STRANGE SHADOW IN VAIN MOVEMENTS: IMAGES OF POETIC WRITING IN CAMILO PESSANHA - IZABELA LEAL
The objective of this work is to relate the poetry of Camilo Pessanha to a questioning about the art of poetry itself, analyzing the relationship between the feeling of time and the activity of poetic creation which may be perceived in his work, a relationship which can be established through the title of his only book of poems: Clepsydra. The clepsydra, an object connected to the counting of time attributed to the orators in ancient Greece, points, therefore, to a fusion between time and discourse, allowing us to engage in a reflection on the act of writing.

DIEU ET L'ÊTRE HUMAIN: RIVALITÉ OU SOLIDARITÉ? - CARLOS HENRIQUE MENDITTI
Dans O Evangelho Segundo Jesus Cristo, José Saramago, écrivain potuguais, donne lidée dune rivalité entre Dieu et lêtre humain. Jésus y est présenté comme humain jusque dans la propension au péché. En tant que personne, il en vient à perdre les caractéristiques de son humanité dans la mesure ou il se voit privé de son livre arbitre et où sa vie perd toute valeur aux yeux de Dieu. L homme Jésus est obligatoirement conduit par Dieu à mourir sur la croix. Comme fils de Dieu, Jésus est obligé d assumer une mission contre sa volonté: faire reconnaître sa filiation divine...

REVISITING DEPRESSION - ELIANE MENDLOWICZ
The objective of this thesis is to provide a systematic study of the depressive neuroses by reviewing and evaluating the main theoretical psychoanalytic contributions on this subject. Narcissism is a crucial concept, and is considered here as a permanent structure. In this perspective it is the increasedtension between the ego ideal and the ego that provokes a narcissistic break, and as a consequence of this, the death impulse invades the ego, which succumbs todepression. The concept of denial (Verleugnung) is considered as an essential operator for depression, for one psychic current accepts the loss but the other,unconscious, disavowels it.Facing the...

IM-POTENT GOD SUFFERING AND EVIL IN CONFRONTATION WITH THE CROSS - PAULO ROBERTO GOMES
Suffering and evil always raise a series of recurring questions. In dealing with man and woman, in the context of modern mentality, there arises an inquiry: how can we harmonize the affirmation of an All-Mighty God with the reality of suffering and evil, safeguarding the autonomy of the human being and the world? In dialogue with three contemporary theologians, Andrés Torres Queiruga, JürgenMoltmann and Jon Sobrino, we try to deal with this questioning, emphasizing their contributions, detecting lacunas, and discerning the critiques in order to complement, enrich and deepen their considerations. Our study departs from a pastoral question, analyzed in...

EDUCATION AND TOURISM IN THE STATE OF RIO DE JANEIRO: A WIDE-SCREEN VIEW OF THE HIGHER EDUCATION - VALERIA MARIA DE SOUZA LIMA
Tourism, as a phenomenon, has featured quite promising figures throughout the world and seems to be able to contribute to the social, cultural, and sustainable development of tourist-oriented places. However, it involves complex inter and co-relations with other fields, which provokes great tensions. One of these nodes of tension is caused by the proximity with other productive sectors of the educational field between the 70's and the 90's, as the latter demanded highly qualified, graduated professionals, which, as far as tourism is concerned, causedthe creation and the progressive development, in Brazil, of degree courses in such specialty. This work is...

MODELS AND ALGORITHMS FOR THE GENERALIZED ASSIGNMENT PROBLEM (PAG) AND APPLICATIONS - ALEXANDRE ALTOE PIGATTI
This dissertation tackles the Generalized Assignment Problem (PAG), models and algorithms are studied and proposed. This work was motivated by a real world application: the Truck Loading Problem (PCC). Research was done on approximated (metaheuristics) and exact algorithm for solving the PAG. The approximated algorithms proposed were based on a recent idea from Fischetti and Lodi (2003). It uses integer programming to explore wider neighborhoods.The results were compared to the best known, while demanding much less implementation effort and using less cpu time. The exact algorithm proposed is a branch-and-cut-and-price developed from the branch-and-price algorithm ofSavelsbergh (1997). We used stabilized...

REPRESENTATIONS OF TRIANGLE GROUPS IN COMPLEX HYPERBOLIC - LUIS FERNANDO CROCCO AFONSO
The main aim of this work is to study type-preserving representations p: gamma PU(2, 1) of triangle groups _ in the group of holomorphic isometries of the twodimensionalcomplex hyperbolic space H2C. The triangle group gamma(p, q, r) is the group generated by reflections in the sides of a geodesic triangle having angles pi/p, pi/q and pi/r. We focus our attention on the groups gamma(4,4, infinit) and gamma (4,infinit, infinit).Among other results, we prove that for each case:1. There is a continuous path of representations pt which contains all type-preserving representations of gamma in PU(2,1) up to conjugation by isometries. This...

THE INFLUENCE OF SCIENTIFIC-NATURAL PARADIGM IN MODERN SOCIO-POLITICAL THOUGHT. - FLAVIO ELIAS RICHE
The research in subject aims to operate an epistemological analysis of Modernity. Making use of Thomas Samuel Kuhns terminology, it tries to demonstrate how the knowledge resulted from natural sciences acquires, in the modern period, hegemonic and paradigmatic character, determining then even the development of political and social thought. It is established, thus, a relationship of methodological dependence, insomuch that the current crisis of modern scientific-natural paradigm turns non-postponable the revision of the own epistemic statute of social sciences. The challenge, however, consists in overcoming deficiencies of the obsolete paradigm without abandoning fundamental acquisitions provided by it, having, for this...

LOW FLOW LIMIT IN SLOT COATING PROCESS OF POLYMERIC SOLUTIONS - OLDRICH JOEL ROMERO GUZMAN
Slot coating is a common method in the manufacture of a wide variety of products. The thickness of the coated liquid layer is set by the flow rate fed to the coating die and the speed of the substrate, and is independent of other process variables. An important operating limit of slot coating is the minimum thickness that can be coated at a given substrate speed,generally referred to as the low- flow limit. For Newtonian liquids, the mechanism that defines this limit balances the viscous, capillary and inertial forces in the flow. Although most of the liquids coated industrially are...
