Aportes de la Asociación Rural del Uruguay a la viticultura en Uruguay (1872-1900)

En este artículo se analizan desde una perspectiva agronómica los contenidos de los discursos de los viticultores y técnicos en Uruguay para el periodo 1872-1900, presentes en la Revista de la Asociación Rural del Uruguay. Los contenidos se organizan según dimensiones del manejo de la viña en la etapa de campo. Se expresa la preponderancia de los primeros actores en la constitución de la temprana viticultura nacional -productores pertenecientes a una elite empresarial de inmigrantes- al adaptar sus conocimientos previos desde procesos de experimentación. Se indaga en el papel que cumplió la Asociación Rural del Uruguay en esta fase

Victoria Land Antarctica Pb and Ba concentrations and Pb isotope ratios 1872-1994 CE

Pb and Ba concentrations and Pb isotopic compositions are reported for firn core and snow pit samples from Victoria Land, Antarctica, dating from 1872 AD to 1994 AD. From variations in Pb/Ba ratios and Pb isotopic compositions, two periods of major Pb enhancements were identified, from 1891 to 1908 AD and from 1948 to 1994 AD. The earlier pollution event is attributed to Pb emissions from non-ferrous metal production and coal combustion in the Southern Hemisphere and is in excellent agreement with coincident pollution inputs reported in firn/ice cores from two other regions of Antarctica, at Coats Land and Law Dome. Using Pb isotopic systematics, it was calculated that ~50% of Pb deposited in Victoria Land in 1897 originated from anthropogenic emission sources. The more recent period of Pb enhancements, from 1948 to 1994 AD, corresponds to the introduction and widespread use of gasoline alkyl Pb additives in automobiles in the Southern Hemisphere, with anthropogenic Pb inputs averaging 60% of total Pb but with large uncertainty. Intra- and inter-annual variations in Pb concentrations and isotopic compositions were evaluated in snow pits samples corresponding to the period 1991-1994. Substantial variations in Pb/ Ba and 206Pb/207Pb ratios were detected but the absence of a regular seasonal pattern for these parameters suggests that the transport and deposition of aerosols to the Antarctic ice sheet are complex and vary from year to year.

Emerging From the Shadows : the Life of Captain John (Deserontyou), Circa 1742-1811, Founder of the Bay of Quinte Mohawk Village

This thesis is a biographical examination of the life of Mohawk leader Deserontyou (Captain John) and covers the years from the 1730's up to, and briefly following, 1811. The social, economic and political position of the Mohawk people and Deserontyou's position within the Fort Hunter community prior to the Revolution are addressed first. The Revolutionary War years are then covered with emphasis placed on Deserontyou's military role, the unpleasant conditions at Lachine and the painful reality for the Mohawk people in the aftermath of Britain's defeat. The post-war settlement on the Bay of Quinte is then explored, including the difficulties that Deserontyou experienced with the land, with the British Government, and with his own people. The documents upon which this examination are based come from many primary collections including: The Draper Manuscripts, the Haldimand Papers, the Stuart Papers, Ontario Lands & Forest Survey Records, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, Episcopal Records, the Bell Papers, the File Collection, the Claus Papers and Indian Affairs Papers.

Disruptive Threads and Renegade Yarns: Domestic Textile Making in Selected Women's Writing 1811-1925

Images of domestic textiles (items made at home for consumption within the household) and textile making form an important subtext to women’s writing, both during and after industrialization. Through a close reading of five novels from the period 1811-1925, this thesis will assert that a detailed understanding of textile work and its place in women’s daily lives is critical to a deeper understanding of social, sexual and political issues from a woman’s perspective. The first chapter will explore the history of the relationship between women and domestic textile making, and the changes wrought to the latter by the Industrial Revolution. The second chapter will examine the role of embroidery in the construction of “appropriate” feminine gentility in Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park (1814). The third chapter, on Elizabeth Gaskell’s Cranford (1853), will explore how the older female body became a repository for anxieties about class mobility and female power at the beginning of the Victorian era. The fourth chapter will compare Sara Jeannette Duncan’s A Social Departure (1890) and Kate Chopin’s The Awakening (1899) to consider how later Victorian women both internalized and refuted public narratives of domestic textile making in a quest for “self-ownership.” The last chapter, on Martha Ostenso’s Wild Geese (1925), examines the corrosive, yet ultimately redemptive, relationships of a family of women trapped by abuse and degradation. For all five authors, images of textiles and textile making allow them to speak to issues that were usually only discussed within a community of women: sexuality, desire, aging, marriage, and motherhood. In all five works, textile making “talks back” to the power structures that marginalize women, and lends insight into the material and emotional circumstances of women’s lives.

La publicidad, herramienta promocional del centro de anuncios Roldós y Compañía (1872-1900)

El nacimiento de los primeros centros de anuncios en España data de la segunda mitad del siglo XIX. Uno de ellos es Roldós y Compañía. En un período en el que la publicidad es una actividad incipiente, los primeros profesionales recurren a lo que mejor saben hacer para darse a conocer: anuncios. A través del estudio de la autopublicidad de esta agencia realizada durante las últimas décadas del siglo XIX no solo veremos el progresivo desarrollo de este tipo de piezas (formal y de contenidos) sino también la evolución de todos los agentes que participan en la actividad: agencia, anunciantes y medios de comunicación. En este contexto, el centro de anuncios hace las veces de anunciante y de agencia. Es decir, ejerce una triple función: es el emisor del mensaje y es, a la vez, quien lo confecciona y quien gestiona su inserción en los medios. La historia de la publicidad se escribe junto a la agencia Roldós y Compañía. Por tanto su autopublicidad es un fiel reflejo de todo cuanto ha ocurrido en España desde el nacimiento de la profesión hasta finales del siglo XIX, un período caracterizado por la frecuente presencia de este tipo de anuncios en la prensa escrita del momento.

The Formation of a Liberal Thinker: Georg Jellinek and his Early Writings (1872 – 1878)

Georg Jellinek is known as one of the most prominent representative of German legal positivism. This article aims at identifying and discussing the more theoretical- political connotation of Jellinek’s thought with a particular focus on his liberal inspiration. According to the perspective of the history of political thought, this article shows how some intellectual premises to Jellinek’s liberalism take shape and emerge from a series of young Jellinek’s writings on history of philosophy and history of ideas.
