    Kant and Gerard on imagination

    No full text
    Alexander Gerard, a schottish philosopher, is nowadays almost forgotten, but at the time of Kant’s philosophical development he was a very popular author and his works were translated to german. Kant mentioned Gerard sometimes in his lectures on anthropology, particularly about genius and imagination. A near analysis and comparing of their conception of genius and imagination shows a significant influence of Gerard on Kant. Purpose of this paper is to analyse this influence in the particular case of imagination and active imagination.O filósofo escocês Alexander Gerard foi quase que inteiramente esquecido pela história da filosofia. Mas na época em que Kant estava desenvolvendo sua filosofia crítica, particularmente nos anos 1770, Gerard era um autor bastante popular, tendo seus principais escritos traduzidos inclusive para o alemão. Kant o menciona algumas vezes nas lições sobre antropologia, permitindo assim documentar sua leitura. Este artigo procura mostrar a influência de Gerard sobre Kant na concepção de uma imaginação ativa, peça central da filosofia transcendental kantiana

    Reconstructing embedded liberalism: John Gerard Ruggie and constructivist approaches to the study of the international trade regime

    No full text
    In 1982, John Gerard Ruggie published a study of the postwar international trade and monetary regimes in which he introduced the concept of ‘embedded liberalism’. A large and growing number of international trade scholars are finding Ruggie’s concept of embedded liberalism an appealing one, and it now occupies a significant place on our conceptual horizon. In this article, the author returns to Ruggie’s original article to excavate lessons which are peculiarly relevant for current trade law scholarship. He argues that Ruggie’s account of embedded liberalism usefully serves to destabilize common assumptions about the objectives and normative underpinnings of the trade regime and thereby to expand our conceptions of what a liberal trade regime might plausibly look like. On the other hand, he explains why he does not share the enthusiasm of those who see in embedded liberalism an attractive normative vision to guide WTO reform. In addition, and most importantly, the author draws attention to the constructivist theoretical framework of Ruggie’s piece. He suggests that Ruggie’s article provides a useful introduction to the central elements of constructivist thinking about international institutions and shows how attention to constructivist insights has the potential to significantly enrich and expand our understanding of the trade regime and of trade law

    Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2014.A presente tese tem como objetivo principal uma proposta de retradução comentada do romance Paut et Virginie do escritor francês Bernardin de Saint-Pierre. Como objetivo secundário, propõe-se uma análise das traduções brasileiras deste romance de 1906 à 2008 no sistema literário brasileiro sob o aspecto da "Visualização das Traduções" bem como um estudo dos paratextos traduzidos e não traduzidos. Tanto para a análise tradutória quanto para a retradução, são estudados trechos representativos a partir da teoria de Antoine Berman (1995), Gerard Genette (2010), Lawrence Venuti (1995). A análise dos excertos de narrativa poética baseia-se principalmente na teoria de Jean-Yves Tadié (1994).Abstract : The present work aims at proposing a commented retranslation on the novel Paul et Virginie, by the French author Bernardin de Saint-Pierre. As a secondary objective, we propose an analysis of the Brazilian translations of this novel from 1906 to 2008 into the Brazilian literary system under the perspective of "View of Translations" and a study of the translated and not translated paratexts. For both the translational analysis and the retranslation we used representative excerpts from the theoretical principles of Antoine Berman (1995), Gerard Genette (2010), and Lawrence Venuti (1995). The analysis of the excerpts of the poetic narrative is based mainly on Jean-Yves Tadié's theory
