by gender stereotypes in the formation of ancient thought on andreia. It then explores the extent to which the novels advance a philosophy of andreia, borrowing and manipulating classical philosophical doctrine to create a complex virtue which reflects the novels\u27 classical dramatic settings, as well as more contemporary concerns.Meriel Jones is Lecturer in Classics at the University of Wales, Lampeter.

Replication Data for: "Local seismicity and sediment deformation in the west Svalbard margin: Implications of neotectonics for seafloor seepage"
No full textThe attached dataset contains earthquake locations and the input files for software used to calculate them (HYPOSAT) and two seismic lines presented in the manuscript. Earthquakes were recorded during an ocean bottom seismometer experiment (OBS) between 08-2020 and 07-2021. Ten instruments were deployed on the seafloor in the Fram Strait, offshore west Svalbard during research cruise CAGE20-5 (https://doi.org/10.7557/cage.6909) and recovered during cruise CAGE21-3 (https://doi.org/10.7557/cage.6914). Both cruises took place on R/V Helmer Hansen. The purpose of the experiment was to improve understanding of local fluid flow systems and seafloor gas seepage and investigate tectonic influence on fluid flow processes (within the framework of the funding project "SEAMSTRESS" awarded to Andreia Plaza-Faverola)

Experiências e significados da casa abrigo para homens vítimas de violência na intimidade
Get PDFOrientação: Andreia Machado.A violência na intimidade, quando os homens são vítimas, ao longo dos anos, tem sido
cada vez mais objeto de estudo. A procura de ajuda por parte de homens vítimas tem vindo a
crescer, contudo, a nível nacional, há escassez de investigação sobre a vivência em casa abrigo.
Assim sendo, neste estudo, pretendeu-se aceder às experiências e significados da casa abrigo
para homens vítimas de violência na intimidade e, para tal, os dados foram recolhidos através
de um questionário sociodemográfico e de uma entrevista semiestruturada. Para a análise de
dados recorreu-se à análise temática de forma a explorar os dados recolhidos nas 6 entrevistas
realizadas. Os resultados obtidos indicam que estas vítimas passaram por experiências de
vitimação severas, em que a violência psicológica foi a mais predominante. No que diz respeito
à experiência na casa abrigo, na generalidade, a mesma é descrita como positiva e essencial
para recuperar dos efeitos nefastos provocados pela violência. A necessidade mais mencionada
por estes homens foi a existência de maior periodicidade no apoio psicológico nos serviços de
apoio às vítimas. Serão ainda apresentadas as implicações práticas assim como sugestões de
investigações futuras.Intimate partner violence, when men are victims, has been increasingly studied over
the years. The demand for help from men has been growing, however, at a national level, there
is a lack of research on the experience of living in a shelter. Therefore, in this study, we intended
to access the experiences and meanings of the shelter for men who are victims of intimate
violence and, for this, data was collected through a sociodemographic questionnaire and a semi structured interview. In order to the data analysis, thematic analysis was used to explore the
data collected in the 6 interviews carried out. The results obtained indicate that these victims
have gone through severe victimization experiences, in which psychological violence was the
most prevalent. With regard to the experience in the shelter, in general, it was described as
positive and essential to recover from the harmful effects caused by violence. The most
mentioned necessity by these men was the existence of greater periodicity in psychological
support in victim support services. The practical implications will also be presented, as well as
suggestions for future research
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
