As ciências humanas discutiram a questão da interdisciplinaridade ao longo do século XX. Mas, já no século anterior, figuras notáveis, como Wilhelm Dilthey e Karl Marx, questionavam-se sobre os paradigmas monistas da explicação e da compreensão. Interrogação reproduzida, entre muitos, por Sigmund Freud, Max Weber, Claude Lévi-Strauss, Fernand Braudel, Michel Serres. Em Educação, o grupo de Doutorado em Ciências da Educação, de Paris VIII, há 30 anos adotou a multirreferencialidade como metodologia hegemônica.

O artigo procura construir, a partir de uma memória da Reforma Sanitária Brasileira e de aproximações entre as áreas científicas da Educação e da Saúde, uma micropercepção (matéria para o pensar, aprender, conhecer) emergência de um domínio de conhecimento designado por Educação e Ensino da Saúde. Esse domínio emergente estaria bastante associado invenção da Saúde Coletiva, no campo científico da saúde, e com à invenção do Controle Social em Saúde, no campo da intervenção política nesse setor. O novo domínio de conhecimento seria caracterizado por uma implicação singular do ensino com a cidadania, permitindo a travessia de fronteiras entre educação e saúde pela via da educação permanente em saúde. Os temas do ensino e da cidadania são problematizados com o auxílio explícito ou não (via seus leitores) de alguns pensadores da filosofia e do contemporâneo, como Michel Foucault, Michel Serres, Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Francisco Varela, Humberto Maturana e Ilya Prigogine.

During the Middle Ages, integumentum was a term widely used by “intellectuals” (Le Goff) in order to unfold the function of allegory: there is no story whose signification does not echo the sacred texts, and every sacred truth needs a story to bring it to life. Integumentum was a way to make this echo explicit: a sort of “poetical coat hiding a moral or philosophical truth” (John of Garland). We want to suggest that, while no one uses integumentum anymore in order to designate the rhetoric of modern and contemporary theoretical discourse, it is in ecological theory that we may rediscover its afterlives. Hence, integumentum is not only a form of telling truths, but a form of memory, as well. In this respect, Michel Serres may be considered the first “ecological” thinker, as he avoids abstract metalanguages as much as possible, relying instead on fictions and characters in his attempt to describe the world afresh. If integumentum resurfaces as the proper way of “ecologizing,” instead of modernizing (Latour), we would like to uncover, in Michel Serres’ works, the dialectic of subjects and objects.

The paper presents the philosophy of the French philosopher Michel Serres, with an accent on his working method and unusual methodology. Starting from the thesis that the empiricist trait of Serres? philosophy remains underexposed if one simply receives his work as that of a structuralist epistemologist, Serres? monograph The Five Senses (1985) is then discussed in more detail. Here we see both a radical empiricism all his own and a closeness to phenomenology. Nevertheless, perception and language are not opposed to each other in Serres. Rather, his radical thinking of a world-relatedness of the bodily senses and an equally consistent understanding of a sensuality of language - and also of philosophical prose - are closely intertwined.

This article is part of a wider research project exploring connections between ideas of grammar and drawing. Here, prepositions are the focus ‐ tiny, overlooked, undeniably ubiquitous words that articulate crucial relations between their dominant cousins, verbs and nouns. They are dwelt on here for carrying deep metaphorical overtones and having considerable potential for visual engagement. The discussion is situated ‐ in section 1 ‐ via the playfully poetical philosophy of Michel Serres, and ‐ in section 2 ‐ through Barbara Tversky’s thought-provoking analyses of highly integrated verbal-visual patterning within the mechanics of thinking. Section 3 introduces the author’s visual glossary of grammar, currently in development. This aims to present the underpinning energy of grammatical forms which are key to language production, using simple visualizations to communicate the aesthetic drive of syntax in its organization of words. The digital drawings presented hark back to the formalized modernist abstractions considered in the first section, but also to the glyphs and basic visual vocabulary of common diagrams that have been analysed by Tversky. The article ends by suggesting that the crucial qualities of prepositions ‐ being on the edge and in between, rather than obviously central to meaning like nouns and verbs ‐ resonate particularly well with current tendencies in drawing practice and wider cultural debates.

Resultado de investigações, ainda em curso, acerca das smart cities, este artigo analisa as contradições de uma cidade idealizada como perfeita, a Smart city Songdo (Coreia do Sul). Para isso, definimos inicialmente o que as empresas compreendem por Smart city e adentramos para a reflexão dos territórios e Multiterritórios, a dialogar com as propostas teóricas de Haesbaert, Santos e com as propostas filosóficas de   Lefebvre, nos temas do direito à cidade e a revolução urbana, os quais também recorremos aos geógrafos Edward Soja e David Harvey. Michel Serres nos apresenta suas análises do mal limpo de nosso período atual, no qual a sociedade assume outras formas de demarcação de territórios ao produzir lixo e resíduos e tenta livrar-se deles. Diante dessas colocações, entendemos Songdo como uma distopia do capital global.
