Resumo: Trata-se de apresentar a questão ético-política que o problema da alteridade animal coloca através de uma articulação entre filosofia e literatura. Para tanto, primeiramente exponho uma leitura parcial sobre as diversas conferências dadas por Jacques Derrida em torno do assunto. Conferências essas reunidas sobre o título “O animal que logo sou”, verdadeiro ensaio para uma filosofia futura capaz de (re)escrever a animalidade a partir da tradição filosófica. Nesta releitura, proponho que o principal resultado do texto derridiano é uma recolocação da questão ética da violência sobre o outro, assim como uma reflexão política sobre o caráter antropocêntrico da modernidade. Feito isso, passo para uma análise de um conto de Clarice Lispector intitulado “O crime do professor de matemática”. Conto que compõe a coletânea Laços de Família e que consiste em um agudo relato sobre a relação entre o homem e o animal. Mais do que um simples exercício de exemplificação, trata-se de pensar com a literatura um tema que, historicamente, fora enclausurado pelo discurso filosófico no dualismo próprio ao que Derrida chama de “tradição do cogito”.Palavras-chaves: Derrida; Lispector; animal studies; humanismo; desconstrução.Abstract: It is a matter of presenting, through an articulation between philosophy and literature, the ethical-political question that the problem of animal alterity poses. For this, I first present a partial reading on the various lectures given by Jacques Derrida on the subject. Conferences that have been assembled on the title “The Animal that therefore I am “, a true essay for a future philosophy capable of (re) writing animality from its own tradition. In this rereading, I propose that the main result of the Derridian text is a replacement of the ethical question of violence over the other, as well as a political reflection on the anthropocentric character of modernity. Having done that, I turn to an analysis of a short story by Clarice Lispector entitled “O crime do professor de matemática”. Short story which consists of an acute report on the relationship between man and animal. More than a simple exercise of exemplification, it is a matter of thinking with literature a theme that has historically been cloistered by philosophical discourse in the binarism proper to what Derrida calls the “cogito tradition.”Keywords: Derrida; Lispector; animal studies; humanism; desconstruction.

In his 1838 Peter Pilgrim, or a Rambler’s Recollections, Robert Bird noted the abundant evidence for ancient human activity in the caverns of the western country, with the associated ironies of modern exploitation: . . . it is quite plain that the Mammoth Cave was once the dwelling-place of man—of a race of the Anakim, as some will have it, whose bones were disinterred in the vestibule . . . The tribe has vanished, and their bones (to what base uses we may return!) converted into gunpowder, have been employed to wing many a death against their warring descendants. . . . Although he included a garbled account of the Caney Branch mummies— “petrified ancients”—Bird did not mention the Kentucky Mummy herself. Thus her transformation over twenty-odd years into an archaeological icon, and then into institutional capital, also effectively obscured the intimate connection between those remains and their place of origin. Indeed, refractions of the discovery can be found in the broader American literature of the 1830s. William Cullen Bryant’s 1832 short story “The Skeleton in the Cave” adapts literary gothic imagery to a distinctively American setting, which features caverns and bones. Over time, however, the Kentucky Mummy reappeared in lore specific to Mammoth Cave itself. Visitors saw sites associated with the Mummy, variously along the “Gothic Avenue” or in the “Haunted Chamber.” A complex web of tales developed of bodies excavated, reburied, or lost, of Indian children long dead but perfectly preserved. Tours stopped at a niche associated with the Mummy and took “time for reverie. It cost me no coaxing to have mine,” wrote Nathaniel Parker Willis; “of all the ladies of past ages I doubt whether there is one who is the subject of a more perpetual series of unwritten poems.” The 1840s invention of traditions concerning the Kentucky Mummy reflects a deepening of the relationship between settlers and the western landscape, which with time and familiarity had evolved from a featureless wilderness into a place with history and meaning.

As cidades têm grande importância econômica, cultural e política na vida das pessoas que as habitam, ou que, de algum modo dependem delas. Essa temática tem sido estudada e apresentada de diversas formas por pesquisadores de várias áreas do conhecimento, configurando-se como uma discussão bem expressiva na Geografia. São encontrados no meio acadêmico brasileiro trabalhos que visam um ensino de cidade com foco para munícipios específicos, o que tem aproximado os conceitos inerentes à temática à realidade dos alunos, possibilitando melhor compreensão e aprendizagem. Além disso, é um assunto a partir do qual os professores podem trabalhar diversos temas e conceitos geográficos. A Geografia, por meio do ensino de cidade, proporciona aos alunos riquíssimas discussões sobre o viver urbano, os processos de (re)produção, os agentes envolvidos nesse processo, as lutas e os conflitos expressos nesses espaços. Assim, o objetivo desse trabalho é apontar as contribuições do ensino cidade para a formação cidadã, expor encaminhamentos de assuntos que podem ser estudados nesse conteúdo e apresentar algumas produções referentes ao ensino de cidade e a relação com a Geografia, publicados no âmbito das pós-graduações e em alguns periódicos. Como resultados temos uma pesquisa bibliográfica sobre o tema em questão, além de encaminhamentos que contribuem para o ensino de cidade.  Palavras-chave Geografia, Ensino de Cidade, Cidadania.   THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF GEOGRAPHY TO CITY TEACHING AND CITIZEN EDUCATION Abstract Cities have great economic, cultural and political importance in the lives of the people who inhabit them, or who in some way depend on them. This theme has been studied and presented in different ways by researchers from various areas of knowledge, configuring itself as a very expressive discussion in Geography. There are works in the Brazilian academic environment that aim at teaching the city with a focus on specific municipalities, which has brought the concepts inherent to the theme closer to the students' reality, enabling better understanding and learning. In addition, it is a subject from which teachers can work on various geographic themes and concepts. Geography, through city teaching, provides students with very rich discussions about urban living, the (re) production processes, the agents involved in this process, the struggles and conflicts expressed in these spaces. Thus, the objective of this work is to point out the contributions of city education to citizen education, expose subjects that can be studied in this content and present some productions related to city education and the relationship with Geography, published in the scope of graduations and in some journals. As a result, we have a bibliographic research on the subject in question, in addition to referrals that contribute to the teaching of the city. Keywords Geography, City teaching, Citizenship.

The article points to the advantages of utilizing books chosen and read by students during lessons of Polish. As illustrative example here serves Tajemnicza śmierć Marianny Biel written by Marta Matyszczak, a contemporary detective novel, published in 2017, partially narrated from the perspective small invalid mongrel. The novel’s structure is conducive to discussion of detective stories in didactic work, showing the “Silesian” features of the novel’s characters, and analyzing their seemingly superficial characters. On the basis of the novel, the subject of animal studies may be raised: the animality of the relationship between humans and animals. The article draws attention to the importance of the animal issues in humanities, going beyond the understanding thereof as “the animality of human nature.” It emphasizes the essence of giving voice to the animals and empowering them, without trying to “humanize” them.

Political Question

This chapter looks at the limits of obligation in another context, that of subjects travelling from one commonwealth to another. Like the body of the subject, the physical movement of the traveler implicates another interface between the civic and the natural, this time the relationship between political space and the space of local motion—the space in which all physical beings, not just humans, move. Implicitly, it poses a fundamental political question about the city as a juridical entity: whether such a body is spatially limited, and if so, how it can be that a non-physical body has a spatial location. In this sense, the border between the political and the natural and the border of the commonwealth are mutually under construction.

Biologic Factors

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.

The Relationship

This book promises a ‘radical reappraisal’ (Kates 2005, xv) of Derrida, concentrating particularly on the relationship of Derrida to philosophy, one of the most vexed questions in the reception of his work. The aim of the book is to provide the grounds for this reappraisal through a reinterpretation in particular of two of the major works Derrida published in 1967: Speech and Phenomena and Of Grammatology. However the study of the development of Derrida's work is the real achievement of the book as Kates discusses major works dating from the 1954 study of genesis in Husserl's phenomenology through to the essays on Levinas and Foucault in the early 1960's as part of his story of how Derrida arrived at the writing of the two major works from 1967.

Queen Margaret (1070–93) has been the subject of much historical research. Previous studies of the queen and later saint have been undertaken from several different perspectives, including the biographical, institutional and hagiographical. In addition, some scholars have focused on her piety and later cult. Although a saint's miracles were one of the significant elements affecting the development of a cult, far less interest has been shown in the geopolitical importance of the miracles attributed to St Margaret and the relationship between the miracles and the saint's cult. The intention of this paper is to examine the miracles attributed to St Margaret and to identify their characteristics within the context of their contribution to, and influence in, the development of her cult.

The Relationship

Pragmatism and its consequences are central issues in American politics today, yet scholars rarely examine in detail the relationship between pragmatism and politics. This book systematically explores the subject and makes a strong case for adopting a pragmatist approach to democratic politics—and for giving priority to democracy in the process of selecting and reforming political institutions. What is the primary value of democracy? When should we make decisions democratically and when should we rely on markets? And when should we accept the decisions of unelected officials, such as judges or bureaucrats? This book explores how a commitment to pragmatism should affect our answers to such important questions. It concludes that democracy is a good way of determining how these kinds of decisions should be made—even if what the democratic process determines is that not all decisions should be made democratically. So, for example, the democratically elected U.S. Congress may legitimately remove monetary policy from democratic decision-making by putting it under the control of the Federal Reserve. This book argues that pragmatism offers an original and compelling justification of democracy in terms of the unique contributions democratic institutions can make to processes of institutional choice. This focus highlights the important role that democracy plays, not in achieving consensus or commonality, but rather in addressing conflicts. Indeed, the book suggest that democratic politics is perhaps best seen less as a way of reaching consensus or agreement than as a way of structuring the terms of persistent disagreement.
