[en] ARCHITECTURE IN THE CHRONICLES OF ANTÓNIO LOBO ANTUNES: WAYS OF LIVING IN CONTEMPORARY SPACE / [pt] A ARQUITETURA NAS CRÔNICAS DE ANTÓNIO LOBO ANTUNES: MODOS DE VIVER NO ESPAÇO CONTEMPORÂNEO

VERONICA RODRIGUES FERREIRA GOMES 04 August 2006 (has links)
[pt] A proposta desta dissertação é a de explorar, através de crônicas de António Lobo Antunes, as relações entre o homem urbano contemporâneo e seu espaço de viver, buscando salientar e apontar a relevância de seus textos, na compreensão destas relações, para a elaboração de um esboço dos tempos atuais. O autor imprime em seus textos o cenário do seu tempo; ou seja, este universo abrange as gerações nascidas em meados do século XX, que cresceram após a Segunda Grande Guerra que foram e são testemunhas da morte de ideais políticos e sociais e do surgimento de um sujeito descentrado e sem eixo, com seus antigos valores alterados e suas referências escasseadas, numa nova sociedade regida por um mercado capitalista em constante expansão. Estas mutações que se refletem - através da arquitetura e do urbanismo - nos espaços e ambientes vividos por esse indivíduo são captadas com precisão pelo olhar peculiar do autor em suas crônicas. Sua percepção, especialmente observadora do desconforto e desajuste do homem contemporâneo, faz com que, ao explorar a vida urbana lisboeta, ultrapasse as fronteiras culturais e locais dessa cidade, para atingir qualquer leitor contemporâneo. / [en] The proposal of this dissertation is to explore, throughout António Lobo Antunes´s chronicles, the relations between the urban contemporaneous man and his living space, inquiring to emphasize and point out the importance of his texts, to the apprehension of those relations, on the elaboration of a nowadays sketch. The author print out in his texts the scenery of his own time, that is, this universe embraces all the generations borned on the middle of the XX century, who grew up after the 2º Great World War and were and still are witnesses of the death of politicals and socials ideals and appearance of an individual uncentered and without a main axle, with the scarceness of his references and his old values changed, into a new society managed by a continuous expanding capitalist market. Those mutations, which are reflected, trough architecture and urbanism, into the spaces and environments lived by this individual, are captured with precision by the unique look of the author in his chronicles. His perception and specially observation of the uncomfortableness and unreguleness of contemporaneous man, when exploring Lisbon urban life, exceeds cultural borders of this city reaching any nowadays reader.

Sobre la dinámica interactiva y el hacinamiento de los viajeros en dos líneas de buses de Lima

Rojas-Quispe, Christopher-Dante January 2017 (has links)
A lo largo del trabajo entonces notarán un análisis constante desde el corazón mismo de la observación, así, son las categorías y definiciones surgidas desde el terreno mismo las que interpelan al lector y promueven una lectura activa y no pasiva, son las grietas de la propia naturaleza de lo observado, los limites que toda participación observante conlleva y lo complejo de reflejar una realidad siempre en movimiento, lo que hará las veces de puntales de acceso al texto. El trabajo está dividido en tres segmentos. El punto de partida son nociones más o menos fijas que sirvan de soporte para el surgimiento de las categorías de la segunda parte, las cuales darán paso a un zoom out que permita tener un plano general de lo analizado y reverberar aquello que podría haber sido omitido en la primera y segunda parte, así como presentar matices dentro de ellas. / Trabajo de investigación

Biblical spiritualities of the "City to come" : narratives of meaning, complexity, and resistance

Du Toit, Calvyn Clarence 05 1900 (has links)
“How does one develop an appropriate urban Christian Spirituality?” is the question this study asks. First, I develop a rigorous, yet open, theoretical framework with which to describe Christian Spirituality’s complexity: a description focused primarily on constraining the markers of Biblical Spirituality and City Spirituality. Within the limits placed on the complex system of Christian Spirituality, I begin exploring various, mostly minor, tropes of urban biblical spiritualities in the “Old” and “New” Testament. From these analyses, I evince the implications of these biblical spirituality tropes for the current city theater, and also construe a set of questions evaluating the appropriateness of mitigating urban communities. The study culminates in an imagined ideal mitigating urban community named an ekklesiastes: a wisdom teaching technology of urban meaning, complexity, and resistance. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M.

Intervenções urbanas e ressignificações no centro de Aracaju : um estudo acerca do Beco dos Cocos

Passos, Elayne Messias 02 August 2013 (has links)
Aracaju, capital of Sergipe, was inaugurated on March 17, 1855, from a unique architectural design, which structured the city just like a chessboard, with the aim of favoring the wealthier social classes, at the expense of disadvantaged groups excluded from the main spaces of the metropolis. That same historical horizon came the Beco dos Cocos, alleyway which functioned primarily as a transit route for landing and supply of coconuts in the fledgling central trade of Aracaju. In the course of time, the alley became a simple crossing point loads to a bohemian enclave, address famous cabarets, becoming then one of the largest areas of prostitution and drug trafficking of the capital of Sergipe, until become what it is today, almost an open bathroom. The central issue guiding this work is, from a microscopic cut, a category scarcely studied in Urban Anthropology, the alley, analyze and understand a variety of precious objects and questions about the functioning of a city, the relationships that may exist and constitute over a platter, its history, and as such movements reveal the daily life of contemporary urban life. From this premise, this research attempts to explain the aesthetic and social transformations occurring in the Beco dos Cocos, the historical process of marginalization of a place so culturally rich and the consequences of interventions and new meanings in this place and to examine to what extent the presence of Government was instrumental in that. In this context, the study turns to build the story of Beco dos Cocos concomitant building of Aracaju, known by some as the first planned city of the country, in order to reducing the size of the city to the heterogeneous micro, untangling the most images of varied social and cultural life of certain times, to understand the phenomenon and urban forms of sociability in the metropolis. / Aracaju, capital sergipana, foi fundada em 17 de março de 1855, a partir de um projeto arquitetônico peculiar, que estruturava a cidade tal qual um tabuleiro de xadrez, com o suposto intuito de privilegiar as classes mais abastadas socialmente, em detrimento dos grupos menos favorecidos, excluídos dos espaços principais da urbe. Nesse mesmo horizonte histórico, surgiu o Beco dos Cocos, travessa que funcionava, primordialmente, como rota de passagem para o desembarque e abastecimento de cocos no incipiente comércio central aracajuano. No curso dos tempos, o Beco transformou-se de um simples local de passagem de cargas a um reduto boêmio, endereço de famosos cabarés, convertendo-se, depois, também em uma das maiores zonas tráfico de entorpecentes da capital sergipana, até se tornar o que é hoje, quase que um banheiro a céu aberto. A problemática central deste trabalho é, a partir de um recorte microscópico, de uma categoria pouco estudada na Antropologia Urbana, o beco, analisar e compreender uma variedade preciosa de objetos e indagações acerca do funcionamento de uma cidade, das relações que podem existir e se constituir ao longo de uma travessa, de sua história e, como tais movimentos revelam o cotidiano da vida urbana contemporânea. Partindo dessa premissa, esta pesquisa pretende explicar as transformações estéticas e sociais ocorridas no Beco dos Cocos, o processo histórico de marginalização de um lugar tão rico culturalmente e as respectivas consequências das intervenções e ressignificações no local; e examinar até que ponto a presença do Poder Público foi determinante nesse processo. Sob esse aspecto, o estudo volta-se a construir a história do Beco dos Cocos concomitante à edificação de Aracaju, conhecida por alguns, como a primeira cidade planejada do país, a fim de, reduzindo a dimensão heterogênea da cidade ao micro, destrinchar as mais variadas imagens da vida social e cultural de determinadas épocas, compreender o fenômeno urbano e as formas de sociabilidade presentes na urbe.
