    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em História.Neste trabalho analisamos as concepções políticas de Alejo Carpentier dando atenção às influências dos contextos históricos e ideológico presentes em dois momentos distintos de sua vida: a década de 1920 e a de 1960. Por meio do estudo de suas crônicas, conferências, entrevistas e romances abordamos os debates que repercutiram em seu pensamento sobre a arte e a política cultural. Carpentier teve uma formação política ligada ao momento de expansão dos ideais socialistas em Cuba. Após a Revolução Cubana assumiu a função de dirigente cultural e posicionou-se, pelo menos publicamente, em defesa do governo revolucionário até o fim de sua vida. Os romances de Carpentier, além de possuírem uma forte preocupação com os temas históricos, utilizavam a temática da revolução como forma de expressar suas concepções políticas

    The use of the media by protesters during demonstrations affects the police force and its response. The new media force the police to update its crowd control strategy. The police’s scope of concern reaches an unprecedented level of exchange, because of the digital dimension adding to the physical one; it now has to take both into account in its crowd management practices. What is the attitude adopted by the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) with regard to the social media? What use does it make of the Twitter microblogging platform during demonstrations? In order to understand how the law enforcement agency uses the potential of this media and how it impacts its communications and practices, a database of 3,909 Twitter messages, dated between September 2012 and June 2015, was created. An analysis of the database shows that the SPVM seeks to establish a direct and egalitarian dialogue with the public, tries to open a specific communication channel with protesters and uses this new medium as a strategic tool

    Man and society : the notion of responsibility in the novels of Alejo Carpentier

    The aim of this thesis is to investigate the highly moral ethic of social duty and responsibility which animates the work of Alejo Carpentier. In order to examine this theme, I have studied, in particular, the following six novels: ‘El reino de este mundo’, Los pasos perdidos’, ‘El acoso’, El siglo de las luces’, ‘El recurso del método’, and ‘La consagración de la primavera’. In the Introduction, I have investigated the various philosophical questions raised by the concept of responsibility : the debate about freewill and determinism has been examined, and the Existentialist philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre has been chosen as the most helpful in an investigation of Carpentier’s theory of responsibility, due to a great coincidence of thought between the two writers. The protagonists of the novels in question have been grouped according to various distinguishing tendencies or characteristics, and have been analysed in the light of the Sartrian concepts of good and bad faith. These groupings are as follows: “the deluded intellectual”, “two tyrants”, “the lesson of experience”, and “the committed individual”. The success, or failure, of these characters, in matching up to the goals of self-transcendence and responsible commitment posed by Carpentier has been charted throughout Chapters One to Four, and deductions have been made about the various forms of bad faith in which the characters indulge. The conclusions that I have drawn from this detailed investigation of characters in good and bad faith are, firstly, that Carpentier sees man’s goal in life as the attainment of self-knowledge and the honest acceptance of responsibility for the self : once this state of good faith has been achieved, man is able to commit himself to the never-ending struggle for the improvement of the social situation. Acceptance of responsibility for the self is vital, in Carpentier’s canon, for without such acceptance, positive commitment is impossible. Secondly, I have concluded that, according to Carpentier, commitment is an inevitable part of life, and that Carpentier’s goal, then, is that we should actively commit ourselves to a positive cause through recognition of our responsibility for ourselves and our society, rather than tacitly accept the status quo through a passive or deterministic attitude

    De la metonimia a la metáfora en dos novelas de Alejo Carpentier

    No full text
    La presente exégesis pretende describir cómo, Alejo Carpentier, se desprende de los surrealistas dando un nuevo matiz a sus hallazgos. Si el arte nuevo, como sostenían Ortega y Gasset y los formalistas rusos, representaba una reacción en contra del arte que lo precedía, se puede entender el afán de Carpentier por romper con las tendencias vanguardistas como un resultado natural. Apoyado está nuestro examen en dos novelas: El reino de este mundo (1949), y en Los pasos perdidos (1953). Los cambios políticos que emergieron después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial obligaban a los intelectuales latinoamericanos a cuestionar, si no, a abandonar totalmente, la tradición occidental como modelo ideal de civilización. Como resultado de sus preocupaciones por la identidad y la realidad latinoamericana, que lo condujeron a postular su peculiar concepto de las mismas, Carpentier tendió hacia la meta-ficción-histórica a lo largo de su vida. Proponemos además que tal concepto está basado formalmente en la metonimia en El reino de este mundo, y la metáfora en Los pasos perdidos.Depto. de Literaturas Hispánicas y BibliografíaFac. de Ciencias de la InformaciónTRUEpu

    Andrena (Rhacandrena) coruscata LaBerge 1977 Comments: This western species was flagged by LaBerge (1977) as potentially occurring in Minnesota, stating: “Two females from Minnehaha, Hennepin Co., Minnesota, seemingly are specimens of coruscata, although the head of one female is missing.” We have not examined these specimens and additional taxonomic investigation is required.Published as part of Portman, Zachary M., Gardner, Joel, Lane, Ian G., Gerjets, Nicole, Petersen, Jessica D., Ascher, John S., Arduser, Mike, Evans, Elaine C., Boyd, Crystal, Thomson, Robin & Cariveau, Daniel P., 2023, A checklist of the bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) of Minnesota, pp. 1-95 in Zootaxa 5304 (1) on page 76, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5304.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/804856
