Pieces of Iowa’s Past, March 21, 2012

Pieces of Iowa’s Past, published by the Iowa State Capitol Tour Guides weekly during the legislative session, features historical facts about Iowa, the Capitol, and the early workings of state government. All historical publications are reproduced here with the actual spelling, punctuation, and grammar retained. March 21, 2012 THIS WEEK: Quick Work at Carlisle(From the Indianola Tribune, December 20, 1877) BACKGROUND: Lewis Todhunter was born in Fayette County, Ohio, April 6, 1817. He was admitted to the bar in Highland County, Ohio, in 1848. Todhunter came to Iowa in 1850, settling along the Des Moines River in Polk County, where he was engaged in farming and selling goods. In 1854, he moved to Indianola and began the practice of law, continuing in that profession for more than a quarter of a century. He served as prosecuting attorney, county auditor, treasurer, and mayor of the city. He was a member of the third constitutional convention, which met at Iowa City in 1857, representing Warren, Madison, Adair, and Cass counties in that body and had the honor of assisting in making the first laws of the state. Todhunter served in the army during the Civil War from 1863-1865 as assistant quartermaster with rank of Captain. He is perhaps widest known, however, as a temperance leader and earnest worker. He joined in the Washingtonian movement in 1840 and was active in temperance reformation for the rest of his life.

Henry Walter Bates: um viajante naturalista na Amazônia e o processo de transferência da informação

A partir do século XVII iniciou-se na Amazônia toda uma movimentação de viajantes/naturalistas atraídos pela biossociodiversidade dessa região dominada por uma floresta tropical. Henry Bates (1825-1892), estudioso de história natural, foi um deles, tendo, porém, se deslocado para o Norte do Brasil entre os anos de 1848 e 1859. Nesse contexto, o presente paper tem como objetivo analisar o processo de transferência das informações produzidas por esse viajante naturalista após 11 anos de trabalho de campo. A partir do material bibliográfico reunido para esse fim, verificou-se que tal processo foi bem-sucedido, como evidencia a ampla circulação das obras publicadas por Bates. Transcorridos 156 anos dessa expedição, a produção científica de Bates continua a participar do circuito acadêmico de produção de conhecimento sobre a Amazônia na contemporaneidade, qual seja no campo da biologia, da zoologia, da sociologia, da história ou da antropologia.
