Primarily using the work Emile, or On Education (books I and II), we began by identifying the educational practices related to children that the author considered inadequate in his time: from the lack of breastfeeding by their mothers, to the lack of understanding of the form of language and communication of babies, also passing through the lack of freedom of movement (immobilizing bandages and the use of inappropriate devices, such as baby walkers), to unnecessary interference in the learning and development process of the baby and child. He realizes, thanks to his readings of the classics, that the education of the body, physical education, is also a fundamental requirement for the emotional, cognitive and moral development of children and young people; thus, we recover these ideas and their possible influences on the author's thoughts. Subsequently, after analyzing the BNCC, we compared Rousseau's ideas with this normative document, and regarding physical education, the philosopher's thoughts seem to be of great value. Despite appearing contradictory, they align with what is advocated in the current BNCC. In addition to perceiving significant progress in the country's educational laws, we detected an evolution from the view that physical education is merely sports practice, conceived by the LDB (Law of Directives and Bases of National Education) of 1971 and the educational policies of the military regime, to the idea that it is a bodily culture of movement for all. Therefore, Rousseau highlights the importance of the method of education from nature for the formation of children, allowing greater freedom for them to develop according to the natural flow, and thus promotes this discussion, guided by the use of movement and various bodily practices to validate his proposals. In this way, allowing reflection and connection between Rousseau, Physical Education, and the bodily culture of movement. 2026-02-11T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48447 Title: Desejo e sujeição em Judith Butler Abstract: The condition of subjection constitutes subjects through material and subjective relations, as argued by Judith Butler, thereby, this research seeks to understand how desire can be related to subjection and what possible changes this condition causes in desires and in some important aspects of subjects' lives, such as identity and recognition, affection, and parental relationships like family and marriage. Through these instances that are part of the subject's life and their physical and subjective formation, an ethical and political condition is formulated in order to regulate and maintain certain characteristically heterosexual behaviors and ways of living, altering desire, forms of affectivity, and the freedom of subjects to live in diverse ways. It is important, therefore, that these conditions be discussed and discursively altered within the culture, so that subjects can desire and live their lives according to their own will and, in this way, exercise their freedom and the diversity of their desires in opposition to what power imposes as true, recognizable, or legitimate for life. 2025-12-19T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48442 Title: Duração e Unidade Dinâmica na Construção da Identidade Pessoal Abstract: This dissertation addresses the issue of personal identity, questioning the capacity of traditional models to reconcile the continuity of the subject with the constant flux of changes. The study is based on a critical evaluation of the modern metaphysical tradition—initiated by John Locke and intensified by Derek Parfit — to demonstrate how the search for static criteria of reidentification (physical or psychological) results in the fragmentation of the unity of the self. Initially, the research investigates the logical paradoxes and aporias resulting from the spatialization of time, demonstrating that memory, when considered as mere evidence of past events, fails to maintain identity in the face of qualitative change. In a second moment, Henri Bergson's philosophy is employed to ground an ontological alternative based on the concept of duration (durée). By moving from a metaphysics of substance to a metaphysics of becoming, we affirm that identity is not found in an immutable core, but in a dynamic and processual unity. By redefining memory as the automatic conservation of the past in the present, it is concluded that personality is an uninterrupted continuity of transformations. In this way, identity ceases to be a fixed state to be understood as the very flux of consciousness that forms and maintains itself over time. 2026-02-06T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48437 Title: Vagalumes: A Fotografia como Resistência ao Apagamento Abstract: Ce mémoire étudie la puissance politique et ontologique de la photographie comme instrument de résistance à l'effacement historique, en prenant pour corpus analytique les images capturées par le photographe Luiz Alfredo en 1961, à l'Hôpital Colônia de Barbacena. L'urgence de cette recherche réside dans la capacité de l'image technique à affronter la logique d'exclusion asilaire qui, tel que dénoncé par le reportage « A Sucursal do Inferno » (La Succursale de l'enfer), opérait par l'invisibilité et la déshumanisation. Sous le prisme des théories de Vilém Flusser et de Philippe Dubois, nous soutenons que le photographe a subverti l'automatisme programmé de l'appareil pour réaliser un authentique « acte photographique », engageant une intentionnalité capable de briser le blocage institutionnel. L'analyse démontre que ces clichés transcendent la fonction documentaire ; ils opèrent comme des certificats de présence — le « ça-a-été » barthésien — et se constituent, au sens de Walter Benjamin et de Georges Didi-Huberman, comme des cristaux de temps et des lucioles qui survivent à l'obscurité politique pour illuminer le présent. Enfin, à la lumière de la pensée d'Hannah Arendt et de Paul Ricœur, ce travail conclut que la mémoire n'est pas un simple sauvetage du passé, mais un travail éthique. Les photographies de Barbacena, en restituant la visibilité aux sujets réduits au silence, imposent au spectateur contemporain une responsabilité morale : celle de ne pas permettre que l'oubli vienne redoubler cette violence. 2026-02-12T00:00:00Z
