A Multi-Resolution Approach for Audio Classification
Authors: Voronin Sergey , Grushin Alexander
Published: July 2018

We describe a multi-resolution approach for audio classification and illustrate its application to the open data set for environmental sound classification. The proposed approach utilizes a multi-resolution based ensemble consisting of targeted feature extraction of approximation (coarse scale) and detail (fine scale) portions of the signal under the action of multiple transforms. This is paired with an automatic machine learning engine for algorithm and parameter selection and the LSTM algorithm, capable of mapping several sequences of features to a predicted class membership probability distribution. Initial results show an improvement in multi-class classification accuracy.

Published: July 2018

Suicide and self-harm are very common among adolescents, especially females in western and Asian countries. The Psychosocial predictors, along with hopelessness and non-suicidal harm, have not been studied properly before. Therefore, there is a need to address these issues. The objective of the study was to ascertain the psychosocial and clinical features predicting suicide attempts and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) in adolescents with major depression in Pakistan. The Methodology comprised of Adolescent patients (n = 121) with major depressive disorder who were hospitalized in the LRH (Lady Reading Hospital), Peshawar. The patient’s clinical symptoms, family role (family responsibilities), quality of life, physical health and relationship with friends and family members were evaluated. Participants’ suicidal thoughts and behaviors and NSSI (self-inflicted, deliberate self-harm with no intent of suicide) were analyzed and assessed during hospitalization and followed up for 28 weeks. Poor family functions, as well as family problems and social problems, were the causative agents for adolescent’s high suicidality and non-suicidal self-harm. A history of Non-suicidal self-harm treatment is a clinical marker for suicidality. The previous suicidal attempts should be evaluated in depressed juvenile patients as indicators of future suicidal intent and behavior. Both suicidal and NSSI during the therapy and after treatment persisted in depressed adolescents who participated in the study. Major causes of suicide among our study participants were lost friend(s), drug abuse, living alone or not living with the family, disturbed parental marriage, sexual abuse, and other domestic problems.

Authors: Md Roduan Mohd Rohaizad , Mohtarrudin Norhafizah , Abd Hamid Roslida
Published: July 2018

Annonacin, an annonaceous acetogenin isolated from Annona muricata has been reported to be strongly cytotoxic against various cell lines, in vitro. Nevertheless, its effect against in vivo tumor promoting activity has not been reported yet. Therefore, this study was aimed to investigate antitumor-promoting activity of annonacin via in vivo two-stage mouse skin tumorigenesis model and its molecular pathways involved. Annonacin 85 nM was topically applied to DMBA/TPA-induced ICR mice for 22 weeks of treatment. Histopathological examination of skin, liver and kidney as well as genes and proteins expression analysis were conducted. Annonacin significantly increased the tumor latency period and also reduced the tumor incidence, tumor burden and tumor volume, respectively. In addition, it also suppressed tumorigenesis manifested by significant reduction of hyperkeratosis, dermal papillae and number of keratin pearls on skin tissues. Annonacin also appeared to be non-toxic to liver and kidney. Significant modulation of both AKT, ERK, MTOR, p38, PTEN and Src genes and proteins were also observed in annonacin-targeted signaling pathway(s) against tumorigenesis. Collectively, results of this study indicate that annonacin is a potential therapeutic compound targeting tumor promoting stage in skin tumorigenesis by modulating multiple gene and protein in cancer signaling pathways without apparent toxicity.
Numerical Simulation and FRAP Experiments Show that the Plasma Membrane Binding Protein PH-EFA6 does not Exhibit Anomalous Sub-Diffusion in Cells.
Authors: Favard Cyril
Published: July 2018

FRAP technique have been used for decades to measure movements of molecules in 2D. Data obtained by FRAP experiments in cell plasma membranes are assumed to be described through means of two parameters, a diffusion coefficient D (as defined in a pure Brownian model) and a mobile fraction M. Nevertheless, it has also been shown that recoveries can be nicely fit using anomalous sub-diffusion. FRAP at variable radii has been developed using the Brownian diffusion model to access geometrical characteristics of the surrounding landscape of the molecule. Here we performed numerical simulations of continuous time random walk (CTRW) anomalous subdiffusion and interpreted them in the context of variable radii FRAP. These simulations were compared to experimental data obtained at variable radii on living cells using the PH domain of the membrane binding protein EFA6 (exchange factor for ARF6, a small G protein). This protein domain is an excellent candidate to explore the structure of the interface between cytosol and plasma membrane in cells. By direct comparison of our numerical simulations to the experiments, we show that this protein does not exhibit anomalous diffusion in BHK cells. The non Brownian PH-EFA6 dynamics observed here is more related to spatial heterogeneities such as cytoskeleton fences effects.
Art Objects and the Experience of Art-Making
Authors: Gorichanaz Tim
Published: July 2018

In considering the question of machine as artist, the art object can be analytically separated from its making, and its making can be dualistically conceptualized as process on one hand and experience on the other. One of the reasons we value art is that there was an experience of its making. To better understand what is meant by the experience of art-making, this paper presents results from a qualitative, phenomenological study of a group of artists. These results appear in three groups: feeling, intention and lifeworld. Machines cannot experience art-making, at least not in the same way as humans, and thus they cannot create art but only art-like objects. Even so, in the present century, we should not be asking whether machines can be artists, but rather how machines can help more people experience art-making for themselves.
Does stock ownership impact liquidity and dividends?
Authors: El-Nader Ghaith
Published: July 2018

This study investigates the interactions among stock ownership, liquidity and dividends in the UK stock market over the period 2002–2016. Using different liquidity measures, it is shown that stocks with higher levels of free float (institutional ownership) are associated with higher (lower) levels of liquidity. In addition, a positive and significant relation is found between institutional ownership and dividend payout policy, which, as a result, highlights the comparative tax advantages that UK institutions have for dividend income. These relations hold even after controlling for firm-specific characteristics. Finally, a negative relation is found between dividends and liquidity, implying that investors with less (more) liquid stocks are more (less) likely to receive dividend payments.

Authors: Hallack Daniel Metanias Carvalho , Cavalcante Filho José Sérgio de Araújo , Couto Paulo
Published: July 2018

Apresenta-se, neste artigo, um estudo sobre a dinâmica do escoamento de fluidos em meios altamente porosos e com baixos números de Reynolds. A validade da equação de Darcy é questionável para estes meios, enquanto a equação de Brinkman, ainda pouco utilizada para escoamento de hidrocarbonetos, é proposta como uma alternativa.Neste trabalho se desenvolve um simulador de fluxo numérico capaz de representar o escoamento monofásico e bifásico (água - óleo) seguindo os dois equacionamentos distintamente. Para uma variedade de casos representativos os resultados destes equacionamentos são comparados. A aplicação deste estudo é para reservatórios de petróleo carstificados.Observa-se pequena ou nenhuma influência do termo viscoso de Brinkman em meios porosos convencionais, até que altíssimas permeabilidades sejam atribuídas ao meio de alta porosidade quando pode-se notar diferenças significativas nas velocidades do escoamento, no avanço da frente de água e nos fatores de recuperação.

Published: July 2018

A importância do coalbed methane tem crescido ao longo do tempo e já representa atualmente 8 porcento da produção de gás anual nos EUA. Entretanto, a produção desse tipo de gás traz consigo vários desafios e diversos fatores podem afetar a produtividade de um reservatório de CBM. Operações de perfuração e completação podem ocasionar na redução da permeabilidade ao redor do poço. Um fator que determina a magnitude do dano ou estímulo da formação é o fator de película (skin factor) e a região onde a permeabilidade foi alterada no poço é chamada de zona de película. Esta zona de película pode ser obtida a partir de análises de teste de pressão em poços de petróleo. O presente trabalho possui como objetivo estimar a permeabilidade e o fator de película num poço produtor de gás do tipo coalbed methane a partir do teste de pressão drawdown. Os resultados do presente trabalho foram obtidos utilizando o software IHS WellTest.

Authors: Mohammad S. , Nguyen H. , Nguyen M. , Abdel-Rasoul M. , Nguyen V. , Nguyen C.D. , Nguyen K.T. , Li L. , Kitzmiller J.P.
Published: July 2018

Background: Statins are effective for primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. They also have systemic anti-inflammatory and immunomodulating properties suggesting potential utility for improving clinical outcomes for a wide range of diseases. The literature provides data suggesting benefit in patients with comorbidities associated with contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, head injury, neurological disease (e.g. Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease), prostate cancer, nuclear cataract and spinal cord injury. This systematic review evaluates the current evidence supporting the potential benefit of statins outside their customary role of attenuating cardiovascular risk reduction.  Methods: The electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, and clinicaltrials.gov were searched for studies published January 2000 - March 2018 reporting comorbidity reduction associated with statin use.  Results: Fifty-eight publications that satisfied our selection criteria (based on the PRISM guidance for systematic reviews) were selected and included case-control, cohort, cross-sectional and observational studies as well as systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Ten studies addressed statin use and incidence of CIN after coronary imaging; 8 addressed statin use in patients with COPD; 14 addressed statin use and comorbidity reduction associated with head injury and/or a neurological disease disorder; 5 addressed the association between statin use and nuclear cataract; 9 addressed the association between statin use and prostate/colorectal cancer; 9 studies addressed the role of statin use in treating infections; and 3 addressed the association between statin use and spinal cord injury related survival rate.  Conclusion: Overall, the literature supports beneficial pleiotropic effects of statin use in contrastinduced nephropathy, head injury, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, nuclear cataract, prostate cancer, infection management, and spinal cord injury. Further investigation is warranted, and randomized clinical trials are needed to confirm the clinical utility suggested by the reported studies included in this meta-analysis.

Authors: Mahapatra Debarshi K. , Ghorai Soumajit , Bharti Sanjay K. , Patil Asmita G. , Gayen Shovanlal
Published: July 2018

The anti-infective potentials of the natural products are very well known for centuries and
are a part of traditional healing. The foremost therapeutic classes include flavones, isoflavones, flavonols,
flavanones, flavanols, proanthocyanidins, anthocyanidins, chalcones, and aurones. The chalcone
or 1,3-diphenyl-2E-propene-1-one represents the class of natural products which are comprised of benzylideneacetophenone
function; i.e. two aromatic moieties linked together by an α, β-unsaturated carbonyl
bridge comprising three-carbons. At present, chalcone is one of the privileged scaffolds that can
be synthesized in the laboratory to derive different pharmacologically active compounds. This article is
the continued form of the previously published work on anti-infective perspectives of chalcones (highlighted
till 2015). The current work emphasizes on the discovery process of the chalcone in the period
of 2016 to 2017 on malaria, trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, filaria, tuberculosis, netamodes, Human
Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
(SARS), and miscellaneous conditions. This review comprehensively focuses on the latest progress related
with the anti-infective chalcones. The content includes the crucial structural features of chalcone
scaffold including structure-activity relationship(s) along with their plausible mechanism of action(s)
from the duration Jan 2016 to Dec 2017. This literature will be of prime interest to medicinal chemists
in getting ideas and concepts for better rational development of potential anti-infective inhibitors.

Published: July 2018

Background:

Nanotechnology pictures a breakthrough in the domain of cancer therapy owing to its
novel properties and functions. This technology is quite amendable as it allows the scientists to engineer drug
nanoparticles of dimensions 10nm – 500nm permitting them to pass via leaky vasculature of tumorigenic microenvironment
with higher specificity, reduced cytotoxicity and effective release without any after effects. The
central part of the review zooms onto the role of nanoparticles and their targeted delivery for the cure of cancer.

Methods:

The novel and various versatile nanoparticle platforms viz. polymeric (drug-conjugates, micelles,
dendrimers), Lipid-based (liposomes, solid nanoparticle, nanostructured lipid carrier, lipid-polymer hybrid), and
stimuli-sensitive (thermoresponsive, ultrasound, pH-responsive, hydrogel) etc. have been designed for a persistent,
précised nanodrug delivery and the co-delivery of collegial drug conjugates leading to the formation of
safer release of myriad of drugs for cancer chemoprevention.

Results:

The review concerns about tracing and detailing the drug delivery systems of cancer nanotechnology.

Nanotechnology is bestowed with the design, depiction, fabrication, and application of nanostructures,
and devices with their controlled delivery together with the imaging of the selected target site and drug
release at the specific site of action.
Stepwise Development of BullyDown, a Text Messaging-Based Bullying Prevention Program for Middle School Students (Preprint)
Authors: Ybarra Michele L , Prescott Tonya L , Espelage Dorothy L
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Bullying is a significant public health issue among middle school-aged youth. Current prevention programs have only a moderate impact. Cell phone text messaging technology (mHealth) can potentially overcome existing challenges, particularly those that are structural (e.g., limited time that teachers can devote to non-educational topics). To date, the description of the development of empirically-based mHealth-delivered bullying prevention programs are lacking in the literature.

OBJECTIVE

To describe the development of BullyDown, a text messaging-based bullying prevention program for middle school students, guided by the Social-Emotional Learning model.

METHODS

We implemented five activities over a 12-month period: (1) national focus groups (n = 37 youth) to gather acceptability of program components; (2) development of content; (3) a national Content Advisory Team (n = 9 youth) to confirm content tone; and (4) an internal team test of software functionality followed by a beta test (n = 22 youth) to confirm the enrollment protocol and the feasibility and acceptability of the program.

RESULTS

The focus group recruitment experience suggests that Facebook advertising was less efficient than using a recruitment firm. Sixth grade youth had difficulty engaging in the bulletin board-style focus groups, suggesting that participants may need to be in at least 7th grade to have the writing skills for this research activity. Feedback from the Content Advisory Team suggests a preference for 2-4 brief text messages per day. Beta test findings suggest that BullyDown is both feasible and acceptable: 100% of youth completed the follow-up survey, 86% of whom liked the program.

CONCLUSIONS

Text messaging appears to be a feasible and acceptable delivery method for bullying prevention programming delivered to middle school students.
EMERGING TRENDS IN ORAL BIOAVAILABILITY ENHANCEMENT
Authors: Talegaonkar S , Ahmad A , Tariq M , Khan Z.I. , Negi L.M. , Khan A.M , Negi P.
Published: July 2018

Oral route is one of the most accepted and convenient mode of drug administration, however low oral bioavailability of many drugs is a major concern which limits their oral administration. Optimum solubility and permeation of a drug across the intestinal epithelium is a prerequisite to reach the systematic circulation in the active form for effective action at the desired site. Physicochemical properties of the drug, physiological factors and pharmacokinetic factors are mainly responsible for their low solubility, low permeability and high metabolism which in turn into low oral bioavailability of the drug molecules. In this review, various factors which affect bioavailability of drugs and possible approaches to overcome this problem have been discussed.  The review identifies various areas for research that can be focused for improving oral bioavailability of therapeutic molecules for different classes of drugs, thus making the oral route of administration of the drugs more effective and useful.
Indie w globalnym systemie pomocy rozwojowej
Authors: Pałgan Katarzyna
Published: July 2018

Motywacja: W literaturze przedmiotu brakuje oceny efektywności pomocy rozwojowej otrzymywanej i świadczonej przez Indie. Korzyści wynikające z uzupełnienia istniejącej luki poznawczej były głównym motywem podjęcia tematu.
Cel: Celem artykułu jest ocena pomocy rozwojowej, kierowanej do Indii, jako jednego z wschodzących donatorów. Uwzględniono różne aspekty rozwoju, zwłaszcza w perspektywie najmniej zamożnych mieszkańców państwa.
Materiały i metody: Wykorzystano analizę literatury przedmiotu, analizę danych wtórnych, obserwację uczestniczącą oraz analizę wizualną.
Wyniki: Na podstawie przeglądu literatury oraz wniosków z obserwacji można wyciągnąć wniosek o braku skuteczności oraz efektywności pomocy rozwojowej zarówno otrzymywanej, jak i świadczonej przez Indie. Ponadto stwierdzono, że przypadek Indii wskazuje na niezgodność definicji pomocy rozwojowej jako instrumentu prowadzącego do rozwoju państw-beneficjentów, a raczej jako środka tworzenia relacji politycznych i ekonomicznych służących w głównej mierze państwom donatorom.
Elementos sócio-teológicos para afirmar as religiões como caminhos de paz: o espírito da Populorum Progressio no pontificado de Francisco
Authors: Wolff Elias
Published: July 2018

Aos 50 anos da encíclica Populorum Progressio, é importante verificar como sua proposta continua vigente para a humanidade em nossos dias, sobretudo no mundo globalizado que apresenta novos desafios para as relações de justiça entre os povos. Como situam-se as religiões nesse contexto? Verifica-se ambiguidades: as religiões podem ser caminhos para a paz, mas, também, legitimação de situações de violência. Para termos paz no mundo, urge humanizar não apenas as culturas dos povos, mas também as suas religiões. Para isso é preciso identificar quando, onde e porque pode haver o vínculo entre violência e sagrado contra os processos de paz. Então é urgente rever as doutrinas, estruturas e práticas religiosas, reconstruindo os sistemas religiosos como caminhos para a paz. É o que propõe o papa Francisco ao exortar para uma “cultura do encontro” e do “diálogo”. Assim, as religiões tornam-se meios de vivificação do social, vinculando fé e ética nas iniciativas de diálogo e de cooperação que afirmam a fraternidade universal. É nesse horizonte que se legitimam os esforços pelo “desenvolvimento dos povos”.
Farklı yüzyıllar aynı biçimler: V. Propp'un işlevsel yaklaşımı çerçevesinde Alacakaranlık film serisi üzerine bir çözümleme ve kitle kültürü sineması eleştirisi

Published: July 2018

Sinema geçmişten günümüze değin insanların
ufuklarında yenidünyalar açmayı başarabilen bir sanat olarak karşımıza
çıkmaktadır. Ancak, sinema bir diğer yanı ile endüstri bağımlıdır. Bu
endüstriye dayalı sinema içerisinde anlatısını efsanelerden alan filmler geniş
bir seyirci kitlesi edinmiştir. Hikâyesi vampirler ve kurt adamlara dayanan,
Alacakaranlık (Twilight, 2008-2012) film serisi de dünya çapında en çok izlenen
filmlerden birisi olmuştur. Bu tür filmlerin yeni bir üretim değil, sadece
belirli işlevlere dayanan kitle kültürü sinemasının bir ürünü olduğu fikri ile
yola çıkılan makalede, Alacakaranlık film serisi Vladimir Propp'un literatüre
kazandırdığı işlevsel çözümleme yöntemi ile analiz edilerek bu varsayımın
geçerliliği sınanmıştır. Çözümleme sonucunda 2000'li yıllarda vizyona giren
filmlerin 1900'lü yıllarda efsaneleşen masallar ile aynı işlevlere sahip olduğu
sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu noktada önemli olan ise, yüzyıl geçmesine rağmen
belirli işlevlerin kullanımı ile seyircide belirli bir beğeni kalıbının
yaratımının sağlanması ve dolayısıyla kültür endüstrisinin devamını sağlayan
mesajların geniş kitlelere iletilmesidir. Böylece, filmler kullandıkları
işlevler ile seyirciyi büyülü dünyasına çekerken sistemin yeniden üretiminin
sürekliliği sağlanır.

Esse ensaio analisa a obra De mim já nem se lembra, de Luiz Ruffato (2016), através de um mapeamento do sujeito social e de que forma sua narrativa atravessa os lugares por onde passa. Através da troca de cartas com a mãe, que permanece em Cataguazes, José Célio constrói um espaço único de pertencimento e afetividade através do relato de sua trajetória individual e solitária em São Paulo, cartografada por lugares diferentes e marcada pela ausência. Por isso, esse romance epistolar pode ser visto como uma estratégia de resistência do sujeito ao apagamento do espaço da memória, do afeto e das relações significativas, como consequência do processo modernizador autoritário imposto pela ditadura militar no Brasil à época.Palavras-chave: Migração. Afeto. Modernização.

É UMA CASA PORTUGUESA COM CERTEZA OU O ESPLENDOR DE PORTUGAL
Authors: Rückert Gustavo Henrique
Published: July 2018

O esplendor de Portugal, romance publicado pelo escritor português António Lobo Antunes em 1997, representa o declínio da ação colonial portuguesa na África a partir do retrato de uma tradicional família de colonos em Angola no contexto do pós-independência e da guerra civil. A figura da casa da família, localizada em uma fazenda na Baixa do Cassanje, passa a ser o elemento fundamental para a compreensão das relações de poder decorrentes daquela sociedade. É a partir das memórias das vivências de quatro membros da família no local (Isilda, Carlos, Rui e Clarisse), que o colonialismo mistura-se à vida pessoal e passa a ser narrado a partir de suas fronteiras. Dessa forma, este artigo pretende investigar a figura da casa em O esplendor de Portugal enquanto espaço de manifestação das relações coloniais estabelecidas nas margens do império português. Para a análise proposta, serão utilizados os estudos teóricos e críticos de diferentes autores, entre os quais destacam-se Homi Bhabha e Boaventura de Sousa Santos.Palavras-chave: Casa. Colonialismo. Portugal.ABSTRACTThe splendor of Portugal, a novel published by the Portuguese writer António Lobo Antunes in 1997, represents the decline of Portuguese colonial action in Africa, focusing on the portrait of a traditional settler family in Angola in the context of post-independence and civil war. The figure of the family house, located on a farm in the Baixa do Cassanje, becomes the fundamental element for the understanding of the relations of power deriving from that society. Colonialism mixes with personal life and begins to be narrated from its borders with the memories of the experiences of four members of the family in the place (Isilda, Carlos, Rui and Clarisse). Thus, this article intends to investigate the figure of the house in The splendor of Portugal as a space of manifestation of the colonial relations established on the margins of the Portuguese empire. The theoretical and critical studies of different authors, notably Homi Bhabha and Boaventura de Sousa Santos, will be used for the proposed analysis.Keywords: House. Colonialism. Portugal.

Partindo de uma perspectiva da estranheza do universo criado pelo autor e da possível ligação com Kafka, sobretudo no que se refere à “parábola sem chave” apontada por Walter Benjamin, o texto discute os romances do autor português sob a perspectiva de uma narrativa sem história e sem geografia, cujo universo, modulado pela força, ilustra de modo mais eficaz as marcas do comportamento social na pós-modernidade: o renascimento do terror sob a máscara da ordem numa época de saturação da democracia.Palavras-chave: Gonçalo M. Tavares. Romance contemporâneo. Pós-modernidade.RESUMENEn este trabajo se presenta una lectura de los libros que componen la tetralogía de Gonçalo M.

O FETICHE DOS QUEPES SEBASTIANISTAS
Authors: Barberena Ricardo
Published: July 2018

No limiar entre a filosofia e a poesia, existe uma territorialidade híbrida na qual se operam intercâmbios analógicos e ficções epistemológicas. E é justamente nessa área de contágio que se encontra a escritura de Teixeira Coelho, em História natural da ditadura. Através de uma narrativa filosófica. Ou seria uma filosofia narrativizada? Afinal, como bem ressalta Sartre, em toda filosofia há uma “prosa literária escondida”. No íntimo da filosofia, aloja-se a eterna tentação do poético, quer nos congratulemos com o fato, quer o deploremos. Esse inquietante texto contemporâneo de Teixeira Coelho transita por uma espacialidade em paralaxe no tocante aos diferentes sistemas de opressão e violência. Ao visitar o não-monumento a Walter Benjamin, a obra de León Ferrari ou os cárceres da ditadura brasileira, a obra propõe uma pungente reflexão fragmentada por estilhaços memorialísticos e por epifanias líricas. Como relâmpagos de poesia, a escritura filosófico-poética de Teixeira Coelho tece uma simultaneidade de sentidos: a ditadura como estado natural, a natureza da ditadura, a inacabada e constante crônica da depravação e cumplicidade com a repressão.Palavras-chave: Literatura contemporânea. Ditadura. Identidade. Poesia do pensamento.ABSTRACTAt the point where philosophy meets poetry, there is a hybrid territory in which operates analogical exchanges and epistemological fictions. And it is in precisely this area of contagion that Teixeira Coelho’s writing resides in ‘Natural History of Dictatorship’. Via a philosophical narrative. Or perhaps a narrated philosophy? After all, as Sartre points out, in all philosophy there is a “hidden literary prose”. In the depths of philosophy, lies the eternal temptation of the poetic, whether we welcome or deplore it. This disturbing contemporary text by Teixeira Coelho t moves by a spatiality in parallax as to the different systems of oppression and violence. Whether visiting the non-monument to Walter Benjamin, the work of Léon Ferrari, or the prisons of the Brazilian dictatorship, the work proposes a poignant reflection fragmented by shrapnel memoirs and lyrical epiphanies. Like poetic lightning, the philosophical-poetic writing by Teixeira Coelho weaves concurrent senses: the dictatorship as natural state, the nature of the dictatorship, the unfinished and constant chronicle of depravity and complicity with the repression.Keywords: Contemporary literature. Dictatorship. Identity. Poetry of thought.
