In the year 1755, the lower part of the city of Lisbon was hit by a severe earthquake. Immediately following the earthquake a complex reconstruction process began, which introduced new urban, architectural and constructional concepts. This resulted in the creation of new innovative rentable buildings termed the Pombaline rentable buildings, after the Marquis of Pombal who directed their construction. This thesis comprises a wide ranging and detailed study of these buildings. At the beginning of this work, in Chapter I, "The Pombaline rentable building" is placed in its historical context. The origins of the old city are described and its historical development within Portugal. The results and consequences of the 1755 earthquake are outlined, and the subsequent process of reconstruction is described. All immediate measures, decrees, and proposals for the reconstruction of the city, plus Manuel da Maia's Dissertations, are carefully compared and analysed, as are the various plans proposed for the reconstruction. The preceding periods of Portuguese Architecture are studied to identify possible origins for the architecture of the Pombaline rentable buildings. Also a clear definition of the Pombaline Rentable building and the limits of the genuine Pombaline area are established. In Chapter II the general methodology used in the research is described, which includes a survey of 315 buildings and a documentary search for material relating to the construction of the buildings. In Chapter III an analysis is made of the general external and internal architectural characteristics of the rentable buildings. An extensive search for original drawings, produced drawings only of the elevations of the main streets. These are carefully analysed and compared with existing buildings and a classification system is developed. A complete survey by the author of the buildings' interiors, for which no documentary information exists, reveals a great complexity and variety of interior plans. To achieve a systematic classification of the interiors particular aspects are analysed including, the types of stairs, the organization of the interior spaces, the building location and the finishing details. Chapter IV describes some of the technical innovations shown by the rentable buildings, particularly those referring to earthquake resistance in construction and to prefabrication. During the survey of plans and elevations the Author identifies evidence for the existence of prefabrication, in terms of sizes of components, tolerances and detailing. This evidence is supported indirectly by documentary material although the extent of documentation is very limited. vii Possible evidence for an evolutionary development in the internal plan and design of the buildings based upon the position of stairs in the buildings is presented in Chapter V. An attempt is made to relate this classification to the dates of construction of the different buildings. This is achieved by an analysis of previous tax records which enable numbers of buildings constructed on different streets at different periods to be determined. Based on this analysis the evidence for an evolutionary development is discussed. In Chapter VI the Pombaline rentable buildings of Lisbon are compared with other contemporary developments at Porto Cövo, Vila Real and Manique do Intendente in order to assess the influence of the Pombaline development, both in terms of the architecture and the construction processes, on other construction projects outside Lisbon. Chapter VII discusses the principal findings of the research and their importance in the context of Portuguese architecture.

The Lusitanian Basin of West-Central Portugal is one of a family of formerly adjacent North Atlantic margin basins. Like others of its type (e.g. the Jeanne d'Arcand Western Approaches basins) early phases of rifting and subsidence occurred as far back as the Triassic. During the Late Jurassic rifting phase in the development of the Lusitanian Basin marine shelf and slope systems were replaced by alluvial fan and fluvial environments which prograded from the nonh during the late Kimmeridgian. Continental environments, periodically punctuated by marine incursions, persisted over northern and central areas of the basin at least until the end of the Jurassic. The deposits of these continental and shallow marine systems are here defined as the Lourinha formation, which is sub-divided into five members. Sedimentary structures, textures and sand body geometries suggest that the Praia da Amoreira member was deposited in a distal alluvial fan setting where sheet-flooding preceded the establishment of channelised flow. The presence of calcretes suggests a semi-arid/sub-tropical climate with markedly seasonal rainfall. The fan systems,confined to the western margin of the basin, passed laterally into meandering fluvial systems, the deposits of which form the Porto Novo member. A marine transgression from the south resulted in the establishment of shoal-water delta systems, the deposits of which form the Praia Azul (lower delta plain) and Assenta (upper delta/fluvial plain) members. The largely continental Assenta member is punctuated by thin, laterally extensive marine horizons which suggest rapid relative rises in sea level. In northem and eastern parts of the basin the deposits of sandy fluvial systems are replaced by those of the gravelly Santa Rita member, which appear to have been sourced from the east. In a number of the above units evidence for the operation of active extensional processes is to be found The deposition of the Lourinha formation preceded the final Aptian rifting event which resulted in the formation of the North Atlantic Ocean. However, it may have heralded and been contemporaneous with, an earlier phase of sea floor spreading, later abandoned, thought to have occurred In the area of the present day Tagus Abyssal Plain.

Sistematizamos sua obra cinematográfica em dois momentos distintos: o Bloco das Cartas de Fontaínhas, formado pelos longas-metragens "Casa de lava" (1994) e pela Trilogia das Fontaínhas - composta por "Ossos" (1997), "No quarto da Vanda" (2000) e "Juventude em marcha" (2006) -, além dos curtas-metragens "Tarrafal" (2007), "A caça ao coelho com pau" (2007) e "Lamento da vida jovem" (2012); e o Bloco da Poética das Artes, composto por "Onde jaz o teu sorriso?"

Systematized his work into two distinct phases: Letters from Fontaínhas, formed by: "Down to earth" (1994), the trilogy Letters from Fontaínhas - consisting of "Ossos" (1997), "In Vanda's room" (2000) and "Collossal youth" (2006) -, in addition to the short films "Tarrafal" (2007), "The rabbit hunters" (2007), and "Sweet exorcist" (2012). The second phase, called Poetics of Arts, is formed by "Where does your smile lie?" (2001), "Change nothing" (2009), and the short film "Seis bagatelas" (2003) / Mestrado / Multimeios / Mestra em Multimeios

Embora a presença do cristianismo não tenha durado mais de um século, os religiosos conseguiram atingir grandes cifras de conversões, apesar da cultura nipônica se mostrar tão diferente da ocidental. Porém, ainda que tenham obtidos inúmeros êxitos, os jesuítas também se deparavam com diversos percalços na tentativa de expandir a fé cristã na região. Buscaremos analisar nas cartas produzidas pelos religiosos, como suas justificativas sobre os reveses da cristianização eram alteradas de acordo com o contexto político e social japonês. Ao longo do trabalho, destacaremos também importantes questões como as interações culturais entre Ocidente e Oriente, influência política e militar dos jesuítas na Japão, bem como a construção do discurso nas missivas inacianas. / This paper aims to understand the discourse of the Jesuit about the mishaps found in the evangelization of Japan although the presence of Christianity has not lasted more than a century, the religious have achieved large numbers of conversions, despite the Nipponese culture is so different from western show. However, although they have achieved numerous successes, the Jesuits were also faced with many setbacks in trying to expand the Christian faith in the region. We will seek to analyze the charts produced by the religious, as it justifications about the Christianization setbacks were changed according to the political and social context Japanese. Throughout the work, also highlight important issues such as cultural interactions between East and West, political and military influence of the Jesuits in the region, as well as the construction in the ignatian’s letters.
