  • Heitor Villa-Lobos and the Parisian Art Scene: How to Become a Brazilian Musician*
    1 Mana vol.1 no.se Rio de Janeiro Oct. 2006 Heitor Villa-Lobos and the Parisian art scene: how to become a Brazilian musician* Paulo Renato Guérios Master’s in Social Anthropology at PPGAS/Museu Nacional/UFRJ, currently a doctoral student at the same institution ABSTRACT This article discusses how the flux of cultural productions between centre and periphery works, taking as an example the field of music production in France and Brazil in the 1920s. The life trajectories of Jean Cocteau, French poet and painter, and Heitor Villa-Lobos, a Brazilian composer, are taken as the main reference points for the discussion. The article concludes that social actors from the periphery tend themselves to accept the opinions and judgements of the social actors from the centre, taking for granted their definitions concerning the criteria that validate their productions. Key words: Heitor Villa-Lobos, Brazilian Music, National Culture, Cultural Flows In July 1923, the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos arrived in Paris as a complete unknown. Some five years had passed since his first large-scale concert in Brazil; Villa-Lobos journeyed to Europe with the intention of publicizing his musical output. His entry into the Parisian art world took place through the group of Brazilian modernist painters and writers he had encountered in 1922, immediately before the Modern Art Week in São Paulo. Following his arrival, the composer was invited to a lunch in the studio of the painter Tarsila do Amaral where he met up with, among others, the poet Sérgio Milliet, the pianist João de Souza Lima, the writer Oswald de Andrade and, among the Parisians, the poet Blaise Cendrars, the musician Erik Satie and the poet and painter Jean Cocteau.

  • Evolutionary Argument Against Naturalism?” International ​ Journal for Philosophy of Religion 69.3 (2010): 193–204
    1 On Plantinga on Belief in Naturalism1 Troy Cross Introduction Naturalism, according to Alvin Plantinga, is the thesis “that there is no such person as God or anything at all like God” (2011b, 435; see also, 2002a, 1; 2011a, vix), and one ​ ​ could be forgiven for thinking that what Plantinga calls his “Evolutionary Argument Against Naturalism”, or “EAAN”, which he has refined and defended for over two decades, is an argument against that thesis (1991, 1993, 2002a, 2002b, 2011a, 2011b). But that would be a mistake. The conclusion of the EAAN is not about the truth of ​ ​ naturalism but about the rationality of believing naturalism to be true: it is that one cannot ​ ​ rationally and reflectively believe that contemporary evolutionary theory is correct about our origins while also believing that neither God nor anything like God exists.2 The difference between truth and rational belief is important here. Consider Moore’s paradoxical sentence: “I don’t believe it’s raining but as a matter of fact it is” (Moore, 209). Nothing prevents that sentence, or others like it, from being true. If you 1 For instructive conversations on this topic I am indebted to John Bang, George Bealer, Mark Bedau, Eliyah Cohen, Bryan Cross, Augie Faller, Emma Handte, Elad Gilo, Nick Gigliotti, John Hare, Jordan Horowitz, Paul Hovda, Alexander Pruss, Margaret Scharle, Derek Schiller, Mackenzie Sullivan, and Carol Voeller.

  • Lockheed Martin to Help NASA Uncover Mysteries of Venus with VERITAS and DAVINCI+ Spacecraft
    Lockheed Martin to Help NASA Uncover Mysteries of Venus with VERITAS and DAVINCI+ Spacecraft June 2, 2021 Lockheed Martin has a major role in NASA's long-anticipated return to Venus DENVER, June 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- To learn more about how terrestrial planets evolve over time, NASA selected the VERITAS and DAVINCI+ missions for its Discovery Program, both bound for Venus. Lockheed Martin will design, build and operate both spacecraft. The missions will launch in 2026 and 2030 respectively, and will combine to study Venus' dense atmosphere, topography and geologic processes in great depth. Both missions will aim to discover how Venus – which may have been the first potentially habitable planet in our solar system – became inhospitable to life. They represent NASA's return to Earth's sister planet after more than three decades. "We're very grateful for this opportunity to work with NASA and the missions' principal investigators to fully understand how rocky planets evolved and what it means for our planet, Earth," said Lisa Callahan, vice president and general manager of Lockheed Martin's Commercial Civil Space business. "Our team who designed these two spacecraft to study Venus in unprecedented detail – and yield answers to its greatest mysteries – is beyond excited!" The operations and science for DAVINCI+ – which stands for Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble Gases, Chemistry and Imaging Plus – will be managed by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. VERITAS – which stands for Venus Emissivity, Radio Science, InSAR, Topography & Spectroscopy – will have its science and operations managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California.

First of all, I would like to take the opportunity to offer deep thanks to my supervisor Prof. Bill Brunson whose wonderful lessons I will never forget, for the kind support, the probing questions, and the helpfulness shown in many occasions. Secondly, I express my gratitude to professors Lars Ekström, Christofer Elgh, and Karin Rehnqvist who, in their composition lessons, were able to instill in me a love for the subjects they taught me. I am also grateful to all the staff of KMH which I interacted with, in particular the professors of the Departments of Composition, Conducting and Music Theory as well as of Folk Music. I also want to express my gratitude to Saverio Santoni whose advises about orchestration I have treasured a lot, as well as to Anna Einarsson for the precious comments about this thesis. I wish to thank the musicians of the KammarensembleN and the director Niklas Tamm who have been the first to perform in concert my composition “The Integrated Consciousness”. Last but not least, I would like to thank all the students I met at the KMH Royal College of Music of Stockholm, a list that would be much too long to include here, for providing a stimulating and fun environment in which to learn and grow.
