Guarino Guarini's SS. Sindone Chapel : between reliquary and cenotaph

Debanné, Janine January 1995 (has links)
Guarino Guarini's SS. Sindone Chapel and its relic offer the occasion to contemplate the paradox of the Incarnation in architecture--a dialectic of presence and absence. The thesis begins with a return to the Gospel accounts of the Empty Tomb, and examines the tradition of reliquary and martyria which the Chapel is inscribed in. The Incarnation theme is then traced to the late seventeenth century context of the Chapel and is considered in the Counter-Reformation context of Turin. The architectural organization of the theme of presence and absence is then explored in the Chapel. In Part II, an examination of Architettura Civile, Guarini's treatise on architecture, seeks to understand the theory of parallel projection (ortografia) with regards to the Chapel's themes. In the last stage Guarini's philosophical treatise sheds some interesting light on ortografia--Presence and absence weave an architectural idea, a geometrical theory, a theological mystery.

Entre Lisboa e Recife : ganhos e recompensas no Brasil holandês, 1636-1654 /

Santos, Thiago Cavalcante dos January 2018 (has links)
Orientador: Claudinei Magno Magre Mendes / Coorientador: André Figueiredo Rodrigues / Banca: Jose Carlos Barreiro / Banca: Milton Carlos Costa / Banca: Karla Maria da Silva / Banca: Sezinando Luiz Menezes / Resumo: Esta pesquisa de Doutorado tem como objetivo estudar a insurreição luso-brasileira antes os holandeses que conquistaram o Nordeste da América portuguesa no período denominado de Brasil holandês (1630 - 1654). Dentro dessa perspectiva, visa-se observar como a busca por títulos nobiliárquicos, as mercês, e recompensas materiais nortearam a sublevação local, sendo elementos decisivos para a ocorrência das batalhas contra os invasores holandeses. Para tanto, utiliza-se como documentos diários de cronistas lusitanos e holandeses, bem como cartas do Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino e as de posse do Conde da Torre, enviado para libertar o Nordeste em 1639. O ganho de recompensas pela Coroa portuguesa, dependente da Espanha no cenário da União Ibérica (1580-1640), permitiu que os sublevadores conquistassem direitos que foram estendidos a seus descendentes, bem como exerceram carreiras políticas nas dimensões do Império português. Dessa forma, a identidade de ser português foi um mecanismo de coesão que possibilitou com que senhores de engenho aliassem a sujeitos de estratos sociais inferiores, como escravos e indígenas, ao passo que deu condições para que Portugal mantivesse seus domínios no Novo Mundo / Abstract: This PhD research aims to study the Portuguese-Brazilian insurrection before the Dutch who conquered the Northeast of Portuguese America in the period known as Dutch Brazil (1630-1654). Within this perspective, it is aimed to observe how the search for nobiliarchic titles, mercês, and material rewards guided the local uprising, being decisive elements for the occurrence of the battles against the Dutch invaders. For this purpose, it is used as daily documents of Portuguese and Dutch chroniclers, as well as letters from the Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino and those of the Conde da Torre, sent to liberate the Northeast in 1639. The gain of rewards by the Portuguese Crown, dependent on Spain in the scenario of the Iberian Union (1580-1640), allowed the uprisers to conquer rights that were extended to their descendants, as well as exerted political careers in the dimensions of the Portuguese Empire. Thus, the identity of being Portuguese was a mechanism of cohesion that made it possible for Sugar masters allied to subjects from lower social strata, such as slaves and natives, while providing conditions for Portugal to maintain its dominions in the New World / Doutor

À glória dos vencedores

Rodrigues, Michelle de Araujo Schampovski 14 December 2011 (has links)
Resumo: O domínio holandês e a Guerra do Açúcar no nordeste do Brasil (1630-1654) foram relatados contemporaneamente por escritores ligados direta ou indiretamente a estes acontecimentos. Dentre estes escritores estavam soldados e religiosos, luso-brasileiros e holandeses. Notadamente, alguns desses relatos se distinguem por constituírem objeto de encomenda e por seu teor panegírico – que visa elogiar e engrandecer ao patrono. Destacamos, aqui, relatos encomendados pelo Conde Maurício de Nassau-Siegen (1604-1679), governador, capitão e almirante-general do Brasil holandês de 1637 a 1644; e por João Fernandes Vieira (1613-1681), migrante madeirense, oriundo dos estratos inferiores da sociedade portuguesa e que se tornou personagem ativo na luta contra os holandeses. A encomenda de relatos que tratam da guerra entre luso-brasileiros e holandeses no nordeste açucareiro não constitui um caso isolado, visto que durante o Antigo Regime o patrocínio de obras literárias era prática comum. A encomenda de obras literárias de cunho panegírico era um artifício utilizado pelos patronos para que tivessem seus feitos registrados com aura gloriosa. Contudo este mecanismo era privilégio da nobreza, que possuía cabedais para incentivar a produção e impressão dessas obras. Os relatos incentivados pelo Conde Maurício de Nassau constituem exemplos clássicos deste padrão, pois ele era membro da nobreza dos Países Baixos. Por outro lado, o fato de João Fernandes Vieira encomendar relatos panegíricos constitui uma exceção a esta regra, devido a sua origem dentre estratos inferiores da sociedade portuguesa. É certo que Nassau e Vieira tinham interesses pessoais mediante a publicação desses escritos, tais como buscar enaltecimento diante de seus pares, no caso de Nassau, e obter nobilitação, no caso de Vieira. Para alcançar tais objetivos, os autores desses escritos uniram o tom panegírico ao universo religioso, construindo uma imagem gloriosa de seus respectivos patronos.

A visão de Gaspar Barleu sobre a fase holandesa no Brasil e o papel das obras de Piso e Margrave

No. of bitstreams: 1 Reinaldo Sudatti Neto.pdf: 412496 bytes, checksum: b08ff9b3f0b9ca3e03544bc1abb824bf (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010-05-21 / Secretaria da Educação do Estado de São Paulo / This research wants to investigate how Kaspar Barleus acquired the knowledge of Dutch occupation in Brazil. As well as the possible influences of Jorge Margrave s Natural History of the Brazil, published in 1941, and Guilherme Piso s Natural History and Medicine of the Western India, published in 1957, could have had Barleus book. The work produced by Kaspar Barleus, Rerum in Brasilia et alibi gestarum, in 1647, was commissioned by Nassau who wished to make a report to highlight his accomplishments as an administrator during his tenure as leader of the Dutch company in Brazil. Nassau made available to Barleus narratives and drawings made during the Dutch occupation which led us to formulate a hypothesis of his reliance on these particular sources to write his book. After reading and reviewing the work of Barleus, reprinted in Portuguese in 1974, we ve found lot of similarities between his work and the works of Piso (1957) and Margrave (1941). These similarities let us to believe that our hypothesis is confirmed. In fact, Kaspar Barleus used writings of other authors as base to produce his book about Nassau s achievements / Esta pesquisa objetiva estudar o modo como Barleu assimilou os conhecimentos sobre a fase de ocupação holandesa no Brasil e os possíveis papéis que as obras de Jorge Margrave História Natural do Brasil, editada em 1941, e História Natural e Médica da Índia Ocidental, de Guilherme Piso, editada em 1957, teriam tido na elaboração do seu livro. A obra elaborada por Gaspar Barleu, História dos feitos recentemente praticados durante os oito anos no Brasil, de 1647, foi encomendada por Nassau que desejava que o autor fizesse um relato que enaltecesse seus feitos como administrador, durante os anos que permaneceu na liderança da empresa holandesa, no Brasil. Nassau colocou à disposição de Barleu as narrativas e desenhos elaborados durante a fase holandesa, o que nos levou à formulação da hipótese de que ele teria se baseado nessas fontes para escrever seu livro. No presente estudo, após a leitura e análise da obra de Barleu, reeditada em português, em 1974, foram encontradas muitas semelhanças dessa com as de Piso (1957) e Margrave (1941), o que nos levou a uma confirmação da hipótese de que Barleu teria se baseado em outros escritos para elaborar o seu livro sobre os feitos de Nassau e evidencia o papel dos escritores citados

Circulating Knowledges: Literature and the Idea of the Library in Renaissance England

Windhauser, Kevin Joseph January 2021 (has links)
“Circulating Knowledges: Literature and the Idea of the Library in Renaissance England” pairs literary texts and libraries to illustrate how literary creation and library building in England from 1500 to 1700 were deeply invested in one another. The history of English Renaissance libraries has generally been analyzed from the viewpoints of religious history and historiography, seen by scholars as a story of Protestant librarians attempting to preserve (or invent) a history of Protestant England. Many literary critics —citing Thomas Bodley’s notorious distaste for “stage plaies”—have typically reduced institutional libraries to elitist boogeymen hostile to popular or vernacular literature. Revising these narratives, this dissertation brings together a large corpus, including works by Thomas More, John Lyly, Edmund Spenser, Robert Greene, Christopher Marlowe, Francis Bacon, and Margaret Cavendish, to illustrate how literary depictions of England’s fledgling libraries shaped their creation and development, while the practices of these inchoate libraries in turn influenced literary texts. “Circulating Knowledges” advances its argument on several fronts. First, I show that developments (or a perceived lack of development) in library organization, access, and use appeared in literary texts, which often depicted literary libraries in response to these developments. Second, I home in on moments when literary texts that seem not at all interested in libraries become unexpectedly fruitful texts through which to develop literary thinking about libraries. In the process of excavating this literary interest in libraries, I demonstrate that Renaissance literature concerns itself not only with depicting, commenting on, or objecting to the developments in library creation happening during the period, but also in imagining alternative possibilities for how libraries might function, conceptions of a library that often outstripped what was materially possible in the period: these conceptions I term “the idea of the library.” In detailing literature’s preoccupation with developments in Renaissance library systems, I offer new perspectives on the period’s literary attitudes toward the creation, transmission, and protection of knowledge, all questions which the building—or imagining—of a library brings to the forefront.
