Eficiência na produção de conhecimento científico dos Programas de Pós-Graduação da área de Agronomia do Brasil no período de 2013-2019
Authors:   , Aquino Aline Lopes de
Published: September 2022

A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo central analisar quais seriam os principais fatores que influenciaram a eficiência dos PPG da área de Agronomia do Brasil na produção de conhecimento científico, no período de 2013-2016 e 2017-2019. Para tanto, foi utilizado a Análise Envoltória de Dados (DEA) com retornos variáveis, orientação produto e restrição aos pesos. Os outputs foram definidos tendo como base a pontuação Qualis das publicações e o número de teses/dissertações do programa, enquanto como inputs utilizou-se o número de docentes permanentes e de bolsas de fomento. Além do mais, foi investigado se houve mudanças na produtividade total dos fatores dos PPG através do Índice de Malmquist, considerando os dois períodos em análise. De acordo com os resultados do modelo DEA, os PPG da área de Agronomia apresentaram um índice de eficiência médio de 63% no período de 2013-2016, sendo que oito programas foram eficientes. No segundo período, 2017-2019, houve uma redução no índice para 52,7%, tendo cinco programas atingindo a eficiência. Adicionalmente, verificou-se que a qualidade das publicações se mostrou extremamente importante para que os programas alcancem a eficiência, sendo que que os programas eficientes publicaram, majoritariamente, em periódicos A1 e A2, diferentemente dos programas ineficientes, que tinham a maior parte de suas publicações efetuadas nos estratos mais baixos. Em relação às características dos programas, observou-se que a maioria dos programas eficientes são da região Sudeste, recebem bolsas de fomento do Proex e possuem mais tempo de existência. Em relação aos resultados do Índice de Malmquist, tem-se que a maioria dos programas analisados, aproximadamente 71%, reduziram sua produtividade na produção de conhecimento científico entre os períodos de 2013-2016 e 2017-2019. Essa queda na produtividade teria ocorrido, principalmente, através de uma redução na eficiência técnica pura, revelando que os programas têm piorado a forma como estão alocando os seus recursos. Além disso, outras variáveis que apresentaram correlação significativa com a eficiência e a produtividade dos PPG da área de Agronomia, foram: porcentagem de docente permanente, docente permanente em pesquisa e docente colaborador, projetos de pesquisa, discentes matriculados e total de artigos. Por fim, no que se refere ao conceito da Capes, verificou-se a existência de uma relação entre a eficiência dos programas e o conceito atribuído pela instituição. Concluiu-se que a eficiência/ineficiência está relacionada com a forma com a qual os programas gerem os seus recursos. Assim, não seria a falta de recursos que estaria impedindo os programas ineficientes de prosperarem, mas a má administração desses recursos. Palavras-chave: Eficiência. Produção de conhecimento.

Speaking skill is one of the communication skills. A good teacher must have the ability to communicate effectively, empathically, and politely. The communication skills of a teacher will determine the success of the previously designed program. With good speaking skills and techniques, a teacher can convey information clearly in front of students. The key to speaking skills is how a person can speak well and structure so that the ideas he wants to convey can be easily understood by many people. Speaking skills are not only how to speak but also must be accompanied by body language, self-confidence, confidence, and a good demeanor to make the audience feel comfortable. A teacher who has to deliver subject matter every day or deliver educational messages to students can be categorized as a good speaker teacher. With good speaking skills, teachers can more easily deal with unexpected situations. In addition, the importance of speaking skills for teachers is that all material and information conveyed to students will be easier to understand and well received.

The front-line health care workers faced many challenges and risks during this COVID-19 pandemic. The HCWs has a direct effect and carried a major burden and consequences in the control of this virus. Apart from physical stress the HCW suffering from psychological complications. This systemic review highlights the adverse mental health outcomes and other identifiable risk factors that affect their psychological behaviour during this COVID-19 pandemic. In this review, three databases were reviewed in different time points and literature have done according to WHO guidelines and PRISMA guidelines. In this review, we included various observational, experimental, and published articles that reported the mental health or psychological affects of the COVID -19 pandemic on HCWs. This study indicates that the COVID 19 pandemic has a potential effect on front-line HCWs in their psychological well-being. The data obtained from 24 studies in this review mainly from HCWs working at urban hospitals in China. Till now there is no evidence comparison with primary care workers. Whereas nurses are at high risk of adverse mental health outcomes compared to other health care workers. Other factors like gender, socioeconomic factors, underlying illness, lack of systemic support were the risk factors of adverse mental health outcomes. Furthermore, it is evident that PPE, exposure, workplace setting, testing have an impact on HCWs with COVID 19 infection and affect their mental health outcomes. It was observed that the maximum number of HCWs reported this COVID 19 infection during the first six months of the pandemic. The prevalence of hospitalization is 15% and with psychological problems of 1.5%. Still, extensive data is needed to observe the mental health problems among HCWs.

Skin health is important in providing an aesthetic appeal and also in personal health. Facial cosmetics keep skin hydrated and remove sebum and impurities from skin thus maintaining proper skin health. It imparts a psychosocial effect on people. Cosmetics intended especially for facial application protects the facial skin, which can be cream, lotion, face mask etc. The use of suitable face masks according to the facial skin types result in healthy skin. Hydrogel masks provide cooling and soothing effects to sensitive skin. Hydrogels have high-water content and their hydrophilic base creates a matrix to the skin, thus allows high efficacy in delivering active ingredients into the skin, thus suitable as facial mask ingredient. Caffeine hydrogel face mask containing caffeine and sodium alginate can be useful for multi-purpose. In this study 1.5% caffeine was formulated with a concentration of 4% sodium alginate to form the hydrogel face mask. Caffeine is being increasingly used in cosmetics due to its anti-aging, anti-oxidant and wound healing properties. It helps protect cell against UV radiation and slows down the process of photo aging. The physical stability of hydrogel face mask was evaluated by organoleptic observation, viscosity, pH, spreadability, hydrogel mask acidity and drying time measurements. The results showed that the hydrogel face mask remained stable in colour and odor for 12 weeks. The study revealed that the hydrogel face mask containing caffeine is stable and has good physical characteristics which makes the hydrogel face mask satisfactory for use as a neutracosmeceutical product. The hydrogel mask tested in this study is very effective in improving skin hydration and skin radiance, encouraging an even skin tone, reducing skin pigmentation and promote young looking skin, reducing the signs of aging.

Chemotherapy is one of the integral components in the management of carcinomas. Significant variation in the response rate of individual anticancer drugs, availability of different regimens, and intolerability of combination regimens necessitate observation and evaluation of cancer chemotherapy. It has been found that the ADR profile of cancer chemotherapeutics is very less reported and the situation is even worse in India. Present study was conducted to delineate the various drugs used in carcinomas to find discrepancies, if any, between the actual and the ideal prescribing pattern of psychotropic drugs, to assess prevalence of various carcinomas and to assess adverse events. This was an observational and prospective study in which chemotherapy prescriptions and data regarding adverse event (patients complain, clinician report, laboratory data) were collected from out-patient department of Medical Oncology. Their prescriptions were collected and they were screened for adverse events of grade 1-4 of CTC version 5. Descriptive analysis was done to analyse and compare the results. Most of the patients were of age group 46-60 (39.08). Gall bladder cancer was mostly found in age group 61-70. Hodgkin’s lymphoma and germ cell tumour were mostly found in younger patient. Cisplatin (15.13%), Gemcitabine (13.38%) and Carboplatin (11.40%) were mostly prescribed drugs. 20.56% of all adverse event were haematological. Most of the grade 3 adverse events were haematological. More recent developments in the availability of anticancer drugs which include molecular-targeted therapy such as targeting the proteins with abnormal expression inside the cancer cells should be utilized judiciously. Nevertheless, an early detection of these ADRs may help in minimizing the damage by either modifying the dose or changing the offending agent.

Published: September 2022

Nowadays, the advancement of technologies in the building industry may give a significant impact to the environment. The building sector contributes to the greenhouse gas emissions which may harm the environment and the high consumption of energy required high demand in burning the fossil fuel. These may effects the environment where, the carbon dioxide (CO2) has been significantly released to the atmosphere and harm the environment which may lead to global warming. In order to reduce the impact of greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption, there is a need to develop a solution which may account these environmental problems. Conserving the energy of the building is one of the strategies to reduce the impact of greenhouse gas emissions to the environment. Recently, linking the building information modelling (BIM) to analyse the energy performance of the building has been spread widely. BIM has been recognized as a suitable tool to perform a building analysis in the early design stage which helps to model the energy use, flow of thermal, patterns of lighting and many more sustainable measures. BIM is believed able to help a designer to choose the best building design due to its concept of parametric change that assist the AEC industry to implement the sustainable design in an effective way and significantly improve the energy efficiency of building.

Authors: Santos Edilene Simões Costa dos , França Denise Medina , Ramires Késia
Published: September 2022

Este artigo discute, a partir de um dispositivo didático, saberes de referência que foram produzidos para ensinar fração. Observamos que o referido dispositivo esteve presente em diferentes manuais didáticos do ensino primário, em períodos históricos distintos. Em decorrência disso, surgiu-nos a questão: de que forma os autores de manuais sistematizaram saberes para o ensino de frações apropriando-se do mesmo dispositivo didático? Foi suposto que o dispositivo poderia compor saberes de referência para a docência, saberes a ensinar e saberes para ensinar fração. Para a análise, tomou-se como parâmetros conceitos da história cultural e da linha sócio-histórica, como: cultura escolar, saber a ensinar e saber para ensinar, e dispositivo didático. Atualmente, é possível verificar que o objeto estudado mantém a mesma finalidade: ser um dispositivo didático. Entretanto, a partir da pesquisa empreendida, constatou-se que ele foi abordado para tratar de diferentes saberes inerentes à fração. Esteve articulado ao ensino de partes do todo, operações entre frações, relação entre grandezas, relação entre número fracionário e número decimal, ensino das classes de equivalência, e outros saberes a ensinar. Também foi possível compreender que saberes inerentes a ele podem ser compreendidos como vestígios de ressignificações de diferentes apropriações de autores de manuais didáticos. Assim, a investigação mostra que um dispositivo didático pode ser o meio de articular saberes a e para ensinar matemática.

Published: September 2022

Considerando o presente contexto da educação brasileira, em que a Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) é alçada à posição de núcleo das políticas educacionais, incluindo a política nacional de formação de professores, e diante dos impasses que permeiam a formação do docente de literatura, na qual ainda permanece instaurado um falso dilema entre formar especialistas ou docentes da educação básica, problematizamos, neste trabalho, aspectos do processo formativo do professor de literatura do ensino fundamental e médio a partir de perspectivas de racionalidade da formação docente. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória e documental, realizada no âmbito do curso de Doutorado em Educação da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, na qual analisamos documentos legais que estabelecem diretrizes curriculares para a formação de professores em interlocução com formulações teóricas que constituem diferentes paradigmas de racionalidade docente. Assim, com base nos modelos técnico, prático-reflexivo e crítico, apresentamos, primeiramente, questões mais gerais sobre a formação de professores e, em seguida, focamos pontos específicos da formação do licenciando em Letras e do professor de literatura atuante na educação básica. Em nossas considerações finais, evidenciamos as inegáveis contribuições da racionalidade prática, mas também destacamos a necessidade de avançarmos em direção a um paradigma crítico para a abordagem de problemas ligados à construção da identidade e do papel do professor. Dessa forma, a reflexividade e a produção de conhecimento poderão ser reafirmadas como processos fortemente implicados na docência, sem que sejam desconsiderados seu compromisso social e a percepção do processo educativo dentro de um amplo contexto histórico e político.

LOCAL ANESTHESICS
Authors: Tomasi Lorenza , Pereira Butze Juliane
Published: September 2022

Introduction: The use of local anesthetics is essential in the dental routine to perform painless procedures. Among them are lidocaine, mepivacaine, articaine, bupivacaine and prilocaine. For greater effectiveness, we found vasoconstrictors associated with these substances, which will provide greater hemostasis and anesthetic duration due to the contraction of blood vessels and less contact with the nerve fiber. Aim: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the possible adverse effects resulting from the use of local anesthetic salts during a dental procedure, mainly the presence of migraine, nausea and increased blood pressure. Methodology: This observational cross-sectional study selected patients treated at the Dental Clinic of the Centro Universitário da Serra Gaúcha-FSG between March and June 2022. Patients were submitted to questionnaires in order to find candidates compatible with the inclusion criteria of the search. Thirty patients were included, who received anesthetic salts with vasoconstrictor for the performance of procedures, and thus, blood pressure was evaluated before and after anesthesia and the signs and symptoms reported. Results: Few patients had an increase in systolic and diastolic pressure, prevailing the state of falling and stability. Only one patient received two types of anesthetic salts and he only presented an increase in blood pressure. Lidocaine was the most used substance and the one that most resulted in a drop in systolic and diastolic blood pressure. After the post-consultation questionnaire, 53% of the patients reported some type of symptom after anesthesia, predominantly tongue numbness (24%), mucosal excitement and swelling (21%) and nervousness (17%). Conclusion: From the results obtained, it can be concluded that more than half of the patients reported some type of post anesthesia symptom, but it cannot be said that these reported symptoms are directly linked to some type of adverse reaction to the anesthetic salts used, and these symptoms may be associated with fear of the procedure that would be performed or even to the poorly conducted anesthetic technique.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: Candidiasis or Candidosis are designated names designated as infectious names for fungi of the genus Candida spp., which establish a commensal relationship with the immune system when the system is depressed or by some pathogenic infections. As proposals of oral candidiasis can be hyperplastic in primary and secondary cited by the following types: pseudoplastic, erythematous, pseudomembrane, erythematous; there is a category called “lesions also associated with Candida spp.”, which includes denture stomatitis (PE). Knowing the relationship between the development of the disease and the use of dental prosthesis, the present work aims to carry out a literature review on the subject. Methodology: This is a descriptive work with a qualitative aspect of literature review, where they were used as sources of scientific and scientific research. The search platforms used were PubMed, Scielo and the Virtual Health Library. Results and discussion: The presence of devices or devices such as appliances or orthodontic appliances can provoke or modify the best of the microbiota, due to the physical-bio oral environment. In addition, the prosthesis is often related to the use of oral prostheses, such as traumatic ulcers, mucogingival hyperplasia and many oral candidiasis. One of the causes of PE is the proper use of the prosthesis, which, associated with poor hygiene, can be a factor that potentiates the disease; therefore, it is extremely important that the patient is advised about the risk of developing the condition and how to avoid it. Final considerations: The relationship between the use of dental prosthesis and the development of oral candidiasis is well related in the literature. Therefore, dental professionals must take care of patients who use the device for disease care, seeking to improve the possibility of disease development.
The reconstruction of bombed cities in Japan after the Second World War
Authors: Hasegawa Junichi
Published: September 2022

The reconstruction of bombed cities in Japan after the Second World War has recently attracted much attention and has given rise to important research in English on exceptional cases, such as Tokyo, Osaka and Hiroshima. This research shows that these cities were forced to retreat from the initial idealistic planning for reconstruction owing to pressure from central government, and that local authorities were not able to incorporate the views of ordinary people under the town planning system at that time. This paper examines the cases of eight provincial cities that were designated by the government in the late 1940s as 'model cities' of war-damage reconstruction, as they were considered to have made remarkable progress. The planned major reconstruction of the eight cities, which brought about substantial changes to their physical forms, was in most cases characterized by a wide street leading to a new square fronting the principal railway station. However, the reaction of ordinary citizens to the official reconstruction proposals often prevented their full implementation.
The structure of urban landscapes: strengthening research and practice
Authors: Whitehand J.W.R.
Published: September 2022

Methods of articulating the historico-geographical structure of urban landscapes are fundamental to urban morphology and have considerable, but insufficiently recognized, potential in planning. M. R. G. Conzen made a major contribution to their development, notably between the late 1950s and the late 1980s. He demonstrated in traditional British towns and cities how the way in which the urban landscape is historically stratified, reflecting the distinctive residues of past periods, gives rise to a hierarchy of morphological regions or urban landscape units. In the past 20 years, there have been applications and adaptations of Conzen’s methods, and demonstrations of their potential in conservation and heritage planning, in other types of urban areas and other parts of the world, including the Far East. However, it is essential that urban morphological regionalization is grounded in sensitivity to the dynamics of the urban landscape and, especially in comparisons of different urban areas, that there is awareness of the level of resolution at which urban landscape units are delimited. Carefully applied, this method can make an important contribution to meeting a major challenge facing urban morphology today: the provision of sound bases for comparative research and its application in planning practice.
Evolving suburban form: dispersion or recentralization?
Authors: Filion Pierre
Published: September 2022

Transformations in both the approach to suburban growth expressed in planning documents and the reality of suburban development are examined. The North American suburban model, characterized by near universal reliance on the automobile, abundant land consumption, rigorous functional specialization and a dispersal of employment, retail and services, was pieced together between the late 1940s and the early 1960s. While plans from this period concentrated on the infrastructure and regulatory fundamentals of this emerging model, subsequent plans expressed growing disenchantment with this form of development, culminating in the formulation of a new vision of the suburb that breaks with the early post-war model. Examination of a Toronto suburban transect, with layers of development dating from the late 1940s to the present, reveals a mismatch between the profound suburban transformations proposed in plans and actual suburban form. The paper concludes with an assessment of the relative importance of land-use inertia and change. The possibility of an intensified, recentralized suburb that is less automobile dependent is considered.

Morphogenetic analysis of architectural elements within the townscape
Authors: Sanders Paul S. , Woodward Sarah A.
Published: September 2022

When a new form is inserted in an existing townscape, its consonance within the urban fabric is dependent on the level of attention paid to the evaluation and management of its architectural elements. However, despite the established principles and methods of urban morphology that enable the systematic analysis of the built environment, a formula for ensuring that new development relates to its context so as to achieve congruent outcomes is still lacking. This paper proposes a new method of evaluating and measuring architectural elements within evolving urban forms, with particular emphasis on a three-dimensional study of buildings. In a case study, detailed mapping of both current and past forms provides the basis for evincing predominant characteristics that have changed over time. Using this method, it is possible to demonstrate objectively how the townscape has been affected through changes in its architectural configuration.
Urban design principles of the original neighbourhood concepts
Authors: Patricios Nicholas N.
Published: September 2022

The neighbourhood concept is arguably one of the major planning landmarks that shaped the urban form of the twentieth-century city in many countries. Coincidently, both the neighbourhood idea of Clarence Stein and Henry Wright, exemplified in their plan for Radburn, and the neighbourhood unit idea of Clarence Perry were published in 1929. The urban design principles of Stein and Wright included the idea of a superblock of residential units grouped around a central green, the separation of vehicles and pedestrians, and a road hierarchy with culs-de-sac for local access roads. A cluster of superblocks was to form a self-contained neighbourhood. A group of neighbourhoods would then comprise the city. For Perry the physical arrangement of the elementary school, small parks and playgrounds, and local shops was the basis of his neighbourhood idea. Each neighbourhood was to be a `unit' of the city. Briefly outlined are the deviations from the original ideas made subsequently by numerous architects, planners, developers, and bureaucrats. This article re-examines the intentions of Stein and Wright and Perry and the sources of their ideas to recover the principles of the original concepts that have become obscured over the decades.
To Tell to Survive –a Phenomenological Analysis of the Social Communication of Four Sent-Away-Children based on their autobiographical narratives
Authors: Elbeshausen Hans
Published: September 2022

The stories of survival show how people who were exposed to various forms of social control and institutional violence as children and adolescents had to struggle with the consequences of these assaults for decades. The narrators of the storiesof survival are former sent-away-children who stayed in convalescent homes between 1950 and 1970; they document their experiences and their struggle for respect in their personal environment and for public recognition in the volume Heimweh –Verschickungskinder erzählen. The aim of the study. Based on a psychoanalytically inspired narrative concept, the article explores the question how the narrators are able to tell a story about their lives as their own and authentic life story. Research methods and techniques. This presupposes that not only experiences accessible to memory, but also repressed and pre-linguistic experiences have to be included in life story narration. Results and discussion. Pivotal categories of analysis are the terms “turning point” (Wendepunkte) and “threshold experience” (Schwellenerfahrungen). Four finished and completed narratives have been selected for analysis –two in which repressed experiences have found entry in the story telling, and two in which the struggle with remembering still is ongoing. Methodologically, I worked with a process of sense making (IPA) that reflects the subjectivity of all persons involved in the analysis, their previous experiences, their self-understandings and their theoretical assumptions, thereby disclosing their experiential space. Conclusions.An interesting finding of the analysis is that a) the level of violence experienced in the recovery homes cannot be considered as the only cause of repression and language disruption; b) children and adolescentswho had already developed resilience skills in their life history before their stay in the recovery homes were better able to resist the adversities in the recovery homes.Keywords: Sent-Away-Children; life story; repression and language destruction; remembering; resilience skills.
The Normative Dimension of Securitization as a Strategic Crisis Communication Theory.Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic in Central & Eastern Europe
Authors: Lukacovic Marta Natalia
Published: September 2022

The aim of the study. This article aims to advance the development of the normative dimension of securitization as strategic crisis communication theory. Securitization is a powerful persuasive tool because it builds an argument that an existential threat is looming and extraordinary measures should be employed to counter it (Buzan et al., 1998; Vultee in Balzacq, 2010; Watson, 2012). Research methods and techniques. The theorization in this article is based on an analysis exploring a set of cases of Slovakia’s counter-pandemic measures during the first two years of the COVID-19 outbreak in the country. Results and discussion. The case study of Slovakiais informative because the instances there reflect a broader array of problems that are experienced across various global societies; for example, a failure to introduce measures that are inclusive of the marginalized people in terms of ethno-racial discrimination or digital disparities. The analysis helps to extract a set of practical recommendations that aim to craft ethically-sound securitized discourses for persuasive purposes during crises. The framework proposed by Floyd (2011; 2019) is used as the main scaffold for normative securitization and is further enhanced by the relevant ethics standards of the strategic communication field, leading to the introduced lineup of recommendations. Conclusions. The author provides recommendations for the use of securitization methods: 1) establishing the causes of securitization (determining the cause of the threat to a particular type of security; establishing a clear and transparent set of guidelines to consistently determine which frame is reasonably superior to another frame (s)); 2) taking into account the reference object of securitization (inclusion of all victims and groups; establishing a clear and transparent set of guidelines for determining the consequences of non-human entities and concepts from a regulatory point of view).Keywords:securitization, strategic crisis communication theory, normative communication theory, COVID-19 communication, pandemic communication, Slovakia

Basic Health Research Report shows that an average prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in urban areas is 5.7% in the population aged over 15 years. Many studies have been conducted to explore the pharmacological effects of snake fruit skin as different preparations against DM. In this study, the effect of snake fruit skin extract (SFSE) on body weight and blood glucose levels induced by alloxan was tested on 25 male Wistar rats. All rats were initially induced with 5% alloxan (150 mg/kg BW) then after 48 hours were grouped into: control (Na-CMC 0.5%), standard (Metformin), SFSE-I (60 mg/200 gBW), SFSE -II (120 mg/200 gBW), and SFSE-III (240 mg/200 gBW). The treatment was given for 14 days. The results showed that the tendency for the highest blood glucose levels of about 333 mg/dl (after 28 days of treatment) was found in the control group, followed by SFSE-I (222 mg/dl), -II (205 mg/dl), -III (138 mg/dl), and the lowest in the standard group was about 129 mg/dl. Hence, it can be concluded that SFSE which has the best antihyperglycemic effect was obtained with the highest dose of 240 mg/200 gBW.

Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar os conceitos e diretrizes das crenças e os valores dos professores de educação infantil sobre o tema da relação entre socialização, desenvolvimento e educação infantil. Por fim, considera a importância do trabalho colaborativo entre psicologia e educação visando estimular e formar as competências dos professores, com foco na construção cotidiana de ambientes escolares permeados pela interação social construtiva.

A liberdade em Epicteto
Authors: Da Luz Diogo
Published: September 2022

A concepção de mundo estoica é fundamentada por uma rede causal de relações determinadas pela natureza. O destino faz parte dessas relações, problematizando a questão da liberdade num ambiente determinista. Levando em consideração esse legado teórico, Epicteto coloca a liberdade nas escolhas do indivíduo em relação a essas determinações que ele atribui à providência divina.
O que é a liberdade para Epicteto
Authors: Tarquínio Antonio Carlos
Published: September 2022

A kátharsis e a phrónesis presentes no Fedão de Platão, reaparecem levemente modificadas na filosofia de Epicteto. A kátharsis, à guisa de desprendimento do corpo tendo por principal instrumento a prohaíresis. A phrónesis, ao modo de contemplação do governo do mundo. O desprendimento corpóreo unido à contemplação do governo do mundo constitui o caminho de conquista da liberdade (eleuthería) em sentido epictetiano.
