Carece, ainda, de pesquisas pormenorizadas, que dêem atenção ao específico, que particularizem as contribuições de cada autor para o estabelecimento do campo. Enfrentou-se, neste trabalho, o desafio de lançar luz sobre a trajetória e a obra de história ambiental de Warren Dean (1932-1994), a partir de um exame crítico de material bibliográfico diverso e fontes orais. Ao incorporar as variáveis ambientais em seus estudos, buscando compreender as relações históricas entre a sociedade brasileira e o meio ambiente, esse brasilianista norte-americano produziu trabalhos inovadores sobre a produção de borracha na Amazônia e o desflorestamento da Mata Atlântica, muito mencionados, porém pouco estudados. Ofereceu uma interpretação do passado, refletindo sobre os problemas colocados pelo presente, com base nos temas do “desenvolvimento econômico” e da “degradação ambiental”. No plano analítico, empregou a “fórmula” from the origins to the present, denotando certo sentido “pragmático” e “presentista”. O rigor objetivista dá lugar a uma intencionalidade, a uma vontade de transformação da realidade. A história ambiental assume um caráter utilitário, de servir para atenuar o impacto na sociedade no futuro. Em termos de escala, o internacionalismo propiciado pela questão ecológica forçou um deslocando no eixo focal de Warren Dean, do domínio do regional/nacional para o internacional/global. Implícita, neste deslocamento, está a defesa de uma ética ecológicoglobal, apontando-se na direção de uma cooperação internacional, no contexto de Guerra-Fria e de tendências nacionalistas. Já no âmbito metodológico, a sua história ambiental caracterizou-se, fundamentalmente, pelo amplo diálogo com as ciências naturais, agrárias e com a geografia, e pelo trabalho de campo, baseado... / Environmental history is new in Brazil and diversifies. In this field, it is still missing detailed research that brings particular attention to the specific, to the contributions of each author to the establishment of the field. In this work, we emphasized Warren Dean’s life journey (1932- 1994) and mainly his work on environmental history, performing a critical examination of bibliographic material and diverse oral sources. By incorporating environmental variables in his studies, seeking to understand the historical relations between Brazilian society and the environment, this American Brazilianist produced innovative work on rubber production in the Amazon and on deforestation of the Atlantic Forest, both subjects much mentioned but little studied. Offered an interpretation of the past, reflecting problems brought by it, based on themes as economic development and environmental degradation. At the analytical level, he used the formula from the origins to the present, showing a pragmatic and present sense. The objective rigor opens to an intention, a desire of changing reality. Environmental history assumes a utility trace, serving to mitigate the impact on society in the future. In terms of scale, international character provided by ecological issues forced a modification on the focal analysis of Warren Dean, from the regional / national to the international / global field. The defense of a global ecological ethic is implicit in this alteration, indicating to an international cooperation in the context of the Cold War and to nationalist tendencies. In the methodological framework, Warren Dean’s environmental history was characterized primarily by the broad dialogue with the natural sciences, agricultural and geography, and by the field work, based on observations and interviews. The author left an innovative work, lesson of research and engagement... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

From this thesis we gain new insights into nineteenth and early twentieth century Mormonism. The life of Lewis Warren Shurtliff was typical of other Latter-day Saints in the formative period of the Church and Shurtliff contributed in many ways to Mormonism's growth and development. The New England background of the Shurtliff family is informative in determining the influences of Calvinist New England theology on early Mormons.Shurtliff's vocations of pioneer, colonizer and freighter contributed to the building of a mountain empire in the Great Basin. His courtship, marriages and families and his attitudes and beliefs concerning plural and eternal marriage influenced many members of the Church. His more than fifty years of service as a regional Church leader sheds new light on the role of wards and stakes in the Latter-day Saints Church. President Shurtliff's life and personality contributed to the acceptance and assimilation of Mormonism into the mainstream of American life.
