    Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura.No conjunto das narrativas ficcionais da escritora brasileira Ana Miranda, a temática da viagem # considerada uma das mais férteis da literatura ocidental de todos os tempos # ocupa um espaço de centralidade, podendo até mesmo ser vista como o mais importante eixo de estruturação de suas obras. O estudo realizado pela presente tese tem por objetivo analisar o tratamento dado ao tema da viagem nos romances Desmundo, O retrato do rei, Dias & Dias e Amrik, evidenciando que por intermédio das narradora-viajantes # Oribela, Mariana, Feliciana e Amina # a autora promove um diálogo entre diferentes culturas, gêneros, etnias e gerações, ao mesmo tempo em que estabelece um profícuo diálogo com o passado em sua invariante problematização concernente aos limites e cruzamentos entre o discurso ficcional e os discursos narrativos extraliterários que o cercam, sobretudo o histórico e o biográfico. In the whole of Brazilian writer Ana Miranda#s fictional narrative, the travel thematic # considered one of the most fertile themes of the western literature of all times # occupies a central space, and can even been seen as the most important structuring axis of Miranda#s works. The aim of the present thesis is to analyze the treatment given to the travel subject in the novels Desmundo, O retrato do rei, Dias & Dias and Amrik, emphasizing that, through the traveling narrators, Oribela, Mariana, Feliciana and Amina, the author promotes a connection between different cultures, genders, ethnics and generations, at the same time that establishes a profitable dialogue with the past in her invariant problematization concerning the limits and crossings between the fictional and the extra-literary narrative discourses that surrounds it, mainly the historical and the biographic ones

Measurements See Table 2. Distribution Charinus vulgaris was described from Porto Velho, Rondônia (southern Amazonia) but has also been collected in a disturbed area of Salvador, Bahia (eastern Brazil). There is reason to suspect that the population in Salvador was introduced from Amazonia, because of the human history in the area. During the gold rush in Rondônia, when intensive mining occuring at the Madeira River, large numbers of people migrated between northeastern Brazil and Porto Velho, facilitating the translocation of species such as C. vulgaris along with plants. Natural history All specimens collected thus far are female, suggesting this species is parthenogenetic, and bolstering the hypothesis that its occurrence in Salvador may be the result of translocation from Porto Velho.

    The Prospero of Wonderland; or, Miranda Carroll, Author of Station Eleven

    No full text
    Analysis of Emily St. John Mandel\u27s novel Station Eleven and its Shakespearean antecedents, particularly The Tempest. This article reads Mandel\u27s character Miranda Carroll as an artist-figure comparable to Prospero. I argue that Miranda is the embedded author of the entire Station Eleven--both pre- and post-pandemic--in ways that mirror themes of revenge and forgiveness in The Tempest

    Miranda: ustavna pravica ali ne?

    No full text
    Avtorica v prispevku analizira razvoj mirande v ZDA od leta 1966 do danes in primerja današnjo ameriško mirando s slovensko. V prispevku zagovarja stališče, da je bistvena razlika med njima v tem, da ima slovenski kazenski postopek dve mirandi, ameriški pa eno. Ameriška miranda se namreč uporablja, ko je osumljencu od vzeta prostost in je ob tem zaslišan, medtem ko se slovenska miranda uporablja, ko je osumljencu odvzeta prostost ali ko je zaslišan s strani policije, ob tem da je miranda ob odvzemu prostosti ustavna pravica, miranda ob zaslišanju pa ne vedno. Avtorica z analizo odločb Vrhovnega sodišča ZDA pri kaže, da se je ameriška miranda v zadnjih letih zelo približala kontinentalnemu kazenskemu postopku, predvsem v smislu spreminjanja mirande v luči iskanja materialne resnice. Vrhovno sodišče ZDA je namreč s svojimi odločitvami uvedlo številne izjeme od originalne Mirande, ki so v lanskem letu pripeljale do tega, da se lahko na sojenju zoper obdolženca uporabi fizični dokaz, ki je bil pridobljen s kršenjem mirande. Avtorica je mnenja, da je takšna miranda zelo podobna slovenski mirandi v pred kazenskem postopku, ki dopušča policijsko zaslišanje osumljenca brez prisotnosti zagovornika, na podlagi katerega policija sicer res napravi »le« uradni zaznamek, vendar pa lahko policija na podlagi takega uradnega zaznamka zakonito zbira dokaze, hkrati pa se s takim za znamkom lahko seznani tudi sodnik, ki odloča o glavni stvari. Avtorica v razpravi opozori na pomembno dejstvo, da se slovenska in ameriška ureditev v svojih ustavnih določbah bistveno razlikujeta. Ustava ZDA namreč nima izrecnih določb o pravici do molka ali pravici do zagovornika ob odvzemu prostosti in policijskem zaslišanju, za to je miranda le eden iz med načinov varovanja privilegija zoper samoobtožbo. Miranda tako ni ustavno zavarovana pravica, njeno kršenje pa samo po sebi še ne predstavlja upravičenega razloga za izločitev tako pridobljenih dokazov. Ustava RS ima na drugi strani izrecno določbo o pravici do molka in pravici do zagovornika ob odvzemu prostosti, zato slovenska miranda ob odvzemu prostosti ni le način varovanja privilegija zoper samoobtožbo, tem več ustavna pravica. Prav zato ureditev policijske ga zaslišanja v pred kazenskem postopku v primerih, ko je to povezano z odvzemom prostosti in ko osumljencu obenem ni zagotovljena pomoč zagovornika, ni skladna z Ustavo RS. V takih primerih se na podlagi uradnega zaznamka ne bi smelo pridobivati drugih dokazov oziroma bi morali biti ta ki dokazi izločeni, prav tako pa bi moral bi ti izločen uradni za znamek, saj gre za neposredno kršitev ustavne določbe o pravici do zagovornika.The author analyzes and discusses the development of the American Miranda from 1966 until today and compares it with the Slovene miranda. She argues that the main difference between them is in the conditions under which Miranda applies and in the constitutional protection each of them is afforded. The American miranda applies when a suspect is taken into custody and she is interrogated, while the Slovene miranda applies if a suspect is either taken into custody or she is interrogated by the police. In the former case miranda is protected by the Slovene Constitution, but not in the latter. Through the analysis of the jurisprudence of the US Supreme Court the author demonstrates that the American regulation of miranda has become very close to what is considered to be the continental approach to the criminal procedure in the last few years, since the US Supreme Court, in the name of finding the material truth at trials has recognized numerous exceptions to miranda. The latest exception to miranda allows for the state at a trial to introduce the physical evidence derived from a statement of the defendant who had not been given the Miranda warnings. The author argues that the American miranda with the applicable exceptions is very similar to the miranda of the Slovene Criminal Procedure Act that allows for the police interrogation without the presence of an attorney, which is evidenced “only” by the official note, which is not regarded as a formal evidence, but on the basis of which the police may lawfully seek other evidence and which the trial judge is free to review. The author emphasizes the difference between the Slovene and the American constitutional provisions related to miranda, especially in the view of the nature of the protection that each provides for the miranda rights. Since the American Constitution has no explicit provisions regarding the right to remain silent and the right to the assistance of an attorney, miranda is only one of the ways to safeguard the privilege against self-incrimination. Therefore, miranda itself is not a constitutional right and a violation of miranda without more does not justify the exclusion of an evidence obtained in the violation of miranda. The Slovene Constitution, on the other hand, has explicit provisions concerning the right to remain silent and the right to the assistance of an attorney in cases where the freedom to move is restricted in a significant way, therefore the Slovenian miranda in cases where the suspect is taken into custody is not only a way of safeguarding the privilege against self-incrimination, but a constitutionally protected right. The author argues that precisely for this reason, the regulation of the police interrogation in cases where a suspect is taken into custody and is not afforded the assistance of an attorney is not in accordance with the provisions of the Slovene Constitution. In cases like that the evidence derived from such official note should be excluded as well as the official note itself, since it was obtained in a way that directly violates the constitutional provisions with respect to the right to the assistance of an attorney

    o caso da assembleia de deus seta em araguína, tocantins.

    The present dissertation aims to analyze the political culture of conservative bias present in the political and religious relations of the Assembly of God, Seta, in Araguaína-TO. In order to do so, we used as sources the oral reports of the pastors and leaders of the aforementioned Church, which were produced through semi-structured questionnaires, based on the approach of Oral History by Alessandro Portelli (2010). Since this is an interdisciplinary approach (POMBO, 2020), we seek to articulate two theoretical-analytical dimensions: the discussion about territory from Rogério Haesbaert's perspective of multi- territoriality and symbolic territory; and Pierre Bourdieu's (1982; 2006; 2008) approach to power constructed from a symbolic economy that articulates the religious and political fields. From this investigation, we concluded that the customs guidelines, which, have been becoming an important currency in the symbolic economy of the religious and political fields, were mobilized by AG Seta, especially since the 2000s onwards, as an instrument of electoral power both within the scope of production and reproduction of the beliefs of their lay people, as well as the strengthening of their power within local politics, which culminates in the rise of leaders who use the religious agenda to reach positions within the legislature and executive.A presente dissertação tem como objetivo analisar a cultura política de viés conservador presente nas relações políticas e religiosas da Assembleia de Deus (AD), Serviço de Evangelização dos Rios Tocantins e Araguaia (Seta), em Araguaína-TO. Para tanto, utilizamos como fontes os relatos orais dos pastores e dirigentes da referida Igreja, os quais foram produzidos por meio de questionários semiestruturados sob a abordagem de História Oral de Alessandro Portelli (2010). Tratando-se de uma abordagem interdisciplinar (POMBO, 2020), buscamos articular duas dimensões teórico-analíticas: a discussão sobre território, a partir da perspectiva de Rogério Haesbaert sobre multiterritorialidade e território simbólico; e a abordagem do poder construído a partir de uma economia simbólica que articula o campo religioso e o político, sob a perspectiva de Pierre Bourdieu (1982; 2006; 2008). Dessa investigação, resultou a conclusão de que as pautas de costumes — as quais vêm se tornando importante moeda na economia simbólica dos campos relogioso e político — foram mobilizadas pela AD Seta, especialmente a partir dos anos 2000, como instrumento de poder eleitoral. Esse instrumento, tanto na produção/reprodução da crença de seus leigos como no fortalecimento de seu poder dentro da política local, culmina com a ascensão de líderes que se valem da pauta religiosa para atingir posições dentro do legislativo e do executivo

    Aleks Sierz, author and theatre critic, also teaches courses on postwar British theatre for various universities, in the UK and in Germany. His most famous contribution to research on drama is probably his reference study of “in-yer-face theatre” (In-Yer-Face Theatre. British Drama Today, Faber, 2001), but he also published books on prominent playwrights (Martin Crimp, John Osborne), as well as more extensive studies of contemporary theatre in Britain (Rewriting the Nation: British Theatre To..

    Carine Lounissi, Thomas Paine and the French Revolution.

    No full text
    Carine Lounissi’s study of the ‘French Paine’ is a highly valuable and necessary contribution to the wealth of scholarly work devoted to the self-styled citizen of the world. The author builds on her more theoretical study of Thomas Paine’s writings, published in 2012, to construct a contextualized portrait of the international revolutionary during the years he spent in France as an observer, commentator and agent of the French Revolution between 1787 and 1802. In doing so, she has addressed ..

    Laurent Curelly, An Anatomy of an English Radical Newspaper: The Moderate (1648-9)

    Laurent Curelly’s title is a tribute to the many Anatomies that were published in the early seventeenth century—not least to Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy: the preface to the fifth edition lends an introductory quote that reveals and derides the contemporary crave for news. An Anatomy of an English Radical Newspaper: The Moderate (1648-9) indeed “dissects” [4] the 66 issues of The Moderate that were published between June 1648 and September 1649. The author further resorts to the metaphor of..
