Abstract
The phrase of the title, which is in Brazilian Portuguese, means ‘with maximum energy’ or ‘with all the force you can muster’. The subtitle is one I used when speaking at a conference in Finland to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the University of Helsinki. I asked rhetorically ‘Can an Intellectual be a Woman? Can a Woman be an Intellectual?’ and focused on the women of the First (1890–1920) Chicago School of Sociology. If the first phrase is my aim, the second is my ‘meaning of life’ question.
