    O que pode acontecer entre o Teatro e o Ensino de Ciências? Quais as potencialidades da composição Ensino de Ciências com jogos teatrais? Que agenciamentos podem surgir desse encontro? Ao seguir as trilhas da filosofia da diferença em educação, inspirada em Gilles Deleuze, investiga-se, a partir de uma cartografia, a experiência da oficina de teatro Ciência inCena. Nela, alunos-atores escolheram o conteúdo de peixes a ser trabalhado a partir de jogos teatrais. O processo de montagem de Pedro e o mar ou como os peixes hão de voar indica possibilidades de se pensar outras narrativas para os sujeitos e objetos das aulas de ciências e as relações que os comportam

    This paper discusses the Mémoire sur l'intérieur de l'Afrique, written by the French scholar Joseph Jérôme Lefrançois de Lalande. It analyses Lalande's aims, arguments and claims regarding his subject of study - the "inner parts" of Africa - against the background of scientific, commercial, political and military tensions between France and Britain. It situates Lalande's discourse within the broader context of the competing "science policies" of both states in the second half of the eighteenth century. It is an investigation of the sudden re-emergence of Africa as an object of knowledge in the relationship between power and science. The paper focuses on the continuous interaction between France and Britain in African affairs, and highlights the shift from a mere "Enlightened" exploration from the 1720s to Lalande's revolutionary time, when Africa became the object of a "Banksian" takeover, enhancing British interest in the "unknown" interior of the African continent by setting up large-scale, interrelated research missions with practical goals. This provoked reactions from the French side, reflected in Lalande's dissertation
