Entre nobres lusitanos e titulados brasileiros: práticas, políticas e significados dos títulos nobiliárquicos entre o Período Joanino e o alvorecer do Segundo Reinado / Among noble Lusitanians and Brazilian titles: practices, policies and meanings of nobility titles between the Johannine period and the dawn of the Second Reign

Oliveira, Marina Garcia de 17 October 2013 (has links)
Esta dissertação se propõe a analisar o significado político da concessão de títulos de nobreza no Brasil, de 1808 a 1840, compreendendo, portanto, tanto o período em que o Brasil fazia parte do império português, quanto o Primeiro Reinado e o Período Regencial. Dá-se especial ênfase à estratégia política que norteou as concessões de títulos por d. João e d. Pedro I, incluindo os critérios utilizados por cada um dos monarcas, as características dos títulos concedidos, bem como as pessoas que foram nobilitadas em cada um dos reinados. Desta forma, busca-se evidenciar os diferentes critérios que nortearam as concessões feitas por pai e filho, respondendo, por um lado, a expectativas distintas por parte dos agraciados, e, por outro, a diferentes conjunturas políticas que demandavam a construção de redes de apoio ao monarca em momentos muito específicos. Finalmente, se, de fato, a nobreza se manteve por todo o Império brasileiro, sua permanência, bem como a continuidade, ou não, de outras práticas e instituições até então usuais e a ela direta ou indiretamente vinculadas (algumas delas claramente heranças de Antigo Regime), foram intensamente debatidas durante o Período Regencial. Assim, depois das reformas efetuadas após a abdicação, quando da ascensão do segundo monarca, os títulos continuaram a ser distribuídos, mas, doravante, seguindo expressamente o espírito da Constituição. / This thesis intends to analyze the political meaning of the concession of nobility titles in Brazil, from 1808 to 1840, comprising, thus, both the period during which Brazil was part of the Portuguese Empire as well as the First Reign and the Regency Period. Special emphasis is given to the political strategy that informed the concession of titles by d. João and d. Pedro I, including the criteria employed by each monarch, the characteristics of the titles conceded, as well as the people who were ennobled in each of the reigns. Thereby, the different criteria, which guided the concessions made by father and son, are carefully dealt with, responding, on one hand, to distinct expectations by those bestowed with a title and, on the other hand, to different political situations which demanded the formation of alliances in order to support the monarch in very specific moments. Ultimately, if, in fact, there was a nobility throughout the whole Brazilian Empire, its endurance, as well as the continuity or discontinuity of other customary practices and institutions directly (or indirectly) related to the nobility (some of which were clearly heritages of the Ancien Regime) were fiercely questioned and discussed during the Regency Period. Therefore, following the reforms made after the abdication, upon the rise of the second monarch, the titles kept being distributed, though, hereafter, according explicitly to the spirit of the Constitution.

Die hoch- und spätmittelalterlichen Burgen und Adelssitze in der Uckermark, Land Brandenburg

Schütz, Antonia 13 February 2008 (has links)
Die Studie beschäftigt sich mit der Entstehung und Entwicklung der Burgen und Herrensitze in der Uckermark vom späten 12. bis zum 15. Jahrhundert. Archäologische Befunde und Funde deuten darauf hin, dass besonders zu Beginn des mittelalterlichen Landesausbaus frühdeutsche Anlagen auf den vorhandenen slawischen Burgen errichtet worden sind. Im Verlauf des 13. und frühen 14. Jahrhunderts kam eine Vielzahl von Neugründungen hinzu. Besonders die landesherrlichen und hochadligen Burgen in Grenzregionen sowie an wichtigen Pässen erfuhren im 14. und 15. Jahrhundert vielfältige Um- und Ausbauten. Im Inland führte dagegen die einsetzende Wüstungsperiode zum Untergang vieler Adelssitze. Sie verfielen oder wurden von neuzeitlichen Schloss- oder Rittergutskomplexen überprägt. Hauptgegenstand der Studie sind die herrschaftlichen Anlagen selbst, als Ruine, integriert in spätere Gebäude oder als archäologisches Bodendenkmal. Erstmalig erfolgte für die Uckermark eine flächendeckende Bestandsaufnahme von archäologisch-bauhistorischer Seite, ergänzt durch historische sowie historisch-geographische Quellen. Dabei wurden ca. 250 Orte ermittelt, für welche die Existenz einer mittelalterlichen Burg oder eines Adelssitzes belegt bzw. zu vermuten ist. Nur wenige sind heute noch anhand ihrer oberirdischen Bausubstanz eindeutig als mittelalterliche Befestigung zu identifizieren. Auf viele verweisen im Gelände lediglich fragmentarische Steinbaureste, Erdwälle, Gräben oder kleine Hügel. Ein Großteil ist aufgrund des vollständigen Verfalls oder der Überprägung durch spätere Gebäude bisher überhaupt nicht lokalisiert. Vor dem Hintergrund des aktuellen Forschungsstandes werden erste typologische Vergleiche der Anlagen hinsichtlich ihrer Lage, Größe, Datierung, ihres Ausbaugrades sowie ihrer historischen Funktion vorgenommen. Untersucht werden außerdem die Beziehung zu den slawischen Burgwällen und die Siedlungskontinuität vom mittelalterlichen Adelssitz zum neuzeitlichen Schloss- oder Rittergutskomplex. / The aim of this study is to examine the formation and development of the castle complexes and nobility residences in the Uckermark from the late 12th to the end of the 15th century. Archaeological finds indicate that especially at the beginning of the medieval eastward expansion they were erected on Slavic strongholds. During the 13th and the early 14th century a lot of new castles and mansions were built. Especially the fortresses in the frontier districts and at important passes were being extended during the 14th and 15th century. In the inland regions the process of desertion led to the abandonment of many of the nobility residences. They began to fall into disrepair and were partially replaced by modern age domain and palace complexes. The main subjects of this study are the medieval buildings in form of ruins, integrated in later buildings and as archaeological site, respectively. This is the first ever complete regional inventory of the medieval castles and nobility residences of the Uckermark. It is mainly based on archaeological and architectural data, and made complete with historical and geographical facts. Almost 250 towns and villages were traced where the existence of a medieval castle or a residence is verified or presumed. Nowadays, only few of the former residences and fortresses can clearly be identified as such on the basis of the remains of above ground buildings and fortifications or by surface features like stone walls, earthworks or moats. Most of them are completely buried under earth, or replaced by manor houses and palace complexes of a later period. Surveying the present state of castle-studies in Brandenburg, the castles and nobility residences where compared with regard to their extent, morphology and ground-plan, internal building chronology and changing of their historical functions. Moreover, the connection with older Slavic strongholds and the continuity from medieval strongholds to modern age castle complexes or manor houses are investigated.

O mundo como herança: a sociedade dos nobres fidalgos de Espanha (s. XIII-XV) / The world as an inheritage: the society of the Nobleman of Spain. (13th-15th).

Accorsi Junior, Paulo 20 March 2018 (has links)
Os primeiros estudos dedicados ao texto Livro de Linhagens do Conde D. Pedro de Barcelos definiram-se exclusivamente pelo interesse nas narrativas nele contidas. A restante matéria de que se compunha foi, assim, relegada ao estatuto de matéria genealógica, e, como tal, desprovida de interesse literário. Numa perspectiva distinta, o objetivo deste trabalho é tomar esta obra compilada pelo filho bastardo do rei D. Dinis de Portugal (1279-1325) em sua unidade enquanto discurso. Atendendo a apelos de medievalistas quanto à necessidade de se entrar em linha de conta com seu conteúdo ideológico, com seu sentido como obra de arte e suas relações com o contexto histórico social da crise de meados do século XIV, a pesquisa aponta como ponto de partida de suas possibilidades de emergência como texto, o vigoroso processo de senhorialização da sociedade portuguesa que teve início em meados do século XIII. O que não se fez sem que resistências surgissem no campo cultural. O Livro de Linhagens do Conde D. Pedro é reconhecido por sua pujança ímpar em relação a obras do gênero no panorama europeu, em especial, hispânico. A metodologia aplicada à análise do texto inspira-se em diretrizes estabelecidas pelas chamadas análises de conteúdo; principalmente pela de uma Semiótica narrativa e discursiva, privilegiando as relações entre texto e contexto. O trabalho busca demonstrar que esta obra é expressão da atualização do que os estudos de André Heusler e André Jolles definiram como saga, que tomamos como uma forma simples, cuja memória alimentou a produção textual promovida pelo processo de introdução da escritura cristã no Ocidente, que se estima situado entre anos 1150 e 1350. Igualmente, é nosso propósito demonstrar, através de um contraponto, que os primeiros textos literários da chamada prosa de Avis, do início do século XV, emergem como um projeto discursivo de redefinição do universo axiológico com que o texto do Livro de Linhagens constrói a visão de mundo de uma nobreza feudal tradicional. Assim, adapta seus valores e códigos de conduta ao exigido pela necessidade de incorporação de atores sociais emergentes no trânsito dos finais da Idade Média para os inícios da chamada Idade Moderna. / The first studies dedicated to the Book of Lineages from the Count D. Pedro de Barcelos were defined exclusively by the interest in the narratives that it contains. The other components of this book were relegated as genealogical subject, and, like that, destitute of literary interest. From a distinct perspective, this study aims to analyse the work compiled by the bastard son of the king D. Dinis (1279-325) from Portugal in its unity as a discourse. This research indicates the strong process of seigniorage of Portuguese society, occurred in the middle of 13th century, as the start point of the books emergency as a text. This process brought up resistances in the cultural field. The Counts D. Pedro Book of Lineages is recognized its unique relevance in relation to the other works of the same genre which emerged in Europe, especially, at Spain. The methodology applied to the present analysis is inspired in the propositions from the field of narrative and discursive semiotics. It privileges the relations between text and context and demonstrates that the book studied here is the expression of the update of the concept of saga, defined by the reflections of André Heusler and André Jolles. We understand this term as a simple form, whose memories fed the textual production resulted from the process of the introduction of the Christian writing in the West, between 1150 and 1350. We also want to demonstrate that the first literary texts from the Avis prose arise as a discursive project, which aims to redefine the axiological universe with which the Book of Lineages constructs the worlds vision of traditional feudal nobility. This book adapts its values and codes of conduct as it is required by the necessity of the incorporation of emergent social actors in the traffic from the middle Ages end to the beginning of the Modern Era.

Entre \'grandes\' e titulares: os padrões de nobilitação no Segundo Reinado / Between peers and titleholders: patterns of ennoblement during the Brazilian Empire (1840-1889)

A presente dissertação pretende apresentar uma análise quantitativa dos títulos de nobreza que foram concedidos ao longo do Segundo Reinado do Império do Brasil (1840 e 1889). Tal análise tem como objetivo compreender quantos e quais títulos de nobreza foram ofertados, por décadas, para províncias específicas, a saber, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Bahia, Pernambuco e Rio Grande do Sul, de modo a perceber de que maneira o imperador se relacionava com a nobilitação de figuras provinciais, e se houve alguma província que se destacou e em qual período isso ocorreu. Além disso, classificamos as diversas razões que justificaram as 1.133 concessões de títulos de nobreza, alcançando 19 justificativas diferentes, com o propósito de entender qual o perfil dos nobilitados em cada uma das décadas do Segundo Reinado e se houve uma preocupação da parte do imperador em nobilitar ocupações semelhantes com títulos semelhantes ou de mesma hierarquia. Finalmente, de posse de tais dados, foi possível perceber que a distribuição de títulos por províncias não foi feita de modo equânime (ao longo do tempo), e que tampouco as várias ocupações possíveis tinham o mesmo peso. / The present thesis presents a quantitative analysis of all nobility titles granted during Brazils Second Reign (1840-1889). By doing so, a regional quantification, according to different provinces, specially those of Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Bahia, Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Sul, was made in order to allow a more proper analyses of the emperors politics and what it meat in terms of political prominence. Besides that, all titles were duly related to the reasons that possibly impelled the government to grant such distinctions. All 1.133 honors ant titles, granted along the Second Reign, were accounted for. Finally, an effort was made in order to stables some kind of pattern regarding honors and titles granted, although such patterns are neither common to all regions (along all five decades that were accounted for), nor to different occupations held by those who were entitled.

Decline and fall : the earls and earldom of Mar c.1281-1513

Jack, Katy Samantha January 2016 (has links)
The subject of this study is the earls and earldom of Mar c.1281-1513. Chapter 1 provides a description and analysis of the internal structure and administration of Mar, detailing the lands contained within each of Mar’s lordships and their respective caputs. This is supplemented by a breakdown of the Mar rental yields between 1435 and 1565, sourced from various accounts contained within the Exchequer Rolls. Chapter 2 charts the political development of the early earls and earldom of Mar between c.1281 and 1388. It is argued that the earldom suffered from extended periods of absentee lordship, instigating a decline in the earldom’s fortunes and importance, only interrupted by a brief revival between 1388 and 1435. Chapter 3 is concerned with the fortunes of Mar under the control of Mar’s only female countess to rule in her own right, Isabella Douglas, sister of James Douglas, 2nd earl of Douglas and Mar. The chapter draws particular attention to her attempts to consolidate her authority in the wake of debates surrounding the Douglas inheritance after 1388, and her response to Albany Stewart interference in her earldom between 1402 and 1404. In doing so, it presents an alternative interpretation of Countess Isabella’s role in the coup of 1404 led by Alexander Stewart, son of Alexander Stewart lord of Badenoch. This chapter also explores the issue of female authority, and argues that the proactive policies of Countess Isabella have been largely ignored in the historiography of the period. Chapter 4 provides an assessment of the earls and earldom of Mar from 1435-1513. Building on the examination of the career of Alexander Stewart, earl of Mar contained in chapter 3, this chapter explores the political ramifications of his death and the attempts by both the Erskines and the Lyles to secure their Mar inheritance. Their decision to court the Forbes family in a bid to secure local support for their claims highlights the hitherto underemphasized importance of this family as the font of local authority, and draws attention to the effect of Stewart’s death on the exercise of local lordship in Mar. Taken together, these four chapters will challenge current perceptions of Mar’s geographical development and political decline between c.1281 and 1513.

Muitos barões para poucos marqueses: a política e as práticas de nobilitação no Segundo Reinado (1840-1889) / Many barons for few marquises: policies and nobilitation practices in the Second Reign (1840-1889)

Oliveira, Marina Garcia de 28 March 2019 (has links)
Esta tese se propõe a analisar a concessão de títulos de nobreza ao longo do Segundo Reinado (1840 - 1889) no Brasil. Neste período, foram concedidos 1138 títulos de nobreza, dos quais 762 títulos eram baronatos. A nobreza obedecia às normas da Constituição de 1824, ou seja, era uma nobreza honorífica, não hereditária e desprovida de mercês e privilégios. Assim, esta tese apresenta as inúmeras transformações pelas quais passou a nobreza imperial, tanto no que se refere à quantidade de títulos ofertados e à hierarquia destes títulos, quanto ao perfil dos titulados e as justificativas que nortearam tais concessões. Considerando também que a oferta de títulos de nobreza era uma prerrogativa do Poder Executivo, esta tese contempla o modo como as diferentes conjunturas política e econômica, vivenciadas por cada um dos gabinetes ministeriais, ao longo de todo esse período, interferiram na concessão de títulos, tanto para angariar apoio do alto escalão da política, quanto para agraciar figuras locais, afetadas pelas medidas tomadas pelo governo imperial. Dentro desta temática, lança luz também sobre uso dos títulos de nobreza em momentos específicos do Segundo Reinado, como a Conciliação, a Guerra do Paraguai e sobre os debates para a emancipação escrava, contribuindo para compreender como os últimos gabinetes do Império utilizaram as nobilitações como estratégia para ampliarem suas bases de apoio locais e assim darem andamento às discussões em voga naquela circunstância. Finalmente, esta tese também demonstra uma prática que, embora fosse menos comum, era reveladora dos enfrentamentos vividos pelos gabinetes, justamente a não aceitação de um título de nobreza, procurando enquadrar tal decisão em um cenário político mais amplo, de tal modo que aquele que não aceitou o título ofertado continuou a ocupar os cargos ligados à monarquia. / The purpose of this thesis is to examine the granting of titles of nobility along the Second Reign (1840 - 1889) in Brazil. In this period, 1138 titles of nobility were granted, out of which 762 were Baron\'s titles. The nobility abided by the provisions of the Constitution of 1824, i.e., it was an honorary nonhereditary title of nobility, devoid of bounties and privileges. Thus, this thesis presents the countless transformations through which the imperial nobility went, regarding the number of titles offered and their hierarchy, as well as the holder profile and the justifications that guided such concessions. Considering that the provision of titles of nobility was a prerogative of the Executive Power, this thesis examines how the different political and economic scenarios experienced by each ministerial office throughout this period interfered in the granting of titles as a way to obtain support from the highest levels of politics, as well as to reward local figures affected by the measures taken by the imperial government. Within this theme, it also sheds light on the use of titles of nobility in specific moments of the Second Reign, such as the Conciliation, the Paraguay War and regarding the discussions on slave emancipation, contributing to understand how the last offices of the Reign used nobilitation as a strategy to broaden their local support bases and thus make progress with the ongoing debates at the time. Finally, this thesis also demonstrates a less common practice which revealed the confrontations experienced by offices, precisely the nonacceptance of a title of nobility, seeking to place such decision in a broader political scenario, so that those who did not accept the title offered continued to occupy positions linked to the monarchy.
