A arte de recriar lendas e mitos: inrtextualidade e antropofagismo

Brazilian folklore is rich in legends that inhabit in the imaginary of people and are believed to have originated among Brazilian indigenous peoples and the Africans who were enslaved by Portuguese settlers. However, when those stories are compared with the legends of the Iberian Peninsula , one can notice that a lot of elements in the Brazilian legends clearly reflect, for example, aspects of the popular narratives from Galicia and Portugal, such as “The moors” and “Yara’s legend”; “O trasno” and “Saci pererê”. The objective of this paper is to analyze those cultural traces by means of Comparative Literary and Intertextuality analysis, by observing how the context , the ruling ideology, and both social and cultural aspects retake the stories that are known to a certain culture and readapt them according to the traditions of another, thus producing new discourse-texts with local characteristics.

Viabilidade técnica e econômica do superadobe na construção de casas populares

The need for affordable housing and the high cost of today's building materials make necessary to look for useful and affordable technologies for these house buildings. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of construction technology called Earthbag for use in public housing. Technical assessments were based on Kiffmeyer and Hunter's book (2004), academics dissertations and construction standards for the technology. The result allowed a positive evaluation towards the feasibility proposal and showing the possibility of replace the use of structural concrete blocks in public housing. The economic viability was performed an economical compared to a project Housing Project Bom Retiro 2 with one of Earthbag which have been shown considerable savings between the techniques. For the construction of masonry, build with purchased sand, 13% lower budget was found in comparison of a concrete masonry block. With the use of sand from the work site itself, there is a saving of 18%. Although earthbag has proven to be a technically and economically feasible for application in the construction of affordable housing, the shortage of technical and scientific studies and Brazilian regulations on this technology has limited its large-scale use

Indicios de antecedencia en la red fluvial del sureste de Galicia

[ES] El presente trabajo ofrece un análisis preliminar de la red fluvial con antecedencia terciaria del sureste gallego. Las observaciones geomorfológicas de campo se centran en la cartografía de terrazas erosivas, canales abandonados, meandros colgados, codos de captura y redes anómalas. Para su interpretación se confrontaron con los thalwegs de los cursos principales y las fracturas alpinas cartografiadas por otros autores. Se propone una cronología para los procesos fluviales identificados; cronología que apunta una antigüedad de la red fluvial mayor a la estimada hasta el momento. De las siete tendencias identificadas, tres presentan una entidad regional (ENE-WSW, NE-SW, N-S), y cuatro local (NW-SE, SW-NE, SE-NW, S-N). Se confirma el carácter principal de la paleorred ENE-WSW (caracterizada por el río Sil) y como hipótesis se propone, para la Sierra de Queixa-San Mamede, el carácter de paleorrelieve positivo de herencia mesozoica. Este relieve habría sufrido varios procesos de levantamiento isostático y también tectónico durante la Orogenia Alpina. Estos levantamientos habrían provocado la superposición de capturas en las estribaciones surorientales de la Sierra de Queixa-San Mamede.

Evolución geomorfológica del Macizo Hespérico peninsular:estudio de un sector comprendido entre las provincias de Lugo y Ourense (Galicia, NW de España)

[EN] This paper deals with the relief generation in Ourense, an interior territory of the Galicia Country, at NW Spain, after the breakdown of Pangea 200 million years ago. The rupture of supercontinent causes the main effects in the outer part of Galicia, the present coast line and the shelf, but also the inner parts of Galicia where the landscape changes dramatically mainly ruled by fluvial incision connected with uprising, (orogenic, epirogenic, or isostatic origin), or even with eustatic oscillations, that shaped the previous old mesozoic landscape. Various things complicate the correct understanding of Galician geomorphology:1) the prevalent hercynian structure, (presumably reactivated during the Alpine Orogeny), causes that the epigenic processes, (fluvial, glaciar, marine and etching), acting on Galicia from Mesozoic to present times, produce end forms identified erroneously at the previous literature as tectonic and not as etch forms profiting from lithological or structural contrasts. 2) the common morphotectonic model accepted by all previous researchers establishes for the whole of Galicia a blocky pattern, (horst and graben like), due to extensional tectonic regime. This model is proved as no longer valid because the Galician tertiary basins, even were described at the past as graben depressions never have this origin. 3) big differences exist between the north and western sides of Galicia that show contrasted tectonic regime: compressional (with forms as the so called raised platforms), at the northern coast border, and extensional (with forms so typical as the Rias), at the western side. The study area is located at the confluence of two tectonic domains where the above mentioned effects are coincidents and specially well showed through different effects: prominent assimetry of fluvial captures (west facing), pronounced river incision and different kinds of tertiary basins: either strike slipe faults (Maceda, Xinzo de Limia, etc), or overslipped by inverse faults, (Quiroga, A Rúa, etc.), or even corresponding with depressions never, (or anywise passively), affected by tectonic movements, (Monforte). The paper include a detailed inventory of surfaces and terrace levels and their incision sequence which allow stablish a relative chronology of geomorphic evolution at this area of NW Spain during meso-cainozoic times.

Las terrazas del rio Miño en el tramo Chantada-As Neves (límite de Galicia Portugal)

[ES] La cartografía geomorfológica es especialmente difícil en áreas con depósitos escasos, poco significativos y de cronología incierta,con formas multiedad y multiorigen. Tal es el caso de Galicia. Este trabajo es un intento de reconstruir la historia geomorfológica de Galicia durante el Cenozoico en un área especialmente relevante por su situación geodinámica. Se ha hecho un inventario exhaustivo de los niveles de terrazas erosivas y de acumulación en un tramo específico, por sus características morfológicas del curso principal del río Miño. Se presentan aquí los sistemas de terrazas entre Chantada y As Neves y se relacionan con las tres superficies de corrosión química (etched surfaces) más relevantes en la zona: R800, R600 y R400. Se analiza también su relación con el perfil longitudinal del río. Utilizando los únicos criterios existentes (continuidad topográfica y altitud), se propone para el sector estudiado un modelo evolutivo esencialmente determinado por la incisión fluvial asociada a la colisión entre la Placa Euroasiática y la Ibérica durante el Paleógeno y que geomorfológicamente se inicia a partir de la formación del aplanamiento R600, equivalente en Galicia a la Superficie Fundamental Peninsular.

Las terrazas del río Sil en el tramo Carucedo-Os Peares, SE de Galicia

[ES] Se describen los sistemas de terrazas del Río Sil desde el Bierzo hasta la confluencia con el Miño. En este tramo el río se encaja profundamente sobre las principales superficies de erosión del SE gallego (R400, R600, R800, RlOOO y R1200). Junto a los niveles de terraza con depósitos se observa la presencia de superficies terraza y aplanamientos de mayor extensión, siempre asociados al encajamiento fluvial. Se analiza la morfometría y los perfiles longitudinales de la red; así como la distribución de las terrazas y aplanamientos incluidos en el encajamiento. Se reconocen algunos cambios en la evolución de la red simultáneos a la sedimentación de las fosas terciarias (Monforte de Lemos, Quiroga, A Rúa-O Barco). La antigüedad de la red y un descenso generalizado en el nivel de base del Sistema Miño-Sil, podría justificar estos acontecimientos. Sin embargo, existen indicios de cierto control tectónico. Por último se propone un modelo evolutivo del tramo estudiado, para la etapa posterior a la formación del aplanamiento RlOOO.
