Cultura e Co-Educação de Gerações

This article discusses the peculiar meanings of the development of a popular culture within daily life, originating from the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren in popular classes. Based on long interviews and observations, this essay intends to portray how in this daily relationship both subjects change due to reciprocate influences. It is often believed that elderly people cease to change, however, based on the data collected, this concept deserves to be revised. The challenge of caring for children gave back to these elderly individuals a sense of hope which had seemed lost. Life changed and so did their habits and forms of thinking. Analyzing each small aspect of their daily lives - conversations, stories, advice given, songs, toys, television programs, relationship with animals and nature, we conclude that everything points to new horizons in living.

Memória e sociedade: ciência poética e referência de humanismo

O artigo apresenta um conjunto articulado de reflexoes a respeito do livro Memoria e Sociedade: Lembrancas de Velhos, de Eclea Bosi, aqui considerado como obra-prima da psicologia social e das ciencias humanas. Procura destacar as originalidades de natureza teorico-metodologica do texto, a comecar por uma composicao singular que incorpora poesia na construcao cientifica, passando por uma redefinicao das relacoes entre sujeito e objeto do conhecimento, ao desenvolver a perspectiva de alternância da condicao entre ambos, no desdobramento da pesquisa. Mostra, tambem, como o estudo de Eclea Bosi se fundamenta em estreitos vinculos entre a pesquisadora e os velhos pesquisados, de modo a se formar entre eles uma comunidade de destino.

O orvalho que vem do mar: singela homenagem a Ecléa Bosi

This study is a simple tribute to Profa. Eclea Bosi. It shows some unknown aspects of her life, as her tradutions and poetries, and her militant acting, from the daily life to social and ecological figths. Presents her peculiar way of producing science, adding a poetical look that brings lightness, sensibility and density to the text. These qualities make her work and actitudes as a fundamental reference not only to Pshycology and to all human sciences but to universitary practices and to knowledge production in every field it may be done.

The process of socialization and solidarity

We live in a distinctly individualistic and consumerist society, the repercussions of which interfere in the various forms in which sociability develops. Understanding them requires effort, but even more complex is the challenge to find ways of overcoming the impasses involved in these issues. Would it be possible to identify the deep-rooted relations of social coexistence based on solidarity and with the possibility of them spreading widely within society? The discussion starts with socialization based on the verticality of interactions, passing through interpretations where there is room for reciprocal influences between subjects, and ends with a rapprochement between socialization and solidary culture, seeking an alternate path. While still modest, it is real, as experienced by people who are at the same time so close to us and often so remote from our perception.
