AUTISMO E METÁFORAS MULTIMODAIS: IMPACTO DISCURSIVO DE AÇÕES E DE CONCEPÇÕES CAPACITISTAS
Authors: Leitão Alex Bezerra
Published: July 2022

Este artigo tem como objetivo investigar a (co)construção metafórico-multimodal que advém do impacto discursivo de ações e de concepções capacitistas em relação ao autismo. Para tanto, adoto uma aproximação entre a Análise de Discurso Crítica, orientado por Fairclough (2003, 2006), os estudos da metáfora conceptual, influenciado por Fauconnier e Turner (2003, 2008) e por Vereza (2010, 2017), a metáfora multimodal, encaminhada por Forceville (1988, 2009) e por Sperandio (2015), e a Sociolinguística Interacional, em consonância com Goffman (1998 [1979]) e com Tannen e Wallet (1998 [1987]). No âmbito da pesquisa qualitativa, o corpus desta pesquisa foi gerado a partir de discussões com pessoas autistas sobre um texto multimodal publicado na revista Saúde, em 2019, por meio da plataforma WhatsApp. Os resultados apontam que metáforas socioculturalmente situadas, instanciadas em práticas sociais que representam e que identificam pessoas autistas como ‘solitárias’, ‘seres de outro planeta’, ‘anjo azul’, subjazem a metáfora conceptual AUTISMO É ESTAR FORA, colaborando com a manutenção do capacitismo em estruturas sociais.
A CONDIÇÃO HETEROGÊNEA DA FORMAÇÃO DISCURSIVA E A FRAGMENTAÇÃO DA FORMA-SUJEITO: UM SUJEITO “DIVIDIDO” ENTRE AS QUESTÕES IDEOLÓGICAS E A CIÊNCIA
Authors: Pasinatto Rubiamara
Published: July 2022

Este estudo toma como aporte teórico-metodológico a Análise de Discurso Francesa, e parte do pressuposto de que uma formação discursiva (FD) tem fronteiras porosas, o que possibilita o atravessamento de saberes e nos permite dizer que a FD pode ser lugar de igualdade, mas também pode abrigar a diferença e a contradição. A partir disso, amparados em Indursky (2008), propomos um deslocamento de algumas questões teóricas, principalmente naquilo que tange à fragmentação da forma-sujeito da FD, o que implica admitir que assim como a formação discursiva, a forma-sujeito também é heterogênea, isto é, abriga a diferença e a ambiguidade em seu interior. Em consequência disso, a forma-sujeito é espaço para várias posições-sujeito, as quais vão se delineando conforme há distanciamento dos saberes que organizam a posição-sujeito dominante. Diante dessa perspectiva, pautados nesta possibilidade de deslocar a teoria, este artigo tem o objetivo analisar as contradições e tensionamentos discursivos presentes em uma declaração do ex-ministro-chefe da Casa Civil, Luiz Eduardo Ramos. Em específico, o corpus está relacionado ao episódio no qual, sem saber que a reunião do Conselho Federal de Saúde Suplementar estava sendo transmita via internet, Ramos declarou ter sido imunizado para a Covid-19, embora não era a orientação, conforme o próprio ex-ministro revelou.
UMA IMAGEM DE INFLUÊNCIA MUNDIAL: OS ETHE DISCURSIVOS DE JOE BIDEN NO DISCURSO DE VITÓRIA DA ELEIÇÃO PRESIDENCIAL DE 2020
Authors: Batista Raimundo Romão
Published: July 2022

RESUMO: As eleições dos Estados Unidos da América de 2020 foram repletas de situações complicadas, principalmente num momento que o mundo vivenciava os impactos destrutivos da pandemia da Covid-19. No lado republicano, Donald Trump tentava a reeleição, concorrendo com Joe Biden, do partido democrata. Depois de um processo conturbado, Biden foi o vencedor da eleição. Com isso, surge o seguinte questionamento: que ethe discursivos são revelados por Joe Biden no momento de apresentação do discurso da vitória nas eleições presidenciais de 2020?  Diante de tal questionamento, o objetivo deste artigo é identificar e analisar os ethe revelados por Joe Biden no discurso da vitória para presidente em 2020. E, como forma de concretizar tal objetivo, realizamos uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa, de caráter descritivo-interpretativo e documental. Em relação ao corpus, este é composto de doze excertos coletados do discurso da vitória de Biden e que foram analisados tendo como base os postulados teóricos de Maingueneau (2008, 2013, 2016, 2020), Aristóteles (2005), Heine (2007) e outros. Diante disso, percebemos que Biden, como fiador do discurso mostrou vários ethe, tais como: valorizador da união Pregador dos princípios dos Estados Unidos, homem que valoriza os laços familiares, representante da gratidão e outros.
O DISCURSO FUNDADOR NA CONSTRUÇÃO DE NARRATIVAS EM CERRO LARGO (RS): UMA LEITURA DE NOMES DE RUAS
Authors: Ana Beatriz Ferreira Dias  , Rafaela Oppermann Miranda
Published: July 2022

Neste trabalho, problematizamos nomes de ruas enquanto signos ideológicos que apontam para a construção de determinados projetos discursivos no espaço urbano. Analisamos os sentidos produzidos por nomes de ruas do centro de Cerro Largo, uma cidade situada no interior do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul (RS). Das 20 ruas que compõem o centro da cidade, delimitamos a análise à compreensão de oito nomes de ruas. O critério de seleção adotado consistiu na eleição de nomes de ruas que tenham relação com sujeitos ou eventos históricos. Tomamos como fundamentação teórica central a teoria do Círculo de Bakhtin e, no que se refere à metodologia de análise, realizamos o cotejamento entre textos (GERALDI, 2012) desenvolvido no terreno do paradigma indiciário de leitura (GINZBURG, 1989). Notamos que os nomes das ruas sustentam um projeto discursivo que elege a etnia alemã e a religião católica como centros de valor que remetem à origem e à organização da cidade. Com isso, narrativas que envolvam outros grupos sociais não recebem visibilidade no cenário urbano do município. Os nomes das ruas revelam, assim, um certo monolinguismo e univocidade ao construir uma história da cidade.
DIÁLOGOS INTERCULTURAIS EM NADA DIGO DE TI QUE EM TI NÃO VEJA
Authors: Tiburcio Barbosa Roberta
Published: July 2022

Os agenciamentos socioculturais apontam para as múltiplas atividades de disputas e (re)negociações entre os sujeitos políticos. A literatura é um desses espaços no qual transitam e interconectam-se diversas demandas. Hodiernamente, a produção literária negra, especialmente no que se refere aos textos escritos por mulheres, vem questionando certos pressupostos hegemônicos que são marcadores de hierarquizações entre os grupos sociais.   Eliana Alves cruz é uma das escritoras negras brasileiras que emergem na contemporaneidade apresentando reivindicações de direitos e visibilidade para as potencialidades das pessoas negras. Conhecida por seus romances históricos, a autora trouxe em 2020 mais uma narrativa que opera uma desestabilização dos centros de dominação socio-histórica, ao ressaltar as trajetórias de lutas e subversões de personagens negras no Brasil escravagista do século XVIII. Nesse sentido, por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica, procuraremos discutir os processos de interculturalidade e afirmação das subjetividades negras manifestados no romance Nada digo de ti que em ti não veja, de Eliane Alves Cruz (2020). Os processos de alteridade inscritos no romance histórico em foco, principalmente aqueles nos quais se analisa a atuação da protagonista da trama – a mulher negra transgênereo Vitória-, evidenciam as resistências e enfrentamentos das comunidades negras perante os sistemas de opressão.
VIDA E PROEZAS DE ALÉXIS ZORBÁS: O CAOSMO DE NIKOS KAZANTZÁKIS?
Authors: Rodrigues Santos João Victor
Published: July 2022

Entre 1941 e 1943, Nikos Kazantzákis escreveu Vida e proezas de Aléxis Zorbás, romance publicado em 1946. O livro trata de um narrador em busca da plena experimentação da vida e chegou ao Brasil em 1951. Ao comprar uma mina de carvão na ilha de Creta, o narrador conhece Aléxis Zorbás, personagem vivido e pitoresco, e busca entregar-se à apreciação e à vivência da vida. Com o decorrer da narrativa, podemos concluir que Zorbás representa a figura daquele que ultrapassou as barreiras morais e os juízos éticos dos homens, mas não se desvinculou de certo primitivismo. Os princípios apolíneo e dionisíaco se interpenetram tanto no pensamento de Nietzsche quanto na prosa kazantzakiana, levando-nos à ideia do “caosmos”, expressão que, consoante Roberto Machado, adviria de Joyce e concentraria os polos de medida e de desmedida. Pretendemos nos dedicar a uma análise do romance, objetivando investigar as relações entre Literatura e Filosofia, de modo mais detido nos reflexos presentes na escrita de Kazantzákis do pensamento de Nietzsche em Assim falava Zaratustra. Para tanto, valer-nos-emos das contribuições de estudiosos como Cícero (2004, 2012), Machado (2004), Nunes (2010) e outros.
AS PISTAS DE CONTRACULTURA NA POESIA DE MÁRIO JORGE
Authors: Mendonça Katherine de Albuquerque
Published: July 2022

O presente trabalho busca identificar marcas deixadas pelo poeta sergipano Mário Jorge, em suas poesias, que caracterizaram seu fazer poético com traços do movimento de contracultura, uma vez que é possível, por meio da interpretação aberta, detectar pistas nos versos das poesias que trazem características do movimento, direta ou indiretamente. Para isso, serão tomados como base para esse trabalho os estudos de Humberto Eco (2005) acerca dos limites da interpretação e da superinterpretação, considerando a necessidade de desvendar os sentidos do texto a partir das informações deixadas pelo próprio texto, e a teoria da desconstrução elaborada por Jacques Derrida (2002), uma vez que o deslocamento do centro abre espaço para que se estudem novas formas de fazer poesia. Ademais, os estudos elaborados por Maciel (1973) no tocante às questões da contracultura contribuirão com o trabalho, ao considerarmos a relevância de entender o movimento contracultural para que seja possível identificar esses traços na poesia de Mário Jorge.
ROMANTISMOS NA PROVÍNCIA: A RECEPÇÃO DOS DISCURSOS ROMÂNTICOS NA IMPRENSA PIAUIENSE OITOCENTISTA
Authors: Moreira Pedro Henrique de Sousa , Santos Natália Gonçalves de Souza
Published: July 2022

É possível dizer que poucos movimentos literários tiveram a consciência de sua importância histórica como o Romantismo e, em especial, o brasileiro que, na esteira da independência política, tomou a si a missão de constituir os símbolos da nacionalidade, um passado heroico e, mais importante, uma literatura que exprimisse a ainda incipiente brasilidade. Nesse sentido, o objetivo principal deste artigo é analisar imagens, encontradas em prosa ou poesia, publicadas em periódicos piauienses destacadamente literários, que circularam no século XIX, a fim de compreender como foi a recepção dos discursos românticos na região. Trata-se de pensar se as imagens literárias divulgadas no Piauí seguiam as que eram publicadas nos jornais da Corte e/ou se se relacionavam, de alguma forma, à própria província na qual foram divulgadas. Trabalhando com um corpus que se estende dos inícios da década de 1850 até fins dos anos 1880, a metodologia aqui adotada partiu da pesquisa de fontes primárias, alocadas em dois acervos específicos de acesso remoto: a Hemeroteca Digital, da Biblioteca Nacional e o Projeto Memória do Jornalismo Piauiense, da UFPI.
LETRAMENTO VISUAL E O GÊNERO NOTÍCIA EM LIVRO DIDÁTICO
Authors: Melo Paulo Vitor , Souza Carina Aparecida Lima de
Published: July 2022

O objetivo deste estudo é investigar eventos de letramento visual na proposição de ensino do gênero textual notícia pelo livro didático de língua portuguesa para primeiro ano do Ensino Médio, adotado pelo Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Tocantins para o triênio 2018/2019/2020. Como processo de justificativa da pesquisa, destacam-se dois aspectos de importante relevância social, no que se refere ao ensino de língua portuguesa no Brasil contemporâneo: (i) reflexão sobre proposição de ensino de gêneros textuais em livro didático; e (ii) reflexão sobre letramento visual em proposta de ensino de gênero textual multimodal. Para fundamentação deste trabalho, o arcabouço foi construído, principalmente, com base em Marcuschi (2008), sobre gêneros textuais; Kalantzis e Cope (2008), sobre Multiletramentos; e Kress e van Leeuwen (2006), sobre Multimodalidade. Os resultados deste estudo apontam que o livro didático analisado, para ensino do gênero notícia, não desenvolve proposição didática que contemple o letramento visual. No geral, o livro didático, por vezes, ignora o letramento visual e, por vezes, trata-o de modo incipiente. Nesse sentido, esta pesquisa evidencia que o livro didático analisado privilegia, na maioria das vezes, o ensino de aspectos verbais.

Authors: Oliveira Augusto , Komesu Fabiana
Published: July 2022

Com base em pressupostos dos Estudos de Letramentos Críticos e da Análise do Discurso de linha francesa, este artigo tem como objetivo discutir a imagem de leitor modelo – isto é, a imagem virtual de um leitor preexistente àquele que efetivamente lidará com o texto produzido –  projetada pelo serviço de checagem de fatos “Saúde sem Fake News”, do Ministério da Saúde (MS) do Governo Federal do Brasil, no enfrentamento à desinformação (desinfodemia) sobre a COVID-19. O conjunto do material é formado de 85 (oitenta e cinco) produções textuais verbo-visuais publicadas entre janeiro e junho de 2020, então disponíveis para acesso público e gratuito em plataformas digitais do MS. A análise de cunho descritivo e qualitativo está voltada a investigar se havia retomada total, retomada parcial ou ainda nenhuma retomada do objeto checado, considerando a projeção de determinadas competências do público leitor. Os resultados apontam para uma imagem de leitor que oscila entre o especializado e aquele com formação científica pouco ou não consolidada, preocupado com a assertividade do fato checado, em termos de “verdadeiro” ou “falso”, e para quem o serviço contribui de maneira pontual na promoção de letramento científico.

This paper explores how contemporary Taiwan cinema represents family,intimacy, and ethnicity driven by transnational migration with a focus on secondgenerationimmigrants, and examines how they define themselves and reimaginefamily form and ethnic relationships. Two feature films analyzed in the paperboth centralize its theme on immigrant families: Chung Mong-Hong’s TheFourth Portrait (2010) depicts a cross-cultural family, consisting of a Chinesemother, Taiwanese stepfather, and a few father-like figures, from the perspectiveof a ten-year-old boy. Tseng Ying-Ting’s Ye-Zai (2013) focuses on the journeyof a mixed-race character Ye-Zai and a Thai migrant worker Ganya who forma cross-ethnic alliance. This paper sheds light on the cinematic narrative ofinterracial and cross-cultural family to examine the dynamic association betweenthe newly-formed family relationship and cultural landscape. It also examineshow the polyphonic expression adopted in the films challenges the typicalfamily structure. Finally, it proposes that the trope of “home” in contemporaryfilmmaking has been redefined to reflect the growing population of marriagemigrants and migrant workers and the transformation of family structure.Meanwhile, the second-generation of immigrants have constructed theiridentities in addition to recreating a home.

 
回收羅漢腳：《大佛普拉斯》的酷兒華語語系未來主義
Authors: 紀大偉 紀大偉
Published: July 2022

「酷兒華語語系未來主義」這個新興概念提供「華語語系」研究介入「酷兒未來」議題的機會。本文則藉著分析電影《大佛普拉斯》，試圖鼓勵臺灣研究介入這種未來主義的論述舞臺。片中庶民角色宛如本土歷史活化石「羅漢腳」，同時體現三種落差：中產異性戀男人與羅漢腳的情欲落差、國語使用者與臺語使用者之間的語言落差、手機使用者與科技邊緣人之間的數位落差。這些落差，未必意味這部片無法達到未來主義的預設標準，反而揭發所謂標準的侷限。這部片值得納入酷兒研究，並不是因為它是「酷兒電影」或「同志電影」，也不是因為羅漢腳等於同性戀者，而是因為它暴露出酷兒研究比較少關注的生命樣態：傾向社群（公）而不傾向個人主義（私）的羅漢腳。

 

In response to the progressive transformations of queer theory in theUS, this study proposes the concept of queer sinofuturisms, which is moregeopolitically relevant to Taiwanese studies than other emerging queerdiscourses. Investigating into the acclaimed Taiwanese film, The Great Buddha+,this study suggests that the deprived underclass men in the film are neitherhomosexual nor heterosexual subjects, but subjects similar to the “lô-hàn-kha-á”’figures, in Taiwanese history known for their proletariat male-bonding as wellas their lack of access to women. Despite their sexual, lingual, and technicaldisadvantages being of the “lô-hàn-kha-á” figures, however, they demonstratethe possibilities of embodying not individualism but communitarianism, whosevalues which have less often attracted attention in queer studies.

Background: In underdeveloped nations like Pakistan, nosocomial infections are a leading cause of high morbidity and death. Nosocomial infections may be reduced with the use of standard precautions based on appropriate self-care practises, proper information, and a positive attitude. Objective: The objective of the study is to know about the knowledge, attitudes and practices of health care providers regarding infection control. Study Design: Cross-sectional Place and Duration: Mayo Hospital Lahore. Jan-2021-July 2021 Material and Method: We interviewed a total of 100 health-care professionals, including physicians, nurses, pathologists, and paramedics. A sampling procedure that was convenient was chosen. Following the receipt of informed permission, participants were asked to complete the questionnaires that had been developed to assess their knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors in the area to control infection. SPSS 21.0 version was used to analyzed data. Results: There were 65 (65%) men and 35 (35%) women among the total of 100 health-care personnel. Eighty-five percent of those polled have a basic understanding of how infectious diseases are spread, and ninety-four percent believe that transmission-based precautions are effective in preventing infection. However, ninety-six percent of those polled believe that personal protective equipment (PPE) and strict adherence to standard precautions are essential in preventing infection. Health care workers (HCWs) on average report a shortage of PPE and 90.6% of HCWs wash their hands before and after the process. 71% of healthcare workers used PPE, yet only 78% of those workers recapped needles after using them. Conclusion: We found in this study that there was a high level of general knowledge, attitude, and behaviors among the responding health-care practitioners. Keywords: Nosocomial infection, Knowledge, Practices Attitude

DIRECTIVA EUROPEANĂ PRIVIND TRANSFERUL INTRACOMUNITAR DE PRODUSE DIN DOMENIUL APĂRĂRII ȘI UN MODEL NON-EXHAUSTIV DE APLICARE A SA
Authors: ZECHERU Teodora , BÂRSAN Ghiță
Published: July 2022

Directiva europeană privind transferul intracomunitar de produse din domeniul apărării din anul 2009 a stabilit pași obligatorii care trebuie urmați pentru a simplifica documentația necesară și pentru a crea un cadru unic care să coreleze abordările și reglementările naționale ale statelor membre. Documentul de reglementare a apărut ca urmare a necesității de realizare a unei distincții între operațiunile de importexport și cele de transfer și, în continuare, de securizare a aprovizionării, în cadrul Uniunii Europene. Directiva a introdus un nou sistem de licențiere, bazat pe licențe generale, globale și individuale, încurajând statele membre să utilizeze licențele generale pentru transferuri simple de produse din domeniul apărării între statele membre, cu menținerea controlului asupra intereselor lor esențiale în materie de securitate. Din perspectiva noului Fond European de Apărare, aplicarea directivei este dificilă și ar trebui luate măsuri pentru implementarea sa unitară la nivelul statelor membre, cel puțin din perspectiva transferurilor asociate domeniului cercetare-dezvoltare și inovare.

The study of disability is one of the most important studies in Islam. In the study of Islamic law, the problem of disability is seen as one of the conditions that can cause the perpetrators to get various conveniences and tolerances in carrying out religious rules. However, this perspective is seen as still not enough to be a solution to the problem of disability. This is because this perspective still positions people with disabilities in a powerless position and still does not have the same opportunity to receive their legal rights as legal subjects. This study aims to examine in depth the position and capacity of persons with disabilities as legal subjects in Islamic law. The conclusion of this study is that persons with disabilities are legal subject with full rights as the normal people. They have the right and are capable of receiving and acting legally. In terms of receiving rights, persons with disabilities are full legal subjects. As in the field of ibadah, persons with disabilities have the capacity as full legal subjects but with tolerance according to their abilities. Meanwhile in the field of muamalah, persons with disabilities are subject to certain limitations in their capacity as legal subjects.

Natural compounds, used in ancient medicine for their advantages and tolerance, have recently attracted scientific study. This analysis examines ginger's anti- and anti-vascular dementia (Zingiber officinale) properties, two of the most common and devastating dementias. Clinical trials on Alzheimer's and Vascular Dementia models have indicated therapeutic advantages from ginger compounds. This research reveals that ginger's components may help treat and prevent the disease. Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disorder that primarily affects the elderly and causes cognitive failure. Various cellular problems such as amyloid-beta buildup, hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, neurotransmitter imbalance, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory reactions cause this disease. New Alzheimer's medicines should be able to tackle additional ailments, such as side effects and pharmacokinetic difficulties. Phytochemicals are powerful anti-disease agents that are widely used in humans. In vitro trials are included after eligibility screening. The most frequent interventive processes are oxidative stress and apoptosis. A recent study links Alzheimer's pathology with signalling pathways.

Estimation of serum calcium and phosphorus levels in male cataract patients: A case control study
Authors: Nitturkar Sagar , Channashetti Reshma D , Bubanale S C
Published: July 2022

Introduction: Cataract is vision-impairing disease marked by incremental, progressive lens thickening. The lens is composed of G-protein receptors that are linked to intracellular calcium release. Through the activation of calcium dependent proteases, elevated calcium levels can indicate metabolic disturbances and cell component disruption. The Na+-K+ ATPase pump’s activity in maintaining a low cytoplasm Ca2+ concentration increases calcium levels significantly, causing rapid lens fibre breakdown, uncontrolled protein breakdown, cell swelling, and opacification. Phosphorus is involved in membrane permeability of the lens.  The objective of the present study was to estimate and compare the serum calcium and phosphorus levels in males diagnosed with cataract and without cataract. Methodology: A total of 110 subjects were studied, of which 55 were diagnosed cataract patients and 55 were controls with no signs of cataract on ophthalmologic examination.  Serum calcium and phosphorus were estimated. The obtained data was analysed statistically. Independent t test was used to associate the parameters. Results: In our study we found significantly increased levels of serum calcium in cataract patients (p<0.05) as compared to controls. Serum phosphorus concentration in cataract patients (p<0.05) was significantly increased as compared to controls.
