Entre a política e a metafísica: filosofia política em Hannah Arendt e Eric Voegelin
Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Filosofia, Florianópolis, 2014.Esta tese parte do fato de que Hannah Arendt e Eric Voegelin tentam interpretar o fenômeno totalitário e o fazem de forma distinta. Arendt discorda do diagnóstico apontado por Voegelin que afirma que o totalitarismo tem suas origens a partir das seitas gnósticas. Essa discordância chama atenção para outros pontos críticos como é o caso da diferente concepção de política entre ambos: Eric Voegelin expõe sua preferência por teorias inauguradas por Platão e que seguem com o cristianismo, enquanto Arendt tenta encontrar um conceito puro de política que se perdeu na tradição. Por outro lado, há algumas semelhanças no trabalho dos dois autores, como é o caso da ideia de common sense, por exemplo. Todas essas temáticas serão tratadas nesta tese de doutorado cujo objetivo extrapola apenas a mera comparação entre os dois autores, mas também busca situá-los no quadro da filosofia política contemporânea.Abstract : Hannah Arendt and Eric Voegelin interpret differently the totalitarian phenomenon. Arendt disagrees with Voegelin about the nature of totalitarianism: he maintains the hypothesis that the totalitarianism is a kind of political religion and has their origins with the Gnostic sects. This discrepancy draws attention to the other aspects in Arendt's and Voegelin's framework, such as the different conception of politics among both autors: Eric Voegelin prefers the political philosophy of Plato and Arendt tries to find a pure concept of politics which was lost by tradition. In contrast, there are some similar characteristics among Arendt and Voegelin, like the idea about common sense, for example. All these issues will be problematized in this work, which goal goes beyond the simple comparison among Arendt and Voegelin, but tries to check the importance of the two thinkers in the contemporary political philosophy framework

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Differential modes of crosslinking establish spatially distinct regions of peptidoglycan in Caulobacter crescentus
The diversity of cell shapes across the bacterial kingdom reflects evolutionary pressures that have produced physiologically important morphologies. While efforts have been made to understand the regulation of some prototypical cell morphologies such as that of rod-shaped Escherichia coli, little is known about most cell shapes. For Caulobacter crescentus, polar stalk synthesis is tied to its dimorphic life cycle, and stalk elongation is regulated by phosphate availability. Based on the previous observation that C. crescentus stalks are lysozyme-resistant, we compared the composition of the peptidoglycan cell wall of stalks and cell bodies and identified key differences in peptidoglycan crosslinking. Cell-body peptidoglycan contained primarily DD-crosslinks between meso-diaminopimelic acid and D-alanine residues, whereas stalk peptidoglycan had more LD-transpeptidation (meso-diaminopimelic acid-meso-diaminopimelic acid), mediated by LdtD. We determined that ldtD is dispensable for stalk elongation; rather, stalk LD-transpeptidation reflects an aging process associated with low peptidoglycan turnover in the stalk. We also found that lysozyme resistance is a structural consequence of LD-crosslinking. Despite no obvious selection pressure for LD-crosslinking or lysozyme resistance in C. crescentus, the correlation between these two properties was maintained in other organisms, suggesting that DAP-DAP crosslinking may be a general mechanism for regulating bacterial sensitivity to lysozyme.Peer reviewe

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
