Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Park Eunju
Published: October 2022

Objectives This study attempted to find out the form of linkage between the two projects and teachers' perception of them in linking the village education community and educational welfare projects based on the curriculum in unit schools.
Methods The purposes of this study, data on the village education community and educational welfare projects of ○○ Elementary School in Gwangju Metropolitan City were collected. In addition, one-on-one in-depth interviews were conducted with seven teachers. The collected interview contents were categorized through open coding, categorization, and category confirmation process. In order to secure its validity and reliability, the Participant Identification Act was implemented.
Results The link between the village education community and the educational welfare priority support project was systematic with the detailedness of village resource exploration and curriculum analysis and continuous operation of the consultative body. The two were complementary in their use of the budget. The interviews were categorized into five categories. These are “expanding awareness of the operating form of education welfare priority support projects,” “synergy effect of linking village schools with education welfare projects,” “recognition of the importance of village education communities,” “effectiveness of curriculum linkage,” and “difficulty in realizing village education communities,” and “The value of a project class that combines reality”.
Conclusions Teachers think positively of the educational effect on the connection between the village education community and the educational welfare priority support project. However, I thought that linking the two projects was difficult in terms of the work of the teacher in charge of it, especially in establishing a network and securing/exchanging village resources. In order to improve this, it was suggested that there should be an increase in autonomy suitable for the unit school situation and a system to support it.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Choi Jeong-yun , Yang Jung-Ho
Published: October 2022

Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the status of expenses to use centers for education, childcare, and private education for children at the age of 0 to 6 to and analyze factors influencing expenditure for education.
Methods We utilized data from the 7th Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women & Families (KLoWF) in 2018 and collected data from 328 married women who have children under six year of age and responded to the question of whether they use childcare facilities or not. This study conducted descriptive statistical analysis, t-test, and F-test to examine the status of expenses of education, childcare, and private education for children. To analyze factors influencing their expenses for education, this study performed multiple regression analysis.
Results According to the results, parents spend 158,800 won for education each month, and among that, 138,100 won is for childcare and 298,100 won is for private education. According to the results of multiple regression analysis, factors influencing their expenditure for education are found to be monthly average household income, the number of children and the first child age. When monthly average household income is higher, children are fewer and the first child age is older, they spend more money for education. Meanwhile, the age of a mother has positive correlation with educational expenditure; however, the influence is found to differ according to the models of analysis.
Conclusions Based on the findings, this study has drawn several policy implications as follows. First, since the difference between household incomes results in a gap in education from early childhood, it is needed to improve supportive policy to provide extracurricular activities after school and give more opportunity of childcare services for the low-income group. Second, as children get older, the aspects of preliminary learning and caregiving before entering school should be approached; therefore, it is necessary to build up a system for making education in daycare centers and kindergartens public and developing after-school class such as caregiving class.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Youn Jung-Hee , Hwang Hye-jeong
Published: October 2022

Objectives To determine the mediating effect of peer relationship quality on the relationship between emotion regulation ability and school life adaptation of middle school students.
Methods The emotion regulation ability scale reconstructed for adolescents by Oh Jihye (2011), the school life adaptation scale by Lee Gyumi and Kim Myungsik (2008), and the peer relationship quality scale revised and complemented by Kim Jinkyung and Yoo Anjin (2002) were used for 372 second graders in three middle schools in H city, Gyeonggi province. In addition to general descriptive statistical analysis, a three-stage hierarchical regression analysis was conducted to confirm the mediating effect of peer relationship quality on the impact of emotion regulation ability on school life adaptation.
Results The results are as follows. First, there were significant positive correlations between all major variables in the correlation between middle school students’ emotion regulation ability, peer relationship quality, and school life adaptation. In other words, the higher the emotion regulation ability, the higher the peer relationship quality, and the higher the emotion regulation ability, the better the school life adaptation. In addition, the higher the peer relationship quality, the better the school life adaptation. Second, according to the results of determining the mediating effect of peer relationship quality on the relationship between middle school students’ emotion regulation ability and school life adaptation, peer relationship quality partially mediated the relationship between emotion regulation ability and school life adaptation. This means that emotion regulation ability has a direct effect on the school life adaptation of middle school adolescents, and also has an indirect effect through peer relationships.
Conclusions It is necessary to improve the peer relationship quality of adolescents by providing various activity experiences based on educational guidance and counseling intervention strategies and prepare specific measures for students to actively adapt to school life.

Published: October 2022

Objectives This study focuses on the difficulties of teaching-learning occurring in multicultural classrooms with diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds of students. It was intended to seek ways to ensure learning equity and in-depth understanding of all students. In other words, the purpose is to examine the application of classes for language development in multicultural classrooms and to design classes that support language development by applying backward design.
Methods To achieve the purpose of the study, literature analysis and unit design research were conducted. Through literature analysis, the study analyzed the role of language in learning equity, in-depth learning, backward design, and learning and class in multicultural instruction classroom, and revealed the foundation of class application. After that, science and unit were developed through unit design research.
Results For the class reflecting culture, language and diversity in the multicultural classroom, the responsive instructional studies that understand the characteristics of multicultural students and emphasize specific practice were significant. Therefore, as a way to promote the learning and language development of the subject on the basis of the application of this class, the unit of ‘properties of matter’ in the third grade science class of elementary school was developed by applying the linguistic lens to the backward design.
Conclusions Backward design applying a linguistic lens is a useful way to develop a rigorous curriculum to provide equal learning opportunities to all students in subject learning in multicultural classrooms.

Published: October 2022

Objectives This study aims to examine the teachers' experience in art appreciation education using metaverse and to explore the possibility of using metaverse in the field of art appreciation education.
Methods In order to achieve the research objectives, qualitative research data were collected through in-depth interviews with ten teachers who had a class experience using metaverse. In-depth interviews with ten learners were simultaneously conducted to complementally explain the teacher's experience. The results of the interviews were analyzed with grounded theory presented by Strauss and Corbin (2015).
Results As a result of analyzing the transcribed data from in-depth interviews with teachers and learners, 95 concepts, 23 sub-categories, and 12 upper-categories were derived.
Conclusions In the art appreciation education using metaverse, teachers said that they were interested but did not satisfy their needs. Therefore, in order to increase the possibility of educational use of metaverse in the field of art appreciation education, it was concluded that the metaverse class ecosystem should be improved. As an improvement plan, an establishment of class support system was proposed to promote teachers and students' awareness of using metaverse and to provide metaverse art appreciation education.

Published: October 2022

Dementias constitute a group of degenerative diseases that affect different domains within human cognition. While the usual course is chronically progressive, a small group of patients develops a subacute deterioration in months, an entity that is called rapidly progressive dementia. For these patients, an approach based on considering reversible etiologies is mandatory, and its diagnosis must be taken into consideration not only in immunocompromised patients by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) but also in patients with other causes of immunosuppression. We report the case of a patient with chronic use of steroids that developed rapidly progressive dementia as the sole manifestation of cryptococcal meningoencephalitis.

Diet of the Dusky finless skate Gurgesiella furvescens (Chondrichthyes: Rajidae) from the continental shelf and slope of the north-central area of Chile
Authors: Ponce Tania S. , Cubillos Luis A. , Acuña Enzo , Gatica Cecilia
Published: October 2022

The dusky finless skate Gurgesiella furvescens appears sporadically as part of the bycatch in the trawl fishery targeting demersal crustaceans on the continental shelf and upper slope of the north-central area of Chile (26ºS-33ºS). Demersal crustaceans could be forage for deep-water predators such as G. furvescens, and sizes and shapes of prey eaten could be restricted by mouth size. The diet composition of G. furvescens was determined based on specimens collected from the bycatch of trawls targeting demersal crustaceans in 2013. Stomach contents revealed nylon shrimp Heterocarpus reedi (32.8% by weight), deep-water shrimp Haliporoides diomedeae (7.2% by weight), and indeterminate crustaceans (9.0% by weight). The diet composition was similar between sexes, body length, or depth strata. Prey size was a linear function of Gurgesiella furvescens mouth width, and prey mass positively related with G. furvescens individual mass. Although squat-lobsters Pleuroncodes monodon and Cervimunida johni were abundant in the study area, the nylon shrimp and deep-water shrimp in the diet of G. furvescens may be due to the preference or selection of this kind of prey in deep waters.
Caracterización morfológica preliminar de las estructuras dérmicas de tres especies de batoideos (Chondrichthyes: Batoidea) en el litoral peruano
Authors: Sánchez-Rea Angie , Kanagusuku Keny
Published: October 2022

Algunas especies de batoideos poseen una cobertura dérmica con variaciones morfológicas utilizadas para taxonomía Esta investigación caracteriza morfológicamente las estructuras dérmicas de batoideos desembarcados en el litoral peruano, de acuerdo a las especies, zonas del cuerpo, etapa de desarrollo y sexo. Se analizaron 3 especies: Pseudobatos planiceps, Rostroraja velezi y Sympterygia brevicaudata, adquiridas de la pesca artesanal desde el norte al sur del país. Se identificaron tres tipos de estructuras: dentículos dérmicos, tubérculos cutáneos y espinas. Diversas estructuras dérmicas están presentes desde el nacimiento de los individuos. En Rajiformes, las diferencias entre sexos radicaron en la existencia de espinas malares y alares en machos. La presencia de poros en el lado ventral de la base de tubérculos y espinas de Rhinopristiformes, difiere de los Rajiformes, que presentan una cavidad donde se aloja la piel y se extiende hasta la base de la cavidad de la pulpa. Las diferencias en la morfología de estructuras dérmicas estuvieron relacionadas a las zonas del cuerpo evaluadas y a los patrones de cobertura dérmica entre especies. Además, estos resultados demuestran que la metodología utilizada en el presente estudio permite realizar una determinación a nivel de especie.

La edad y crecimiento fueron calculadas a partir de la lectura de bandas en secciones vertebrales evaluando cinco modelos de crecimiento. El rango de tallas registrado en los muestreos de los desembarques comerciales fue de 37 y 89 cm de longitud total (LT) para machos y entre 39 y 106 cm para hembras. Las edades observadas fueron entre 1 a 15 años para machos y 1 a 21 años para hembras. El modelo de von Bertalanffy de 2 fases para ambos sexos juntos fue seleccionado como el más adecuado según el ajuste estadístico y el criterio biológico, estimándose los siguientes parámetros: edad a la talla cero t0= -3,56 años (talla de nacimiento L0= 35,7cm); talla asintótica L∞= 103,12cm; y coeficiente de crecimiento K= 0,12 años-1. La longevidad estimada fue de 21 años. Los machos y hembras maduran a una edad y talla media similar de 5,6 años y LT50% de 66,9 cm. No se encontraron diferencias entre sexos en las curvas de crecimiento. Este estudio contribuye al conocimiento de las características de historia de vida de la especie en el sur del Atlántico sudoccidental (ASO) reportando que M. schmitti tiene un crecimiento moderado, es una de las especies más longevas dentro del género y tiene una edad media de madurez temprana que representa aproximadamente un cuarto de la longevidad estimada.
Anatomy of the neurocranium, encephalon, and main sensory organs of the roundel skate, Rostroraja texana (Rajiformes: Rajidae)
Authors: Kobelkowsky Abraham , Ramírez-Díaz Cristina
Published: October 2022

The organization of the neurocranium, the encephalon, and the main sensory organs of Rostroraja texana (Family Rajidae) corresponds to the general morphological pattern of the elasmobranchs and, in particular, of the batoids. The neurocranium presents the rostrum, which corresponds to about 50% of the cranial length; additionally, it shows two dorsal fontanelles of similar shape and size. The anatomical relations of the neurocranium of R. texana are with the encephalon, the main sensory organs, the antorbital, synarcual, and spiracular cartilages, and with the mandibular, hyoid, and extra-ocular musculature. The encephalon is relatively narrow. The cerebellum is symmetrical and shows a partial division in the anterior and posterior portions. In the olfactory system, the following characteristics stand out: the external pigmentation of the olfactory organs, the high number of olfactory lamellae, and the asymmetry of the olfactory bulbs. In the optical system, the presence of the pupillary operculum and the division into two sections of the superior oblique muscle is notable. And, in the statoacoustic system, the large size of the saccular otoconia stands out.

Published: October 2022

The deep-sea fishery for Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) in Peru offers the opportunity to document species that may be new or rare to the region, or possibly new to science. Here, we report specimens caught, photographed and discarded in a vessel operating in the deep-sea fishery for D. eleginoides, during two fishing trips in 2019 and 2020. Five specimens of three chondrichthyan species were caught incidentally at an average depth of 1,489 m. Species identification was done from photographs as specimens were discarded, and they include Centroscyllium cf. nigrum, Bathyraja cf. spinosissima, and Hydrolagus melanophasma. All are new records for Peruvian waters. Continuing the collaboration with commercial fisheries as a source of information for deep-sea species could greatly contribute to improving our understanding of marine biodiversity in Peru and inform conservation decision-making.

Published: October 2022

Some of the characters used in description and identification keys for skates are mostly valid for adults, and may dramatically change through ontogeny. The lack of morphological description of the neonate stage prevents from identifying them in nature. Two neonates of Psammobatis lentiginosa born in captivity and three collected from the wild were used in this study. Morphometric differences were found in distance between orbits, distance between first gill slits and epichordal lobe. Colour pattern and spinulation presented differences as well. Observations on incubation period were taken. Hatching occurred 130 days after egg case collection.

Authors: Cevallos-Garcias Adriana , Hernández Sebastián , Raredon Sandra J. , Ebert David A. , Kyne Peter M.
Published: October 2022

The Sharpfin Houndshark, Triakis acutipinna, was described in 1968 from a specimen captured from Isla de la Plata, Ecuador. Since then, there have been no confirmed records of the species. To investigate the contemporary occurrence of this ‘lost shark’, a multi-pronged approach was undertaken. This included a literature review, development of an educational poster, and conducting a small number of informal fisher interviews in five coastal communities of Manabí province, Ecuador. Half of the fishers interviewed recognized T. acutipinna and reported its capture as recently as 2010-2015. Despite the preliminary nature of the present study, it suggests that the lost shark of Ecuador persists.
Bursts of transposable elements and adaptive evolution of fig wasps
Authors: Liu Jing , Miao Yun-Heng , Huang Da-Wei , Xiao Jinhua
Published: October 2022

The mutualistic lifestyle of pollinating fig wasps and fig trees
provides an excellent model for studying ecological and adaptive
evolution issues. Transposable elements (TEs), as an important component
of the genomes, are powerful driver for organisms to adapt to
environment. Here, the genomic TEs of six pollinating fig wasps and five
non-pollinating fig wasps were analyzed in the characteristics of
composition and their effects on genome size, the historical burst
patterns and their association with effective population size and
paleoclimate changes, to infer the role of TEs in environmental
adaptation in fig wasps. Compared with non-pollinators, pollinators’ TEs
showed a significantly different burst state with less types and amount,
shorter lengths, and lower contents in the genomes. The recent smaller
effective population size and contractive demography failed to cause
pollinators to accumulate more TEs, while the large number of TEs
accumulated in non-pollinators positively correlated with their
population expansion. The major TEs burst peaks in the history of
pollinators highly overlapped with the warmer times in the Coolhouse in
geological history. TEs located in the major peak period were mostly
inserted near genes related to environment information processing such
as Circadian entrainment pathway, and might act as CRMs (cis-regulatory
modules) to regulate the conjunctive genes in response to paleoclimate
changes in pollinators. These results revealed the molecular basis of
the fig wasp’s response to changes in the syconia microenvironment and
paleoclimate macroenvironment from the perspective of genomic TEs.

Authors:   Korean Academy of Integrated Care Management, Hong Seokho , Zhang Guoyan , Jang Eunha
Published: October 2022

As the numbers of elderly people are rapidly increasing, long-term care insurance, introduced to elevating the quality of life of the elderly and relieve the burden of their families’ support, has been in existence for 15 years. The purpose of this study was to build a theoretical foundation for elevating the quality of life of the elderly, by systematically synthesizing empirical studies on the quality of life of the elderly using long-term care services. In this study, 1,797 documents were searched by combining keywords such as  and  in three web databases of KCI, RISS, and e-articles published July 1, 2008-April 1, 2022. The final 30 documents were selected and analyzed, by applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria to the literature. As a result, first, it was feasible to categorize variables related to long-term care services into three factors (institutional, service, and individual factors). Second, it was confirmed that the quality of life of the elderly was directly or indirectly impacted by service satisfaction, as well as individual factors, in addition to institutional factors. Third, it was found that the quality of life of the elderly was significantly related to demographic characteristics as well as physical function, subjective health status, emotional/ psychological, and social function. Based on the results, practical and policy recommendations and follow-up research directions are suggested, to improve the quality of life of the elderly using long-term care services.
Corrosion protection properties of polypyrrole coatings formed onto 316 L SS from a solution containing molybdate and salicylate
Authors: Ramos Camila , González Maria , Brugnoni Lorena , Saidman Silvana
Published: October 2022

The electrosynthesis of PPy films onto 316L stainless steel from nearly neutral and alkaline solutions containing molybdate and salicylate is reported. The corrosion behaviour of the coatings constituted by hollow rectangular microtubes was monitored in Ringer solution using open circuit potential measurements, polarization techniques and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The polymer formed in a solution of pH 8 was the most efficient in terms of corrosion protection. The coating significantly reduced the pitting corrosion of the substrate. The results were interpreted taking into consideration the polymer electroactivity, the galvanic interaction polypyrrole/substrate and the nature of dopants. Silver species were effectively immobilized onto the hollow rectangular-sectioned microtubes of PPy. The modified coatings demonstrated that they have a good bactericidal activity against Escherichia coli and they were also able to protect the substrate against corrosion in Ringer solution.
How Do Firms Respond to a Non-Income Tax? The Interplay between Non-Income Taxes and Income Tax Avoidance
Authors: Huston G. Ryan , Wang Yangmei , Wang Tiankai
Published: October 2022

SYNOPSIS

The Medical Device Excise Tax (MDET) enacted a 2.3 percent tax on domestic sales of certain medical devices. Medical device firms suggested the tax would reduce profitability, leading to cuts in employees, research and development, and capital expenditures. However, we find that medical device firms engaged in more income tax avoidance in response to the MDET. Furthermore, medical device firms with high income tax avoidance made no significant cuts to investment spending or employees, whereas firms with low income tax avoidance significantly decreased investment spending and employees. Our findings suggest that some medical device firms used income tax avoidance as a substitute for reducing investment spending. Our results serve to inform both researchers and policymakers regarding the interplay between non-income taxes and income tax avoidance.

Published: October 2022

OBJECTIVES:
To assess the prevalence of household food insecurity (HFI) and Supplemental
Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participation in youth and young adults (YYA)
with diabetes overall, by type, and sociodemographic characteristics.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND
METHODS: The study included participants with youth-onset type 1
diabetes and type 2 diabetes from the SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth study. HFI
was assessed using the 18-item U.S. Household Food Security Survey Module (HFSSM)
administered from 2016-2019; ³3 affirmations on the HFSSM were considered indicative
of HFI. Participants were asked about SNAP participation. Chi-square tests were
used to assess whether the prevalence of HFI and SNAP participation differed by
diabetes type. Multivariable logistic regression
models were used to examine differences in HFI by participant characteristics.

RESULTS: Of 2561
respondents (age range 10-35 years; 79.6% ≤ 25 years), 2177 had type 1 diabetes
(mean age 21.0 years, 71.8% non-Hispanic white, 11.8% non-Hispanic black, 13.3%
Hispanic, 3.1% other) and 384 had type 2 diabetes (mean age 24.7 years, 18.8%
non-Hispanic white, 45.8% non-Hispanic black, 23.7% Hispanic, 18.7% other). The
overall prevalence of HFI was 19.7% (95% CI 18.1, 21.2). HFI was more prevalent
in type 2 diabetes than type 1 diabetes (30.7% vs. 17.7%, p< 0.01). In
multivariable regression models, YYA on Medicaid/Medicare or without insurance,
with lower parental education, and with lower household income had greater odds
of experiencing HFI. SNAP participation was 14.1% (95% CI 12.7, 15.5) with
higher participation among those with type 2 diabetes compared to type 1
diabetes (34.8% vs. 10.7%; p<0.001).

CONCLUSIONS: Almost 1
in 3 YYA with type 2 diabetes and more than 1 in 6 with type 1 diabetes reported
HFI in the past year, a significantly higher prevalence than the general U.S.
population.
Retos y perspectivas de la educación universitaria intercultural en tiempos de pandemia. Una visión docente
Authors: García Rodríguez José Félix , Chávez Pérez José Andrés , Contreras de la Cruz José Ramón , Martínez Pérez Lenín , Pineda Celaya Lourdes del Carmen
Published: October 2022

El propósito de esta investigación fue describir, desde la percepción de los docentes de una universidad intercultural del sureste de México, las principales adversidades y experiencias positivas que significó la adopción de una práctica educativa virtual y a distancia a causa de la pandemia de covid-19, al igual que su impacto en la calidad y acceso a la educación universitaria. Metodológicamente, se desarrolló una investigación cuantitativa de tipo descriptiva y transversal. El universo poblacional correspondió a los docentes de las siete licenciaturas que ofrece la universidad intercultural objeto de estudio en sus tres sedes, a partir del cual se determinó una muestra no aleatoria de 32 profesores. La información de campo fue obtenida mediante la aplicación de cuestionarios estructurados en 27 preguntas y 41 ítems. El análisis de confiabilidad de consistencia interna del instrumento arrojó un índice alfa de Cronbach de 0.739 para 68 elementos, lo que indica una alta confiabilidad. Asimismo, para el análisis estadístico de la información captada se utilizó el procesador de datos SPSS versión 20. Se encontró que el cambio de modalidad educativa debido a la pandemia impactó severamente las posibilidades de acceso a una educación de calidad por parte de los estudiantes universitarios, dadas las condiciones de marginación y pobreza, así como el rezago socioeconómico y tecnológico, todo lo cual acentuó la inequidad y desigualdad en materia educativa intercultural.
Sofrimento e salvação em "A morte de José"
Authors: Manzatto Antonio
Published: October 2022

A entrada de José no céu é a cena descrita na canção “A morte de José”, composição de Maria Martha e Isabel Maria G. de A. Ramos, gravada pela própria Maria Martha no álbum Flor amorosa, datado de 1977 com selo RCA Victor. A letra de canções têm sido objeto de diversos estudos na área de teologia e ciências da religião, as de temática explicitamente religiosa ou não. Aqui se tem a narrativa da morte de José, um pobre trabalhador explorado, e sua entrada no céu junto aos santos. A abordagem parte da compreensão popular de salvação, conforme a religiosidade popular tradicional, para introduzir a questão social dos pobres explorados que, na época, começava a aparecer de modo mais importante no cenário teológico e religioso da América Latina. Uma religião que aliena das condições históricas é criticada enquanto se acena com uma outra compreensão possível, aquela do Deus que se compromete com a salvação dos mais frágeis. O enfoque, pois, desloca a percepção religiosa do céu para a terra e, retratando a realidade de duro sofrimento enfrentado pelos mais pobres na sociedade, anuncia a esperança de sua libertação pelo estabelecimento da prática da justiça
Raskolnikóv e Caim
Authors: Martins Lucas Alamino Iglesias , Abdala Barnabé Thiago
Published: October 2022

Na obra, Crime e Castigo, do escritor Fiódor Dostoiévski (1821-1881), narra-se a história do falido estudante de direito Raskólnikov que, perante o espírito niilista de sua época, realiza o duplo homicídio contra a velha usurária e sua irmã. Ao longo da história, grande parte dos estudiosos analisaram a caracterização da personagem, Raskólnikov, sob o âmbito desta ser um reflexo das condições histórico-filosóficas do período em que Dostoiévski compôs a obra. No entanto, pouco estudo se direcionou em compreender a caracterização da personagem em relação ao arquétipo bíblico do assassinato, neste caso, representado por Caim e seu ato fraticida. Nesse viés, o artigo tem como objetivo analisar intertextualmente a caracterização da personagem Raskólnikov à luz da caracterização de Caim no relato bíblico de Gn 4:1-16. O texto bíblico em questão, foi examinado em sua forma sincrônica e posto como modelo mitológico-literário de crime. Tanto Raskólnikov como Caim representam vozes universais da violência. Eles estão em ruptura em relação ao outro, dado que cometem o crime, e por isso são indiferentes e egoístas. Mas ambos descobrem que não há crime sem castigo. Nesse sentido, as personagens são convidadas para o perdão, para a reconciliação e o restabelecimento pleno do diálogo.
Entre a maldade, bondade, ódio e salvação na obra Jane Eyre, de Charlotte Brontë
Authors: Souza César Martins de , Castro Weverton
Published: October 2022

Jane Eyre, publicada originalmente em 1847, é considerada uma das principais obras de literatura inglesa, trazendo as narrativas da protagonista sobre os sofrimentos, violências e perdas que vivenciou até o encontro com a felicidade. Nesta obra, Charlotte, uma das celebradas irmãs Brontë, traz a possibilidade de problematizar sobre amor, bondade, ódio, redenção e sofrimentos, a partir do olhar da narradora-protagonista, que ficou órfã ainda jovem e traz sua fé como um fio condutor fundamental para compreender não apenas o universo narrativo, como também para refletir a respeito destas temáticas se relacionam com concepções práticas dos cristãos. A forma como ela enxerga o mundo e dialoga com as realidades que enfrenta deixa espaço para pensar as dinâmicas e paradoxos entre os discursos relativos a fé cristã e como ela é vivenciada no cotidiano por diferentes grupos e sujeitos. A vida de Jane traz para os leitores o desafio de pensar, a partir de uma obra literária, conceitos que adentram em diversas temporalidades e trazem reflexões que se estendem da literatura para a realidade social.
dar de si em Xavier Zubiri e sua dimensão teológica
Authors: Vieira das Neves Marcos , Dos Santos Costa Valeriano
Published: October 2022

Analisamos o conceito zubiriano “dar de sí” (dar de si) para mostrar que sua expressão verbal “dar”, unida ao de si, tem um peso hermenêutico de grande valor na filosofia de Xavier Zubiri. O objetivo não é esgotar todas as nuanças que o conceito tem na vastíssima gama de textos que compõem as obras do nosso filósofo basco, mas sim de sistematizar alguns matizes que nos ajudariam a compreender o que Zubiri entende por “dar de sí” e como ele aplica esse conceito na sua obra.
diálogo ao encontro
Authors: Ribeiro Claudio de Oliveira , Negro Felipe de Moraes
Published: October 2022

O texto apresenta resultados de pesquisa sobre as possibilidades de aproximação entre a teologia das religiões de Andrés Torres Queiruga e o princípio pluralista. Metodologicamente, a análise e a apresentação dos resultados estão estruturados nos seguintes passos: (i) identificação das referidas aproximações, sobretudo a perspectiva de se superarem modelos tradicionais de avaliação do dado salvífico, como o incluvista e o pluralista, recorrendo às zonas fronteiriças deles; (ii) distinção entre as noções de diálogo, que pode implicar conotação de uma verdade que já se possui plenamente e que vai ser ‘negociada’ com o outro, e a de encontro, que sugere mais intensamente um sair de si, unindo-se ao outro para ir em busca daquilo que está no horizonte de ambos; (iii) explicitação da visão de que é na partilha solidária e respeitosa do Mistério que as religiões contribuirão para a genuína percepção de revelação e o consequente relacionamento sadio entre elas; (iv) descrição das categorias de universalismo assimétrico, teocentrismo jesuânico e inreligionação para a tarefa de interpretação da revelação; e (v) destaque para a noção de que as autênticas identidades são forjadas nos encontros, no respeito e na relação de alteridade entre diferentes, como realça o princípio pluralista.
nova teologia eucarística católica de Zeno Carra como colaboração para o discernimento sobre a intercomunhão do cônjuge protestante
Authors: Zatti Daniel , Hammes Erico João
Published: October 2022

A aproximação ecumênica entre luteranos e católicos-romanos se intensifica na medida em que a teologia sistemática e a teologia pastoral dialogam. O “estado da arte” neste âmbito está na investigação da possibilidade da comunhão eucarística pelo fiél protestante em um matrimônio interconfessional. O presente artigo aborda a temática e apresenta, na crítica do conceito de transubstanciação, utilizado pela teologia católica, uma forma de aproximação da mútua compreensão de Eucaristia por essas duas denominações. A partir do documento gerado pelo Pontifício Conselho para a Promoção da Unidade dos Cristãos (PCPUC) e a Federação Luterana Mundial (FLM), intitulado “Do Conflito à Comunhão”, se analisará historicamente as compreensões católica e luterana sobre a presença eucarística. Serão expostas algumas considerações sobre o subsídio pastoral gerado pelos bispos alemães, chamado de 'ajuda orientadora’ (Handreichung), intitulado Caminhar com Cristo: nas pegadas da unidade, sobre matrimônios interconfessionais e participação comum na Eucaristia. Finalmente abordar o tema a partir do livro Hoc Facite, de Zeno Carra, que apresenta uma crítica à transubstanciação como modelo e apresenta uma proposta original de explicar a presença de Cristo na eucaristia. Esta abordagem pretende aproximar a compreensão luterana e católica da presença real e colaborar para o avanço do diálogo ecumênico.

Além disso, é posto destaque sobre as figuras de dois discípulos, André e Filipe, que interagem com Jesus durante a narrativa. Tendo em vista que a narrativa da Multiplicação dos Pães está presente nos quatro Evangelhos, aqui se deseja evidenciar a importância da Festa da Páscoa e Filipe e André. Por questões metodológicas será trabalhado apenas os primeiros quinze versículos do sexto capítulo, que compõe a primeira parte da narrativa joanina
Figura e carnavalização na proclamação do evangelho
Authors: Leite Francisco Benedito
Published: October 2022

O presente artigo, em primeiro lugar, propõe que a Filosofia das formas simbólicas de Cassirer seja tomada como teoria que oferece plausibilidade ao Discurso Religioso. Em seguida, propõe que os conceitos: “figura”, de Auerbach; e “carnavalização”, de Bakhtin, sejam tomados como conceitos úteis para análise do Evangelho conforme Marcos (4.35-41). A descrição dos referidos conceitos e a análise do texto escolhido expõem o modo como se concebem as categorias tempo e espaço no Discurso Religioso, a qual é aparentada ao mito.
A Tradução de Hapax Legomena Absolutos nos Salmos na Vulgata e sua Relação com o Texto Protomassorético e a Septuaginta
Authors: Francisco Edson de Faria
Published: October 2022

RESUMO: A Bíblia Hebraica possui inúmeras ocorrências de hapax legomena absolutos e que são um autêntico desafio para qualquer tradução bíblica. Geralmente, tal situação é solucionada tendo como referência alguma ou algumas versões já existentes da Bíblia e que servem como apoio para o processo de tradução. Tal circunstância ocorreu na produção da Vulgata, considerada uma das principais versões antigas da Bíblia Hebraica. Este estudo é dedicado a analisar quinze itens lexicais que são hapax legomena absolutos, sendo registrados no texto bíblico hebraico do livro dos Salmos e como Jerônimo de Estridônia os traduziu para a Vulgata, nas versões Psalterium Gallicanum e Psalterium iuxta Hebraeos. Além do mais, este estudo aborda, ainda, como teria sido a relação da Vulgata com o Texto Protomassorético e a Septuaginta na solução de tradução das quinze unidades lexicográficas do texto bíblico hebraico que são selecionadas para este artigo.                   PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Bíblia. Vulgata. Texto Protomassorético. Septuaginta. Tradução. Hapax Legomenon.
Death and Evanescence in the Book of Ecclesiastes. An Interpretation of Eccl 2:13–17 and 3:16–22
Authors: Peetz Melanie
Published: October 2022

The Book of Ecclesiastes talks about human death and evanescence candidly and powerfully—more so than almost any other book in the Bible. Qoheleth (Greek Ecclesiastes), a wisdom teacher and the central character in this book, takes death seriously. For him, it represents the ultimate boundary to human life, although he does not claim that there is nothing after it. Still, for him, death is as unavoidable as it is final. Therefore, he argues to treat life as a one-time opportunity, accept life's goods as a gift from God, and enjoy them.
