The ethnography presented here was produced by the Ticuna artisans women from two distinct regions in the state of Amazonas: one by the upper Solimões river, in three communities that make up the Santo Antonio Indigenous community and in the Barro Vermelho community, and, in Manaus, by some Ticuna artisans women who live in the capital. It is a record of the Ticuna women’s practice, made by monitoring the baskets making process, since the moments prior to the weaving activity (harvesting, drying, dyeing), until the connections that such activity establish in social life and in their cultural prescriptions. Along the way, I identified counting processes, forms of material selection, methods used to measure, among other features observed in the making of baskets and that are in the categories of understanding. It shows how much artisans' practice is representative and how much it highlights the place of women in their society, either because of their prestige in the way today's communities closest to the cities are organized, or due to their authority as having the knowledge of the Ticuna ritual practices. The drawings in the pacará baskets were identified and classified as a sign, and its meanings attributed by the Ticunas, considering the combination of the different manifestations that these representations appear in ritual practices and artifacts. Finally, we make an overview of the communities surveyed and the network that revolves around the practice of women, implying aspects of culture, social life and interaction with the surrounding society. / O fio condutor do presente estudo foi a prática das artesãs Ticuna na construção dos cestos pacará. A etnografia aqui apresentada foi produzida junto a mulheres artesãs Ticuna de duas regiões distintas do Amazonas: a do Alto Solimões, nas três comunidades que compõem a Terra Indígena Santo Antônio e na comunidade Barro Vermelho, e em Manaus, com algumas artesãs Ticuna residentes na capital. Trata-se de um registro da prática das mulheres, feito a partir do acompanhamento do processo de confecção dos cestos, desde os momentos que antecedem a atividade de tecer (colher, secar, tingir), até as conexões que, a partir dessa atividade, estabelecem-se na vida social e nas prescrições da cultura. Nesse percurso, identifiquei processos de contagem, formas de seleção do material, modos utilizados para medir, dentre outros aspectos observados na construção dos cestos e que são relativos às categorias de entendimento. Demonstra-se como a prática das artesãs é representativa na sua sociedade e destaca o lugar da mulher, seja por seu prestígio nas formas como hoje se organizam nas comunidades mais próximas das cidades, seja por sua autoridade como detentora de um conhecimento das práticas rituais dos Ticuna. Procedeu-se à identificação e classificação dos grafismos constituintes do cesto pacará, na sua condição de signo, verificando suas conexões com os significados atribuídos pelos Ticuna, considerando a combinação das diferentes manifestações em que essas representações aparecem, nas práticas rituais e nos artefatos. Por fim, tecemos um panorama das comunidades pesquisadas e da rede que se estende em torno da prática das mulheres, implicando aspectos da cultura, da vida social e do convívio com a sociedade envolvente.

Este trabalho faz um levantamento da produção brasileira de luteria experimental, com ênfase na produção realizada ao longo das últimas duas décadas. Inicialmente é delineado um panorama de referências relacionadas com este tido de produção na literatura europeia e estadunidense, assim como discutida a atuação de alguns artistas e criadores fundamentais para o estabelecimento de práticas de luteria experimental no século XX. No segundo capítulo faço um levantamento de referências sobre este tipo de produção no Brasil, assim como relaciono artistas em atividade no país nos últimos 20 anos, detalhando na maior parte dos casos algumas de suas obras. Partindo deste panorama, realizo um estudo mais aprofundado sobre o instrumento conhecido por gatorra, fabricado por Tony da Gatorra, artesão, técnico em eletrônica e músico gaúcho que criou seu instrumento nos anos 1990 a partir de materiais de sucata, componentes eletrônicos reaproveitados e da combinação de projetos de circuitos eletrônicos geradores de som. Por fim, relaciono a produção estudada com referenciais que lidam com a noção de cultura material, alguns dos quais já realizam uma aproximação com a atividade musical e artística. / This work presents a survey on the Brazilian production of experimental lutherie, with emphasis on the production over the last two decades. A framework of references related to this production in the European and American literature is outlined as an introduction, as well as the works of some key artists and creators whose production influenced experimental instrument building practices in the 20th century. In the second chapter I make a survey of references on this type of production in Brazil, as well a profile of artists active in the country for the last 20 years, detailing in most cases some of his works. Based on this outline, I carry out a more detailed study on the instrument known as gatorra, manufactured by Tony da Gatorra, an artisan, technician and musician who created his instrument in the 1990s from scrap materials, reused electronic components and the combination of electronic circuits sound generators. Finally, I relate the production studied with references that deal with the notion of material culture, some of which already make an approximation with musical and artistic activity

O presente trabalho tem como objeto a visualidade e a materialidade do livro didático pro- duzido pela Companhia Editora Nacional desde o início de suas atividades, em 1926, após sua fundação por Monteiro Lobato e Octalles Marcondes Ferreira, até 1980, quando foi incorporada a um grupo editorial que possuía estrutura própria de produção dos livros. Durante três décadas, a Nacional foi a maior editora do país e seus livros estiveram presentes na formação intelectual e de gosto de diversas gerações de brasileiros, produzindo memória individual e coletiva e integrando a cultura material e visual do país em sua época. Assim, o amplo levantamento produzido por esta pesquisa de memória gráfica, de cunho panorâmico e exploratório, pretende contribuir para integrar o livro didático, pouco estudado por ter uso temporal restrito e não possuir valor literário e científico, ao rol dos artefatos gráficos merecedores de atenção dos estudos de cultura material e de história do design brasileiro. Utilizando como critério exclusivo as características materiais e visuais das obras, o trabalho identificou seis momentos diferenciados na produção de design da editora, abordando em cada um deles possíveis nexos entre sua materialidade e visualidade e os principais fatores ou contextos nelas atuantes: a educação (estrutura de ensino, abordagens peda- gógicas e cultura escolar), a produção (tecnologia e práticas de trabalho) e as linguagens visuais e gráficas circulantes em cada época. A direção geral identificada nesse percurso foi de um mo- mento inicial caracterizado por extrema sobriedade e formalidade de capas exclusivamente tipo- gráficas e soluções padronizadas de composição e diagramação nos miolos até um momento final caracterizado por capas ilustradas ou fotográficas e soluções mais particularizadas e com forte presença de elementos pictóricos nos miolos. A par do desenvolvimento das tecnologias gráficas para a reprodução das imagens, o percurso mostra a própria trajetória das relações da cultura es- colar com as demais esferas da vida social no aspecto da visualidade, indo de um momento inicial de maior isolamento e retração a influências externas à cultura escolar até um momento de maior flexibilidade e permeabilidade a elas, particularmente à influência dos meios de comunicação de massas, com a valorização da imagem que os caracteriza. / The focus of this investigation was the visuality and materiality of school textbooks produced in Brazil by the Companhia Editora Nacional from its inception in 1926 by writer Monteiro Lobato and Octalles Mar- condes Ferreira to 1980, when the enterprise was incorporated into a publishing group operating under a proprietary publishing approach. For three decades, Nacional was the country\'s largest publisher, and its titles became integral to the intellectual training of, as well as to the development of book appreciation among, a number of Brazilian generations, while helping to build both individual and collective memory and integrate Brazil\'s material and visual culture during the period. As part of this panoramic, exploratory investigation of editorial graphic memory, an extensive survey was conducted willing to push the inclusion of school textbooks--to date poorly studied, given their limited useful lifespan and lack of first-hand liter- ary or scientific value--into a roster of graphic artifacts insufficiently addressed in investigations of Bra- zilian design history and material culture. Drawing exclusively on the material and visual characteristics of the books, six periods were identified in the design production at Nacional. For each period, the study addressed possible connections between, on the one hand, materiality and visuality and, on the other, the principal factors or contexts influencing the material and visual character of textbooks--namely, education (educational structure, pedagogical approaches, and school culture), production (technology and work practices), and the visual and typographic languages available at the time. A general trajectory was identified in this evolution, spanning from an initial point in time, characterized by the stark simplicity and formality of all-type covers and standardized textblock typography and layout, to a final period, character- ized by handmade or photography-based artwork and more individualized solutions, with a strong pres- ence of pictorial elements in the textblock. In addition to the growing refinement of graphic technologies for image reproduction, the trajectory reveals an evolution of the relationships established between school culture and other spheres of social life in terms of visuality, extending from an initial point in time, marked by a more pronounced isolation from and avoidance of influences foreign to the school culture, to a period of more evident flexibility and permeability to these influences, particularly those conveyed by mass media, with their intrinsic valuing of images.

A presente pesquisa propõe a análise das relações entre criadas e patroas, na cidade de São Paulo, entre as décadas de 1870 e 1920, a partir das diferenças étnicas, sociais e de gênero (re)produzpidas no espaço doméstico. Utilizando como principal corpo documental os manuais de prescrição de conduta (manuais de etiqueta, de economia doméstica, de puericultura e de higiene e saúde), o intuito é compreender a formação identitária a partir do uso de objetos e espaços, entendidos estes como indutores de comportamentos e hábitos corporais. / This work is an attempt to analyze the relations between servants and mistresses, in São Paulo, between the 1870s and 1920s, from ethnic, social and gender differences (re)produced in the household. Considering different kinds of manuals etiquette, housekeeping, childcare and hygiene and health we intend to understand how identities are connected with the use of objects and spaces in the house.

Det övergripande målet för detta arbete ligger i att utveckla samarbetet mellan aktörerna i det uppdragsarkeologiska verksamhetsfältet, i syfte att optimera urvalet och användningen av de ting som genereras och blir till ett kulturarv. Tyngdpunkten i licentiatuppsatsen ligger på de processer och strukturer som ligger till grund för formering av samlingarna och genom vilka det arkeologiska källmaterialet får en ny identitet som musealt kulturarv. Studien tar sin utgångspunkt i följande forskningsfrågor: Hur har arkeologins utveckling till uppdragsarkeologi som ett eget fält påverkat samlingarna? Med vilka effekter? Hur påverkar kommunikation och begreppsval processflödet som förvandlar källmaterial till ett kulturarv? Med vilka konsekvenser? I studien undersöks organisationsstrukturen för verksamhetsfältet och granskas hur kommunikationsprocesser påverkar vad fältet genererar. Fyndhanterings- och värderingsprocesser analyseras utifrån organisationsstrukturella förutsättningar, den historiska utvecklingen av enskilda professioner i verksamhetsfältet, samt kommunikationen aktörerna emellan. Studien genomförs med actor-network-theory som utgångspunkt och använder ett lingvistiskt perspektiv. Den bygger på litteratur- och dokumentstudier underbyggda med en fallstudie som kombinerar en enkät med en komparativ analys över urval och gallring av källmaterial. Studien visar hur verksamhetsfältets organisationsstruktur samt kontrollen på, och uppföljning av, fyndhanteringsprocessen leder till en skev representation av ting i samlingarna, med en förvanskad syn på det förflutna som effekt. Detta förstärks av ”kulturarvsparadoxen” – motsättningen mellan mål och uppdrag, eller teori och praktik, med ursprung i en tudelad begreppsförståelse kring vad som är kulturarv och vilket syfte det tjänar. / This study aims at improving cooperation and communication between actors in the field of Swedish contract archaeology in order to maximize the benefits of their work. It addresses two research questions: How did the development of archaeology into contract archaeology as an independent business affect museum collections in Sweden? And: How do communication and terminology affect the processes that transform material culture into cultural heritage? Departing from “actor-network-theory” and taking a linguistic perspective, I first examine closely some important processes and structures behind the making of heritage. The background of contemporary contract archaeology is then illuminated through a literature study focusing on the history of and current practices in contract archaeology, conservation practice and museum management. Later, I investigate the particular effects of contract archaeology on museum collections. This is based in part on a comparative analysis of selection and de-selection processes of artefacts in collections and partly on a survey among contract archaeologists. I conclude with a discourse analysis of policies and other governing documents, highlighting the significance of communication and terminology in processes during which archaeological artefacts acquire a new identity as cultural heritage. The study shows how the contemporary system of contract archaeology creates a biased representation of (pre-)history, as selection and de-selection processes of artefacts in museum collections are affected by various internal practices and external demands that ultimately shape cultural heritage. This bias is not helped by the fact that those collecting the artefacts in the field use different terminology compared with those collecting in museums. I argue that behind this gap lies the “cultural heritage paradox” which derives from different understandings and aims of cultural heritage by different actors.

本文以解除神話性(de-mythicization) 的概念開啟對童話(fairy tales)的討論，認為必須加入歷史、文化、政治與物質等層面的解說才能擺脫童話中被添加的神話性並豐富童話的閱讀。接著以物質文明的角度切入女性主義經常閱讀的文本—貝侯的《灰姑娘》 (1697) 與電影《麻雀變鳳凰》(1990)，探討物質文明在兩個文本中所扮演的重要角色。 貝侯所擁護的現代主義(modernism)促使其改寫法國民間故事(folktales)，並在文中加入了大量的十七世紀法國當代物質文明，企圖重新塑造出新一代的法國文學。因此，貝侯的《灰姑娘》並非一般人所熟知的麻雀變鳳凰典型，而是一個關於恢復她貴族身分的故事。在貝侯筆下所塑造出來的灰姑娘與當時的時代背景息息相關：一個世故、聰明與積極的女性，試圖脫離她的苦難，並非大家所熟知的好心的、被動的、順從的灰姑娘形象。 電影《麻雀變鳳凰》則提供不同時代灰姑娘形象的對照。延續維多利亞時期在地化的灰姑娘形象，Vivian成為最低下的灰姑娘—流鶯。她由麻雀變鳳凰的經歷除了說明不同時代對美的詮釋與期待亦呈現出八零年代不同的灰姑娘形象：一個同時具有性感與善心的女性。 在美國，男子氣概的研究始於八零年代。因此本文以Edward的男性氣概為出發點，探討八零年代的物質文明，並以此看出對於男性的期待都建構在他的所有物，如轎車、總統套房以及馬球等等。此外，Edward身為男性灰姑娘與神仙教父的身分在本章皆有所探討。 最後必須闡明的是，物質文明並不見得能涵蓋所有的層面，尤其是在集體意識與個人偏好的部分，是無法找到一個平衡點的。本文僅能就現有的資料加以觀察與解析，以期達到較全面的觀察。 / To de-mythicize a fairy tale means to discover its cultural, historical and political aspects and therefore, in my thesis, it helps to distinguish Perrault’s Cendrillon (1697) from other Cinderella variants. My thesis approaches Perrault’s Cendrillon in a materialist method: with the employment of the late seventeenth-century French material culture, Cendrillon is transformed into a modernized literary fairy tale about her restoration to her original social status. This French Cinderella is quite distinct from the traditional rags-to-riches Cinderella story since Perrault champions a modernism with which he intends to change the future of the French literature. The film Pretty Woman (1990) is to serve as a contrast and to elucidate the idea that different eras make different Cinderella stories. The Cinderella in the Anglophone world is getting more and more debased and the Americanized Cinderella is the most debased ever, the street walker. Her rags-to-riches transformation manifests the social expectations toward in the eighties toward what a woman should be and possess. On the other hand, there is another side of the story in the film. On Edward’s part, I am going to approach the material culture via American masculinities in order to illustrate what a man should be and have. Besides, Edward also plays the roles of the male Cinderella and the fairy godfather in the film. The two roles Edward plays will be further developed in my thesis. The materialist approach has its own limits: it cannot include the conformist and the individualist aspects and I thus fail to incorporate it in my thesis.

‘Celebrity’ has become a growing field of critical inquiry and cultural interest in twenty-first century society. Celebrities embody a host of meanings and engender larger ideological and discursive practices, in which they articulate expressions of social, cultural and political power that attach meaning to public individuals. Beginning with the late-twentieth century, celebrities have come to occupy spaces that exist beyond popular culture platforms, most notably in politics and international diplomacy. In spite of its typical association with superficial discussions of gossip and cheap entertainment, celebrities have become the site of anxiety in a capitalist society. To come to terms with these growing anxieties concerning celebrity and its accoutrements, this thesis explores the embedded complexities and consequences of the celebrity system within the framework of what has dubiously been called ‘celebrity politics.’ Through a detailed examination of this phenomenon, this thesis explores the coalescing spheres of Hollywood and the White House, where ‘celebrity’ and ‘politician’ have become interchangeable monikers. In addition to examining the historical conditions that have given rise to the phenomenon, this study examines contemporary articulations of the ‘celebrity politician,’ focusing on Angelina Jolie, Sean Penn and President Barack Obama. Discussion of these figures is framed by critical theory and media studies to better understand their location within the contemporary Western landscape.

Esta investigación tiene como objetivo indagar sobre los antecedentes y la evolución de la educación infantil a través del método Froebel en España. En diferentes países ha sido un tema abordado ampliamente por la historiografía educativa en los últimos años. Algunos de estos estudios se han realizado utilizando el marco comparado internacional. Para poder insertar el caso español en dicho marco sería necesario un estudio previo que sitúe los antecedentes, influencias e interpretación del mismo en el contexto histórico educativo del país. La investigación que trata de abordar dicho estudio y que contempla fuentes y agentes implicados en el proceso de recepción e interpretación. La reconstrucción histórica de la recepción, difusión y consolidación de determinados elementos de la cultura material constituyen en sí mismos la radiografía de la implantación de una reforma educativa en un país determinado / This research project has the objective of investigating the backgrounds and evolution of the early childhood education in order to the spread of Froebel method in Spain. In different countries has been a topic widely discussed by historians of education in recent years. Some of these studies have been carried out using the international comparative framework. In this framework the Spanish case should be require a previous study that puts the background, influences and interpretation of the historical context in the country's education. This investigation tackles this study and considers sources and agents involved in the process of reception and interpretation. The historical record of the reception, dissemination and consolidation of specific elements of material culture provide in themselves an X-ray of the introduction of educational reforms in a country

This dissertation is rooted in one general question: what can the wood from ships reveal about the people and cultures who built them? Shipwrecks are only the last chapter of a complex story, and while the last fifty years of nautical archaeology have managed to rewrite a number of these chapters, much of the information unrelated to a ship’s final voyage remains a mystery. However, portions of that mystery can be exposed by an examination of the timbers. An approach for the cultural investigation of ship timbers is presented and attempts are made to establish the most reliable information possible from the largely unheralded treasures of underwater excavations: timbers. By introducing the written record, iconographic record, and the social, economic, and political factors to the archaeological record a more complete analysis of the cultural implications of ship and boat timbers is possible. I test the effectiveness of the approach in three varied casestudies to demonstrate its limits and usefulness: ancient Egypt’s Middle Kingdom, the Mediterranean under Athenian influence, and Portugal and the Iberian Peninsula during the Discoveries. The results of these studies demonstrate how ship timbers can be studied in order to better understand the people who built the vessels.
