Mirrors, in the plural, are spread everywhere: in the decorations of private spaces such as bathrooms, bedrooms, closets and in public spaces, restaurants, government offices, shops, in the office of our dentist, in elevators, malls. They are small and may be carried inside women’s purses. They are large and can occupy the entire facade of a building. Mirrors are many, of all shapes and sizes and with different functions. Mirrors capture images from galaxies, reflect faces, eyes, lips, the entire body, and through them we can fix our makeup, straighten the tie, examine the combination of clothes, comb our hair, see the oncoming car to our back, the stubble, the extra pounds, the marks of time on our face.
What about the mirror in the singular? What is the mirror? We view mirrors (still in the plural) in every corner: they are objects are among the countless objects composing the world continuum and we see them as we see chairs, shoes, desks, cars, other people. But we do not see the mirror, we see in the mirror or through the looking glass. In the mirror (in the singular), we only see one thing: ourselves. This should not be something dramatic, because we are always viewing ourselves: we see our hands, our legs, our belly, our genitals; we inspect our skin and so on. We would say that we see our body all the time. However, when we look directly at ourselves, without the interposition of mirrors, what we see is a fragmented body with several gaps (we do not see, for example, our back and head), but above all, we see a body without a face, without depth, without identity. When we look directly into the mirror we do not see a mirror, but our face, our eyes; moreover, other branch parts of our body (hands, legs, belly, genitals) gain depth and unity, they come to life.

Participaram do estudo 261 gestantes selecionadas através de amostragem por acessibilidade em quatro maternidades públicas. As gestantes responderam individualmente uma ficha de dados sociodemográficos, a Escala de Apego Materno-Fetal e o SRQ-20. A análise de regressão revelou que o número de filhos (4%) e a saúde mental materna (4,2%) explicaram parte da variância no apego materno-fetal. A escolaridade da mãe e do pai não esteve associada a essa variável. O modelo de regressão múltipla considerando os quatro fatores analisados, explicou 8,2% da variância nos escores de apego materno-fetal. Discutem-se as implicações dessas variáveis na formação do vínculo da mãe com o bebê durante a gestação.

From this assumption, we will argue that literature, as an exercise of imagination, helps us understand and evaluate our own emotions, what is essential for establishing our uniqueness, distinguishing ourselves from others. In literature we can learn about emotions and we can understand our own feelings. Literature plays an important role in cultural experience, triggering emotional responses.

Sixty-five Brazilian mothers provided socio-demographic information and rated their preschool children's internalising behaviour. Children attributed emotions to a protagonist in a story facing maternal discipline. Analysis of covariance showed that children

The question about the possibility of developing a literate standard in the orality of illiterate adults will be discussed from two angles: a) first,
we will argue the extent to which engaging in everyday activities, without completing the formal cycles of schooling, allowed the study’s illiterate participants to develop a standard that we assume as literate in its orality; b) then, we will analyze how the level of abstraction in the concepts with scientific structure formulated by illiterate participants differ from that presented by literate participants.
