Saúde e doença entre os índios Mura de Autazes (Amazonas): processos socioculturais e a práxis da auto-atenção
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-graduação em AntropologiaEsta dissertação é uma etnografia que trata da experiência de adoecer e curar-se, a partir de conceitos analíticos propostos pela Antropologia da Saúde. O objetivo é compreender como a sociedade Mura de Autazes (Amazonas) vivencia a hanseníase e os contextos em que essa experiência decorre. Trata-se de uma etnografia que procura situar experiências individuais e coletivas da doença em um quadro descritivo geral da sociedade Mura, cuja população é de 7.629 habitantes, distribuída em 27 aldeias. Destaca-se que, para a Organização Mundial de Saúde, a hanseníase é um problema de saúde pública no Brasil e o estado do Amazonas é classificado como hiper-endêmico pelo Ministério da Saúde. Do ponto de vista indígena e de suas lideranças, a hanseníase insere-se como problema e preocupação dentro de um conjunto de doenças, cujos diagnósticos e tratamentos relacionam-se diretamente com o Serviço de Saúde Estatal, ainda que, entre os Mura de Autazes, o número absoluto de casos de hanseníase seja pequeno (apenas 3 indivíduos estavam em tratamento no ano de 2006). Os dados apresentados e analisados foram obtidos através de trabalho de campo percorrendo seis aldeias Mura a partir da observação participante e da realização de entrevistas. Estas foram realizadas não apenas com pessoas que estiveram doentes, mas também, com seus familiares, vizinhos, amigos, lideranças e especialistas Mura (pajés, parteiras e herbanários) e, ainda, com profissionais de saúde. Os resultados apontam para a articulação de concepções nativas com práticas biomédicas em que são evocadas causalidades nativas para hanseníase, embora seja o diagnóstico biomédico quem focaliza os sintomas da hanseníase. Há uma percepção nativa que distingue casos antigos e recentes pautada nas mudanças ocorridas na oferta e na forma de tratamento biomédico. A construção social da doença, em seu contexto, dentro das relações sociais Mura, está permeada pelas relações micro-políticas que são estruturadas em torno de relações de parentesco (reciprocidade e co-substancialidade) estabelecendo e reestruturando estas mesmas relações.This dissertation is about experience of being ill and cure. It is based on analytic concepts proposed by the Anthropology of Health. It aims to understand how individuals of Mura's society of Autazes (Amazonas-Brazil) experiences "hanseníase" (leprosy) and the contexts that the experience happens. It is an ethnography that seeks to situate the individual and collective experiences of the illness in a descriptive frame of the Mura's society, whose population is about 7.629 inhabitants, distributed in 27 villages. For the World Health Organization, leprosy is a problem of public health in Brazil. The State of Amazonas is classified like hiperendemic by the Ministério da Saúde (Brazilian National Department of the Health). From the native point of view and for his leaders, "hanseníase" inserts itself as problem and worry inside a set of diseases, whose diagnoses and treatment are related directly with the Public Services of Health. Between the Mura, the absolute number of leprosy cases is small (only 3 individuals were under treatment in 2006). The data presented and analyzed here were obtained through a fieldwork carried out at six Mura villages through participant observation and interviews. These were carried out not only with persons that were patients, but also with their relatives, neighbors, friends, traditional leaders and Mura specialists (medicine men, midwives and people who knows medicine plants) and also professionals of health. The results point to the articulation of native conceptions with biomedical practices, which are evoked in natives causalities for "hanseníase", although is the biomedic diagnosis that focuses the symptoms of the "hanseníase". There is a perception that distinguishes the recent cases of the old cases, based on changes occurred in the offer and in the form of biomedic treatment. The social construction of the illness in a especific social context, inside the Mura´s social relations, is penetrated by the micro-political relations that are structured around relationship (thought reciprocity and co-substanciality) establishing and re-structuring these same relations

Μορμολύκειον: il mostro e la maschera nel 'Fedone'
No full textIn this paper, I shall discuss the origin of the well-known simile employed by Plato in Phaedo, 77e8: ὥσπερ τὰ μορμολύκεια. Since the term occurs for the first time in Aristophanes, the comparison in Phaedo underlies a link to the literary genre of comedy and, through comedy, to the genre of Aesopic fable. I shall prove this link through the analysis of the occurrences of Μορμώ and μορμολυκεῖον in Aristophanes. Aristophanic comedy also displays the telling of Aesopic tales, a literary form that Socrates employs in the first part of the Phaedo. Plato, when employing the comparison ὥσπερ τὰ μορμολύκεια closes the part of Phaedo where comedy was recalled in order to introduce the themes the literary form of dialogue deals with. The occurrence of μορμολυκεῖον in the Aesopic corpus (fab. 27 Haus.), which will be further analyzed, seems to confirm this hypothesis, rather than refuting it
An Epic Source for Aristophanes' τρυγῳδία
No full textThis paper aims to demonstrate that the noun τρυγῳδία coined by
Aristophanes can be connected to the passage of Iliad, Σ, 565-572. Another
aim is to underline that the term τρυγῳδία displays a particular connotation in
Aristophanes’ self-depiction, namely the connotation of the poet as a child.
Firstly, I remark that the noun τρυγῳδία is an Aristophanic coinage, by
analyzing the previous theories on this word and through a survey of the
other attestations. Secondly, I shall discuss the passage in which
Aristophanes employs the term for the first time (Ach. 497-500), especially
connecting it with the previous scene in Acharnians, in which Dikaiopolis
encounters Euripides and asks for elements useful for the poetical purpose of
the ῥῆσις μακρά (Ach. 416). In this passage, I underline that τρυγῳδία comes
after the scene in which Aristophanes depicts the autobiographical character
of Dikaiopolis as dressed with σπάργανα, the swaddling clothes with which
babies used to be dressed. This relevant point connects also the scene to
Homeric poetry, for the presence of σπάργανα in the Homeric Hymn to
Hermes. I finally propose that the term τρυγῳδία reflects this characterization
by recalling the Homeric passage (Σ, 565-572) of the child-aoidos during the
celebration for τρυγᾶν. Through the survey of these lines, I argue that model
is re-elaborated by Aristophanes, who bases his self-depiction as the poet of
peace on the action of τρυγᾶν. More precisely, τρυγᾶν can be seen as the
most joyful effect of Aristophanes’ διδάσκειν towards the Athenian audience.
This result seems to be strongly connected to peace and the poetics of peace,
in Aristophanes’ vie
