    Freedom as the elixir of life in Kate Chopin's fiction
    (Univ Estadual Paulista-unesp, 2022-01-01) Finatti, Rosemary Elza [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    This paper seeks to analyze the theme of freedom as the elixir of life, weaving, in turn, a dialogue between the short stories Emancipation: A Fable of Life (1869-1870) and The Story of an Hour (1894), by the American author Kate Chopin. In both narratives, the symbolic setting that delineates the scenery of nature is opposed to the closed space of the cage and the house as a representation of social imprisonment. In this sense, the possibility of breaking through such barriers drives the characters' self-realization, both in the fabled universe represented by an animal that glimpses the possibility of being free and all the implications of the search for survival and in the protagonist Louise Mallard, who, faced with supposed widowhood, imagines a new life metaphorically awakened by the spring scenario. Contesting the imprisonment of individuality and perspectives of the characters confined in claustrophobic spaces, the short stories reveal the author's critical bias towards female limitations imposed by patriarchal ideology. To this end, the analyses will be guided by the considerations of Per Seyersted (1969, 1980), Betty Friedan (1971), Bernard Koloski (1996), among other authors.

    A poética do assombro: as mulheres em contos de Poe
    (Universidade Federal do Ceará, 2020-07-27) Muknicka, Sérgio Gabriel [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    Este artigo pretende, por meio de uma leitura do texto crítico “A filosofia da composição” de Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849), analisar três contos deste autor, nos quais as personagens femininas são componentes fulcrais da história e da trama. Os contos analisados são “Berenice”, “Ligeia” e “Morella”. Almeja-se, também, considerar, à luz do texto teórico, o modo como Poe compôs essas obras. Além de, é claro, investigar a poética do autor e a maneira como as personagens femininas aparecerem inseridas nela. Nas palavras de Baudelaire (1999, p. 16): “E suas mulheres, todas luminosas e doentes, morrendo de doenças estranhas e falando com uma voz que parece uma música, são ele ainda; ou pelo menos [...] participam fortemente da natureza de seu criador.” Observa-se, assim, a maestria do autor americano ao construir suas narrativas breves. Edgar Allan Poe, por meio do pleno domínio de suas proposições teóricas, faz de seus contos um laboratório para a experimentação de novas técnicas e para a construção de efeitos de sentido. Ademais, frisa-se a reiteração dos recursos preferidos do autor, como a repetição, as epígrafes retomadas no interior da narrativa por meio de diálogos e digressões narrativas bem como a simbologia de nomes. O autor tece detalhadamente os contos estudados; ele enlaça as personagens num enredo cuidadosamente construído, fazendo com que esses seres de papel, poliédricos e especulares, possam ser lidos como facetas do próprio artífice atormentado.

    Resenha de "A árvore de luz", poemas de Rina Sara Virgillito
    (Universidade de Brasília / UNB, 2020-10-30) Muknicka, Sérgio Gabriel [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    Esta resenha aborda o livro A árvore de luz da escritora italiana Rina Sara Virgillito. Trata-se de uma importante obra para os estudos de literatura italiana no país. Virgillito concebeu os poemas desse livro utilizando-se, de modo exemplar, dos estratos verbais, visuais e vocais à disposição. A tradução para a língua portuguesa, na maioria das vezes, recupera esse esmero linguístico-poético. O trabalho editorial, além de muito estético, respeita o aproveitamento da página em branco nos poemas traduzidos. Por fim, essa tradução apresenta um breve estudo introdutório, o que também auxilia leitores iniciantes no universo da poetisa milanesa.

    Communities of practice through intercultural telecollaboration
    (2022-05-27) Castro-Prieto, Paloma; Salomão, Ana Cristina Biondo [UNESP]; Derivry-Plard, Martine; Fan, Sa-Hui; University of Valladolid; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Institute of Education; National Taichung University of Education
    Communities of practice provide challenging learning opportunities based on the principles of interaction, participation, dialogue, and relationship building. This chapter aims to explore how intercultural telecollaboration contributes to the development of a multicultural community of practice in the context of initial teacher education. Four groups of student teachers from four different languages and cultures- two in Europe, one in Asia, and one in South America-work together through the medium of English in an intercultural telecollaboration project. The project is examined in terms of community building through the experience journal of the student teachers as a reflective narrative on how they built a sense of community to sustain their interactions and negotiation of meaning. The findings strongly suggest that intercultural telecollaboration creates a powerful learning environment where students and teachers can find opportunities to cooperate, understand and support each other, and enhance their perceptions of teaching English from an intercultural perspective.

    That's impossible for me: the genre and pragmatic strategy chosen by Spaniards and Brazilians when refusing in digital and academic interactions
    (2021-01-01) González, Sara Berrio; Leralta, Susana Martín; Rocha, Nildicéia Aparecida [UNESP]; Facultad de Lenguas y Educación; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    This article empirically analyzes the genre and pragmatic strategy chosen by 30 Spanish and 30 Brazilian university students. In order to achieve this goal, both groups conducted a DCT composed of eight academic situations with different relative power, social distance and power rankings. In each situation they had to decide whether to send an e-mail or a private message on Facebook. The data gathered from the corpus shows that the Brazilians have a slight preference for private messages on Facebook whereas the Spaniards demonstrated an orientation toward e-mails. However, both groups had a predilection for direct strategies, especially when refusing in low power rank or high social distance situations. All in all, there are pragmatic differences hidden behind the false image of transparency that related languages share. It is necessary to unveil them in order to avoid pragmatic failures and achieve successful cross-cultural interactions.

    Developing teachers’ competencies through intercultural telecollaboration
    (2021-01-01) Derivry-Plard, Martine; Castro-Prieto, Paloma; Salomão, Ana Cristina Biondo [UNESP]; Fan, Sa-Hui; Bordeaux University; University of Valladolid; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); National Taichung University of Education
    This chapter aims at describing and discussing how a virtual intercultural exchange environment designed through three continents to support the learning and collaborative activities of student-teachers from Brazil, Spain, France, and Taiwan can be used to develop teachers’ competencies. Students from four different languages and cultures work together using the medium of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) to exchange their views on education through collaborative tasks. An in-depth analysis of the above learning environment will be presented, transferring what we gained from the students’ experiences into a teacher training proposal. In our specific intercultural exchange context, we will discuss what the tasks are, what they are used for, and how they prove to be essential as emerging practices of reflection and negotiation of intercultural reality when different perspectives interact. This three-continent environment also helps build emerging core educative cultures among future professionals in education for teachers of English or teachers of other disciplines using ELF. In the context of competency-based teacher education, intercultural telecollaboration is viewed as a challenge and as an opportunity for the development of competency-based repertoires of teachers in intercultural communication.

    Competency-based teacher education and sociocultural theory: Exploring connections
    (2021-01-01) Salomão, Ana Cristina Biondo [UNESP]; Bedran, Patrícia Fabiana [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    This chapter aims to present an overview of language teacher education, discussing concepts such as teacher training and teacher development, and implications of how contemporary perspectives on different practice situations are driving forces toward the reconceptualization of the knowledge base of teacher education. Learning to teach today is understood as a long and complex process of development resulting from participation in social practices and contexts associated with teaching and learning. Therefore, we intend to discuss how a sociocultural perspective meets an interpretative view of reality and provides elements for the (re)construction and transformation of teaching practices. This places knowledge as intimately and dynamically linked to experience and highlights the role of human agency in professional development. We then relate this to competency-based language education.

    Analysis of mixing construction and demolition waste with soil for embankments
    (Ice Publishing, 2022-08-26) Arruda, Mauro Sergio Zakia Jabur [UNESP]; Mancini, Sandro Donnini [UNESP]; Rodrigues, Roger Augusto [UNESP]; Antunes, Maria Lucia Pereira [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    In some countries, there are cases of inadequate destination and even final disposal of construction and demolition waste (CDW), which contributes to environmental degradation and material wastes. The construction sector is a great consumer of natural resources, and CDW can sometimes be useful to minimise the need for natural materials, including embankment filling, which could use a large volume of material. In these cases, the use of CDW can be promising if the embankment quality is not affected; and it will have a great economic advantage. This paper aims to assess experimentally the feasibility and potential benefits of employing CDW mixed with soil in embankments. CDW samples were collected from three recycling facilities in Brazil and mixed with lateritic soil. Compaction tests determined optimum parameters of the lateritic soil, and the soil mixed with 25 and 50% of CDW. The maximum dry densities of the mixtures changed slightly compared to natural soil. The mixtures' optimum water content increased only 2% in relation to the soil without waste, which means that the compaction of the mixtures will require 10-20% more water, depending on CDW quality. Results show that these materials and proportions can be considered for possible application in embankments.

    Portraits of the missive writer as a young man: Figurations of the modern artist in james joyce's love correspondence
    (2021-05-01) De Andrade, Rangel Gomes [UNESP]; Vicente, Adalberto Luis [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    In this paper, we approach Irish writer James Joyce's love epistolography addressed to his wife Nora Barnacle departing from the personas the writer develops in his letters. These epistolary personas, themselves representations of the modern artist as produced by Romantic-Symbolist aesthetics, manifest themselves as masks adopted by Joyce in the letter's scenographic stage. We first prioritize a theoretical perspective of the let ter as a performatic process marked by the staging and masquerading of the self. Hereinafter, we present the Joycean love correspondence and its context of production, aiming to analyze the personas that are expressed in these letters, in particular the social and literary figures of the outsider and the dandy, and with which Joyce covers his epistolary enunciation.

    REBECA: Turning WordNet databases into Ontolexicons
    (2010-01-01) Dias-da-Silva, Bento Carlos [UNESP]; Di Felippo, Ariani; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Universidade de São Paulo (USP); Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCar)
    In this paper we outline the design and present a sample of the REBECA bilingual lexical-conceptual database constructed by linking two monolingual lexical resources in which a set of lexicalized concepts of the North-American English database, the Princeton WordNet (WN. Pr) synsets, is aligned with its corresponding set of lexicalized concepts of the Brazilian Portuguese database, the Brazilian Portuguese WordNet synsets under construction, by means of the MultiNet-based interlingual schema, the concepts of which are the ones represented by the Princeton WordNet synsets. Implemented in the Protégé-OWL editor, the alignment of the two databases illustrates how wordnets can be turned into ontolexicons. At the current stage of development, the wheeled-vehicle conceptual domain was modeled to develop and to test REBECA's design and contents, respectively. The collection of 205 ontological concepts worked out, i.e. REBECÁs alignment indexes, is exemplified in the wheeled-vehicle conceptual domain, e.g. [CAR], [RAILCAR], etc., and it was selected in the WN. Pr database, version 2.0. Future work includes the population of the database with more lexical data and other conceptual domains so that the intricacies of adding more concepts and devising the spreading or pruning the relationships between them can be properly evaluated.

    Concepções de cultura no ensino de línguas: reflexões para a formação professores
    (2017-04-01) Salomão, Ana Cristina Biondo [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    The increasing intercultural communication through digital technologies in the world today makes us reflect on the need to rethink the relationship between language, culture and society in language teacher education. In this article, we discuss some of the results of a qualitative research conducted in the context of the 'Teletandem Brazil', Unesp, in a continuing education course for foreign language teachers of public schools. The results show a tendency of teachers to treat culture as a body of knowledge about the products, practices and perspectives of a people, usually associated with a homogeneous, static and conflictfree nation-state. The impacts of these results for language teacher training point to the need for a review of the knowledge base of teacher education with regard to teaching and learning culture in the foreign language classroom, in order to dissociate it from the idea of a homogeneous, transparent and fixed body of knowledge.

    The automatic mapping of Princeton WordNet lexical-conceptual relations onto the Brazilian Portuguese WordNet database
    (2008-01-01) Dias-Da-silva, Bento Carlos [UNESP]; Di Felippo, Ariani [UNESP]; Das Graças Volpe Nunes, Maria; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Universidade de São Paulo (USP)
    Princeton WordNet (WN.Pr) lexical database has motivated efficient compilations of bulky relational lexicons since its inception in the 1980's. The EuroWordNet project, the first multilingual initiative built upon WN.Pr, opened up ways of building individual wordnets, and interrelating them by means of the so-called Inter-Lingual-Index, an unstructured list of the WN.Pr synsets. Other important initiative, relying on a slightly different method of building multilingual wordnets, is the MultiWordNet project, where the key strategy is building language specific wordnets keeping as much as possible of the semantic relations available in the WN.Pr. This paper, in particular, stresses that the additional advantage of using WN.Pr lexical database as a resource for building wordnets for other languages is to explore possibilities of implementing an automatic procedure to map the WN.Pr conceptual relations as hyponymy, co-hyponymy, troponymy, meronymy, cause, and entailment onto the lexical database of the wordnet under construction, a viable possibility, for those are language-independent relations that hold between lexicalized concepts, not between lexical units. Accordingly, combining methods from both initiatives, this paper presents the ongoing implementation of the WN.Br lexical database and the aforementioned automation procedure illustrated with a sample of the automatic encoding of the hyponymy and co-hyponymy relations.

    O mito de Ulisses em Se questo è un uomo
    (Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2012) Mauro, Claudia Fernanda de Campos [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    Este trabalho parte do mito de Ulisses retomado por Dante e se concentra na leitura feita por Levi do canto dantesco , bem como da (re) elaboração da última aventura do herói grego no contexto da história pessoal do escritor. Trata-se de um moderno Ulisses apresentando uma visão moderna do Inferno. Em Dante, Ulisses está entre as almas condenadas a pagar eternamente seus pecados e, ao mesmo tempo, testemunhas e narradores, capazes de contar o processo da própria morte. Neste sentido, o viajante grego tornou-se , a partir da publicação da obra de memória do Holocausto escrita por Primo Levi, o símbolo do testemunho dos campos de concentração. O exemplo clássico da presença de Dante na narrativa de Levi é o capítulo XI do livro Se questo è un uomo , intitulado “Il canto di Ulisse”, onde prosa e poesia se encontram. O mito de Ulisses, que representa a exaltação do homem inteligente, ávido de conhecimento, que chega às portas do grande mistério da existência humana torna-se, em Levi, um instrumento didático. Recitar uma poesia assume, no universo do campo de concentração, o valor de um ato político e humano, uma afirmação coletiva dos valores que aquele sistema pretendia destruir.

    The Essayistic Form in Antonio Candido's Literary Criticism: Tradition and Rupture
    (Univ Fed Minas Gerais, Fac Letras, 2020-10-01) Andrade, Rangel Gomes [UNESP]; Vicente, Adalberto Luis [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    Antonio Candido is one of the most important Brazilian essayists. While exploiting the essayistic form, Candido joins an important tradition, which has marked national thinking. However, the critic gives a step forward in terms of tradition as he combines it with a solid theoretical knowledge from his academic education, promoting a level of specialization his predecessors had lacked. Basing on essay theorists, interpreters of Candido's work, and having the critic Sergio Milliet as the transition point between Candido's previous and current generation, we intend to promote reflection on Candido's essayistic style departing from a movement that aims to situate him on the limits of tradition and rupture.
