Detective fiction highlights those qualities of masculinity that are most valuable to a contemporary culture. In mysteries a cultural context is more thoroughly revealed than in any other genre of literature. Through the crimes, an audience can understand not only the fears of a particular society but also the level of calumny that society assigns to a crime. As each generation has needed a particular set of qualities in its defense, so the detective has provided them. Through the detective's response to particular crimes, the reader can learn the delineation of forgivable and unforgivable acts. These detectives illustrate positive masculinity, proving that fiction has more uses than mere entertainment. In this paper, I trace four detectives, each from a different era. Sherlock Holmes lives to solve problems. His primary function is to solve a riddle. Lord Peter Wimsey takes on the moral question of why anyone should detect at all. His stories involve the difficulty of justifying putting oneself in the morally superior position of judge. The Mike Hammer stories treat the difficulty of dealing with criminals who use the law to protect themselves. They have perverted the protections of society, and Hammer must find a way to bring them to justice outside of the law. The Kate Martinelli stories focus more on the victims of crime than on the criminals. Martinelli discovers the motivations that draw a criminal toward a specific victim and explains what it is about certain victims that makes villains want to harm them. All of these detectives display the traditional traits of the Western male. They are hunters; they protect society as a whole. Yet each detective fulfills a certain cultural role that speaks to the specific problems of his or her era, proving that masculinity is a more fluid role than many have previously credited.

The dissertation is dealing with work of Viennese architect and builder from the first half of the 18th century Antonio Ehorto Martinelli in the Schwarzenberk's service in the years 1722-1732. It contains an index of buildings, that Martinelli was working on for Schwarzenberks, including contentious and mistakenly ascribed buildings. The collected information is based on study of extant archival collections, on field research of separate buildings and on study of the relevant literature. The main goal was an evaluation of separate Martinelli's architectural fruitions relating to history of art, and furthuremore an attempt to compare them both within the bounds of the whole architect's work and within the bounds of contemporary Czech and Austrian architecture. The knowledge of work of A. E. Martinelli in the Shwarzenberk's service was markedly extended on the occasion of dealing with the settled topic and moreover a few little and even a few bigger new pieces of knowledge appeared, e.g. information about concerned gangers, building development of the studied objects out of the settled period etc.

The experiences of those who have faced dictatorial impositions should be examples of the struggle for a better country. In this way, Raphael Martinelli's memoirs become important for the understanding of the period for this research, from 1939 to 1973. Trade unionism, especially in the Santos Jundiaí railroad, and the struggle against the civil-military dictatorship established after 1964, are examples of topics to be reflected and observed, so that we can review concepts and values today. This work attempts to trace a biography of political activist Raphael Martinelli, who has his life summarized in: a quick pass for youth football, the team of the São Paulo Athletic Club, current National Athletic Club, the experience of being a railroad in the São Paulo Railway, the presidency of the Railroad Workers' Union in São Paulo and the National Federation of Railroad Workers, head of the CGT, political persecution with the 1964 coup, participation in the National Liberation Action (ALN) and imprisonment in 1971, in Operation Bandeirante (Oban). The documentation used for this research is summarized in the biography “Iron Stations: Raphael Martinelli”; documents from your personal collection, such as police records, videos, interviews. To know the history of Martinelli is to get in touch with moments of political and social changes of our country. Its context of life is marked by four central points, that divided the chapters of this thesis: soccer, railroad, syndicalism and armed struggle. The themes are discussed from their experiences and memories. Through them we can see other possibilities, from a country that at the moment when it was learning to discuss democratic issues, such as the Basic Reforms, proposed by President João Goulart; and the relations between workers through their main representation, the union, suffered a heavy blow, with the seizure of power by the military, backed by civilian sectors, as wealthy landowners / A história recente de nosso país é formada pela violência institucional e pelo desrespeito ao estado de direito. As experiências daqueles que enfrentaram as imposições ditatoriais devem ser exemplo da luta por um país melhor. Dessa maneira, as memórias de Raphael Martinelli tornam-se importantes para o entendimento do período destinado à esta pesquisa, 1939 a 1973. O sindicalismo, em especial na ferrovia Santos Jundiaí, e a luta contra a ditadura civil-militar, instaurada a partir de 1964, são exemplos de temas a serem refletidos e observados, de maneira que possamos rever conceitos e valores nos dias de hoje. Nesse trabalho, tentamos traçar uma biografia do militante político Raphael Martinelli, cuja vida pode ser resumida em: uma passagem rápida pelo futebol na juventude, no time do São Paulo Athletic Clube, atual Nacional Atlético Clube; a experiência de ser ferroviário na São Paulo Railway; a presidência do Sindicato dos Ferroviários, em São Paulo; e da Federação Nacional dos Ferroviários; dirigente do Comando Geral dos Trabalhadores (CGT); a perseguição política com o golpe de 1964; a participação na Ação Libertadora Nacional (ALN); e a prisão em 1971, na Operação Bandeirante (Oban). A documentação que utilizamos para essa pesquisa resume-se na biografia “Estações de Ferro: Raphael Martinelli”; em documentos de seu acervo pessoal, tais como: fichas policiais, vídeos, entrevistas. Conhecer a história de Martinelli é entrar em contato com momentos de mudanças políticas e sociais de nosso país. Seu contexto de vida é marcado por quatro pontos centrais, que dividiram os capítulos desta tese: futebol, ferrovia, sindicalismo e luta armada. Os temas são discutidos a partir de suas experiências e memórias. Por meio delas, torna-se possível observarmos outras possibilidades de um país que – no momento em que estava aprendendo a discutir questões democráticas, como as Reformas de Base, propostas pelo presidente João Goulart, e as relações entre trabalhadores, por meio de sua principal representação, o sindicato – sofreu um duro golpe, com a tomada do poder pelos militares, apoiados por setores civis, como ricos proprietários
