"Utopia socialista" o "società post-secolare"? Percorsi francofortesi
2017
In this paper I will compare A. Honneth’s neo-socialist project with J. Habermas’ proposal of a post-secular society. Since both of these approaches are aimed to contrast with neoliberal theories, I will give explanation of my preference for Habermas’. I will do that by considering the relationship between the concepts of utopia, liberty and society.
La religione laica di John Dewey e di Aldo Capitini
2021
The contribution proposes an analysis on a subject that, today, appears more controversial than ever and full of ideas for reflection for the pedagogical world: the religion. This will be done through a reference to the theoretical contribution of John Dewey, who, presenting the terminology difference between the word "religion" and "religiousness", has disseminated the idea of a secular religion, whose values, transcending the boundaries of multiple religious confessions, can be fulfilled by all, contributing to the realization of democratic society. The deweyan approach will be compared to that of Aldo Capitini who, in a similar way to the American thinker, has promoted a form of secular …
Jeszcze o kasacie klasztoru kanoników regularnych p.w. św. Mikołaja w Kaliszu
2020
W 1810 r. doszło do kasaty klasztoru kanoników regularnych p.w. św. Mikołaja w Kaliszu. W Archiwum Diecezjalnym we Włocławku zachował się protokół sekularyzacyjny, przedstawiający stan kościoła, zabudowań klasztornych, wyposażenie kościoła oraz zakrystii. W protokole znajduje się też spis dochodów klasztoru, głownie fundacji mszalnych z miejscowości położonych w pobliskich powiatach oraz z domów znajdujących się w Kaliszu. Z przedstawionego stanu majątkowego wynika, że sytuacja klasztoru była stabilna, co oznacza, że likwidacja konwentu kaliskiego była nieuzasadniona i niezrozumiała.
International Scientific Conference "Socio-Political and Religious Ideas and Movements in the 20th-21st Centuries", Latvia, Riga, 4-5 October 2018 : …
2018
The conference facilitated the exchange of ideas and the results of the latest studies on the reciprocity and significance of religious and socially political ideas (ideologies) in contemporary society. In the modern-day ever-changing political situation, an increasing danger to the safety and stability of society is caused by the manipulations of the seemingly traditional conceptions of ethical, religious and cultural values evident in the public discourse and media space. Under the impact of global processes, social anxiety and ethical disorientation facilitate a dangerous trend to trust the populist ideologies and quasi-religious ideas, as well as increase the level of radicalisation of …
El «Poema del otoño», de Rubén Darío, consolación de la poesía
2017
El trabajo insiste en el carácter fundacional de la obra de Darío en la poesía hispana debido, entre otras razones, a su poética especialmente dialogante. Poesía humanamente docta y erudita, el «Poema del otoño» pretende otorgar consuelo ante la idea de la muerte. En un contexto secularizado, Darío busca dar cuerpo a un nuevo absoluto, un arte que venza tiempo y espacio. La consolatio asume el tópico del carpe diem, pues el goce de la carne, como la contemplación de la belleza del mundo, como el placer del canto, no solo son experiencias sensibles, sino también simbólicas, que permiten intuir o recordar el orden íntegro y armónico del universo. This work focuses in the foundational role of …
Schmeller, Johann Andreas (1785–1852)
2006
The Bavarian J. A. Schmeller hoped that the Swiss educational reformer Pestalozzi would appoint him as a teacher. When this failed, he joined the Swiss military in Spanish services carrying out Pestalozzi's principles at military schools by teaching languages in Tarragona and Madrid, and, finally, at a private teaching institute in Basle. He was inspired by the Swiss dialect dictionary when he decided to make a Bavarian dialect dictionary and, based on this, a Bavarian dialect grammar. This was the beginning of German scientific dialectology. He was appointed member of the Bavarian Academy of Science and professor at Munich university. As curator of the Royal Court and State Library (1829) …
Fundamental movement skills in adolescents : secular trends from 2003 to 2010 and associations with physical activity and BMI
2018
The aim of this study was to examine the secular trends in fundamental movement skills (FMS) among 15- to 16-year-old adolescents at 2 assessment points scheduled in 2003 and 2010 and to investigate the associations between FMS, physical activity (PA), and body mass index (BMI). In 2003, self-reported PA, weight and height, and objective FMS scores were collected from 2390 students, and in 2010, similar data were generated from a second sample of 1346 students. FMS were assessed during both assessment phases using 3 identical objective FMS tests that were figure 8 dribbling, jumping laterally, and coordination track tests. This study indicated that the sum index of FMS did not change among …
International Trends in Adolescent Screen-Time Behaviors From 2002 to 2010
2016
Abstract Purpose Engaging in prolonged screen-time behaviors (STBs) is detrimental for health. The objective of the present analyses was to examine temporal trends in TV viewing and computer use among adolescents across 30 countries. Methods Data were derived from the cross-national Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study. Data on TV viewing and computer use for gaming and nongaming purposes were collected in 2002 (n = 139,725 [51.4% girls]), 2006 (n = 149,251 [51.3% girls]), and 2010 (n = 154,845 [51.2% girls]). The temporal trends in TV viewing and computer use were each tested for all countries combined and for each individual country by sex-specific univariate analysis of varianc…
Trends in self-reported sleep problems, tiredness and related school performance among Finnish adolescents from 1984 to 2011
2014
The aim of this study was to investigate long-term trends in insomnia symptoms, tiredness and school performance among Finnish adolescents. A time-series from 1984 to 2011 was analysed from two large-scale survey studies, the Finnish School Health Promotion Study and the Health Behavior in School-Aged Children study. A total of 1,136,583 adolescents aged 11-18 years answered a standardized questionnaire assessing frequency of insomnia symptoms, tiredness and school performance. A clear approximately twofold increasing trend in insomnia symptoms and tiredness was found from the mid-1990s to the end of the 2000s. The increase was evident in all participating age groups and in both genders. Af…
Cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness in young adult Finnish men between 2003 and 2015
2020
Introduction Physical fitness is strongly related to health and may offer valuable information about public health. We investigated trends in physical fitness, leisure-time physical activity (LTPA), and anthropometry of young healthy adult Finnish men in representative population-based samples between 2003 and 2015. Methods Three independent cross-sectional samples of 18- to 35-year-old Finnish men were assessed in 2003 (n = 889), 2008 (n = 803), and 2015 (n = 690). Cardiorespiratory (VO(2)max) and muscular fitness (1-minute sit-ups and push-ups), body mass, and height were measured. Self-reported LTPA was assessed. Results After adjusting for age, education, and smoking, cardiorespiratory …
