Desejamos, por meio do estudo da vida material, vislumbrar o cotidiano dos habitantes do planalto e atingir o seio de suas relações e formas de sociabilidade instigadas pelo trânsito de objetos e bens. Refletiremos sobre tais redes sociais no nível familiar e de vizinhança, para alcançar as sensibilidades dos moradores da vila em relação aos indivíduos e às coisas. Investigaremos as condições de vida material dos moradores da região e sua maneira de se relacionar com a cultura material, a qual os inventários nos permitem acessar. Através do estudo de certos aspectos da materialidade da vila e do domicílio conheceremos limites e possibilidades materiais da sociedade que se constituía na região. Analisaremos as redes de relações de sociabilidades em que os indivíduos se imiscuíam, e pelas quais circulavam objetos e bens, a partir das trocas comerciais, dos empréstimos e das partilhas de bens. As trocas evidenciam a importância econômica das mercadorias, objetos e bens, apontando para diferentes níveis de riqueza e pobreza presentes na região. Os empréstimos revelam algo das relações de solidariedade e de interesse que conectavam os indivíduos de um mesmo ambiente, uma vez que faziam passar, por um período de tempo, um item de um indivíduo a outro. Já as partilhas e heranças faziam crescer ou reduzir patrimônios, desvelando dispositivos e lógicas que marcavam a dinâmica de sua constituição e reconstituição. Através dos testamentos, por fim, é possível entrever aspectos das formas de sentir dos habitantes da região, concernentes a família, principalmente, e a materialidade do patrimônio / Abstract: This research is related to the analyses of the material culture and São Paulo relationships, between 1580 and 1640, consisting in inventories and wills. We would like, through the material life study, present the daily of the people who lived in the village of São Paulo and shows which was the main way to relation done through the objects and goods. We are going to think about these social relationships on family and neighborhood, to reach the sensitivity of village's residents related to individuals and things. We are going to investigate and understand the conditions of resident's material life in the São Paulo plateau, even so their connection behavior with material culture, which are in the inventories. Through the study of specific aspects in the village and houses, we are going to know some of the limits and material possibilities in the society that was born in the region. We are going to analysis the social networks due to goods and objects, commercial, lending and division of the property. This trading shows the economic importance of the goods and objects, confirming the different levels of richness and poverty in the place. The trading prove the community of interests that connected the people in the same environment, since they changed, for a period of time, an item to person and after to other. The legacy and divisions collaborated to increase or decrease the birthright, unveiling and logical devices that marked the dynamics of its constitution and reconstitution. Over the wills, it's possible to see the aspects of the residents feelings, related the family, and the material legacy / Mestrado / Politica, Memoria e Cidade / Mestra em História

This thesis takes as its object of study a certain strand of Early Modern English writing characterised by its cornucopian invention, immethodical structure, and creatively exuberant, often chaotic, means of expression. It takes as its point of departure the Erasmian theory of ‘copia' (rhetorical abundance), expanding upon it freely in order to formulate new and independent notions of copious vernacular writing as it is practised in 16th- and 17th-century contexts. Throughout I argue for the continuity and pervasiveness of the pursuit of linguistic plenitude, in contrast to a prevailing belief that the outpouring of 'words' and 'things' started to dissipate in the transition from one century (16th) to the next (17th). The writers to be discussed are Thomas Nashe, Robert Burton, John Taylor the ‘Water-Poet', and Sir Thomas Urquhart. Each of the genres in which these writers operate–prose-poetry, the essay, the pamphlet, and the universal language–emerge either toward the end of the 16th century or during the course of the 17th century, and so can be said to take copious writing in new and experimental directions not fully accounted for in the current scholarship. My contribution to the literature lies principally in its focus on the emergence of these literary forms in an Early Modern English context, with an emphasis on the role played by copiousness of expression in their stylistic development and how they in turn develop the practice of copia.

O intuito é perceber as estratégias empregadas pelo Santo Ofício como forma de espraiar seu poder em um período anterior à Visitação Pombalina de 1763, dentro da realidade da colônia de vasta extensão e diversas populações. Neste contexto, buscamos identificar os agentes do Santo Ofício, assim como, as formas utilizadas para implantar o disciplinamento moral e religioso neste espaço e nesta sociedade. Nos embasamos, como fonte principal, nos manuscritos dos Cadernos do Promotor da Inquisição de Lisboa, para, através deles, detectarmos os procedimentos estabelecidos pelos agentes inquisitoriais; apontar, quantitativamente e qualitativamente quais eram as denúncias mais relevantes do ponto de vista do Tribunal; e, identificar, por qual razão algumas queixas não se tornaram processos. / This research aims to analyse how the actions of the Court of the Holy Office in the Portuguese Amazon – Maranhão and Grão-Pará – within the temporal space which extends from 1640 to 1750. The intention is to understand the strategies employed by the Holy Office as a way of spreading its power in a period prior to the Visitation of 1763 during Pombal’s rule within the reality of the colony market by its huge extension and its diverse populations. In this context, we search to identify its agents, as well as the forms used to implement moral and religious discipline in this space and in this society. We will base ourselves, as main source, on the manuscripts of the Promoter of the Inquisition of Lisbon, and through them, try to detect the procedures established by the inquisitorial agents; quantitatively and qualitatively, which were the most relevant complaints from the Court's point of view; and to identify, for which reason some complaints did not turn into processes.

Libertines Real and Fictional in Rochester, Shadwell, Wycherley, and Boswell examines the Restoration and eighteenth-century libertine figure as it appears in John Wilmot, Second Earl of Rochester's Satyr against Mankind, "The Maim'd Debauchee," and "Upon His Drinking a Bowl," Thomas Shadwell's The Libertine, William Wycherley's The Country Wife, and James Boswell's London Journal, 1762-1763. I argue that the limitations and self-contradictions of standard definitions of libertinism and the ways in which libertine protagonists and libertinism in general function as critiques of libertinism. Moreover, libertine protagonists and poetic personae reinterpret libertinism to accommodate their personal agendas and in doing so, satirize the idea of libertinism itself and identify the problematization of "libertinism" as a category of gender and social identity. That is, these libertines misinterpret-often deliberately-Hobbes to justify their opposition and refusal to obey social institutions-e.g., eventually marrying and engaging in a monogamous relationship with one's wife-as well as their endorsement of obedience to nature or sense, which can include embracing a libertine lifestyle in which one engages in sexual encounters with multiple partners, refuses marriage, and questions the existence of God or at least distrusts any sort of organized religion. Since any attempts to define the word "libertinism"-or at least any attempts to provide a standard definition of the word-are tenuous at best, it is equally tenuous to suggest that any libertines conform to conventional or standard libertinism. In fact, the literary and "real life" libertines in this study not only fail to conform to such definitions of libertinism, but also reinterpret libertinism. While all these libertines do possess similar characteristics-namely affluence, insatiable sexual appetites, and a rebellion against institutional authorities (the Church, reason, government, family, and marriage)-they often misinterpret libertinism, reason, and Hobbesian philosophy. Furthermore, they all choose different, unique ways to oppose patriarchal, social authorities. These aberrant ways of rebelling against social institutions and their redefinitions of libertinism, I argue, make them self-satirists and self-conscious critics of libertinism as a concept.

This thesis argues that social debt profoundly transformed the environment in which literature was produced and experienced in the early modern period. In each chapter, I examine the various ways in which social debt affected Renaissance writers and the literature they produced. While considering the cultural changes regarding patronage, love, friendship, and debt, I will analyze the poetry and drama of Ben Jonson, Lady Mary Wroth, William Shakespeare, and Thomas Middleton. Each of these writers experiences social debt in a unique and revealing way. Ben Jonson's participation in networks of social debt via poetry allowed him to secure both a livelihood and a place in the Jacobean court through exchanges of poetry and patronage. The issue of social debt pervades both Wroth's life and her writing. Love and debt are intertwined in the actions of her father, the death of her husband, and the themes of her sonnets and pastoral tragicomedy. In Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice (c. 1596), Antonio and Bassanio’s friendship is tested by a burdensome interpersonal debt, which can only be alleviated by an outsider. This indicated the transition from honor-based credit system to an impersonal system of commercial exchange. Middleton’s A Trick to Catch the Old One (1608) examines how those heavily in debt dealt with both the social and legal consequences of defaulting on loans.

L'union des couronnes de Castille et du Portugal sous l'autorité de Philippe II, entre 1580 et 1598, a rencontré un fort mouvement de résistance au sein du royaume lusitanien. Afin de répondre au mécontentement populaire que suscite son couronnement, Philippe II mettra de l'avant de nombreuses stratégies visant le retour à l'état de concorde à l'intérieur du royaume portugais. Ces efforts réconciliateurs viseront à la fois la démonstration de sa force et de sa clémence, son caractère naturellement lusitanien et les bénéfices temporels que comporte une telle union. Malgré ces tentatives réconciliatrices, Philippe II sera constamment confronté à la résistance passive d'une majorité des membres du tiers-état qui ne bénéficie pas des avantages de l'union ibérique, ce qui fragilise son autorité. Durant les dernières années de son règne, le roi tentera donc d'orienter le malaise national vers un ennemi commun, soit l'Angleterre élisabéthaine, afin d'intégrer le Portugal à un projet qui regroupe les valeurs communes des deux royaumes et ainsi favoriser la réconciliation nationale.

‘The Ophelia Versions: Representations of a Dramatic Type from 1600-1633’ interrogates early modern drama’s use of the Ophelia type, which is defined in reference to Hamlet’s Ophelia and the behavioural patterns she exhibits: abandonment, derangement and suicide. Chapter one investigates Shakespeare’s Ophelia in Hamlet, finding that Ophelia is strongly identified with the ballad corpus. I argue that the popular ballad medium that Shakespeare imports into the play via Ophelia is a subversive force that contends with and destabilizes the linear trajectory of Hamlet’s revenge tragedy narrative. The alternative space of Ophelia’s ballad narrative is, however, shut down by her suicide which, I argue, is influenced by the models of classical theatre. This ending conspires with the repressive legal and social restrictions placed upon early modern unmarried women and sets up a dangerous precedent by killing off the unassimilated abandoned woman. Chapter two argues that Shakespeare and Fletcher’s The Two Noble Kinsmen amplifies Ophelia’s folk and ballad associations in their portrayal of the Jailer’s Daughter. Her comedic marital ending is enabled by a collaborative, communal, folk-cure. The play nevertheless registers a proto-feminist awareness of the peculiar losses suffered by early modern women in marriage and this knowledge deeply troubles the Jailer’s Daughter’s happy ending. Chapter three explores the role of Lucibella in The Tragedy of Hoffman arguing that the play is a direct response to Hamlet’s treatment of revenge and that Lucibella is caught up in an authorial project of disambiguation which attempts to return the revenge plot to its morality roots. Chapters four and five explore the narratives of Aspatia in The Maid’s Tragedy and Penthea in The Broken Heart, finding in their very conformism to the behaviours prescribed for them, both by the Ophelia type itself and by early modern society in general, a radical protest against the limitations and repressions of those roles. This thesis is consistently invested in the competing dialectics and authorities of oral and textual mediums in these plays. The Ophelia type, perhaps because of Hamlet’s Ophelia’s identification with the ballad corpus, proves an interesting gauge of each play’s engagement with emergent notions of textual authority in the early modern period.
