Este estudo resulta de um levantamento de dados, reflexões e análises sobre 3 Óperas conceituais do artista plástico José Roberto Aguilar, realizadas nos anos 1970: Circo Antropofágico Ambulante Cósmico Latino Americano apresenta essa noite: a transformação permanente do tabu em totem; Ópera o 3º mundo; 3 lutas de samurai, 25 metros de pintura contra 3 demônios que assolam a vídeo-arte nacional. Sob a luz da arte conceitual praticada naquela época, foram selecionados alguns procedimentos e processos criativos utilizados pelo artista e a partir daí foram posicionados temas de discussão, como: a crítica da crítica, arte e magia, a performance do autor, o vídeo como mídia, temas pertinentes àquela época. O tema Antropofagia, recorrente na obra de Aguilar, foi abordado através de um vídeo de 13 minutos. A contribuição desta dissertação é revelar dados e pontos de vista de 3 Óperas de Aguilar e ampliar os arquivos da arte dos anos 1970 para os estudos contemporâneos. / This dissertation is the result of a data collection, reflections and analysis on the three conceptual Operas made by the artist Jose Roberto Aguilar, realized in the seventies: Circo Antropofágico Cósmico Ambulante Latino Americano apresenta esta noite: A Transformação permanente do Tabu em Totem; Ópera do 3º mundo; As 3 lutas de samurai e os 25 metros de pintura contra os demonios que assolam a arte contemporânea brasileira. Under the perspectives of the conceptual art at that time it was selected some procedures and creative processes used by the artist. From this point of view were positioned topics of discussion, like: the critic of the critic, art and Magic, authors performance, and video media. Important themes at that time. The theme Antropofagia, recurring in the work of Aguilar, was approached in a poetic 13-minute video, where the artist through interviews and reading the manifesto anthropophagic shows his vision of anthropophagic world. The contribution that master degree is to reveal datas and some points of views about three Operas Aguilar, and to amplify the archives of the art from the 70\'s, to contemporary studies.

A dissertação tem como objetivo principal investigar a relação do pós-colonialismo com o contexto brasileiro, instanciada pelas referências à teoria de tradução de Haroldo de Campos por parte de teóricos dos Estudos da Tradução. Se, por um lado, o reconhecimento internacional da teoria de tradução de Campos é mais que merecido, por outro, considerá-lo pós-colonial reduz a dimensão e complexidade de seu pensamento, que permeia toda a sua produção intelectual e criativa como poeta, crítico e tradutor. A pesquisa apresenta duas linhas de investigação: a teoria pós-colonial, nos seus aspectos históricos e teóricos e o trabalho e pensamento do tradutor Haroldo de Campos. Apesar de aparentemente paralelas elas convergem para a comprovação, ou não, da seguinte hipótese: a prática tradutória de Haroldo de Campos apresenta uma preocupação mais de cunho artístico que político. / The main purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the relation of Postcolonialism with the Brazilian context, motivated by the references to Haroldo de Camposs translation theory by Translation Studies theoreticians. On the one hand, if the international recognition of Campos\'s translation theory is deserved, on the other, to consider him \"postcolonial\" narrows the dimension of Campos\'s reflections, which pervade all his production as poet, critic, translator and theoretician, and cannot be considered separately. The research will follow two parallel lines of investigation: post-colonial translation theory, its historical and theoretical aspects, and Haroldo de Camposs translation theory, which will converge towards the hypothesis: Camposs translation theory advocated new aesthetic information, rather than a political message.

This study highlights the contentious relationship between the colonizer and the colonized due to disputes over land acquisition, a factor which led to violent conflicts between them, as well as to ongoing violence by Angolan political groups in the post-colonial period, eventually leading to the physical and moral devastation of the country. Thus, it also emphasizes the importance that death rites currently have in Angolan society. The results investigated herein show that the Portuguese metropolis explored and enslaved Angolan people through physical violence and colonial oppression, and later, in the period of decolonization, violence was driven by the pursuit of power, hence culminating in a civil war and in increased social inequality. All the suffering caused to the people was diminished during slavery through death rites driven by suicide, which was regarded as a legitimate way to draw them closer to their ancestors and to help relieve their suffering from the hardships of colonization. However, given the influence of the Catholic Church, the practice of suicide was no longer possible during the civil war, so this method was replaced by the funeral ritual as the main gateway to heaven and also as a way of honoring the ancestors in life. Therefore, the symbolic framework of death rituals is of major importance in society nowadays, as it demonstrates how this practice draws together people of any social level / Esta tese tem por questão investigativa abordar a história de Angola com ênfase na violência e no sofrimento a partir da colonização e descolonização de Portugal, ressaltando a chegada dos primeiros habitantes com destaque na tradição de honrar a sua ancestralidade como herança de pertencimento, que de alguma forma vem reverberando até a sociedade atual. A pesquisa ressalta a relação conflituosa entre colônia e colonizados pela aquisição da terra, fator esse gerador da prática da violência entre si, e também a continuidade da violência no período pós-colônia cometido pelos grupos políticos angolanos, levando o país a uma destruição física e moral, destacando também a importância que o rito de morte tem na atual sociedade angolana. Dentre os resultados investigados na pesquisa, aponta-se que a forma usada pela metrópole portuguesa para explorar e escravizar esse povo africano era a violência física através da opressão colonial e, posteriormente, no período da descolonização, a violência gerada pela busca do poder, culminando numa guerra civil e aumento da desigualdade social. Todo esse sofrimento, que foi causado ao povo, era arrefecido no período da escravatura através do rito de morte causado pelos suicídios, sendo essa uma forma legítima usada para traçar aproximação à ancestralidade, e de amenizar o sofrimento ante as agruras da colonização; entretanto, já no período da guerra civil, por influência da igreja católica, não era mais possível praticar o suicídio, sendo esse método agora trocado pelo ritual fúnebre como a principal conexão para chegar ao céu e também honrar a ancestralidade em vida, evidenciando, assim, a importância que o arcabouço simbólico do ritual de morte tem na atual sociedade, mostrando como essa prática une o povo em qualquer segmento da estrutura social

Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo o estudo da colonização portuguesa do oeste amazônico a partir da atuação de atores sociais significativos tais como o missionário carmelita e o sertanista. Esses agentes da colonização, com seus papeis diversificados, participaram à formação de um território político português cuja extensão foi definida pelas relações com as populações indígenas / The following dissertation aims at the study of the portuguese colonization of western Amazônia, and it will consider the action of significant social agents such as the Carmelite missionaries and the sertanistas. These agents, through their relationship with the Amazonian Indians, granted the formation of the political territory of Portugal

Cette thèse se compose de trois études empiriques sur le commerce colonial Français. Le premier chapitre consiste d’une étude comparative entre le commerce Franco-colonial et le commerce Français avec d'autres groupes de colonies et pays afin d'analyser la nature et la dynamique du commerce sectoriel Français dans la période 1880 jusqu’à la veille de la Première Guerre mondiale. A la base, ce chapitre décrit la construction et restructuration complète des différentes données historiques primaires sur la valeur du commerce sectoriel Français. Les résultats mettent en évidence une tendance commune du commerce Franco-colonial. En particulier, le commerce de la France avec ses colonies a été principalement basé sur les importations de produits de matière première et sur les exportations de produits manufacturés. Cette évidence confirme que l'Empire colonial a été un débouché principal pour exportations de la France et un réservoir essentiel de matières premières. Les statistiques montrent également que suite à la colonisation des colonies Françaises, les échanges commerciaux entre la France et ses colonies ont augmenté, tandis que la colonisation de la Grande-Bretagne et des autres métropoles n'a pas affecté le commerce entre la France et colonies anglaises et européennes. Les résultats ne révèlent pas un avantage comparatif en faveur de ces colonies. Le deuxième chapitre étudie comment la stratégie coloniale illustrée par le nombre des colons Européens installés dans les colonies a affecté la structure du commerce Français. On applique un modèle de gravité dont les résultats montrent que les colonies françaises ayant plus de colons Français dans leurs territoires s’engagent plus dans des relations de commerce avec la France, alors que l'inverse est vrai pour les autres colonies. Ce chapitre examine en outre deux canaux par lesquels l’installation des colons européens pourrait avoir affecté les échanges commerciaux entre la France et les colonies: les institutions et les réseaux. Les résultats montrent que meilleures sont les institutions dans les colonies Françaises, moins est le commerce avec la France, alors que ces meilleures institutions facilitent le commerce de la France avec les colonies anglaises. Ces résultats sont cohérents avec la nature extractive du commerce Franco-colonial. Les réseaux ont un impact positif sur le commerce de la France avec ses colonies, mais un impact négatif sur le commerce avec les autres colonies. Enfin, dans le dernier chapitre, on étudie la relation entre le type de biens que les colonies exportent vers la France et la croissance économique ultérieure de ces pays. Une explication commune pour le nexus exportations-croissance est la qualité des institutions établies dans ces colonies pendant la période coloniale. Afin d'étudier l'impact du commerce colonial sur la croissance économique par l’intermédiaire des institutions, on applique l’approche PLS du modèle d’équations structurelles. Grace à cette méthode, nous sommes en mesure de tirer simultanément l'importance relative et du commerce et des institutions sur la croissance, tout en tenant compte des problèmes de multicolinéarité entre ces variables, leurs erreurs de mesures et des problèmes de taille de petits échantillons. Les résultats évoquent un rôle commun et important du commerce colonial et de la qualité des institutions en déterminant la croissance économique des pays à long terme. En particulier les colonies françaises qui ont exporté des matières premières a la France ont développé des institutions extractives, ce qui a affecté négativement leur développement aujourd'hui, tandis que celles qui ont exporté des produits manufacturés performent mieux économiquement aujourd'hui. Parmi les colonies anglaises et les autres colonies européennes, les exportations de matières premières et de produits manufacturés vers la France ont contribué à de meilleures institutions et donc à un meilleur développement économique a long-terme. / This thesis consists of three empirical papers on French colonial trade patterns: Chapter 1 undertakes a comparative study between Franco-colonial trade and French trade with other groups of countries in order to analyse the nature and dynamic of French sectoral trade for the period starting 1880 until the eve of the WWI. Initially it presents a complete description of the construction and restructure of the various primary historical. Results highlight a common trend regarding Franco-colonial trade. In particular, French trade with its colonies was mainly based on imports of primary products and exports of manufactured goods meaning that the Empire was used as the main dispenser of French exports and their main provider of natural resources. Statistics also emphasize that the event of colonization was followed by an increase in trade between France and its colonies, while colonization from Britain and other metropolis did not impact trade between France and British/ other colonies. This chapter finally reveals that trade with French colonies was unbalanced with no advantage in favor of those colonies. Chapter 2 investigates how the colonial strategy through the settlement decision affected French trade patterns. Using a gravity model, results show that French colonies with more European settlements traded more with France, whereas the opposite is true for other colonies. The chapter further investigates two channels through which European settlements might have affected the French trade pattern with colonies: institutions and networking. Results show that better institutions brought by European settlements had a negative impact on trade with French colonies, while it promoted trade with British colonies. These results are consistent with the extractive nature of French trade relations with its colonies. As for networking, it increases overall French trade within French colonies but reduces it in other colonies. Finally in the last chapter we investigate the relation between the type of goods colonies exported to France and those economies' later development. A common explanation for the export-growth nexus is the quality of institutions established in those colonies during the colonial period. In order to investigate the impact of colonial trade on current growth through the mediation of institutions, we apply the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling. With this method we are able to simultaneously derive the relative importance of trade and of institutions on growth, while taking into account multicollinearity between the variables, their measurements errors and small sample size issues. The results suggest an important joint role for both trade and institutions in determining economic development in the long run. In particular French colonies who exported raw material developed extractive institutions, which negatively affected development today, while those who exported manufactured goods experience better economic performance today. Among British and other colonies, however, higher exports of both raw materials and of manufactured goods to France are associated with better institutions, which lead to better economic performance in the long-run.

O objetivo geral deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência do uso precoce de antimicrobianos na microbiota intestinal, resposta imune e ocorrência de diarreias em bezerras recém-nascidas. Foram selecionadas 26 bezerras Holandesas distribuídas de acordo com a aplicação (ATB+) ou não (ATB-) de tulatromicina (2,5 mg/Kg - SC) até 12h de vida. Capítulo 1 Este capítulo avaliou a influência do uso precoce de antimicrobiano na sanidade de bezerras holandesas recém-nascidas, por meio do exame clínico geral. As diarreias foram detectadas por sistema de escore e matéria seca (%) nas fezes, além do escore respiratório e palpação externa da região umbilical. O desempenho das bezerras foi determinado pela estimativa do ganho de peso. As bezerras ATB- apresentaram maior frequência de mucosas esbranquiçadas (P=0,066) e inflamações umbilicais no ATB- em D3-5 (P=0,063) e D13-15 (P= 0,066). A frequência de escore fecal 2 e 3 foi semelhante entre os grupos, observando-se pico no D13-15. Os valores médios para matéria seca (%) foram menores no ATB+ no D7-9 (P=0,063) e D27-30 (P=0,084). O agente etiológico das diarreias foi o Cryptosporidium e/ou rotavírus. O ganho de peso diário (GPD) foi igual entre grupos, observando-se intensa redução no GPD em D13-15. Capítulo 2 O objetivo deste capítulo foi avaliar a influência do uso precoce de antimicrobianos na colonização bacteriana intestinal, por meio da detecção de material genético dos principais grupos bacterianos por meio do PCR em tempo real. Não foram observadas diferenças entre os grupos para bactérias totais e C. perfringens. As bezerras ATB- apresentaram maior quantidade de Bifidobacterium, nas fezes no D3-5 (P=0,002) e D7-9 (P=0,018). A população de Lactobacillus também apresentou tendência (P=0,097) para maior número de cópias de DNA no grupo ATB-. Ao contrário, a Escherichia coli apresentou tendência para maiores valores no grupo ATB+ no D20-23 (P=0,052) e D27-30 (P=0,072). Capítulo 3 O objetivo deste capítulo foi avaliar a influência do uso precoce de antimicrobianos no perfil inflamatório de bezerras holandesas recém-nascidas por meio de provas hematológicas, imunológicas, bioquímicas e eletroforéticas. Observou-se tendência para menores valores de hemoglobina (P=0,071), CHCM (P=0,057) e ferro sérico (P=0,051) no D3-5 no ATB-. Neste momento, a frequência de anemias também foi maior no ATB- (P=0,016). O número de neutrófilos (P=0,051) e a produção espontânea de EROs foi maior no ATB-, enquanto o número de linfócitos foi maior no ATB+ (P=0,061) no D7-9. Estes dados são condizentes com as análises imunes, no qual a proporção de populações de mononucleares 1 e 2 expressando o CD62L+ apresentou tendência para maior valor no ATB+ em D3-5 (P=0,098) e D7-9 (P=0,083). Após as diarreias (D13-15), os granulócitos (P=0,043) e mononucleares (P=0,089) das bezerras ATB+ apresentaram maior intensidade de fluorescência para expressão CD62L no D20-23. O grupo ATB+ também apresentou maiores teores de beta-globulina (P=0,057), gama-globulina (P=0,069) e haptoglobina (P=0,032) no D13-15. O uso precoce de tulatromicina influenciou na microbiota intestinal, imunidade inata e ocorrência de doenças no período neonatal. / The general goal of this research was to evaluate the influence of early antimicrobial use in the gut microbiota, immune response and occurrence of diarrhea in neonate heifers. It was screened 26 neonate Holstein heifers distributed according to the application (ATB+) or not (ATB-) of tulathromycin (2.5mg/Kg - SC) from birth until 12 hours of life. Chapter 1 This chapter evaluated the influence of early use of antimicrobial in the health of neonate Holstein heifer by general clinical examination. Diarrheas were detected using score system and fecal dry matter (%), besides of respiratory score and external palpation of navel region. The performance of calves was evaluated by daily weight gain. Heifers ATB- had high frequency of paleness mucous (P=0.066) and umbilical inflammation in ATB- group on D3-5 (P=0.063) and D13-15 (P= 0.066). The frequency of fecal score 2 and 3 was similar between groups, observing peak of diarrhea on D13-15. The mean values of fecal dry matter were low in ATB+ group on D7-9 (P=0.063) and D27-30 (P=0.084). The main etiologic agent of diarrheas was Cryptosporidium and/or rotavírus. The daily weight gain (DWG) was similar between groups, observing intense decrease of DWG on D13-15. Chapter 2 The aim of this chapter was to evaluate the influence of early use of antimicrobial in the microbial gut colonization by detection of genetic bacterial material using real time PCR. It was not found difference between groups for total bacteria and C. perfringens. The calves from ATB- group had high quantity of Bifidobacterium in the fecal material on D3-5 (P=0.002) and D7-9 (P=0.018). The Lactobacillus population had a tendency (P=0.097) to have high number of DNA copies in the ATB- group. On the other hand, Escherichia coli had tendency to high values in ATB+ group on D20-23 (P=0.052) and D27-30 (P=0.072). Chapter 3 The aim of this chapter was to evaluate the influence of early use of antimicrobial in the inflammatory profile of neonate Holstein heifers by hematological, immunological and biochemical tests, besides electrophoresis. It was possible to observe lower values of hemoglobin (P=0.071), CHCM (P=0.057) and serum iron (P=0.051) in ATB- group on D3-5. In this moment, the frequency of anemia also was high in ATB- group (P=0.016). The number of neutrophils (P=0.051) and spontaneous ROSs was high in ATB- group, while the number of lymphocytes was high in ATB+ group (P=0.061) on D7-9. These data were according to immune analysis, where the proportion of mononuclear population 1 and 2 expressing CD62L+ had a tendency for high values in ATB+ group on D3-5 (P=0.098) and D7-9 (P=0.083). After diarrhea (D13-15), granulocytes (P=0.043) and mononuclear cells (P=0.089) showed high fluorescence intensity of CD62L in ATB+ heifers on D20-23. ATB+ group also had high rate of beta globulin (P=0.057), gamma globulin (P=0.069) and haptoglobin (P=0.032) on D13-15. The early use of tulathromycin had influence on gut microbiota, innate immunity and occurrence of disease in the neonatal period.

This thesis investigates the motivation behind individuals’ decision to migrate, the impact of migration on the host countries’ economies, and finally the impact of high skilled emigration on the human capital level in origin countries. Chapter 1 investigates whether ICT facilitates migration flows from origin to host countries based on the magnitude of the flows. Chapter 2 investigates the productivity effects of migration in four European Union (EU) countries: the UK, Spain and the Netherlands for 1995-2008 and Germany for 2002-2008. This analysis was carried out using EU Labour Force Survey (LFS) and EU-KLEMS data. We apply the Pooled Mean Group (PMG) variant for the autoregressive distributed-lag (ARDL) estimator. Various findings are presented in order to distinguish between EU and non-EU origins as well as the skill level of migrants. Chapter 3 contributes an insightful panel data analysis of human capital and high skilled emigration for 74 origin countries from 1980 to 2000 with a five-year frequency. We find a significant negative brain drain impact of high skilled emigration across countries sampled.

This dissertation delves into re-casted, re-negotiated, and emergent U.S. and Latino perspectives that are resulting from trans-border cultural and national fusion and undocumented Mexican immigration to the U.S. between the years 2000-2015. Five cultural products-- newspaper headlines, literature, music, political cartoons, and memes-- as produced by Mexican individuals on one side of the U.S.-Mexican Border and undocumented individuals on the other, who are part of the millennial generation, are considered against fossilized notions of gender, race, class, and national identity to determine if and how millennial Mexicans and millennial undocumented individuals are leveraging specific cultural tokens to be tools of defiance and to promulgate a re-writing of self.

Esta pesquisa aborda as relações entre os europeus e as populações ameríndias na construção da colonização da América meridional, nos limites entre os domínios dos Impérios ibéricos entre os séculos XVI e XVII. O trabalho analisa diversos modelos de ocupação e de consolidação da empresa colonial nos territórios da capitania de São Vicente, parte do Estado do Brasil, e das províncias do Paraguai e Rio da Prata, pertencentes às Índias de Castela. Por serem territórios em fronteira (ainda que não demarcada à época), é possível perceber os conflitos e ao mesmo tempo os intercâmbios entre os agentes de ambas as partes. Dentro dessa conjuntura, são analisadas as alianças e guerras entre os índios e colonizadores, as missões jesuíticas e as bandeiras efetuadas pelos moradores da capitania de São Vicente. Esses temas convergem, por sua vez, para a centralidade dos povos indígenas na compreensão desse processo. / This research approaches the relationships among the Europeans and the Amerindian populations in the construction of the colonization of southern America, in the limits among the domains of the Iberian Empires between the 16th and 17th centuries. The work analyzes several occupation and consolidation models of the colonial company in the territories of São Vicentes captaincy, in part of Brazil, and in the provinces of Paraguay and the Rio da Prata, belonging to Índias de Castela. Being territories in border (although no demarcated in that time), it is possible to notice the conflicts and at the same time the interchange among the agents of both parts. In this conjuncture, the alliances and wars are analyzed among the Indians and settlers, the Jesuit missions and the expeditions accomplished by the residents of São Vicentes captaincy. These themes converge, for their part, to the centrality of the indigenous people in the understanding of this process.

In this dissertation, I argue that two dominant perspectives on farming in Canada—the technoscientific capitalist perspective on modern industrial farming and the popular vision of hard-won survival on the family farm—both draw on narrative and aesthetic strategies that have deep roots in distinct, but related variations of the georgic tradition, which arrived in Canada in the eighteenth century and continues to shape literary representations and material practices today. Critics of Canadian literature have tended to subsume the georgic under the category of pastoral, but I argue that the georgic is a separate and more useful category for understanding the complex myths and realities of agricultural production in Canada precisely because it is a literary genre that focuses on the labour of farming and because it constitutes a complex and multi-generic discourse which both promotes and enables critique of dominant agricultural practices. I argue that, despite its sublimation beneath the pastoral, the georgic mode has also been an important cultural nexus in Canadian literature and culture, and that it constitutes a set of conventions that have become so commonplace in writing that deals with agricultural labour and its related issues in Canada that they have come to seem both inevitable and natural within the Canadian cultural tradition, even if they have not been explicitly named as georgic. By analyzing a variety of texts such as Oliver Goldmith’s The Rising Village, Isabella Valancy Crawford’s Malcolm’s Katie, Susanna Moodie’s Roughing It in the Bush, Frederick Philip Grove’s Settlers of the Marsh, Martha Ostenso’s Wild Geese, Al Purdy’s In Search of Owen Roblin, Robert Kroetsch’s “The Ledger,” Christian Bok’s Xenotext, Rita Wong’s Forage, and Phil Hall’s Amanuensis, I recontextualize Canadian writing that deals with agrarian work within two distinct but related georgic traditions. As Raymond Williams and others have shown, the georgic’s inclusion of both pastoralizing myths and material realities makes it useful for exploring ecological questions. The georgic is often understood in terms of what Karen O’Brien has called the imperial georgic mode, which involves a technocratic, imperialist, capitalist approach to agriculture, and which helped theorize and justify imperial expansion and the technological domination of nature. But as ecocritics like David Fairer, Margaret Ronda, and Kevin Goodman have argued, the georgic’s concern with the contingency and precariousness of human relationships with nonhuman systems also made it a productive site for imagining alternatives to imperial ways of organizing social and ecological relations. Ronda calls this more ecologically-focused and adaptable georgic the disenchanted georgic, but I call it the precarious georgic because of the way it enables engagement with what Anna Tsing calls precarity. Precarity, as Tsing explains, describes life without the promise of mastery or stability, which is a condition that leaves us in a state of being radically dependent on other beings for survival. “The challenge for thinking with precarity,” she writes, “is to understand the ways projects for making scalability have transformed landscape and society, while seeing also where scalability fails—and where nonscalable ecological and economic relations erupt” (42). By tracing the interplay between imperial and precarious georgic modes in Canadian texts that have mistakenly been read as pastoral—from Moodie’s settler georgic to the queer gothic georgic of Ostenso’s Wild Geese to the provisional and object-oriented georgics of Robert Kroetsch and Phil Hall—I argue that the precarious georgic strain has always engaged in this process of thinking with precarity, and that it holds the potential for providing space to re-imagine our ecological relations.
