Eça de Queirós na Gazeta de Notícias (Rio de Janeiro): a função social do jornal

There will be a review on the collaboration of Eça de Queirós in Gazeta de Notícias (Rio de Janeiro-1880-1897), written directly to the Brazilian public. In some of these texts Eça makes reflections on the mediation that the newspaper plays in society, particularly in southern Europe. We believe that in these texts there are manifestations and traits of doctrinal-programmatic nature, metalitterary aspects and also a kind of history of occidental press. These press texts are now gathered in Textos de Imprensa IV – da Gazeta de Notícias, which includes the volume critical edition of the works of Eça de Queirós, coordinated by Carlos Reis. The study of these texts will contribute to the analysis and interpretation of his fiction and journalistic works.

A redescription of a common euryhaline cumacean from southern Brazil: Diastylis sympterygiae Bacescu & Queiroz, 1985 (Crustacea: Cumacea)

Diastylis sympterygiae Bacescu & Queiroz (1985) has been reported in many ecological studies conducted in the Patos Lagoon, southern Brazil. However, the original description of this species is based on damaged specimens from stomach contents of rays, and therefore insufficient for a confident identification. In the present contribution, based on a large number of well-preserved specimens now available from the type locality area, the description of this common euryhaline species is completed and its range of distribution as far north as Sao Paulo is extended.

Origens dos empresários da indústria de máquinas e equipamentos em São Paulo, 1870-1900

O objetivo específico deste artigo é identificar as origens dos empresários, como nacionalidade e gênese do capital para o início da atividade, na indústria de máquinas e equipamentos em São Paulo, e a evolução do setor no período de 1870 a 1900. Tentamos identificar os empreendimentos na indústria e sua relação com o comércio importador e exportador, com os fazendeiros de produtos para exportação (principalmente o café), com os imigrantes comerciantes e com os que possuíam algum conhecimento técnico.

Machado de Assis e Eça de Queirós: para além da polêmica...

Quando se pensa nas relações entre Machado de Assis e Eça de Queirós é comum referir-se à polêmica travada em torno da repercussão de O primo Basílio no Brasil. Obviamente, vários outros aspectos podem ser considerados quando se propõe uma reflexão sobre diálogos possíveis entre os dois grandes autores das literaturas de língua portuguesa no século XIX. O nosso objetivo aqui é discutir como a presença do clero e a relação com a religião são retratadas, sobretudo, em duas obras desses escritores: Dom Casmurro e A relíquia.

The Social City : Middle-way approaches to housing and sub-urban golvernmentality in southern Stockholm, 1900-1945

This dissertation deals with the period bridging the era of extreme housing shortages in Stockholm on the eve of industrialisation and the much admired programmes of housing provision that followed after the second world war, when Stockholm district Vällingby became an example for underground railway-serviced ”new towns”. It is argued that important changes were made in the housing and town planning policy in Stockholm in this period that paved the way for the successful ensuing period. Foremost among these changes was the uniquely developed practice of municipal leaseholding with the help of site leasehold rights (Erbbaurecht). The study is informed by recent developments in Foucauldian social research, which go under the heading ’governmentality’. Developments within urban planning are understood as different solutions to the problem of urban order. To a large extent, urban and housing policies changed during the period from direct interventions into the lives of inhabitants connected to a liberal understanding of housing provision, to the building of a disciplinary city, and the conduct of ’governmental’ power, building on increased activity on behalf of the local state to provide housing and the integration and co-operation of large collectives. Municipal leaseholding was a fundamental means for the implementation of this policy. When the new policies were introduced, they were limited to the outer parts of the city and administered by special administrative bodies. This administrative and spatial separation was largely upheld throughout the period, and represented as the parallel building of a ’social’ outer city, while things in the inner ’mercantile’ city proceeded more or less as before. This separation was founded in a radical difference in land holding policy: while sites in the inner city were privatised and sold at market values, land in the outer city was mostly leasehold land, distributed according to administrative – and thus politically decided – priorities. These differences were also understood and acknowledged by the inhabitants. Thorough studies of the local press and the organisational life of the southern parts of the outer city reveals that the local identity was tightly connected with the representations connected to the different land holding systems. Inhabitants in the south-western parts of the city, which in this period was still largely built on private sites, displayed a spatial understanding built on the contradictions between centre and periphery. The inhabitants living on leaseholding sites, however, showed a clear understanding of their position as members of model communities, tightly connected to the policy of the municipal administration. The organisations on leaseholding sites also displayed a deep co-operation with the administration. As the analyses of election results show, the inhabitants also seemed to have felt a greater degree of integration with the society at large, than people living in other parts of the city. The leaseholding system in Stockholm has persisted until today and has been one of the strongest in the world, although the local neo-liberal politicians are currently disposing it off.

Ecología y estatus trófico del erizo de mar Diadema antillarum (Philippi, 1845) en los fondos rocosos de las Islas Canarias (Gran Canaria, España)

La explosión demográfica de erizo Diadema antillarum en los ecosistemas sumergidos rocosos del litoral canario está provocando una intensa desertización, generando los popularmente conocidos como fondos de “blanquizales” debido al color blanco que adquiere el recubrimiento calcáreo. Se analizaron los parámetros morfométricos, de densidad poblacional, ecología trófica e interacción específica de la especie de erizo D. antillarum (Philippi, 1845) durante los años 2005, 2006 y 2007 en los fondos rocosos de la isla de Gran Canaria, Islas Canarias, España. Se evaluaron cuatro blanquizales con diferente orientación geográfica y con características bióticas y abióticas distintas, lo que permitió analizar el papel trófico de D. antillarum bajo diferentes condiciones; además de la evaluación de la biomasa de las especies algales halladas en los fondos rocosos donde habita la especie. El estudio hace un especial énfasis en la evaluación de la distribución, discriminación y selección de las diversas fuentes algales consumidas por Diadema antillarum a través de un seguimiento de la asimilación de los productores primarios por los consumidores, mediante el uso de los isótopos estables 13C y 15N Los resultados no mostraron una variación estacional de la morfometría de D. antillarum. Sin embargo, si existe una variación respecto al tamaño del erizo con la profundidad. La especie mostró una disminución de su tamaño cuanto mayor era la profundidad. Asimismo los resultados exhibieron una correlación negativa entre la densidad poblacional de D. antillarum y el tamaño del erizo. Hay una clara tendencia a hallar las tallas pequeñas de erizos conforme aumenta la maduración o desarrollo de los blanquizales. Se encuentran tallas menores cuando la densidad de erizos supera los 5 erizos • m-2. La mayor densidad promedio encontrada en este estudio fue de 12, 83 erizos • m-2 y la talla menor fue de un diámetro de caparazón menor a 2 cm y un ancho de la linterna de Aristóteles de 0,8 cm; la categoría de diámetro de caparazón más abundante fue la comprendida en el rango de 3,5-5,4 cm. Las firmas isotópicas de la fuentes algales y del músculo de D. antillarum mediante el uso de modelos de mezcla permitieron concluir que en términos generales el género Laurencia resultó un constituyente principal en la dieta de D. antillarum en los diferentes blanquizales; los géneros Colpomenia, Padina, Sargassum, Hypnea, y Jania son constituyentes importantes en la dieta de D. antillarum cuando habita en sustratos de blanquizales desarrollados (maduros), de la misma forma que Dictyota, Zonaria, Liagora, Lobophora, y Stypocaulon constituyen fuentes importantes en los blanquizales menos desarrollados (inmaduros), mostrando un alto grado de solapamiento de fuentes. D. antillarum presentó una asimilación diferencial, independientemente de la disponibilidad del alimento. La dieta de D. antillarum refleja una composición algal específica dependiendo de la etapa de maduración del blanquizal El estudio proporciona una herramienta cuantitativa que permite separar ambientes diferentes - hábitats que experimentan diferentes grados de perturbación- a través de la evaluación de una asimilación diferencial de las algas por parte de D. antillarum.
