Partindo da iconografia do Retábulo das Almas do Purgatório, da Igreja de Santa Clara do Porto, propusemo-nos realizar um estudo das géneses devocionais e antropológicas do seu programa iconográfico. Este estudo alicerçou-se em fontes de origem multidisciplinar, dentro das ciências sociais, estando, no entanto, sempre subjugado a uma leitura historiográfica. Assim, a procura de uma compreensão do porquê das formas, levou-nos a uma pesquisa que envolveu uma pensada articulação entre o texto teórico das várias áreas das ciências sociais e os factos históricos. Para uma compreensão mais eficaz, o trabalho dividiu-se num estudo segmentado pelas temáticas presentes no retábulo. O trabalho começa numa incursão pelo estudo do purgatório, (temática principal do retábulo) dividindo o seu estudo pelas várias cambiantes do seu culto. O estudo foi posteriormente vectorizado para a génese da devoção das duas imagens de Santos Negros presentes no retábulo – Santo Elesbão e Santa Ifigénia. A partir dos referidos objectos de estudo, quisemos criar uma reflexão debruçada no “sentido das imagens”, o qual acaba por se apartar em muito da sua materialidade. O fim último deste trabalho é uma tentativa de união das várias ciências sociais para o estudo do “objecto artístico”.

The Land Hill and Hidden Hills study areas were the site of the 2006 and 2007 Brigham Young University's archaeological field schools. The two study areas are located in contrasting environments; the Land Hill area is located along the Santa Clara River in southwestern Utah, and the Hidden Hills area was is located on the Shivwits Plateau in northwestern Arizona. The Land Hill study area is located within a well-watered environment which would support a primarily horticultural lifestyle. The Hidden Hills study area is located in an arid environment without permanent streams which would support a more mobile hunting lifestyle. The contrasting environments of these two study areas allowed for a study of the similarities and differences in the use of stone tools. Based on the results of the analysis and comparison of the stone tool and debitage assemblages, from sites in both areas throughout time, suggests that the people in the Land Hills study area actually seemed to be living a lifestyle similar to the people in the Hidden Hills area.

The Greater than Class C (GTCC) Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) evaluated the potential impacts from the construction and operation of a new facility or facilities, or use of an existing facility, employing various disposal methods (geologic repository, intermediate depth borehole, enhanced near surface trench, and above grade vault) at six federal sites and generic commercial locations. For three of the locations being considered as possible locations, consulting tribes were brought in to comment on their perceptions on how GTCC low level radioactive waste would affect Native American resources (land, water, air, plants, animals, archaeology, etc.) short and long term. The consulting tribes produced essays that were incorporated into the EIS and these essays are in turn included in this collection. This essay was produced by members of the culturally affiliated tribes to Los Alamos National Lab.

Em outras palavras, a investigação procurou refletir sobre as mudanças e as permanências que ocorrem nessa realidade específica, analisando as constantes (re)significações que as irmãs realizam sobre sua própria situação. Para tanto, foi necessário contextualizar as origens do monaquismo, da clausura religiosa e sua expansão no Ocidente, enfatizando a influência dos preceitos de Francisco de Assis sobre a fundadora da Ordem, Clara de Assis, no século XIII. Também foi importante fazer um levantamento historiográfico do desenvolvimento da vida religiosa feminina no Brasil até os dias contemporâneos, devido às transformações que vêm ocorrendo nos institutos de vida consagrada e afetam, também, a religiosidade clariana. Fez-se necessário pensar a trajetória das mulheres que compartilham desses ideais monásticos, compreendendo as motivações para o ingresso e permanência na vida religiosa, analisando seu cotidiano no claustro e refletindo sobre as relações dentro do mosteiro e além dele, isto é, com a hierarquia católica e a sociedade laica. A partir do trabalho etnográfico no mosteiro paulista, foi possível constatar que as religiosas se adaptaram a uma realidade capitalista e globalizada, conservando os preceitos de sua fundadora. As práticas da oração contemplativa, pobreza e clausura permaneceram como partes inerentes à vocação clariana. O estudo dessa religiosidade possibilitou a compreensão dos sentidos e significados atribuídos à eclesialidade contemplativa e permitiu conhecer qual o lugar da vida religiosa monástica feminina nos dias contemporâneos. / This research sought to understand how is built and expressed the religiosity of a group of nuns from São Paulo adepts to the Order of St. Clare of Assisi. In other words, the research sought to reflect on the changes and the continuities that occur in that particular reality, analyzing the constant (new) meanings that the sisters carry on their own situation. Therefore, it was necessary to contextualize the origins of monasticism, the cloistered religious and its expansion in the West, emphasizing the influence of the precepts of Francis of Assisi on the Order's founder, Clare of Assisi, in the thirteenth century. It was also important to make a historiographical survey of the development of Brazilian female religious life to contemporary days, due to the transformations taking place in institutes of consecrated life which affect also the Clarian religiosity. It was necessary to think about the trajectory of women who share these monastic ideals, understanding the motivations to enter and remain in the religious life, analyzing their daily life in the cloister and reflecting on the relationships within the monastery and beyond, that is, with the hierarchy Catholic and secular society. From the ethnographic work in São Paulo monastery was established that the religious have adapted to a capitalist and globalized reality, keeping the precepts of its founder. The practice of contemplative prayer, poverty and remained cloistered parts inherent to Clarian vocation. The study of this religion enabled the understanding of the senses and meanings attributed to the contemplative and it allowed knowing the place of female monastic life in contemporary days.

This presentation is a project overview and discussion of Native American participation in preparing documents for the Greater Than Class C Environmental Impact Statement. Tribal representatives were involved in the assessments at the Hanford Site, Nevada Test Site, and Los Alamos National Lab.
