چکیده
This article, the result of a research project presented as a Master’s degree dissertation in the graduate program of “Teaching of Health Education” at UNIFESP, seeks to highlight the pertinence of analyzing epilepsy and especially, the paradoxical experience of the epileptic individual through literary narrative. Using as its object the novel, The Idiot, by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, it seeks to discuss the relationship between epilepsy and the mystic experience, bearing in mind the context of the scientific and humanistic perspectives of the 19 century and today.

متن کاملMystique is a new insulin-like growth factor-I-regulated PDZ-LIM domain protein that promotes cell attachment and migration and suppresses Anchorage-independent growth.
By comparing differential gene expression in the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-IR null cell fibroblast cell line (R- cells) with cells overexpressing the IGF-IR (R+ cells), we identified the Mystique gene expressed as alternatively spliced variants. The human homologue of Mystique is located on chromosome 8p21.2 and encodes a PDZ LIM domain protein (PDLIM2). GFP-Mystique was colocalized at c...
متن کاملLa Mistica Tra Etica E Politica / Mystique: between Ethics and Politics
We attempt in this paper to tie together several basic insights of praxeology, and several that are not at all that basic. These include the following: that gains from exchange are subjective; that this applies to profits and interest; that credit transactions can occur under barter; that interest arises from time preference even under a pure time preference theory of interest; and that product...
متن کاملPresence as Performance: the mystique of digital participation

Our Focus, Locus and Sensus (FLS) model of experience suggests that digital media that have this effect also generate a strong sense of presence (Waterworth and Waterworth, 200...
