The 19th Century Tombstone Database Project Records, 1790-1890 (non-inclusive)

The 19th Century Tombstone Database project was funded by the program Federal Summer Youth Employment scheme in the summer of 1982 and led by Dr. David W. Rupp, a Professor at the Classics Department, Brock University. The main goal of the project was to collect information related to various cemeteries in Niagara region and burials that took place from 1790-1890. Data was collected and presented in the form of data summary forms of persons, tombstone sketches, photographs of tombstones, maps, and computer printouts. The materials created as a result of a research completed for the 19th Century Tombstone Database project are important as a number of the tombstones have been damaged or gone missing since the research was finished. Before Dr. Rupp retired from Brock University, he donated project materials to the Brock University Special Collections and Archives.

L'art de propagande en Espagne, de la Seconde République au premier franquisme : affiches et portraits officiels

This thesis questions the major esthetic differences between the artistic productions of the Second Spanish Republic (1931-1939) and the nationalist artistic productions of the Civil War years and the first decade of the francoist dictatorship. These differences are analysed using the artistic productions of Josep Renau (1907 Valence – 1982 Berlin East) and of Ignacio Zuloaga (Elibar 1870 – Madrid 1945). Renau was an important artistic figure during the Spanich Republic. In this thesis, we analyse Renau’s different propaganda productions between 1931 and 1939. Zuloaga was an international artist when the nationalist uprising occurred in 1936. He was recognized by the European elites for his portraits of Andalousian and Castillian sceneries. Zuloaga supported the nationalist putsch and the francoist ideology. In 1939, the Caudillo ordered the painting of the portrait that we will be analysing. The theories of François Hartog, Reinhart Koselleck, Paul Ricoeur and Hannah Arendt are used to analyse the historical conceptual confrontation in Spain, portrayed by the artworks that we studied. During the Republic, it was the modern historical regime that was in force. The historical references used are close in time and the history is constructed in the future and attached to the idea of progress. With the nationalists, the historical conception is connected to the Historia magistra where the past is used as an example. In the first francoism, a return to Spain’s glorious past (the Middle Ages, the Golden Century and the Counter Reform) is clearly claimed in order to rescue the country from the ills of modernity. It is with these different historical conceptions in mind that we compare the esthetics specificities of the artworks, the identity and historical references and the mediums used to legitimize the power and the political actions of each front.

Politica urbana e participação popular na região metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro: (1975-1982)

Nesta monografia, especificamente voltada para o caso brasileiro, examinamos a maneira como é encarada a clientela potencial da política urbana (a população atingida), o valor dado ou aceito da sua possível participação na implantação das ações da política (componente ativo, agente), a intensidade dessa participação (nos casos onde existe), e a identificação de critérios diferentes para a elaboração das políticas em distintos níveis hierárquicos da estrutura governamental (União, Estados, Municípios). Dentro do grande tema da participação popular na implementaçao da política urbana brasileira,lo objetivo central da pesquisa foi o de estudar os modos de articulação da política urbana com as estruturas formais organizadas pela população receptora daquela política, e os efeitos concretos que essa articulação provocou nas modalidades de atuação das próprias entidades representativas. Em síntese, o objetivo geral do trabalho é o de estudar o modo específico de articulação da política urbana na Região Metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro, isto é, a conexão entre a política publica e a clientela na fase de implementação, nos seus níveis operacional e informal, mas limitada a população favelada e no período que vai desde a Fusão (1975) até a eleição que levou Brizola a governador (1982).
