Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Imparare le lingue per abbracciare il mondo
L’autrice che si colloca, come Daniela Zorzi, tra i fautori di una linguistica “impegnata”, propone in ricordo della studiosa amica, una riflessione sul ruolo cruciale del multilinguismo e delle lingue- culture, per il successo professionale e il benessere sociale, nella società contemporanea. Il multilinguismo appare come un’urgenza educativa che interpella studiosi e formatori a tutti i livelli al fine di promuovere nei giovani un apprendimento consapevole efficace ed autonomo.Multilingualism constitutes an urgent objective for education, which needs to involve teachers and researchers at all levels if we are to promote effective and autonomous learning in the young. Like Daniela Zorzi, the author considers herself a socially engaged linguist, and in memory of her friend’s work, offers a reflection on the key roles of languages and cultures and of multilingualism for professional success and social welfare today
Reclamações ambientais em Aveiro, Portugal: atores, preocupações, padrão territorial e resoluções
This paper presents an environmental diagnosis based on public complaints on environmental
issues submitted to the Environmental Department of the Aveiro City Council, Portugal, between
2000 and 2005. It discusses the potential influences of these in local environmental planning
and governance. The paper has been organised into five sections. The first of these introduces
the study. The second section focuses on the conceptual approaches relating to environmental
grassroots movements, the main actors involved in these movements and the role played by
local government. It also contains a brief review of the most recent urban environmental
quality challenges in the European context together with a description of the main features of
the associated political and legal framework in Portugal. The third section describes the case
study and the methodology used. The results of the empirical study are detailed in the fourth
section. The final section critically analyses these results with emphases on the temporal
evolution of the submission of complaints, the actors involved, the local environmental problems
and their associated spatial pattern as well as the responses given by the City Council. This
information may then be used to provide a useful indicator for the perception of environmental
quality as well as a credible instrument for the visualisation and evaluation of local performance
in terms of environmental planning and management.AlBan Programme - n. E05M053040B

Interactions between Reflection and Praxis in the History of Economic Thought. The case of the Franciscan Cicles from XIII Century Assisi to the Present
Resumen: Daniela Parisi analiza el impacto de la vida de San F rancisco de Asís desde la perspectiva de la historia del pensamiento económico. Haciendo referencia particularmente a la atención otorgada en los círculos franciscanos a los signos de los tiempos, la autora traza el camino desde la vida de San Francisco, pasando por la vida de la Orden hasta el presente, y revela los orígenes del movimiento franciscano como un intento de reforma social y religiosa. En primer lugar, el artículo presenta la vida que llevó San Francisco como una “pobreza material voluntaria” en el contexto de los cambios socio-económicos que tuvieron lugar en el siglo XIII, con el advenimiento de la sociedad comercial. Luego, explica cómo la propuesta de San Francisco creció hasta convertirse en una orden religiosa. Finalmente, el artículo intenta iluminar aquellos aspectos en que la Orden Franciscana puede todavía considerarse un signo de los tiempos a través de una existencia comprometida con la pobreza, eliminando lo superfluo de nuestra vida y viviendo en consonancia con el Evangelio.Abstract: Daniela Parisi analyses the impact of the life of Saint Francis of Assisi, from the perspective of the history of economic thought. By referring in particular to the attention given in Franciscan circles to the signs of times, the author draws the path from Saint Francis’s life to the life of the Order until the present, and reveals the origins of the Franciscan movement as an attempt for social and religious reformation. First, the article presents St. Francis’s life of a “voluntary material poverty” in the context of the social and economic changes that took place in the XIII century, with the rise of the commercial society. Then, the author explains how St. Francis’ proposal grew into an Order. Finally, the article aims at illuminating the aspects in which the Franciscan Order can be still considered a sign of the times by living the commitment to poverty and minority, eliminating the superfluous from our lives and living close to the Gospel
Influência da heterogeneidade ambiental na composição de comunidades de roedores e marsupiais em áreas de Mata Atlântica, no Sul de Santa Catarina
Dissertação apresentada ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ciências Ambientais da Universidade do Extremo Sul Catarinense - UNESC, como requisito parcial para a obtenção do título de Mestre em Ciências Ambientais.Os padrões de distribuição influenciam diretamente na estrutura social das populações e comunidade, sendo um dos principais condicionantes na divisão de recursos e na coexistência de espécies, respondendo fortemente aos aspectos sazonais e espaciais. O objetivo deste estudo foi conhecer a composição e influência das estações do ano na comunidade de roedores e marsupiais e verificar a associação das características ambientais de microhabitat e disponibilidade de artrópodes com a distribuição das espécies, em quatro sítios (S1, S2, S3, S4) de Mata Atlântica no entorno da Barragem do Rio São Bento, Siderópolis, Santa Catarina. Foram realizadas quatro campanhas com cinco dias consecutivos de coleta, entre outubro de 2011 e julho de 2012. Cada sítio possuía três trilhas, equidistantes 50 m, com live traps intercaladas no solo e acima de 1 m, resultando num esforço de 4.080 armadilhasnoite, iscadas com banana e pasta de amendoim. Além disso, paralelamente foram instalados quatro pitfalls de 20 L em formato de "Y" duplo por sítio, com 320 armadilhas-noite. Por ponto de armadilha foi instalado um pitfall para artrópodes. Os mamíferos capturados foram marcados com brincos e as espécies não identificadas foram coletadas e depositadas na Coleção Científica de Mamíferos da UFSC. Foram 420 capturas de 258 indivíduos pertencentes a 14 espécies, sendo Euryoryzomys russatus, Akodon spp. e Philander frenatus as mais abundantes. S2 apresentou maior diversidade de Shannon (H’: 0,8091) e S4 a menor (H’: 0,5123). O Índice de Sorensen indicou alta similaridade entre as áreas. A análise de Escalonamento Muldimensional não-métrica com valor de STRESS de 0.14%, demonstrou agrupamentos nítidos de espécies no S4 e nas estações de verão e inverno. Para avaliar a influência do hábitat, foram considerados as espécies com mais de 10 indivíduos capturados. Os dois primeiros eixos da Análise de Componentes Principais explicaram 69% da variação. Na Análise de Redundância (RDA) Akodon spp. foi o único gênero associado com as variáveis ambientais, fortemente relacionado com áreas florestais mais abertas e de menor qualidade ambiental. Foram registradas 20 ordens de artrópodes, sendo Coleoptera, Diptera e Collembola as mais abundantes, tendo a maior biomassa de artrópodes registrada para S4 e para o verão. A disponibilidade de artrópodes foi inversamente proporcional às capturas de roedores e marsupiais, corroborando padrões observados para Mata Atlântica. Não foi encontrada influência significativa da heterogeneidade ambiental na diversidade e composição geral da comunidade de pequenos mamíferos. O esforço foi suficiente para registrar a composição da comunidade, contribuir com informações sobre a ecologia das espécies e ampliar o conhecimento sobre a fauna de roedores e marsupiais no sul do estado de Santa Catarina.The distribution patterns directly affect the social structure of populations and communities, being one of the main constraints on resources division and in the coexistence of species, responding strongly to seasonal and spatial aspects. The aim of this study was to understand the composition and influence of the seasons in the community of rodents and marsupials and the association of environmental characteristics and availability of arthropods with the distribution of species in four sites (S1, S2, S3, S4) of Atlantic Forest surrounding the Barragem do Rio São Bento, Siderópolis, Santa Catarina. There were four campaigns with five consecutive days of data collection between October 2011 and July 2012. Each site had three trails, equally spaced 50 m, interspersed with live traps on the ground and over 1 m, resulting in an effort of 4080 trap-nights, baited with peanut butter and banana. Furthermore, were installed four pitfalls of 20 L shaped double "Y" per site, with 320 traps-night. By trapping point a pitfall trap was installed to arthropods. The captured mammals were marked with earrings and unidentified species were collected and deposited in the Coleção de Científica de Mamíferos da UFSC. There were 420 captures of 258 individuals belonging to 14 species, Euryoryzomys russatus, Akodon spp. and Philander frenatus were the most abundant. S2 showed higher Shannon’s diversity (H ': 0,8091) and S4 the lowest (H': 0,5123). The Sorensen’s index indicated high similarity between areas. The analysis of non-metric Multidimensional Scaling, with STRESS value of 0.14%, showed clear groupings of species in S4 and in summer and winter. To evaluate the influence of habitat, were considered species with over 10 individuals captured. The first two axes of the Principal Component Analysis explained 69% of the data. In Redundancy Analysis (RDA) Akodon spp. was the only species associated with environmental variables, strongly correlated with open forest areas and lower environmental quality. We recorded 20 orders of arthropods, being Coleoptera, Diptera and Collembola the most abundant, with the highest biomass of invertebrates recorded for S4 and for the summer. The arthropod availability was inversely proportional to capture of rodents and marsupials, confirming patterns observed for Atlantic Forest. There was no significant influence of heterogeneity in the diversity and in the overall composition of the small mammal community. The effort was enough to record the composition of the community, contribute with information on the ecology of the species and increase knowledge of the fauna of rodents and marsupials in the southern state of Santa Catarina

A forma da cidade e sua apropriação: análise propositiva de diretrizes de arquitetura da cidade para Cumbayá em Quito/Equador
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Urbanismo, História e Arquitetura da CidadeEste trabalho busca entender a relação entre as diversas formas que a cidade vem adquirindo com o passar do tempo e as formas de apropriação contemporâneas, a partir de discussão teórica de conceitos e critérios de autores que discutem o desempenho da forma da cidade em relação à apropriação dos espaços públicos. Com base neste debate, elegemos critérios relacionados à apropriação nas escalas da estrutura da cidade e da configuração dos lugares, e procedeu-se à caracterização e análise da cidade contemporânea de Quito para verificar padrões espaciais diretamente associados com uma apropriação positiva da cidade na cultura quitenha. A partir dos critérios selecionados e dos padrões positivos identificados, lançamos diretrizes de projeto de arquitetura da cidade para uma área de expansão da cidade contemporânea de Quito no Equador - a Paróquia de Cumbayá - buscando responder a critérios de bom desempenho da forma urbana que potencializem a apropriação de seus espaços públicos.The research seeks to understand the relationship between the different forms that the city has acquired over time and contemporary forms of appropriation, based on a theoretical discussion of concepts and criteria of authors who discuss the performance of the form of the city in relation to the appropriation of public spaces. Based on this debate, we selected criteria related to appropriation, both at the scale of city structure and at the scale of place configuration, and proceeded to the characterization and analysis of the contemporary city of Quito in a search to identify spatial patterns directly associated with a positive appropriation of the city in Quito´s culture. The selected criteria and the positive patterns identified oriented the design guidelines here proposed for the architectural design of the Paróquia of Cumbayá - an area of expansion in the city of Quito, Ecuador - in an attempt to comply with the criteria of good urban form performance so as to enhance the appropriation of its public spaces
Daniela Fischerová and her radio plays
The main aim of this bachelor thesis is to analytically and critically investigate the radio plays of the Czech author and playwright Daniela Fischerová. It explores her work from 1989 to the present which comprises eight radio plays, three micro radio plays, one radio fairy tale and ten one minute long plays. It also deals with the term "radio play" and its specifics. I work in the Czech, respectively the Czechoslovakian context.
As a theoretical basis for this thesis I use publications, theoretical texts and lectures by Eva Ješutová, Jan Czech, Přemysl Rut, Vaclav Růt, Jan Vedral and many others. I use the theoretical basis for the analysis of the radio plays by Daniela Fischerová and the directors approaches of Hana Kofránková, Josef Červinka and Aleš Vrzák. My bachelor thesis is based not only on reading the scripts, but mainly on listening of the radio plays. Other sources of my bachelor thesis were the annexed interviews with the creators of these radio plays.
The major objective of this bachelor thesis is to seamlessly introduce Daniela Fischerová's radio plays. In the analyzed plays I deal with the themes, topics and narratives. I also observed the compositional elements and techniques that I tried to summarize and define in the concrete plays
