Esta tese examina o processo de implantação de jardins públicos no Brasil entre o final do século XIX e início do XX, buscando identificar soluções de aclimatação das matrizes paisagísticas estrangeiras ao contexto cultural, social e geográfico do país. O trabalho toma como objeto de estudo os jardins das cidades do Recife, Fortaleza e João Pessoa e os analisa a partir de quatro variáveis - seus nomes, usos, elementos naturais e equipamentos -, privilegiando fontes documentais, relatos de cronistas e memorialistas e levantamento in loco, em diálogo com a historiografia do paisagismo. Assim, a tese evidencia que o cultivo de jardins públicos no Brasil refletiu ritmos e modos diversos de interpretação dos conceitos e elementos formais dos jardins estrangeiros frente a circunstâncias locais, como preexistências arquitetônicas e urbanísticas; recursos naturais, materiais e tecnológicos; usos; aspectos climáticos e terminológicos. / This thesis examines the process of implantation of public gardens in Brazil between the The nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, seeking to identify solutions for acclimatization of Foreign landscape to the cultural, social and geographical context of the country. Work takes Study of the gardens of the cities of Recife, Fortaleza and João Pessoa, and analyzes the From four variables - their names, uses, natural elements and equipment - Privileging documentary sources, reports of chroniclers and memorialists and survey in loco, In dialogue with the historiography of landscaping. Thus, the thesis evidences that the cultivation of Public gardens in Brazil reflected different rhythms and modes of interpretation of concepts and Formal elements of foreign gardens in the face of local circumstances such as pre-existing Architectural and urban planning; Natural, material and technological resources; Uses; aspects Climatic and terminological.

Os Infortúnios trágicos da constante Florinda, de Gaspar Pires de Rebelo, foram publicados em 1625. Devido ao sucesso alcançado pelo texto, veio a público, em 1633, uma continuação intitulada Segunda parte da Constante Florinda, em que se trata dos infortúnios que teve Arnaldo buscando-a pelo mundo. A Constante Florinda (esse é o título pelo qual as duas partes da obra, em conjunto, ficaram conhecidas), muito lida nos séculos XVII e XVIII, foi praticamente esquecida nos séculos seguintes. Este nosso trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a referida obra, evidenciando os procedimentos retóricos e poéticos e os ensinamentos estóico-cristãos que constituem a narração e a doutrina da Constante Florinda. Tendo em vista tal propósito, o estudo, num primeiro momento, volta-se para os preceitos retóricos e poéticos que permitem pensar-se numa ars narrandi, ou seja, uma técnica de narrar que o narrador, como persona gnara, conhece e sabe empregar ao relatar os infortúnios trágicos de Florinda e Arnaldo. Se um dos ofícios dessa narração é ensinar algo para os leitores, já que estes devem ser movidos não apenas pelo deleite, mas também pelo proveito, nosso trabalho, num segundo momento, discute as lições das histórias narradas. Assim, o que buscamos demonstrar é que o proveito da narração dos infortúnios de Florinda e Arnaldo ecoa os ensinamentos da doutrina estóico-cristã dos séculos XVI e XVII, difundida por autores como Justo Lípsio e Francisco de Quevedo. Ressalta-se neste trabalho, por fim, o seu próprio artifício. Apenas no nosso estudo narração e doutrina podem ser separadas, pois no texto da Constante Florinda tudo se dá simultaneamente: a narração já é doutrina, e mostra aos leitores, com exempla estóicos, os caminhos (trágicos) do viver cristão. / Gaspar Pires de Rebelos Infortúnios trágicos da constante Florinda was published in 1625. Given its conspicuous success, a sequel, Segunda parte da Constante Florinda, em que se trata dos infortúnios que teve Arnaldo buscando-a pelo mundo, came out in 1633. Constante Florinda (this is the title both parts became known as), largely disseminated in the 17th and 18th centuries, was nonetheless virtually forgotten in the subsequent centuries. This dissertation intends to analyze the aforementioned work, so as to highlight not only rhetorical and poetic procedures, but also stoic-christian lessons which lie beneath both the narrative and the doctrine of Constante Florinda. Bearing this goal in mind, this study will first focus on rhetorical and poetic precepts which render it possible to think about the ars narrandi, that is to say, a narrative technique that the narrator (as persona gnara) deeply understands, thus being able to employ it when reporting the tragic misfortunes of Florinda and Arnaldo. If one of the purposes of this narration is to teach something to its readers, since the latter must be moved not only by delight, but also by profit, we also intend to adduce the lessons of the stories the narrator tells. Therefore, we mean to demonstrate that the profit from the narration of Florindas and Arnaldos misfortunes reflects 16th and 17th-century stoic-christian doctrine, profoundly advertised by authors such as Justus Lipsius and Francisco de Quevedo. Last but not least, our dissertation has it as an inherent intention to stress its artifice. Only in our study can narration and doctrine be set apart, since in Constante Florinda they emerge simultaneously: narration is also doctrine, and conveys the (tragic) paths, with stoic exempla, of christian life.

The analysis of images is proceeded by a historical review on urban morphology and iconography; the image of the city; and on a selection of American and European photographers that included the city within their preferred subject matter. In the second part of the article the intention is to be explicit on some of the positions that underlie the fundamental concepts of the author's work, starting with the explanation of the language around the ephemeral and then developing aspects relating to the technical image, an unbreakable element of the photograph. Finally, the study focuses on an interpretative and descriptive analysis, looking at historical, technical, aesthetic and conceptual elements of the most representative images that form part of the author's three thematic exhibitions. At this stage it explores: the embedding in photographic aesthetics of facets of simple and routine urban daily life; the potential of reflection in water on the ground; as well as the dominance of shadows in the contemporary vision of creative photography. / O presente trabalho propõe uma reflexão teórica em torno das imagens fotográficas de produção do autor, feitas entre os anos 2001 e 2006, no decorrer de específicos efeitos visuais de caráter transitório que surgem na cidade. Previamente à análise das imagens se inclui uma revisão histórica sobre a morfologia e iconografia urbana, sobre a imagem da cidade e a obra de uma seleção de fotógrafos americanos e europeus que incluíram a cidade dentro das suas temáticas preferidas. Na segunda parte se busca deixar explícitos alguns posicionamentos sobre temáticas que fundamentam conceitualmente a produção do autor, começando pela explicação sobre a linguagem em torno do efêmero e desenvolvendo aspectos relacionados à imagem técnica como elemento indissolúvel da fotografia. Finalmente o estudo se debruça sobre a análise descritiva e interpretativa, na base de elementos históricos, técnicos, estéticos e conceituais, de imagens representativas que fizeram parte de três exposições temáticas do autor. Nessa fase se explora: a incorporação na estética fotográfica de motivos simples, anódinos e comuns do cotidiano urbano; a potencialidade do reflexo nas poças de água do chão; assim como o domínio das sombras na visão contemporânea de fotografia criadora.

Cette thèse porte sur le traitement de la folie à l’Époque Moderne étudiée à la lumière du Droit pénal et inquisitorial. Elle s’attache à analyser la façon dont la folie a été appréciée pour chaque type de délit. Le corpus est constitué de l’ensemble des relations de causes des quatorze tribunaux inquisitoriaux péninsulaires, à savoir Barcelone, Cuenca, Cordoue, Grenade, Llerena, Logroño, Madrid, Murcie, Santiago, Saragosse, Séville, Tolède, Valence et Valladolid, ainsi que de quelques procès et de la correspondance échangée entre le Tribunal de la Suprême et ces tribunaux au cours de la période allant de 1537 à 1700.Ces recherches, menées dans une perspective novatrice et interdisciplinaire qui convoque l’anthropologie, l’histoire du Droit et celle des mentalités, ont vocation à permettre d’étudier les relations complexes que l’Inquisition entretient avec la folie. / This dissertation deals with the treatment of madness in the early Modern period. In the light of criminal and inquisitorial law, it aims at analysing how madness was assessed for each type of crime. The corpus of this dissertation is based on the Relations of causes of the fourteen peninsular inquisitorial tribunals, i.e. Barcelona, Cuenca, Cordoba, Grenada, Llerena, Logroño, Madrid, Murcie, Santiago, Zaragoza, Seville, Toledo, Valencia and Valladolid, as well as on some lawsuits and the correspondence exchanged between the Tribunal of the Suprema and these tribunals from 1537 to 1700.This research, carried out in an innovative and interdisciplinary perspective which used anthropology, the history of Law and the history of mentalities, has allowed me to study the complex relations between Inquisition and madness.

<p>This dissertation is a study of the work of Michel de Nostredame (Nostradamus).

Disertacijoje nagrinėjami Lietuvos bajorijos mediniai gyvenamieji pastatai, darbe vadinami ponų namais. Darbo t i k s l a s – išaiškinti ir pateikti Lietuvos bajorų namų medinės architektūros raidą nuo Valakų reformos iki 1861 Valstiečių reformos. Darbe tirti esami bei neišlikę (žinomi dėka šaltinių) mediniai bajorijos namai, nustatyti vyravę pastatų tipai, priežastys, lėmusios tipų kaitą, atskleidžiami architektūros ypatumai, ponų namo santykis su etnine ir profesionaliąja architektūra. Tyrimai parodė, kad skirtingų bajorijos sluoksnių ponų namų architektūros raida vyko skirtingai. Stambių ir vidutinių bajorų namų raida buvo intensyvi, ją ypač veikė stilinės architektūros pokyčiai. Smulkių bajorų namai kito mažai, statyboje laikytasi etninių tradicijų. Pagal stambių ir vidutinių bajorų XVI a. vidurio– XIX a. vidurio pastatų planines ir tūrines –erdvines struktūras ir formas, išskirti trys architektūrinės raidos etapai: ankstyvasis- formavimosi (iki XVII a. vidurio), „barokinis“ (XVII a. vidurio – XVIII a. septinto dešimtmečio); „klasicistinis“ (XVIII a. pabaigos – XIX a. vidurio). Pirmajame etape iš esmės pakito gyvenamosios erdvės sankloda ir namo įvaizdis: vietoje kelių skirtingų funkcijų namų, skirtų bajoro šeimai ir jo svečiams (gyvenamojo, pokylių namo, ir kt.) susiformavo vienas daugiafunkcinis, parterinis, simetriškos kompozicijos ponų namas. Antrajame ir trečiajame etapuose daugiafunkcinis ponų namas buvo tobulinamas pagal etiketo (gyvenimo būdo) ir vyravusių...

The thesis investigates the existing and not existing (known from the sources) wooden residential buildings of Lithuanian nobility, identifies their dominant types and reasons, which influenced the change of architecture, and reveals the singularities of the architecture and the relation of a manor’s house with ethnic and professional architecture. The research has shown that the architectural evolution of the manor house owned by nobility of different rank was developing differently. The development of great and middle-class nobility’s manor house was intense, especially influenced by the changes in style architecture. The small noblemen‘s houses were changing a little, their construction followed the ethnic traditions. According to the layout and shape of structures and forms of the buildings set on the manors of great and middle-class nobility, three stages of their architectural evolution were singled out: the period of early formation (till the middle of the 17th century), “baroque” period (from the middle of the 17th century till the seventh decade of the 18th century) and the “classicism” period (from the end of 18th century till the end of the 19th century).

This thesis has attempted to define and discuss as many aspects of English crusade policy in the late thirteenth century as the source material will allow. Following a brief chronological summary of Edward's involvement in the defence of the Holy Land, three sections form the framework of this examination of English crusading practice. The first consists of a narrative history of the Lord Edward's crusade of 1270-1272; the second deals with political factors which had relevance to English crusading activity throughout the period 1264-1307; and the final section includes a detailed examination of three important aspects of thirteenth-century crusading history: the contemporary relationship between theory and practice exemplified by English policies; the legatine authority and use of canonistic doctrines underling English preaching and recruitment; and the machinery through which English policies were financed.

A partir do levantamento por amostragem de registros fonográficos brasileiros realizados entre 1957 e 2005, organizado em discografia e listas, localizamos e comparamos por meio de fichas obras que foram gravadas mais de uma vez por diferentes intérpretes e em épocas distintas. Essa comparação nos revelou uma diversidade de soluções de ordem prática e interpretativa que tem sido adotada por músicos brasileiros para a execução de um repertório que durante décadas foi considerado desconhecido. A escassez de referências histórico-musicais, indispensáveis para uma melhor compreensão da música setecentista e oitocentista, dificulta a prática interpretativa desse repertório e uma tradição musical que se perdeu ao longo do tempo faz com que não exista consenso entre as diferentes gravações de uma mesma obra. Este trabalho conclui que não existe uma escola de interpretação da música praticada no Brasil entre 1730 e 1850, e que nos últimos 50 anos, por opção ou desconhecimento, cada músico tem adotado soluções particulares de acordo com sua realidade musical disponível. / This study has as its objective the mapping out of a panorama of interpretative practice linked to the vocal repertoire, which existed in Brazil between 1730 and 1850, as it relates to the aesthetic and functional changes that this music has undergone since its first performances in the 1950's. From the survey carried out with Brazilian recordings done between 1957 and 2005, which have been organized in the discography and repertoire lists, we located and compared those that have been recorded more than once, by different interpreters and at distinct periods of time. This comparison disclosed a variety of solutions, both practical and performatic, which were adopted by Brazilian musicians to perform this repertoire, considered unknown for decades. The scarcity of historic and musical references, as indispensable as they are for the best understanding of the music of the 18th and 19th centuries, makes the interpretative practice of this repertoire more difficult, added to the loss of the musical tradition through time. For these reasons, there does not exist a consensus between the different recordings of the same piece. We conclude that a specific school of musical practice in Brazil between 1730 and 1850 does not exist and that in the last fifty years, as a result of their own option or out of ignorance, each musician or musical group has adopted his own particular solutions in accordance with the musical reality available.

The object of this article is to study the mobilization of members of the Society of Jesus, as an example of the connection between different European and American territories in the early modern Spanish monarchy. It also reflects on the relation which might exist, in a Hispano-American world characterized by a situation of colonial domination and the birth of new societies and territories, between the mobility of members of religious orders and their ties to the local population. / El objeto de este artículo es estudiar la movilidad de los miembros de la Compañía de Jesús como uno de los ejemplos de la conexión entre los diferentes territorios europeos y americanos de la monarquía española en la Edad Moderna. Se trata también de reflexionar acerca de la relación que puede existir, en un mundo hispanoamericano caracterizado por una situación de dominación colonial y el nacimiento de nuevas sociedades y territorios, entre la movilidad de los religiosos y su arraigo local.
