Um terreno cheio de asperezas : o Cemitério da Matriz de Porto Alegre no cotidiano da cidade (1772-1888)

Meirelles, Pedro von Mengden January 2016 (has links)
Este trabalho tem por objetivo compreender a dinâmica cotidiana desenvolvida no Cemitério da Matriz de Porto Alegre, entre os anos de 1772 e 1850. Defendo nesta dissertação o argumento de que é preciso levar em consideração a gênese e o funcionamento deste espaço para melhor estudar os primeiros anos desta cidade, pois vejo no cemitério um espaço privilegiado de análise do social, embora o mesmo não tenha sido tradicionalmente estudado em trabalhos de história local. Com base em uma ampla e exaustiva análise dos livros de óbito das freguesias que utilizavam aquele cemitério, acompanhei diariamente o uso do mesmo, possibilitando por a prova a aplicação ou não da legislação oriunda do Poder Central desejosa de uma maior regulamentação daquele espaço. No primeiro capítulo abordo duzentos anos de trabalhos e pesquisas históricas a respeito da fundação de Porto Alegre, salientando o caráter religioso dessa fundação. No segundo capítulo, calcado principalmente nos registros de óbito, analiso o cotidiano da principal necrópole da cidade, sua geografia tanatológica, e a distribuição da população em diferentes tipos de sepulturas. No terceiro capítulo, embasado pela bibliografia a respeito das mudanças de mentalidade quanto à morte e o morrer no Ocidente, analiso o descontentamento surgido em meados do século XVIII quanto aos cemitérios eclesiásticos, e seu impacto em Porto Alegre, em princípios do século seguinte. Por fim, em um quarto capítulo que abarca o período de 1865 a 2012, analiso os usos que o espaço no qual estivera o cemitério exerceu após o fechamento, e como os mesmos influíram na construção de uma memória daquele local. A partir desse percurso, pretendi demonstrar que é possível realizar a história social de dada comunidade mesmo a partir de um enfoque, a princípio, sem vida ou sociedade. / This paper aims to understand the daily dinamics developed in the Main Church Graveyard of Porto Alegre, between 1772 and 1850. In this dissertation I advocate that is necessary to understand the genesis and the operation of such place to better comprehend the first years of the city. The reason to such analysis stands in the comprehension of the graveyard as a privileged place to study society, although this point of view isn’t very common among social historians. Based on a wide and exhaustive analysis of the death records of all parishes that used the mentioned graveyard, I have followed the daily pratices in this place, allowing to demonstrate if the legislation deriving from the Crown was or was not applyed. In the first chapter I work with 200 years of researches about the creation of Porto Alegre, stressing the religious ethos of its fundation. In the second chapter, in which the death records will be the main source of analysis, I study the daily routine of Porto Alegre’s main graveyard, its thanatological geography, and the distribuition of the population in several types of graves. In the third chapter, based on the bibliography about the changes of mentality on death and dying in Western civilization, I analysed the emergence of discontent on ecclesiastical graveyards on the first half of XVIII century in Porto Alegre. To conclude, in a fourth chapter, which covers the gap between the years of 1865 and 2012, I analyse the secundary uses of the cemetery, after its shutdown, and how those help in the understanding the way its social memory was built. In this research I have intended to show that it is possible to write the social history of such comunity even through the use of sources that speak more of death than life.

La privation de sépulture au Moyen Âge : l'exemple de la Province ecclésiastique de Bordeaux (Xe-début du XIVe siècles) / Burial deprivation in the Middle Ages. The case of the ecclesiastical province of Bordeaux (10th - early 14th century)

Vivas, Mathieu 24 October 2012 (has links)
À partir du milieu du Xe siècle, conjointement à l'émergence et au développement d'une conscience communautaire, l'Église chrétienne médiévale met en place un cimetière consacré interdit aux « mauvais morts ». Parallèlement, la construction ecclésiale se concrétise par un encadrement plus précis des fidèles (à la fois liturgique, sacramentel et juridique), modifiantainsi le paysage et les pratiques sociales. Dès le XIe siècle, et – plus particulièrement – aux XIIe-XIIIe siècles, les décrétalistes, liturgistes et canonistes, dressent de nombreuses catégories de « mauvais chrétiens » privés de sepultura ecclesiastica, lesquels ont – jusqu'à présent – été considérés par les historiens des textes et les archéologues comme des « exclus ». Si la justice ecclésiastique semble intransigeante au sujet du devenir de certains (à l'instar – notamment – des meurtriers, des incendiaires, des jouteurs et, d'une façon plus générale, des excommuniés), elle envisage néanmoins leur réintégration dans le giron de l'Église. La présente étude, en favorisant une approche transdisciplinaire (sources écrites et archéologiques), se propose de comprendre ces interdictions funéraires, mais également d'appréhender sous un jour nouveau la gestion des espaces cimétériaux et de leurs marges. Si elle tend non seulement à éclairer le devenir des corps privés de sepultura ecclesiastica, elle invite également à discuter la prise en charge des « mauvais morts » par les autorités civiles et laïques. À ce titre, elle incite à concevoir les lieux d'exécution (fourches patibulaires, gibets, etc.) comme une forme à part entière de regroupement des « mauvais morts » / From the mid-10th century, together with the emergency and the development of a community conscientiousness, the medieval Christian Church sets up a consecrated cemetery forbidden to the "bad Dead". At the same time, the landscape and the social practices change due to a better defined guidance of the Faithful on liturgical, sacramental and juridical aspects. From the 11th century and more particularly by the 12th and 13th centuries, the decretalists, liturgists and Canonists list out a number of "bad Christians' " groups deprived of sepultura ecclesiastica, who were previously regarded as "outsiders" by the historians of written sources and the archaeologists. Despite of the ecclesiastical justice being uncompromising regarding the future of murderers, arsonists, jousters, and more generally, those who have been excommunicated, their reintegration within the Church is pondered.This study, promoting a multidisciplinary approach (written and archaeological sources), aims at understanding these funeral bans, as well as assessing in a new light the management of burial areas and their edges. It not only tends to shed light on the future of the bodies deprived of sepultura ecclesiastica, but it also raises the question on assuming the care of the "bad Dead" by the civil and lay/secular authorities. As such, it leads to see the execution areas (patibulary forks, gallows, etc.) as a full-fledged type of gathering the "bad Dead"

Hrob, náhrobek, hřbitov. Okruh motivů v českém malířství 19. století / Grave, Tombstone, Graveyard. The Range of Motifs of the Czech Painting of the 19th Century

Kučerová, Anežka January 2017 (has links)
(in English) This thesis called Grave, Tombstone, Graveyard. The Range of Motifs of the Czech Painting of the 19th Century is based on the analysis of paintings, drawings and graphics made by Czech authors throughout the 19th century. Artists worked with funeral motifs in different ways and these will be presented in different case studies. Some painters were fascinated by these subjects and they turned their attention to them systematically and repeatedly throughout their career. Other artists worked with funeral motifs rarely, although significantly. Artists integrated motifs of graves, monuments and cemeteries to their pieces of art for different purposes; this was connected with the interest of Romanticism in aesthetic anomalies and mystery, with their personal experience and feelings. Artists were also interested in genre scenes that were situated in cemeteries. Funeral motifs can be found in illustrated journals as well. Their aim was to document the specific place and as to symbolically express the finality of the life. The pieces of art will be presented in the context of the burial rites and literature of the 19th century. This phenomenon was also reflected by foreign artists, some of them will be also mentioned in the thesis as an analogy to the Czech works.

Fungerar AHA-metoden för epifytiska lavar och mossor? : En studie av naturvärdesindikatorer hos träd i park- och kyrkliga kulturmiljöer / Does the AHA method work for epiphytic lichens and mosses? : A study of nature value indicators of trees in park and church cultural environments

Alkufai, Meysah January 2021 (has links)
Gamla träd i kulturmiljöer uppmärksammas alltmer inom naturvården på grund av sina höga naturvärden och är viktiga som värdar för fortlevnaden av hotade och sällsynta växt- och djurarter. Studiens syfte var att undersöka om Sörenssons AHA-metod (framtagen för vedlevande insekter) fungerar också på mossor och lavar, samt att jämföra två kulturmiljöer med gamla träd. Inventeringen utfördes i Kristianstad och omfattade totalt 443 träd; 230 i Tivoliparken och 213 på Östra begravningsplatsen. Träden bedömdes utifrån olika karaktärer: förekomst av håligheter, barklösa partier, grenhål, savflöde samt svamppåväxt. Förekomsten av dessa användes sedan för att dela in träden i fem olika klasser av varierande värde för naturvården. Även kryptogamer inventerades; dels förutbestämda lavar och mossor som signalerar höga naturvärden, dels en enkel bedömning av det totala antalet triviala arter på varje träd. Träden i Tivoliparken hade större spridning mellan AHA-klasserna. Här hamnade 56 träd i de högsta värdeklasserna (klass I och II-träd), 114 i värdeklass III och 60 som resursträd. På Östra begravningsplatsen hamnade hälften av träden i de högsta värdeklasserna och 93 i värdeklass III. De resterade träden klassades som resursträd. Totalt gjordes 89fynd av 6 signalarter på de inventerade träden, samt en vedsvamp. Dessa fynd gjordes både på träd med höga och låga värden enligt AHA-metoden. AHA-klasser med högre naturvärde hade lägre artrikedom för samtliga träd sammanslagna, men inget samband för enbart trädslagen bok och lind. Endast hälften av träden med signalarter fick hög AHA-klassning. Resultatet antyder att AHA-metoden inte fungerar på kryptogamer som den gör för vedlevande insekter. / Old trees in cultural environments are receiving increasing attention in nature conservation due to their high conservation values and provide important habitat for endangered plant and animal species. The purposes of the study were to investigate whether Sörensson's AHA-method is applicable also to mosses and lichens, as well as to compare two environments with old trees. 443 trees were inventoried in Kristianstad, of which 230 in Tivoliparken and 213 in Östra begravningsplatsen. The trees were assessed based on the occurrence of: cavities, barkless areas, and so on. These findings were used to assign each tree to the five AHA classes of varying conservation value. Trees were also searched for predetermined lichens and mosses signalling high conservation value, and a simple count was made of the total number of trivial cryptogam species on each tree. Tivoliparken had a wider scatter of trees among the AHA classes; 56 in the highest value classes (class I and II), 114 in class III, and 60 as resource trees. At Östra begravningsplatsen, half of the oldest trees were in the two highest value classes and 93 in class III. The remaining trees ended up as resource trees. In total, 89 records of 6 signal species were made, and one wood fungus. There was a significant association between AHA class and richness of trivial species when trees of all species were pooled, but no association when beech and linden were assessed separately. These results suggest that the AHA method does not work on cryptogams.

Unlocking your digital legacy : A perspective on immortality through our digital traces

Rapakoulia, Klio January 2019 (has links)
Every day, we use technology. Online interactions leave traces and traces serves as portals into different aspects of our personalities, or how we want to be perceived by others. We are encouraged to record and express everything, from our most important moments to the least. However, the digital tools we use privilege only the moment, not the long term. They also tend to make everything feel equally important, thus giving us no incentive to go through our digital traces and decide what has lasting meaning and should be preserved and what we would like to be forgotten.The fabric of our lives is intertwined with our digital traces. What happens to them after the end of our lives? Just as our physical things live on past us, sometimes becoming a part of the lives of our family and friends this will surely be true for our data.How might we curate our digital legacy?

Les fondements du droit des sépultures / Foundations of the right of burials

Gailliard, Ariane 10 December 2015 (has links)
La sépulture est souvent appréhendée à titre d’exception ou par une superposition de notions : copropriété familiale, bien familial, chose hors commerce, indivision perpétuelle, droit réel spécial... Cette approche disparate dissimule l’existence d’un droit des sépultures qui peine, en conséquence, à constituer un droit unifié. Le droit des sépultures se trouve fractionné en plusieurs branches : droit civil, droit pénal et droit public. A travers elles, apparaissent de nombreuses problématiques, liées à la nature et au régime proposés. Pour ces raisons, il est nécessaire d’aborder le droit des sépultures par la recherche de ses fondements, inchangés depuis le droit romain et le droit médiéval. Le premier fondement est le sacré ; le second la communauté. Tous deux prennent leur source dans l’histoire du droit et continuent d’exister dans le droit positif. Ils font apparaître une unité du droit des sépultures, autour d’une double fonction : assurer la séparation du mort et du vivant et perpétuer le culte des morts. Du point de vue anthropologique, le sacré, premier fondement, se distingue du religieux, et se manifeste selon deux opérations : la délimitation d’une frontière entre sacré et profane par la séparation, puis la protection de ce nouvel espace délimité par la répression de toute atteinte. Pour les sépultures, ces deux opérations sont effectuées respectivement par l’extracommercialité et par la protection pénale. Le premier mécanisme est issu du droit romain et montre une protection originale de la sépulture ; toute activité juridique qui n’est pas incompatible avec le respect des morts est autorisée. L’autre mécanisme concerne l’incrimination de violation de sépulture, qui perpétue sa dimension sacrée. Le second fondement est communautaire : il est apparu pour les sépultures de famille avec les communautés médiévales, à une époque où les biens et les personnes étaient soudés en un groupe familial unique. Désormais adapté par l’affectation familiale, un tel fondement se maintient dans notre droit avec un régime de propriété collective, à travers la transmission successorale restreinte au groupe familial et un principe égalitaire, ce qui fait de la sépulture une véritable propriété communautaire. Bien sacré, propriété communautaire, les fondements des sépultures mettent en exergue des dimensions originales de la propriété. / Burials are often considered in terms of acceptions or superimpositions of notions: family co-ownership, family property, off-trade affairs, joint possession, specific real right… This multi-entry approach conceals the existence of a right of burial which, as a consequence, is difficult to define as a unified right. The right of burial is divided up into various branches— civil law, criminal law, public law—which rise various questions linked to the very nature if the different systems. For this reason, it is necessary to tackle the right of burial from the point of view of its foundations, which have not changed since the establishment of Roman law and Medieval law.The first founding principle concerns the sacred; the second is about the community. Both originate in legal history and are still valid in the field of positive law. They show a unity in the right of burial as regards two main functions: ensure the separation between the living and the dead and keep up the traditional practice of ancestor worship. From the anthropological viewpoint, the sacred—the first principle—distinguishes from the religious, and is expressed in two main missions: the definition of a frontier between the sacred and the profane by the separation, then the protection of this new space delineated by the suppression of any violation. For the burials, these two missions are respectively accomplished by a position out of commerce and by the criminal procedure. The first mechanism comes from Roman law and shows an original protection of the burial process; every legal activity which is not incompatible with the respect of the dead is allowed. The other mechanism concerns the incrimination of the violation of the burial process and its sacred nature. The second founding principle is about the community: it was created for family burials by medieval communities, at a time when properties and people were seen as a unique family unit. Nowadays adapted by the family affectation, such a principle is maintained in our legal system because of a collective ownership regime, through the transmission of the succession restricted to the family and an egalitarian principle, which turn burials into a property of the community. Sacred property, property of the community, the founding principles of burials bring to light specific dimensions of the concept of property.

Náhrobní mříž v českých zemích v období raného novověku. Mříž a hrobový prostor 1550-1740 / Sepulchral Ironwork in Early Modern Bohemia. Ironwork and Sepulchral Environment between 1550-1740

Gandalovičová, Šárka January 2015 (has links)
The text deals with various types of ironwork from ca 1550-1740, which we can encounter in sepulchral spaces in Bohemia. The text includes notable examples of individual types of ironwork related to sepulchral monuments in Bohemia and even Central Europe, especially when the works were inspired by Bohemian examples. The main research subject matter of the dissertation is a typological group of ironwork that defined the space around a tombstone or mausoleum freely situated in a sacred environment, e.g. the most important cited work - the ironwork surrounding the Royal Mausoleum in Prague, or the ironwork surrounding the Cenotaph of Maxmilian I located in the Court Church of Innsbruck. Other types of ironwork related to sepulchral monuments are mentioned complementarily, such as ironwork closing off interior chapels, freely standing ironwork, and ironwork protecting sepulchral niches.

Translation or rewriting of proper names : A study of children’s literature across a century / Översätting eller omskrivning av egennamn : En studie på barnlitteratur under ett sekel

Sand, Veronica January 2021 (has links)
The translation of names is a topic for discussion within many fields, no less so within translation studies. Furthermore, the translation of proper names in children’s literature is a topic with on-going changes. There is a divide between those who believe that the names should be translated into proper cultural equivalent and those who believe it is time to have faith in children being able to handle foreign names. That is what this study will focus on. Approx. 15 names from seven children’s books from 1865 to 2011 were studied to conclude that there seems to be a greater faith in children’s ability to handle foreign names. Three languages were compared English, Spanish, and Swedish with the majority of the 337 names studied being kept in their original format, with spelling intact. / Översättningen av namn är ett diskussionsämne inom många områden, inte minst inom översättningsstudier. Utöver detta är översättningen av egennamn inom barnlitteratur ett ämne som är under ständig förändring. Det finns en klyfta mellan de som menar att namn borde bli översatta till sin kulturella likvärdighet och de som menar att det är på tiden att lita på att barn kan hantera främmande namn. Det är denna diskussion som kommer vara fokus för denna uppsatsen. Ca. 15 namn från sju barnböcker från 1865 till 2011 studerades för att visa att det verkar finnas en större tilltro till barns förmåga att hantera främmande namn. Tre språk jämfördes, engelska, spanska och svenska. Var utav de 337 namnen som studerades var majoriteten oförändrade i översättningarna.
