Martha Dantas: o ensino da geometria na Bahia.

Disponível em: http://www2.pucpr.br/reol/pb/index.php/dialogo?dd1=2442&dd99=view&dd98=pbEste artigo faz parte de um projeto de pesquisa que pretende construir fatos históricos da educação matemática no Brasil, em especial, sobre o ensino de geometria na Bahia durante o Movimento da Matemática Moderna. Investigaremos, nesta pesquisa, que proposta de ensino da geometria esteve contida nos livros didáticos do curso ginasial do projeto: Processo entre a exposição e a descoberta - PROED, livros estes produzidos em Salvador na década de 70, que tinha como uma das autoras a matemática e educadora baiana Martha Maria de Souza Dantas. O projeto de pesquisa busca compreender como foi a introdução da geometria moderna na Bahia, para isso fizemos uma descrição e uma análise preliminar de documentos de dois projetos desenvolvidos em Salvador nas décadas de 60 e 70, entre eles o projetoao qual deu origem aos livros didáticos que farão parte de nossa investigação. No corpo desse artigo apresentamos uma cronologia acadêmica de Martha Dantas, pois ao fazermos as primeiras leituras nos documentos recolhidos em Salvador, percebemos que os mesmos estavam fortemente atrelados à vida acadêmica dessa educadora

A Study of Warfare Theodicy in the Writings of Ellen G. White and Gregory A. Boyd

The problem of evil has been an issue for all religions over the centuries. But it is a crucial issue for theism because of its affirmation of the co-existence of an omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent God and evil. Theologians and philosophical theologians have developed a plethora of materials in response to the problem. However, according to critics, none of the responses in and of themselves adequately deals with theism\u27s problem of suffering and evil. As a result, this study explores the warfare theodicy, a Christian response to the problem of sin, suffering, and evil, which seems to have been neglected by scholars for a long time. The study focuses on the writings of Ellen G. White and Gregory A. Boyd, the two foremost detailed and exhaustive presenters of the warfare theodicy in the nineteenth and twenty-first centuries respectively. The goal is to assess the relationship between the two models of warfare theodicy and the plausibility of the warfare theodicy as a Christian response to the problem of suffering and evil. The approach to this study is descriptive, analytical, comparative, and evaluative. Chapter 1 provides a survey of the historical background for the problem of evil and introduces the problem, the purpose, and the methodology of the study. Chapter 2 describes three major Christian approaches to the problem of evil and scholarly critiques of these approaches, while chapters 3 and 4 analytically describe Boyd\u27s and White\u27s models of warfare theodicy, respectively. The first section of chapter 5 compares and contrasts the two models of warfare theodicy and the second section evaluates them. Chapter 6 summarizes the findings of the study and then answers the questions concerning the relationship between the two models of the warfare theodicy and their plausibility as a Christian response to the problem of evil. The study shows that the differing outlook of the authors\u27 use of science in theology leads to divergence in the two models of warfare theodicy. Therefore, to the question of the relationship between the two models, the study concludes that they may be related, but given the degree of their differences they are two distinctive warfare theodicies. Concerning the question of the viability of the warfare theodicy, the study concludes that although both models of the warfare theodicy leave some philosophical questions unanswered, the Great Controversy Theodicy is a more satisfactory Christian response to the problem of suffering and evil, and, the Trinitarian Warfare Theodicy is a less satisfactory Christian response to the problem of evil

O conselho do Marquês

O precedente grupo de artigos dedicados ao mesmo tema –o conselho de decapitar súbditos rebeldes expresso pela acção de cortar as espigas mais altas de uma seara–ocasionou esta nota, em que se propõe um novo subtipo para aquela narrativa, que aparecerá na tradução portuguesa do Catalogue of Portuguese Folktales com o número 924*A, O Conselho dum Tirano. Transcrevem-se também as duas redacções da sua única versão portuguesa, ambas presumivelmente de Cardoso Martha, a primeira de 1912 e a segunda de 1931, procurando ver nelas sinais do tempo que as separa.The previous set of articles on the same theme –the advice to behead rebel subjects signaled with the beheading of corn heads– led to this note, in which a new folktale subtype is proposed for the narrative. From the one version of which there is a transcription in Portugal, I now transcribe its two redactions (both probably by the same redactor, Cardoso Martha), and tried to compare them as significant time indicators, one appearing in 1912 and the other in 1931
