Pese a que la naturaleza épica de Contra Symmachum no resulta explícita en el poema (de hecho, algunas de sus particularidades, como el título, la estructura, el metro y el tema hacen difícil establecer inequívocamente su género), la hipótesis aquí propuesta consiste en interpretar su naturaleza épica como el resultado de un doble objetivo estratégico. Sostenemos que Prudencio pretende exaltar la victoria de la fe cristiana sobre los antiguos cultos paganos, y al mismo tiempo, desea para su obra una dignidad poética equiparable con la atribuida a la poesía épica clásica. Nuestras conclusiones demostrarán la pertenencia de Contra Symmachum a dicho género literario no solo por estar escrito en hexámetros, abordar un tema histórico y tener un propósito didáctico; sino también –y particularmente– como resultado de las distintas transformaciones, asimilaciones y conversiones consideradas imperativas por Prudencio para revitalizar la relación entre el género épico y la retórica epidíctica, polemizar con la antigua literatura pagana y, a su vez, establecer la supremacía del cristianismo sobre las habilidades oratorias de Quinto Aurelio Símaco y sus palabras. / Notwithstanding Contra Symmachum’ s epic nature is not made explicit in the poem (in fact, some of its particularities –like title, structure, meter and theme– make difficult to unequivocally establish its genre), the hypothesis here proposed is to present its epic nature as a result of a double strategic goal. We sustain Prudentius aims to exalt the victory of Christian faith over ancient pagan cults, and at the same time, that he also wants his poem to achive a poetic dignity similar to the one of classical epic poetry. Our conclusions will show that Contra Symmachum belong to that literary genre because it is written in hexameters, it addresses a historical topic, and has a didactic purpose; but also –and particularly– as a result of different transformations, assimilations and conversions considered imperative by Prudentius in order to revitalize the relationship between epic genre and epideictic rhetoric, to polemicize with ancient pagan poetry and, in turn, to establish Christianity’ supremacy over Quintus Aurelius Symmachus’s oratory skills and his words.

La thèse propose l’analyse d’un ensemble d’œuvres péruviennes écrites pendant l’époque moderniste que nous situons de 1880 à 1920. Notre recherche est centrée sur la prose de Manuel Gonzalez Prada (1844-1918), Clemente Palma (1872-1946) et Ventura García Calderón (1886-1959). Nous nous efforçons de définir les modalités narratives propres au modernisme, les spécificités des formes brèves, les nouvelles, les essais et les chroniques littéraires, tous ces types de récit qui furent très répandus dans la presse péruvienne. Dans un premier temps, nous analysons la validité d’un discours de la modernité et ses liens avec le discours du modernisme en ce qui concerne la littérature péruvienne. Le corpus est varié aussi bien pour sa thématique que du point de vue formel. Nous nous interrogeons sur le rôle de la critique littéraire péruvienne qui a eu tendance à minimiser l’importance de la prose moderniste, en la considérant comme esthétisante et superficielle. Dans un deuxième temps, nous essayons de caractériser la prose brève : l’essai, la nouvelle et la chronique, comme dépendant étroitement du développement de la presse latino-américaine. La presse continentale a été le moyen de transférer les modèles de la modernité nés en Europe. Enfin, dans la troisième partie, nous analysons les textes de González Prada, de Palma et de García Calderón, en relevant les leitmotivs présents dans les nouvelles et les chroniques, les thèmes de la maladie, la ville et sa modernisation, la femme fatale, allégorie d’une modernité qui se distingue par ses paradoxes et insatisfactions. / This dissertation analyzes a corpus of texts from Peru written in the period of Modernism (1880-1920). This research examined the prose of authors Manuel González Prada (1844-1918), Clemente Palma (1872-1946), and Ventura García Calderón (1886-1959). It investigates the modalities particular to literary Modernism and how they adapted their vision to the shorter prose genres - the short story, the essay, and literary crónica - highly diffused through the Peruvian press. In this way, the first section of this work explores the necessity (appropriateness) of a modern discourse in this period and its relation to Peruvian modernista literature. Thus, this study will present the diversity of topics and the range of forms inherent to modernista prose, as well as bring into question the role of Peruvian literary criticism who tended to derogate it as aestheticizing and superficial. The second section is focused on the characteristics of the brief narratives: short stories, essays, and literary chronicle, as essential genres in the development of the Latin American press within a society preoccupied with incorporating the models of modernity arriving from Europe. The third and final section is dedicated to the analysis of works from González Prada, Palma, and García Calderón. It highlights the various leitmotifs employed, primarily in the short story, including disease, urban life and its modernization, and the femme fatale as an allegory for a modernity ripe with paradox and dissatisfaction.

La presente investigación se concentra en el análisis de los cuentos “Un paseo extraño”, “El príncipe alacrán” y “Leyenda de haschisch” contenidos en Cuentos malévolos (1913) de Clemente Palma, ello a partir de los postulados sobre el olor que establece Alain Corbin, la concepción de las excretas de Dominique Laporte, la existencia de lo abyecto en Julia Kristeva y la concepción de la sífilis según Susan Sontag. El objetivo es demostrar que Clemente Palma construye un imaginario basado en la morbidez a partir de los lineamientos del decadentismo que se concentran en la recreación de la enfermedad y la putrefacción. Precisamente, Clemente Palma recrea un universo donde lo personajes van en contracorriente de los imperativos higienistas de la época: los personajes se regodean en las alcantarillas y se exalta la figura de la amada sifilítica. Inclusive, al comparar las imágenes mórbidas de Palma con las de autores como Joris Karl- Huysmans, entendemos que este se apropia de un carácter mucho más transgresor en cuanto a la enfermedad, esto sucede posiblemente por la particularidad de la sífilis y el problema del alcantarillado en Lima durante fines del XIX e inicios del XX, dado que los reclamos higienistas se concentraban en torno a la insuficiencia del agua, la generación de ríos miasmáticos y la dualidad de la fémina sifilítica: en Europa, por ejemplo, la prostituta es el agente del mal, mientras que el discurso médico peruano incide en que la enfermedad se posa en el cuerpo de la esposa blanca y esto representa un peligro para la nación emergente americana. En conclusión, Clemente Palma erige su propuesta literaria, concentrada en los cuentos referidos, sobre la base del decadentismo artístico francés y las teorías médicas de la época. / Tesis

This dissertation examines the Catholic Church’s response to the mid-nineteenth century Mexican liberal Reforma through a study of the life and work of Bishop Clemente de Jesús Munguía (1810-1868), one of the most influential yet least-known ecclesiastical intellectuals of the period. A lawyer by profession, Clemente Munguía was first professor and then rector of the Morelia diocesan seminary, where he undertook a major reform of the school’s curriculum and also composed several textbooks on a variety of subjects, including grammar, literature, rhetoric, philosophy, theology, and law. Appointed Bishop of Michoacán in October 1850, Munguía distinguished himself for his staunch opposition to the state’s encroachment on the Church, as well as for his insistence on the need for religious intolerance in what he imagined as an “exclusively Catholic” nation. His protests against the 1857 Constitution and the liberal legislation enacted by President Ignacio Comonfort were a key factor in the outbreak of the Civil War of the Reform (1858-1860) and the subsequent French intervention (1862-1867), which resulted in the separation of Church and state and the collapse of Mexican conservatism. Unlike previous studies, this dissertation argues that Bishop Munguía’s opposition to the Reforma derived not from a blind “reactionary” intransigence, but instead from his desire to emancipate the Church from the subordinate status it had under the colonial ancien régime. Far from the stereotype of a backward and parochial intellectual, Munguía was a sophisticated scholar who sought to reconcile Catholicism with the larger currents of thought of the Atlantic Republic of letters. Indeed, he believed that the liberal revolution should be countered “with its own weapons,” a conviction which first led him to frame the defense of ecclesiastical prerogatives in the language of modern natural law, and then to claim for the Church the very power of constitutional interpretation. Although Munguía’s ideal of a “Catholic republic” became unfeasible after the liberals’ final victory in 1867, his efforts at consolidating ecclesiastical independence paved the way for both the Romanization and the social activism that characterized the Mexican Church during the latter half of the nineteenth century. / text

Esta dissertação trata do processo de mistificação do empreendedorismo como expressão de regionalidade da Região Colonial Italiana (RCI), que tem como agentes discursivos historiadores, poder público, entidades de classe e empresários. A partir da análise da historiografia econômica regional e da biografia do seu maior símbolo empresarial, Abramo Eberle, objetiva-se identificar as relações entre essa narrativa histórica e a ficcional na trajetória empreendedora da família Gardone, presente na trilogia da imigração A Cocanha, O Quatrilho e A Babilônia, de José Clemente Pozenato. Dessa forma, este estudo procura discutir o empreendedorismo como manifestação de regionalidade, a qual passa pelo discurso mítico fundamentado nos conceitos de Mircea Eliade, e identificar como a lógica dos personagens e sua teia de valores morais representam os princípios tradicionais do modelo empreededor. / Submitted by cmquadros@ucs.br (cmquadros@ucs.br) on 2018-04-03T12:46:13Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Charle Tonet.pdf: 757594 bytes, checksum: fd81c3623870a0882735f6a6a1393c24 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2018-04-03T12:46:13Z (GMT).

Based on the analysis of the regional economic historiography and on its major business symbol, Abramo Eberle, the purpose is to identify the connections between this historical narrative and the fictional one in the Gardone family’s entrepreneurial trail, present in the immigration trilogy: A Cocanha, O Quatrilho and A Babilônia, by José Clemente Pozenato. Therefore, this project aims to discuss the entrepreneurship as a regionality manifestation, which examines the mythical speech based on Mircea Eliade’s concepts and to identify how the characters’ logic and its range of moral values represent the traditional principals of the entrepreneurial model.

O presente trabalho trata de alguns temas do debate jurídico da primeira metade do século XIX. Estes temas são analisados a partir da participação do magistrado e político José Clemente Pereira. É o momento do esforço de criação de uma legislação nacional, necessária em decorrência do rompimento dos laços com Portugal. Nascido em Portugal em 1787, formado em Coimbra, Clemente Pereira imigrou para o Brasil em 1815. Rapidamente ascendeu nos negócios e na carreira política, participando das articulações que levaram à independência e se tornando muito influente na capital fluminense em razão de negócios no mercado de gêneros de abastecimento e de sua atuação como advogado dos grandes comerciantes da Corte. Foi juiz de fora, deputado geral, ministro do império, da guerra e da marinha, senador, conselheiro de estado e presidente do primeiro Tribunal do Comércio do Brasil. A partir dessas posições participou e influenciou vários debates sobre temas políticos e jurídicos, entre os quais escolhemos três: a criação da lei de responsabilidade dos ministros de Estado, de 1827; os debates sobre o Código Criminal do Império, criado em 1830, e do Código Comercial, de 1850. Os debates mostram os desafios que estavam colocados para a formação do Estado e da nação brasileiros, num contexto de transformação do direito representado pelo moderno ideário de codificação, e mudanças na política, com a crescente centralização do poder monárquico, mas também com sua limitação a partir do advento do constitucionalismo. / This paper aims at discussing some aspects of the legal debate that took place during the first half of the XIXth Century. Said aspects are assessed from the moment Justice and Politician José Clemente Pereira appears in the public scenario. It is the moment when strengths are gathered to create a national legislation, then mandatory due to the rupture of bonds with Portugal. Born in Portugal in 1787, graduate at the University of Coimbra, Clemente Pereira immigrated to Brazil in 1815. He rapidly gained importance as a businessman and as a politician, taking part in the discussions that lead to the Independence and becoming quite influential in the Court due to his business and his work as an attorney for major traders. He was a judge, congressman, a ministry of the Empire, of War and Navy, a Senator, a State Counselor, and the Chairman of the first Board of Trade of Brazil. After occupying the afore mentioned positions, he acted as an influential player in several debates about legal and political matters, among which we chose three: the creation of the act of liability for ministries of State of 1827; the debates on the Criminal Code of the Empire, created in 1830, and of the Commercial Code of 1850. The debates show the challenges that were set for the establishment of the Brazilian State and Nation, in a context of transformation of the Law represented by the modern set of codification ideas and changes in politics, with the growing centralization of monarchical power, but also with its limitation, starting with the onset of constitutionalism.
