Deadly Disease

This study examines how the novels Miss Janie’s Girls and Sula discussed the family life, illness, fight against pandemics, and need for care during a time of combatting the disease. This study has more importance in the context of the pandemic Covid-19 situation that laid stress on social distancing while the immediate demand of the patient is taking care of by the family members. This study establishes a link between fighting with a deadly disease and feminism, and for that, it brings a comparative analysis of the issues e.g. illness, care, love, and today’s American family from the 1970s to the 2020s selected fiction. The influence of changed living style on family relations, in contemporary American family life, with an emphasis on family love is underscored in facing the challenge of lethal diseases. However, this article concludes that the family also expands to the adopted children and fostered mothers.

Personal Status

The family law was not codified in both Syria and Egypt until 1917 when the Ottomans issued the Ottoman Family Rights Law, which applied to Muslims, Christians, and Jews each according to its provisions. This Ottoman Family Rights Law and the book of the Egyptian scholar Muhammad Qadri Pasha (‘Legal Ruling on Personal Status’) formed the first core of personal status laws in both Egypt and Syria, which s explains the survival of Islamic law to this day in personal status laws, in contrast to other branches of law. This paper presents a comparative study between the Egyptian Personal Status Law No. 25 of 1920, and the Syrian Personal Status Law No. 59 of 1953, regarding divorce provisions.

Partindo da indenização por abandono afetivo, analisam-se neste texto duas perspectivas sobre o afeto: o sentimento e o dever de cuidado. A revisão das duas correntes leva à necessidade de fundamentar uma nova perspectiva que acolha a complexidade das relações familiares contemporâneas: o afeto enquanto vínculo constitutivo e distintivo da entidade familiar. A afetividade passa a ser entendida como o elemento necessário à constituição de família e à distinção desse tipo de relação frente a outras. Serão analisadas as teorias da causalidade adotadas no Brasil e na Itália, para avaliar a que melhor se aplica ao caso mencionado. Distinguem-se também os danos moral e existencial, para verificar qual deles é incidente em situações de abandono parental. Numa abordagem interdisciplinar, reavalia-se o princípio da afetividade e sua abordagem no ordenamento jurídico atual. Conclui-se que a subjetividade do afeto é inelidível e, por si mesmo, não pode constituir elemento gerador de direitos ou deveres. Postula-se então que os componentes de um grupo social têm autonomia para reconhecer o afeto como constituinte de sua relação, atribuindo-lhe constância tal, que se expresse no desejo mútuo de manter sua pertença e fortalecer sua vinculação recíproca. Esse ato de nomeação pelo qual tal grupo, em razão de seu afeto, se percebe como família é uma forma de objetivação suficiente para que o direito recupere, no afeto autodeclarado, seu objeto de intervenção.
