La siguiente investigación lleva a cabo un análisis iconográfico de las representaciones murales datadas entre el 350-650 D.C. del Jaguar como Símbolo Político-Sagrado en relación a un grupo de elite y su complejo temático, planteando como hipótesis que dentro de las representaciones murales de Señores de Alto Rango en Teotihuacán datadas entre la fase Xolalpan (350-550 D.C.) y la fase Metepec (550-650 D.C.), aparecería un conjunto temático de elite que adoptaría al Jaguar en su condición de criatura mítica como símbolo político-sagrado para la definición y particularización de sus funciones estatales, al interior de un discurso de poder de Estado que se habría caracterizado por su naturaleza corporativa y la tutela sagrada del Dios de la Lluvia.

Monumental art of the Maya incorporates figural imagery and hieroglyphic texts to document dynastic and mythical history. One particular monument tells us that near the end of April in 752 A.D., Bird Jaguar IV was inaugurated as ruler of the Mayan city now known as Yaxchilan. Investigation of his sculptural programmes reveals a multiplicity of innovative solutions for Bird Jaguar's unparalleled problems in validating a tenuous claim to rulership of Yaxchilan. It appears that in order to compensate for his insufficient genealogical claim, Bird Jaguar fabricated a series of ritual events which proclaimed his political legitimacy. This study examines the intended integration of two parallel systems of communication: the visual and hieroglyphic languages of the Maya. Analysis shows how Bird Jaguar's artists presented symbolic references which manipulated the past history, justified the current history, and established the future political history of Yaxchilan.

Investigamos, neste trabalho, o romance O rastro do Jaguar (2009), do jornalista mineiro Murilo Carvalho, premiado pela editora portuguesa Leya, em 2008. Nosso objetivo foi investigar, na construção textual do romance, a viagem da personagem Pierre Saint'Hilaire em busca de sua identidade. O rastro do Jaguar é uma narrativa que se sobrepõe em dois tempos: o presente, em que o jornalista Pereira, às vésperas do ano 1900, rememora sua amizade com Pierre na França, e o segundo, que se dá no Brasil, nos contextos da guerra do Império brasileiro contra os índios Botocudos e da Guerra do Paraguai. A obra focaliza o indígena como elemento simultaneamente marginalizado pela História e agente do processo da colonização do país. À medida que Pierre vai se descobrindo como o “outro”, ao se identificar com suas raízes primitivas, ele passa de espectador a agente e assume o espírito do Jaguar, que conduzirá o povo Guarani em busca da Terra sem Males. Esta dissertação compõe-se de três capítulos. No primeiro, abordamos a relação entre Literatura e História (Antonio Esteves, Marilene Weinhardt, Linda Hutcheon e outros), enfatizando aspectos do romance histórico no Brasil e nos detendo em dois fatos históricos, muito representados na Literatura, revisitados em O rastro do Jaguar: a guerra de resistência dos Botocudos (Manuela C. Cunha, Márcia Amantino e outros) e a Guerra do Paraguai (Julio Chiavenato, Mary del Priore e outros). No segundo, fazemos considerações sobre Literatura e impressões de viagem (Fernando Cristóvão, Tzvetan Todorov e outros), enfocando aspectos dos tradicionais relatos de viagens dos exploradores europeus dos séculos XVI ao XIX e das impressões de viagens de autores contemporâneos. Enfim, no terceiro, analisamos a busca da personagem Pierre Saint’Hilaire pela sua identidade Guarani.
We investigated in this work, the novel O rastro do Jaguar (2009), by the Minas Gerais born journalist Murilo Carvalho, awarded by Leya, a Portuguese book publishing company, in 2008. Our objective was to investigate, in the textual construction of the novel, the journey of the character Pierre Saint'Hilaire in search for his identity. Rastro do Jaguar is a narrative that overlaps in two periods: the present, in which the journalist Pereira, on the eve of 1900, recalls his friendship with Pierre in France, and the second, which occurs in Brazil, in the contexts of War of the Brazilian Empire against the Botocudo Indians and the War of Paraguay. The work focuses on the indigenous as an element simultaneously marginalized by History and agent of the process of colonization of the country. As Pierre discovers himself as the "other," in identifying himself with his primitive roots, he passes from spectator to agent and assumes the spirit of the Jaguar, who will lead the Guarani people in search of the Earth without evils. This dissertation is composed of three chapters. In the first one, we discuss the relationship between Literature and History (Antonio Esteves, Marilene Weinhardt, Linda Hutcheon and others), emphasizing aspects of the historical novel in Brazil and tackling two historical facts, much represented in Literature, revisited in O rastro do Jaguar: Botocudos’ resistance war (Manuela C. Cunha, Márcia Amantino and others) and the War of Paraguay (Julio Chiavenato, Mary del Priore and others). In the second chapter, we make considerations about literature and impressions of the journey (Fernando Cristóvão, Tzvetan Todorov and others), focusing on aspects of the traditional journey accounts of European explorers from the 16 th to the 19 th century and the travel impressions of contemporary authors. Finally, in the third, we analyze the search of Pierre Saint'Hilaire for his Guarani identity.

This dissertation investigates the presence of the song of the sirens by Homer in "Meu tio o Iauaretê ", by Guimarães Rosa, using as theoretical reference the studies of Blanchot (2005), Oliveira (2008),), Agamben (2014) and Nogueira (2014), among others. In the wake of the interpretation of Blanchot, which traces an analogy between the song of the sirens and the literature making, every writer repeats the deed of Homeric’s character, since the narrative is an unpredictable and infinite searching movement, which makes present the navigation from the actual song to the imaginary song. We question whether there is a resumption of the song of the sirens in the studied narrative, with the goal of specifying how it happens and what its significance is, assuming that the jaguanhenhém song erupts from the threshold experience of metamorphosis between human and inhuman voice/song; portuguese, tupi and animal noise; articulated and unarticulated language. After analysis, we have come to the conclusion that this narrative stages the act of narrating itself, using a language between human-inhuman, in the process of enchantment, seduction and perdition of the triad author-narrator-reader
Esta dissertação investiga a presença do canto das sereias homéricas em “Meu Tio o Iauaretê”, de Guimarães Rosa, tendo como referencial teórico os estudos de Blanchot (2005), Oliveira (2008),), Agamben (2014) e Nogueira (2014), dentre outros. Na esteira da interpretação blanchotiana, que traça uma analogia entre o canto das sereias e o fazer literário, todo escritor repetiria o feito da personagem homérica, uma vez que a narrativa é um movimento imprevisível e infinito de busca, que presentifica a navegação do canto real ao canto imaginário. Questionamos se há uma retomada do canto das sereias na narrativa estudada, com o objetivo de elencar como isto se dá e qual o seu significado, partindo da hipótese de que o canto jaguanhenhém irrompe da experiência liminar de metamorfose entre voz/canto humano e inumano; português, tupi e ruído animal; língua articulada e não articulada. A conclusão a que chegamos, após a análise, é a de que, nesta narrativa roseana, encena-se o gesto do próprio ato de narrar, em uma linguagem entre humano-inumano, no processo de encantamento, sedução e perdição da tríade autor-narrador-leitor

La présente étude se place sous le signe de l'axe Milan-Paris, autour duquel, dans l'après- guerre, se tissent les relations entre Enrico Baj, Edouard Jaguer, et, aussi, entre le mouvement Phases et le movimento nucleare. Pour mieux appréhender ces échanges, qui constituent l'enjeu de notre recherche, nous avons subdivisé notre thèse en deux parties visant à définir les perspectives autonomes, mais complémentaires, dans lesquelles se développent les parcours culturels de Baj et de Jaguer. Aussi, avons-nous analysé, en un premier temps, le contexte artistique milanais (1938-1958), dans lequel se forme Baj, le movimento nucleare, dont l'Italien fut le fondateur avec Sergio Dangelo, ainsi que l'oeuvre de Baj, de 1938 à 1972. La seconde partie représente la contribution la plus significative et innovatrice du présent travail et porte, d'une part, sur l'étude de Phases d'un point de vue théorique et formel (relations avec Cobra, le surréalisme, Gaston Bachelard, les nucléaires, l'abstraction lyrique, l'informel, les recherches des années 60); de l'autre, elle porte sur l'analyse organique des rapports de collaboration qui se sont établis, à partir de 1954, entre Baj et le fondateur de Phases, Edouard Jaguer, desquels ressortent d'importantes problématiques autour d'expositions, manifestations, manifestes, activités communes. Dans cette même partie nous soulignons certains aspects inédits des liaisons Baj - surréalisme, notamment la communauté d'idées et, aussi, les différences d'orientation qui caractérisent la participation de l'artiste aux initiatives surréalistes. Cette succession nous a permis tout d'abord d'asseoir les grandes lignes directrices de Phases et, donc, de les lier, en un second temps, avec la coopération Baj-Jaguer. Celle-ci, pour son compte, constitue à la fois la partie finale de notre thèse et le "clou" de notre étude de la correspondance qui s'échangea entre les deux hommes de 1954 à la fin des années 80.

Large carnivores in human care have been reported to engage in stereotypic behaviors. Such behavior is thought to be correlated with high stress levels, in part, due to captive environments limiting opportunities for functional consequences and environmental stimuli. Moreover, there are several arguments stating that stereotypic behaviors can be indicative of poor welfare, as they can often have severe negative emotional and physical effects on the animal. The first portion of this study included a five-phase treatment analysis which evaluated whether environmental manipulations decrease the frequency of stereotypic behaviors including pacing, over-grooming and tail-sucking exhibited by a single male jaguar housed at Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens. The aim of the present study was to evaluate possible environmental variables that were reported by staff as likely variables maintaining or promoting stereotypic behavior. Data collection occurred during a 10-week evaluation and followed an ABCAD reversal design. Both behavioral data and fecal glucocorticoid metabolite levels were analyzed. The second portion of this analysis included a multi-institutional survey to assess the prevalence of the stereotypic behaviors exhibited by zoo-housed jaguars in North American AZA-accredited institutions. Results from the behavioral assessment revealed a decrease in stereotypic behaviors with the implementation of treatment conditions. Hormone analyses revealed that stereotypic pacing is not presently correlated with higher stress levels for this animal. Finally, survey results revealed that a significant portion of the North American jaguar population engages in stereotypic behaviors. Further analyses are necessary to identify potential patterns or environmental predictors for the development of stereotypic behaviors.

The Jaguar motor company in the 1980s under the leadership of John Egan attained an iconic status as a modem, revitalised company, being hailed as one of the great success stories of the decade. This view portrayed Jaguar as having resolved the quality and industrial relations problems that had developed during the period of the BL stewardship from 1968 to 1980, and which in consequence achieved record levels of sales volumes, and profits, before declining again after 1986. This thesis presents a revisionist view of the problems suffered by Jaguar during the 1980s, and the reasons why the company under the Egan management failed to resolve these. Building on the previous work of Lewchuk and Whisler it examines Jaguar's deficiencies in management, industrial relations, engineering, production, product quality, and marketing. Moreover, it reveals how these deficiencies were masked by a clever public relations programme by Jaguar which concealed both its failure to address many of its inherited problems, and the reasons for its decline after the launch of the new saloon car in 1986. There have been no academic works that have focused on Jaguar, and little has been written about Jaguar's quality problems, and the part played by its inadequate engineering function, under Egan. This thesis, therefore, might be seen as filling an obvious gap in the historiography of the British motor industry in general, and Jaguar in particular. The research to a large extent has been an exercise in oral history. However, the information obtained from interviews with an elite group of former executives of Ford or Jaguar, and other informed individuals, has been triangulated with published and unpublished primary sources such as Jaguar's Reports and Accounts, press releases, newspaper reports and articles, and official statistics.

The objective of this research is to enhance the effectiveness of the new product development at Jaguar Land Rover by attending to the incongruities between the perceived organisational culture and the ecosystem in which the teams operate. The inquiry is aligned with both Donaldson's structural contingency theory (2001) and Syed's (2015) reflections regarding psychological alignment. The contention of the research is that an alternative operating model enables the teams to thrive and relish the uncertain, complex environment in which they now operate and hence improve their satisfaction and wellbeing whilst delivering increased value for both the business and the consumers (Davis, 2016a). This paper describes the rationale and the approach taken to embed an operating model which liberates the capabilities of the 'knowledge worker' community (Drucker, 1999) as opposed to the apparent Scientific Management (Taylor, 1914) bureaucratic efficiency model, which had previously been relevant. The research methodology incorporates Research Oriented Action Research (Eden and Huxham, 1996) in order to accommodate the unknowable outcomes and embedded paradoxes. The incorporation of a neurological metaphor attends to the innate human behaviours and social dynamics, whilst Dissipative Structure Theory (Prigogine and Allen, 1982) and the concept of panarchy (Garmestani et al., 2008) expands the traditional hierarchical perspective. The joint inquiry undertaken during an internship at Airbus Defence and Space corroborated the notion that an agile operating model could be realised for the creation of complex systems with significant hardware content and long lead times. The investigation also merges the constructive lean/agile values and principles from other sectors that are facing similar disruption in their ecosystems. The adoption of the principles that support self-determination (Ryan and Deci, 2000) result in reframing the participants' beliefs or "theories of action" (Argyris, 1995) by revising their experiences, hence a reduction in the observable stress and a verifiable increase in the delivery of valuable outcomes. The implications of the research spans both academic interest and real world utility regarding the co-creation of valuable knowledge through the alignment of the social dynamics of the participants and the methodology for progressing volatile problem situations with the ecosystems in which they find themselves.

Esta pesquisa analisa o filme Jaguar, dirigido por Jean Rouch, filmado em 1957 e finalizado em 1967, cujo tema são as migrações temporárias entre a então colônia francesa de Níger e a então colônia inglesa da Gold Coast, atual Gana. Para essa análise são trabalhados os conceitos, assim como suas relações, de cine-transe, como estabelecido por Jean Rouch, de aura, definido por Walter Benjamin, dentro das possibilidades da interpretação imaginadas pela obra de Paul Ricoeur. Ao final, se indaga se a interpretação do filme permite afirmar se ele proporciona uma experiência aurática ao espectador. _______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
This research analyses the film Jaguar, directed by Jean Rouch, filmed in 1957 and finished in 1967, whose subject are the temporary migrations between the then french colony of Niger and the then english colony of Gold Coast, the current Gana. For this analysis, the concepts, and their relations, of cine-transe, as estabilished by Jean Rouch, and aura, as defined by Walter Benjamin, are worked in the interpretation possibilities imagined by the work of Paul Ricoeur. At the end, the research questions if the film interpretation allows to assert that he, the film, provides an auratic experience to the viewer.

The jaguars (Panthera onca) of Tortuguero National Park, Costa Rica, sometimes kills and eats green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas), they also, though less often, kill and eat leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea). The three species are considered endangered and are listed in CITES. It was the aim of this study to find out more about the jaguars behaviour in the area. To discern any patterns of jaguar and turtle activity on the beach the number of tracks per eighth of a mile was recorded on a daily basis for 26 days and then analyzed. It was also considered to be of interest to determine how many jaguars could be responsible for the predation of sea turtles. In addition to this average beach width was measured for each eighth of a mile. There was a noticeable difference in jaguar activity on the beach between days of recording. Analysis found that the beach width could possibly have a small positive effect on jaguar activity. No correlation was found between jaguar and turtle activity. It is believed that the reason that there was no correlation between jaguar activity and turtle activity was due to most of the tracks used to estimate turtle activity had originated from leatherback turtles, which are not as often predated by jaguars as the green turtle. An estimation of five or six jaguars was made using photographs of pugmarks and a method of track discrimination together with information from personnel from the Jalova station.

A tese de doutoramento aqui apresentada tem por objeto de estudo o romance O Ateneu, de Raul Pompéia, publicado em 1888 em folhetim pela Gazeta de Notícias e, meses mais tarde, em volume, pela tipografia do mesmo jornal. Estuda-se o processo narrativo da obra a partir de uma discussão inicial de sua recepção crítica, em que se observam três tendências interpretativas distintas: uma primeira de viés biográfico, bastante comum até a década de 1940; uma segunda, de viés social, iniciada logo após a anterior, e continuada ainda hoje; e uma última, de viés revisionista, mais atual, pautada na análise de aspectos até então considerados acessórios pela crítica. Dentre estes aspectos, está o tratamento cada vez mais aprofundado da narração autodiegética e do memorialismo latente já no subtítulo do romance – “Crônica de saudades”. Para tanto, discute-se a seguir a natureza teórica da narrativa de memórias, levantando-se diversos textos de teoria da narrativa como embasamento teórico da exposição. Propõe-se, assim, o uso de uma terminologia que busca categorizar em três grandes grupos as narrativas de memórias, de acordo com sua orientação mais voltada para o passado da ação – “narrativa retrospectiva” –, para o presente da narração – “narrativa presentificativa” – ou para o processo de leitura e recepção das memórias – “narrativa prospectiva”. A análise posterior de diversos elementos da narração d’O Ateneu chega à conclusão de que o romance de Pompéia representa um exemplo acabado de “narrativa prospectiva”, em que o narrador manipula a infância vivida no internato para fazer-se de vítima do sistema, e, assim, reverter a lógica de opressão a que fora submetido no Ateneu
The present thesis has for its main objective the study of O Ateneu, by Raul Pompeia, a novel published as a feuilleton in Gazeta de Notícias in 1888 and printed a few months later in book format at the offices of the same newspaper. Starting with an initial discussion of its critical reception, in which are regarded three different interpretative tendencies – a “biographical” one, commonly found until 1940; a “social” one, started around 1940 and still active nowadays; and a “revisionist” one, the most current tendency, on the analysis of many aspects of the novel regarded so far as of a lesser importance – it is emphasized the evaluation of its autodiegetic narration and of its latent memoirism, already foreseen in the novel’s subtitle – “Crônica de saudades”. The theoretical nature of memoirist narrative is discussed afterwards with the support of a variety of theoretical texts. Finally, a terminology that arranges three major groups of memoiristic narratives, according to their orientation towards the past of the diegesis – “retrospective narrative” –, the present of the narration – “presentificative narrative” – or the reading process and the reception of the memoirs – “prospective narrative” – is propounded. The analysis of important elements of O Ateneu’s narration concludes that Pompeia’s novel represents a perfect example of a “prospective narrative”, in which the narrator manipulates the remembrance of his childhood to perform the role of a victim, therefore reversing the logic of oppression to which he was subdued in Ateneu

The control of the noise and vibration generated by an automobile is referred to as Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) engineering. It involves identifying the design detail required to reduce the noise and vibration inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle to levels that are acceptable to the customer. It also involves delivering an engine or a powertrain sound character that is both pleasing to the customer and that suits the character of the vehicle. Tuning the sound generated by a vehicle to deliver a particular character is referred to as Sound Quality Engineering. This document summarizes the work of the EngD research programme that was aimed at developing a structured process for engineering the Powertrain Sound Quality of an automobile. The need for developing a Sound Quality Engineering Process at Jaguar Cars was identified through a review of customer evaluations of the sound in Jaguar's vehicles and those of its competitors. This review established that Jaguar's existing vehicles were trailing the leading competition in terms of the delivery of Powertrain Sound Quality. The reason for this shortfall was that the NVH Department at Jaguar did not have a focus on delivering the customer requirements. Without this focus there was no means of using the customer level requirements, for Sound Quality to drive the vehicle design process. The EngD research programme resulted in the formulation and implementation of a Sound Quality Engineering Process at Jaguar Cars that addressed this need. The first part of the research programme involved developing a means of quantifying the differences in the subjective Sound Quality character perceived by the customer. It was established that the subjective nature of the Powertrain Sound Quality could be represented by two underlying dimensions; a measure of the degree of Refinement and a measure of degree of Powerfulness. An assessment technique was developed that enabled the subjective Sound Quality character for a given vehicle to be quantified through its location within a 2-Dimensional Sound Quality Space, the axes of which were defined by each of the two underlying dimensions of Sound Quality. This 2- Dimensional Sound Quality Space provided the means of quantifying the differences in the Sound Quality characters for all of the vehicles competing in the luxury vehicle sectors. It was applied to define subjective Sound Quality targets for all of the new vehicle programmes at Jaguar Cars. These targets identified the required improvements to each of the two underlying dimensions of Sound Quality needed to address the shortfalls in Jaguar Cars' existing vehicles. The second part of the research programme involved identifying the key acoustic features within the sound signatures of Jaguar's vehicles that were responsible for determining the differences in subjective perception between these vehicles and their competitors. The changes to these key acoustic features were related to the required improvements to each of the two dimensions of Sound Quality that were established from the subjective target setting process. The final part of the research programme involved developing techniques that linked these key acoustic features to the noise sources and paths that were responsible for generating them. Through this link it was possible to establish the changes to these noise sources and paths that were necessary to deliver the required changes to the key acoustic features. In this way the required improvements to each of the two underlying dimensions of Sound Quality were used to define the vehicle design specification at the concept stage of the vehicle development programme and consequently drive the vehicle design process. The ability to link the subjective customer level requirements for Sound Quality to the design detail specification has overcome the previously identified shortfall within the NVH development process at Jaguar Cars. The techniques developed during the EngD research programme were formulated into a Sound Quality Engineering Process. Although the process was developed for Jaguar Cars the findings from the research and the techniques developed have since been applied by the different brands within the Ford Motor Company. Within Jaguar Cars the process has been implemented across all of the new vehicle programmes. It has directly resulted in significantly improved Sound Quality characters in the new vehicles that have been recently introduced to the luxury vehicle market.

Population estimates of jaguar (Panthera onca) are important for conservation strategies such as ruCN classification, tracking population trends and establishing protected areas. Estimates produced using camera traps can suffer from a lack of reliability due to the spatial and temporal variations that are possible when deploying camera grids in the field. This PhD examined factors that influence jaguar abundance and density estimates produced from camera trap surveys, and how estimates could be improved upon. The Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary, Belize, an area known to support a healthy jaguar population was chosen as the study site. Closed models and a Bayesian spatially explicit capture-recapture (SECR) method were examined. First, camera trapping was modified to produce closed model estimates from areas without trails. Second, temporal issues of survey length, timing and population openness, and spatial factors such as camera density and location were investigated. Finally, performance ofthe SECR method was compared with closed models, and questions of sample size, survey timing and location sensitivity examined. Camera trapping of Neotropical cats is rarely performed in areas without trails. A modified strategy was proposed which placed cameras only on watercourses, and results compared with a concurrent trail-based survey. Jaguar densities were higher on watercourses than on trails (watercourses: 10.4 ± 3.75 S.E.; trails: 6.4 ± 1.50 S.E. jaguars 100 km"). Capture rates of jaguar and ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) did not differ between areas, but were lower on watercourses for puma (Puma coneolor). Watercourse cameras recorded higher jaguar capture rates than those on new trails, suggesting that watercourses be preferred when positioning cameras. Jaguar capture rates were lower during the day on trails, but not on watercourses, and trapping success was improved by placing cameras where sign had been detected, and where surrounding gradients were steepest. The strategy proved appropriate for jaguar and ocelot, and is recommended for future studies in areas without trails. Most camera trap studies of big cats are one-off surveys that vary in length. Survey timing and length, and population closure were investigated as factors that may compromise the reliability of abundance estimates, with estimates generated from surveys of different start times and lengths. For longer durations, estimates were constant until a transient period was encountered where they became higher (> 3 x) and less stable.

O depósito Jaguar representa uma descoberta importante de Ni de origem hidrotermal e está localizado na porção sudoeste da Província Mineral de Carajás no estado do Pará. Depósitos hidrotermais de Ni são raros e geralmente possuem menor importância econômica, quando comparados com depósitos de Ni-Cu-PGE de origem magmática. No entanto, o depósito Jaguar possui recursos preliminares de 92 Mt @ 0.65 % Ni (cut-off 0.4% Ni) e possui potencial para se tornar um depósito de classe mundial. O depósito possui muitas características comuns aos depósitos IOCG de Carajás. O depósito Jaguar está hospedado em rochas granito-gnáissicas da Suíte Plaquê e Complexo Xingu, na porção norte e em rochas subvulcânicas félsicas do Supergrupo Itacaiúnas, na porção sul. Encontra-se encaixado ao longo de zonas de alteração hidrotermal, controladas estruturalmente por falhamentos regionais, de direção W-NW, e por zonas de cisalhamento dúcteis-rúpteis. Estas zonas de alteração estão principalmente confinadas ao contato entre as rochas granito-gnáissicas e as rochas subvulcânicas félsicas e formam corpos lenticulares, alongados na direção W-NW e subverticais. Rochas encaixantes sem alteração ou fracamente alteradas gradam para corpos de alteração pervasiva, em que a alteração é crescente em direção aos corpos de minério. O sistema hidrotermal desenvolvido no depósito é complexo e pode ser caracterizado por estágios de alterações superimpostas que se inicia com alteração a biotita-clorita (± quartzo, magnetita, apatita, alanita, titanita, fluorita, zircão, turmalina e epidoto). Esta alteração ocorre de forma expansiva e está associada a um regime de deformação dúctil. Neste estágio ocorre forte enriquecimento em FeO e MgO, acompanhado de enriquecimento leve em K2O e depleção em Na2O. Localmente ocorre cloritização, formando bandas ricas em clorita, principalmente na porção norte do depósito. Alteração a anfibólio-biotita ocorre de forma localizada e se sobrepõe aos estágios de alteração iniciais. Este tipo de alteração é restrito e ocorre principalmente associado à mineralização. O conteúdo de CaO aumenta neste estágio. Alteração a magnetita-apatita-quartzo (± anfibólio, clorita, e biotita) segue os estágios iniciais e é caracterizada por forte enriquecimento em FeO, P2O5 e F. Este tipo de alteração ocorre em regime deformacional predominantemente rúptil e formas corpos brechados. O ultimo estágio significativo do sistema hidrotermal é o evento mineralizante, o qual forma corpos subverticais, de direção W-NW, que se sobrepõem ou cortam as zonas de alteração. O principal sulfeto é pirita, seguida por milerita, pentlandita, calcopirita, pirrotita, e esfalerita. A mineralização mais abundante ocorre na forma de veios ou disseminada e hospeda os mais baixos teores de Ni. Brechas e sulfetos maciços ocorrem de forma subordinada e hospedam os mais altos teores. Veios tardios de fluorita, carbonatos, quartzo, e clorita (subordinada) ocorrem cortando os corpos mineralizados. Os produtos de alteração hidrotermal do depósito Jaguar são enriquecidos em ETRL, Fe, U, P, Pb, Ni e Co, uma característica comum nos depósitos IOCG de Carajás. Uma feição importante no depósito Jaguar é o enriquecimento anômalo em F que contrasta com os valores mais baixos de Cl. Esta feição difere do que é encontrado normalmente nos depósitos IOCG, os quais são normalmente mais enriquecidos em Cl do que em F. Umas das possibilidades apresentadas neste trabalho para a fonte do Ni são as rochas máfica-ultramáficas, de ampla ocorrência principalmente na porção sul do Domínio Carajás. Os teores de Pt-Pd do depósito Jaguar são baixos, normalmente abaixo do limite de detecção. Se estas rochas máfico-ultramáficas forem pobres em PGE, é razoável dizer que o depósito Jaguar teve origem em um modelo que envolve mobilização de Ni e Cu por fluidos hidrotermais de rochas máfica-ultramáficas em profundidade abaixo do depósito. A falta de associação direta da mineralização do depósito Jaguar com rochas máfica-ultramáficas contrasta com o que é encontrado na maioria dos depósitos de Ni hidrotermal descritos na literatura e com todos os depósitos de Ni de origem magmática. Esta feição representa um aspecto importante para prospecção de Ni. A possibilidade de associar a mineralização hidrotermal de Ni com os depósitos de Cu-Au de Carajás pode aumentar a abrangência prospectiva de depósitos de Ni em escala mundial. A abundância de rochas máfica-ultramáficas na porção sul do Domínio Carajás somados a presença de um sistema hidrotermal eficiente na província pode indicar possibilidades de mobilização de Ni por fluidos hidrotermais e posterior mineralização.
The Jaguar deposit represents an important hydrothermal Ni sulfide discovery in recent years. It is located in the southwestern portion of the Carajás Mineral Province, one of the most important Cu-Au districts in the world. Hydrothermal Ni deposits are rare and have minor economic significance compared to magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE deposits. However, the Jaguar deposit has preliminary resources of 92 Mt @ 0.65% Ni (cut-off 0.4% Ni), with potential for world-class. Many characteristics of the deposit are comparable to those found in IOCG deposits from the Carajás Mineral Province. The Jaguar deposit is hosted by felsic subvolcanic rocks from the Itacaiunas Supergroup in the southern portion and granitic-gneissic rocks from the Plaquê Suite and Xingú Complex in the northern portion. It is located along hydrothermal alteration zones, structurally controlled by W-NW regional-scale faults and brittle-ductile shear zones. Alteration zones are mainly confined to the contact between the granitic-gneissic rocks and felsic subvolcanic rocks, and they form W-NW striking, lens-shaped, steeply dipping bodies. Unaltered to poorly altered host rocks grade to pervasively altered bodies with increasing hydrothermal alteration towards the mineralized zones. A complex hydrothermal system characterized by overlapping stages begins with pervasive biotite-chlorite (± quartz, magnetite, apatite, allanite, titanite, fluorite, zircon, tourmaline and epidote) alteration. This alteration type is the most widespread and occurs under ductile conditions. FeO and MgO enrichment, matched with mild K2O enrichment and decrease in Na2O, occur in this stage. Chloritization can locally form chlorite-rich bands, mostly in the northern part of the deposit. Amphibole-biotite alteration locally overprints early alteration zones. This alteration type is restricted and occurs mainly associated to the mineralized zones. CaO contents increase in this stage. The early alteration stages are followed by magnetite-apatite-quartz (± amphibole, chlorite and biotite) alteration, characterized by strong FeO, P2O5 and F enrichment. This alteration type takes place under a brittle regime and forms brecciated bodies. The mineralizing event is the last stage of the hydrothermal system and forms W-NW striking, steeply dipping bodies, overprinting and crosscutting alteration zones. Pyrite is the main sulfide, followed by millerite, pentlandite and minor chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite and sphalerite. Vein and disseminated mineralization style are more common and host lower Ni grades whereas subordinate breccia and massive mineralization style hosts the highest Ni grades. Post-mineralization alteration is represented by late veins of fluorite, carbonate, quartz and minor chlorite that crosscut the mineralized bodies. The hydrothermal alteration products from the Jaguar deposit are enriched in LREE, Fe, U, P, Pb, Ni and Co, as occurs in most IOCG deposits in Carajás. An important feature in the Jaguar deposit is the unusually high F content, contrasting with the lower Cl contents, differing from IOCG deposits in Carajás that have higher Cl contents when compared to F contents. A possible source of Ni for the Jaguar deposit is the Ni present in mafic-ultramafic rocks, fairly abundant in the southern portion of the Carajás Domain. Pt-Pd contents in the Jaguar deposit are very low, normally below the detection limits. If these mafic-ultramafic rocks are PGE-poor, it seems suitable that Ni mineralization from the Jaguar deposit was originated in a model that involves mobilization of Ni and Cu by hydrothermal fluids from mafic-ultramafic rocks at depth below the deposit. The lack of direct association between the Jaguar deposit and mafic-ultramafic rocks contrasts with most hydrothermal Ni deposits described in literature and with all magmatic Ni deposits. This feature represents an important prospective highlight for Ni exploration. The possible association of hydrothermal Ni sulfide mineralization with Cu-Au deposits in Carajás provides a significant venue for research, which may enlarge the scope of hydrothermal deposits worldwide. The abundance of mafic-ultramafic rocks in the southern portion of the Carajás Domain and the presence of a widespread hydrothermal system can indicate possibilities of Ni leaching by hydrothermal fluids and later mineralization.

Resumo: A tese de doutoramento aqui apresentada tem por objeto de estudo o romance O Ateneu, de Raul Pompéia, publicado em 1888 em folhetim pela Gazeta de Notícias e, meses mais tarde, em volume, pela tipografia do mesmo jornal. Estuda-se o processo narrativo da obra a partir de uma discussão inicial de sua recepção crítica, em que se observam três tendências interpretativas distintas: uma primeira de viés biográfico, bastante comum até a década de 1940; uma segunda, de viés social, iniciada logo após a anterior, e continuada ainda hoje; e uma última, de viés revisionista, mais atual, pautada na análise de aspectos até então considerados acessórios pela crítica. Dentre estes aspectos, está o tratamento cada vez mais aprofundado da narração autodiegética e do memorialismo latente já no subtítulo do romance - "Crônica de saudades". Para tanto, discute-se a seguir a natureza teórica da narrativa de memórias, levantando-se diversos textos de teoria da narrativa como embasamento teórico da exposição. Propõe-se, assim, o uso de uma terminologia que busca categorizar em três grandes grupos as narrativas de memórias, de acordo com sua orientação mais voltada para o passado da ação - "narrativa retrospectiva" -, para o presente da narração - "narrativa presentificativa" - ou para o processo de leitura e recepção das memórias - "narrativa prospectiva". A análise posterior de diversos elementos da narração d'O Ateneu chega à conclusão de que o romance de Pompéia representa um exemplo acabado de "narrativa prospectiva", em que o narrador manipula a infância vivida no internato para fazer-se de vítima do sistema, e, assim, reverter a lógica de opressão a que fora submetido no Ateneu
Abstract: The present thesis has for its main objective the study of O Ateneu, by Raul Pompeia, a novel published as a feuilleton in Gazeta de Notícias in 1888 and printed a few months later in book format at the offices of the same newspaper. Starting with an initial discussion of its critical reception, in which are regarded three different interpretative tendencies - a "biographical" one, commonly found until 1940; a "social" one, started around 1940 and still active nowadays; and a "revisionist" one, the most current tendency, on the analysis of many aspects of the novel regarded so far as of a lesser importance - it is emphasized the evaluation of its autodiegetic narration and of its latent memoirism, already foreseen in the novel's subtitle - "Crônica de saudades". The theoretical nature of memoirist narrative is discussed afterwards with the support of a variety of theoretical texts. Finally, a terminology that arranges three major groups of memoiristic narratives, according to their orientation towards the past of the diegesis - "retrospective narrative" -, the present of the narration - "presentificative narrative" - or the reading process and the reception of the memoirs - "prospective narrative" - is propounded. The analysis of important elements of O Ateneu's narration concludes that Pompeia's novel represents a perfect example of a "prospective narrative", in which the narrator manipulates the remembrance of his childhood to perform the role of a victim, therefore reversing the logic of oppression to which he was subdued in Ateneu

O Enriquecimento Ambiental é uma prática relativamente recente que surgiu no âmbito da conservação, com o objetivo de suscitar comportamentos naturais nos animais sob cuidados humanos, visando o seu bem-estar e preparação para serem devolvidos à natureza, caso estes apresentem fortes possibilidades de adaptação à vida selvagem. Consiste na modificação do ambiente que rodeia o animal, nomeadamente a instalação onde residem, e das suas práticas de maneio, usando as 5 categorias de enriquecimento ambiental: social, cognitivo, sensorial, alimentar e físico. Tem sido aplicada extensivamente nos Jardins Zoológicos pelo mundo, incluindo o Jardim Zoológico de Lisboa, local onde o estágio e estudo foram realizados. O espécime do estudo foi um Jaguar fêmea (Panthera onca) que tinha sido recebida no Jardim Zoológico recentemente, proveniente do Jardim Zoológico de Darthmouth, uma troca realizada conforme as normas e indicações da European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA). O estudo incidiu na avaliação do enriquecimento ambiental aplicado inicialmente na instalação que lhe foi alocada. A recolha de dados para a avaliação foi realizada com recurso a uma máquina fotográfica, caderno para anotações e a um smartphone com a aplicação Animal Behaviour Pro, disponível para a plataforma iOS, que permitiu registos comportamentais mais rápidos e precisos. Estes dados são automaticamente convertidos em tabelas de cálculo no computador, prontos para serem tratados estatisticamente com recurso a testes não-paramétricos. O programa utilizado para analisar os dados foi o RStudio. Com os dados recolhidos, foi possível concluir que o espécime está bem-adaptado à sua instalação e a realizar principalmente comportamentos naturais que seriam observados nos animais em liberdade. O enriquecimento ambiental aplicado era variado, desde a construção de estruturas de madeira, vegetação natural, introdução de especiarias como a canela, pinhas penduradas em ramos para estimular a audição, caixas de cartão e sacas de serapilheira manchadas de sangue e comida escondida na instalação. Estes estão portanto a cumprir os seus objetivos de estimular a realização de comportamentos naturais na Jaguar, contribuindo positivamente para o seu desenvolvimento e bem-estar.
ABSTRACT - Environmental enrichment is a relatively recent practice that came to life under the scope of conservation, with the purpose of enabling animals under human care, to perform their natural behaviors, as they would do in the wild, with the purpose of improving their well-being and to prepare those who are eligible for release, in case they show a strong adaptability to readjust to wildlife. This practice consists in the modification of the environment that surrounds the animal, namely the facility that they live in and husbandry, using the 5 categories of environmental enrichment: social, cognitive, sensory, food and physical enrichment. It has been applied extensively in Zoos throughout the world, including the Lisbon Zoo, where the traineeship and the study took place. The study specimen was a female Jaguar (Panthera onca) that was taken in recently by the Lisbon Zoo from the Darthmouth Zoo, an exchange done in accordance with European Association of Zoos and Aquaria guidelines. The study focused on the evaluation of the environmental enrichment that was initially applied in the facility that was meant for her. The data collection for the evaluation was made using a photographic camera, a notebook and a smartphone with the app Animal Behaviour Pro available for iOS, which enabled faster and more accurate behavioral records. These data were automatically converted in spreadsheets on the computer, ready for statistical treatment, using non-parametric tests. The program used to analyze the data was RStudio. With the collected data, it was possible to conclude that the specimen is well adjusted to its facility and performing mostly natural behaviors that would be observed in animals in the wild. The environmental enrichment applied was varied, from the construction of wooden structures, natural vegetation, the introduction of spices such as cinnamon, pinecones hanging from branches to stimulate hearing, cardboard boxes and sackcloth bags stained with blood and food hidden in the installation. They are therefore fulfilling their objectives of promoting natural activities at Jaguar, contributing positively to their development and well-being.

A zona fronteiriça do Brasil-Uruguai é uma região plurilíngue, que contém, além das línguas nacionais - o português e o espanhol-, os Dialetos Portugueses do Uruguai (DPU). Os DPU, falados pelos fronteiriços uruguaio, são dialetos de base lusitana com influência da língua espanhola, assim denominados por considerar-se essa variedade uma variedade do português padrão. Nesse âmbito, localizam-se as cidades gêmeas de Jaguarão-Río Branco, que se constituem, portanto, de um bilinguismo societal, pois é comum ver seus moradores manejarem as duas línguas nacionais. O manejo desse par de línguas se torna evidente no comércio, mais especificamente em nosso estudo no comércio jaguarense. No lado fronteiriço brasileiro a comunicação se dá com o brasileiro ou uruguaio local. Desse modo, as práticas linguísticas fronteiriças brasileiras incluem o fenômeno do code-switching. O code-switching ou alternância de códigos é um comportamento linguístico característico de indivíduos bilíngues, que são capazes de alternar seus sistemas linguísticos com interlocutores que dividam o mesmo par de línguas. Esta dissertação pretende ajudar a ampliar os estudos fronteiriços do lado brasileiro, descrevendo a prática linguística de 40 comerciantes jaguarenses, que foram entrevistados e tiveram seus estabelecimentos gravados a fim de captar as vendas com os clientes uruguaios. Controlamos nesta pesquisa três variantes: gênero, tempo de serviço e estudo de espanhol em alguma instituição de ensino. Além de descrever a prática linguística do comerciante brasileiro, também buscamos identificar qual a atitude linguística do grupo para com o seu falar, com o intuito de verificar se possuíamos uma comunidade bilíngue com ou sem diglossia.

Current trends in biodiversity conservation are based on maintaining suitable habitat conditions not just within protected areas, but also on adjacent, sustainably managed lands. This is especially challenging for the conservation of large carnivores such as the jaguar that require connected habitats to minimize extinction risks and facilitate movement while minimizing conflicts with humans. This study provides spatially explicit habitat information for jaguar management and the implementation of corridors linking its populations in the Yucatan peninsula, Mexico, an area of international significance for the species. First, both comprehensive and sex-based habitat suitability models based on jaguar occurrence records and a combination of land use and land cover (LULC), distance to infrastructures (human settlements and roads), and climate (mean annual precipitation) were constructed using MaxEnt. Then, this information was used to derive a cost surface for mapping suitable corridors, linking four locations (nodes) where current jaguar observations were concentrated. The performance of all models was excellent, but slightly higher for either the female (AUC = 0.928±0.014), or the male (AUC = 0.942±0.042) models than for the comprehensive one (AUC = 0.889±0.047), despite its larger sample size. While LULC was a better predictor for the female model, all models showed that highly suitable areas were scarce in the region and were mostly associated with tropical evergreen forests. Suitable habitat patches were more fragmented for the male or comprehensive models than for the one for females only. Five potential corridors of varying quality have been identified between the population nodes, the best one being from Calakmul to Sian Ka'an along the eastern Caribbean coast, followed by Sian Ka'an to Ria Lagartos. The corridor connecting northern locations from Ria Lagartos to Ria Celestun had the poorest habitat conditions. The suitable habitat models and corridors support the potential value for conservation of productive lands under sustainable forest management since most potential suitable habitats for jaguars were found outside protected areas. These results can be useful to highlight areas of potential opportunities or conflicts for jaguar conservation in a human-dominated landscape and to target areas for further jaguar surveys.Keywords: biodiversity conservation, landscape ecology, habitat modeling, corridor, connectivity, jaguar, Mexico.
Les courants actuels en biologie de la conservation privilégient le maintien d'habitats essentiels autant dans les aires protégées que sur les terres adjacentes montrant une gestion durable des habitats. Ceci peut être particulièrement critique lorsque des terres doivent être aménagées afin de permettre la conservation de populations de grands carnivores tel que le jaguar, qui requiert une bonne connectivité d'habitats, permettant une minimisation des risques de conflit avec l'humain et favorisant le déplacement des populations de jaguars. Cette étude vise à produire des informations spatiales pour la gestion de populations de jaguars ainsi que l'implémentation de corridors reliant ces populations dans la péninsule du Yucatan, au Mexique, une aire d'importance internationale pour l'espèce. À l'aide de MaxEnt, on a d'abord créé un modèle général d'habitats potentiels ainsi qu'un modèle basé sur le genre (male ou femelle), en utilisant les donnés d'occurrences du jaguar et une combinaison de variables de couverture et utilisation du sol, de distance à des infrastructures (i.e., habitations et routes) et de climat (précipitation moyenne annuelle). Cette information a ensuite été utilisée afin de développer une analyse de coût de déplacement dans des corridors reliant quatre lieus (nœuds) où les observations actuelles de jaguar sont concentrées. Bien que tous les modèles aient une excellente performance, les modèles basés sur le genre (femelle AUC = 0.928±0.014, male AUC = 0.942±0.042) avaient une performance supérieure au modèle général (AUC = 0.889±0.047), et ce, malgré la plus petite taille de l'échantillon. La variable couverture et utilisation du sol était un meilleur facteur dans le modèle des femelles, mais tous les modèles ont prédit que peu d'habitats avaient un fort potentiel dans la région et que les quelques habitats potentiels étaient associés à des forêts tropicales sempervirentes. Les habitats potentiels (i.e., avec un bon potentiel ou un très bon potentiel) étaient moins nombreux, mais plus fragmentés et de plus petite taille dans le modèle des males ou le modèle général que dans le modèle de femelles. Cinq corridors potentiels de qualité variable ont été identifiés entre les nœuds de populations, le meilleur étant celui qui relie Calakmul à Sian Ka'an sur la côte Caribéenne est, suivi par celui reliant Sian Ka'an à Ria Lagartos. Le corridor reliant le site du nord de Ria Lagartos à Ria Celestun présentait le plus faible potentiel. Les modèles d'habitats potentiels et de corridors démontrent l'importance de conserver les terres productives par une gestion durable des forêts puisqu'elles regroupent des habitats favorables au jaguar, et ce, à l'extérieur d'aires protégées. Ces résultats permettent l'identification d'aires présentant un bon potentiel pour la conservation du jaguar dans un paysage dominé par l'humain ou de sélectionner des aires pour échantillonner des populations de jaguars. Mots clés: Biologie de la conservation, écologie du paysage, modélisation d'habitat, corridor, connectivité, jaguar, Mexique.

El aumento de la población humana y la demanda cada vez mayor de recursos ha dado como resultado áreas muy pequeñas donde se trata de conservar la diversidad biológica. Dando como resultado el conflicto humano-carnívoro el cual surge cuando el depredador ataca al ganado doméstico provocando pérdidas económicas al productor y éste último como represalia persigue al carnívoro hasta que logra eliminarlo afectando su estado de conservación. Considerando que en el país no existe un diagnóstico de la ganadería como actividad productiva y que las prácticas de manejo ganadero están directamente relacionadas con el riesgo de depredación, es necesario generar análisis integrales y a diferentes escalas, por lo que el objetivo del estudio fue identificar los aspectos del manejo del ganado que pueden ser modificados o mejorados para aumentar la producción y disminuir el impacto de la depredación. Los sitios con y sin registros de depredación se compararon en un análisis nacional (a nivel municipal) y local (a nivel de ranchos). Los sitios donde hay casos de depredación tienen una mayor proporción de hectáreas forestales y más corrales, sin embargo, los corrales no tienen el diseño adecuado o materiales para proteger el ganado. Se propone un "rancho modelo", considerando los datos promedio de la RNSN así como los programas gubernamentales que podrían subsidiarlo, de manera que la inversión en su construcción representaría un beneficio económico neto 2,4 veces mayor que su costo. Se presenta además, información sobre los aspectos y problemas que deben abordar los programas de subsidios gubernamentales para la actividad ganadera para aumentar la rentabilidad del sector, pero también contribuir al desarrollo social y la conservación de la vida silvestre.

The purpose of this research was to develop, implement, and evaluate a citizen science program to survey and monitor for jaguars (Panthera onca) and ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) within key mountain ranges in southwest Arizona. I had three main objectives: 1.) develop and implement a citizen science program to train participants with little or no knowledge of wildlife conservation, 2.) identify program effectiveness in comparison with experts in terms of the quality of data gathered and the financial and administrative costs/benefits, 3.) understand what creates an effective citizen science program and how it can be replicated in the future. This research examined the efficacy of using citizen science as a tool to connect the public and scientific community through education and a research-based project. A network of citizen scientists were provided extensive education and training by field experts to participate in jaguar and ocelot monitoring in southern Arizona. The scale and scope of this project is unprecedented in the citizen science literature; participants drove and hiked off-trail monitoring wildlife cameras monthly for a minimum of one year in extremely rugged backcountry conditions in the mountains near the U.S./Mexico border. Citizen science participants were challenged by terrain, weather, and border issues during their time on this project. Despite these challenges, our group of nine citizen scientists successfully downloaded and sorted 28,637 photos from 22 cameras at 14 monitoring sites over 12 months. They logged a total of 327 hours of fieldwork including driving, hiking, and performing camera maintenance. After finishing a site visit, citizen scientists also sorted photos identifying wildlife, logging approximately 109 hours of data organization. In addition, 100% of our citizen scientists adhered to our protocols that we tested and implemented in the field over a one-year period. Citizen scientists continue to monitor remote wildlife cameras in the rugged mountainous regions of this southern Arizona study area. Citizen science is often criticized because of skepticism from the scientific community regarding data integrity, quality control, and potentially biased data. This research aimed to exam the data integrity of citizen scientists by comparing it to the data analyzed by experts. When comparing the ability of citizen scientists and field team experts in sorting and correctly identifying wildlife, I found strong positive correlations between the levels of data quality. These high positive correlations indicate that, with training, citizen scientists are capable of accurately identifying wildlife from camera data nearly as well as the field team experts, and can be an excellent surrogate for experts. Connecting volunteers to the natural landscape through hands-on science research has the potential to create many positive experiences. Citizen science can increase participant’s knowledge of science, build trust and foster understanding, and can create a more informed public. Despite these benefits, data integrity is the most important aspect of research and data collected by non-scientists remains heavily scrutinized. Collaboration amongst professionals, educators, program designers, and data managers is necessary to ensure that project goals are achieved while maintaining scientific integrity. Continuing to examine citizen science programs is important to advance the field of citizen science and foster meaningful relationships between the public and scientists. This study provided a unique opportunity to use non-scientists to augment data collection and assessment in the scientific workplace to advance jaguar and ocelot conservation. We strongly believe that citizen scientists remain an underutilized resource for helping scientists collect and analyze data in a climate of reduced funding and increasing need for long-term monitoring.

Este trabalho versa sobre o universo da arte tangenciado pela moda, sua efemeridade, pertencimentos e seus agenciamentos. Nesse contexto, busca-se exemplificar o quanto a moda e a arte estão intrinsecamente ligadas. O ponto de partida é a moda como experiência e expressão coletiva e/ou individual, principalmente em trajes e formas vestimentares, pois são esses que mais forte influência exercem sobre o homem, seu corpo, seu espaço e memória. Localiza-se esse processo de aproximação entre arte e moda no século XX, quando vanguardas romperam com o academicismo clássico, agregando à arte sinestesias de sistemas relacionais. Rejeitam-se intermitências escultóricas e pictóricas para dar lugar a linguagens que interagem com o espectador. Os dados do presente trabalho traçam o panorama da aproximação entre arte e moda, a partir de duas vertentes: a primeira demonstra como a arte busca, no traje, suas sinergias, influenciando-se e apropriando-se da sinestesia proporcionada pela roupa; a segunda, como a moda apropriou-se de elementos da arte, em busca de um reposicionamento como expressão e não somente consumo
This work discusses the art universe touched by fashion, its ephemerality, belongings and its relations. In this context, the purpose is to exemplify how fashion and art are inextricably linked. The starting point is fashion as an experience and as an expression, which can be collective and/or individual. Fashion is mainly comprised by clothes and raiment, because these are the forms that have more influence on the human, his body, his space and his memory, on this way the process of art and fashion approximation occurred in the Twentieth Century, when the vanguards broke down to the classic academicism bringing to art a intersection of feelings and relational systems. The sculptural and pictorial intermittent manifestations gave place to languages that interactes with the spectator. The data presented in this work show how art and fashion approached themselves, focusing on two slopes: the first one is how art seek on clothes its synergies, influencing itself and assuming the effects of the intersection of feelings created by clothes, and the second one is how fashion arrogated arts elements in order to be viewed as a way of expression and not only as an ordinary expenditure

Over the years, the traditional face of marketing has changed. Companies need to adopt ongoing marketing strategies to stay ahead of their competitors; the design and content of their strategies continue to evolve.

In this thesis a case study has been conducted on one company within the automotive industry in Sweden. The case study was performed on Jaguar Cars in Sweden and an assessment of their use of Online Marketing Communication (OMC) as a marketing tool was made.

The case study indicated that Jaguar Cars in Sweden only invest moderately in Online Marketing Communication activities. The thesis indicates that it is important for Jaguar to invest more economic resources into OMC and to be well educated on the subject. The focus for Jaguar should be on creating the perfect synergy between online vs. offline marketing by deploying a more involved Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC) approach in order to utilize the internet most effectively. Moreover, the marketing communication decisions should focus on the marketing communications channels that offer the highest benefit for all the stakeholders. Further suggestions for Jaguar were to increase the paid search engine optimization, create a forum, develop an RSS function and also have portal representation.

Key words: Online marketing communications, Integrated marketing communications, internet marketing, automotive industry, OMC channels.

A relação da arte com a psicanálise é próxima desde os primórdios da última. A sociedade em que viveu o criador da psicanálise, Sigmund Freud, atribuía um forte valor à produção artística, assim como ele próprio. As produções artísticas foram entendidas como manifestações do Inconsciente, assim como os atos falhos e os sonhos. Portanto, a arte teve diversos usos entre os psicanalistas: como ilustração; como possibilidade de validação de descobertas clínicas; como elemento para a realização de psicobiografias; como forma de favorecer a associação livre, entre outros. A retomada desse percurso freudiano, de forma breve por diversos artigos relacionados à arte, e especificamente, nos artigos “Delírios e Sonhos na Gradiva de Jensen” e “Leonardo da Vinci e uma lembrança da sua infância” permite demonstrar esses usos e refletir sobre os mecanismos psíquicos da criação artística, pensados metapsicologicamente. O estudo do romance “López e eu”, de Carlos Cañeque, permite discutir sobre como podem ser pensadas a arte, a criatividade e o processo de criação artística, para refletir sobre a questão: é possível lançar mão do recurso artístico visando um tratamento psicanalítico? Entendemos que sim, respeitando o caráter de especificidade de cada sujeito no que diz respeito a se é possível ou não se beneficiar do uso da arte como técnica para um tratamento psicanalítico. _________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
The relationship of art with psychoanalysis has been close since the first years of the latter. The society where the creator of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, lived attributed great value to artistic production, and so did he. Artistic productions were understood as manifestations of the Unconscious as well as faulty actions and dreams. Thus, art had several uses among psychoanalysts: as illustration; as an element for the realization of psycho biographies; as a form of benefiting the free association, among others. The retaking of this Freudian course, in a brief form, by several articles related to art, and specifically, in the articles “Delírios e sonhos na Gradiva de Jensen” and “Leonardo da Vinci e uma lembrança de sua infância” permits to demonstrate these uses and think about the psychic mechanisms of the artistic creation, considered metapsychologically. The study of the novel “López e eu”, by Carlos Cañeque, permits to discuss how art, creativity and the process of artistic creation can be thought in order to consider the question: is it possible to make use of the artistic resource aiming a psychoanalytic treatment? We think so since the character of each subject is respected in what concerns if it is possible or not to benefit from the use of art as a technique for a psychoanalytic treatment.

The mesopredator release hypothesis suggests that small carnivore populations are negatively affected by competition with larger carnivore species; this could hinder the conservation of mesopredators in areas where large top-carnivores are prioritized. I investigated the ecology of ocelots in Belize and examined the role of mesopredator release in the neotropical carnivore guild to determine if ocelots are limited by competition with jaguars and pumas. I conducted remote camera surveys and sampled habitat within four protected areas: three broadleaf sites and one pine forest site. I measured ocelot activity and habitat-use with respect to the activity of jaguars and pumas at one broadleaf site and one pine forest site; additionally, I calculated estimates of ocelot and jaguar densities within those two sites. Ocelot presence was positively related to jaguar activity in the pine forest and to both jaguar and puma activity in the broadleaf forest. There were few relationships with habitat characteristics; however, in the broadleaf site, ocelot activity was positively related to road width and large avian prey activity. Both jaguar and ocelot densities were low in the pine forest and higher in the broadleaf site. Preliminary findings from the remaining two sites suggest that future results may be similar to those from the first two sites analyzed. I conclude that ocelot populations are not negatively affected by jaguars and that a negative effect of pumas is unlikely. Results imply that mesopredator release does not limit ocelot populations in these areas.

What makes identity readable? To answer this question, I examine the constructions of queer, non-German women in three contemporary transnational German films, Aimée und Jaguar, Fremde Haut and Auf der anderen Seite. To become readable, and thus to survive within the socio-political realm of German culture, these protagonists must construct and perform interconnected dimensions of identity— sex, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, language, clothing, and name—that can be located along a hegemonic-defined continuum. But when the characters cannot be read within this framework, they trouble dominant readings and understandings of their positions in this system and disrupt normative conceptions of identity. These threats to the system, however, do not lead to a renegotiation of the protagonists’ identities. Rather, hegemonic German society reacts to the unreadability of these queer figures by violently rejecting them through deportation and/or death.

As agriculture continues to expand across the tropics there is an urgent need to assess its effects on biodiversity and understand how to reconcile agricultural expansion with conservation and overall sustainable development. Protected areas are not large enough to sustain viable mammal populations, thus it is important to understand how to integrate agricultural regions into conservation strategies. The aims of this thesis were (1) to improve our understanding of jaguars and other medium-large terrestrial mammals across increasing agricultural landscapes; (2) assess the impact of human land uses such as oil palm cultivation on these species; and (3) inform strategies to reconcile biodiversity conservation with other sustainability aspects and regional development in rural areas in Colombia. The methods included field surveys using camera trapping, ecological analysis (e.g. capture-recapture and occupancy models), and scenario and network analysis combined with sustainability assessment. The findings conclude that there is an effect of agriculture on jaguar populations as densities were lower than in comparable natural areas, however there were resident individuals and breeding, highlighting that modified areas can be important for jaguar long-term survival and connectivity. Wetlands were the only variable explaining jaguar occurrence, while forests impacted puma's occupancy positively and were a predictor of mammal species richness. Conversely, both oil palm and pasture affected several mammal species negatively, and the remaining ones only displayed limited affinity to these land covers, showing that the expansion of oil palm plantations and pastures constitutes a threat for felids and mammals in general. These results suggest that maintaining natural areas such as forests and wetlands across agricultural regions is key to mammal survival, pointing at a land sparing strategy. Further oil palm expansion, when inevitable, should occur on pastures since they displayed limited to no conservation value for jaguars and other mammals. Overall, agriculture impacts mammal communities by decreasing their diversity and evenness, while increasing dominance, comparatively to pristine regions. The effect on species richness was not entirely evident, demonstrating that agricultural regions are not necessarily biological deserts. Data also show that jaguars did not affect the occupancy of other felid species and were a positive predictor of mammal species richness, hence conservation strategies focused on this declining keystone species can benefit the wider mammal community, even in modified regions. This thesis also highlights that rural areas can provide for both people and wildlife if the right conditions are in place. Under the current situation the main agricultural sectors (i.e. cattle ranching and oil palm cultivation) affect wildlife and other aspects of sustainability negatively. Both adopting a stronger regulatory framework with land use planning and applying incentive schemes are improvements, as they would enable to maintain natural habitats that are crucial for jaguar and other species, while improving overall sustainability. Relevant recommendations to reconcile biodiversity conservation with overall sustainable development include the design and adoption of strategic land use planning, making agricultural subsidies conditional to social and environmental standards, consolidating local institutions, designing incentives to foster the implementation of good agricultural practices, favouring small farmers, and creating a demand for certified agricultural commodities. Finally, this research proves that achieving conservation across agricultural regions is inherently complex. Interdisciplinary approaches are needed to study such landscapes and provide solutions that are effective and locally-relevant.

En el presente trabajo, me propongo analizar la novela de Isabel Allende, La ciudad de las bestias, como una novela de formación dirigida a un público juvenil, que utiliza códigos de lo real maravilloso deterritorializados e imágenes arquetípicas para retratar el crecimiento del protagonista hasta alcanzar la madurez y obtener un conocimiento apropiado sobre sí mismo y sobre el mundo que lo rodea. Al ser una novela de formación, uno de sus objetivos es promover el desarrollo del lector: instruir y formar a la audiencia que será absorbida por la magia y la fantasía de la historia. Si bien la novela de Allende no es política, promueve una conciencia ética y una educación ecológica mediante la conformación de un sujeto ideal que es tolerante, respetuoso de las demás culturas y de la naturaleza, y que tiene la voluntad de protegerlas de las intenciones mercantilistas y explotadoras de compañías mineras y otros grupos económicos.

O trabalho procura refletir sobre as condições de validação do discurso da Arte destinada aos espaços públicos. O chamado espaço público de convívio encarna a contradição dos interesses entre sujetividade, capital e estado, tornando esse ambiente ideologicamente tenso e descontínuo. Discutir sobre a validez social de uma obra de arte instalada em lugar público, além de investigar os procedimentos conceituais e poéticos dos artistas, representa a reflexão sobre a tensão do conceito de público, da sua materialização geográfica, política e histórica e sobre a formação de uma opinião pública que confere - ou não - essa validez.

Com o advento do computador, da internet e da web, ou seja, das mídias digitais, novos paradigmas temporais surgiram e uma nova relação espaço-tempo se impôs. Nessa dissertação analisamos as potencialidades temporais suscitadas pelas novas mídias e o seu desenvolvimento especificamente na arte criada com a rede mundial de computadores. Buscamos na história da arte referências da representação do tempo, abordando desde a impossibilidade da pintura de mostrar a passagem do tempo até as pesquisas de obras cinéticas que fizeram uso de mecanismos para assumir seu movimento transformativo em tempo real. As tecnologias e a interdisciplinaridade tiveram profunda influência nesse processo com a fotografia, o cinema, o vídeo, o computador, dentre outros, e as parcerias principalmente entre artistas e engenheiros. O mapeamento das diversas classificações de tempo que alguns pesquisadores pontuaram para determinadas mídias deram o subsídio necessário para introduzir a questão do tempo na arte digital. Estabelecemos nesse estudo um recorte do tema das artes digitais direcionando a pesquisa para os trabalhos realizados na web e com a internet. A partir de análises de trabalhos selecionados, entrevistas com os autores dessas obras e, ainda, com a apresentação de uma experiência prática da própria pesquisadora, surgiram reflexões a respeito do tempo real, tempo de conexão e visualização, as noções de efêmero e permanência, a desterritorialização, experiência do tempo e simultaneidade. Com essas informações pudemos fazer associações dos conceitos e das práticas que envolvem essas produções, procurando criar um discurso mais específico para a temporalidade aqui pesquisada.

A presente tese visa a afirmar o potencial da arte enquanto uma via de pesquisa acadêmica capaz de propiciar modos alargados de pensamento e ação, concebendo a criação e a experiência como elementos centrais do processo investigativo. Na perspectiva que elege, a tese entende a pesquisa com a arte não tanto como uma elaboração epistemológica, mas como um dispositivo de ações ontológicas: a composição de uma estética da existência, de um devir-pesquisa, de um devir-arte. No momento contemporâneo, em que a humanidade se confronta com a possibilidade de estar causando sua própria extinção, a tese apresenta a força do ato poético de perscrutar caminhos outros, desestabilizando o lugar comum do pensamento, propiciando um acreditar na possibilidade do mundo (Deleuze). A Tese sublinha a importância da arte na formação de pesquisadores e na efetivação de uma educação enquanto educere, permitindo uma humanidade por-vir. A pesquisa, de caráter ensaístico, é organizada como uma tese-parangolé (Oiticica), propondo operações discursivas bricoladoras e lúdicas, visando a produzir deslocamentos e intensificações da potência de vida, articulando, na educação, tanto saberes quanto não saberes. A tese revisita a obra de alguns autores da metodologia conhecida como Pesquisa Baseada em Arte, enfatizando a contribuição dos desafios colocados por Jan Jagodzinski e Jason Wallin. A tese propõe ainda navegações teórico-poéticas por diferentes águas: pelos gestos transgressores nietzscheanos, que situam a arte no centro da vida; pelos processos foucaultianos de subjetivação, que desdobram liberdades e práticas de si; pelo olhar noturno de Blanchot, que vislumbra a experiência-do-fora; pela in-fância ética agambeniana que favorece experiências; pelo pensamento desviante de Deleuze, que se espalha em multiplicidades produzindo inícios. E propõe, especialmente, encontros com você, leitor. E com quem mais chegar.
Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to affirm the potential of art as a means for academic research that is capable of propitiating broad modes of thinking and action, conceiving creation and experience as central elements of the investigative process. The thesis understands research with art not so much as an epistemological elaboration, but as a dispositif for ontological actions: the composition of an aesthetic of existence, of a become-research, of a become-art. At the contemporary moment, when humanity faces the possibility that it is causing its own extinction, the thesis affirms the strength of the poetic act for scrutinizing other paths, destabilizing the commonplace of thought, propitiating a believe in the possibility of the world (Deleuze). The thesis highlights the importance of art in the education of researchers and in the realization of an education as educere, which makes possible a humanity to come. This essay-like research is organized as a parangolé thesis (Oiticica), proposing ludic discursive operations and bricolages, aiming to produce displacements and an intensification of the potential for life, articulating, in education, forms of knowledge and non-knowledge. The thesis revisits the work of some authors of the methodology known as Arts- Based Research, emphasizing the contribution of the challenges raised by Jan Jagodzinski and Jason Wallin. The thesis also proposes theoretical-poetic navigations through different waters: through the transgressive Nietzchean gestures, which locate art at the center of life; by the Foucaultian processes of subjectivation, which unfurl liberties and practices of self; through the nocturnal look of Blanchot, which envisions the outside-experience; through the Agambenian ethical childhood that is propitious to experiences; and through the deviant thinking of Deleuze, which spreads out in multiplicities to produce beginnings. It especially proposes encounters with you, the reader. And with those to come.

A pesquisa tem como objetivo investigar um movimento de arte de âmbito internacional, denominado Arte Postal e sua relação com a comunicação baseada no conceito de rede, além de seu desdobramento na internet. Considerando relevante a participação do espectador na produção artística, a pesquisa contempla o contexto histórico e tecnológico na produção de artistas em momentos diferentes da história, principalmente no que concerne a produção de Arte Postal. Tendo como característica inicial a comunicação indiscriminada entre artistas do mundo inteiro, utilizando, para isso, o sistema de correios, os próprios artistas postais logo passaram a incorporar pessoas anônimas em suas listas o que alimentava e estimulava, cada vez mais, o crescimento de uma rede. A interação com as novas tecnologias, inclusive com espaços midiáticos, fortalecem o viés comunicacional do movimento de Arte Postal, e para tanto trabalhamos com autores que refletem e investigam esse espaço intermediário entre arte e tecnologia, além de autores da comunicação. Dessa forma, a pesquisa se constrói num fluxo contínuo de investigação entre as áreas da comunicação e da arte/tecnologia que compreendemos ser a forma possível de discussão do tema proposto. Para tanto, analisamos alguns trabalhos de artistas postais que tomamos como exemplo dentro do vasto universo da Arte Postal, que nos serviram como instrumentos de mapeamento dos estímulos e trajetórias desse circuito

 

SAMMANFATTNING

Vårt projektarbete har omfattat en totalrenovering av en 6-cylindrig Jaguar motor från 1968. Denna

del har varit det sekundära syftet i vårt projekt. Den primära uppgiften har varit att skriva en

illustrerad manual.

För att finna orsaken till våra problem började vi med att genomföra en rad tester på motorn. Våra

deduktiva och induktiva antaganden om vad som var fel i motorn grundade sig på dessa tester.

Våra logiska slutsatser har dragits ur teoretiska resonemang och rent praktiska undersökningar

av motorns inre delar och funktion. Det metodiska arbetet har begränsats till att på ett så logiskt

och konsekvent sätt som möjligt lösa denna uppgift. Genom att tillämpa denna så uråldriga och

rationellt vetenskapliga felsökningsmetod har vi lyckats totalrenovera en 40 år gammal förbränningsmotor.

Härmed har vi bevisat vad alla erfarna tekniker vet, nämligen att kombinationen av

ett metodiskt tillvägagångssätt och sunt förnuft gör det omöjliga möjligt.

De dragna slutsatserna finns kronologiskt beskrivna i vår manual som kommer att vara en stor

tillgång för de personer som inte besitter en hög grad av maskintekniskt kunnande, samt tidigare

erfarenhet av sagda motor. Vår målsättning har varit att på ett så lättförståligt sätt som möjligt

beskriva processen. Hur man på ett metodiskt sätt genomför detta tvingade oss till att reflektera

över, hur en oinvigd person skulle uppfatta informationen. Samt hur vi genom illustrationer och

formuleringar kom fram till den bästa lösningen. Tillika har vi försökt visa metod och ordningsfölje

vid felsökning och åtgärd. Kontentan av utfört arbete är att de som följer i våra tekniska fotspår

måste besitta viss förkunskap. De rekommenderas av författarna att dokumentera sin egen

demontering med bilder. För att på så sätt underlätta monteringen avsevärt då alla bilder inte kan

medtagas i en manual eller memoreras i tankar. Främst dock tillgång till en hyfsad verktygsarsenal

samt dyr mätutrustning för att ha möjlighet att utföra korrekta mätningar. Tid skall avsättas

till inväntande av reservdelar samt åtgärder som oftast kräver extern hjälp.

Slutligen är det viktigt att känna sina egna tekniska och metodiska begränsningar, och inse att

saker och ting kommer att kärva och därmed ta mer tid än planerat!

 

Conflict with livestock farmers is the most serious threat to the survival of the jaguar (Panthera onca) across its range of 19 countries of the Americas. In this thesis I examine the needs for mitigating human-jaguar conflict at a range-wide scale by: a) reviewing the state of knowledge on the topic, b) modelling the risk of conflict across the range, c) analysing a series of empirical field case studies, and d) proposing appropriate approaches for different levels of conflict. Findings from 43 published studies and 117 expert-described cases show that human-jaguar conflict occurs on large cattle ranches, mixed farms and smallholdings alike. Depletion of prey and poor livestock husbandry are reported as the key reasons for depredation, regardless of ecological, cultural or socio-economic context. Attitudes and tolerance towards jaguars are not necessarily linked to losses, so recent research has focussed on understanding the behaviours of farmers. With 65% of the remaining jaguar range outside of protected areas, effective strategies for coexistence with farmers are essential. By combining geospatial datasets with expert-based information, spatial patterns of human-jaguar conflicts were presented in a predictive model of conflict hotspots. Around 85% of the total jaguar range, 72% of the total Jaguar Conservation Units area and 90% of the Jaguar Corridor area overlap with livestock, and 15% of the jaguar range has risk of conflict. Regions in which jaguars are repeatedly persecuted may become ecological traps and decimate populations. An aggregate study of 17 case studies across seven countries exposed a very large variety of geographic, agronomic and socio-economic contexts. Both within and across case studies there are considerable differences in farmers’ experiences with livestock losses, concerns about depredation, levels of tolerance and attitudes, as well as social norms towards jaguars in each community. No situational factors could be used to predict how farmers perceive jaguars and deal with depredation. The only pattern consistent across case studies was that attitudes towards jaguars are most likely predicted by a factor of perceived loses combined with the social norms of the community. In most scenarios, correctly balanced strategies of improving husbandry combined with behaviour-influencing methods may be the best way forward. To this end, a conceptual model is proposed, which distinguishes three levels of conflict and explains the importance of addressing any underlying history of grievances or incompatibility of values as part of any human-wildlife conflict mitigation strategy.

RESUMO De saída, uma pergunta: como, eventualmente, a arte brasifeira de vanguarda reagiu - em termos estéticos e ideológicos - frente às contradições culturais dos ditos "anos de chumbo" do regime militar? Partindo dessa questão inicial, esta tese procurou desenvolver todo o tempo a idéia de que não é ausente de sentidos históricos a notável coincidência cronológica que existe entre os primeiros anos de vigência do Ato Institucional n° 05 (c. 1969-1973) e o surgimento de uma produção artística conceituai ou conceitualista, ela mesma voltada a problematizar a relação entre arte e realidade - aí incluídas, claro, tanto a "realidade" fenoménica quanto a social. Assim, buscando caracterizar as principais intenções estéticoideológicas do conceitualismo no Brasil e visando a interpretação conjunta daquilo a que o crítico Frederico Morais batizou, já na época, de "contra-arte" ou "arte de guerrilha", esta pesquisa optou pela análise de algumas obras-chave dos artistas Antonio Manuel, Cildo Meireles e Artur Barrio. palavras-chave: arte brasileira, arte conceituai, conceitualismo, arte e política, arte de guerrilha, Antonio Manuel, Artur Barrio, Cildo Meireles, Frederico Morais

aceleração tecnológica tende a reduzir cada vez mais o espaço e o tempo dos processos que herdámos da história.” Emerge, deste modo, uma nova plasticidade da experiência, como se todas as diferenças se tornassem numa diferença de grau, num continuum criado pela codificação digital”9. Inserir um travelling panorâmico nesta hipotética narrativa, significa questionar convivências, padrões sociais, assim como toda a tecnologia inerente que “tende a tornar-se num imenso automatismo de repetição, cujo perigo está em dispensar o próprio humano, que pôs em movimento esta estrutura”10. Este estudo procura identificar alguns destes perigos, assim como o contexto artístico emergente. Importa também considerar um dos artistas nativo da produção nacional, como se de um plano de pormenor se tratasse, não descorando elementos do contexto internacional como num plano geral. A debutar, a importância das aplicações digitais específicas sob as quais o phatos artístico contemporâneo se faz depender.
