Common mental health disorders in general practice
Authors: Hardy Sheila
Published: January 2018

Practice nurses are likely to see a range of common mental health disorders in day-to-day practice. Sheila Hardy provides an overview of these conditions and the treatment their patients will be offered

Common mental health disorders cause human distress and large costs for society. According to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, common mental health disorders include depression, generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Practice nurses will see many patients with common mental health disorders and, while not every nurse will be involved in treatment, it is useful to have brief knowledge of the available treatment options. In this article, the definitions and treatments of each disorder are described, and the responsibilities of health professionals looking after people with common mental health disorders in primary care are explained.
Association of the Occurrence of Ant Species (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) with Soil Attributes, Vegetation, and Climate in the Brazilian Savanna Northeastern Region
Authors: Silva Edison Fernandes da , Corá José Eduardo , Harada Ana Yoshi , Sampaio Ivan Barbosa Machado
Published: January 2018

Ants occur in all strata of tropical forest by nesting, foraging and interacting with plants and other resident in these habitats. It is know that a large number of ant species live in the leaflitter and soil. This study aim to know if the occurrence of the species of ants from Cerrado of the Northeastern State of Maranhão depends on the attributes of soils and climatic factors. We found 48 species of ants, and ten of them had highest importance value, and are correlated with the soil properties, litter biomass, basal area, humidity and temperature, by using principal component analysis (PCA). The soil properties (density, porosity, particle size, aggregate stability index, and levels of Mg2+, Ca2+, carbon and potential acidity); vegetation (basal area and dry mass of litter) and temperature and humidity at soil level affect the occurrence of the following ants species Camponotus comatulus Mackay, 2010, Ectatomma muticum Mayr, 1870, Pseudomyrmex boopis (Roger, 1863), Pseudomyrmex termitarius (Smith, 1855), Dinoponera gigantea (Peerty, 1833), Ochetomyrmex neopolitus Fernández, 2003, Crematogaster cf acuta, Pheidole casta Wheeler, 1908, Solenopsis bruesi Creighton, 1930 and Solenopsis.

Social wasp richness and species distributions among ecosystem types in Minas Gerais, Brazil
Authors: Souza Marcos Magalhães de , Brunismann Ângela Gomes , Clemente Mateus Aparecido
Published: January 2018

The state of Minas Gerais has high biodiversity, characterized by strong ecosystem heterogeneity that favors high richness of social wasps. There are currently 109 species known to occur in the state, however, there is lack of information concerning the distribution of these social insects among different ecosystems. The objective of this study was to evaluate social wasp species richness and distributions by ecosystem, thereby generating data for use in discerning relevant and priority environments for vespid conservation in Minas Gerais. We evaluated articles, theses, and dissertations published up to the year 2016 containing data on biodiversity of social wasps in natural and agricultural environments. We found 18 studies, in which the highest reported species richness was in semideciduous seasonal forest (n = 68), followed by Cerrado (n = 53), ombrophilous forest (n = 39), deciduous seasonal forest, and campos rupestres (n = 35). The lowest richness was reported in mixed forest (n = 21) and high-altitude fields (n = 19). Considering the high degree of landscape diversity of the state of Minas Gerais, more studies are needed to accurately assess social wasp diversity in these ecosystems, especially Cerrado. Ombrophilous and deciduous forests should be considered strongly relevant for these social insects, especially the Rio Doce State Park and the Rio Pandeiros Wildlife Refuge.
Independent colony foundation in Paraponera clavata (Hymenoptera, Formicidae): First workers lay trophic eggs to feed queen’s larvae
Authors: Peeters Christian
Published: January 2018

Paraponera clavata Smith is a large, notorious, and widely distributed ant, yet its colony founding behavior is poorly known. In the laboratory, a dealate queen collected from Peru reared a first generation of ten adult workers over 18 months; eight cocoons and several larvae failed. Food was obtained outside the nest and given to larvae. It took five and six months before the first two workers emerged, and they were smaller than average (i.e.‘nanitic’). At Q+4, trophic eggs were laid by workers and given directly to medium and mature larvae on three occasions. Six workers were dissected immediately after the queen’s death, and five had yolky oocytes in their ovaries. Queen foraging is known from anecdotal field observations, despite the prothorax (and corresponding neck muscles) being smaller than in other poneroid queens.
Elizabeth Eisenstein as an agent of change in the field of media ecology
Authors: Strate Lance
Published: January 2018

This article discusses Elizabeth Eisenstein’s contributions to the field of media ecology, insofar as she provides an in-depth examination of one of the most pivotal innovations in human history, the printing press with movable type attributed to Johann Gutenberg. Whereas Marshall McLuhan emphasized changes in sense ratios, Eisenstein examines the shift resulting from individuals having more access to written works and greater ability to distribute them. Some of her key points include the importance of job printing; the role of print in time-binding, preservation of knowledge and culture, and novelty and discovery; how publication was associated with publicity and fame; how the printing revolution preserved the Renaissance that immediately preceded it, served as the foundation for the Protestant Reformation and was associated with the origins of modern science.

Voices from the Field: Regional Nurses Speak About Motivations, Careers and How to Entice Others to Pursue Mental Health Nursing
Authors: Penman Joy , Martinez Lee , Papoulis Debra , Cronin Kathryn
Published: January 2018

The aims of this study are three-fold: determine the factors that motivate nurses to pursue mental health nursing; identify the strategies that might attract nursing students and practising nurses to pursue mental health nursing as a professional career; and identify the difficulties of nurses in achieving their preferred clinical specialty.

A descriptive qualitative study design with semi-structured interviews was used. Fifteen mental health nurses from rural and regional South Australia were interviewed. Interviews were transcribed verbatim, and thematic analysis was undertaken.

Of the fifteen participants, thirteen were females and two were males; their average age was 50 years. The factors that motivated the participants to pursue mental health nursing were categorized as intrinsic and extrinsic. There were many strategies that might attract nursing students and nurses to the field, but the most popular suggestion was the provision of high quality meaningful clinical placements. Other strategies were to convey the personal satisfaction derived from being a mental health nurse, promote mental health nursing aggressively, and provide employment incentives. The study also highlighted the importance of addressing stigma, and greater education and support for nurses to pursue a mental health career.
“… so etwas wie Leiblichkeit.”
Authors: Carr David
Published: January 2018

In manuscripts from the 1920s Husserl elaborates on what in the Cartesian Meditations he calls “personalities of a higher order.” We might expect the founder of phenomenology to be suspicious of this idea, considering it a mere façon de parler. In fact, Husserl strongly endorses this notion, borrowing the term Gemeingeist from the German Idealists, and defending it against attempts by empirical psychologists to reduce everything to individuals. He attributes to certain forms of community not only personality but also subjectivity, consciousness, unity of consciousness, convictions, memory, and even “so etwas wie Leiblichkeit” - something like corporality. It is this last notion that I want to explore in this paper: what would such communal corporality be like? “We-intentionality” is much discussed these days among phenomenologists. Can we attribute corporality to it, and if so, how? I will consider possible answers to this question, not limiting myself to what Husserl says.
On Bodily Resonance
Authors: Eberlein Undine
Published: January 2018

This paper is intended to outline both a special field of somatic inquiry concerning bodily communication and resonance and a theoretical approach combining concepts from the philosophical discourse of “Leibphänomenologie” (“phenomenology of the sensing body”) with empirical participant research on bodily practices in somatics and modern dance. Since both the field of inquiry and the theoretical approach are not yet well established, but rather a work in progress, the paper will focus on the delineation of some theoretical conjectures and conceptual propositions, a few empirical observations, and open questions.
Aesthetic Turn
Authors: Feger Hans
Published: January 2018

That which I always already am, without having to do it - the transcendental status of corporeality - is prefigured in Nietzsche’s theory, according to which every authentic philosophy is first of all to be thought “under the guidance of the body.” Nietzsche criticized philosophy’s forgetting of the living body long before a phenomenological difference was made between the living body and the dimensional body; he proposed that thinking be based on differences and not on oppositions. This turn toward the living body in philosophy can be described as a turn of aesthetics. As a discipline, aesthetics had originated as a theory of sensual perception. Through Nietzsche, it discovered the space of the living and feeling body as the foundational basis for philosophical knowledge.
Bodily Dasein and Chinese Script Components
Authors: Tze-wan Kwan
Published: January 2018

In the Shuowen, one of the earliest comprehensive character dictionaries of ancient China, when discussing where the Chinese characters derive their structural components, Xu Shen proposed the dual constitutive principle of “adopting proximally from the human body, and distally from things around.” This dual emphasis of “body” and “things around” corresponds largely to the phenomenological issues of body or corporeality on the one hand, and lifeworld on the other. If we borrow Heidegger’s definition of Dasein as Being-in-the world, we can easily arrive at a reformulation of Xu Shen’s constitutive principle of the Chinese script as one that concerns “bodily Dasein.” By looking into various examples of script tokens we can further elaborate on how the Chinese make use not only of the body in general but various body parts, and how they differentiate their life world into material nature, living things, and a multifaceted world of equipment in forming a core basis of Chinese characters/components, upon which further symbolic manipulation such as “indication”, “phonetic borrowing”, semantic combination, and “annotative derivation”, etc. can be based. Finally, examples will be cited to show how in the Chinese scripts the human body (and its parts) might interact with other’s bodies (and their parts) or with “things around” (whether nature, living creatures, or artifacts) in various ways to cover the social, environmental, ritual, technical, economical, and even intellectual aspects of human experience. Bodily Dasein, so to speak, provides us with a new perspective of understanding and appreciating the entire scope of the Chinese script.
Detection of Near Falls Using Wearable Devices: A Systematic Review
Authors: Pang Ivan , Okubo Yoshiro , Sturnieks Daina , Lord Stephen R. , Brodie Matthew A.
Published: January 2018

Background and Purpose:

Falls among older people are a serious health issue. Remote detection of near falls may provide a new way to identify older people at high risk of falling. This could enable exercise and fall prevention programs to target the types of near falls experienced and the situations that cause near falls before fall-related injuries occur. The purpose of this systematic review was to summarize and critically examine the evidence regarding the detection of near falls (slips, trips, stumbles, missteps, incorrect weight transfer, or temporary loss of balance) using wearable devices.

Methods:

CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Compendex, and Inspec were searched to obtain studies that used a wearable device to detect near falls in young and older people with or without a chronic disease and were published in English.

Results:

Nine studies met the final inclusion criteria. Wearable sensors used included accelerometers, gyroscopes, and insole force inducers. The waist was the most common location to place a single device. Both high sensitivity (≥85.7%) and specificity (≥90.0%) were reported for near-fall detection during various clinical simulations and improved when multiple devices were worn. Several methodological issues that increased the risk of bias were revealed. Most studies analyzed a single or few near-fall types by younger adults in controlled laboratory environments and did not attempt to distinguish naturally occurring near falls from actual falls or other activities of daily living in older people.

Conclusions:

The use of a single lightweight sensor to distinguish between different types of near falls, actual falls, and activities of daily living is a promising low-cost technology and clinical tool for long-term continuous monitoring of older people and clinical populations at risk of falls. However, currently the evidence is limited because studies have largely involved simulated laboratory events in young adults. Future studies should focus on validating near-fall detection in larger cohorts and include data from (i) people at high risk of falling, (ii) activities of daily living, (iii) both near falls and actual falls, and (iv) naturally occurring near falls.
Preaching Conservation to Andean Pentecostal Communities: A Case of Engaging Key Stakeholders of Religious Communities in Peruvian Tropical Forests
Authors: Gonzalez Oscar
Published: January 2018

In Latin America, Pentecostal churches have an important presence in local Andean communities. I explored the opinions that rural people of the Pentecostal faith in the Peruvian Andes have on nature and conservation and tested the Evangelical principle of Creation Care as an effective method to approach them and get them interested in conservation issues. I attended special meetings of rural Pentecostal churches in Huanuco, Peru, in 2012 and 2013; the congregations allowed me to share the importance of nature conservation, and Creation Care facilitated this communication. I discuss the details of one of the events where I participated as an invited speaker to talk about nature conservation. For those who wish to foster a dialogue with Pentecostals and Evangelical residents of the Andes on the rationale for environmental stewardship, I recommend becoming familiar with the principle of Creation Care and looking for its application in specific environmental problems of the region.

“Euro Sustainability”: Five Policy Proposals to Make the Euro Sustainable for the European Economy
Authors: Capuano Giuseppe
Published: January 2018

The provided economic analysis and the economic policy proposed in this article are the natural verifications and continuations of a research that was started with the author’s described theory in Single Currency, Economic Development and Local Economies. A Critical Analysis of the Economic Policy of the Euro (1998). He emphasized the presence of important critical factors on the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) which, if not solved, would undermine its existence; however, the importance of EMU’s policy was not questioned. This article offers a sustainability strategy of the Euro, called a “push investment approach,” which provides complementary public and private investment, strengthens the euro area governance and gradually eliminates the Maastricht criteria. Furthermore, the policy makes the Euro sustainable for all the acceding countries, constitutes development as well as the competitive factor and it is not critical to enterprises.
Profit Efficiency in Lithuanian Credit Unions – a DEA Approach
Authors: Kėdaitis Vytautas , Baležentis Tomas , Valkauskas Romualdas , Mikučionytė Žymantė
Published: January 2018

The paper proceeds by discussing the different definitions of credit unions. The research focuses on the efficiency of the credit unions in Lithuania. Indeed, efficiency is the degree to which the rational use of limited economic resources is ensured. More specifically, we focus on the economic efficiency of the credit unions.The methodology that is followed in the paper comprises the measures of cost and profit efficiency. Further on, profit efficiency is defined in terms of both standard profit efficiency and alternate profit efficiency. The measures of efficiency are implemented via the data envelopment analysis (DEA). The frontier model comprises the two outputs and the three inputs. The calculations confirm the operationality of the proposed methodology for rating credit unions according to the efficiency of their activity.

Efecto de cuatro densidades de siembra en el rendimiento agrícola del frijo común (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Authors: Calero Hurtado Alexander , Castillo Yoander , Quintero Elieni , Pérez Yanery , Olivera Dilier
Published: January 2018

La densidad de siembra consiste en mejorar la distribución de las semillas en el espacio, para incrementar los rendimientos. La mayoría de los productores de frijol utilizan densidades inadecuadas y por debajo de las recomendadas. Para comprobar esto, se ejecutó un experimento en la Empresa Agroindustrial de Granos de Sancti Spíritus “Valle Caonao”, de noviembre de 2016 a febrero de 2017, sobre un suelo Ferralítico Rojo lixiviado. La siembra del cultivar “Buenaventura”, se realizó de forma mecanizada, para ajustar las cuatro densidades de siembra siguientes: 160000, 180000, 200000 y 220000 plantas ha-1. Los indicadores morfofisiológicos determinados fueron: el promedio de hojas, altura promedio de las plantas, masa fresca (g plantas-1), promedio de vainas por plantas, promedio de granos por vainas, masa de 100 granos (g 100 semillas-1) y rendimiento (t ha-1). Los resultados indicaron el efecto positivo de las densidades de siembra sobre los indicadores morfofisiológicos y de rendimiento del grano de frijol. Los mejores resultados fueron logrados por la densidad de 200000 plantas por hectáreas e incrementó la productividad en 1,97, 0,38 y 1,29 t ha-1, con respecto a las demás densidades evaluadas y superó la producción media nacional en 1,89 t ha-1.

Authors: Murphy David , Gill Nina , Coombs Alan , Rooney Rebecca , Fukuta Junaid , Reynolds Timothy , Morgan Justin
Published: January 2018

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. BackgroundVerbal communication is an important element to clinical practice and an integral part of undergraduate medical education. The oral case presentation (OCP) is often used in professional verbal communication and remains commonplace in the clinical setting. The OCP additionally has a complex role in undergraduate teaching.MethodsWe designed a OCP curriculum taking into account reasoning, rhetorical and linguistic mechanisms. Delivered through a content and drama workshop involving a trained theatre actor to 45 pre-clinical, undergraduate medical students at our U.K. institution. Students were assessed objectively at weekly intervals by trained faculty. A paired t-test was performed to determine if the curriculum was effective in increasing OCP scores. Students' confidence was assessed using Likert scales.FindingsAn overall mean score improvement (M=20.3, SD 14.6, N=45) was significantly greater than zero, t (44) =9.3, two tail p <0.05, providing evidence that the curriculum was effective. A 95% confidence interval around the mean difference in score was 15.9-24.7. Confidence scores for both non-verbal and verbal elements of the OCP improved.ConclusionThis curriculum led to an improvement in OCP scores and increased our students 'confidence with this modality of communication. Consideration should be given to incorporating dedicated teaching of the OCP in undergraduate education.

Обсуждение: в статье авторы отмечают, что на современном этапе недостаточно исследованы вопросы формирования и развития концепции финансовых отношений в АПК. Существующая в настоящее время проблема формирования концепции финансовых отношений требует своего решения в связи с вступлением России в ВТО и экономическими санкциями Запада против России. В процессе поведенного исследования авторы приходят к выводу, что в концепции должны быть учтены современные тенденции развития АПК, опыт и процессы, характерные для мирового сельского хозяйства.

Результаты: автором развиты теоретические положения и разработаны практические рекомендации по созданию концепции финансовых отношений в АПК региона, которые могут быть применены при разработке государственных программ и подготовке нормативно-правовых актов на федеральном, региональном и местном уровнях.
Plasmid DNAs designed for expression in Micromonas CCMP1545 v1
Authors: Guo Jian , Worden Alexandra , Hartzog Grant , Manuel Ares and
Published: January 2018

We have available several plasmids designed for expression of Cas9, guide RNA, chloramphenicol acetyl-transferase, GFP, and beta-lactamase in Micromonas CCMP1545. For protein expression we used the promotor and 3' end elements from the endogenous RPS9 gene, and codon optimized the coding region. For expression of guide RNAs we used the Micromonas U6 snRNA promoter. DNA is available by contacting M. Ares . We have constructed and sequence verified 9 plasmids which we would like to make available to others attempting to detect transformation of DNA into Micromonas. Using the CCMP1545genome as a source for the U6 promoter sequence, and for the promoter and 3' UTR sequences of ribosomal protein RPS9, we built the following plasmids: CRISPR/Cas9 plasmids for Micromonas 1. Mp U6 promoter driving Bae cassette for guide RNA expression inpUC13 2. Mp RPS9-Cas9SV40-RPS9 in pUC13 3. BothMp U6 promoter driving Bae cassette for guide RNA expression andMp RPS9-Cas9SV40-RPS9 in pUC13 These first three plasmids were anticipated to enable stable incorporation of transgenes at specific genomic locations. BaeI is a type IIS restriction enzyme that leaves noncompatible sticky ends. In the context of the gRNA cassette, a pair of 24 nt oligos designed to have the sticky ends compatible with BaeI cleaved plasmid are annealed and cloned into the plasmid, replacing the BaeI cassette while adding the 20 nt target complementary sequence of the desired guide RNA.

Published: January 2018

Geleneksel
olarak doküman veya cümle seviyesinde yürütülen duygu analizi çalışmaları,
hedef tabanlı duygu analizi çalışmalarının ortaya çıkması ile yeni bir seviyeye
taşınmıştır. Hedef tabanlı duygu analizi (Aspect
based sentiment analysis) kısaca, bir metnin içinde yer alan farklı
duyguların ilgili oldukları hedef varlıklar ile birlikte tespit edilmesi olarak
tanımlanabilir. Güncel tanımlamalar, hedef tabanlı duygu analizini, üç temel
alanla (hedef terim, hedef kategori ve duygu sınıfı) temsil edilen duygu
tanımlama gruplarını belirlemeyi amaçlayan aşamalı bir görev olarak
betimlemektedir. Bu makalede,  Türkçe
hedef tabanlı duygu analizi konusunda yapılan incelemeler sunulmaktadır. Yürütülen
çalışmalar, ABSA 2016 yarışmasındaki görevler (1- Hedef kategori belirleme, 2-
Hedef terim belirleme, 3- Hedef kategori ve hedef terimin aynı anda
belirlenmesi ve 4- Duygu sınıfı belirleme) takip edilerek tasarlanmış ve yine
burada sağlanan Türkçe restoran yorumları veri kümesi üzerinde değerlendirilmişlerdir.
Hedef kategori, hedef terim ve ikisinin aynı anda belirlenmesi görevleri için,
kelime vektörleri (word vectors) ve doğal dil işleme çıktıları (sözcük ve cümle
analizi bilgileri) kullanan koşullu rastgele alanlara (CRF – conditional random
fields) dayalı bir dizilim etiketleme algoritması tasarlanmış ve her üç görevi
de tek aşamada çözebildiği gösterilmiştir. 
Elde edilen sonuçlar ile bu ilk üç görev için literatürdeki en yüksek
başarımların elde edildiği görülmüştür: Hedef kategori belirlemede %66,7
F1-skoru, hedef terim belirleme %53,2 F1-skoru, hedef kategori ve hedef terimin
aynı anda belirlenmesinde %46,7 F1-skoru. Bunun yanı sıra, duygu sınıfı
belirleme için cümle analizi sonucunda hedef terime yakın kelimelerden özellik
seçimine dayalı bir lineer sınıflandırma yöntemi sunulmuş ve literatürde sınırlı
sistemler tarafından raporlanan en başarılı sonuç (%76,1 F1-skoru) elde
edilmiştir.

processed by products of canning and fish siege through purification process. The result of purification
with one process was not satisfy yet for the parameter oxidation quality fulfillment aspect. Therefore, fish
oil by products of fish encircling need to be purified more intensively, such as stratified purification one of
them through the process of stratified purification. The aim of this study was to improve the quality of fish
oil by-product through stratified purification. The multilevel purification of once purification (P1), twice
purification (P2), and three times purification (P3) gives varying results on physical properties, oxidation
parameters, and fatty acid profiles. The color of the brightest fish oil was found in sample P2, the lowest
density was found in sample P3 (0.63 g /cm3), the highest yield was in P1 sample (44.42%), FFA was lowest
in P3 sample (0.37%), The lowest PV in the P1 sample (25.59 meq / kg), the lowest TOTOX in the P1 sample
(48.11 meq / kg), and the highest PUFA content in the fatty acid composition found in sample P2 (37.02%).
Purified sardine oil extracted from by products of fish stamping by three-stage purification, FFA parameters
are able to meet the criteria of IFOS 2014 standards, while for PV, AnV, and TOTOX parameters are able to

O dilema das relações internacionais sob a ascensão de Roma no Mediterrâneo, 350-200 a.C.
Authors: Scopacasa Rafael
Published: January 2018

A expansão da hegemonia romana no Mediterrâneo nos oferece um interessante estudo de caso para explorar a transição de uma anarquia para uma hierarquia internacional. Até que ponto, e de que maneira, a ascensão hegemônica romana (séculos IV-III a.C.) alterou a conduta dos Estados italianos, os primeiros a sentir os efeitos da supremacia romana? De que modo esses Estados reagiram às profundas mudanças no sistema internacional provocadas pela ascensão de Roma? Para abordar essas questões, é necessário seguirmos os relatos historiográficos de Políbio (200-120 a.C.) e Tito Lívio (59 a.C. – AD 17), cujas narrativas sobre a expansão romana inicial são as únicas que nos chegaram relativamente completas. Será proposto que, apesar de encontrarem-se subordinados à nova supremacia romana no século III a.C., muitos Estados italianos continuaram agindo como se fossem unidades autônomas e independentes no plano internacional.
Moving Labyrinths: Virgil’s Art of Multiple Narrative
Authors: Ahl Frederick
Published: January 2018

Na Eneida, Virgílio cria um labirinto semântico complexo, no qual múltiplas tradições, cada uma pertencendo a um contexto mítico e histórico separado, são elaboradas no que parece ser uma narrativa nova única. Esta nova narrativa está em constante diálogo com seus elementos constitutivos, culminando, assim, em uma geografia de espaço e tempo einsteineana paradoxalmente instável. Nem os leitores nem o herói Enéas podem estar seguros de como se posicionar para compreender o que é visto ou experimentado. Ademais, como mostra a narrativa de Virgílio sobre Dédalo, 1 I owe special thanks to Maria Cecília de Miranda Nogueira Coelho, whose invitation, o primeiro, como o segundo, não apenas se torna um criador e prisioneiro dos labirintos que constrói, mas também induz o leitor a colaborar na sua criação (e na sua fuga).
Aporias nas relações entre tempo e movimento nas Confissões (XI-XII)
Authors: Di Silva Maurizio Filippo
Published: January 2018

O objetivo deste artigo é o de esboçar as aporias concernentes à relação entre tempo e movimento assim como aparecem nos livros XI e XII das Confessiones de Agostinho. Tendo em vista tal fim, na primeira fase desta pesquisa, analisar-se-á o problema da relação entre tempo e moto com base na interpretação agostiniana das palavras In principio fecit Deus, do primeiro versículo da Gênese. Em seguida, no segundo momento, verificar-se-á o problema de se a matéria ou a forma é a condição da existência do tempo e do movimento, segundo a interpretação agostiniana das palavras caelum et terram de Gênese 1,1. Por fim, nas conclusões, examinar-se-á se as questões mencionadas são autênticas aporias ou se elas exprimem os limites da compreensão humana da autoridade divina (Confessiones, VI).
