Orientador: Denise Aparecida Soares de Moura / Banca: Yllan de Mattos Oliveira / Banca: Fábio Kuhn / Resumo: A proposta deste estudo é investigar o funcionamento da câmara municipal de São Paulo no período no qual a capitania esteve politicamente subordinada ao governador do Rio de Janeiro e ao governador militar de Santos, entre 1748-1765. Com base na vasta literatura sobre a instituição camarária, a hipótese inicial deste trabalho era de que a governança local teria se posicionado a favor da decisão da Coroa portuguesa em suprimir o governador da capitania em virtude das reformas político-administrativas aplicadas no centro-sul que visavam otimizar a exploração dos sertões minerais. A pesquisa, contudo, revelou que a câmara foi contrária à supressão da autonomia, embora essa reação tenha ocorrido apenas nos anos iniciais e finais desse intervalo. Mas a mudança mais significativa foi o reordenamento da interlocução dos camaristas com o funcionalismo régio, o que assegurou as bases de sua governabilidade. A sobrevivência da instituição camarária e a manutenção de sua jurisdição em uma capitania sem governador contribuíram para comprovar seu vigor institucional. Por outro lado, a pesquisa demonstrou que essa supressão de governador pode ser melhor compreendida se vinculada às tensões entre as coroas ibéricas na definição de suas balizas geográficas na América. Para entender esse momento singular da história da câmara de São Paulo, de sede de uma capitania sem autonomia administrativa, foi feito um recuo ao período do governo de D.

Based on the extensive literature on the subject, the initial hypothesis was that local governance would be positioned in favor of the Portuguese Crown decision to abolish the governor of the captaincy because of political and administrative reforms implemented in southcentral optimize the exploitation of mineral lands. The survey, however, revealed that the town council was against the suppression of autonomy, although this reaction has occurred only in the early years and end of that range. But the most significant change was the reorganization council's dialogue with the royal bureaucracy, which ensured the basis of its governance. The survival of the city council institution and maintenance of its jurisdiction in a captaincy without governor contributed to prove its institutional force. On the other hand, research has shown that suppression governor can be better understood if linked to tensions between the Iberian crowns in defining their geographical beacons in America. To understand this unique moment in the history of the São Paulo's city council, headquarters of a captaincy without administrative autonomy, it was made a retreat to the government for the period of D. Luís Mascarenhas (1739-1748) to define the political behavior of the council in the period with reference to this general relationship. As regarding the documentation were used especially administrative collections of municipal and letters exchanged between the royal authorities / Mestre

Enfatizar a educação no encontro cultural entre jesuítas e nativos na América portuguesa do século XVI é o objetivo final da presente pesquisa. Nesse sentido, e tendo em vista a alteridade cultural dos sujeitos, dedica-se grande parte da dissertação no trato de ressaltar os aspectos culturais próprios da Companhia de Jesus, e suas dimensões educacionais, e trabalhar as representações da cultura indígena pelos registros dos religiosos da época. Toma-se como fonte uma quantidade considerável de documentos primários, sobretudo as cartas jesuítas, e uma ampla produção historiográfica sobre o período. Da História Cultural francesa são os referenciais teóricos (Michel de Certeau e Roger Chartier); e, em diálogo com as demais áreas vizinhas de produção de conhecimento histórico, o trabalho pretende colher da antropologia, filosofia, linguística, literatura, psicologia elementos que preencham lacunas interpretativas. De um lado, as adaptações do modus procedendi inaciano em meio às dificuldades nas terras além-mar. Por outro lado, a resistência dos costumes dos índios ante a vinda da Europa católica quinhentista. Em estratégias e artifícios, a educação faz presença nas investidas missionarias, no intuito de regenerar o degenerado, converter ao cristianismo, salvar e ajudar as almas, impor a moral cristã e expandir os domínios do reino e do Reino. / Emphasizing education in the cultural encounter between Jesuits and natives in Portuguese America in the sixteenth century is the ultimate goal of this research. Taking into account the cultural alterity of the subjects, a great part of the dissertation is dedicated in highlighting the inherent cultural aspects of the Society of Jesus and its educational dimensions, and discussing the representations of indigenous culture through the religious records of that time. A considerable amount of primary documents, especially the Jesuit letters, and a large historiographic production on the period are taken as sources. The theoretical references are from the French Cultural History (Michel de Certeau and Roger Chartier); and in dialogue with the other neighboring areas of historical knowledge production, this work aims to gather elements from anthropology, linguistics, literature, philosophy, and psychology that fill interpretative gaps. On the one hand, the adaptations of the Ignatian modus procedendi amid the difficulties in the lands overseas. On the other hand, the resistance of the indigenous customs in confrontation with the arrival of Catholic Europeans of the sixteenth century. Among strategies and artifices, education is present in the missionary approaches, in order to regenerate the degenerate, convert to Christianity, save and help souls, impose Christian morality and expand the realms of the kingdom and the Kingdom. / Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Pós-Graduação - PIB-PÓS

John of Damascus was an early eighth century theologian in the Jerusalem Patriarchate. His family supplied financial administrators in Syro-Palestine for most of the seventh century, who were involved in surrendering Damascus to the Arabs if not also to the Persians. They thrived in the sectarian environment under the Umayyads. Numerous Greek Lives paint John in legendary terms; however, these are late and unreliable. I deconstruct the Lives decoupling his timeline from Byzantine Iconoclasm, arguing that there is no evidence and good reason to think that he did not leave the Arab administration because of vexed piety, persecution or administrative language change. Rather, focusing on the chronicler's treatment of John's family, I argue that John left office for his own reasons. I propose that John was instrumental in a quid pro quo: cathedral for patriarchate negotiation. Consequently, the Arabs built the Damascus Mosque on the site of the cathedral church of St John the Baptist, and the (dyothelite) Chalcedonian party moved to Jerusalem, where they reestablished the Jerusalem Patriarchate. Thus, I argue the context of John's polemical works is Jerusalem and patriarchal policy. Further, I argue that John was commissioned to produce something like 'proto-school' texts in the context of debate in the Anastasis with internal Maronite and external West and East Syrian interlocutors. Then I look at one example of John's theological creativity to show how this context impinged on his theological program. John appropriates Maximus the Confessor's term perichoresis and reduces its scope to the Incarnation while moving it into the doctrine of God for the first time. I show that he does this for polemical reasons in order to contravene each of his interlocutors with a simple biblical rhetorical model providing Chalcedonian monks in debate with a simple formula against better educated foes. This thesis demonstrates that reading John out of context fails to appreciate his creative response to these local exigencies.
