    A revelação na antropologia de René Girard: da mitologia à escatologia

    No full text
    A tese desenvolve a revelação de Deus com base na teoria mimética do antropólogo René Girard, deslocando-se da mitologia arcaica ao apocalipse cristão, com relevância à Bíblia hebraica e, principalmente, ao evento histórico Jesus de Nazaré, da encarnação à ressurreição. A reflexão acompanha os insights desse pensador francês sobre a literatura moderna e a tragédia grega, o judaísmo e o cristianismo, finalizando no apocalipse. Defendemos o sagrado e a religião como experiência estruturante do processo evolutivo, em que a construção histórico-cultural vincula-se diretamente à busca do transcendente. A revelação insere-se no desenvolvimento interno da hominização, a começar da pré-história à tradição judaico-cristã. Deus e religião estão no alfa e no ômega da humanidade de maneira dramática, catártica, dialética, profética e libertadora, que vai do sagrado violento à escatologia. Esse longo processo segue do início ao fim as categorias antropológicas, aproximando-se do Mistério pelo viés analítico-cultural, histórico e sociológico. O trabalho problematiza temáticas como: alteridade; descoberta do sagrado; função social da religião; novidade do Deus judaico; o evento Cristo, plenitude do divino e do humano, que desvenda a religião sacrifical fundada no linchamento coletivo do bode expiatório; a incapacidade humana de superar completamente o mimetismo nocivo; e o homem pleno, o qual nascerá no apocalipse pela intervenção divina. A teoria mimética, então, nasceu na literatura, cresceu no classicismo greco-romano, alcançou a maturidade na Bíblia hebraica e nos Evangelhos cristãos e atingirá a consumação no escatológico. Propomo-nos a contribuir para o diálogo entre Teologia e Ciência da Religião, ao mostrar a universalidade do sagrado e da religião nas culturas humanas, ao ressaltar o itinerário libertador da revelação, com o resgate da voz das vítimas silenciadas pela opressão das maiorias, e, sobretudo, ao esclarecer que violência e sacrifício são condutas humanas que não remontam a DeusThe thesis develops God’s revelation since the mimetic theory explained by the anthropologist René Girard from the archaic mythology to the Christian apocalypse, with relevance to the Hebrew Bible and, mainly, the historic event of Jesus of Nazareth, from his incarnation to his resurrection. The reflection accompanies the insights of the French philosopher from modern literature to the Greek tragedy, from the Jewish to Christianity, ending at the apocalypse. The thesis defends the sacred and the religion as structural experiences of the evolution process in which the historic cultural construction binds directly to the search of the transcendent. The revelation is inserted in the internal development of the humanization from the prehistory to the Christian Jewish tradition. God and religion are in the alpha and in the omega of the humanity in a dramatic, cathartic, dialect, prophetic and liberating way which is observed from the violent sacred to the eschatology. This long process follows the anthropology categories, approaches the Mystery through the cultural analytic, historical and sociological means. This study also conducts a set of thematic issues such as otherness, the discovering of the sacred, the social function of religion, the news of the Jewish God, and the event of Christ whose fullness of divine and human reveals the sacrificial religion based on the collective lynching of the scapegoat and the human inability to overcome the harmful mimicry as well. Ultimately, the full man is born in the apocalypse by divine intervention. Thus, the mimetic theory was born in the literature, grew up in the Roman Greek classicity, reached maturity in the Hebrew Bible and among the Christian Gospels, and finally will achieve the consummation in the eschatological. The proposal is a contribution on the dialog between theology and religion science, pointing out the universality of the sacred and the religion in human cultures, and emphasizes the importance of the liberating itinerary of the revelation that rescues the victims whose voices have been silenced by the oppression of the majority and, above all, clarifies that violence and sacrifice are human procedures that do not date back to GodCoordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPE

    O sacrifício de Cristo como superação do sacrifício antigo

    Este estudo analisa o sacrifício de Cristo como superação do sacrifício antigo, a partir do paradigma do mecanismo vitimário explicado pelo antropólogo francoamericano René Girard. A tese afronta o tema do sacrifício na perspectiva girardiana, evidenciando a evolução do seu pensamento: partindo do processo mimético que culmina na concepção clássica do bode expiatório como exorcização da violência comunitária, chega a uma concepção mais dialética, na qual mantendo a teoria arcaica, destaca a novidade cristã do sacrifício, enquanto dom de si mesmo pela vida do outro. A pesquisa insere-se no contexto dos estudos sobre a função da religião nas relações humanas, ou seja, o fenômeno religioso nas relações comunitárias, para, a partir de Girard, enfocar o sacrifício de Cristo como a maior expressão de amor da história, capaz de redimir o homem pecador. O estudo tem a humilde ambição de mostrar a extraordinária contribuição da teoria girardiana à teologia. Não apresenta uma discussão global do pensamento de Girard. Atem-se ao campo bíblico dogmático, verificando a possibilidade de uma compatibilidade entre a teologia católica e o pensamento girardiano em um ponto específico e absolutamente qualificante: o termo sacrifício pode perfeitamente ser aplicado ao evento da paixão de CristoThis study examines the sacrifice of Christ as a conquest of ancient sacrifice, from the paradigm of victimizing mechanism explained by Franco-American anthropologist René Girard. The thesis affront the theme of sacrifice in perspective Girard, highlighting the evolution of his thought: from the mimetic process that culminates in the classic concept of the scapegoat as exorcism of community violence, it reaches a more dialectic, in which maintaining the archaic theory, highlights the Christian message of sacrifice as gift of self for the life of another. The research fits into the context of studies on the role of religion in human relations, that is, the phenomenon of religion in community relations, to, from Girard, focusing on the "sacrifice of Christ as the greatest expression of love of history able to redeem sinful man. The study has a humble ambition to show the extraordinary contribution of theory Girard theology. It presents an overall discussion of the thought of Girard. Keep is the dogmatic biblical field, including the possibility of the compatibility between Catholic theology and thought Girard at a specific point and absolutely qualifying: the word sacrifice can be perfectly applied to the event of Christ's passio

    JUNG MO SUNG E RENÉ GIRARD: DIÁLOGO ENTRE TEOLOGIA DA LIBERTAÇÃO E TEORIA MIMÉTICA

    The article investigates the similarities between the work of Jung Mo Sung and that of René Girard. I discussed the presence of mimetic theory in the mission of the theologian and economist to unveil the nuances of the idolatry of the market with its myths and, above all, its need for sacrifices of the poor. It shows that the studies of the French-American anthropologist have accompanied those of the liberation theologian since the meeting in Piracicaba, 1990, although he has his originalities.O artigo investiga as aproximações entre a obra de Jung Mo Sung com a de René Girard.

    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

    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
