[pt] A partir de uma série de atividades focadas no manejo de moedas, esta dissertação centra-se na apresentação de um estudo de temas canônicos do currículo escolar, circunscritos à História do Brasil Republicano. O objetivo principal consistiu em promover a construção do conhecimento histórico na educação básica, colocando o aluno como sujeito da produção de saberes e o professor como mediador deste processo. Inicialmente, buscou-se analisar a produção dos alunos, visando identificar os efeitos que o manejo das fontes numismáticas pode ter sobre a sua aprendizagem quanto ao conhecimento histórico. Os passos seguintes foram: avaliar como os alunos fazem uso das ferramentas de análise; estimular o processo de aprendizagem a partir de linguagens diversificadas, bem como promover a proteção do patrimônio cultural. Os resultados obtidos no uso destas fontes foram avaliados no intuito de verificar a viabilidade ou não do uso da Numismática como um instrumento que permita a construção do processo de ensino e aprendizagem em História. / [en] Based on a series of activities focused on the handling of coins, this dissertation focuses on the presentation of a study of canonical themes of the school curriculum, circumscribed to the history of Republican Brazil. The main objective was to promote the construction of historical knowledge in basic education, placing the student as the subject of knowledge production and the teacher as mediator of this process. Initially, we sought to analyze the students production, aiming to identify the effects that the management of numismatic sources can have on their learning regarding historical knowledge. The next steps were: to evaluate how students use the analysis tools; to stimulate the learning process using diverse languages, as well as to promote the protection of the historical heritage. The results obtained in the use of these sources were evaluated in order to verify the feasibility or not of using numismatics as an instrument that allows the construction of the teaching and learning process in history.

In the British Empire many revolutionary changes took place from the 1850s. In my thesis I focused on the analysis of those issues and phenomena which are sufficiently reflected in the English-language belles-lettres, along with a comparison of topics in a historical context in those thematic areas where the comparison is possible, but even in those where possibility of feedback is missing. Given the specificity of the whole work is an introduction and conclusion concerns the question of literary texts as a study of sources. The aim is to answer the question whether the use of belles-lettres as a source in this particular topic is possible, and if so, under what conditions.

<p>This thesis explores content design – an area which encompasses the practices and the conceptions of the description, organisation and manipulation of digital content. The overall aim was to identify and examine principles, methods and tools appropriate for content design within the humanities and the social sciences.

These resources were encoded according to the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) guidelines with the purpose to denote specific structures and semantic features of the content. The thesis demonstrates how the prosopographical collection, stored in a master file in TEI/XML format, was encoded and organised and then further transformed, migrated and manipulated by other tools and to other platforms.

Another conclusion is that such digital collections, provided with markup, could be treated as research tools themselves, because they lend themselves much more than simply access, retrieval or reading. In this prosopographical collection, the markup contributes to make explicit the underlying theories and thus provides scholars, teachers and students with tools to reuse and rearrange the content for other kinds of uses in other areas. </p>

It is intended that the Center will be encharged of promoting projects related to the constitution of a set of collections with historical and documental contents, that will be able to contribute to the development of academic research and the valorization of Mozambican history and culture. The Center will have the oral history as its main methodological research tool. The collections, that will be formed based upon different projects, will be the result of interviews, recorded with actors who come from different social strata, all of them directly envolved in important events of Mozanbican recent history. These interviews should be available at the Center, altogether with other kinds of sources, gathered and organized with the objective of constituting a reference center related to the Mozanbique’s contemporary history. All the Center activities will be supported by projects of teams’ qualification. In this sense, the Center will have to deal with two basic fields: the research, production, preservation and diffusion of sources to the national contemporary history; and the didactic-pedagogical support to the different levels of learnship process. / A presente dissertação tem como objetivo central propor a criação do Centro de Pesquisa e Documentação de História Oral e Ciencias Sociais na cidade da Beira, em Moçambique. Pretende-se, com o Centro, promover projetos que possibilitem a constituição de acervos de caráter histórico e documental, contribuindo, assim, para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa acadêmica e para a valorização da história e da cultura Moçambicanas. O Centro terá como principal ferramenta metodológica de pesquisa a história oral. O acervo a ser constituído no contexto de distintos projetos resultará, portanto, de entrevistas gravadas com atores de diferentes extratos sociais, todos eles participantes diretos de eventos relevantes da história recente de Moçambique. Essas entrevistas deverão estar disponíveis, no Centro, juntamente com outros tipos de fontes, coletadas e organizadas com o objetivo de constituir um centro de referência sobre a história contemporanea do país. Toda a atividade do Centro será acompanhada de projetos de qualificação de equipes. Neste sentido, o Centro terá de lidar com dois importantes campos: a pesquisa, produção, preservação e difusão de fontes para a história contemporânea; e o apoio didático-pedagógico aos diversos níveis do processo de aprendizagem.

Fontes históricas de diferentes naturezas como jornais, diarios, almanaques, cartas, relatos de viagens, entre outros foram consultadas no intuito de comprovar hipótese que manifestações da Pequena Idade do Gelo, que entre os séculos 14 e 19 afetaram sensivelmente as sociedades do Hemisfério Norte, teriam também sido sentidas no território paulista. Mais de 7 mil consultas foram feitas, resultando em 1355 registros sobre tempo e clima entre 1550 e 1927, que após serem revisadas possibilitaram sistematizar 685 eventos que contêm claramente a data, local e descrição do fenômeno climático. A quantidade de registros mencionando frio, temperaturas baixas e geadas praticamente se equipara aos registros sobre chuvas, sendo também mais que o dobro do número de informações sobre calor, corroborando a hipótese de que também no estado de São Paulo o período atual tem sido menos frio do que o passado / Abstract: This research aimed to reconstruct the climatic history of São Paulo State, from the colonial period to the beginning of the 20 century. Distinct historical sources like journals, diaries, almanacs, letters, expedition records, among others, were consulted to verify the hypothesis, i.e., that manifestations of the Little Ice Age, which significantly affected the Northern Hemisphere societies between 14 and 19 century, were also experienced in the territory of São Paulo. More than 7,000 queries were made, resulting in 1,355 weather and climate records between the years of 1550 and 1927, which were revised and then systematized into 685 events that contain clearly date, localization and the phenomenon description. The quantity of data mentioning cold, low temperatures and frosts is practically the same of the number of records of rain, and more than twice of warm events, reinforcing the hypothesis that also in São Paulo the current period has been less cold than the past / Doutorado / Análise Ambiental e Dinâmica Territorial / Doutor em Ciências

Dissertation "The Image of Freedom in the Views of Historical Sources of Czech Society of Non-aristocratic Origin in the Revolutionary Year of 1848" The political tensions of the first half of the 19th century, a very stormy period from the political and social points of view, culminated in a significant revolutionary movement in 1848. Although Europe of the early 19th century was strongly influenced by the Enlightenment and ideals of the French Revolution, the Czech Lands were also subjected to long-term Napoleonic wars, which were followed by the conservatively oriented regime of Emperor Franz I. and his chancellor Prince Metternich. These developments profoundly influenced the mental worlds of people of non-aristocratic origin, even though this same social group still remembered the image of the enlightened "Peasant Emperor", Josef I., as well as the mottos of French Jacobins. Finally, this society gradually became acquainted with the liberal ideas then spreading from Western Europe. These liberal ideas encouraged this social group to fight for a juster social order and greater recognition for itself. Their ideas about freedom supported the reestablishment of society on new political, social and economic bases. The Revolutionary Year of 1848 brought fundamental changes and new ideological...

Este estudo se dedica a uma parte pouco conhecida dos trabalhos de Leonhard Euler (1707 - 1783) relacionado à música enquanto uma ciência matemática. Tais trabalhos mostram, em certo sentido, um lado pitagórico do pensador e também algumas contribuições do mesmo à teoria musical. O interesse deste matemático pelo assunto permeia várias obras e épocas de sua vida, mas neste trabalho focamos em três delas: um conjunto de nove cartas que compõem a obra Lettres a une princesse dAllemagne sur divers sujets de physique e de philosophie (1768) e dois artigos, Conjecture sur la raison de quelques dissonances generalement reçues dans la musique (1766) e De harmoniae veris principiis per speculum musicum repraesentatis (1774). Para possibilitar uma melhor compreensão desses textos, faremos uma revisão histórica do tratamento aritmético dado à música desde os tempos clássicos até o Renascimento com enfoque nas principais contribuições que levam à construção da escala da entonação pura ou justa, trabalhada por Euler nos originais estudados. Após a apresentação e análise desses trabalhos eulerianos, especialmente seus diagramas para representar sons e acordes e do seu expoente de um acorde para medir consonâncias, terminaremos essa dissertação refletindo sobre as implicações pedagógicas e históricas, bem como as potencialidades e limitações do uso de fontes originais de determinados mestres do pensamento matemático ocidental, nomeadamente o próprio Euler, na formação de matemáticos, professores e licenciados. / This present research takes a journey into a little know part of Leonhard Eulers works about music as a mathematical science. Those works show, at certain level, his Pythagorean thoughts and also his contributions to music theory. Eulers interest for this subject permeates many of his works through his lifetime (1707 - 1783), but here we focus on three of them: a set of nine letters from the book Lettres a une princesse dAllemagne sur divers sujets de physique e de philosophie (1768), and two articles, Conjecture sur la raison de quelques dissonances generalement reçues dans la musique (1766) and De harmoniae veris principiis per speculum musicum repraesentatis (1774). To allow a better understanding of his ideas, first we put on a historical review of the arithmetic treatment of music since the ancient Greece to the Renaissance Era pointing out the main contributions to the development of the pure just intonation scale, the one used by Euler on the works just mentioned. After presenting and analyzing these Eulers contributions, specially his diagrams to represent sounds and chords to the eyes and the concept of exponent of a chord to measure consonances, we conclude this dissertation thinking about the pedagogical and historical impact, and also the potential and limitations concerning the use of historical sources of the masters of mathematics, to the training of future mathematics and teachers.
