The shoulder is a very complex joint, considered the most mobile in the entire human body and to maintain the normal biomechanics of the joint it is necessary that all structures are in sync. If these structures show alterations, the joint complex will be the target of numerous conditions, including the Impact Syndrome (IOI). This, in turn, is characterized by mechanical impaction or compression of certain structures, which may present inflammation, degeneration in the tendons, as is the case with tendinopathy, and changes in the joint capsule, as is the case with Adhesive Capsulitis. For this purpose, an equipment capable of promoting myofascial release synergistically with the action of the laser was developed, with the objective of comparing the isolated actions of photobiomodulation and the performance of the myofascial release technique, in relation to the conjugated action of the same, analyzing possible changes between the therapies used in relation to pain and changes in the condition of carrying out the movements, in the inflammatory and degenerative processes using respectively the goniometric measurement of the joint angles, the visual analogue scale and the Questionnaire of Dysfunctions of the Arm, Shoulder and hand. According to the results obtained, the interventions were able to induce a positive effect on the symptoms of the pathologies, but the combined interventions resulted in a greater significant difference, thus reducing the treatment time to 35 days, and after 60 days of the evolution of the disease. treatment, the combined action made it possible to maintain the patient's improvement, thus allowing a full restoration of movements and absence of pain. It is concluded, therefore, that the combined interventions resulted in a greater significant difference and the maintenance of the patient's improvement, both in relation to pain and limitation of movements, and can be used as an alternative non-pharmacological treatment, promoting well-being. and quality of life for the patient.

The false sense of security that the users have regarding their personal data makes them even more vulnerable to several types of fraud, from leaks to its commercialization. In addition, questions regarding privacy arise as a broad concept inside and outside technology as time goes by. With that in mind, laws have been created for data protection, to ensure user’s privacy. Thus, this study is dedicated to discuss data privacy, focusing on digital games and environments and analyzing the role played by data protection laws in the security of each individual’s personal data towards companies and organizations. Here, the national academic scope of this subject will be explored. From this perspective, the following research problem is incited: Does the data provided to companies while their services are being used remain, in fact, private? Focusing on this research problem, the aim of this study is to identify how data privacy work, from the Librarianship and Information Science perspective. For the investigative purpose, this study is a theoretical research classified as qualitative investigation and, regarding its procedures, it is a bibliographical research. Initially, theoretical research was carried out to substantiate the aspects of the current legislation, data privacy and security. As a result, the bibliometric analysis revealed that research about data privacy has increased over the years, however, more studies are needed regarding the data privacy of digital games and environments.

This study details the diffusion of critical ideas about fatness present in Fat Activism and Fat Studies in three main spaces: academic world, internet and markets. In order to understand how the narrative that fights fatphobia circulates through these spaces, the concepts of social space, everyday activism, and the process of incorporating the critique of social movements in the capitalist system are articulated in the academic field of critical studies of fat, in the social movement that fights fatphobia on the internet and in the collective narrative about fat in market spheres. Based on the premises of Economic Sociology, the mapping of the international context of the field of critical fat studies contextualizes Brazilian studies and identifies activism as part of the Fat Studies habitus; Brazilian activism on the social network Instagram shows itself as a type of everyday activism that targets culture and employs individualized actions that claim a fat identity as a form of resistance to the discriminatory narratives of fat; and finally, the relationship between companies and activists identifies the process of appropriation of activist discourses by capitalism as the gateway to the movement against fatphobia in the concept of organizational diversity, a dynamic that contributes to the legitimization of fatphobia as discrimination and shows progress in the transformation of the collective narrative of fat sought by the Fat Activism social movement and by Fat Studies. The context of critical fat studies was chosen given the emergence of addressing the gap between scientific evidence and misconceptions in the collective narrative about fat that supports weight stigma, narrative inconsistent with modern scientific knowledge that is just as harmful as racial and gender discrimination. This research offers contributions to the social movement when it highlights the social structure and the game that takes place between society and the narratives of fat, as well as for the critical academic space on fat, given the nascent stage of the Brazilian space that needs research interdisciplinary approaches that bring it closer to the international context and to the field of organizational research by highlighting the dynamics of appropriation of criticism by companies and its relationship with the concept of organizational diversity.

Like any environmental emergency, the contamination of water bodies requires a quick and effective response to mitigate or even prevent damage to the environment, and those responsible for planning and executing the response actions to contamination must have clarity in their duties and objectives. Based on the Response Protocol Toolbox, of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency - USEPA, this study aimed to carry out a systematic review of the literature on protocols and procedures for response to water contamination, using the Systematic Search Flow - SSF method. By gathering the results presented, this research contributed to a better understanding of the theme, and succeeded in presenting information and guidelines adaptable to the structuring of an Environmental Contamination Response Guide - ECRG, which will provide a methodical approach to the steps to be performed by the response teams that act in the occurrences of water contamination. By reading and analyzing twenty-eight found and selected full texts, it was possible to understand the context of the RPTB - USEPA publication, the main areas of study: safety and vulnerability of water distribution systems; contaminant detection and source identification; sampling and analytical approaches; response protocols.

Multicomponent and/or high entropy alloys (HEAs) are a new class of materials that do not have a main element and are instead composed of concentrated solid solutions. Several compositions with interesting mechanical and functional properties have been found, in the literature special focus is given to multicomponent alloys composed of 3d transition metals from the periodic table. Among these alloys, several CrCoNi compositions stand out for their excellent strength, ductility and corrosion resistance. The main focus of the development of these alloys was the pursuit for compositions that form face centered cubic structures (FCC), however some studies indicate that duplex alloys, also composed of a body center cubic phase (BCC) have excellent mechanical properties. In this project will be presented thermodynamic calculations that indicate compositions from the CrCoNi system as promising for the formation of a duplex structure. Here, the production one composition will be proposed in order to understand the feasibility of manufacturing CFC + CCC duplex alloys in the CrCoNi system. This composition is the alloy Cr51,5Ni33,5Co15. It will be studied in the homogenized and as-cast conditions by optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Vickers microhardness and a preliminary cold rolling test. The results of this work will contribute to evaluate the production potential and mechanical properties of duplex alloys in the CrCoNi system.

This paper reports a professional experience with students from the final years of elementary school who were part of a study group in which questions from previous OBMEP tests were used for the teaching and learning of mathematics, through the use of the problem-solving methodology proposed by POLYA (2006) and ONUCHIC (2012), with remote encounters, due to the pandemic period of COVID-19 and face-to-face. After the return of classes in the school units, a joint work was developed between teachers and students from 6th grade to 9th grade in order to rescue the teaching of mathematics and prepare students for the realization of OBMEP 2021. It had an analytical and methodical view at the development of activities from the elaboration of lists in which the selected questions were allusive to the skills of BNCC and the Paulista Curriculum, according to the school time in which the students were enrolled. This work presents the improvement in the personal and social performances of students in the school and family environments, considering that the family was a fundamental agent in the development and constancy of the project and the evolution in the group's personal and collective studies and achievements.

Let M m be a closed and smooth m-dimensional manifold, and T : M m → M m a smooth involution, that is, a period 2 diffeomorphism defined on M m . It is well known the fact that the fixed point set of T , F = {x ∈ M m |T (x) = x}, is a finite and disjoint union of closed smooth submanifolds, whose dimensions can vary from 0 to m. We write F = ∪ni=0 F i , n ≤ m, where F i denotes the disjoint union of the i-dimensional components of F. The famous Five Halves Theorem of J. Boardman assures that, if the pair (M m , T ) does not bound equivariantly, then we have m ≤ 52 n, and with this level of generality, this bound is best possible. This result motivated P. Pergher to introduce, in the literature, the following type of question: is it possible to improve the Boardman’s bound by imposing the omission of some dimensions of F? In this work, our first objective is obtaining a result of this type, specifically the case where F has the form F n ∪ F j , 0 ≤ j < n, and with F n ∪ F j not being a boundary. There are several results of this nature in the literature, as will be detailed in the Introduction in historical and chronological terms. The second goal of this work lives in the context of classifying, up to equivariant cobordism, involutions (M, T ) whose fixed point set is a pre-selected manifold (or a disjoint union of manifolds) F. This line of problems is well-established in the literature, see in the Introduction references with several correlated results. Specifically, in this work we will address the case in which F is a connected sum of two projectives spaces real, complex and quaternionic, F = Kd P(n)#Kd P(n), with n odd, where d = 1, 2 and respectively symbolize the real, complex and quaternionic cases. Again, the relationship of this case with existing cases in the literature will be described in the Introduction.

The study mapped 278 scientific articles by the 41 leaders of the 24 groups that organized themselves under the line of investigation of the history of education in the central-west re-gion of Brazil. The purpose of the research was to verify how these researchers' choices about the scientific objects were established and how the epistemological assumptions of the works were established. For the methodological procedure, quantitative and qualitative analyzes were used, anchored in the critical design of the epistemological, gnosiological and ontological presuppositions of Gamboa (1987, 2008) and under the critical gaze of Bourdieu (1998) who reflected in his studies on the hierarchical theory of scientific objects, connected these theories instrumentalized scientific metrics, thus allowing to reflect and evaluate the production of leaders who were predisposed to produce scientifically. Preliminarily, the research groups indexed from the CNPq directory of the central-west region were surveyed, later, the organization of the organic structure was observed, then the curriculum lattes platform was used to collect scientific publications and from there, the bibliometric analysis was carried out, building citation indexes and study of the use of keywords, then you can relate these cat-egories with the analysis of the text demonstrating which identity was formed with the critical domain of the historiographical school of the New Cultural History. This school used strate-gies of dominance and symbolic projection, carrying out the advertising of itself, it was found that this not only happened in the center-west region of Brazil, but it is configured as a reflec-tion at the level of the western world, however, the care is alerted of researchers not to be ac-complices of a system, appropriating dominant concepts to seek more ways of accessing the academy (symbolic profit), since it is necessary to overvalue social struggles and not remove the marxism school from investigations, since it still it is a living movement in Education, revealing itself to be timeless.

Anthropogenic actions within watershed can cause impacts that alter ecosystem functions and negatively impact biodiversity. The beta diversity is useful for analyzing the effects of impacts between communities. The studies presented here were carried out in a watershed with high occupation by agriculture in the Cerrado biome and investigated the effects of land uses on the beta diversity of aquatic macroinvertebrates. In the first study, patterns of turnover and nestedness between tributary streams and reservoir were analyzed. Considering the direct influences of land uses on the community structure of the streams, the hypothesis was tested that the turnover and nestedness of communities in the reservoir would respond directly to the changes that occurred in the streams communities. The second study we analyzed the functional beta diversity with the action of the environmental filters of the watershed. Considering that land uses work as filters that select functional traits, it was asked which traits would relate to different land uses. Ten points were sampled, between streams and the reservoir and in the rainy and dry periods. The environmental variables of water were analyzed, determining the percentages of land use in the entire watershed and in the surroundings of each point. Most macroinvertebrates were identified down to the family level and family Chironomidae down to the genus level, and six categories of functional traits were used. The results of the frist study showed that the patterns that occurred in the streams did not directly influence the communities in the reservoir. Land uses and pollution prevented dispersal. The results of the second study indicated that only the body length trait was positively correlated with perennial agriculture and wetlands. However, there was a predominance in the community composition of a resilient trait and a seasonal increase in genera considered to be tolerant. The studies here demonstrated the considerable level of environmental degradation and impacts on the biodiversity of the watershed.

The Korean Wave, also known as Hallyu or k-wave, seems to present certain implications to the cultural tourism field and might be an example to other countries. Hallyu is comprehended as a cultural phenomenon that stimulated fast development of South Korea through soft power, which means the diffusion and the internationalization of South Korean popular culture. It is observed through literature review that public policies in South Korea established by the government were essential in order to achieve its actual scenario in tourism. This academic work has the objective to discuss its interfaces to tourism, as well as its economics and social impacts, bringing up some issues still little addressed in the academy regarding Hallyu Tourism, its cultural products and its impacts to international demand influences.

The final project arose from the concerns of a graduate student who, after experiences in extension projects, internships, and scientific initiation, began to question the relationship between elementary school teachers and the current public policies for financing basic education in Brazil. To address these concerns, this research seeks to identify how public elementary school teachers, especially high school teachers, understand public education financing policies. To this end, the work developed a search for answers to the following questions: How do public elementary school teachers understand public policies for financing Brazilian education? Is it possible to identify manifestations of these public policies in the classroom? To obtain this data, we provided an open-ended questionnaire for these same teachers to complete online, and the responses were analyzed through discursive textual analysis (DTA). The results indicate that there is currently a gap between teachers' understanding of how basic education financing works and how it actually works, generating doubts and insecurities for them, making discussions on the subject almost non-existent in all environments, including schools and during the training process of these teachers.

The thesis is situated in the field of historiographical research, particularly the History of School Institutions. Its object of study is the Casa Escola da Pesca, a public municipal school located in the insular region of the municipality of Belém, capital of the state of Pará. The school offers Primary and Secondary Education through Youth and Adult Education. It also offers Initial Training courses in Fishing and Aquaculture and Technical courses in Fishing Resources, in each stage, respectively. It uses the Alternation Pedagogy to organize its teaching. The main objective is to retell the history of the Escola da Pesca, taking the Alternation Pedagogy as the common thread. The School is the result of an educational and economic policy that enunciated the valorization of Sustainable Development initiated in the 1990s. Its goal was to include the region of Belém's islands in the economic dynamic whose riverside population lived from the work of artisanal fishing in the productive chain of the fish. The proposed objective for the school was to attend the children of the fishing workers, offering school education and technical training in fishing, taking the Alternation Pedagogy as the means for the integration and the balance between traditional school knowledge and the new work techniques. Their experience of the Alternation Pedagogy is part of the movement and evolution of this pedagogy. Interviews were conducted with students who had graduated from the first classes and also with people involved in the process of creation and installation of the Casa Escola da Pesca. In addition, we used as sources documents produced by and for the school. Fishery workers are part of a population that is mostly illiterate or with an average of three years in school. The training for their work takes place in the families through observation and practice. The creation of a fishing school was the materialization of the desire to have access to Basic Education. The interviews with the graduates revealed that studying at the Escola da Pesca has meant a change in their lives and in their perspective about life, work, and family. Most of the interviewees do not work in fishing, nor do they live in the region of the islands anymore. The school became a space of family, of memories, and of some personal projects.

The history of the deaf community is characterized by the struggle for their rights and spaces in society, including educational spaces. Despite the achievements, the community continues to face barriers concerning inclusion and its insertion in society, which is by right. The legislation guarantees access for deaf people to educational spaces, such as Law No. 10.436/02 and Decree No. 5.626/05, which recognize Brazilian sign language (BSL) as a legal means of communication and guarantee bilingual education. Other laws and decrees exist, but inclusion and teaching are only partially effective. It is crucial to recognize that inclusion alone is not enough. Apart from including deaf students at school, it is essential to think about methodologies that help professionals in the classroom since many concepts are abstract and hard to understand in Biology. Thus, this work aims at creating an accessible didactic material in BLS using the taxidermized animals of the Fauna Laboratory (LabFau) of UFSCar - Araras to assist in the teaching of Natural Sciences with a focus on the area of Conservation and protection of Biodiversity, according to the Curriculum of the State of São Paulo. A discussion on the importance of teaching materials accessible to deaf students in High School is proposed. This work contributes to the reflection of undergraduate students and teachers on the importance of using accessible didactic materials in BSL for teaching deaf students. Accessible material was produced by photographing taxidermized animals using different perspectives. A presentation was prepared that contained short videos in which information about the animals was presented in BSL. Five taxidermized animals of the Mammalia class and Eutheria subclass were used. Such didactic materials give access to visual and spatial information to deaf students, permitting a greater understanding of Biology content. This work should bring the teachers to reflect on the importance of effective inclusion and on methodologies that are accessible to deaf students.

In this work, we adress the study of stability of a reaction-difusion equation in two domains: in a family of surfaces of revolution without boundary and in a bounded open interval whose diffusion function vanishes at a point inside this interval. In the first problem, in addition to proving the existence of stable non-constant stationary solutions for the Allen-Cahn equation in a family of surfaces of revolution without boundary, we analyze the asymptotic behavior and the instability of solutions when λ → ∞, where λ is a positive parameter whose inverse can be interpreted as a difusibility coefficient. While in the second problem, called degenerate Allen-Cahn problem, because we are dealing with a difusion function that vanishes at a point inside the interval, the main operator is not uniformly elliptical and for this reason, it is not possible to use results of the related literature nor the usual spaces. In this case, we prove that a specific function, namely a step function taking only two values – the stable zeros of the bistable function f –, is a stable non-constant stationary solution of degenerate problem.

Medicinal chemistry and synthetic organic chemistry have established themselves as great allies of human development, producing bioactive compounds intended at the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and veterinary products. The N-heterocyclic compounds, which are present in the central skeleton of several natural products, have been widely studied, especially for obtaining drugs, since they are able to modify, modulate and optimize the properties according to the need in therapeutic treatments. Among this class, those that have the quinolinic nucleus in their structure deserve to be highlighted because of their wide range of pharmacological activities. In the literature there are classic routes for the synthesis of quinoline derivatives, however, even if efficient, many of them require conditions that affect the safety of the environment and the operator. Thus, it is necessary to study and expand different methods and techniques that follow the green chemistry principles and provide synthetic protocols that are as sustainable as possible, and effective at the same time. In this work, in addition to a review about the history, structure, synthesis and various applications of quinolinic compounds, methodologies developed in recent years that include their formation through C-H functionalization reactions were also be explored. More specifically, the formation of new derivatives from quinoline N-oxide and 1,3-oxazoline-2-thione were evaluated. Two quinolinic compounds denominated 3a (yield: 7-29%) and 3b (yield: 10-28%) were obtained, and the perspective is to continue optimizing the reaction, in order to explore its derivatives and introduce the study of bioactivity and possible applications.

This thesis proposes an implementation of a framework for mapping graphs onto manycore architectures with multi-objective metrics optimization. The aim is to propose a new approach in relation to the works found in the related literature. To validate this proposal, the following are presented: a calibration methodology and multi-objective mapping of tasks related to pattern detection in high-resolution images (binary and grayscale), and a proposal for a new self-adaptive methodology to be used in multi-objective algorithms for mapping applications for manycore architectures. The results obtained through the pattern detection and task mapping methodology on manycore architectures demonstrate a high rate of generalization and accuracy. This brings a new contribution regarding the use of the evaluated multi-objective algorithms, with the best performance obtained by the PESAII algorithm, which was not previously reported in the literature. The methodology related to the mapping and use of the self-adaptive strategy represents a complete study with the Hypervolume and IGD performance indicators, proving the greater effectiveness of PESAII for the Hypervolume metric. This also makes a new contribution regarding the NSGAIII and SPEA2 algorithms regarding the metric IGD, demonstrating the improvement of the obtained results in the use of the proposed self-adaptive strategy.

In the mid-1960s, discussions began on the reinvention of public administration in Brazil. The administrative reinvention brought to the discussion the new models, New Public Management and Managerialism. These models were put into practice via state reforms, which occurred concomitantly with educational reforms, with the Brazilian State being a signatory to the restructuring aimed at higher education. The Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), created by Decree nº 3.835, of 1960, since its creation presented different administrative models, sometimes with authoritarian bias, sometimes with democratic and managerial biases. In an attempt to identify the administrative models that influenced or interconnected the administrative structuring and the elaboration of the institutional policies of UFSCar during forty years, the guiding questions of the research are: What were the institutional policies of the period from 1960 to 2010 that aligned or interconnected with the managerial approach and what were the impacts of these policies in regards to the development of UFSCar? In which moment is it possible to say that the managerial institutional policies at UFSCar began? Were there institutional policies at UFSCar that could be classified as managerial? Did these institutional policies helped discovering UFSCar's identity? In order to answer such questions, the general objective of the research were: to discuss the interface between democratic management and the specificities or tools of the Managerialism perspective in the elaboration of UFSCar's institutional policies. To carry out this research the hypothetical-deductive method was adopted as well as the following resources: bibliographic review and integrative document analysis, semi-structured interviews with “probe questions” with UFSCar managers for the production of the metatext. This metatext contains six sections: the first presents the research trajectory; the second explains the political and economic aspects that surrounded the creation of UFSCar; the third addresses the specificities of the 1980s and the need to institutionalize democracy at UFSCar and understand the university's identity; the fourth deals with the specificities of the 1990s highlighting the adoption of Situational Strategic Planning, as an administrative tool; the fifth section discusses the institutional policies designed and put into practice from 2000 to 2010 for the democratization of the access to higher education, a period in which the UFSCar Institutional Development Plan (PDI) was identified with longitudinal strategies for university management; finally, the sixth and last section presents the conclusions of this study. It can be concluded that UFSCar's institutional agents, concerned with consolidating the institution's identity as an internationally recognized university with academic and social prestige and with the use of democratic management as a guiding administrative model, constituted the UFSCar ethos emphasizing the specificities from the managerial-democratic approach which made it possible to interconnect the theoretical references of democratic management with practices and uses of managerialism for the elaboration of institutional policies while denying the centralizing authoritarian approach of the university founders.

One of the main limitations to vegetal growth and development of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in acid and highly weathered Brazilian soils is the low availability of phosphorus (P) in solution, due to fixation of this nutrient in soils colloids and insoluble compounds formation with iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al). Among the alternatives to increase phosphate fertilization efficiency highlights the use of competing anions for phosphate adsorptions sites, such as silicate. The silicon (Si) addition in the soil can occur through the stonemeal technology, by the application of silicate rock powders considered as by-products of mining. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of Si sources and doses on P adsorption and on development of the common bean plants (cultivar BRS Estilo) on a Rhodic Hapludox soil . The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, in pots of 11 dm³ (to grow the bean plants) and 1 dm³ (for adsorption analyses), with a completely randomized design in a factorial scheme 5 x 2 + 2, with 11 replications. Experimental treatments included five doses (0, 200, 400, 600, and 800 kg ha-1) and two sources of Si (conventional – Agrosilício Plus® and alternative – silicate rock powder). The P adsorption by the soil samples with different doses and sources of Si was evaluated by batch laboratory experiments, using increasing P doses (0, 40, 80, 160, 320, and 640 mg L-1), and the results were fitted by the Langmuir non-linear model. At 53 days after the plant emergency (peak flowering stage), the application of the two sources of Si did not affect the biometric parameters of stem diameter, plant total height, and shoot dry weight. The rock powder provided the highest shoot fresh weight of the common bean plants. The Agrosilício Plus® in increasing doses favored the increase of the total Falker Chlorophyll Index by plants, differently from the alternative source. The Langmuir non-linear model proved adequate to describe the P adsorption by the Rhodic Hapludox soil. The use of the Agrosilício Plus® and the silicate rock powder did not promote changes in the P adsorption parameters (maximum adsorption and affinity coefficient) by the soil colloids.

In most of the world, women’s access to political power is still a challenge. If we look at the global percentage of women in national parliaments, specifically lower chambers and unicameral parliaments, women occupy on average 26,5% of the positions. In the 1990s, the global average was around 10%. To promote and improve women’s representation, several countries adopted gender quotas. Latin American countries were some of the first to do so, having Argentina as pioneer in adopting legislative quotas. Ever since Argentina adopted the quotas in 1991, over a hundred countries have adopted some type of quota. Some countries were more successful than others. This dissertation seeks to explore the importance of institutional factors such as the electoral system, party system and quota laws in place and cultural factors such as the women’s movement in acquiring political rights and emancipation in South American countries. More specifically, in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Peru and Uruguay. These countries were chosen due to their historical and cultural similarities and sociological timelines. Some questions motivate this study: 1) Under which conditions were quotas adopted? 2) Once quotas were adopted, can we perceive any cultural differences in countries where the quotas were successful? 3) What about in countries were the quotas were not successful? To answer these questions about cultural changes, we use data from the World Value Survey (WVS) regarding societies perception of women’s rights and female leadership. Institutionally, we look at the quota laws, electoral system and percentage of women elected.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze a graphic novel and a movie, both named Turma da Mônica: Laços, in which we will approach similarities and differences between them, concerning plot, script, character design and visual characterization, sound, framework, and the placement of easter eggs. We will start by investigating the different terminations that are used by researchers and academicians when they relate to a work resulted of an interpretation from a former text. In the film field, there are those who name these relations, adaptations. Others may prefer to name them, intermediality. Transmedia storytelling is also a termination often used. On the other hand, in the field of linguistics, some may call it intersemiotic translation. Others name it hipertextuality. The multitude of terminations may seem confusing, but it is fundamental that we are able to name the relation between the two works of art that we will be analyzing. Subsequently, we will investigate the relations between both media: comics and movies, establishing comparisons among their common or proper codes. The life and work of Mauricio de Sousa also will be presented, as well as Monica’s Gang’s Universe. We will explore its unfolding, classifying the many “gang’s” that makes it up, as well as the other aspects of the franchise, that spreads into different kinds of comics. For the analysis, we seek to identify the ways in which both narratives relate, whether diverging whether converging, as well as the production of sense created by visual or sound effects, e by the choises made during the process of character development or by actors’ characterization. Besides, we will briefly discuss the way by which the placement of easter eggs was made as a mean to estimulte an active search by the public.
