Previous issue date: 2007-06-22 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / This work broaches the participation of the Jewish community in the urban expansion of Recife, Brazil, during the Dutch period (1630-1654). With the arrival of the Dutch, the village of Olinda, former capital of Pernambuco, was destroyed and Recife received the juridical statute of city (stad), becoming the capital of Dutch Brazil or New Holland. It became the main West Indians Company s entrepot in South Atlantic, serving as naval base, port of call for ships, and point of export of the sugar production of Pernambuco, and import of European goods and African slaves. In order to such administrative, military and economic functions be carried out, the sand isthmus where Recife used to stay, and the fluvial island of Ant?nio Vaz, received improvements of many sort. The Dutch hydraulic technology was put in practice, with a posture of opposition between civilization and nature. Among military works and production of urban equipments, the rivers shores were land-filled, canals were built, bridges were lifted, and hundreds of buildings were erected. The civil Dutch population of Recife engaged in the process of production of physical space, which brought a sense of collective action towards the formation of the urban, or burgher, community. From the physical to the social space, there was an effort towards Dutch cultural standards in the urban environment.
The Zur Israel Jewish community, formed by private civilians, it is, nonemployees of the WIC, engaged in those processes. It produced physical space through the land-filling and improvement of non healthy areas, and was also responsible for the construction of a significant section of the town s buildings and some of urban equipments, such as stores, markets and slave-warehouses, making more dynamic their economical activities. But their social traffic was due to the adaptation of their behavior to the standards of Dutch sociability. Thus, the community body made itself part of the social body. Disposing of internal selfregulation, it produced spaces with their cultural references cemetery, synagogue, texts enjoying benefits of the government. Zur Israel inscribed itself in the universal history of the Jews as the first community of Americas, and had a fundamental part on the emancipation of Jews within Western society / Este trabalho aborda a participa??o da comunidade judaica na expans?o urbana do Recife, durante o per?odo neerland?s (1630-1654). Com a chegada dos flamengos, a vila de Olinda, antiga capital de Pernambuco, foi arrasada e o Recife recebeu o estatuto jur?dico de cidade, tornando-se capital do Brasil Neerland?s, ou Nova Holanda. O Recife tornou-se o principal entreposto da Companhia das ?ndias Ocidentais no Atl?ntico Sul, servindo de base naval, de escala para embarca??es, al?m de ponto de escoamento da produ??o a?ucareira pernambucana, e de importa??o de mercadorias europ?ias e escravos africanos. Para que fossem executadas fun??es administrativas, militares e econ?micas, o istmo arenoso onde ficava o Recife, e a ilha fluvial de Ant?nio Vaz, recebeu beneficiamentos de diversas naturezas. A tecnologia hidr?ulica neerlandesa foi posta em pr?tica, trazendo uma postura de oposi??o entre civiliza??o e natureza. Entre obras militares e de produ??o de equipamentos urbanos, aterrou-se margens de rios, construiram-se canais, ergueram-se pontes, levantaram-se centenas de edif?cios. A popula??o neerlandesa civil do Recife engajou-se neste processo de produ??o de espa?o f?sico, que trazia um senso de a??o coletiva para forma??o da comunidade citadina, ou burguesa. Do espa?o f?sico ao social, houve um esfor?o para o estabelecimento de padr?es culturais neerlandeses no ambiente urbano. A comunidade judaica Zur Israel, formada por civis particulares, isto ?, n?o empregados da WIC, engajou-se nestes processos. Produziu espa?o f?sico atrav?s de aterros e beneficiamento de ?reas pouco salubres e tamb?m foi respons?vel pela constru??o de boa parte dos edif?cios da cidade e de alguns equipamentos urbanos, como lojas, mercados, e senzalas, catalizando sua atua??o econ?mica. Mas seu tr?nsito na sociedade deu-se atrav?s do processo de perfilamento do comportamento de seus membros aos padr?es de sociabilidade neerlandeses. Assim, o corpo comunit?rio fazia-se parte do corpo social. Dispondo de auto-regulamenta??o interna, produziu espa?os imbricados de suas refer?ncias culturais cemit?rio, sinagoga, textos desfrutando de benef?cios por parte do governo. A Zur Israel inscreveu-se na hist?ria universal dos judeus como a primeira comunidade do continente Americano, que veio a ter um papel fundamental na emancipa??o dos judeus no ?mbito da sociedade ocidental
