The work, published in 1648, in Lisbon, by the religious Manoel Calado, has João Fernandes Vieira, a "senhor de engenho" of Pernambuco, as financier and protagonist. The book, in which the central component was guided by providential history, had a strategic purpose. The work can be understood as a political project, guided by the marks of the historiography of the period, whose efforts lay in the discursive theory of "boa razão de Estado". In addition to understanding which were the justifications of "guerra da liberdade divina", our work aims to scrutinize the relationship between a panegyric written and aspirations of ennoblement. Finally, we look at the speech used by the religious in order to understand what ideals he stood for and meant to disclose in his writings. / Este estudo centra-se na análise de uma narrativa escrita durante o período da invasão holandesa ao Brasil, o livro intitulado O Valeroso Lucideno e Triunfo da Liberdade. A obra, publicada em 1648, em Lisboa, pelo religioso Manoel Calado, tem João Fernandes Vieira, senhor de engenho de Pernambuco, como financiador e protagonista. O Valeroso Lucideno, cujo componente central guiava-se por uma história de cunho providencialista, tinha uma finalidade estratégica. A obra pode ser compreendida como um projeto político, tanto do encomendador, quanto do encomendado, pautado pelas marcas da historiografia do período, cujo esforço discursivo residia na teoria da boa razão de Estado. Para além de compreender de que forma se deram as justificativas da "guerra da liberdade divina" que perpassam, a todo o momento, a escrita de Manoel Calado, nosso trabalho pretende perscrutar a relação que havia entre uma escrita panegírica e os anseios de nobilitação. Por fim, atentamos ainda para o discurso utilizado pelo religioso com o intuito de entender quais os ideais que ele defendia e pretendia divulgar em seus escritos.

2	The Acoustics of Abolition: Recovering the Evangelical Anti–Slave Trade Discourse Through Late-Eighteenth-Century Sermons, Hymns, and Prayers Gilman, Daniel 23 April 2013 (has links) This thesis explores the late-eighteenth-century movement to end Britain’s transatlantic slave trade through recovering one of the major discourses in favour of abolition, namely that of the evangelical Anglicans. This important intellectual milieu has often been ignored in academia and is discovered through examining the sermons, hymns, and prayers of three influential leaders in this movement: Member of Parliament William Wilberforce, pastor and hymn writer John Newton, and pastor and professor Charles Simeon. Their oral texts reveal that at the heart of their discourse lies the doctrine of Atonement. On this foundation these abolitionists primarily built a vocabulary not of human rights, but of public duty. This duty was both to care for the destitute as individuals and to protect their nation as a whole because they believed that God was the defender of the enslaved and that he would bring providential judgement on those nations that ignored their plight. For the British evangelicals, abolishing the slave trade was not merely a means to avoid impending judgement, but also part of a broader project to prepare the way for Jesus’s imminent return through advancing the work of reconciliation between humankind and God as they believed themselves to be confronting evil in all of its forms. By reconfiguring the evangelical abolitionist arguments within their religious framework and social contexts, this thesis helps overcome the dissonance that separates our world from theirs and makes accessible the eighteenth-century abolitionist discourse of a campaign that continues to resonate with human rights activists and scholars of social change in the twenty-first-century.
