    Literatura

    Para exprimir seu pensamento, este escritor teve de forjar uma língua que é só dele. O leitor que aborda pela primeira vez um de seus livros fica desconcertado com a obscuridade dessa língua. Mas ao mesmo tempo é subjugado, e enfeitiçado, por essa maneira inteiramente nova de dizer as coisas. E pouco a pouco tudo começa a adquirir um sentido, um sentido múltiplo, ambíguo, numa palavra, poético. Seu vocabulário é inteiramente renovado pela prática sistemática do neologismo. Todos os recursos da fonética são explorados.

    (Paul Teyssier. Dicionário de literatura brasileira, 2003. Adaptado.)

                                    Words that define the presente


    At a time when the world is changing more quickly than ever before, we need a new vocabulary to help us grasp what’s happening.

          Catfishing. This word would make more sense if it referred to fishing for cats, but in fact, it refers to people who construct false identities online. Whether out of boredom, loneliness or malice, they lure other people into continued messaging correspondence, thereby building false relationships with them (the apparent source of the term “catfish” is a 2010 documentary called Catfish, whose verity, ironically enough, has been questioned).

          There are two ways of looking at this: 1) The internet/ cyberspace is wonderful, because it gives people the freedom to augment or totally change their identities, and this is a marvellous new dawn for human expression, a new step in human evolution. 2) Nah, it’s a false dawn, because the internet is essentially a libertarian arena, and, as such, an amoral one (lots of “freedoms” but with no attendant social obligations); it is a new jungle where we must watch our backs and struggle for survival, surely a backward step in evolution. I lean toward the latter.

                                      Why so few nurses are men


                       Imagem da questão de Inglês, UNIFESP 2018, Interpretação de texto | Reading comprehension

          Ask health professionals in any country what the biggest problem in their health-care system is and one of the most common answers is the shortage of nurses. In ageing rich countries, demand for nursing care is becoming increasingly insatiable. Britain’s National Health Service, for example, has 40,000-odd nurse vacancies. Poor countries struggle with the emigration of nurses for greener pastures. One obvious solution seems neglected: recruit more men. Typically, just 5-10% of nurses registered in a given country are men. Why so few?

          Views of nursing as a “woman’s job” have deep roots. Florence Nightingale, who established the principles of modern nursing in the 1860s, insisted that men’s “hard and horny” hands were “not fitted to touch, bathe and dress wounded limbs”. In Britain the Royal College of Nursing, the profession’s union, did not even admit men as members until 1960. Some nursing schools in America started admitting men only in 1982, after a Supreme Court ruling forced them to. Senior nurse titles such as “sister” (a ward manager) and “matron” (which in some countries is used for men as well) do not help matters. Unsurprisingly, some older people do not even know that men can be nurses too. Male nurses often encounter patients who assume they are doctors.

          Another problem is that beliefs about what a nursing job entails are often outdated – in ways that may be particularly off-putting for men. In films, nurses are commonly portrayed as the helpers of heroic male doctors. In fact, nurses do most of their work independently and are the first responders to patients in crisis. To dispel myths, nurse-recruitment campaigns display nursing as a professional job with career progression, specialisms like anaesthetics, cardiology or emergency care, and use for skills related to technology, innovation and leadership. However, attracting men without playing to gender stereotypes can be tricky. “Are you man enough to be a nurse?”, the slogan of an American campaign, was involved in controversy.

          Nursing is not a career many boys aspire to, or are encouraged to consider. Only two-fifths of British parents say they would be proud if their son became a nurse. Because of all this, men who go into nursing are usually already closely familiar with the job. Some are following in the career footsteps of their mothers. Others decide that the job would suit them after they see a male nurse care for a relative or they themselves get care from a male nurse when hospitalised. Although many gender stereotypes about jobs and caring have crumbled, nursing has, so far, remained unaffected.

                                      Why so few nurses are men

          Ask health professionals in any country what the biggest problem in their health-care system is and one of the most common answers is the shortage of nurses. In ageing rich countries, demand for nursing care is becoming increasingly insatiable. Britain’s National Health Service, for example, has 40,000-odd nurse vacancies. Poor countries struggle with the emigration of nurses for greener pastures. One obvious solution seems neglected: recruit more men. Typically, just 5-10% of nurses registered in a given country are men. Why so few?

          Views of nursing as a “woman’s job” have deep roots. Florence Nightingale, who established the principles of modern nursing in the 1860s, insisted that men’s “hard and horny” hands were “not fitted to touch, bathe and dress wounded limbs”. In Britain the Royal College of Nursing, the profession’s union, did not even admit men as members until 1960. Some nursing schools in America started admitting men only in 1982, after a Supreme Court ruling forced them to. Senior nurse titles such as “sister” (a ward manager) and “matron” (which in some countries is used for men as well) do not help matters. Unsurprisingly, some older people do not even know that men can be nurses too. Male nurses often encounter patients who assume they are doctors.

          Another problem is that beliefs about what a nursing job entails are often outdated – in ways that may be particularly off-putting for men. In films, nurses are commonly portrayed as the helpers of heroic male doctors. In fact, nurses do most of their work independently and are the first responders to patients in crisis. To dispel myths, nurse-recruitment campaigns display nursing as a professional job with career progression, specialisms like anaesthetics, cardiology or emergency care, and use for skills related to technology, innovation and leadership. However, attracting men without playing to gender stereotypes can be tricky. “Are you man enough to be a nurse?”, the slogan of an American campaign, was involved in controversy.

          Nursing is not a career many boys aspire to, or are encouraged to consider. Only two-fifths of British parents say they would be proud if their son became a nurse. Because of all this, men who go into nursing are usually already closely familiar with the job. Some are following in the career footsteps of their mothers. Others decide that the job would suit them after they see a male nurse care for a relative or they themselves get care from a male nurse when hospitalised. Although many gender stereotypes about jobs and caring have crumbled, nursing has, so far, remained unaffected.

    Para responder à questão, leia o trecho do livro O homem cordial, de Sérgio Buarque de Holanda.

       Já se disse, numa expressão feliz, que a contribuição brasileira para a civilização será de cordialidade — daremos ao mundo o “homem cordial”. A lhaneza1 no trato, a hospitalidade, a generosidade, virtudes tão gabadas por estrangeiros que nos visitam, representam, com efeito, um traço definido do caráter brasileiro, na medida, ao menos, em que permanece ativa e fecunda a influência ancestral dos padrões de convívio humano, informados no meio rural e patriarcal. Seria engano supor que essas virtudes possam significar “boas maneiras”, civilidade. São antes de tudo expressões legítimas de um fundo emotivo extremamente rico e transbordante. Na civilidade há qualquer coisa de coercitivo — ela pode exprimir-se em mandamentos e em sentenças. Entre os japoneses, onde, como se sabe, a polidez envolve os aspectos mais ordinários do convívio social, chega a ponto de confundir-se, por vezes, com a reverência religiosa. Já houve quem notasse este fato significativo, de que as formas exteriores de veneração à divindade, no cerimonial xintoísta, não diferem essencialmente das maneiras sociais de demonstrar respeito.
       Nenhum povo está mais distante dessa noção ritualista da vida do que o brasileiro. Nossa forma ordinária de convívio social é, no fundo, justamente o contrário da polidez. Ela pode iludir na aparência — e isso se explica pelo fato de a atitude polida consistir precisamente em uma espécie de mímica deliberada de manifestações que são espontâneas no “homem cordial”: é a forma natural e viva que se converteu em fórmula. Além disso a polidez é, de algum modo, organização de defesa ante a sociedade. Detém-se na parte exterior, epidérmica do indivíduo, podendo mesmo servir, quando necessário, de peça de resistência. Equivale a um disfarce que permitirá a cada qual preservar intatas sua sensibilidade e suas emoções.
       Por meio de semelhante padronização das formas exteriores da cordialidade, que não precisam ser legítimas para se manifestarem, revela-se um decisivo triunfo do espírito sobre a vida. Armado dessa máscara, o indivíduo consegue manter sua supremacia ante o social. E, efetivamente, a polidez implica uma presença contínua e soberana do indivíduo.
        No “homem cordial”, a vida em sociedade é, de certo modo, uma verdadeira libertação do pavor que ele sente em viver consigo mesmo, em apoiar-se sobre si próprio em todas as circunstâncias da existência. Sua maneira de expansão para com os outros reduz o indivíduo, cada vez mais, à parcela social, periférica, que no brasileiro — como bom americano — tende a ser a que mais importa. Ela é antes um viver nos outros.
