Nb. Excelente entrevista e 'lecture' da Reitora da UCP

Nb1. Isabel Capeloa Gil — teórica da cultura, formada em Línguas e Literaturas Modernas, doutorada em Estudos Alemães, humanista, apaixonada por Hoffmannsthal, leitora dos gregos antigos — gosta do que faz, mas gostaria de fazer outras coisas. Como Física. 

Nb2. "Os meus amigos físicos dizem que aquilo de que gosto é da Filosofa da Física. E é também, mas há uma parte quantitativa e matemática que gostaria muito de fazer." 

Filosofia da Fsica... Tomei nota, vou investir (alem de http://www.dfis.ubi.pt/~pmoniz/lectUBIHofS.html; http://www.dfis.ubi.pt/~pmoniz/ResCa.html; http://www.dfis.ubi.pt/~pmoniz/PhysPo.html)


Nb3. "Há um texto de uma autora alemã Luise Rinser (1911-2002), Bruder Feuer, sobre S. Francisco de Assis e sobre o desafio na relação com a natureza, o respeito pelo outro através da natureza".

The end of summer. Autumn (early) will be coming...

What??????????

Just got a tinny wee bit worried on that paragraph about nuclear physics....

Autumn. Early. Most likely
