Cette étude propose une lecture historique et littéraire sur l’Alentejo, la plus vaste province du Portugal, à partir d’un vagabond qui l’a réellement arpentée et d’une forme de vagabondage qui a aidé à forger une image de l’homme de cette région au caractère indomptable et sauvage. Les vastes terres de l’Alentejo aux larges horizons et aux distances illimitées auront un impact sur l’imaginaire autour de l’Alentejo et sur sa représentation au niveau littéraire. Une partie de l’œuvre littéraire de Manuel da Fonseca est attachée à cette région et noue avec elle des liens étroits qui ont produit un univers riche de significations sur les relations sensibles de l’homme à l’espace. Ainsi, la relation indissociable de l’homme de l’Alentejo à sa région y est représentée et est étroitement liée à celle de Manuel da Fonseca avec cette région. La représentation de la vie à partir d’un rapport intime, familier et d’un certain engagement humain envers cette province, a produit un univers littéraire singulier. Une errance, au départ, attachée à la figure du vagabond, le "maltês", et à cette forme de vagabondage, la "maltesia", vient alors se dessiner dans l’espace littéraire montrant que les frontières entre les différents textes, entre les différents personnages et entre les différents sujets de l’énonciation sont fluides et perméables. Les sens de "maltesia" et de "maltês" s’approfondissent, alors, montrant un espace humain dans lequel viennent s’inscrire l’énigme de la vie et de la création littéraire. / This study proposes a reading of Alentejo’s imaginary, the largest province of Portugal, from a vagabond's point of view who actually drifted this region, in a form of vagrancy, which helped to forge the image of a man with a wild and untameable nature. The vast lands of Alentejo with wide horizons and distances have an immeasurable impact on Alentejo’s imaginary and its representation in literature. Part of Manuel da Fonseca’s literary work is closely attached to this region producing a rich universe of meanings on sensitive relationships of man and space. Thus, the inseparable relationship between the man from Alentejo and his region is represented all over his work and bonds to Manuel da Fonseca's own relationship to that region. A representation of life, through a familiar and intimate story, together with a political humanised commitment towards that province, creates a singular literary universe. A drift, initially attached to the wanderer’s figure - the maltês - and its form of vagrancy – maltesia, comes to draw itself in the literary space showing that the boundaries between the different texts and characters can be fluid and permeable. The sense of maltesia and maltês gently deepens, showing a human space which becomes inscribed with the riddle of life and literary creation.

Nesse sentido, analisaremos a constru??o simb?lica e imag?tica da regi?o central de Portugal, o Alentejo, a partir da produ??o liter?ria (1916 ? 1930) da poeta portuguesa Florbela D?Alma Concei??o Espanca. Propomos analisar a obra florbeliana n?o s? a partir de suas rela??es internas, mas tamb?m externas, enfatizando a liga??o entre hist?ria, espa?o e literatura. Dessa forma, propomos indagar acerca da dimens?o simb?lica ? dos significados, das imagens e das representa??es ? que incitou uma das mais controversas poetas portuguesa do in?cio do s?culo XX ? se debru?ar na constru??o po?tica do espa?o alentejano, questionando n?o s? os sentidos agenciados pelo discurso liter?rio de Florbela Espanca para inventar o seu Alentejo, adornado pela mem?ria, pela dor e pela saudade, mas investigar como o meio sociocultural em que viveu influenciou na sua obra, na sua vida e nas formas de sentir e viver o Alentejo. Para melhor compreendermos como a poeta significou a espacialidade alentejana, ao longo desse trabalho problematizaremos tr?s categorias de espa?o na obra de Florbela Espanca: a regi?o, o campo e a paisagem. Dessa forma, essa pesquisa se insere no campo da hist?ria cultural na medida em que vamos trabalhar com toda a produ??o liter?ria de Florbela Espanca, cartas, di?rios, fotos e biogr?ficas e cr?ticas liter?rias, delimitando um recorte temporal de 1916 ? in?cio da atividade intelectual de Florbela Espanca ? ? 1930 ? publica??o de Charneca em Flor (p?stumo) e o suic?dio da poeta. Portanto, num constante exerc?cio simb?lico das palavras atravessado pelos sentimentos mais subjetivos do sujeito, a todo o momento nosso trabalho ser? guiado pelo questionamento do que seria o Alentejo para a poeta, que sentidos e significados atravessou essa espacialidade que marcou t?o soberanamente as mem?rias mais felizes e tristes da vida de Florbela Espanca. / In this work, we investigate the symbolic construction of a particular spatiality, starting from the theoretical assumption that spaces are subjective constructions guided by different cultures, feelings and rationales, but mostly spaces are human constructs driven by social relations, as a result of the material investment and symbol that reflects the needs of a particular society at a given time of historical development. Accordingly, we analyze the construction and symbolic imagery of the central region of Portugal, the Alentejo, from the literary production (1916 ? 1930) the English poet Florbela Espanca D'Alma Conception Espanca. Thus, we propose to analyze the florbelian work not only from its internal relations, but also external, emphasizing the link between history, space and literature. Thus, we propose to inquire about the symbolic dimension ? the meanings of images and representations ? which prompted one of the most controversial Portuguese poets of the early twentieth to look into the poetic construction of space Alentejo century, questioning not only the senses brokered by speech literary Florbela Espanca to invent your Alentejo, adorned with memories, pain and longing, but investigate how the socio-cultural environment influenced your work, in your life and ways to feel and live the Alentejo. To better understand how the poet means the Alentejo spatiality, throughout this work we question three categories of space in the work of Florbela Espanca: the region, the countryside and the landscape of the Alentejo. Thus, this research falls within the field of cultural history in the medical we will work with the entire literary output Florbela Espanca, letters, diaries, photos and biographical and literary criticism, by establishing the time frame of 1916 ? beginning of intellectual activity Florbela Spank ? the 1930 ? publication of Blossom Heath (posthumous) and the suicide of the poet. Therefore, a constant symbolic exercise of words crossed by more subjective feelings of the subject, all the time our work will be guided by the question of what would be the Alentejo for the poet, who senses and meanings across this spatiality that marked so sovereignly happiest memories and sad life Florbela Espanca.

This study combines long-term settlement data with short-term excavation data to explore the conditions that led late prehistoric communities in Iberia’s southwest to aggregate during the Late Bronze Age [LBA]. This long-term approach involves the application of geographic information systems [GIS] to identify settlement patterns in the Central Alentejo from the Late Neolithic [LN]/Chalcolithic to the Late Bronze Age (ca. 3500 – 800 BCE). In the Serra d’Ossa microregion of the southwest there are 176 sites that date to the Neolithic/Chalcolithic, only two that date to the EBA/MBA, and 27 that date to the LBA. This shift is directly related to the Chalcolithic “collapse” that occurred in the mid/late third millennium BCE, influenced by both sociocultural and environmental factors. The LBA of the southwest has long been defined by the emergence of a new culture associated with a concern for defensiveness and warriorship, represented on stone stelae by warrior iconography, and by the emergence of large-fortified upland sites that appear during this period. A distinct lack of small-scale settlement data has previously led to insufficient interpretations and characterizations of the period. In turn, this thesis incorporates short-term data from excavation at the large-fortified upland site of Castelo Velho da Serra d’Ossa, the one excavated example of such a site in the Serra d’Ossa microregion and one of the few excavated LBA sites in the wider southwest. The short-term excavation data are discussed in the context of the long-term settlement patterns to better characterize the LBA of the Iberian southwest, a period previously underrepresented in the region. The central focus of study is to investigate the emergence of these settlements (up to 15 ha in size) and the communities that inhabited them; considering the processes underpinning place-making and aggregation both locally and within its broader prehistoric context. / Thesis / Master of Arts (MA)
