Autonomia e hierarquia em duas comunidades de escravos : Os casos George (Alabama, Estados Unidos, 1847) e Lino (Vassouras, Brasil, 1871)

This article seeks argue that the search for autonomy among slaves necessarily created hierarchies within the community where they were inserted. Through two cases compared, George in U.S. and Lino in Brazil, seeks to show that a notion of slave community was built by the social actors who were part of it

EPICA Dome C Ice Core Timescales EDC3

The EPICA (European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica) Dome C drilling in East Antarctica has now been completed to a depth of 3260 m, at only a few meters above bedrock. Here we present the new EDC3 chronology, which is based on the use of 1) a snow accumulation and mechanical flow model, and 2) a set of independent age markers along the core. These are obtained by pattern matching of recorded parameters to either absolutely dated paleoclimatic records, or to insolation variations. We show that this new time scale is in excellent agreement with the Dome Fuji and Vostok ice core time scales back to 100 kyr within 1 kyr. Discrepancies larger than 3 kyr arise during MIS 5.4, 5.5 and 6, which points to anomalies in either snow accumulation or mechanical flow during these time periods. We estimate that EDC3 gives accurate event durations within 20% (2 sigma) back to MIS11 and accurate absolute ages with a maximum uncertainty of 6 kyr back to 800 kyr.

EPICA Dome C Ice Core 800KYr deuterium data and temperature estimates

A high-resolution deuterium profile is now available along the entire European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica Dome C ice core, extending this climate record back to marine isotope stage 20.2, ~800,000 years ago. Experiments performed with an atmospheric general circulation model including water isotopes support its temperature interpretation. We assessed the general correspondence between Dansgaard-Oeschger events and their smoothed Antarctic counterparts for this Dome C record, which reveals the presence of such features with similar amplitudes during previous glacial periods. We suggest that the interplay between obliquity and precession accounts for the variable intensity of interglacial periods in ice core records. Temperature was estimated after correction for sea-water isotopic composition (Bintanja et al, 2005) and for ice sheet elevation (Parrenin et al, 2007) on EDC3 age scale (Parrenin et al, 2007).

Borges y sus editores : Itinerarios de Fervor de Buenos Aires (1923-1977)

En el marco del campo de estudios sobre las relaciones entre editores y escritores (Undsel 2004), este trabajo propone el estudio de un caso singular: el de Fervor de Buenos Aires, el inaugural poemario de Jorge Luis Borges. Publicado por primera vez en 1923, fue reeditado de distintas formas y a través de diferentes editoriales. Cada una de estas distintas ediciones presenta un complejo sistema de correcciones y borramientos. En este artículo nos centraremos en el estudio del recorrido editorial del libro donde se materializa ese sistema de correcciones y borramientos
