William Lovell Finley was an American conservationist active in Oregon and California from 1894 to 1947. He was president of the Oregon Audubon Society and a field representative for the National Audubon Society. He also served as Oregon State Game Warden, State Biologist and as a Commissioner on the Oregon State Fish and Game Commission. He wrote for ornithology journals and popular magazines, was an early wildlife field photographer, and made wildlife films. This thesis examines the Finley's career from 1887 to 1911 to demonstrate how Finley, as a self-taught naturalist, forged a professional identity and became part of a social and professional network of conservationists. Using Finley's correspondence and published pieces the thesis presents a detailed account of his photography partnership with Herman T. Bohlman, a Portland plumber and artist, and of Finley's involvement in three ornithology organizations, the Northwest Ornithology Association, the Cooper Ornithological Club, and the National Audubon Society.

Although Bakunin's 1842 article, "The Reaction in Germany," published in the organ of the Dresden Left Hegelians, Deutsche Jahrbucher, is generally held to be the most radical and eloquent manifesto of Left Hegelianism, the standard historical commentary tends to consider his pre-1842 Russian works as far removed from this revolutionary ideal. Most historians have long failed to discern the logical continuity in Mikhail Bakunin's thought before and after the "pivotal" date of 1840. Indeed, his intellectual development is usually dividied into two distinct, mutually exclusive periods. During the first period, pre-1840, Bakunin is presented as a conservative and a monarchist, dedicated to a spiritual and political compromise with the "rational reality of the Tsarist regime. After his arrival in Berlin in 1840, however, one is suddenly confronted with the political anarchist and instigator of world revolution. However, this abrupt dichotomy which appears in most historical commentaries dealing with Bakunin's writings and activities cannot be maintained. The hypothesis that there even occurred a break in the evolution of Bakunin's thought rests on a misinterpretation of his early Russian Hegelian works. / The goal of this study is to demonstrate that the concern with the practical application of philosophy into a political tool for revolutionary acton forms the central theme of Bakunin's early works; and to show that his Berlin period constitutes the logical continuation of his early theoretical position. In effect, the present study represents a revindication of the young Bakunin and attempts to prove that his Hegelianism was central to the formation of his radical position. At the same time, it situates Russian Left Hegelianism in the mainstream of European radicalism, by showing how the ideas developed by Bakunin were moving in a direction parallel to those of the Young Hegelian movement in Germany.

This thesis reviews the available literature on Pius XII and his relationship with the Third Reich and the atrocities against the Jews during World War II. The types of literature explored in this study are standard texts; histories of the Church; biographies of Pius; available documents and memoirs; and studies of two special topics: The Ardeatine Massacre and the play, The Deputy. The purpose of this bibliographical review is to discern the various attitudes of authors and historians and reveal the diversity of their views stemming from their interpretation of documents and circumstance. Special attention is given the important play, The Deputy, not only as a literary masterpiece, but also as a catalyst in prompting the writing of other books.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306

Thereon, two currents are perceived. The first was marked by a nostalgic bias about the past, being formulated by intellectuals from the region that was turning as Northeast. This group of intellectuals emphasized values and traditions of the agrarian aristocracy of the region that was losing visibility in the political and economic Brazil scene. Already the other current has a more modern and industrial feature, was formed by intellectuals from the Southeast that in detriment of the first, was rising. This group, on the other hand, was intended to give a new face to Brazil and break with the "roots" of our delay that in their view were linked to our agrarian past. This resulted in different perceptions and interpretations of our historical past, and the construction of different profiles to the Brazilian. Accordingly, our work seeks to understand how was produced the writing that silenced the mixed ancestry of Auta de Souza (1876-1901) considering the position that she should occupy in the intellectuals projects who were in charge of forming a memory for our state. Auta as a relevant historical character in this project of potiguares intellectuals, she was raised to the condition of a model woman and elected in the pantheon of the most beloved poets of Rio Grande do Norte, however, to occupy such prestigious position she had her racial ancestry concealed in the writings that these same intellectuals had written about her, what is still spreaded in memory and rituals places of religious and civic features / Na primeira metade do s?culo XX diferentes grupos de intelectuais estiveram engajados na busca de um ideal de brasilidade. Nisso, duas correntes s?o percebidas. A primeira foi marcada por um vi?s saudosista em rela??o ao passado, sendo formulada pelos intelectuais da regi?o que ent?o gestava-se como Nordeste. Esse grupo de intelectuais ressaltava valores e tradi??es da aristocracia agr?ria da regi?o que perdia visibilidade no cen?rio pol?tico e econ?mico do Brasil. J? a outra corrente, de car?ter mais moderno e industrial, foi formada pelos intelectuais da regi?o Sudeste que em detrimento da primeira, estava em ascens?o. Este grupo por sua vez, objetivava dar um novo rosto ao Brasil bem como romper com as ra?zes do nosso atraso que na vis?o deles estavam ligadas ao nosso passado agr?rio. Isso resultou em diferentes percep??es e interpreta??es sobre nosso passado hist?rico, e na constru??o de diferentes perfis para o brasileiro. Nesse sentido, nosso trabalho busca entender como se produziu uma escrita que silenciava a ancestralidade mesti?a de Auta de Souza (1876-1901) haja vista a posi??o que ela deveria ocupar dentro do projeto dos intelectuais que ficaram a cargo da forma??o de uma mem?ria para o nosso estado. Auta enquanto personagem hist?rica relevante nesse projeto dos intelectuais potiguares foi al?ada ? condi??o de mulher modelo e elegida no pante?o das poetas mais amadas do Rio Grande do Norte, todavia, para que pudesse ocupar tal posi??o teve sua ancestralidade racial escamoteada nos escritos que esses mesmos intelectuais fizeram sobre ela, o que, por sua vez, se estendeu em lugares de mem?ria e em rituais de car?ter religioso e c?vico

A análise foi desenvolvida sobre a crítica a três conceitos-processos de Michels: da lei férrea da oligarquia nos partidos políticos, da elite carismática e do conceito de elite política. Para esta pesquisa, foi preciso recuperar as formulações de Michels à luz do seu tempo, refletindo sobre as transformações no pensamento do autor na história política do início do século: da sua crítica à socialdemocracia até o seu apoio ao fascismo. Já em Gramsci, a reconstrução teórica se deu a partir dos Cadernos do Cárcere, principal obra em que o autor desenvolve a crítica a Michels. Esta crítica nunca foi sistematizada e, por isso, foi preciso passar por uma reconstrução dos principais conceitos do comunista italiano buscando clarificar as diferenças. Tanto Michels quanto Gramsci formularam suas ciências políticas sobre a divisão entre dirigente e dirigidos. Mas a construção teórica desta divisão, nestes autores, é oposta. A partir desta divergência foi possível demonstrar que a crítica de Gramsci revela as limitações do texto de Michels. Neste sentido, chegamos à formulação de que o conceito gramsciano de transformismo apareceu como uma superação teórica da oligarquização presente na teoria de Michels / Abstract: This dissertation aimed to discuss Antonio Gramsci's critique to Robert Michels. The analysis was undertaken on the critique to three concept-processes of Michels's: the iron law of oligarchy in political parties, the charismatic elite and the concept of political elite. For this research, it was necessary to recover Michel's formulations in the light of his time, reflecting about the changes in the author's thought in the political history of the beginning of the century: from his critique on the social democracy to his support for the fascism. However, according to Gramsci, the theoretical reconstruction was made from the Prison Notebooks, the main work in which the author develops a critique to Michels. This critique was never systematized and, therefore, it had to undergo a reconstruction of the main concepts of the Italian Communist seeking to clarify the differences. Both Michels and Gramsci formulated their political sciences concerning the division between leader and led. But the theoretical construction of this division, according to these authors, is opposite. From this divergence was possible to demonstrate that Gramsci's critique reveals the limitations of Michels's text. In this sense, we come to a conclusion that the Gramscian concept of transformism emerged as a theoretical overrun oligarchization in Michels's theory / Mestrado / Ciencia Politica / Mestre em Ciência Política

Se, naquele tempo, obteve uma posição privilegiada no "Império das letras", a recepção da elite literária posterior não conservou esse mérito, oferecendo-lhe apenas um profundo silêncio. Na tentativa de resgatar tal personalidade de nosso passado cultural, esse trabalho procura estudar o Cônego Fernandes Pinheiro como crítico literário pioneiro das letras brasileiras, a partir da leitura e análise dos livros mais relevantes dele: o Curso elementar de literatura nacional (1862), as Postilas de Retórica e Poética (1871) e o Resumo de história literária (1873); bem como de seus artigos e ensaios publicados nos principais periódicos românticos. Com isso, pretende-se reavaliar a obra desse importante intelectual oitocentista, posto à margem pelos estudos literários e, assim, contribuir para a historiografia literária do Romantismo brasileiro / Abstract: Pinheiro, J. C. Fernandes (1825-1876) was one of the most succeed inteUectuals in the Brazilian Empire. He dedicated aU his life to the glory of the Brazilian letters, working in many distinguished institutional fields. Although he had got privileged position in the "Empire of Letters ", the same not happened after his death. The posterior literary criticism did not conserve his merit, o.ffering him on/y a deep silence. Trying to rescue such personality of our cultural past, this text intends to study the Pinheiro 's pioneer work, mainly his more important books: Curso elementar de literatura nacional (1862), Postilas de retórica e poética (1871) and Resumo de história literária (1873); and, of course, his essays published in the Romantic national press. Then, it wil/ be possible reevaluate F ernando Pinheiro as a critica I literary pioneer, rank to the edge for literary studies e, thus, to contribute for the our literary historiography / Mestrado / Literatura Brasileira / Mestre em Teoria e História Literária

O texto poético da ópera utiliza quase a totalidade do texto da obra homônima do escritor português Julio Dantas, se caracterizando como um estudo reflexivo sobre a brevidade da vida, sobre o amor e a essência leve e frágil da existência. A partir do estudo da ópera em questão, esta pesquisa intenta resgatar o nome do compositor, prolífico em criações musicais, especialmente na formação para canto e piano, e ainda resgatar a ópera A Ceia dos Cardeais, para que ela esteja disponível para estudos e performance / Abstract: The opera A Ceia dos Cardeais, composed by Arthur Iberê de Lemos (1901 ¿ 1967) premiered in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, in 1963. The poetic text is almost entirely taken from the homonymous literary work of the Portuguese author Julio Dantas. The literary content is characterized as reflexive study of the life¿s brevity, of love, and light and fragile essence of existence. From the study of A Ceia dos Cardeais, this research intends to revive the name of an artist who was very fruitful as a composer, in particular as an art song composer, as well as make his opera A Ceia dos Cardeais available for a performance / Doutorado / Praticas Interpretativas / Doutor em Música
