The proposal made 50 years ago by Schulman :1558–1569, 1968), Laidlaw and Morette-DeWitt :1375–1378, 1971) and Dowker to decompose the propagator according to the homotopy classes of paths was a major breakthrough: it showed how Feynman functional integrals opened a direct window on quantum properties of topological origin in the configuration space. This paper casts a critical look at the arguments brought by this series of papers and its numerous followers in an attempt to clarify the reason why the emergence (...) of the unitary linear representation of the first homotopy group is not only sufficient but also necessary.

Dois temas atravessam este artigo: cidade e imaginário religioso. Como pressupostos referenciais trabalha-se a problemática do espaço e dos lugares. De sua interação emerge a origem da Igreja, o contexto da formação católica brasileira e sua inscrição no campo do imaginário. Palavras-chave: Cidade; Imaginário religioso; Espaço/lugar; História. ABSTRACT This article comprises two themes: the city and the religious imaginary, approached with basis on the concepts of space and places. From their interaction emerge the origin of the Church, the context of (...) Brazilian catholic background and its insertion in the field of the imaginary.

É possível viver no mundo sem Deus? É possível viver no mundo sem religião? O autor deste texto apresenta uma resposta afirmativa a essas indagações, fundamentando-a com as ideias de Bertrand Russell. Para o autor, quando a noção de viver bem é fundamentada na verdade provisória da ciência e contrária à vida proposta pela religião, os fiéis e os representantes eclesiásticos utilizam argumentos emocionais e falaciosos para postular a verdade da fé. Ele parte do pressuposto de que entre religião e (...) ciência há conflitos, e não diálogos. Os conflitos se instauram na medida em que se percebe que a verdade humana é de processos, erros e acertos, não de certezas. A certeza da existência de Deus e do plano divino se justifica a partir de argumentos emocionais, que no mais das vezes levam a atos de crueldade e violência, como mostra a história. Para melhor compreender de que maneira os argumentos emocionais dos fiéis são legitimados, o autor recorre ao caso pessoal de Russell, quando o filósofo se viu impedido de lecionar na Faculdade de Filosofia Municipal de Nova York, nos anos 40 do século XX, devido a seu pensamento contrário à religião. Palavras-chave : Ateísmo; Religião; Ciência; Fundamentalismo religioso.Is it possible to live without God? Is it possible to live without religion in the midst of faithful? Starting from the premise of conflict, not dialogue, between religion and science, the author uses the ideas of Bertrand Russell to support affirmative answers to these questions. When the notion of the good life is based on the provisional truth of science, rather than on religion, the faithful and the ecclesiastic representatives postulate the truth of faith using emotional and fallacious arguments. The conflict between religion and science arises with the perception that human truth is based on processes, errors and successes, not on certainties. The conviction of the existence of God and of a divine plan is justified by emotional arguments, in general accompanied by acts of cruelty and violence, as we know from history. In order to improve our understanding of how the faithful attempt to justify their emotional arguments, the author cites Russell's case, when the philosopher was prevented from teaching at the College of the City of New York (CCNY), in the 1940s due to his anti-religious ideas. Key words : Atheism; Religion; Science; Religious fundamentalism. (shrink)

The volume presents the proceedings of the international symposium, fruit of a common research project engaged in by 48 scholars, that took place in Rome to celebrate the 8th centennial of Saint Bonaventure's birth. The theme, "Deus summe cognoscibilis", could sound, in the contemporary agnostic, secular context, like a provocation. The approach, however, of the symposium was to consider "the current theological relevance of Saint Bonaventure", focusing on thinking with our author about a number of themes: theological method (philosophy, theology (...) and mysticism); revelation (in Scripture and history); creation (in Laudato si' and evolution); Christology (the triplex Verbum and logos of the Cross); ecclesiology and Trinitarian dimensions of sacramental theology; pre-phenomenological Trinitarian theology, and our own divine filiation. An appendix contains a previously unpublished text of J. Ratzinger about Bonaventure's theological method. The volume has also two indexes (authors' names and references to the works of Bonaventure).

L'élection du sacerdoce, aux origines de la Compagnie de Jésus, paraît relever d'une évidence que n'explicitent guère les documents fondateurs. À la lumière de l'histoire, des Exercices, de la Storta, des premiers ministères et de la genèse de la Formula, ce choix d'un sacerdoce apostolique, pauvre et lettré, semble s'inscrire dans le désir d'imiter le Christ et les apôtres dans la totalité sacramentelle de leurs paroles et de leurs gestes. Centré sur la Parole, la Réconciliation et «l'office de consolation», enraciné (...) dans l'Eucharistie, le sacerdoce jésuite dessine une manière originale d'exercer le triple munus docendi, sanctificandi et gubernandi, dont Presbyterorum ordinis se fera l'écho.

Background: The COVID-19 crisis has had a considerable mental health impact on healthcare workers. High levels of psychological distress are expected to have a significant impact on healthcare systems, warranting the need for evidence-based psychological interventions targeting stress and fostering resilience in this population. Online cognitive behavioral therapy has proved to be effective in targeting stress and promoting resilience. However, online CBT programs targeting stress in healthcare workers are lacking.Objective: The aim of our study is to evaluate the feasibility and (...) acceptability of an internet-based CBT intervention, the My Health Too program we developed during the first COVID-19 epidemic peak in France.Methods: We recruited 10 participants among Alsace region hospital staff during the first peak of the pandemic in France. They were given 1 week to test the website and were then asked to answer an internet survey and a semi-structured phone interview.Results: We conducted a thematic analysis of the content from the phone interviews. Major themes were identified, discussed and coded: the technical aspects, the content of the website and its impact on participants’ emotions and everyday life. Overall, the participants reported finding the website easy to use and interactive. They described the resources as easy to understand, readily usable, and useful in inducing calm and in helping them practice self-compassion.Conclusion: Our results suggest that the My Health Too online CBT program is highly feasible and acceptable to healthcare workers during the highly stressful times of the pandemic peak. The feedback provided helped to improve the program whose efficacy is to be tested. (shrink)

O Ensino de Sociologia tem se tornado um tema cada vez mais discutido amplamente no campo das Ciências Sociais e da Educação, especialmente a partir de 2008, quando a disciplina é reintroduzida no currículo escolar em nível nacional. A trajetória de Amaury Cesar de Moraes está diretamente ligada ao debate em nível nacional, uma vez que esteve envolvido nas lutas pela reintrodução da disciplina, tendo sido um dos elaboradores das Orientações Curriculares Nacionais de Sociologia, publicadas em 2006, fundador do (...) Grupo de Trabalho “Ensino de Sociologia”, que passou a funcionar junto ao Congresso Brasileiro de Sociologia, e atualmente é presidente da Associação Brasileira de Ensino de Ciências Sociais. (shrink)
