Title: Camadas de alienação e estranhamento no século XX Abstract: The aim of this work is to investigate whether, in the twentieth century, capitalism develops new manifestations of alienation or estrangement different from those described by Marx in the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts and by him and Engels in The German Ideology and The Communist Manifesto. To this end, it was necessary to examine the historical process of the formation of these concepts in Hegel, as well as Marx’s and Engels’ debate with Feuerbach. With the concepts clearly defined, we studied the theory of value and the development of the productive forces in the twentieth century, especially the Taylorism and the process of the financialization of the economy, to determine whether new manifestations of alienation or estrangement emerge in the new labor relations that arose during that century. We analyze how the labor and exchange relations developed in the twentieth century add layers of alienation/estrangement in relation to the general forms of alienation/estrangement described by Marx and Engels in the nineteenth century. We point out that these layers of alienation are specific forms of the general forms identified in the nineteenth century. Finally, we argue that there are no fundamentally different forms of alienation/estrangement, since the forms described by Marx indicate that the basis of alienation lies in private property; and as this foundation has not changed, the general forms of alienation/estrangement remain the same. What changes, rather, is the emergence of new ways of how we perceive alienation.

Title: Linguagem, civilização e moral no pensamento de Friedrich Nietzsche Abstract: This study analyzes Friedrich Nietzsche's critique of Western civilization, taking his radical distrust of language as a guiding thread. The investigation posits that Nietzschean philosophy is not merely a theoretical deconstruction, but offers a path toward overcoming moral and existential decadence. Methodologically, the study relies on the analysis of the author's primary works, supported by the theoretical framework of commentators such as Patrick Wotling and Carlos Alberto Ribeiro de Moura. Initially, it examines the genesis of language in the essay On Truth and Lie in an Extra-Moral Sense, revealing that truth is not a reflection of reality, but a metaphorical and conventional network that, once petrified, becomes the foundation of a deception that defines civilization. Subsequently, the research delves into the relationship between language and the formation of civilization, discussing how the crystallization of words serves as a tool for establishing herd morality and domesticating instincts. It analyzes how this scenario culminates in the creation of bad conscience—a mechanism through which the individual introjects guilt and submits to a regulatory authority. Finally, the will to power is presented as the Nietzschean response to decadence, understood not as a first principle, but as an interpretive hypothesis that reads reality through the body and the affirmation of life. It concludes that, by unmasking language and morality as conventions, Nietzsche opens space for overcoming decadent man in favor of a new mode of existence, capable of creating new values and affirming life in its growing multiplicity.

Title: A imaginação produtiva e reprodutiva em Immanuel Kant Abstract: This study investigates the faculty of imagination (Einbildungskraft) in Immanuel Kant's Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View, aiming to understand its nature, its different aptitudes, and its role in the constitution of human experience. It is based on the interpretation that, in this work, imagination belongs primarily to the domain of sensibility rather than thought, a position grounded especially in the interpretation proposed by Olavo Calabria. First, the Kantian distinction between sensibility, imagination, and understanding is examined, highlighting the intermediary role of imagination between feeling and thinking. Next, the productive and reproductive aptitudes of imagination are analyzed, showing that the former originally organizes sensible manifold, making experience possible, while the latter reactivates previously acquired representations. The study also examines the authorial faculties described by Kant, including plastic sensible imagination, associative imagination, and affinity, as well as the voluntary and involuntary impulses and the autonomous and heteronomous modes of imagination. In order to clarify these distinctions, the research draws on everyday examples, personal experiences, artistic manifestations, and philosophical analogies, seeking to bring Kantian reflection closer to ordinary experience without compromising conceptual rigor. The research is based on a bibliographical review, taking Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View as its primary source, complemented by secondary literature on the subject. It concludes that imagination plays an indispensable role in human life by organizing sensible experience, enabling recollection, guiding artistic creation, and continuously mediating the relationship between the subject and the world, thereby revealing itself as one of the richest and most complex faculties in Kant's philosophy.
