Verdade e coragem: uma leitura crítica da parrhesía socrática e cínica em Michel Foucault
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Filosofia, Florianópolis, 2013.O presente trabalho propõe-se a investigar a relação entre verdade e subjetividade ? o modo pelo qual o sujeito esculpe sua própria existência à medida que se obriga à verdade ?, entrelaçando as esferas da política e da ética nas últimas obras de Michel Foucault (1926 ? 1984), de 1982 a 1984. Esta relação assume a forma da parrhesía, noção de origem grega que designa a fala franca, o dizer-a-verdade. Os últimos cursos do Collège de France demonstram toda a efervescência do pensamento filosófico do último Foucault: neles se encontra a análise histórica da confissão no cristianismo primitivo, a elaboração dos conceitos de cuidado de si e de parrhesía no pensamento antigo, o comentário ao texto de Kant sobre o Iluminismo. Todas essas análises consentem que se desenvolva uma nova concepção de subjetividade, uma nova concepção de verdade e uma nova concepção de filosofia. Para ele, não interessa saber ?qual é a verdade?, mas como algo se institui como verdade numa dada época; construída mediante práticas analisáveis historicamente, existente em todas as culturas. Mas também pensada como efeito dos mecanismos de poder que incidem sobre a ?alma? do sujeito. Será nas práticas ascéticas da Antiguidade greco-romana que Foucault encontrará respostas para a constituição de uma subjetividade não normativizada como prática libertadora mediante a busca de novas formas do dizer-verdadeiro. Vê-se surgir uma nova possibilidade de pensar a ética sob o prisma da estética da existência, entendida como a forma que se pode dar à própria vida por meio da relação do sujeito com a verdade, sendo Sócrates e os cínicos as principais referências desta constituição ético-ascética do sujeito.Abstract : The present study aims to investigate the relationship between truth and subjectivity - the way the subject carves his own existence as obligating himself to the truth - interlacing the spheres of politics and ethics in latest works of Michel Foucault (1926 - 1984), from 1982 to 1984. This relationship takes the form of parrhesía, the Greek's origin notion that means the frank speech or the telling-the-truth. The last courses at the Collège de France show all philosophical ebullience of the late Foucault: therein lies the historical analysis of confession in primitive Christianity, the development of the concepts of self care and parrhesía in ancient thought, the comment on the Kant's text about Enlightenment. All these analysis allow the development of a new subjectivity conception, a new conception of truth and a new conception of philosophy. For him, it doesn't matter to know "what is the truth", but how something is established as true at a given time; built upon historically analyzable practices, existing in all cultures. But this truth also thought as an effect of power mechanisms that fall upon the "soul" of the subject. It will be in the ascetic practices of Greco-Roman antiquity that Foucault will find answers for the constitution of a non standardized subjectivity as a realeasing practice by seeking new ways of telling the true. It arises a new possibility of thinking about ethics from the perspective of the existence aesthetics, understood as the shape life may take through the subject's relation with the truth, being Socrates and the Cynics the main references of this ethical-ascetic constitution of the subject
Ernst Assmann: A German pioneer in forest production ecology and quantitative silviculture
No full textErnst Assmann belonged to the most influential German forest scientists in the twentieth century. His systemic and scale-overarching scientific approach toward forest dynamics triggered a wealth of research lines that continue up to the present day. In this article, we recall his scientific vita, his most important discoveries and his scientific legacy. In honor of this outstanding researcher, the European Journal of Forest Research initiates the series of Ernst Assmann Reviews on Production Ecology and Quantitative Silviculture

No full textVier Grundtypen von Zeugenschaft
No full textAn erudite, yet accessible cultural essay, reconstructing historical and cultural varieties of testimonies, which led to the emergence of various kinds of witness figures and types of testimonies. By introducing this order, it is easier to see and understand the specificity of oral history – both the “normal” and the “Holocaust” one – against the backdrop of court witness and religious testimonies. Assmann’s text lends itself to being read in a variety of ways – including as a culturological source study.

Applications of Lie methods to computations with polycyclic groups
No full textIn this thesis we demonstrate the algorithmic usefulness of the so-called
Mal'cev correspondence for computations with infinite polycyclic groups.
This correspondence between Q-powered nilpotent groups and rational nilpotent
Lie algebras was discovered by Anatoly Mal'cev in 1951.
We show how the Mal'cev correspondence can be realized on a computer.
We explore two possibilities for this purpose and compare them: the first
one uses matrix embeddings and the second the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff
formula.
Then, we describe a new collection algorithm for polycyclically presented
groups, which we call Mal'cev collection. Algorithms for collection lie at the
heart of most methods dealing with polycyclically presented groups. The
current state of the art is "collection from the left" as recently studied by
Gebhardt, Leedham-Green/Soicher and Vaughan-Lee. Mal'cev collection is
in some cases dramatically faster than collection from the left, while using
less memory.
Further, we explore how the Mal'cev correspondence can be used to describe
symbolically the collection process in polycyclically presented groups.
In particular, we describe an algorithm that computes the collection functions
for splittable polycyclic groups. This algorithm is based on work by du Sautoy. We apply it to the computation of pro-p-completions of polycyclic
groups.
Finally we describe a practical algorithm for testing polycyclicity of finitely
generated rational matrix groups. Previously, not only did no such method
exist but it was not clear whether this question was decidable at all.
Most of the methods described in this thesis are implemented in the
computer algebra system GAP and publicly available as part of the GAP
packages Guarana and Polenta. Reports on the implementation including
runtimes for some examples are given at the appropriate places
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
