The Quest recounts the adventures of the knights of the Round Table to seek to rediscover the Holy Grail, the vessel used by Christ at the Last Supper and with which Joseph of Arimathea had collected the sacred blood poured out by the Messiah on the cross. The novel presents Christian behavioral models for men and women, denoting the strong Christian influence present in the narrative. The women, whose representations are associated with the imaginary of Eve, Mary or even with ambiguous behavior, are sources of discord or helpers of the knights. We seek to broaden our view of these female characters to understand, from the feminine condition and its protection, the social and cultural elements that influence the conception of being a woman in the Middle Ages. Also, we seek to annalyse the masculine fears, their speeches of legitimation or not of spaces of female performance in order to understand the medieval woman. Comparisons with Medieval Portugal and its historical characters enabled us to recognize the plurality and the importance of the female condition in society, its constructions and the fears they have aroused in the past, as well as the connection of these representations with the present. 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/6344 Título: Avaliação de índices ecológicos de peixes capturados em curral de pesca na Amazônia Oriental, Brasil Abstact: This study evaluated the diversity and abundance of the ichthyofauna captured by artisanal fish corrals in Mangue Seco, Raposa (Maranhão), considering seasonality (dry and rainy seasons of 2024/2025). A total of 47 species (2,545 individuals) were recorded, with richness and abundance significantly higher during the dry season—strongly correlated with higher salinity and conductivity. The catch included threatened species (such as *Aetobatus narinari*, Endangered) and data-deficient species, highlighting fishing pressure on sensitive populations. Ecological indices revealed a moderately diverse community with low dominance. The results emphasize the decisive influence of seasonal environmental factors on community structure and the need to incorporate ecological monitoring into the sustainable management of this traditional fishery. 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/6343 Título: Análise da robótica educacional como instrumento pedagógico no desenvolvimento escolar do ensino fundamental da rede pública Abstact: The present research deals with the analysis of educational robotics as a pedagogical tool in the school development of 5th-grade students in the public school system of Santa Rita-MA. It concerns a study project on the combination of educational robotics and its contribution to Mathematical Logical thinking allied with technology in the early grades of elementary education. Its objectives are to compare traditional methods of teaching mathematics with active methodologies that use educational robotics; stimulate students' interest in the proposal; analyze the problem-solving ability of the presented problems; evaluate students' cognitive development focused on enhanced mathematics learning with the support of robotics kits, and identify which Computational Thinking skills (pattern recognition, decomposition, algorithms, and abstraction) are related to mathematical logic. The investigation has a practical and exploratory nature, with a qualitative and quantitative approach, of an applied nature, using procedures such as case studies and action research, through the conduct of classes, workshops, and the application of evaluative questionnaires in the initial and final phases of the research. Based on the results and findings, it was observed through the case study that educational robotics not only stimulates and interests children in mathematics but also significantly improves academic performance in that area of knowledge. However, it was not possible to effectively compare traditional methods of teaching mathematics with active methodologies that use educational robotics. Therefore, the research concludes that educational robotics, although it promotes various benefits as a practical teaching methodology, requires resources such as collaborative work, a multidisciplinary team, and adequate funding to have effective relevance 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.uema.br/jspui/handle/123456789/6337 Título: Impactos ambientais da indústria de cerâmica vermelha em Itapecuru- Mirim/MA Abstact: Minerals play an essential role in humanity, and the mining industry is recognized as a driver of economic development because minerals are indispensable natural resources that provide raw materials for various industries. Clay, since ancient civilizations such as Mesopotamia, Egypt, and the Middle East to Roman and Islamic cultures, is the primary mineral in the production of red ceramics. Ceramic products made from clay, such as bricks and tiles, are widely used today due to their quality and durability. Clay extraction, often carried out with backhoes, alters the landscape where it occurs, causing various environmental impacts. In Brazil, the red ceramic industry is traditional and produces approximately 63.6 billion pieces annually, with a consumption of around 140 megatons of clay. In the municipality of Itapecuru-Mirim/MA, 21 companies stand out in mining and red ceramic production, with millions of monthly pieces, being one of the largest producers in the state. The research aims to analyze the red ceramic industry in the municipality, aiming for a balance between the development of economic activity and the maintenance of natural resources, and to propose measures to mitigate related impacts, based on the relationship established from the Geosystem and the mapping carried out, as well as field activities. It was found that the impacts include deforestation without reforestation, degradation of springs, degradation of drainage by artificial lakes, degradation of water bodies and permanent preservation areas, potential for the development of respiratory diseases, corruption, and lack of oversight. There is also a history of the appropriation of public lands, underreporting of the quantity produced to pay fewer compensation taxes, continuous deforestation in other areas not previously delimited, the disuse of filters in chimneys, and the illegal use of electricity. A scenario of degradation was observed that significantly interferes with the dynamics of the natural environment of the locality in question, requiring the strengthening of public oversight bodies and environmental management in companies 2024-02-23T00:00:00Z
