It is therefore intended to imply the need for the audiovisual record to be recognized as an archival record and to be included in record management procedures. Therefore, the archival principles that guide the records managment, as well as the characteristics and the historical path of audiovisual records in archives in Brazil, are based on the principles of archival principles, starting from the bibliographic research for the delimitation of the topic of study. In this sense, these questions are analyzed at the national level, based on the official bodies for the formulation of archival policies, as well as the events and publications promoted by these professional associations and bodies of the Records Managment. These procedures have as purpose to base and acquire information for the development of this research and to propose new approches on these records and their specificities, from this retroactive analysis of the area of archives in Brazil. In this way, it is observed that the reflection... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Doutor

O objetivo desta investigação é produzir um guia de referência sobre a música White Power composta por bandas Skinheads brasileiras. Também oferece algumas sugestões metodológicas a respeito da organização de documentação do gênero sonoro, com foco na música.

This thesis provides a history of squeeze making in the discipline of Egyptology from its beginnings in the mid-nineteenth century to the continued use of tin squeezes in modern archaeological practice. The difference in approach to squeezes between the Egyptological and the Mediterranean disciplines will also be discussed. The analysis of the on-going value of squeezes produced more than a century ago highlights their importance for conservation and archival work as well as historical interpretation of the monuments of ancient Egypt. Using squeezes from seven archival collections in the UK as case studies, the accompanying catalogue and discussion highlights the information that can be obtained from the study of paper squeezes taken of Egyptian monuments in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The squeezes studied highlight a number of inscriptions which have disappeared or have been extremely damaged since the squeezes were taken, demonstrating the value of these documents in reconstructing the monuments of the past. The overall objective is to encourage scholars to identify the importance these squeezes hold for epigraphic, social and conservation disciplines which acknowledging the damage caused in their production should not define how they are studied (or indeed not studied) in the modern world.

This socio-palaeographic thesis maintains that behind the uniform appearance of Roman army writing was a particular, dedicated training. Focussing on the third century Dura-Europos, it uncovers evidence for the thorough schooling given to the clerks of the resident Cohors XX Palmyrenorum enabling them to fulfil their administrative duties. These include maintaining efficient documentation systems and preparing a range of accurate, legible texts, and the clerks were trained to produce a repertoire of standard military scripts. Additionally other soldiers and the more general public were taught to read and to understand, to varying degrees, but the clerks, distinct, were specialist writers who found dignity in the work that they did. This dissertation, a preliminary study, draws throughout from the camp’s rich epigraphic and papyrological evidence. It sets out the context in which clerical soldiers worked and the evidence for army literate education and then introduces Roman writing, its form and development generally, before analysing in detail the letter-forms used in one particular standard hand over the decades the cohort’s documents span. In this hand, the well-known development out of Old Roman Cursive is presented and discussed. A brief additional chapter presents the possibility that military clerks also produced camp signage.

My dissertation delineates the Dominican intelligentsia’s collecting of unofficial archives from the local bourgeoisie’s emergence after the Restoration of independence from Spain in 1865 through the Dominican State’s consolidation as a sovereign entity in the 1920s. By unofficial archives bourgeois actors meant, from foundational writer Manuel de Jesús Galván and first national historian José Gabriel García to scholars Pedro Henríquez Ureña and Abigaíl Mejía, private or nonofficial repositories, real or metaphoric, containing anything from personal belongings and printed works to unclaimed ruins. In dialogue with Walter Benjamin, Michel-Rolph Trouillot and Pierre Bourdieu, I show how in the Dominican context the use of authorized and state knowledge lagged behind that of informal, object-based knowledge. In doing so, “The Unofficial Archive” questions traditional understandings of the archive in intellectual history—Jacques Derrida and Michel Foucault—as well as in Performance, Caribbean, and Latin American studies, reassessing the foundational role that a lack of records played in postcolonial archives during nation-building. Chapter one introduces my reading of “archives.” Because Foucault and Derrida consider physical files and intellectual ideas separately, I contend that their methods account insufficiently for postcolonial archives, where material records and ideas are inextricably intertwined. To trace how the materiality of archives produce national habits and traditions the second chapter centers on the 1877 discovery of Christopher Columbus’s relics. As my close reading of historical works such as historian Emiliano Tejera’s Los restos de Colón en Santo Domingo (1878) shows, this recognition prompted supporters of the relics’ authenticity to create a national narrative describing the pillage and loss of the country’s archives, and to popularize this narrative through reproductions in print, visual, and architectural media like the 1898 Columbus Mausoleum in Santo Domingo’s Cathedral. In my third chapter, I examine how prominent bourgeois actors such as the Sociedad Amigos del País used the tradition about the missing archives to legitimize a national literature and historiography leading nation-building by creating unofficial archives in fiction, nonfiction, and printed ephemera. I read García’s Compendio de la historia de Santo Domingo (1867-1906) together with Galván’s Enriquillo: leyenda histórica dominicana, 1503-1533 (1882) as unofficial archives that meditate upon what it meant to the Dominican nation that its archives remained wanting. My fourth chapter analyzes the nationalization of colonial ruins as unofficial archives by the intellectual bourgeoisie as a means for the group to continue gaining power and to fight U.S. imperialism from the post-Restoration through the U.S. military intervention (1916-1924). I focus on the anti-colonial origins of a national archaeology in the work of Alejandro Llenas Julia, Pedro Henríquez Ureña’s philosophical writings on the ruin in Horas de Estudio (1910), and the use of the edifices by intellectuals such as Max Henríquez Ureña to stir an international cultural debate during the occupation in order to defend the country’s right to sovereignty. I conclude with the government’s gradual appropriation and display of unofficial archives during the 1927 inauguration of the National Museum as described in press articles by Abigail Mejía, which resulted in a political iconography that I call a “bric-à-brac” that officially stages the national archives as half-finished. Under this official lens, a new generation of intellectuals used the lack of records to sustain the hispanicist rule of Rafael L. Trujillo (1930-1961) on the idea that he would be the one to protect the nation’s heritage. This dissertation brings together historical and material culture studies from a hemispheric point of view and bridges critical Caribbean and Latin American studies. From a Caribbean perspective, the project challenges Archival Studies to consider non-Western forms of archive emerging out of colonial contexts that remain unaddressed in scholarship about the origin of modern state archives in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. “The Unofficial Archive” brings new insights into transnational debates on cultural heritage, its corruption and plunder, and into the social aftermath of colonial governance and state coercion. It urges scholars to address the long-term effects that conflicts over the inalienability of historical treasures have had in former colonies and Empires, and to ponder the role that advances in technology have had in the democratization of the past and the shaping of race and gender identities from modern times to the present. Ultimately, this research reveals how individual citizens who were ignored by or disagreed with official politics used unconfirmed knowledge and information networks to prevail upon officialdom on matters concerning human rights, universal truth, and the meaning of nationhood.

Para tanto, procedeu-se inicialmente à revisão da literatura Arquivística, atentando para o percurso delimitado pela tradição clássica, do conceito do documento Arquivístico até o que os estudiosos da Arquivística denominam de fenômeno da Informação. Em uma segunda etapa, realizou-se a revisão da literatura arquivística, a partir da identificação das diferentes abordagens sobre o Assunto em Arquivos. Por fim analisa-se os principais apostes teóricos do evento I soggetti e altri apparati di indicizzazione in archivistica: ipotesi di lavoro, no qual a noção de Assunto encontra, talvez, a maior notoriedade acadêmica. Desse modo, procede-se à análise do referencial teórico oriundo do evento, a partir de duas categorias de análise: conceito e função do Assunto na Arquivística para que se possa, ao final, chegar a uma reflexão sobre a construção conceitual do Assunto em arquivos. / Abstract: Searching to concur for the construction of an intellectual device that can perfect the archival doing in the post modern world which the fierce information is optimized, to investigate itself as the notion of Subject comes being boarded in Archival literature, it aimed to offer subsidies for the eventual delimitation of the theoretician-practical field of the notion of Subject and, through the revision of pertinent literature to show the different contexts, by which the notion of Subject is lodged. For in such a way, initially it was proceeded to the revision of Archival literature, attempting for the passage, delimited for the classic tradition, of the concept of the Archival document until what the scholars of the Archival call of phenomenon of the Information. In one second stage, it was realized fullfilled revision of Archival literature, from the identification of the different boardings on the Subject in Archives. Finally it analyzes the main ones of the archival event I soggetti and altri apparati di indicizzazione in: ipotesi di lavoro, which the notion of Subject finds the biggest academic notoriety. From this way, it is proceeded the analysis of the deriving theoretical referencial of the event from two categories of analysis: concept and function of the Subject in the Archival in order to reflect on the conceptual construction of the subject in archives. / Mestre

With the quick abandonment of VCR technology and the adoption of digital and online replacements, people give up freedom and personal power in the name of perceived convenience. VCRs and VHS tapes served two needs: the need to time-shift programming and the need to archive The internet and DVR technology fulfill the first need, that of time-shifting, but completely ignore the need of people to archive, which is a need many people don't even realize they have until they are no longer able to archive programs in both an audio/visual and physical manner. The disappearance of physical recording also makes it impossible for others to use ones VHS tapes for anthropological investigation. DVR records do not end up in thrift stores, or flea markets, and are not easily bequeathed after a person passes. By investigating one man's VHS collection, encouraging others to use tapes, and using tapes as a raw material with which to create new work, I hope to inspire others to realize what they have lost, or perhaps, given up.

Archiving the Archive is an exploration of the changing ways we hold our memories through media. As digital technology becomes ever more present in daily life, many old analog media are becoming obsolete. Throughout history, these media technologies have done significant cultural work through their ability to hold and share the content that formed collective memory and shared identity. But the way we view content is changing. This project aims to serve as remembrance to this symbolic work and the physical uniqueness of these media through illustrative prints imbued with a movement and life otherwise overlooked. These memories are then fractured and abstracted onto postcards that visitors are encouraged to take with them to create a new sort of collective memory of these media objects.
