Dos prelos da impressão régia, a cultura científica do período joanino (1808-1821)

O presente estudo examina o momento fundador da imprensa no Brasil em 1808 e a rotina de funcionamento da Impressão Régia, no Rio de Janeiro, entre 1808 e 1821. Qual era sua estrutura administrativa, sua ordem de despesas, a natureza das ocupações funcionais, enfim, qual era a lógica de funcionamento da casa impressora oficial da Corte no início do Oitocentos? Qual o lugar ocupado pelos impressos naquele contexto?Para melhor compreender a estrutura, a rotina administrativa e de funcionamento da Impressão Régia no Rio de Janeiro, mas, principalmente, os usos e funções da régia tipografia no momento de seu estabelecimento por iniciativa do príncipe regente d. João, foi analisada também parte de sua produção, qual seja, os títulos dedicados às Ciências e às Artes. A partir desses livros, localizados no acervo da Biblioteca Nacional do Rio de Janeiro e na Biblioteca Guita e José Mindlin, em São Paulo, foram estudadas as características biobibliográficas de seus autores e a relação dos mesmos com o poder oficial.Foi possível identificar que os autores dos títulos examinados eram herdeiros da tradição ilustrada portuguesa. Partilhando de uma mesma cultura política, possuíam laços estreitos com membros da Corte, prestando obediência ao príncipe, sendo alguns autores, inclusive, integrantes da junta diretora da Impressão Régia.Assim, além da rotina e funcionamento da casa impressora da Corte, no Rio de Janeiro de d. João, o presente trabalho examina tomando como fonte de análise sua produção editorial no campo das Ciências e das Artes a formação da cultura científica do período Joanino e a rede de sociabilidades existente no Rio de Janeiro, entre 1808 e 1821.

Ruolo e limiti del contratto negli assetti familiari in funzione successoria

The Article 457 c.c. expressly excludes the contract by the sources of the succession. Moreover, the article 458 c.c., apart from the initial brief aside dedicated to the institute of the family pact, agrees nullity of the agreements with whom someone decides its own succession as well as those with which the future successor could decide about his rights or renounce to them about a succession not yet open. However, for a long time, the Italian doctrine wonders about the role of the contract within the succession law. It feels, in fact, the need to expand the private autonomy within the inheritance that is excessively sacrificed by the prohibition of succession agreements and by the norms for the protection of legitimate heirs. The reasons which led the legal science to these conclusions are based on different events, both social and economic, that push the interpreter to a modernization of dogmatic categories with which he can represent the succession mortis causa. In addiction, it is necessary to underline the crisis of the agreements mortis causa due to this economical and social events: as a matter of fact, the will, as the only way to give the assets post mortem, revealed itself incomplete and extremely severe compared to the new social needs. In fact, increasingly the way to give the assets happens out of the inheritance and despite to the institutions designed by the law. For these reasons, in order to adapt the system of succession to modern economic and social needs, the doctrine has identified, within the system, institutions of a contractual nature in order to better achieve the interests of private, obviating the limits assigned to the shop last will. And recently, in this context, our legislator has introduced the institution of the family pact (art. 768 bis et seq. c.c.), that is the agreement through “the entrepreneur transfers, in whole or in part , the company, and the holder of equity investments transfers, in whole or in part, its shares, to one or more descendants". While, however, part of the doctrine encourages the provision of tools that enable a person to have in advance of his succession, on the other hand there are those who promote the centrality of the will within our legal system and calls for the revitalization in respect of its vast potential is not always adequately exploited. This research aims to verify whether the contract can find importance within the phenomenon of succession for the inter vivos transfer of family assets and if the same has the characteristics to be considered a working alternative to the will. In the present work will be analyzed, in addition, some of the institutions that the doctrine has considered alternatives to the will and particularly the institution of the family pact. The survey will also be directed to the limits that the private autonomy and the legislator met in the use of the contractual instrument, limits that are mostly originated by the rules and principles of the law of succession.

An Irish apostle: articulating and actualising apostolicity in the early Irish church

This thesis examines the earliest extant Latin Lives of Brigit and Patrick; Cogitosus’s Vita Brigidae and Muirchú’s Vita Patricii as evidence for a seventh-century debate on Irish apostolicity. While often dismissed as mere propaganda, this thesis shows they are highly sophisticated demonstrations of the continuing connection that Kildare and Armagh had to their patron saints and their authority. It examines the importance of this connection for concepts of ecclesiastical organisation, teaching authority and episcopal succession against the backdrop of the seventh-century Easter question in the Insular Church. This will show that apostolicity was considered to be intrinsically linked with orthodoxy and universality. A textual focus brings forth general patristic themes and ideas that Irish hagiographers evoked through specific words and phrases. The thesis contextualises hagiographical material using evidence from Hiberno-Latin and early Insular exegetical commentaries, referring to major patristic exegetes such as Origen, Jerome, Augustine, and Gregory the Great as support. The introduction discusses the importance of apostolic ideology for the seventh-century Irish Church, and outlines a methodology for examining such abstract themes. The first chapter looks at how developments in apostolic ideology led to ideas of apostolic primacy seen in the Insular material. Chapters two, three, and four examine metaphors of food and feeding, the fountain and the stream, and the head and the body, as significant articulations of apostolicity. Chapter five examines how corporeal relics were understood as the visible proof of this continuity and preserved a saint’s authority for their episcopal heirs. Chapter six looks at how Muirchú engaged with Patrick’s connection to the universal Church and his self-professed lack of disciplina to reconcile his apostolicity with seventh-century norms. Chapter seven places the issues considered thus far in a thoroughly Insular context by examining how the earliest English sources present the Irish legacy in Northumbria after the synod of Whitby. Chapter eight looks at how the text of Patrick’s Confessio in the Book of Armagh relates to a wider seventh-century campaign by Armagh to rehabilitate Patrick’s apostolicity. The conclusion briefly summarizes the thesis, and suggests further avenues for researching this topic in the Insular material

I wanna be a protocol: online media and electronic structures of kinship

Heidegger famously identified Modernity with a technological leveling of being to a single order of a “standing reserve.” In a radically different tone, Gilles Deleuze articulated a single “plane of immanence” within which ontological distinctions between mind and body, God and world, interiority and exteriority become indiscernible. Taking such philosophical declarations as points of departure, this panel will consider how a collapse of ontological distinction emerged as a thematic and structural trope in literary and cinematic modernisms. We hope to consider how writers and film-makers of the 20th c. utilize the resources of their media to ask “the question of being” that troubled their philosophical contemporaries and heirs. In this vein, we will examine how these modernist ontologies of immanence describe the crisis of a subject saturated and eclipsed by a world which comprises her while also remaining strange or opaque. Papers will ask what is lost with the departure of a distinctly human sense of “being” and how the historical arrival of an alternative ontological order may be evident in the lived experience of modernity. In this sense, the relationship to departures and arrivals becomes the modern subject’s suspicion that he is unable to do either vis á vis the world.

The Ocho Poetas Mexicanos and the marginalisation of Catholic authors in post-revolutionary Mexico

The group known as the Ocho Poetas Mexicanos were marginalised in post-revolutionary literary circles and remain largely forgotten by literary history because they were dismissed as Catholic authors by a literary establishment which favoured nation-building literature at a time when Catholicism was excluded from official constructions of nationhood. This article draws attention to the significant contribution made by group members to contemporary cultural life and re-evaluates the work they published in the 1955 anthology which announced their arrival onto the literary scene. An analysis of this collection demonstrates that there was scant justification for labelling the group as Catholic poets and suggests that they are best understood with reference to the “universal” strand of Mexican literature and as heirs to groups such as the Contemporáneos. The treatment of the Ocho Poetas provides important evidence of the way in which Catholic authors were marginalised in mid-twentieth century Mexico, even if they did not express religious beliefs in their work, and draws attention to the non-literary criteria which can come into play when evaluating texts.

O processo de herança na família envelhecida

A herança material é um tema fulcral para as pessoas idosas e suas famílias. No entanto, o conhecimento sobre este tema é ainda escasso. Este estudo tem por finalidade explorar o processo de transmissão da herança, analisar os significados e valores das heranças e suas implicações nas relações e bem-estar na velhice. Contempla o enquadramento da herança no ciclo da vida familiar, análise dos perfis de transmissão da herança, organização das relações de entreajuda entre doadores e herdeiros, explorações dos significados e valores dos bens materiais e aprofundamento dos significados e valores emocionais da herança para doadores e herdeiros. Os resultados sugerem que a herança material é um processo normativo no ciclo da vida familiar, constituindo um ponto focal para a reorganização das relações familiares e bem-estar emocional do idoso. O processo é governado por um sistema de significados e valores orientado para a união e lealdade familiar, reciprocidade da ajuda familiar e igualdade (entre irmãos/herdeiros). Este estudo apresenta limitações, sendo relevante melhorar e expandir os resultados através da análise de diferenças, considerando o sexo, classe socioeconómica, contexto de residência e estrutura familiar (nomeadamente, famílias reconstituídas, pessoas solteiras, casais sem filhos), bem como aprofundar a significação dos valores identificados.
