Educare la depressione. La scrittura, la lettura e la parola come pratiche di cura
No full textNonostante i diversi tentativi di inquadrare la patologia depressiva nel margine della comprensione scientifica (psichiatrica, psicologica e filosofica), a oggi il temibile cancro dell’anima suscita ancora molteplici e inquietanti interrogativi. Il sapere pedagogico, contraendosi pure a ragione sugli aspetti educativi dell’esistenza, ha mancato di dire la sua su un fenomeno così altamente complesso e talora debilitante. Di fatto, però, non esiste “la depressione”: le forme di depressione sono tante quante le persone che ne risultano affette. Di cosa dovrebbe occuparsi, peraltro, la pedagogia, se non di persone? Questo libro, che si rivolge agli addetti ai lavori, si presenta in primo luogo quale forma di aiuto e di sussidio da proporsi in forma mediata ai soggetti depressi. Le storie narrate da Tiziano Ferro, Veronica Pivetti, Roberto Gervaso e John Kirwan – tutte personalità di straordinario successo – confermano che la depressione può colpire chiunque e dimostrano la possibilità di uscirne o di imparare a conviverci: il suicidio non è una risposta al dramma depressivo, ma una sterile fuga dall’oscenità esistenziale. La ricerca scientifica, d’altronde, comprova come scrivere un diario e, a mente lucida, un’autobiografia possa coadiuvare l’alleggerimento del fardello e degli strascichi dell’angoscia depressiva. Il volume espone, in ultima analisi, i risultati di uno studio condotto su alcuni docenti brasiliani e sulle ragioni di origine psicologica e psichiatrica che hanno comportato la loro temporanea assenza dall’ambiente scolastico

Inclusive Education. Perspectives, reflections and case studies
No full textThe theme of this book is the “Inclusive Education”, it is inherently important in the present society, where people live longer. Health care and long term welfare are essential in the prospect of a longer life expectancy, trying to avoid a substantial impact on the cost of public healthcare and for the families. The theme becomes very relevant if we take in account the life of people with disabilities, with different levels of physical and psychic dependence. The authors of this book believe in this: another society is possible, it can grow taking in account the characteristics of groups and individuals with special needs and planning ways to help on these needs
Estudar e Trabalhar na Itália: instrumentos e procedimentos para a inclusão de pessoas com deficiência Studying and living in Italy: tools and procedures to include disabled people
No full textItaly is known for the best practices on educational and la- bour inclusion. An organic set of laws allows a full access to education and work, ensuring rights and necessary re- sources to disabled people, their families and organisations hosting them. The evolution of the Italian regulatory frame- work has resulted in the development of a theoreticand conceptual structure on special pedagogy and didactics, to follow the constant changes and demands of the institu- tions and society. This paper examines the evolution of laws that transformed Italy in the forefront in social inclusion as well as the different moments and scope of them concern- ing the participation of people with disabilities in education and work
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
No full text“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
No full textWe 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
