Story
O que define nossa concepção atual a respeito de um funcionamento mental desejável e socialmente aceitável? A que chamamos de "normal" (e será "normal" uma existência sem nenhuma "loucura")? O que é um "transtorno mental" (mental disorder)? O curso faz um diálogo entre psiquiatria, psicanálise e história da cultura para traçar um histórico dessa relação entre "loucura" e "normalidade", por vezes difusa e contraditória. Entre a idealização romântica e um certo higienismo médico...

Vivemos tempos de excessos. Excesso de informação, de mensagens, de canais de comunicação. Ao mesmo tempo que parece que nos comunicamos muito, não temos tempo para escutar, ler atentamente, perguntar. E isso tem um grande impacto para as relações no trabalho, desde o exercício da liderança até mesmo uma cultura de inovação e colaboração.

Em “Literatura e Sociedade”, o crítico e professor Antônio Candido escreveu sobre a relação de influências e transformações constantes entre autor, obra e público. Ou seja, nenhuma produção artística, sobretudo a literária, é feita ou existe no vácuo: ao contrário, surge em diálogo com seu tempo, reagindo ou exercendo efeitos sobre ele.

"Recordar, Repetir e Elaborar" é o título de um texto de Freud, publicado em 1914, que trata destes três tempos essenciais da análise. Cem anos depois, como se dão estes processos frente às ambivalências do mundo contemporâneo? As experiências da memória, da ressignificação e da capacidade de sonhar (literal e metaforicamente) serão os temas desse curso, com reflexões provocadas por um dos textos seminais da psicanálise. Que tipo de futuro ou de projeto de vida são possíveis de serem construídos quando as próprias estruturas de suas fundações se encontram em xeque?

Historicamente e no senso comum, a mente e o corpo são vistos como entidades distintas, fazendo parecer que a vida mental e a vida do corpo possuem diferentes dinâmicas de funcionamento. Essa visão traz grandes consequências para como enxergamos o ser humano. Acredita-se, por exemplo, que preencher palavras cruzadas previne Alzheimer, ou que depressão é um problema estritamente psicológico.

O termo tekoá se refere, num primeiro momento, a uma aldeia do povo tupi-guarani, mas, para além disso, diz respeito sobretudo ao modo de existir. A ideia se expande para além do território em direção ao que se convencionou chamar de ética na tradição do pensamento ocidental. O curso apresenta as ideias e propostas dessa tradição a respeito da relação humana com a natureza e com si mesma, sobretudo nas dinâmicas de diferenças, de poder, da vida em comum e da memória como catalisadora de conhecimento.

Law schools used to teach students how to think critically, advance logical arguments, and respect opponents. Now, those students cannot tolerate disagreement and reject the validity of the law itself. And yet, rioting Ivy Leaguers are the same people who will hold important government positions, fight constitutional lawsuits, and advise Fortune 500 companies. In Lawless, Ilya Shapiro explains how we got here and what we can do about it. The problem is bigger than radical students and biased faculty—it’s institutional weakness.

Free speech is indispensable on college campuses: allowing varied views and frank exchanges of opinion is a core component of the educational enterprise. But free speech does not mean a free-for-all. The First Amendment prohibits "abridging the freedom of speech," yet laws against perjury or bribery, for example, are still constitutional. In the same way, valuing freedom of speech does not stop a university from regulating speech when doing so is necessary for its educational mission. So where is the dividing line? How can we distinguish reasonable restrictions from impermissible infringement?

Claudine Gay's resignation on January 2, 2024, as Harvard University's first Black president, after only six months on the job, sent shock waves across the world. However, it did not shock anyone closely following her situation. Gay stepped down less than a month after giving disastrous testimony in Congress about her university's laissez-faire approach to protecting Jews on campus from rising expressions of antisemitism that followed Hamas's terrorist attacks on Israel.
