Os Donos de São Benedito: convenções e rebeldias na luta entre o catolicismo tradicional e devocional na cultura de Bragança, século XX

Esta dissertação discute as imagens e representações encontradas na Literatura e as lutas pelo controle da cultura no exemplo da Festividade, da Irmandade e da Marujada de São Benedito, na cidade de Bragança, Estado do Pará, na Amazônia brasileira, a partir da década de 1930, no século XX. Analisando uma farta bibliografia nos temas Folclore, Memória, Tradição Popular e Antropologia, o estudo tenta explicar como se construíram as relações sociais entre os sujeitos históricos da Igreja Católica pela Prelazia do Guamá e da Irmandade do Glorioso São Benedito de Bragança, relacionando-os com o recurso literário e com os principais teóricos da historiografia, para entender o catolicismo popular e oficial em suas representações assim como os símbolos construídos no tempo, como elementos da História de tensão entre as ideias e regras de controle eclesiástico católico e a reação popular dos irmãos de São Benedito.

Essays in Applied Health Economics: Evidence on Health and Health Care in Italy and UK

This thesis is the result of my experience as a PhD student taking part in the Joint Doctoral Programme at the University of York and the University of Bologna. In my thesis I deal with topics that are of particular interest in Italy and in Great Britain. Chapter 2 focuses on the empirical test of the existence of the relationship between technological profiles and market structure claimed by Sutton’s theory (1991, 1998) in the specific economic framework of hospital care services provided by the Italian National Health Service (NHS). In order to test the empirical predictions by Sutton, we identify the relevant markets for hospital care services in Italy in terms of both product and geographic dimensions. In particular, the Elzinga and Hogarty (1978) approach has been applied to data on patients’ flows across Italian Provinces in order to derive the geographic dimension of each market. Our results provide evidence in favour of the empirical predictions of Sutton. Chapter 3 deals with the patient mobility in the Italian NHS. To analyse the determinants of patient mobility across Local Health Authorities, we estimate gravity equations in multiplicative form using a Poisson pseudo maximum likelihood method, as proposed by Santos-Silva and Tenreyro (2006). In particular, we focus on the scale effect played by the size of the pool of enrolees. In most of the cases our results are consistent with the predictions of the gravity model. Chapter 4 considers the effects of contractual and working conditions on selfassessed health and psychological well-being (derived from the General Health Questionnaire) using the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS). We consider two branches of the literature. One suggests that “atypical” contractual conditions have a significant impact on health while the other suggests that health is damaged by adverse working conditions. The main objective of our paper is to combine the two branches of the literature to assess the distinct effects of contractual and working conditions on health. The results suggest that both sets of conditions have some influence on health and psychological well-being of employees.

La persona en Pedro Lombardo y sus antecedentes en Alcuino

Las Sententiae de Pedro Lombardo es, en la Edad Media, el libro más comentado luego de la Biblia. Se trata de una “colección" de las doctrinas teológicas vigentes a partir de la contribución de los Padres y de otros maestros más cercanos en el tiempo. En este trabajo se buscará identificar el estado de la cuestión acerca del concepto de persona en la obra de Alcuino de York como antecedente del desarrollo que esta misma noción tendrá en Pedro Lombardo. En primer lugar se determinará la presencia del concepto boeciano de persona en la obra de Alcuino y, luego, el desarrollo que este mismo maestro realiza de este concepto motivado por la necesidad de establecer las características de la persona de Cristo. En tercer lugar se analizará la aplicación que efectúa de lo ya definido al caso de la persona humana. Finalmente, se estudiará la aplicación de estas nociones a un caso concreto pero particularmente significativo para el desarrollo de la metafísica altomedieval: el poder político.

O imaginário das ilhas atlânticas no universo medieval islâmico-cristão

O pensamento cultural medieval aparece-nos como herdeiro da Antiguidade Clássica, da sua filosofia, ciência, arte e mitos. Todos estes conceitos traduzem-se com facilidade para as elites intelectuais cristãs e muçulmanas, que os conservam e integram em elementos da sua própria cultura. A ideia do mar, em especial o mar dito ‘aberto’ como o Oceano Atlântico, é marcada pelo maravilhoso. Em plena Idade Média o Oceano Atlântico surge como território de Caos, envolto em mistério. O Oceano Atlântico é local das mais variadas manifestações do fantástico. Desta forma, as ilhas atlânticas, contidas neste vasto oceano, são elas próprias impregnadas de um carácter maravilhoso. Tentaremos, ao longo desta dissertação de mestrado, abordar a questão das ilhas atlânticas e das suas características a nível de imaginário. Este exercício será feito, sempre que possível, fazendo o cruzamento de fontes de origem islâmica e de origem cristã. Desta maneira, surgirá uma imagem comum em relação ao imaginário do Oceano Atlântico e, em especial, das ilhas neste contidas. O objetivo principal deste trabalho é verdadeiramente demonstrar pontos de aproximação entre relatos e mapas, de origem cristã e islâmica, ligados a ilhas fantásticas e, ao mesmo tempo, reais. Veremos que as duas categorias, do real e do imaginário, sobrepõem-se diversas vezes, sendo que não se conseguem muitas vezes distinguir a nível das fontes. Desta forma, relatos de navegações atlânticas como a de São Brandão (de origem celto-cristã) ou a dos Aventureiros de Lisboa (originária no al-Andalus,) são reveladoras das atitudes e ideias na Idade Média em relação ao Atlântico e às suas ilhas.
