Published: October 2016

Background:

The detection of infectious bacteria in blood culture samples is important for diagnosis and treatment, but this requires 1–2 days at least, and is not adequate as a rapid test. Therefore, we have investigated the diagnostic ability and the optimal cutoff value of procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) for predicting the bacteremias using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and relative cumulative frequency distribution (RCD) curves.

Methods:

A case-control study was performed in inpatients (852 subjects: 426 positive cultures and 426 negative cultures) from January 1 to December 31, 2014. We retrospectively investigated their blood culture and blood chemistry findings recorded in this period using electronic medical records.

Results:

Area under the ROC curve of PCT and CRP were 0.79 and 0.66, respectively. The optimal cutoff values were 0.5 μg/L with a sensitivity of 70% and specificity of 70% for PCT and 50.0 mg/L with a sensitivity of 63% and specificity of 65% for CRP. When the optimal cutoff value was treated as a reference, the odds ratio (OR) was 71.11 and the hazard ratio (HR) was 6.27 for PCT >2.0 μg/L, and the risk of blood culture positivity was markedly elevated. PCT levels were significantly higher in the population with Gram-negative rod (GNR) infections than in the population with Gram-positive coccal (GPC) infections.

Conclusions:

The elevation of CRP and PCT were significantly associated with bacteremias. PCT was superior to CRP as a diagnostic indicator for predicting bacteremias, for discriminating bacterial from nonbacterial infections, and for determining bacterial species.
Turning back to experience in Cognitive Linguistics via phenomenology
Authors: Zlatev Jordan
Published: October 2016

Cognitive Linguistics began as an apotheosis of lived experience, but has over the years diversified into many different stands, interpreting the notion of “experience” and along with it the notion of “cognition” in conflicting ways: individual or social, prelinguistic or linguistic, unconscious or conscious? These issues are not only philosophical as they hold crucial implications for methodology. Here, I propose that most of them can be resolved with the help ofphenomenology, “the study of human experience and of the ways things present themselves to us in and through such experience” (Sokolowski 2000.Introduction to phenomenology. New York: Cambridge University Press, 2). Cogent syntheses are proposed to the individual/social and prelinguistic/linguistic debates, showing that scholars like Langacker, Talmy and Itkonen have focused on complementary aspects of implicitly phenomenological investigations. Third-person, “objective” methods are necessary for extending the scope of such investigations, but epistemologically secondary. Thus, the focus of Cognitive Linguistics can be brought back to experience, albeit in a more mature manner than 30 years ago.
“Cognitive Linguistics: Looking back, looking forward”
Authors: Divjak Dagmar , Levshina Natalia , Klavan Jane
Published: October 2016

Since its conception, Cognitive Linguistics as a theory of language has been enjoying ever increasing success worldwide. With quantitative growth has come qualitative diversification, and within a now heterogeneous field, different – and at times opposing – views on theoretical and methodological matters have emerged. The historical “prototype” of Cognitive Linguistics may be described as predominantly of mentalist persuasion, based on introspection, specialized in analysing language from a synchronic point of view, focused on West-European data (English in particular), and showing limited interest in the social and multimodal aspects of communication. Over the past years, many promising extensions from this prototype have emerged. The contributions selected for the Special Issue take stock of these extensions along the cognitive, social and methodological axes that expand the cognitive linguistic object of inquiry across time, space and modality.
Cross-domain based Event Recommendation
using Tensor Factorization
Authors: Arora Anuja , Taneja Vaibhav , Parashar Sonali , Mishra Apurva
Published: October 2016

Context in the form of meta-data has been accredited
as an important component in cross-domain collaborative
filtering (CDCF). In this research paper CDCF
concept is used to exploit event information (context)
from two UI matrices to allow the recommendation performance
of one domain (Facebook- User-Event Matrix)
to benefit from the information from another domain
(Bookmyshow- Event-Tag Matrix). The model based collaborative
filtering approach Tensor Factorization(TF) has
been used to integrate Facebook provided User-Event context
information with Bookmyshow Event-Tag context information
to recommend events. In contrast to the standard
collaborative tag recommendation, our CDCF approach
uses one User-Event matrix of Facebook that takes
another Bookmyshow Event-Tag matrix as additional informant.
The proposed cross-domain based Event Recommendation
approach is divided into three modules- i) data
collection which extracts the unstructured dataset from
the two domains Bookmyshow and social networking site
Facebook using API’s; ii) data mapping module which is
basically used to integrate the common knowledge/ data
that can be shared between considered different domains
(Facebook & Bookmyshow). This module integrates and
reduces the data into structured events’ instances. As the
dataset was collected from two different sites, an intersection
of both was taken out. Therefore this module is carefully
designed according to reliability of information that
is common between two domains; iii) 3 order tensor factorization
and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) used for
most preferable recommendation by less pertinent result reduction. The proposed 3 order tensor factorization is designed
for maximizing the mutual benefit from both the
considered domains (organizer and user). Therefore providing
three recommendations: For organizers: 1) system
recommends places to conduct specific event according to
maximum of attendees of a particular type of event at a
specific location; 2) recommending target audience to organizer:
those who are interested to attend event on the
basis of past data for promotion purposes. For users: 3) recommending
events to users of their interest on the basis of
past record. Our result shows significant improvement in
reduction of less relevant data and result effectiveness is
measured through recall and precision. Reduction of less
relevant recommendation is 64%, 72% and 63% for place
recommendation to organizer, target audience recommendation
to organizer and event recommendation to user
respectively. The proposed tensor factorization approach
achieved 68% precision, 15.5% recall in recommending attendees
to organizer and 62% precision, 13.4% recall for
event recommendation to user.
A note on the relationship between Scandinavian and Low German
Authors: Berg Ivar
Published: October 2016

Recent work on language contact between Scandinavian and Low German during the Middle Ages widely assumes that the varieties were linguistically close enough to permit some kind of receptive multilingualism, and hence an example of dialect contact. Two arguments that have been invoked in support of this scenario are the lack of (1) meta-linguistic comments on flawed understanding, and (2) attested bilingualism. However, towards the end of the most intense contact period, in the early sixteenth century, there is indeed meta-linguistic information in the preserved sources suggesting that intelligibility was restricted. Furthermore, there are also examples of code-switching and active bilingualism indicating that the varieties were clearly perceived as distinct languages. This paper presents such examples from Norwegian primary sources that have not been observed in recent scholarship. Based on this evidence, it is argued that the relationship between the languages by the early sixteenth century was asymmetric, Scandinavians being able to understand Low German more often than vice versa.
Trilingualism in early modern Norwich
Authors: Joby Christopher
Published: October 2016

The aim of this article is to illustrate the importance of employing archival sources in order to identify when and to what extent a language was used during a particular period in history. It takes as an example Trudgill’s claim that from about 1565, as a result of immigration by Dutch and French speakers from the Low Countries, Norwich was a trilingual city for as much as two hundred years. After a brief description of multilingualism in early modern England and an analysis of the term trilingual, it discusses how Trudgill uses secondary sources to substantiate his claim. The article then challenges this claim, by employing archival material in order to assess how long after 1565 Dutch and French continued to be used in Norwich in the most important social domains: the church, the home, education, the work domain, the law and literature. What emerges is that although certain functions within the church domain continued to be performed in these languages into the eighteenth century, as a result of language shift and attrition, Norwich ceased to be trilingual in any meaningful sense by the middle of the seventeenth century.
Evidentiality in Early Modern English Medical Treatises (1500–1700)
Authors: Whitt Richard Jason
Published: October 2016

This study investigates diachronic trends in the use of evidential markers in Early Modern English medical treatises (1500–1700), with data drawn from theCorpus of Early Modern English Medical Texts. The state of medical thought and practice in Early Modern England is discussed, with particular focus on the changing role that Scholasticism played during this period. The nature of evidentiality and types of scholastic vs. non-scholastic evidence are given attention, and quantitative results are outlined. It is shown that as scholastic models of medicine gave way to more empirically-driven approaches, the use of evidential markers indicating direct perceptual and inferential evidence increased drastically, while the use of markers signaling reported information – particularly information mediated by classical authorities – decreased significantly. The results are finally discussed in light of discursive and typological considerations relating to contextual changes accompanying the reference to classical authors as sources of evidence, as well as the notion of “marked” and “unmarked” evidence types.
Intelligent Tutoring Systems
Authors: Bradáč Vladimír , Kostolányová Kateřina
Published: October 2016

The importance of intelligent tutoring systems has rapidly increased in past decades. There has been an exponential growth in the number of ends users that can be addressed as well as in technological development of the environments, which makes it more sophisticated and easily implementable. In the introduction, the paper offers a brief overview of intelligent tutoring systems. It then focuses on two types that have been designed for education of students in the tertiary sector. The systems use elements of adaptivity in order to accommodate as many users as possible. They serve both as a support of presence lessons and, primarily, as the main educational environment for students in the distance form of studies – e-learning. The systems are described from the point of view of their functionalities and typical features that show their differences. The authors conclude with an attempt to choose the best features of each system, which would lead to creation of an even more sophisticated intelligent tutoring system for e-learning.

An elementary proof that the equation x2n + y2n = z2n can not have any non-zero positive integer solutions when n is an integer ≥ 2 is presented. To prove that the equation has no integer solutions it is first hypothesized that the equation has integer solutions. The absence of any integer solutions of the equation is justified by contradicting the hypothesis.
Situated LSP Translation from a Cognitive Translational Perspective
Authors: Krüger Ralph
Published: October 2016

This paper takes a cognitive translational perspective on the field of specialised translation. In a first step, it surveys the three cognitive scientific paradigms of symbol manipulation, connectionism and situated cognition and discusses the influence of these three paradigms on the development of cognitive translation studies. The currently dominating cognitive scientific paradigm of situated cognition and the corresponding translation theory of situated translation (Risku 2004) then serve as a basis for developing the Cologne Model of the Situated LSP Translator, which attempts to give a comprehensive account of the relevant factors influencing the LSP translator’s cognitive performance in real-world translation settings. While discussing the structure and components of the model, I will illustrate potential areas of application and possible research perspectives than can be derived from it.
Funktionaler Vergleich der Höflichkeit im Deutschen und Koreanischen
Authors: Kab-Nyun Kim
Published: October 2016

Politeness exists in all society and in many diverse ways. This is because it is based on the common value system. Politeness helps to secure social coexistence of individuals as well as helps to achieve goals of the society that individuals belongs to, which is to form a society with less conflictive coexistence. Politeness has a special meaning because it is on the cross walk of culture, social, cognition, and language, in relation to communicative competence. A range of studies regarding politeness have already been conducted. However, past research about politeness was on the premises in which it hypotheses that politeness applies to all cultures the same, but it overlooks the cultural differences of all cultures in different societies. It is necessary to conduct this new research because previous studies such as Lakoff, Leech, and Brown/Levionson have focused on universal politeness.
A Detectorist’s Utopia? Archaeology and Metal-Detecting in England and Wales
Authors: Lewis Michael
Published: October 2016

Archaeologists in England and Wales have a long tradition of liaising with metal-detectorists,
particularly following the reform of Treasure law and advent of the Portable Antiquities Scheme - a project to
record archaeological finds discovered by the public. Although this process of dialogue has been seen by most
as productive and mutually beneficial, there still remain issues that divide archaeologists and detectorists.
This paper will highlight some of these with a view to possible solutions.

Race and Responses to Violence in Prayer
Shawl Ministries
Authors: Bowman Donna
Published: October 2016

Prayer shawl ministries, overwhelmingly led and staffed by women, aim to give comfort to the
bereaved. Shawl makers often want to respond to communal tragedy and grief such as mass shootings.
This case study uses qualitative interviews with shawl makers from white and African-American ministry
groups, placing their statements in the context of benevolent handwork, disaster response, and the culture
of mass shootings. The ordinary theology of shawl makers is forged in a “chronic mode,” responding to
individual instances of grief in the ministry’s neighborhood. “Crisis mode” operations, where shawls
are part of multifaceted mobilization efforts to bring relief to a large number of victims, may clarify, test,
extend, or alter these meanings. White shawl makers were appalled at the suffering inflicted by the Sandy
Hook school shooting and took pride in their ability to make a difference, while black shawl makers were
guided by concerns about discipline, process, and preservation of community. These results suggest that
perceptions of normalcy influence the response of caretaking ministries to violence and trauma, revealing
a distinction between restorative efforts and the development of resilience.

Published: October 2016

Graphene oxide-polyvinyl chloride composite was prepared using tetrahydrofuran solvent-assisted dispersion of characterized nano flakes of graphene oxide in polymer matrix. Electrical percolation threshold of GO/PVC nanocomposite was determined via a finite element simulation method with a 2D model and compared with experimental results. A conductive cell with two silver coated walls was designed and fabricated for exploring dosimetric properties of the composite. Some characteristics of the new nanocomposite such as linearity of dose response, repeatability, sensitivity and angular dependence are investigated. According to 2D proposed method, obtained data associated to electrical conductivity of the GO/polymer composite for PVC matrix plotted in different GO weight percentages and had good compatibility (validity) with experimental data. The dose response is linear in the 17–51 mGy dose range and it can be introduced for gamma radiation dosimetry in diagnostic activities.

Molecular modulations and influence of acclimation of Ni on acute Ni toxicity in Plectonema boryanum
Authors: Farooqui Alvina , Mahfooz Sadaf , Shamim Adeeba , Siddiqui Haris Mohd. , Kumar Kesari Kavindra
Published: October 2016

Objective

In this study, metal induced accumulation of antioxidants, proline and phenol were proposed during acclimation, to provide defense, protection and resistance against oxidative stress on Ni acclimated cyanobacterium.

Methods

Plectonema boryanum was used as a test organism in the present study and the experiments were performed in two sets (1) cells differentially exposed to Ni (2) cells acclimated with Ni and then further exposed to Ni in the plant tissue culture laboratory.

Results

Dose-dependent formation of peroxide in Ni-treated cells increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and also enhanced accumulations of non-enzymatic antioxidants such as proline and total phenols at low concentrations of Ni. Down regulation of most of the polypeptides at 20 μM of Ni demonstrated the severe toxicity of the metal while a slight up-regulation of peptide depicted its role in metal tolerance. Ni acclimated cells also showed reduction in peroxide and an increase in proline and total phenol after exposure to 4 μM of Ni.

Conclusion

Our results for the first time demonstrated that accumulation of phenol and proline during the acclimation process could provide tolerance to the cyanobacterium from deleterious effects of the metal stress if it is further exposed to the same metal.
Für immer beerdigt und ewig blamiert
Authors: Duckheim Simon , Braunstein Dirk
Published: October 2016

Der Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit sogenannter „psychopathologischer Kunst“, im Besonderen mit einigen künstlerischen Arbeiten zweier langjähriger Patienten psychiatrischer Anstalten: Gustav Sievers’ und Erich Spießbachs. Sievers, der 1941 den „Euthanasie-Aktionen“ der Nazis zum Opfer fiel, verbrachte beinahe 40 Jahre in „Irrenanstalten“; Spießbach, der 1956 bei einem Fluchtversuch aus seiner Anstalt starb, fast 14. Der Beitrag wendet sich gegen die Vorstellung, aus den Werken ließen sich Rückschlüsse auf die psychische Verfassung oder gar das „innere Wesen“ ihrer Schöpfer ziehen. Wenn sich nach Adorno Kunst im Sinne einer materialistischen Ästhetik im Verhältnis zu dem ihr Auswendigen bestimmt, sind die genannten Werke dahingehend zu untersuchen, inwiefern sich in ihnen die individuellen Erfahrungen der Künstler ausdrücken, die sich im Falle psychiatrischer Anstaltspatienten aus einem besonderen Verhältnis von Individuum und Gesellschaft ergeben. Der Wahrheitsgehalt der Werke wird in ihrer negativen Reflexion des gesellschaftlichen Zustands aufgesucht, wie sie sich insbesondere in den inhaltlichen Motiven darstellt.
Fragment einer materialistischen Ästhetik
Authors: Ette Wolfram
Published: October 2016

Das Essay ist in zwei Teile gegliedert: Der erste fragt allgemein nach den Bedingungen und Möglichkeiten einer materialistischen Ästhetik, der zweite bezieht diese auf die zeitgenössische Lyrik und das Gedicht „Einen jener klassischen“ von Rolf Dieter Brinkmann. Materialistische Ästhetik wird in Abgrenzung zu einer idealistischen und einer formalistischen Ästhetik definiert. Sie ist eine unabschließbare, am besonderen künstlerischen Gegenstand orientierte Hermeneutik, die auf der Dialektik von Allgemeinem und Besonderen beruht. Dabei versucht sie, unter der Prämisse ihrer eigenen Historizität, Formen als mimetisch vermittelte Erfahrungen zu lesen. Der Lyrik kommt dabei eine besondere Rolle zu, weil in ihr das Besondere, ja Fragmentarische Vorrang vor dem Zusammenhängenden und Allgemeinen hat. So kann sie beispielsweise, wie das Gedicht Rolf Dieter Brinkmanns zeigt, den ephemeren Augenblick des Glücks mimetisch abbilden.
Suffering – a premise for the social and political thought
Authors: Bustan Smadar
Published: October 2016

This essay proposes a critical investigation of the notion of suffering as a premise and warning for the Social and Political domains. Drawing from the writings of the contemporary French philosophers Levinas, Marion, Ricœur and Blanchot, comprising a corpus I refer to as “The Ethics of Suffering”, it treats this issue in four stages of analysis: terminological, phenomenological, ethical and political. The phenomenological analysis first reveals the tension resulting from the double nature of “Suffering”, defined both as a feeling and a long lasting condition with its six fundamental components. This duality leads then to question our social ability to simply apply suffering based on the fact that it is widespread and known to all, showing that the lack of a permanent substance or single essence causes its political prevention or propagation to remain totally arbitrary. On this account, the positive outcome of the ethical and phenomenological investigations consists in offering a standard ground for bridging between individual and social suffering while sustaining the tension coming from its dual nature. At the same time, their definition of suffering as a basis for solidarity (
Striatal Activity and Reward Relativity: Neural Signals Encoding Dynamic Outcome Valuation
Authors: Webber Emily S. , Mankin David E. , Cromwell Howard C.
Published: October 2016

The striatum is a key brain region involved in reward processing. Striatal activity has been linked to encoding reward magnitude and integrating diverse reward outcome information. Recent work has supported the involvement of striatum in the valuation of outcomes. The present work extends this idea by examining striatal activity during dynamic shifts in value that include different levels and directions of magnitude disparity. A novel task was used to produce diverse relative reward effects on a chain of instrumental action. Rats (Rattus norvegicus) were trained to respond to cues associated with specific outcomes varying by food pellet magnitude. Animals were exposed to single-outcome sessions followed by mixed-outcome sessions, and neural activity was compared among identical outcome trials from the different behavioral contexts. Results recording striatal activity show that neural responses to different task elements reflect incentive contrast as well as other relative effects that involve generalization between outcomes or possible influences of outcome variety. The activity that was most prevalent was linked to food consumption and post-food consumption periods. Relative encoding was sensitive to magnitude disparity. A within-session analysis showed strong contrast effects that were dependent upon the outcome received in the immediately preceding trial. Significantly higher numbers of responses were found in ventral striatum linked to relative outcome effects. Our results support the idea that relative value can incorporate diverse relationships, including comparisons from specific individual outcomes to general behavioral contexts. The striatum contains these diverse relative processes, possibly enabling both a higher information yield concerning value shifts and a greater behavioral flexibility.

Percepção do tempo: da psicologia para a psicolinguística
Authors: Sampaio Thiago Oliveira da Motta
Published: October 2016

As pesquisas sobre a percepção do tempo surgiram na psicologia com o objetivo de compreender os mecanismos envolvidos na cronobiologia, na estimação do tempo subjetivo e na coordenação temporal de algumas respostas motoras. Os avanços alcançados nesta disciplina resultaram em um modelo de processamento de informação que visa explicar nossa estimação do tempo subjetivo. Os estudos da linguagem lidam frequentemente com fenômenos de ordem temporal, como a coerção aspectual. A coerção ocorre quando um verbo pontual é inserido em contextos durativos, forçando uma leitura iterativa do evento [a criança espirrou o tempo todo]. Apenas recentemente, porém, o conhecimento sobre a percepção do tempo alcançaria a linguística, expandindo as previsões do fenômeno da coerção aspectual.

Two years later: preservice teachers' experiences of learning to use participatory visual methods to address the South African AIDS epidemic
Authors: MacEntee Katie
Published: October 2016

South Africa continues to struggle with the world's highest HIV rates, and the country's young people are amongst those most severely affected by this epidemic. The education sector, and especially teachers, are situated to be leaders in the national response and can provide emotional support as well as information on gender, sexuality, and HIV and AIDS. This article explores preservice teachers' experiences two years after participating in the Youth as Knowledge Producers (YAKP) research intervention, which provided them with training and practical experience in participatory visual methods for HIV and AIDS education. The article discusses participants' reflections on the methods, the continued influences of YAKP on how they think and approach teaching, and the barriers they experienced in securing further learning in this area. The research concludes that preservice teachers can benefit from short-term training in participatory visual methods for HIV and AIDS education by being exposed to a new pedagogical approach, and suggests further development in the integrated responses of higher education institutions in relation to the preservice teachers' HIV and AIDS education.
Three lessons from the Mapungubwe shells
Authors: Bradley R , Gohnert M
Published: October 2016

Shell structures show several unique structural attributes, which promote their use when material and economic efficiency is required. The principal advantage of shells is that forces are largely transferred through in-plane action (i.e. axial forces), with only limited bending and shear forces. This has endorsed the use of unreinforced shells which can been designed through numerous methodologies - i.e. thrust line analysis (O'Dwyer 1999), shell theory (Farshad 1977), finite element analysis (Ramm & Mehlhorn 1991) and numerous physical modelling techniques - to ensure that only compressive stresses exist in the structure. Of specific discussion in this paper are the shells of the Mapungubwe Interpretation Centre, which are built exclusively from unreinforced earth tiles. Because the shells are unreinforced and earth tiles are susceptible to tension cracking, the shape of the structure and the construction practice are of paramount importance. Unfortunately, the Mapungubwe shells have cracked extensively, most notably at the openings. The causes of this cracking have been postulated in order to propose principles of good practice in designing and constructing unreinforced masonry shells. These guidelines were identified as follows: lips and eyebrows at shell openings should be avoided, shells should be unrestrained against expansion and contraction, and openings at the base should be of a catenary shape to match the flow path of compressive stress.
Differences of the brain activity in individual, competitive and cooperative behavior between subjects with analytic and holistic cognitive styles

Published: October 2016

To investigate specific features of systemic organization of behavior in individuals with analytic and holistic cognitive styles we presented a simple decision-making task to pairs of subjects who performed the same task in several modes of social interaction (independent, competition, and cooperation). We assumed that the modes of social interaction would reveal differences in the behavioral and EEG characteristics, related to the cognitive styles. The behavior timing and brain potentials were recorded in 78 participants. The response latencies and parameters of P300 in this task were found to be more variable in the group of participants with holistic thinking compared to analytic. The interaction mode-related differences were also more evident in the group of holistic thinkers. These results are discussed within the system-evolutionary view of brain bases of behavior.

Study sample consisted of 23 subjects: the control group (n = 14), mean age 26,5 ± 5,4 years, and the experimental group (n = 9) – patients with anxiety disorders, mean age 31 ± 3.64 years. Eye movements were recorded using eyrtracker RED-m (SMI). Subjects were sequentially exposed to 18 pictures from the FACS database: emotions related (anger, fear, disgust) and unrelated (surprise, joy, sadness) to threat. Deficit in the recognition of facial expressions was found in pathological anxiety group. Recognition accuracy of “fear” emotion in the experimental group was significantly higher than in the control group (p <0,01). Eyetracking results suggest that pathological anxiety affects the recognition of facial expressions, so that highly informative lower face less attention than normal, as the eye area and nose are observed longer compared with healthy subjects.

Territorio de post-catástrofe, otredad y retórica en la obra “Esperando a Godot”. Aportes para la comprensión de la dramaturgia de Samuel Beckett desde una Sociología de la postmodernidad
Authors: Del Acebo Ibáñez Enrique
Published: October 2016

A partir de un análisis de las distintas dimensiones del mundo sociocultural, y su entrecruce con el mundo del sujeto, se consideran las variables territorio y tiempo, con particular referencia a la postmodernidad. Escenario histórico-sociocultural y escenario teatral, mostrados en sus convergencias en términos de la dramaturgia de Samuel Becket, con particular referencia a “Esperando a Godot”. La dramaturgia de Beckett manifiesta la inutilidad de insistir en las relaciones interpersonales mostrándose al mismo tiempo un mundo marginal de derrotados, nihilistas gente perpleja frente a la confusión entre de realidad e irrealidad, sentido y sinsentido. Por algunos considerado el “último moderno”, sobre todo en términos de su estética de la incertidumbre, su dramaturgia se emparenta con un escepticismo teológico cercano al Dasein heideggeriano. Se analiza la importancia y diversidad de territorios, tanto en sentido real como sobre todo simbólico: mares, montañas y desiertos, con particular referencia a la estética de Simmel, la poética de Bachelard y las interpretaciones de sentido en la postmodernidad como es el caso de Sloterdijk, Deleuze y Guattari, entre otros. Vida y muerte, la memoria y sus falencias, espera sin fin, caos, escenarios de postcatástrofe, son componentes todos del ámbito existencial y desértico donde se debaten los protagonistas beckettianos.

UM OLHAR REFLEXIVO: NAS CONCEPÇÕES ARTÍSTICAS
Authors: Souza Alberto Carlos de
Published: October 2016

Este estudo buscou re-visitar as duas concepções de Arte, como linguagem ? pedagógica e reflexiva -, forjadas ao longo da História e sua relação com o pensamento estético brasileiro de resistência. A partir da década de 60, tal pensamento atribuiu uma finalidade pedagógica à Arte, incumbindo-lhe a tarefa crítica social e política de engajamento emancipatório humano, analisando a relação entre arte e o público na sociedade contemporânea: assumindo que a obra de arte tinha uma aura que ao longo dos tempos foi perdida em função de uma reprodutibilidade técnica. Na modernidade reflexiva em que vivemos o homem ? diferente da concepção iluminista ou sociológica -, é um sujeito descentrado e que vive em crise de identidade, visto que as velhas identidades estão continuamente sendo substituídas por novas identidades. Assim posto, entendemos ser função da escola criar junto ao alunado um espaço de valorização de seu patrimônio cultural e para tal, consideramos a teoria dos lugares de memória- que são entendidos como símbolos, festas, emblemas, monumentos, comemorações, elogios, dicionários e museus são lugares de memória cada vez mais ameaçada de desaparecer -, ainda permanece encarnada, graças à vontade dos homens e apesar da passagem do tempo. Destacou-se neste cenário o teatro do oprimido, a poesia de Ferreira Gullar, o Cinema Novo e música de protesto de Chico Buarque, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil e Milton Nascimento, dentre muitos outros.

A Roça Asurini e o Fogo Bonito de Aí
Authors: Caromano Caroline , Cascon Leandro Matthews , Murrieta Rui Sérgio Sereni
Published: October 2016

Resumo: a queima é uma prática comum nos sistemas tradicionais de agricultura, como de populações indígenas Asurini do Rio Xingu, no leste da Amazônia. As queimadas das roças envolvem não somente o controle da secagem das madeiras derrubadas e conhecimento do regime das chuvas, da temperatura do ambiente e da direção e velocidade dos ventos, mas também negociações com o sobrenatural. Neste trabalho, estamos especialmente interessados no aspecto ritual do fogo durante a abertura e limpeza das roças Asurini, demonstrando através de observações obtidas em campo como o fogo toma dimensões simbólicas nesta prática. Palavras-chave: Asurini do Xingu. Fogo. Roça.
Rituais: afetos, sentidos e memórias. Uma proposta.
Authors: Pellini José Roberto
Published: October 2016

Resumo: o cheiro adocicado do incenso, a luz trêmula das velas, o movimento ritmado das pessoas, a frieza angustiante do mármore, tudo impressionava meus sentidos. Nós, como seres corporificados, formamos e resgatamos memórias a partir dos encontros que temos com a materialidade do mundo. A maneira como a materialidade do mundo nos impressiona através dos sentidos determina a força e a qualidade dos processos de lembrar e esquecer. Ritual neste contexto opera dentro de uma relação corporal onde a estimulação ou o controle sensorial criam e sedimentam memórias. Palavras-chave: Ritual. Sentidos. Afetos. Memória.

Tudo Junto e Misturado, Separado pela Crença e Compactado pelo Tempo
Authors: Gapar Madu
Published: October 2016

Resumo: estudos em sambaquis, por muito tempo, privilegiaram abordagens sobre atividades rotineiras, apoiados na presença de material faunístico. Recentemente, foi demonstrado que muitos sambaquis são cemitérios, portanto, locais de cerimônias fúnebres. Este artigo, com apoio nas reflexões clássicas de Van Gennep sobre os ritos de passagem e de Marcel Mauss sobre a expressão obrigatória dos sentimentos, discute como evidências de atividades rotineiras e rituais integram a vida em sociedade e propõe que esses domínios são imbricados e associados às práticas dos grupos sociais. Palavras-chave: Ritual. Atividades Rotineiras. Sambaqui.
Comparing Perspectives
Authors: Vais Dana
Published: October 2016

The review compares two recent books: Holidays after the Fall. Seaside Architecture and Urbanism in Bulgaria and Croatia (edited by Elke Beyer, Anke Hagemann and Michael Zinganel, Berlin, 2013) and Enchanting Views. Romanian Black Sea Tourism Planning and Architecture of the 1960s and 1970s (edited by Kalliopi Dimou, Sorin Istudor and Alina Serban, Bucharest, 2015). They are the first comprehensive publications that focus on seaside tourism architecture and urbanism in the former communist world, in the three countries where these have been most substantially developed at the time. The two books are also part of a tendency in recent literature on the communist period, to see the brighter side of a built environment that is still generally considered to be grey and dull. The review compares the two editorial strategies and stresses their differences: Holidays after the Fall addresses both the communist and the post-communist periods, including the ‘architectural monstrosities’ of the recent liberal developments; Enchanting Views focuses strictly on the 1960s and the 1970s, with their unspoiled image of a clean and pure modernist seaside environment. Holidays after the Fall focuses more on researching and revealing objects of architecture and urbanism, while Enchanting Views looks to display as many different disciplinary perspectives and interpretations as possible.

The review highlights their similarities too: both books develop comparative approaches, showing that modernist seaside developments in the communist Europe were closely similar to their Western counterparts and that seaside resorts have played a major role as instruments of lifestyle change and modernization.
