Full textAbstract:
Activists need to construct and manage multiple identities as activists, as well as negotiate their activist identities in relation to identity positions in other social realms such as paid work or parenting. This research is an empirical application of Melucci's concept of metamorphosis to the processes through which committed activists manage identity work. Metamorphosis facilitates an understanding of how activists maintain a sense of continuity through changes in identity. From life-history interviews with twenty long-term Australian activists this research operationalizes the four concepts associated with metamorphosis: being present or "in the moment," taking responsibility for action, being reflexive, and having a rhythm for managing the identity process. The analysis of these concepts demonstrates the need to extend understandings of identity to incorporate non-instrumental aspects of cognition, such as emotion, the body, and passion. These facilitate an activist's capacity to metamorphose, and therefore manage various aspects of identity construction. Activism is therefore sustained when activists can maintain their passionate participation in creating social change, regardless of circumstances, rather than simply enhancing their commitment to a particular organization.

Full textAbstract:
In Book XV of Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Pythagoras meditates on the rise and fall of cities and foresees that the survival of Rome requires turning from war to the “arts of peace.” Once ancient Rome has fallen, its urban imagery hybridizes with a Biblical counter-imagery in which God wills the ruination of Rome and other centers of wickedness. Through this Ovidian/Pythagorean lens, this essay then examines how Spenser confronts the fall and rise and possible fall again of early modern London, with glances also at Shakespeare and Dryden. This Ovidian model creates challenges of identity, belief, and ethical obligation that result in an “outward turn” of the theme of metamorphosis toward its social boundary.

AbstractIn the recent decades, we have witnessed a change of paradigm, from the national to the European paradigm, one that is not centered on the national culture but on the values of the united Europe. The symbols, values and traditions of EU increase its visibility and contribute to a unifying European identity. However, this identity is not a single entity but a composite of multiple, integrated elements, that are subject to continuous change. For citizens from different countries to assimilate and identify with the European creed, continuous transformations and adjustments are taking place, process in which some elements are enhanced, while others suffer transformations. The third millennium was often described by experts as the era of intercultural communication as intercultural dialogue is the territory in which cultural identity is constantly redefined and negotiated. Now that mass media has pushed further the frontiers of knowledge and that our world has become, as predicted by Marshall McLuhan, a “global village”, the issue that we are confronted with in times of crises is whether the world is really a true village, connected by such principles as solidarity, peace, harmony, love, or rather a jungle where only the fittest and strongest cultures will survive?

Full textAbstract:
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel SuperiorThis dissertation is about a study to understand the identity metamorphosis of those who lived in shelters. It used the life story narrative methodology, so the subject of this research could tell his story. The empirical material of this study is about the narrative of a person we will call Davi. The construction of this dissertation text was divided in three big moments: first, it was realized a bibliographic study about the production and discussions about this theme, and, from there, was built the first chapter, a historical contextualization about the theme, that conforms an explanation of the practices and policies of the residential care for children and adolescents over the history of Brazil until nowadays. The second part shows the theoretical discussion that supports this dissertation. In this sense, it was brought the discussions about identity proposed by Ciampa (1987), and their updates, with collaborations of Almeida (2005) and Lima (2010), besides others Critical Social Psychology authors. The last part is about Daviâs narrative story, as well as the analysis and discussions built from it. In this stage, an attempt was made to interweave the two moments before the narrative, like the threads of a fabric that intertwine between the plot and the warp. Daviâs story sets the singularity of a life full of struggle, in the constant search of building his autonomy. He lived in the shelter throughout his childhood and returned to his family when he was 10-years-old, after 7 years without getting in touch with them. After returning to his family, he had to work since he was a little boy to help to sustain his home, as well as asking for money at traffic lights and living in the streets sometimes. Throughout his story, some other characters appear: the caregiver-responsible-for-the-family, who shows up during his childhood, the worker-scrap-collector-boy and the traffic-light-juggler-boy, the graffiti, the rap-song-writer, the hip-hop-culture-dancer, the athlete, the husband-and-family-father, the social-educator, the advertising-person and the activist-for-the-rights-of-children-and-adolescents. Davi reports a story of struggle for the construction of his autonomy, a story that, although singular, expresses so many other silenced stories of people who live or lived in shelters.
Esta dissertaÃÃo trata de um estudo que visou compreender as metamorfoses da identidade de quem viveu em situaÃÃo de abrigamento. Para tanto, recorremos à metodologia de narrativa de histÃria de vida, a fim de que o sujeito participante da pesquisa pudesse narrar sua histÃria. Deste modo, o material empÃrico deste estudo refere-se à narrativa de uma pessoa chamada aqui de Davi. A construÃÃo do texto da dissertaÃÃo foi organizada em trÃs grandes momentos: primeiro foi realizado um estudo bibliogrÃfico acerca das produÃÃes e discussÃes sobre o tema, e, a partir disso, construÃmos o primeiro capÃtulo, que se constitui de uma contextualizaÃÃo histÃrica acerca da temÃtica pesquisada, que conforma uma explanaÃÃo das prÃticas e polÃticas de acolhimento institucional de crianÃas e adolescentes ao longo da histÃria do Brasil atà os dias de hoje; o segundo momento apresenta a discussÃo teÃrica que sustenta esta dissertaÃÃo. Nesse sentido, trazemos as discussÃes sobre identidade propostas por Ciampa (1987), bem como as atualizaÃÃes desta perspectiva com colaboraÃÃes de Almeida (2005) e Lima (2010), alÃm de outros autores alinhados à Psicologia Social CrÃtica; e o Ãltimo momento trata da narrativa da histÃria de Davi, bem como das anÃlises e discussÃes produzidas a partir dela. Nessa etapa buscamos entretecer os dois momentos anteriores à narrativa, como os fios de um tecido que se entrelaÃam entre a trama e o urdume. A histÃria de Davi marca a singularidade de uma vida de muita luta e labuta na busca constante da construÃÃo de sua autonomia. Viveu no abrigo durante sua infÃncia e retorna ao convÃvio familiar aos 10 anos, depois de viver 7 anos sem contato com a famÃlia. Ao retornar à famÃlia, precisou trabalhar desde menino para ajudar no sustento da casa, alÃm de ter de pedir dinheiro no semÃforo e ter ficado em situaÃÃo de rua em alguns momentos. No decorrer da histÃria vÃo emergindo e aparecendo outras tantas personagens: o cuidador-responsÃvel-pela-famÃlia, que aparece na infÃncia, o menino-trabalhador-catador-de-sucata e o menino-que-faz-malabares-no-semÃforo, o grafiteiro, o escritor-de-letra-rap, o danÃarino-que-promove-a-cultura-hip-hop, o atleta, o marido-e-pai-de-famÃlia, o educador-social, o publicitÃrio e o militante-dos-direitos-de-crianÃas-e-adolescentes. Davi revela uma histÃria de luta pela construÃÃo da autonomia e que, embora singular, possibilita expressar ainda outras tantas histÃrias silenciadas de pessoas que vivem ou viveram em situaÃÃo de abrigamento.

In section fifteen of the poem The Walls Do Not Fall author Hilda Doolittle (H.D.) address her audience and articulates the purpose of the poet in the following lines: â we are the keepers of the secret,/ the carriers, the spinners/ of the rare intangible thread/ that binds all humanity/ to ancient wisdom,/ to antiquity;/â ¦every concrete object/ has abstract value, is timeless/ in the dream parallelâ (Trilogy 24). H.D. mined her own life for charged relationships which she then, through writing, connected to the mythic characters of antiquity whose tales embodied the same struggles she faced. Reading concrete objects as universal symbols which transcend time, her mind meshed the 20th century with previous cultures to create a nexus where the questions embedded in the human spirit are alive on multiple planes. The purpose of this research project is not to define her works as â successfulâ or â unsuccessful,â nor to weigh the works against each other in terms of â advancement.â Rather it is to describe the way she manipulates this most reliable of tools, mythic metamorphosis, in works stretching from her early Imagist poetry, through her long poem Trilogy, and finally into her last memoir End To Torment, taking note of the way she uses this tool to form beauty from harsh circumstances and help heal her shattered psyche.Master of Arts

Full textAbstract:
L'étude que voici a pour but d'élaborer la façon dont peut être traitée, à partir de plusieurs aspects différents, la compréhension spécifique de Marcel Proust concernant l'identité, notamment dans le roman À la recherche du temps perdu. Dans la première partie, nous allons essayer de lier la question de l'identité à la déclaration de Proust selon laquelle sa tendance dès le début était de créer une suite des romans de l'inconscient, une déclaration qui tout de suite change la compréhension rationnelle de la définition de soi. Nous allons lier l'inconscient aux affects, désirs et passions qui sont élaborés dès le début de la création proustienne, à travers ses récits où s'ouvrent ces thèmes par leur relation aux processus de l'inceste, du parricide ou du matricide. La deuxième partie aborde le problème d'une différente identification, celle qui introduit le sujet d'abord dans le réseau de l'histoire, puis dans le réseau de la société. La période concrète de l'histoire française sert à capter grâce à la narration le conflit des passions du niveau individuel (les personnages) au niveau collectif (les groupes). Nous abordons aussi le problème de la vérité historique et de son orientation vers la fiction et le mythe. Dans la troisième partie seront placés tous ces moments de l'œuvre qui témoignent de la perte de soi, de l'absence de la représentation ou de l'image de soi et l'insuffisance de la narration dans la fixation des identités. D'abord, seront mentionnés les expériences de rêve et des sphères les plus proches à l'inconscient, puis la recherche de soi à travers l'autre qui dans l'amour se reconnaît comme une mission impossible, et qui dans la tentative d'atteindre l'être de l'autre, le perd irréversiblement ou obtient seulement les fragments qui ne sont pas susceptibles d'être composés comme une histoire.Comme une transition vers la conclusion seront analysées les conditions proustiennes pour comprendre l'être, n'importe s'il s'agit du social ou du plus intime, du genre ou de la religion, reconnues dans son intérêt pour la philosophie. Au lieu de l'ontologie ou de la foi, chez Proust sera essentielle la création artistique, qui, après toutes les péripéties de l'identité et des exemples de sa destruction, va vivre sa renaissance par la création, et nous pouvons faire un retour vers le début de l'exposition et dire que ce qui est atteint à la fin est exactement le processus de la métamorphose, de la renaissance de tous les phénomènes et événements vivants à travers le texteThe purpose of this study is to elaborate the way in which In Search of Lost Time can be treated, from several different aspects, the specific understanding of the author concerning identity, even if his Narrator never explicitly mentions such a project, he rather leaves us as readers to organize the implicit system of literary figuration that is offered.We define at first the theoretical preliminary concept, before situating Proust in a new perspective of metamorphosis as a changing and living form which corresponds to his understanding of phenomena and which is not exclusively submitted to the rational philosophical formula of identity, but includes the literary principle of Proustian transubstantiation - the process of transfer of all emotions, affects, feelings and passions in a creative text.In the first part, we tried to link the question of identity to the Proust's statement that from the beginning his tendency was to create a serie of novels of the unconscious, a statement that immediately changes the rational understanding of the definition of the self. We linked the unconscious to the affects, desires and passions that are developed in the beginning of Proust`s creation, in his short stories where these themes are opened through their relationship to the processes of incest, the parricide or matricide.The second part addresses the problem of a different identification, which introduces the subject in the context of history, then in the context of society. The actual period of French history serves to Proust to show once again the course of the conflict of passions on individual level (the characters) and on the collective level (the groups).The third part is somehow an opposition to the previous, and if the claim of the definition of self in society was seen as a mistake and lie to oneself, in the third part will be placed all those moments of the work that reflect the total loss of the self, the absence of representation or self-image. First will be mentioned the experiences of the dreams and the spheres that are closest to the unconscious, afterwards the self-seeking through the other in love who is recognizable as an impossible task, and who in his try to reach the being of the other, loses himself irreversibly or obtains only fragments that are not likely to be composed as a story. As well as in the previous part, the abolition of the truth will represent here one of the conditions of the impossible identity of the characters. In this section will be developed also the phenomena of gender identity and the concept of sin which joins it according to Proust, through the two characters of Charlus and Albertine who represent the sexual division, which will became later also a mental division.As a gateway to the conclusion will be analyzed the Proust`s conditions to understand the being, no matter if it is a question of the social or of the most intimate, the gender or the religion, recognized in his interest in philosophy. Instead of the ontology or the faith, in Proust will be essential the artistic creation, which, after all the vicissitudes of identity and the examples of its destruction, will live its rebirth through the creation, and we can make a return to the beginning of the exposure and say that which is attained at the end is exactly the process of metamorphosis, the rebirth of all living phenomena and events through the text

Full textAbstract:
The metamorphosis of man to beast has fascinated audiences for millennia. The werewolves of medieval literature were forced to conform to the Church's view of metamorphosis and, in so doing, transformed from bestial and savage to benevolent and rational. Analysis of Marie de France's Bisclavret, the anonymous Arthur and Gorlagon, the Irish tale The Crop-Eared Dog, and the French roman d'aventure Guillaume de Palerne reveals insight into medieval views of change, identity, and what it meant to exist in the medieval world. Each of these tales is told from the werewolf's point of view, and in each the wolf undergoes a fury or madness where he cannot seem to help turning savage and harming people. This 'rage of the wolf' lies at the root of the identities of these werewolves, reflecting the conflict between good and evil, the physical and the spiritual, and Church doctrine and a rapidly changing society.

Full textAbstract:
Migration can cause disruption to the normal functioning of the family; especially
women and mothers. In this study a cross sectional approach, using both quantitative
and qualitative methodologies was undertaken to establish the impact of migration
on women fiom the United Kingdom (UK) and Eire (N=154) now living in
Australia; from these participants 40 were selected for in-depth interview. Women
were asked about their experiences of migration and the strategies used to 'settle' in
a new country. The researcher postulated that the process of settlement requires a reinvention
of the self through building new perceptions of culture, country, friends,
and family and the re-definition of the self in relation to these aspects of the
environment. A conceptual model was developed and used to determine and
examine the relationships amongst who and what influenced the decision and
motivation to migrate, the impact of exposure to a new culture, assault on the old
identity and the possible grieving response to the impact of multiple loss (loss of
home, major attachment figure, family, community, culture and social networks).
Bowlby's attachment theory and grieving process was used as a theoretical
framework for the study. Data analysis inQcated that the majority of the women
experienced at least some of the characteristics associated with the stages of the
grieving process and the time-scale and pathway through the process differed
amongst individuals. Women who successfully reached the final stage (reorganisation) of the grieving process were able to "re-invent" themselves using pre
and post-migration strategies (social, cultural and country activities). Participants
who were less able in this transformation or re-invention used more solitary
strategies. Different levels of a sense of belonging and success in re-inventing the
self were linked to the different motivations for migrating. Inability to reach the
stage of re-organisation, even after residency of 20 years or more, resulted in
negative perceptions of the adopted country and continuing psychological distress.
However, even those participants who successfully re-invented themselves
continued to foster a residual link to the homeland. This is interpreted to be the
result of a form of imprinting. Furthermore, women with newborns or young
children identified that the impact of multiple loss, especially loss of a social support
system, had a detrimental impact on their childrearing experiences.
The study has implications for future migrants in assisting them to adjust and
survive in the new country. It also has implications for health professionals to
recognise that all mothers and perhaps especially migrant mothers require a social
support network. Further, the health professional needs to be a part of that network
and also assist the migrant to develop the appropriate shlls to extend their social
support. In addition, immigration and social services and the general population
should recognise and provide for the psychological and physical needs of migrants
of all origrns - English speaking as well as non-English speaking.

Full textAbstract:
A presente investigação teve por objetivo estudar a história de vida de uma família em um bairro (localizado em uma cidade do Vale do Paraíba-SP) estigmatizado pela violência. Buscou-se, com este estudo de caso, a melhor compreensão da maneira como a violência opera neste lugar e quais as consequências disso para as identidades de seus moradores no caso, os membros da família entrevistada. O método utilizado para a coleta de dados foi o percurso comentado / itinerário, o qual consiste em caminhadas com os sujeitos da pesquisa pelos lugares onde vivem, enquanto relatam sua história de vida nestes lugares. A postura adotada para a realização dos procedimentos de coleta inspirou-se na abordagem etnográfica, atentando-se pra as peculiaridades de uma etnografia contemporânea. Para a apresentação dos dados foi escolhida a forma de narrativas de personagens, fazendo-se um paralelo com a história de Lewis Carroll Alice no país do espelho (ou Alice através do espelho e o que ela encontrou por lá), e cotejando-se com observações da pesquisadora. A análise dos dados teve inspiração na análise literária e na escrita etnográfica, ou seja, articulando os momentos de estar lá (no campo da pesquisa) e de estar aqui (de volta à universidade), e buscando a interpretação das narrativas à luz de teorias que versem sobre os temas emergidos das falas. A partir dos relatos e da articulação teórica oferecida neste trabalho, buscou-se visualizar de forma mais clara o possível caminho através do qual emerge o que se chamou de violência no território estudado. Para isso, o trabalho apoiou-se em teorias psicossociais e dramatúrgicas da identidade, tais como a do interacionismo simbólico, focalizando o processo de estigmatização, tal como entendido por Goffman. E para o melhor entendimento da dinâmica social atuante no território em questão, buscaram-se subsídios em teorias provindas da psicologia socioambiental, em particular, a contribuição dos estudos urbanos, e, ainda, em teorias que versam sobre a marginalidade social, tais como a obra de Quijano. A título de conclusão, poder-se-ia entender que a questão da violência não pode ser atribuída somente a características individuais, nem apenas à sociedade em que o indivíduo se encontra inserido. Espera-se ter evidenciado, através das discussões, que a problemática existente no território estudado a questão da violência pode ser identificada como resultado ou até como um elemento intrínseco a determinadas interações humanas e estruturas sociais (estereotipadas, hierarquizadas e subjugadoras, gerando, assim elementos marginais); e que a sua maior contraposição é representada pela possibilidade de metamorfose (nos âmbitos individual e coletivo, constituindo aquilo que é propriamente humano) e pela participação verdadeiramente ética e política, de atores sociais capazes de serem protagonistas não somente de suas próprias histórias mas também do contexto que os rodeiaThis research aimed to study the life history of a family in a neighborhood (a city located in Vale do Paraíba-SP) stigmatized by violence. We sought, with this case study, a better understanding of how violence operates in this place and which are the consequences for the identities of its residents - in this case, the family members interviewed. The method used for data collection was the route commented / itinerary, which consists of walking with the subjects in the places where they live, while reporting his story of life in these places. The posture adopted for carrying out the procedures of collection was inspired by the ethnographic approach, considering the peculiarities of a contemporary ethnography. For the presentation of the data, we chose the form of narratives of characters, making a parallel with the story of Lewis Carroll - \"Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There\"), and interpolating with observations of the researcher. Data analysis took inspiration in literary analysis and ethnographic writing, ie, articulating the moments of \"being there\" (in the research field) and \"being here\" (back to the university), and sought the interpretation of the narratives under the light of theories that deal with the themes emerged from the speeches. Based on the narratives and on the theoretical articulation offered in this work, we attempted to visualize more clearly the possible path through which emerges what is called \"violence\" in the studied territory. For this, the work was based on psychosocial and dramaturgical theories of identity, such as the symbolic interactionism, focusing on the process of stigmatization, as understood by Goffman. And for the better understanding of the social dynamics acting in the territory in question, we sought grants in theories of environmental psychology, in particular, the contribution of urban studies, and also in theories that deal with the social marginality, such as the work of Quijano. In conclusion, it would be possible to understand that the issue of violence can not be attributed only to individual characteristics, nor only to the society in which the individual is inserted. We expect to have demonstrated, through the discussions, that the existing problematics in the study area - the issue of violence - can be identified as a result or even as an intrinsic element to certain human interactions and social structures (stereotyped, hierarchical and dominator, generating, this way, marginal elements); and that his greatest contraposition is represented by the possibility of metamorphosis (at the individual and collective levels, constituting what is properly human) and by the truly ethical and political participation of social actors, capable of being not only the protagonists of their own stories but also of the context that surrounds them

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse conjugue l’étude du mythe de la métamorphose et du sentir amoureux, afin de mettre en relief les transformations produites sous l’incidence faste ou néfaste de l’éros. Apporter de nouveaux éclairages mythocritiques et proposer une approche novatrice du mythe érotomorphique à travers une analyse spectrale et fractale de ses composantes constituent nos objectifs essentiels. Les œuvres analysées appartiennent aux littératures française, anglaise, belge, argentine, roumaine et flamande, et s’inscrivent, à l’exception des contes portant sur le fiancé-animal, dans les XXe et XXIe siècles. La diversité du corpus permet d’adjoindre au fait comparatiste une ouverture du champ de la recherche à travers des traductions inédites et des œuvres qui entremêlent modernité et remotivation de la tradition mythique. Les chapitres de la thèse, Préliminaires à l’étude du mythe, Sublimations érotomorphiques, Un amour guérisseur, Entre Éros et Thanatos, Aliénations et révolutions érotomorphiques, présentent le mythe de l’érotomorphose contrôlée, involontaire ou transférentielle, comme une enveloppe verbale littéraire qui crypte la réalité amoureuse intérieure et extérieure de l’être, dans le but de révéler son véritable moi-peau. La métamorphose apparaît ainsi comme une autoreprésentation matérielle de l’ego sensorium. Accomplir cette érotogenèse revient à annuler la discontinuité corporelle qu’entraîne la transformation, en conférant au métamorphe un corps à la mesure de son idéal amoureux, à la fois moïque et physique. La transition permet de la sorte le passage de la dissociation à une parfaite consonance fractale entre l’infrastructure de l’âme et la suprastructure corporelleThis thesis associates the study of the myth of metamorphosis and the analysis of the love faculty in order to emphasize transformations produced under the favourable or harmful incidence of eros. To cast a new light on mythocritical theories and to propose an innovative approach to the erotomorphic myth through a spectrum and a fractal analysis of its components constitute our essential objectives. The texts studied in this frame belong to French, English, Belgian, Argentinian, Romanian and Flemish literatures of the XXth and the XXIst centuries, with the exception of the fairy-tales about the animal bride. The diversity of this corpus permits to join comparative reasoning with an opening-up of the research field through original translations and literary works that intermingle modernity and remotivation of the mythic tradition. The chapters of the thesis, Preliminaries to the Study of Myth, Erotomorphic Sublimations, A Healing Love, Between Eros and Thanatos, Alienations and Erotomorphic Revolutions, present the myth of the controlled, involuntary or transferential erotomorphosis as a literary verbal envelope which encrypts the internal and external amorous reality of the human being, with the aim of revealing his true skin-ego. Metamorphosis thus appears like a material auto-representation of the ego sensorium. Accomplishing this erotogenesis means cancelling the corporal discontinuity involved in all transformations, by conferring to the metamorphe a body that matches his psychic and physical amorous ideal. The transition therefore allows passage from dissociation to a perfect fractal consonance between the corporal superstructure and the infrastructure of the heart

This thesis tried to understand the identity of the oldman in the contemporary world. It is known that the old people, in our country, still do part of social minorities, but in the last decades, they are getting great attention in the researches and in the news of media and open up our eyes for the continuity of this process. And that specifically happens in reason of fights for the statement and recognition of their identities, as well the attempt of getting over their problems, and their miserable life condition. Therefore, we intended to obtain subsidies that allow to describe the problems of the understanding of the psyco socials processes that involves the subject of the identity of the oldman in the contemporary world as well as the possible sense of a emancipating metamorphosis, that would happen (or not) in the understanding of their identities. The old ones use the past to update their present. From their historical-social path originates their own identity, constituted by the representation of social papers, papers that will model that identity under the effects of their memory. At the same time the narrative provokes changes in the way as the people understand themselves and the other ones. When producing the narratives it is possible to the oldman "to hear" himself and to speculate about his own experience. This can be a deeply emancipating process contained in the idea of identity as metamorphosis, that the person learns how to build your own history, your life project, creating your own path
Esta tese procurou compreender a identidade do velho no mundo contemporâneo. Sabe-se que as pessoas velhas, em nosso país, ainda fazem parte de minorias sociais, mas que, nas últimas décadas, vêm-se destacando a olhos vistos nas pesquisas e no noticiário midiático e nos despertando para a continuidade deste processo. E isso se dá em razão especificamente de lutas pela afirmação e reconhecimento de suas identidades, bem como pela tentativa de superação de suas problemáticas, como a miserabilidade de sua condição de vida. Assim, pretendemos obter subsídios que permitam problematizar a compreensão dos processos psicossociais que envolvem a questão da identidade do velho no mundo contemporâneo bem como o possível sentido de uma metamorfose emancipatória, que ocorreria (ou não) na compreensão de suas identidades. Os velhos se alimentam do passado para atualizarem seu presente. Da sua trajetória histórico-social se origina sua própria identidade, constituída pela representação de papéis sociais, papéis esses que vão dimensionar essa identidade sob os efeitos de sua memória. Ao mesmo tempo a narrativa provoca mudanças na forma como as pessoas compreendem a si próprias e aos outros. Ao produzir as narrativas é possível ao velho "ouvir" a si mesmo e teorizar sobre a sua própria experiência. Este pode ser um processo profundamente emancipatório contido na noção de identidade como metamorfose, em que o sujeito aprende a construir sua própria história, o seu projeto de vida, auto-determinando a sua trajetória

FundaÃÃo Cearense de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Cientifico e TecnolÃgicoEssa pesquisa tem como objetivo compreender os sentidos dados pelos sujeitos que vivem com HIV/AIDS Ãs suas experiÃncias e aos sentimentos vivenciados nesse processo de reconhecimento ou negaÃÃo das metamorfoses identitÃrias. Ã, pois, um estudo em Psicologia Social CrÃtica, com um embasamento teÃrico-metodolÃgico construÃdo a partir da obra de pensadores contemporÃneos das teorias crÃticas. Aqui, entendida como este constante olhar de questionamento sobre a realidade posta. A metodologia utilizada, de carÃter qualitativo, encontra no mÃtodo de narrativas de histÃria de vida uma possibilidade interessante de conhecimento da subjetividade humana. Partimos de uma concepÃÃo de sujeito que se implica no processo de constituiÃÃo de suas experiÃncias e, portanto, deve ser ouvido enquanto tal. Nesse sentido, nÃo foi utilizado um questionÃrio previamente estruturado para a realizaÃÃo das entrevistas, que aconteceram a partir das seguintes questÃes disparadoras: âQuem vocà Ãâ? âComo vocà se tornou quem vocà à hojeâ, âQuais seriam seus planos de futuro, agora?â. A anÃlise dos relatos trazidos se dà a partir da proposta teÃrica metodolÃgica apresentada por Ciampa, Almeida e Lima que preza pelos relatos de um narrador sobre sua existÃncia atravÃs do tempo e os processos de negaÃÃo e reconhecimento identitÃrio. Os fragmentos de narrativas aqui apresentadas perfazem a constituiÃÃo, em linhas gerais, de trÃs personagens diferentes. Um efeito narrativo que conecta formas de vida no que elas trazem de mais frÃgil. TrÃs formas de vida que nos convidam a um mergulho em suas realidades distintas e que dizem muito sobre os sentidos dados à experiÃncia de viver a exclusÃo e o medo. Apresentamos aqui o cerne de uma pesquisa que busca compreender a vida. Mais que trazer relatos dos marcadores biolÃgicos de uma doenÃa que preocupa autoridades sanitÃrias em todo o mundo, este trabalho busca entender o modo como, todos os dias, damos continuidade as nossas histÃrias. Como consideraÃÃes finais, falamos de quem somos e de como nos estruturamos a partir do resultado dinÃmico da reposiÃÃo constante de tudo que compÃe nossas trajetÃrias em narrativas de vida outras que, por vezes, refletem a nÃs mesmos.

Full textAbstract:
This is a text by Pierre Nora, who explores what he calls a ‘metamorphosis’ in French identity that has slowly taken place over the last few decades. Nora argues that France has been experiencing a painful reckoning of sorts around its shifting identity in the post-Gaullist era. His essay explores the retreat of the national-republican ideal, which has been replaced, he argues, with a fragmented landscape of memory-based identities. This new way of being a nation is characterized by multiple communities, each with its own particular mnemonic identity, often motivated by historical grievances.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter discusses how much of what Western thought came to feel about the subject of punishment originates in Ovid's artistic treatment of the subject. Punishment, he realized, is more than itself. It provides satisfaction for the punisher and through misery designates a flawed identity for the punished. That synergy also explains why punishment invariably goes up whenever it is not watched closely. To appreciate Ovid's obsession with punishment in his epic poem Metamorphoses, the chapter starts with the precise philosophical problem that drives it. His concern is with the misfortune that comes from punishment as opposed to mere misfortune, a serious distinction.

Illness seems to be a central theme for contemporary Latin-American literature. It is not only the object of the observation, but also a critical instrument to debilitate strong categories and binomes (such as male/female, sane/sick, alive/dead, human/non-human). This essay analyses the processes of hybridisation and metamorphosis related to illness in El huésped by Guadalupe Nettel and Fruta podrida by Lina Meruane. This examples show two different possibilities to embody the pathological experience: living against it and living with it. Illness could be an unpleasant partner, and there is no way to identify ourself with her, or a part of a wider us, opening to non-unitarian identity such as complexes and transforming organism. This consideration shows how Latin-American literature reflects on identity in a queer and posthuman way trough the metaphors that illness bring to the table.

Full textAbstract:
Humanity settlement are formed as a result of decisions and actions of different people and become as a form of an identity of integrity. So urban form is influenced by desires, values, beliefs, and human activities, so the study of urban form is the study of its constituent human values and expression of physical aspects of their lifestyles. Before contemporary periods, urban form in Iran, continuity based on former patterns of changes, which was gradual, but after the beginning of the influence of west, one of the most important challenges of urban form in Iran is in the form of short-term changes. Changes occur in a cycle of destruction and construction. This paper use the way of content analysis investigate to texts, document to study form and typo-morphology of residential environment in the city of Mashhad. In the periods of one hundred years shows there is a direct and significant relationship between changes of Iranian lifestyle and metamorphosis of urban form, so that by sequential developments of Iranian lifestyle in a short time, the urban form is responded and metamorphosed and again is created in a new form.

Full textAbstract:
Eastern Liguria, a sometimes harsh and inhospitable place, encompasses some of the most beautiful landscape realities of the region, thanks to the presence of the sea and of an unexpected scenery. In some cases, land and water are connected, clearly showing the challenges that Man had to face in order to dominate Nature. In these cases, these forms of anthropization can turn their constraints into potentials. In this context, in a gulf such as the one between Rapallo and Portofino, outposts arose as observers to protect the neighboring territory, characterized by docks and, consequently, a suitable area for trade and for pirate incursions. For these reasons, military-style architectural structures arose, both defensive and of sighting, depending on the building site, then, in the sixteenth century coordinated and transformed into a real defensive system, by the will of the Republic of Genoa. Here, then, we can find the castle of Rapallo, the tower of Saint Michael of Pagana, the Castle of Santa Margherita, the Castle of Paraggi and finally that of Portofino, each one with its own identity and events, but connectable to the others, if only for the territorial belonging to an extremely particular site as for organicity and homogeneity. This is what the study of the Castle of Paraggi underlines, as it was built on the cliff overlooking the sea that has enjoyed a “double life” based on highlighting the latent diametrically opposed potential: born for the defense of the land from sea incursions, later on it was converted into a residence, conceptually transforming its position from a dominating into a reserved one, from an outpost on the sea clearly visible, to a place hidden on the land, from public to private. Over the centuries, the change in the function and life of the castle, has therefore been introducing changes to the facies and the composition of its appearance through the different stages of its evolution.
