Revista Gil Blas e o nacionalismo de combate (1919-1923)

O livro analisa a revista Gil Blas, fundada por Álvaro Bomilcar e Alcebiades Delamare em 1919, no Rio de Janeiro, e cuja importância histórica reside principalmente no extremado nacionalismo de sua linha editorial. Em quatro anos, foram publicadas 164 edições da revista, que passou por várias fases, caracterizadas por propostas nacionalistas diversas, as quais imprimiram um caráter bastante dinâmico a seus objetivos. A publicação alcançou tamanha relevância em sua época que chegou a servir como porta voz do governo Epitácio Pessoa (1919-1923) e a reunir o que se tornaria o arcabouço das várias concepções nacionalistas que vigorariam ao longo da década de 1920. O objetivo deste trabalho foi, principalmente, distinguir os projetos defendidos nas páginas da revista e, ainda, esclarecer se havia consonância entre seu ecletismo e seu posicionamento político e doutrinário. O autor também se debruça sobre o projeto temático-editorial da revista, que continha grande diversidade de seções e artigos, cobrindo as mais diferentes áreas, de esporte e literatura a política, passando pelas questões relativas ao operariado, quase sempre com viés nacionalista que beirava a xenofobia

Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) and rheumatoid arthritis

Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919), one of the world's most celebrated impressionist painters, suffered from rheumatoid arthritis for most of his life. His symptoms developed when he was in his 50s and they became aggressive at about the age of 60 years that led to almost complete disability when he was 70 years old. Although the deformities he suffered because of the rheumatoid arthritis were disabling, Renoir never stopped painting nor decreased the quality of his work. The transition between styles adopted by the painter (Impressionist, Dry and Pearly periods) bear no relationship to the stages of flare-ups or the establishment of joint deformities due to rheumatoid arthritis. His work shows aspects of the body's ability to overcome pain and physical limitation.

Population biology of the barbel drum Ctenosciaena gracilicirrhus (Metzelaar, 1919) (Perciformes: Sciaenidae) in Caraguatatuba Bay, Southeastern Brazil

This study evaluated the population biology of Ctenosciaena gracilicirrhus (Perciformes: Sciaenidae) in a shallow non-estuarine coastal area of southeastern Brazil. Monthly samples were taken from October 2003 through October 2004, in two distinct areas at depths from 1 to 4 m. C. gracilicirrhus was generally among the most abundant fish species during the period. Its density was significantly higher in a single sampling month, May 2004, in the South area, which may be explained by its migratory behavior together with its preference for deeper areas. Such behavior may lead to bias in community estimates that use few or only seasonal samples. C. gracilicirrhus individuals ranged from 4.0 to 10.2 cm long, with a main mode from 7.5 to 9.0 cm and a significant decrease in mean size from June onward. The estimation of body growth parameters was compromised by this population feature. Similarly, the prey spectrum was difficult to determine because of the deteriorated condition of the stomach contents, although crustaceans were clearly the most important items ingested. Amphipoda was the only subgroup that could be identified more precisely, mainly by the construction of their tubes.

Desarrollo embrionario y estudio morfométrico de la fase lecitotrófica de larvas de medregal negro (Seriola rivoliana Valenciennes, 1883)

[EN]The present study describes the main embryonic stages and larval development, in culture conditions, of the almaco jack until the fifth day of life. Also a morphometric study of the eggs and larvae from induced spawning was realized. Larval hatching occurred at 36 hours from fertilization. At 60 hours after hatching, 100% of the larvae had their mouths open. At 72 hours all the larvae had a swimming bladder and a digestive tract sufficiently formed to start exogenous feeding.

El emigrante retornado a Gran Canaria desde Cuba, 1919-1950. Breve estudio sobre las remesas de los emigrantes retornados y su incidencia en la sociedad canaria

[ES] Conocer las características de la migración canaria de principios del siglo XX resulta fundamental para la actual sociedad isleña: en primer lugar porque su influencia, ya sea en la esfera económica, social o ideológica, ha sido determinante para la configuración de nuestra actual sociedad; en segundo lugar, porque nos ayuda a entender un poco mejor un fenómeno que ahora ha revertido su tradicional tendencia: Canarias es tierra de inmigrantes. Este artículo supone un acercamiento al ámbito económico de ese fenómeno con especial incidencia en las remesas.

Italia e Francia nell'Ungheria di Trianon (1919-1939): due modelli di penetrazione politico-culturale

Italy and France in Trianon’s Hungary: two political and cultural penetration models During the first post-war, the Danubian Europe was the theatre of an Italian-French diplomatic challenge to gain hegemony in that part of the continent. Because of his geographical position, Hungary had a decisive strategic importance for the ambitions of French and Italian foreign politics. Since in the 1920s culture and propaganda became the fourth dimension of international relations, Rome and Paris developed their diplomatic action in Hungary to affirm not only political and economic influence, but also cultural supremacy. In the 1930, after Hitler’s rise to power, the unstoppable comeback of German political influence in central-eastern Europe determined the progressive decline of Italian and French political and economic positions in Hungary: only the cultural field allowed a survey of Italian-Hungarian and French-Hungarian relations in the contest of a Europe dominated by Nazi Germany during the Second World War. Nevertheless, the radical geopolitical changes in second post-war Europe did not compromise Italian and French cultural presence in the new communist Hungary. Although cultural diplomacy is originally motivated by contingent political targets, it doesn’t respect the short time of politics, but it’s the only foreign politics tool that guarantees preservations of bilateral relations in the long run.

Il teorema di Cook-Levin e i SAT-solver

In questa tesi è trattato il tema della soddisfacibilità booleana o proposizionale, detta anche SAT, ovvero il problema di determinare se una formula booleana è soddisfacibile o meno. Soddisfacibile significa che è possibile assegnare le variabili in modo che la formula assuma il valore di verità vero; viceversa si dice insoddisfacibile se tale assegnamento non esiste e se quindi la formula esprime una funzione identicamente falsa. A tal fine si introducono degli strumenti preliminari che permetteranno di affrontare più approfonditamente la questione, partendo dalla definizione basilare di macchina di Turing, affrontando poi le classi di complessità e la riduzione, la nozione di NP-completezza e si dimostra poi che SAT è un problema NP-completo. Infine è fornita una definizione generale di SAT-solver e si discutono due dei principali algoritmi utilizzati a tale scopo.
