A presente pesquisa analisa a revolução tecnológica à luz do ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, bem como à luz da legislação internacional. Desde o começo da pesquisa, verifica-se que a informática foi desenvolvida pelo homem para o homem, com intuito de facilitar as tarefas diárias em âmbito comercial, pessoal e principalmente na globalização das notícias em face da inovadora concepção de Cidadão do Mundo. Aborda-se também os ensinamentos de Peter Härbele acerca da supralegalidade dos tratados internacionais com ênfase no Estado Constitucional Cooperativo. Analisa-se também a questão da eficácia da norma jurídica em face da legislação brasileira, que se demonstra in...
Varius is the nomen of the Roman emperor misnamed Elagabalus or Heliogabalus. These are names of the Syrian sun god Elagabal, whose high priest Varius was while emperor. There is no evidence that he was ever so called when alive. Thus named, his posthumous legendary or mythical avatar thrives, in academic prose and popular imagination, as a Semitic monster of cruelty, depravity, fanaticism, mockery and extravagance. Recently, this monster has metamorphosed into an anarchist saint and martyr of gay liberation. This volume explores the historical individual behind Elagabalus and Heliogabalus. Varius was probably born AD 204 in Rome, to Syro-Roman parents linked to the Severan dynasty, and brou...
Heliogabalus and Elagabalus are names given since late antiquity to the mythical or legendary avatar of Varius Avitus Bassianus. Varius was Roman emperor AD 218–222, ruling as Marcus Aurelius Antoninus. He was simultaneously High Priest of the Syrian sun god Elagabal. Heliogabalus and Elagabalus, names derived from Elagabal, are often used as misnomers for Varius himself, but more properly designate his avatar, who is far better known than Varius. The Varian avatar, under these and other names, survives and thrives in historiography, as well as in more avowedly creative literature, music, dance, the visual arts, and popular culture. This book, the third in Varian Studies, is partly based on the Varian Symposium, held in Cambridge in 2005. It contains studies of the historical Varius, of some of his courtiers, of his god Elagabal, and of his avatar, Heliogabalus or Elagabalus.
O terceiro volume de Redenção e Escatologia contém a investigação realizada no âmbito de um projeto interdisciplinar sobre os temas da salvação do homem e da consumação do mundo na cultura portuguesa da contemporaneidade. A reflexão do terceiro tomo destaca o inconformismo dos nossos escritores com a ordem social e religiosa de uma época de antagonismo e conflito entre a fé e a ciência, a espiritualidade e a racionalidade, que inclui a denúncia dos males morais da Igreja e do poder político e inclui a justificação pelas opções do monoteísmo cristão, do politeísmo pagão, do ateísmo, do deísmo, do agnosticismo ou do panteísmo. Apresenta a importância da linguagem poética na experiência da espiritualidade, como meio adequado para dizer a relação do homem com Deus, que já não surge de modo objetivo e evidente, sob as formas dogmáticas de fideísmo ou sob as formas míticas e teosóficas de absoluta imanência, mas apenas se vislumbra na ausência mistérica de uma silenciosa presença.

The first study to subject the life and reign of the so-called Emperor Elagabalus to a thorough historical investigation.
Elagabal is the name of the Syrian sun god whose high priest Varius was, at the same time as Roman emperor, AD 218–222. Because of this connexion, Varius was misnamed Heliogabalus or Elagabalus long after his death. Second in the series Varian Studies, this book discusses Elagabal’s architectural and sculptural artefacts in Rome. These are represented by the Palatine site of the Varian Temple of Elagabal in Rome, and by relief sculpture on column capitals found in the Roman Forum, showing Elagabal with other deities, in a scene of sacrifice here reconstructed as Elagabal’s Idyll. The Varian Temple of Elagabal in Rome confirms on topographical grounds an hypothesis regarding the site of that temple on the Palatine, concurring with current archaeological opinion based on other grounds. It also shows that the site in question has definite astronomical implications. Elagabal’s Idyll gives a full account of scholarship concerning the three column capitals and the debate about their origin and function. It then goes on to analyse the iconography of one of them in order to explore the cosmology, theology and ritual of the cult of Elagabal.

Os componentes da banda, publicado pela primeira vez em 1984, é mais uma obra onde Adélia Prado mergulha profundamente em seu mundo, retratando a vida numa cidade do interior de Minas Gerais. Com uma escrita que alterna entre a comoção e a indignação, Adélia transforma o cotidiano em música através de seu lirismo inconfundível. A autora captura com paixão e universalidade as nuances da vida interiorana, destacando a beleza e os desafios do dia a dia. "Eu só tenho o cotidiano e meu sentimento dele", diz Adélia, refletindo sobre a universalidade da experiência humana, independentemente do lugar. Em Os Componentes da Banda, o ordinário se torna extraordinário, e o pequeno se revela grandioso, tudo sob a lente poética de uma das maiores vozes da literatura brasileira.
