Full textAbstract:
Une connaissance scientifique des apparitions mariales reste largement a construire. Peu de travaux relatifs a cet objet resistent a la critique epistemologique. La presente these propose une approche et une interpretation entierement renouvelees des apparitions mariales, fondees sur des considerations epistemologiques, historiques et anthropologiques, cette perspective permet de mettre en evidence le sens profond, le signifie intrinseque des faits. Une interpretation scientifiquement valable de notre objet ne peut en effet reposer que sur le signifie originel et original de celui-ci. Les apparitions mariales retrouvent ainsi une dimension historique et anthropologique inattentue : loin de recouvrer un ensemble de faits heteroclites et insignifiants, explicables par des theories simplistes, elles constituent des faits societaux homogenes et majeurs, qui inaugurent un etre-en-societe radicalement novueau dont la pertinence sociologique merite considerationA scientifical knowledge of marian apparitions is still to be constructed. Only few studies concerning this object withstand epistemological criticism. The present thesis propose a new approach and a new interpretation of marian apparitions, based on epistemological, historical and anthropological reflections. A scientifically quite acceptable int erpretation of our object can only be based on its original meaning. Marian apparitions so recover unexpected historical and anthropological dimensions : far to form a whole of insignifiant and heteregeneous facts, explainable by simplistic theories, they represent homogeneous and greatest social events who tend to the construction of a radical new "being-insociety", whose sociological pertinence requires careful thought

Full textAbstract:
Jenny Holzer's text-based projects have attracted the attention of critics, historians, and curators from Des Moines to Dresden. An understanding of the complex interplay between language, gender, power, and site within Holzer's work demonstrates how a singular interpretive approach is insufficient for discussing the multitude of meanings her projects produce. Perhaps most significantly, a fresh analysis of Holzer's work and critical reactions to it challenges the story of modernism and postmodernism and the relationship between these two terms.

Full textAbstract:
Apparition phenomena, particularly those that claim Mary as their object, are still very influential in modern Roman Catholicism. The first half of this thesis is concerned with the context of these visions in their European form, and how the Catholic Church promotes some of them into the heart of its devotional life. On the whole, this first part takes a phenomenological view, simply looking at this process in its own right, although there are also some sociological insights and critical remarks. The author, as a Catholic devotee of the marian cult himself, is attempting to write a theological critique of the visions as a member of the pilgrim community, using a broader range of academic tools than is usually employed in such a task. In the second half of the thesis, therefore, a theoretical model is constructed that provides a new understanding of the phenomena. This model has four elements: firstly, the humanistic psychological, in which marian apparitions are compared with other such phenomena and considered from the view of depth psychology. The major factors which distinguish them are the intensity of the experience and the ecclesial context. Secondly, ecclesiological: the visions cannot be considered as extras or alternatives to the everyday life of the Catholic Church, but as its own 'epiphenomena'. Thirdly, mariological: the apparitions show evidence of 'high' mariology, although this is qualified because of Mary's apparent powerlessness in the face of God's judgement. In the modern era, the orthodox christocentric emphasis is more pronounced, but this does not appear to be a wholly spontaneous feature. Fourthly, and finally, biblical: the Christian revelation is rooted in history, and it is this which must be primary and not the archetypal, universal patterns of the psyche. Therefore the objective element in apparitions, if such exists, is, from a theological perspective, the Mary of history and her part in the events at the heart of the Christian understanding of salvation.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis advisor: Margaret E. GuiderThe cosmic mystery of Mary draws attention to what the Roman Catholic Church celebrates as her heavenly reign, an aspect of which is the proliferation of Marian apparitions and manifestations around the world particularly in the 19th and 20th centuries. This dissertation underscores that these historical interventions are manifestations of the action of the Holy Spirit in the particular figure of Mary and is attentive to the different ways God’s graces flow to the whole people of God without conflating the person of Mary with the Person of the Spirit. The instrumental nature of Mary’s relation to the Spirit in carrying out Christ’s salvific work is the centerpiece of this study. A key aspect of this work is the mutual recognition of non-Christians in that Mary’s appearances to a number of seers is not contingent on their being or becoming Christian. A number of modern apparitions have assumed political significance because of the social turmoil of the periods when they occurred. Of interest here, is an understanding of the Spirit’s implementation in Mary’s intellect and will, and the reception of her apparition messages in ways that are transformative for ecclesial life and all God’s people. This work includes an exposition of some of the scriptural, ecumenical, interreligious, and ecclesiastical foundations for understanding the Spirit’s action in Mary, and their influence on contemporary mariological discourse since the Second Vatican Council. It reviews some of the key insights from the two-thousand year history of Marian apparitions, the complexity of the phenomenon, and the trends observed during the modern period. Vailankanni (India), Zeitoun (Egypt), and Kibeho (Rwanda) are three case studies included based on the persistence of a Marian cult, pilgrim growth, and contemporary sociopolitical and religious concerns. The rise in Hindu nationalism in India, political tensions and growth of pan-Islamism in North Africa and the Middle East, and the 1994 genocide in Rwanda are studied using the historical-critical method and comparative studies of religion within the scope of apparitions, drawing attention to the marginalization of particular demographics based on religious or ethnic origin. Understanding the Spirit’s implementation in Mary enhances the analysis of the implications of these phenomena. The Spirit’s work through Mary’s cosmic mystery has profound, far-reaching significance for the world church and all God’s people. The three cases reveal how Marian apparitions evolve from obscure events in insignificant places to global centers of Christian spirituality. They make known the hidden potential of the gospel to apply Christian revelation to localized, particular challenges in new situations with permanent, prophetic, and eschatological implications. The permanent examines how the repetitive or apocalyptic nature of Mary’s appeals mobilizes the sensus fidelium through the transforming power of pilgrimage, its impact on Marian devotion, and the emergence of new ecclesial movements. The prophetic addresses Christian and interreligious unity through dialogical encounter, equality for all, God’s justice, and the preferential option for the poor. The global reach of Marian apparitions expresses the oneness of Mary operating under the power of the Spirit, accompanying a global humanity-in-pilgrimage towards the eschatological reign of God

Full textAbstract:
Depuis le début des années quatre-vingt, la petite localité de Kibeho - un hameau particulièrement difficile d’accès situé aux confins d’une région rurale du sud-ouest du Rwanda, à environ deux cents kilomètres de Kigali - s’est muée en une destination de pèlerinage prisée par de nombreux Catholiques rwandais et, désormais, étrangers. L’origine de ce changement de nature du lieu se confond avec les apparitions de la Vierge (mais aussi du Christ et d’autres personnages du « panthéon » catholique) dont ont été favorisées plusieurs jeunes filles scolarisées au collège catholique local au début des années quatre-vingt, puis un certain nombre d’adolescents des environs. De spontanés et irréguliers qu’ils étaient dans les premières années du phénomène, encore liés aux performances publiques des voyants qui bénéficiaient des apparitions à heures fixes sur un podium surélevé, les déplacements d’individus se sont graduellement organisés. Aujourd’hui, à Kibeho, les apparitions publiques ont pris fin. Les pèlerins, qu’ils appartiennent à l’un ou l’autre mouvement d’Action catholique ou à un groupe de prière et de pèlerinage né des apparitions, se regroupent dans différents centres urbains du pays pour rejoindre le sanctuaire de Notre-Dame des Douleurs, érigé suite à la reconnaissance des apparitions par l’Eglise catholique en 2001 et en perpétuelle expansion depuis lors. En 2001, la déclaration de reconnaissance mentionne, parmi les signes de crédibilité des apparitions, « la journée du 15 août 1982 qui fut marquée notamment, contre toute attente, par des visions effroyables, qui dans la suite se sont avérées prophétiques au vu des drames humains vécus au Rwanda et dans l’ensemble des pays de notre région des Grands Lacs ». Cette lecture officielle qui confère un horizon de sens aux événements, instituant la prophétie en des termes choisis permettant d’y entrevoir le génocide comme l’hécatombe du choléra dans les camps de réfugiés du Congo, est diversement négociée par les acteurs locaux, même si la conviction de la réalisation d’une prophétie est quasi-unanime. Du point de vue des pèlerins, les apparitions demeurent relativement problématiques. Elles exigent de chacun qu’il négocie sa position en fonction d’une représentation de l’orthodoxie constamment réévaluée dans les limites de ce qui est expérimenté et affirmé comme une identité catholique. Cette difficulté est notamment due à la multiplicité des individus qui ont revendiqué ou revendiquent encore des visions ou apparitions, alors que seules trois jeunes filles ont été reconnues par l’Eglise catholique en 2001.
Après avoir soigneusement défini le cadre socio-historique des apparitions rwandaises, en abordant la question depuis le point de vue de voyants non reconnus - dont l’une expatriée en Belgique - et de ceux qui leur sont proches, la thèse propose une analyse des discours par lesquels ceux-ci se définissent et négocient la légitimité de leur pratique religieuse. Une attention particulière a été portée aux outils stéréotypés de la critique (sexualité, politique, vénalité…), mobilisés dans le cadre des tensions et conflits qui opposent différents acteurs individuels et collectifs. Par ailleurs, les mécanismes qui président aux rhétoriques de la construction de soi ont été mis en lumière, notamment par le biais des récits de guerre qui fondent une identité de survivant liée à la conviction d’une intervention mariale. Ce processus se confond souvent avec ceux qui président à la construction du pouvoir de la Vierge, et donc des voyants. Finalement, au travers de l’analyse des représentations touchant notamment à la prophétie du génocide et de la guerre civile, les nouveaux rapports au national se font jour, les violences des années nonante étant intégrées dans un schéma biblique qui opère un basculement significatif :parce que le Rwanda serait touché de plein fouet par la Mal, il a été choisi par Dieu et par la Vierge comme noyau de la Nouvelle Evangélisation. À travers l’analyse du rapport au divin, à l’autorité, aux représentations de la modernité que les mots des acteurs reflètent, c’est le catholicisme vécu qui s’éclaire à l’ombre du sanctuaire et de son appareil médiatique foisonnant, ce catholicisme empirique dont la richesse se renouvelle à chaque « enculturation » comme au passage des générations successives et dont il importe, pour l’anthropologie comme pour l’histoire du christianisme, d’approcher l’infinie variété.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse s’attache à mettre en lumière les points de rencontre entre la philosophie épicurienne et l’épopée de Virgile. Si les relations entre la philosophie d’Épicure et l’œuvre de Virgile ont fait l’objet de nombreux développements, les correspondances et les liens mis en lumière concernent pour l’essentiel ses œuvres de jeunesse, soit les poèmes des Géorgiques et des Bucoliques. A contrario, on constate que dans l’épopée d’Énée, les empreintes de l’épicurisme se trouvent bien souvent mises au second plan.Chez Virgile comme chez Lucrèce et les épicuriens, ce qui a trait à la vision et au phénomène des songes tient une place importante. Cette étude envisage de montrer dans quelle mesure le traitement littéraire des différents épisodes de songes et d’apparitions qui rythment l’épopée virgilienne constitue un reflet des considérations épicuriennes qui ont participé à la formation philosophique du jeune poète. La façon dont il aborde le sujet des rêves et des apparitions au travers d’un récit épique codifié se trouve mise en parallèle avec les écrits d’Épicure et plus spécifiquement avec de De rerum natura de Lucrèce. Les questions épistémologiques en lien avec l’épicurisme, de même qu’une analyse du vocabulaire lié aux images et aux songes sont au cœur de ce travail.S’il y avait a priori un enjeu dans le choix d’appréhender une œuvre de l’ampleur de l’Énéide du point de vue de l’épicurisme et en se limitant aux seuls textes traitant des songes et des apparitions, l’analyse des vers de Virgile à la lumière du texte de Lucrèce permet de faire émerger des affinités tant au niveau du lexique que des thématiques traitées. Les empreintes d’une influence épicurienne dans l’épopée de Virgile sont, comme les songes et apparitions, d’une nature parfois ténue, mais si on veut bien y prêter attention, elles ne sont pour autant ni impalpables ni insaisissablesThis thesis aims to highlight links between the epicurean philosophy and Vergil’s epic. If the relations between Epicurus’ philosophy and Vergil’s work have been widely discussed, the highlighted interconnections and links mainly deal with his early works, ie. Georgics and Bucolics. On the other hand, it is possible to note that in Aeneas’ epic the footprint of epicureanism are often put on a second plan.Both as in Vergil and in Lucretius and the Epicureans, the topic dealing with the vision and the dream has an important status. This study aims to demonstrate the way the literary interpretation of the differents episodes of dreams and apparitions, that punctuate Vergil’s epic, is a mirror of the epicurean considerations that took part in the philosophical background of the young poet. The way he deals with the subject of the dreams and the apparitions through a codified epic story is compared with Epicurus’ writings and more specifically with Lucretius’ De rerum natura. Epistemological questions linked with the epicureanism, as well an analysis of the vocabulary refering to images and dreams are the main point of the study.through the epicureanism, limited to the texts dealing with dreams and apparitions, the analysis of Vergil’s verses thanks to Lucretius’ work allows us to highlight affinities in terms of the lexicon as well as the topics covered.The marks of an epicurean influence in Vergil’s epic are, as the dreams and the apparitions, of a tenuous essence, but if we look at this carefully, they are nevertheless neither intangible nor elusive

Full textAbstract:
This research seeks to explore Marian apparition movements as applied to movement success models. Among the numerous reports of the Virgin Mary appearing to the faithful, a select number of these experiences have developed into social movements. These movements take on similar patterns in their development and are contingent upon group involvement and support. This analysis researches how certain cases of Marian apparitions transition from lone psychic experience into a social movement and seeks to expand upon existing movement success models.

Full textAbstract:
Après le séisme de l'Irpinia le 23 novembre 1980, un regain de dévotion mariale s'est vérifié dans plusieurs localités de la Campanie. Notre travail souhaite évoquer le lien entre la catastrophe naturelle et les apparitions mariales de deux localités de la Campanie : Casavatore et Oliveto Citra. Si ces deux événements surnaturels n'ont pas donné lieu à une reconnaissance durable et par voie de conséquence à des pèlerinages pérennes, il en va autrement pour le culte dédié à Padre Pio (1887-1968) qui génère un engouement dévotionnel sans cesse croissant à San Giovanni Rotondo. Notre travail veut démontrer, à travers d'autres exemples de dévotion mariale comme le culte de la Vierge au Rosaire crée à la fin du XIXe par Bartolo Longo au coeur de la Nuova Pompei, que les supports médiatiques traditionnels, associés aux inventions technologiques sont les instruments garantissant la continuité d'un culteAfter the Irpinia earthquake of November 23rd, 1980, a revival of the Marian devotion was discovered in several localities of Campania. Our work aims to establish the link between the natural disaster and the Marian appearances in two localities of Campania: Casavatore and Oliveto Citra. If those two "acts of God" did not lead to a lasting recognition and thus, to perennial pilgrimages, the same cannot be said with respect to the cult dedicated to Pio of Pietrelcina (1887-1968) that has given rise to a continuously growing devotional enthusiasm in San Giovanni Rotondo. Our work means to demonstrate, through other examples of Marian devotion such as the cult of Our Lady of the Rosary?created at the end of the XIX century by Bartolo Longo at the heart of Nueva Pompeya?that traditional forms of media, associated with technological inventions, are the instruments guaranteeing the continuity of a cult

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this qualitative study is to describe the nature and significance of the after-death communication experience (ADC). The research asks what is it like to have an experience of communication with a deceased loved one, what is the essential nature of the experience, and what are the effects and meanings of the experience within the lives of the participants? This study explores the lived experiences of eighteen participants, sixteen women and two men, who report a variety of ADCs over the years following their bereavement. The ADCs are explored within the context of the participants’ lives so as to show how these extraordinary experiences can be understood as happening to real people within their own history rather than as isolated events. The first part of the thesis gives biographical descriptions of the participants’ lives following their ADCs. The second part of the thesis analyses the essential nature and qualities of the ADC experience and gives a robust description of the nature of the phenomenon. Phenomenological analysis of the data occurs in overlapping steps consisting of the individual descriptions, reduction techniques and emergence of seven themes describing the essence of the experiences for these participants.
The themes show the experiences are unexpected and startling and intrude into ordinary experience. Familiar characteristics authenticate the presence of the deceased. Information, care, love and ongoing relationship are conveyed. The participants grapple with the experiences over time. They find they are deeply imprinted and powerful, and produce immediate and long-term effects. Heightened awareness that transcends ordinary experience gives the bereaved a ‘knowing’ of the ongoing life of their loved one. Expanded consciousness and reflection lead to seeing reality as larger and more complex and includes an unseen world where their loved one is continuing to live in another form. The themes are illustrated using the participants’ descriptions of their ADCs. Last of all a description of the phenomenon is compiled using an intuitive reflective process.
Powerful and transforming after-effects demonstrate that the ADCs contribute to managing grief in the major losses of the participants’ lives, to the allaying of fears of death, to belief in an after-life and to belief in the interconnectedness and continuity of relationships across the boundary of death. There are major changes in sense of self, life and living, purpose and meaning, spiritual and religious understanding, and psychic sensitivity.

Musso, Valeria C. "Marian apparitions in cultural contexts : applying Jungian depth psychological concepts to mass visions of the Virgin Mary." Thesis, University of Essex, 2017. http://repository.essex.ac.uk/19964/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores collective phenomena, specifically mass visions of the Virgin Mary and examines the case of Marian apparitions in Zeitoun, Egypt. A review of the literature points to a prevailing socio-political approach to examining visions of the Virgin Mary while a psychoanalytical approach is generally lacking. The former approach suggests that Marian apparitions can be interpreted as a backlash against modernity, secularization, and political ideology. I argue that an important gap remains in this interpretation, as the socio-political approach does not address the psychological aspect of the apparitions, but rather research is stressed on social and political implications surrounding them. In particular, a Jungian perspective seems to be particularly suited for the objective of filling in this gap, thanks to Jung’s interest in investigating collective visions. This thesis draws from Jung’s compensation theoretical model in Flying Saucers with the aim of merging depth-psychology and historical material from the Zeitoun case. Weaknesses to Jung’s theoretical approach are discussed, and this is addressed through the employment of qualitative and quantitative empirical work in the form of survey, eyewitness testimonial case studies, and photographic material. Common themes and symbols are extracted and interpreted from the empirical material and analyzed along with Egyptian social and political data. This study concludes with a discussion on how depth psychological principles grounded in empirical and historical material could be applied in order to explicate cases of mass visions.

EnglishPh.D.
This dissertation examines the body of literature that formed around anomalous light apparitions (comets, new stars, the aurora borealis, and rainbows) as it explores questions about the representation and response to celestial and meteorological phenomena during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in colonial America. I further consider the ways that these texts’ meanings are informed by rational scientific thought and by other non-scientific or non-rational, emotive, or aesthetic modes of thinking. I consider how these phenomena elicit a set of empirical yet emotionally-charged observational practices that complicate how we understand the roles of the rational and the non-rational in the scientific literature of this period. I argue that non-rational passionate investments are evident within or as part of the period’s rational scientific literature; they act as the impetus for scientific inquiry therefore forming an integral part of the scientific endeavor. This dissertation further explores how the practice of writing about these phenomena generates and facilitates the formation of communities of amateur scientific observers in colonial America. I further investigate how practices of data collection contribute to knowledge about the regular and irregular behaviors of celestial bodies, and how this knowledge impacts everyday practices essential for survival such as farming and travelling. What science writing from this period demonstrates is the ability for multiple ways of thinking to be in play simultaneously; these texts show how several worldviews (i.e. science, Puritanism, popular religion) are intrinsic to each other. Because of their liminality, these texts function outside of traditional categories such science, religion, and natural philosophy. Furthermore, they destabilize traditional conceptions of genre with their blend of rational and non-rational modes of thought and their incorporation of fact and fiction. While I treat these literary texts within their historical contexts, I am also interested in the ways in which these texts reach modern audiences, particularly in academia at a time when the humanities and sciences are positioned against one another.

Faculdades EST, 2012. http://tede.est.edu.br/tede/tde_busca/arquivo.php?codArquivo=369.
Full textAbstract:
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e TecnológicoEsta dissertação desenvolve-se a partir da seguinte hipótese: à semelhança de todas as demais culturas ao redor do mundo e em todas as épocas, o Antigo Israel cultivou crenças em assombrações. Dessa hipótese, desdobra-se uma pergunta central: a Bíblia judaica conservou vestígios dessas crenças? A pesquisa elabora uma resposta em três capítulos. No primeiro, estabelece-se uma definição geral de assombração para, em seguida, aplicá-la a alguns textos da Bíblia judaica na forma de duas categorias básicas: demônios e fantasmas. Comentam-se, desse modo, especialmente sete assombrações ` a zāzēl, Lîlîṯ, os ś e `îrîm, Maḥîṯ, a mão fantasmagórica, Bēs e os ś e rāpîm do templo de Jerusalém , as quais, ao mesmo tempo que enquadradas dentro das categorias anteriores, são agrupadas numa tipologia baseada em elementos que estabelecem afinidades entre elas: assombrações de lugares desertos, assombrações insalubres ou mortíferas, assombrações agourentas e assombrações benevolentes. No segundo capítulo, utilizando a metodologia de exegese histórico-crítica, propõe-se uma análise de Ex 4.24-26. O objetivo é investigar a possibilidade de haver uma versão mais antiga desse texto, segundo a qual o filho de Zípora, e não Moisés, fora atacado no lugar do pernoite por um demônio. Diante da ameaça, a mãe do menino efetuou-lhe a circuncisão e proferiu um dito, dois atos que poderiam ser entendidos como integrantes de um ritual de exorcismo. Uma releitura monoteísta teria sido responsável por três modificações básicas: a) substituição do demônio por YHWH; b) inclusão de Moisés na história, provável causa da confusão dos pronomes pessoais masculinos e c) reinterpretação da circuncisão, a qual passou de procedimento de exorcismo para sinal de pertencimento ao povo de YHWH no contexto da narrativa da saída de Israel do Egito (Ex 1 15). No terceiro capítulo, emprega- se, uma vez mais, a metodologia de exegese histórico-crítica para analisar 1Sm 28.3-25. Pela comparação com outros textos de cunho deuteronomista, identificaram-se prováveis acréscimos redacionais que sugeririam ter havido, em um estágio mais antigo, uma narrativa que contava como um ancestral falecido anônimo anunciou a morte de Saul nas mãos dos filisteus. Não se percebia necessariamente uma censura à prática da consulta aos mortos, apenas a exposição de variados meios de consulta a um oráculo. Mais tarde, o trabalho deuteronomista sobre essa peça literária teria transformado Saul num perseguidor daquela arte, tornando-o, simultaneamente, culpado de recorrer àquilo que ele mesmo havia proibido. Além disso, substituiu-se o ancestral anônimo original evocado pela mulher de En-Dor pelo profeta Samuel, cuja palavra se cumpre justamente por ser ele, de acordo com a perspectiva deuteronomista, um porta-voz autorizado de YHWH. Pode-se, portanto, considerar Ex 4.24- 26 e 1Sm 28.3-25 como dois exemplos de histórias de assombração na Bíblia judaica.
This thesis is developed based on the following hypothesis: similar to all other cultures around the world and in all periods, Ancient Israel cultivated beliefs in apparitions. From this hypothesis stems a central question: did the Jewish Bible retain vestiges of these beliefs? The research elaborates an answer in three chapters. In the first it establishes a general definition of apparition to, following, apply it to some texts of the Jewish Bible in the form of two basic categories: demons and phantoms. In this sense, seven apparitions are especially commented on ` a zāzēl, Lîlîṯ, the ś e `îrîm, Maḥîṯ, the phantasmagoric hand, Bēs and the ś e rāpîm of the temple of Jerusalem which, while at the same time fitting into the prior categories, they are also grouped in a typology based on elements which establish affinities among them: apparitions of desert places, unwholesome or deadly apparitions, ominous apparitions and benevolent apparitions. In the second chapter, utilizing the methodology of historical-critical exegesis, an analysis of Ex. 4:24-26 is proposed. The goal is to investigate the possibility of the existence of a more ancient version of this text, according to which the son of Zipporah, and not Moses, was attacked in the overnight place by a demon. Confronted with the threat, the mother of the boy carried out the circumcision and pronounced a saying, two acts which could be understood as being part of an exorcism ritual. A monotheistic reading would be responsible for three basic modifications: a) substitution of the demon with YHWH; b) inclusion of Moses in the story, probable cause of the confusion of the masculine personal pronouns and c) reinterpretation of circumcision, which went from being a procedure of exorcism to a sign of belonging to the people of YHWH in the context of the narrative of the exodus of Israel from Egypt (Ex. 1-15). In the third chapter, once again the historical-critical methodology of exegesis is used to analyze 1 Sam. 28:3-25. In comparing with other texts of Deuteronomic character, probable redactional additions were identified which could suggest that there was, in a more ancient stage, a narrative which told of how an anonymous dead ancestor announced the death of Saul at the hands of the Philistines. One does not necessarily perceive a censorship of the practice of consulting the dead, only the exposition of various ways of consulting an oracle. Later, the Deuteronomic work on this literary piece would have transformed Saul into a persecutor of that art, making him, simultaneously, guilty of resorting to that which he himself had forbidden. Beyond this, the original anonymous ancestor evoked by the woman of En-Dor was substituted by the prophet Samuel, whose word is fulfilled precisely because he, according to the Deuteronomic perspective, is an authorized spokesperson of YHWH. Therefore, one can consider Ex. 4: 24-26 and 1 Sam. 28:3-25 as two examples of stories of apparitions in the Jewish Bible.

Full textAbstract:
Le Symbolisme de l’Apparition de Léon Bloy est l’embryon du reste de son œuvre. Les ombres de nos connaissances sur la genèse et l’écriture de ce texte rendent nécessaire un éclairage sur les facteurs historiques de ce projet inachevé et sur les influences reçues par l’auteur. La figure tutélaire de l’abbé Tardif de Moidrey exerce sur lui l’influence la plus importante, à côté de celle d’Ernest Hello et d’Anne-Marie Roulé. Une enquête historique permet de mettre en lumière les raisons de sa profonde emprise sur Bloy et les lignes directrices de sa pensée sur quelques thèmes majeurs : une vision généalogique de l’histoire, l’imaginaire médiéval, la réparation par le sacrifice et l’espérance du « retour » des Juifs et de l’accomplissement des prophéties. L’autorité de la Somme théologique de saint Thomas apporte à ces thèmes un fondement philosophique ; quant au culte de Marie, il en est le point d’aboutissement. Tardif a transmis à Bloy l’idée d’appliquer l’exégèse symbolique aux apparitions de la Vierge. Cette exégèse fait elle-même ici l’objet d’un éclairage historique, ainsi que la mariologie dont le Symbolisme de l’Apparition est le reflet et le prolongementSymbolism of the Apparition of Leon Bloy is at the origin of his whole work. The shadows of our knowledge about the genesis and the writing of this text require light on the historical factors of this unfinished project and the influences received by the author. The tutelary figure of father Tardif de Moidrey exerts on him the most important influence, in addition to Ernest Hello and Anne -Marie Roulé. A historical research helps to enlighten the reasons for his profound influence on Bloy and the guidelines of his thoughts on a few major themes : a genealogical view of history, the reference to the Middle Ages, the repair through sacrifice and the hope of the « return » of the Jews and of the fulfillment of the prophecies. The authority of the Summa Theologica brings to these themes a philosophical basis, and the cult of Mary gathers them all. Tardif has transmitted to Bloy the idea of applying the symbolic exegesis to the apparitions of the Virgin. This exegesis itself is interpreted in an historical perspective, as well as the Mariology, that Symbolism of the Apparition reflects and extends

Full textAbstract:
Le 4 novembre 1847, Mgr de Bruillard, évêque de Grenoble, institue une commission d'enquête destinée à préparer le jugement doctrinal qu'il doit porter sur l'apparition alléguée de la Vierge Marie à La Salette le 19 septembre 1846. S'il ne fait en cela que reprendre les règles classiques de l'Eglise en matière de discernement des esprits, il innove en définissant de façon rigoureuse le cadre canonique dans lequel doit s'exercer ce discernement, selon une procédure calquée pour partie sur celle préconisée en matière de canonisations par le De servorum Dei beatificatione et de beatorum canonizatione (1734-1738) de Prospero Lambertini, futur pape Benoît XIV. Pour exemplaire que se veuille cette procédure – adoptée par un nombre croissant d'évêques concernés par des faits d'apparitions dans leurs diocèses –, pour efficace qu'elle se révèle, elle se heurte rapidement à divers obstacles montrant ses limites, obstacles dont les moindres ne sont pas, au XXe siècle jusqu'au concile Vatican II, les interventions de plus en plus fréquentes du Saint Office auprès des évêques. Après Vatican II, une plus grande latitude sera laissée aux évêques, mais les répercussions au niveau mondial de certaines mariophanies amèneront la Congrégation pour la doctrine de la foi à édicter en 1978 des Normes générales, véritable feuille de route destinée aux évêques. Ces Normes seront néanmoins rendues bientôt inapplicables à cause de l'émergence de nouveaux types de mariophanies, dont la matrice est le “phénomène Medjugorje” (1981) : qualifiée d'apparition de rupture, cette mariophanie pose, par ses implications non seulement religieuses, mais également sociétales et même politiques, la question de la réaction de l'institution ecclésiale face à des faits et des attitudes qui, tout en se réclamant de l'Église, prétendent se soustraire pour partie à son jugement sous le prétexte d'une plus libre et immédiate insertion dans l'histoire actuelle des hommes, et où l'efficacité temporelle du phénomène le dispute à son authenticité spirituelle et à sa fonction ecclésiale, au risque de constituer le principal critère de jugement de la mariophanieOn the 4th of November 1847, Msgr de Bruillard, the Bishop of Grenoble, sets up a commis-sion of inquiry aimed at clearing the way for the doctrinal judgment he will have to pass on the alleged apparition of the Virgin Mary at La Salette on the 19th of September 1846. In doing so is merely applying once again the usual rules of the Church in matters pertaining to the discernment of spirits, but he actually does innovate by rigorously definiting the canonical framework within which this judgment must be exercised, following – in matters regarding the question of canonization – a procedure which, to some extent, faithfully reflected the one already favoured by the De servorum Dei beatificatione et de beatorum canonizatione (1734-1738) by Prospero Lambertini (the future pope Benedict XIV). Even though it aims to serve as a model (adopted by a growing number of bishops having to come to terms with events of apparitions in their dioceses), and however efficient it proves to be, this type of procedure soon meets with a variety of obstacles exposing its own limitations : among these obstacles one could not minimize the increasingly frequent interference of the Holy Office in its dealings with the bishops, before the Second Vatican Council. After the Council, the bishops are given more leeway, but the repercussions – on a world scale – of certain mariophanies will induce the Congregation for the Doctrine of the faith to edict in 1978 a set of general Norms, offering the bishops the guiding lines of a roadmap. Nevertheless, these norms will soon become inapplicable, in the face of newly emerging types of mariophanies, whose primary source is the 'Medjugorje case' (1981). Because of its implications – not just religious, but political and societal as well – this mariophany has been dubbed the breaking point apparition, raising the question of how the ecclesiastical Institution should respond to facts and attitudes which, while pretending to speak in the name of the Church, claim the right to disregard part of her decisions, by using as an excuse the need for a more open-minded and a more immediate involvement in the history of mankind – as it appears nowadays ; so much so that, conflicting with the judgments on the authenticity of the case and its relevance for the Church, the claimed fruitfulness of the event runs the risk og beeing viewed as the principal criterion for a judgment on the phenomenon itself

Full textAbstract:
Le miracle marial est l’histoire d’une rencontre entre l’homme et la sainte, le récit du miracle le partage avec la communauté des lecteurs de cette expérience. Dans l’expérience première comme dans sa mise en forme poétique, un rôle essentiel est joué par la vision, ou plus exactement par les trois visions définies par saint Augustin : visio corporalis, visio spiritalis, visio intellectualis. Les frontières sont labiles entre ces trois niveaux, mais on peut leur associer trois types d’images mariales : les images cultuelles, les mariophanies, les épithètes qui se substituent au nom de la sainte. Toutes sont nécessaires au portrait d’une héroïne dont la perfection ne peut être chantée que par l’abondance du verbe et sa variété. L’étude analyse la part respective et les relations de chacune des trois visions, et se focalise sur trois constellations métaphoriques : les fleurs (fleurs végétales ou fleurs poétiques), l’or (attribut régalien et divin), le lait (emblème de la figure maternelle). Elle montre enfin que par ces trois visions se tisse une relation de douceur et de joie destinée à rivaliser avec le joi du grand chant d’amour courtoisMiracles of the Virgin tell the story of encounters between human beings and the saint, and in the telling the encounter is shared with the community of those whose access to the experience is via reading. In the initial experience as well as in its subsequent re-telling in poetic form, vision, or more precisely the visio corporalis, the visio spiritalis and the visio intellectualis, as defined by St Augustine, has an important role to play. The dividing line between these three levels is a shifting one, but it is possible to see them as corresponding to three types of image associated with the Virgin: those pertaining to her worship, to her visionary appearances, and to epithets used as replacements for her name. All three are necessary components in the portrayal of a heroine whose perfection can be celebrated only in the exuberance of the spoken word and in its variety. The present study analyses the respective contribution of each of these three types of vision by focusing on three clusters of metaphors: flowers (of the fields or of rhetoric), gold (both a regal and a divine attribute), and milk (emblematic of the maternal). It shows how these three combine together to produce a relationship of sweetness and joy which is the counterpart to the joi celebrated in the lyrics of courtly love

Full textAbstract:
Coptes et musulmans d'Egypte entretiennent une relation particulière avec leurs saints qu'ils côtoient et sollicitent au quotidien. Or, cette religiosité est susceptible d'engendrer une mixité : chrétiens et musulmans fréquentent parfois les mêmes (lieux) saints. Ce fut notamment le cas au XXe siècle autour des figures de Marc (considéré comme le fondateur de l'église égyptienne), de Jean-Baptiste et de la Vierge Marie qui, par leurs reliques ou leurs apparitions, ont fait converger, pour un temps, partisans du Christ et de Muḥammad. Cette mixité doit néanmoins être questionnée et mise en perspective selon différents facteurs. Le contexte politique, économique et social, les tensions internes entre une religion majoritaire (l'islam) et une autre minoritaire (le christianisme), l'attitude des trois derniers présidents à l'égard du phénomène saint et de la question copte, de même que les intérêts des séculiers et des religieux révèlent les enjeux de cette mixité et son évolution dans le temps.

Full textAbstract:
Au-delà des conceptions réductrices sur la magie de spectacle, cette thèse soutient l'idée selon laquelle la magie est une dimension de notre expérience, de notre être-au-monde. Notre recherche vise à expliciter, de manière existentielle et phénoménologique, le sens de l'expérience artistique magique en tant qu'expérience de l'impossible. Elle s'appuie sur une méthode expérientielle fondée sur un constant dialogue entre concept et expérience. L'artiste magicien est un sculpteur de phénomène et un tisserand de l'étoffe du visible. Il offre une épreuve de l'apparaître en son effectivité jaillissante. L'expérience artistique magique s'accomplit dans la tension entre la représentation objectivante et la présence sensible. La magie, en tant que faire-être créateur, est en même temps le sens de l'art et le sens de l'existence. L'expérience de l'impossible nous fait découvrir la magie de l'existence qui est l'éveil d'un monde qui s'ouvre en nous et nous ouvre à nous-mêmesBeyond reductionist preconceptions about magic as a spectacle, this thesis defends the idea that magic is a dimension of our experience, of our being-in-the-world. Our study aims at defining the meaning of the artistic experience of magic, existentially and phenomenologically, as an experience of the impossible. It uses a method based on lived experience, involving a constant dialogue between concept and practice. The artist magician is a sculptor of phenomena and a craftsman of the visible. He offers a feeling for the way things appear at the very moment they actually spring forth into existence and an experience achieved in the tension between objectivising representation versus presence as it is felt. Magic, which involves the creative bringing forth of a world of experience, is both the meaning of art and the meaning of existence. Experiencing the impossible reveals the magic of existence which is the awakening of a world which opens up within us, and which opens us to ourselves

A construção do Santuário da Santa Montanha e do povoado onde este se localiza se originou a partir dos relatos das aparições de Nossa Senhora Aparecida por três crianças na zona rural da cidade de Guiricema, no interior de Minas Gerais, nos anos 1960. Este mundo religioso, baseado estritamente no catolicismo, foi criado por moradores ao redor da montanha, que se uniram, rompendo com a comunidade onde se inseriam e deram início à criação de um mundo/cosmos regido diretamente por Nossa Senhora e pelo Menino Jesus. O presente estudo analisa a construção deste mundo peculiar, tendo por base a teoria da construção social da realidade como proposta por Peter Berger e Thomas Luckmann, abordando-a como um processo da atividade humana que permite desenvolver e construir um mundo, mantendo-o em funcionamento.
The idea of creating Santa Montanha’s Sanctuary, and the village where it is located, originates from narratives about Saint Mary’s apparitions, based on reports of three children from Guiricema – a town located on the countryside of Minas Gerais state – in the nineteen sixties. This religious world, strictly based on Catholicism, was created by the people who lived in the surroundings of the hill where the sanctuary was built. Together, they left their homes and formed a new community, creating a world/cosmos ruled directly by Saint Mary and Baby Jesus themselves. This study analyses the construction of this peculiar world, based on Peter Berger and Thomas Luckman´s theory of the social construction of reality, considering it a process of human activity that allows us to develop and create a world, keeping it functional.

Full textAbstract:
This PhD thesis addresses an artistic research practice based on the ontology and phenomenology of the photographic image. Part I presents a series of photographs entitled Midnight in Mumbai, and Part II considers the act of photographing by examining the phenomenological aspect of photography arising directly from my artistic practice. By looking into the prehistory of photography, foregrounding the early developments of the nascent medium, I first consider notions of photography before the medium’s actual materialisation in the 1830s; these emerged alongside the latent desire to see the world as a picture ‘true to nature’ which predominated in literary fiction and experimental scientific texts. It informs us about how the medium was initially understood, discussed and defined, and offers a valuable insight into the ontology of the illuminated image (‘Photography before Photography’). Expanding upon André Bazin’s essay ‘The Ontology of the Photographic Image’, I consider the discourse of the early history of the medium to be vital in informing the ontological questions developed in the thesis. Taking photography’s early history as a point of departure, my research looks into the possible manifestations of thinking photographically, and asks whether we can only photograph what we know already. This relationship of the photographic image to the world frames my enquiry into the domain of photography. I talk about my photographic work by answering the questions: Can I only see what I name? (‘Naming’) How do I learn how to look? (‘Echo’) and Where can I find the photographic picture? (‘Doubt’). The title of the thesis refers to the speculative history of the medium and to my own photographic work. Like the nineteenth-century photographers who tried to photograph the spirit of a human being, my photographs aim to allude to what might not be apparent by evoking a vision of seeing things that are invisible. The expression ‘via fotografia’ is used as a method of making phenomena visible photographically. As a medium based on reality that can reflect the world, however visible or invisible that might be, photography continuously questions our perception of such reality (‘Picturing Thoughts’). Do we photograph what we see, or what we think and imagine? This is not to suggest that the acts of photographing and thinking are the same, but rather to propose that they are not separate from each other. Photographs, in that sense, are not experienced in terms of their appearance, but in terms of their continuous appearing.

Realizamos neste trabalho uma análise das aparições de Nossa Senhora no Brasil, buscando compreender o processo social e simbólico que sustenta a formação de convicções coletivas em torno das aparições que sempre tem seu início em testemunhos pessoais sobre visões de Nossa Senhora. Para isso partimos do estudo de caso realizado nas aparições de Maria na cidade de Jacareí, interior de São Paulo. Demonstramos o processo de construção destas manifestações, em que fatores de diferente ordem se mostraram fundamentais. Entre eles destacamos: as relações e conexões estabelecidas entre os atores e grupos envolvidos inserindo a aparição numa rede de manifestações marianas -; a peregrinação entre elas; a centralidade do movimento católica Renovação Carismática na organização dos eventos, disseminação de idéias e práticas e na modelagem simbólica dos fenômenos -; o papel desempenhado pela Igreja Católica na produção de idéias e crenças que servem como fonte de legitimidade para as aparições -; a modelagem simbólica das aparições fundamental para a atribuição de legitimidade ao fenômeno -, e a presença de elementos simbólicos de longa duração. Cada um desses temas foi desenvolvido ao longo dos quatro capítulos que compõem essa tese.The thesis analyses Our Ladys appearances in Brazil, trying to understand the social and symbolic process supporting the creation of collective beliefs about these appearances, a process that always start with personal witness about the appearances of Our Lady. In order to analyze that, we realize a case study in the city of Jacareí, São Paulo state. The thesis reveals the process in which these appearances occur, where different factors are fundamental. Among them we shall focus: 1) the relations and connections involving individuals and groups, inserting the apparitions in a net of Mary´s demonstrations, like pilgrimages; 2) the Catholic Church role in the production of ideas and beliefs which give legitimacy to the appearances; 3) the symbolic molding of theses appearances, which are fundamental to that legitimacy; 4) the presence of long terms symbolic elements. Each one of these topics was developed in a separate chapter.

Mais il revele egalement des constantes de la religiosite populaire du temps.

A systematic analysis of the documents wich concern the sixteenth century made possible the reconstitution of pilgrim's religious life. The cult of "santa maria de guadalupe" appears, in this collection, as a very particular one. It possesses a universal dimension, and has several miraculous specializations. But it reveals too constant characteristics of sixteenth century's popular religion. One of these characteristics is the evolution of pilgrimage and the end of medieval roaming. On the other hand, the relation with miraculous facts conduces to an increase of miracle's relates. The cult reveals also a clear difference between the devotion of popular and privileged classes. Finally, it shows, in spite of the influence of counter-reformation's ideas, the popular religion's great requirement of marvellous elements

Full textAbstract:
L'apparition de la Vierge et de Saint Jacques lors de la bataille du Cuzco en 1535 avait montré que dieu guidait les espagnols. Les miracles ne disparurent pas quand la conquête fut achevée. Accomplis essentiellement dans le cadre des images mariales, ils devinrent un véritable fait de société à partir des deux dernières décennies du seizième siècle. Ces miracles répondaient à des objectifs purement humains tout comme l'expansion ou la stagnation des cultes. Ces miracles s’inséraient, d'abord, dans le cadre de la stratégie des religieux chrétiens désireux de convaincre les Indiens en leur fournissant la preuve de visu de la vérité du message qu'ils diffusaient. Cependant, les miracles ne touchèrent pas seulement les Indiens de la région. Les Créoles les recherchaient également. En montrant que Marie avait choisi le Nouveau Monde, et tout spécialement le Pérou, pour faire irruption dans la vie des hommes, la pluie miraculeuse leur permettait de rejeter l'image négative dans laquelle les espagnols de métropole, les Gaghupines, cherchaient à les enfermer. Ils pouvaient donc revendiquer la place au sommet de la hiérarchie coloniale que ces derniers s'étaient octroyés. Résultats de la collusion entre les habitants du Pérou, qui y trouvaient leur propre intérêt, les autorités coloniales, car ils étaient facteurs de stabilité sociale à une époque ou l'exploitation des mines l'exigeait, et les religieux désireux de réussir leur stratégie d'évangélisation, ces miracles se transformèrent en pluie miraculeuseThe apparitions of the Holy Virgin and Saint Jacques during the battle of Cuzco in 1535 had demonstrated that should the need arise god was on the side of the spanish army. Then the miracles continued and they mostly took place within the frame of the images of the Holy Virgin, and they become a " fait de société " in the last two decades of the 16th century. As a matter of fact the miracles corresponded to purely human aims, in the same way as the cults exported or stagnated. First of all, such miracles were part of the strategy of the Roman Catholic priests who wished to convince the Indians of the truth of their message. Yet the Creoles were also interested. By showing that the Holy Virgin had chosen the New World, and more specifically Peru, to intervene in the lives of men, the miraculous rain enabled them to reject the negative live image to which the native spaniards, the Gachupines, were triying to limit them. They then could claim their place at the top of colonial hierarchy. The miracles, resulting from the collusion between the inhabitants of Peru - as it was their interest - the colonial authorities - who saw it them as a factor of social stability at a time when mining demanded it - and the priest- who wanted to make their preachings-, the miracles became a miraculous rain

Osborn, Holly F. "Apparitional Economies: Spectral Imagery in the Antebellum Imaginaton." UKnowledge, 2014. http://uknowledge.uky.edu/english_etds/12.
Full textAbstract:
Apparitional Economies is invested in both a historical consideration of economic conditions through the antebellum era and an examination of how spectral representations depict the effects of such conditions on local publics and individual persons. From this perspective, the project demonstrates how extensively the period’s literature is entangled in the economic: in financial devastation, in the boundaries of seemingly limitless progress, and in the standards of value that order the worth of commodities and the persons who can trade for them.
I argue that the space of the specter is a force of representation, an invisible site in which the uncertainties of antebellum economic and social change become visible. I read this spectral space in canonical works by Nathaniel Hawthorne, Edgar Allan Poe, Herman Melville, and Walt Whitman and in emerging texts by Robert Montgomery Bird, Theophilus Fisk, Fitz James O’Brien, and Edward Williams Clay.
Methodologically, Apparitional Economies moves through historical events and textual representation in two ways: chronologically with an attention to archival materials through the antebellum era (beginning with the specters that emerge with the Panic of 1837) and interpretively across the readings of a literary specter (as a space of lack and potential, as exchange, as transformation, and as the presence of absence). As a failed body and, therefore, a flawed embodiment of economic existence, the literary specter proves a powerful representation of antebellum social and financial uncertainties.

Full textAbstract:
Le phénomène de renversement de préférence est un biais systématique observé lorsque des options sont présentées dans différentes situations (e. G. , choix vs. Jugement). Ce travail de thèse se focalise sur les procédures utilisées afin de révéler les préférences, en faisant l'hypothèse d'un effet du mode d'évaluation (i. E. , évaluation qui implique une comparaison entre les options vs. évaluation qui n'implique pas de comparaison entre les options). Cinq expériences analysent des évaluations réalisées "paire par paire" vs. "une par une". Les sujets avaient à exprimer leurs préférences entre des billets à grande variance (BGV) et à petite variance (BPV), soit un choisissant un billet de loterie parmi deux, soit en leur attribuant un prix minimum de vente. Les résultats montrent que les BGV sont préférés à la fois en choix et en estimation de prix minimum de vente lorsque les billets sont évalués séparément avec une échelle de réponse numérique, alors que les BPV sont préférés à la fois en choix et en estimation de prix minimum de vente lorsque les billets sont évalués paire par paire avec une échelle de réponse binaire. De plus, les observations concernant les prises d'information (méthode d'auto-présentation segmentée) révèlent la présence d'effets d'ancrage et ajustement. De tels résultats confirment l'effet du mode d'évaluation dans l'émergence du phénomène de renversement de préférence. Ils suggèrent que les préférences dépendent de la façon dont les sujets sont amenés ou pas à comparer les options qu'ils doivent choisir ou estimer, indépendamment de la nature de l'échelle (i. E. , attraction vs. Prix minimum de vente) qui leur est demandé d'utiliser.

L'apparition des immunoglobulines monoclonales (m-igs) dans le serum est l'une des caracteristiques communes du vieillissement immunologique de toutes les especes etudiees. Dans ce rapport, nous decrivons d'une part une recherche sur la selection des cellules a l'origine des m-igs et d'autres part le travail visant a l'identification in situ des cellules secretant les m-igs. En utilisant les lignees de souris c57bl/6 (haute frequence de m-igs), m54 (-transgenique), xid (deficiente en lymphocytes b1), et par la technique d'electrophorese de serum suivie d'immunoblotting, nous avons pu demontrer que les m-igs sont selectionnees par leur partie variable et que la proliferation non specifique des cellules b n'influence pas l'apparition des m-igs. Nous avons egalement montre que les souris xid ne developpent pas de m-igs stables au cours du vieillissement. D'autres part, nous avons mis au point deux techniques d'etude in situ de la cellule produisant la m-igs. L'une par anti-idiotype, l'autre par pcr in situ, qui nous ont permis de montrer que la cellule secretant la m-igs est repartie dans la moelle osseuse (3-5%) et dans la rate (environ 200 cellules par coupe).

Full textAbstract:
Les défilés de mode mettent en scène des propositions visuelles sur les corps humains, habituellement ceux des mannequins minces. Dans le contexte contemporain, elles sont vantés comme des canons de beauté, mais d’autre part sont remises en question sur la réalité de leurs formes corporelles et la qualité de leur présence et de leur action sur les podiums: elles sont souvent vus comme des cintres de vêtements. Cependant sont eux qui conforment, avec les vêtements, des figures humaines, par des attitudes qui visent la composition des types de possibilités d’apparition. Notre étude se concentre dans le processus de ce mettre en forme, à travers de l’enquête sur les corps vêtus de défilés de mode, en utilisant comme exemples d'analyse quatre labels/créateurs brésiliens à la saison d'octobre 2016 de la São Paulo Fashion Week: Animale, Lab, Água de Coco et Ronaldo Fraga. Nous partons de la compréhension des visuels présentés dans des défilés de mode en tant que corps habillés, dans lesquels le corps et le vêtement travaillent ensemble pour la composition de la forme; et la capacité cinétique des corps et des vêtements, un élément qui dynamise les visuels. Cette activité réalisatrice des corps habillés dans les défilés de mode, leur action et mouvements corporels, sont de la compétence de leur dimension sensible, donc, en relation avec la culture et l'espace de manière intersubjective. Une telle réflexion nous invite à prendre en compte la relation des corps avec les types de défilés et ses éléments, tels que l'endroit, le son, les accessoires, toute l'atmosphère symbolique de la présentation, qui dirige les façons d'apparition des corps. Les corps habillés en défilés de mode se révèlent ainsi comme des formes complexes, sensibles et expressives des fuites corporellesThe fashion shows place to visuality dressing proposals on human bodies, generally those of the thin models. In the contemporary context, sometimes they are praised as canons of beauty, and at other times they are questioned about the reality of their corporal shapes and the quality of their presence and action on the runways: they are often seen as clothing hangers. But they are the ones who, allied to the clothes, conform human figures, in attitudes that aim the composition of possibilities of apparition. Our study investigates the process of this put in form, by examining the dressed bodies in fashion shows, using as examples for analysis the bodies in runways of four brazilian brands/designers of the October 2016 season of São Paulo Fashion Week: Animale, Lab, Água de Coco and Ronaldo Fraga. We start from the comprehension of the visuals presented in fashion shows as dressed bodies, in which body and clothes work together for the composition of the form in possibilities of combinations; and the kinetic capacity of body and clothing, an element that dynamizes the human visual. In this sense, we look for this realization of the dressed bodies in fashion shows through their action and their body movements, which are the competence of their sensitive dimension, related, therefore, with culture and space in an intersubjective way. Such a thought urges us to take into account, in this studied put in form, the relation of bodies with the types of fashion shows and with their elements, such as location, sound, props, the whole symbolic atmosphere of the elaborated presentation. The dressed bodies in fashion shows are thus revealed as complex, sensitive and expressive shapes and forms of body leaks
Os desfiles de moda colocam à visualidade propostas vestimentares sobre corpos humanos, geralmente os das modelos magras. No contexto contemporâneo, ora são elogiadas como cânones de beleza, ora questionadas quanto à realidade de suas formas corporais e à qualidade de sua presença e ação nas passarelas: são tidas, em muitos momentos, como cabides de roupas. Mas são elas que, aliadas às roupas, conformam figuras humanas, em atitudes que miram a composição de possibilidades de aparição. O nosso estudo se debruça sobre o processo desse por em forma, investigando os corpos vestidos de desfiles de moda, utilizando como exemplos para análise quatro marcas/designers brasileiros da edição de outubro de 2016 da São Paulo Fashion Week: Animale, Lab, Água de Coco e Ronaldo Fraga. Partimos da compreensão das visualidades apresentadas em desfiles de moda como corpos vestidos, em que corpo e roupa operam juntos para a composição da forma em possibilidades de combinações; e a capacidade cinética de corpo e roupa, elemento que dinamiza a visualidade. Nesse sentido, atentamos para essa realização dos corpos vestidos nos desfiles de moda por meio de sua ação e movimentos corporais, que são da competência de sua dimensão sensível, se relacionando, portanto, com a cultura e o espaço de maneira intersubjetiva. Tal fato nos instiga a ter em conta, no por em forma estudado, a relação dos corpos com os tipos de desfiles e seus elementos, como locação, som e adereços, toda a atmosfera simbólica da apresentação elaborada, que direciona as maneiras de aparição do corpo. Os corpos vestidos de desfiles de moda se desvelam, assim, como formas complexas, sensíveis e expressivas de vazamentos corporais

Full textAbstract:
S’inscrivant dans la continuité des études menées sur le Nord-Pas-de-Calais, cette thèse vise à mettre en avant l’apparition et le développement du paysage septentrional dans la peinture française au XIXe siècle. Si des études de ce genre ont déjà été réalisées pour la Normandie et la Bretagne, il n’en est pas de même pour le Nord-Pas-de-Calais. Ce travail inédit, mis en relation avec un contexte historique -visant pour l’essentiel à étudier et cerner les déplacements des artistes au sein de la région-, culturel et artistique dense, permettra de comprendre dans quelles circonstances et de quelles manières se développent ces réalisations. L’étude vise également à cerner et définir les motifs emblématiques de la région tels les beffrois, les moulins, les espaces dunaires, les marais … L’étude reposera un corpus d’œuvres, formant un catalogue, représentatif du paysage septentrional au XIXe siècleIn addition to the many studies of the Nord-Pas-de-Calais, this thesis aims to highlight the emergence and development of the northern landscape in French paintings of the nineteenth century. Even though there have already been some studies done regarding the Normandy and Brittany regions, it is not the case for the Nord-Pas-de-Calais. This never published before research combined with the historical context aims to study and identify the movement of artists within the region whose artistic culture is dense. This will help us understand when and how were developed these achievements. The study also aims to identify and define the emblematic patterns of the region such as belfries, mills, dune areas, marshes ... The study will use a collection of works, forming a catalogue representative of the northern landscape in the nineteenth century

Full textAbstract:
La thèse propose, dans une perpective anthropologique, une réinterrogation des données archéologiques de l'Europe du sud-est. On peut voir, en effet, dès le Paléolithique supérieur, que des formes géométriques interprétées comme étant la conceptualisation d'un Sacré Féminin Vie, sont gravées sur des figurines féminines. On constate, de plus, que cette même conceptualisation du paléolithique se retrouve dans des communautés néolithiques, qui ont réalisé, pour la première fois une organisation géométrique de l'espace. La dynamique du Sacré-Féminin-Vie, aurait conduit à une ritualisation du principe de vie par un travail rituel. La forme des maisons présentait, en effet, une analogie, voire une identité, avec le corps de la femme et du vase, tout deux réceptacles. La maison apparaissait donc comme étant le corps de la divinité, à l'image de celui de la femme. Cette analogie se retrouverait également, à une plus grande échelle, dans un ensemble, géométriquement conçu, de maisons que nous avons nommé la Ville-Vie du Néolithique. Cette forme urbaine a précédé celle de la Ville-Autorité qui incarnait l'espace sacré du pouvoir d'un principe masculin.

Full textAbstract:
Des le xixe siecle, la presence du docker derange sur les quais marseillais ; il concurrence le protefaix et bouleverse les traditions. Tres vite son image est negative dans la societe marseillaise et la diversite ethnique accentue encore ce processus. L'instabilite, la precarite et l'absence de statut sont les specificites des ouvriers des quais de la cite phoceenne. L'histoire du docker est celle d'un milieu populaire plutot defavorise et en voie d'enracinement dans les annees 1920. Non encadres, sans garantie, ils se lancent tres tot dans la combativite. Ils representent a marseille un enjeu economique, social et politique. Economique quand les arrets de travail ont pour corollaire la baisse du trafic portuaire, social en raison du role du syndicat et de l'influence qu'ils peuvent avoir sur les ouvriers de la ville et sur les dockers des autres ports. Et enfin l'enjeu politique est l'aspect dominant des dockers marseillais dans l'entre-deux-guerres. Marseille a une vie politique mouvementee et cette agitation envahit les quais : c'est l'affrontement entre les forces de gauche et les sabianistes a travers les dockers. Puis les communistes parviennent a dominer les quais a partir de 1935 et le syndicat des dockers devient puissant. Cette force leur permet d'obtenir des acquis de 1935 a 1939 et la voie vers le statut se dessine. Le docker a un role strategique dans l'economie et le gouvernement decide de lui accorder un statut pendant la seconde guerre mondiale pour que le trafic reprenne des la fin des hostilites. La loi du 28 juin 1941 donne au docker un statut mais l'enferme dans une corporation : c'est un retour au xixe siecle avec la societe des portefaixSince the 19th century dockers working on the marseilles docks have been troublesome. They started competing with the porters and consequently traditions were turned upside town. They were quickly negatively perceived by the town society and the various communities made it even worse. Instability, precarity and the lack of definite status were the characteristics of the people working on the marseilles docks. The history of dockers comes along with that of a fairly deprived lower class that was gradually settling in the twenties. Unsupervised without any guarantee they started fighting for their rights very early. In marseilles they soon became a social political and economical stake : an economical one when strikes entailed a decrease in the port traffic, a social one because of their possible influence on the other town workers and the dockers of other harbours. And most of all their political role prevailed on the period spanning between the two world wars. In those days marseilles had a rather agitated political life and this unrest pervaded the docks : through the dockers it is the struggle between the left wing forces and the sabianists which took place. From 1935 the communists succeeded in ruling over the docks and their trade-union became most powerful. This strength allowed the dockers to gain advantages from 1936 to 1939 and the idea of a status became apparent. The dockers had a strategic role to play in the economy and the government decided to grant them a status during world war ii so that the port activities should start again as soon as the conflict was over. The law, passed on the 28 june 1941, gave the dockers a status but at the same time it confined them in a corporation : it is a return to the 19th century porter's society

La compréhension de la liquidation des artefacts humains des collections du Muséum d'Histoire naturelle (1797) nécessite de relier objets et savoirs. Il s'agira de voir en quoi les conditions de production politique des objets scientifiques, mises au jour dans les expéditions maritimes et les saisies révolutionnaires, affectent les classifications naturalistes. Pour cela, deux séries correspondent : d'une part celle de la dimension cognitive des collections autour des questions de méthode, pour un savoir naturaliste qui classe avec et au travers d'objets, et d'autre part, un entre-deux colonial, depuis la perte des possessions de l'Amérique jusqu'à la prise d'Alger qui explore le Pacifique et l'annexe. Exclure les objets des Autres ordonnerait le temps long de l'histoire de la nature, tout en reléguant le primitif aux marges de l'Histoire, voué à disparaître ou à être colonisé. Car derrière ce grand partage d'expulsion, le regard sur l'Autre se renverse, passant du sauvage au primitifThe comprehension of the relegation of the human artifacts from the collections of the Museum d'Histoire naturelle (1797) requires connecting objects and knowledge. This issue understands better how the conditions of political production of scientific objects, revealed during the maritime expeditions and the revolutionary seizures, affect classifications. Two series will be connected : on the one hand the cognitive dimension of the collections raised by methodological problems, from a naturalist point of view which classifies through objects and, on the other hand, from the loss of the American possessions until the catch of Algiers, a colonial interval, which explores the Pacific and colonize it. The exclusion of the man-made objects would structure the deep time of the history of nature, while relegating the primitive in the margins of History, condemned to vanish or to be colonized. Behind this relegation, the vision of the Other changes turning from the savage into the primitive

Les remaniements chromosomiques tels que les délétions, les duplications ou les insertions de rétrotransposons Ty1 représentent des événements moteurs dans l’évolution. Ils sont à l’origine de la variabilité inter- et intra-espèces. Cependant, l’influence des variations intra-espèces ainsi que les mécanismes à l’origine de la formation des remaniements chromosomiques sont encore peu connus. Au laboratoire, un crible génétique basé sur un allèle particulier du gène URA2 a été développé permettant ainsi de sélectionner des révertants porteurs de remaniements chromosomiques spontanés chez la levure S. Cerevisiae. Afin d’appréhender l’impact du contexte génétique sur l’apparition des remaniements chromosomiques, nous avons comparé deux souches de S. Cerevisiae utilisées en laboratoire à savoir la souche FL100 et la souche de référence séquencée S288c. On a ainsi pu montrer que la variabilité intra-espèces a une influence sur les types de remaniements obtenus et que cette variation est due à une différence d’activité des rétrotransposons Ty1. L’étude des mécanismes permettant l’apparition des réarrangements a également été réalisée. Des souches de levure ont été construites portant des mutations dans des gènes dont les produits sont impliqués dans la voie de recombinaison homologue (RAD52 et RAD59) et dans celle du non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) (YKU80 et LIG4). Les résultats obtenus suggèrent qu’un mécanisme de NHEJ indépendant de la protéine Yku80p est impliqué dans l’apparition des délétions et des duplications. Enfin, nous avons appréhendé la variabilité inter-espèces et l’évolution des génomes par l’étude in silico de deux familles multigéniques codant pour des perméasesChromosomal rearrangements such as deletions, duplications or Ty1 retrotransposons insertions represent key events in evolution processes. They are responsible for inter- and intra-species variability. However, little is known about the influence of the intra-species variations and the mechanisms responsible for the formation of chromosomal rearrangements. In our laboratory, a genetic screening based on a particular allele of the URA2 gene was developed allowing the selection of revertants carrying spontaneous chromosomal rearrangements in yeast S. Cerevisiae. In order to understand the impact of the genetic background on the occurrence of chromosomal rearrangements, we compared two laboratory strains of S. Cerevisiae, the FL100 strain and the sequenced reference strain S288c. It was thus showed that intra-species variability has an influence on the type of obtained rearrangements and that the variation between the two backgrounds is due to a difference of activity for the Ty1 retrotransposons. The study of the mechanisms allowing the occurrence of rearrangements in genomes was also carried out. Strains of S. Cerevisiae mutated for genes whose products are involved in homologous recombination (RAD52 and RAD59) or non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) (YKU80 et LIG4) were constructed. The results obtained during this study suggest that a Yku80p-independent NHEJ mechanism is involved in the appearance of deletions and duplications. Finally, we considered inter-species variability and genome evolution by an in silico study of two multigenic families coding for permeases
