O terciário (re) desenhando a periferia: a região administrativa norte de Natal/RN, na última década do século XX, servicializada na Av. Dr. João Medeiros Filho

The tertiary sector has been (re)defining and (re)qualifying, in an impacting way, the urban spaces in the cities, introducing new elements for the discussion of the relationship center/periphery. In Natal, as an inducing economic activity of its development, it conforms to the new needs of the capital, expanding, being materialized through several processes and spatial forms. We aim at analyzing one of those processes, which has taken its Northern Administrative Area to (re)define the design of its urban space, through the actions developed by the agents involved with the spatialization of the tertiary activities, at the same time as it redimensions its role as a periphery of Natal, contributing to the study of the recent and growing transformations of the Brazilian capitals. The studied district corresponds to 39.4% of the municipal area and, until recently, was composed by precarious reproduction spaces, unprovided of relevant economical activities. After the boom of the development of extensive housing complexes by SFH/BNH, the area, gradually stopped being a dependent area, and it imposed itself as an economically participant region, with the increase of the trade and services sectors, as well as a favorable place for the appearance of new activities. Its reflexes are noticeable in the achieved spatial configuration. As the main road to induct changes, Dr. João Medeiros Filho Avenue presents these new tendencies in the production of the intraurban space, concentrating the largest goods and services equipments of the area, through investments of the private and public sectors, which guarantee the capital allocation for the construction of a new centrality

Henrique Novaes: técnica, território e cidade em uma trajetória profissional: Brasil, primeira metade do século XX

The career of civil engineer Henrique de Novaes, a remarkable figure in the academic, technical and political fields, demonstrates its extensive and relevant work across Brazil in the first half of the twentieth century. It covered from the design of water supply and sewage works, road and rail transport networks, works against drought in the Northeast, hydroelectric and harbor facilities to the urbanization planning and architectural projects, which displays a systematic and multiple production. City and territory conformed to his fields of verification, practical and above all, transformation. The search for understanding of the inclusion of a social actor in this process thus contributes to the specific analysis of the doings of Henrique de Novaes, who graduated at Polytechnic School of Rio de Janeiro in 1906. From a polymorphic activity in different scales, one tries to figure how, through academic education or professional practice, urban history in Brazil can be told or built. The introduction of technological innovations matched the purposes of planning and urban sprawl, as well as met the specifications of regulation and institutionalization of public infrastructure services at the time. The overall plans proposed by the engineer thought of the city as a whole, interconnected to the structural networks. At the same time, the knowledge of a larger physical scale the territory bounces back in the urban in a relationship of reciprocity and completeness. The objective research, therefore, tries to understand the roles played by Henrique de Novaes s works and academic education in the accomplishment of systematic modernization of Brazilian urban space and territory, recovering a little known historical figure by current historiography. It is proposed, as methodological axis, that the study of this professional career configures itself as an essential element for understanding the idea of progress embodied in the technical studies and proposals for improvements and sanitation nationwide in the first half of the twentieth century . The primary sources for the construction of this analysis were technical articles in journals of the period ( Clube de Engenharia , Viação e Revista Brasileira de Engenharia ), and technical reports, government messages, newspaper articles published at the time, autobiographical reports and the engineer s verbal communications with relatives. The work is structured in three chapters: "Biographical traces, academic education and 'technical and political' activities" illustrates the initiation into the technical, public and political environment; Chapter 2, "Technique and territory" outlines his network understanding through sanitation and transport services; Chapter 3 "Technique and City" describes the influence of polytechnics knowledge on the propositions of modernization of cities; Finally, "Final Thoughts: An Evaluation," presents an overview of the affiliations and practice of an engineer in the different scales, and its contribution to the modernization of Brazilian urban and territorial space

A economia argentina no final do século XX : crise, autral e plano de conversibilidade

O presente trabalho tem como finalidade analisar a história econômica da Argentina no final do século XX, após o regime militar, através de uma síntese do modelo econômico argentino com foco nos Planos Austral e de Conversibilidade. Para tanto, utilizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, exploratória, histórica, explicativa e bibliográfica. Os estudos acentuam um caráter nitidamente anti-inflacionário do Plano Austral, que se assentava basicamente no congelamento dos preços, salários e câmbio, enquanto que o Plano de Convertibilidade atrelava a moeda local ao dólar americano. Contudo, os dois planos econômicos não conseguiram resolver os graves problemas da economia Argentina no longo prazo, embora o segundo tenha tido uma sobre vida mais longa, entretanto, a custa de um endividamento profundo. Durante uma década de existência o Plano de Conversibilidade passou por diversas fases e causou uma série de efeitos para economia Argentina, com consequências que foram sentidas inclusive nos primeiros anos do século XXI.

A imprensa regional como fonte para o estudo da emigração para o Brasil – Lamego na primeira metade do século XX

Oscilando entre a defesa da repressão da saída daqueles que abandonam o seu país em procura de melhores condições de vida, pelos impactos negativos que daí advinham para Portugal, e o reconhecimento de que o desenvolvimento local dependia, quase exclusivamente, das remessas dos emigrantes ou dos que, depois de uma vida de trabalho no exterior, retornavam à sua terra natal, a imprensa regional deve ser entendida, na primeira metade do século XX, como um complexo barómetro das sensibilidades locais relativamente à questão da emigração. Esta ambivalência no posicionamento dos jornais publicados no interior do país face a uma questão sobre a qual o discurso oficial, produzido a partir de Lisboa, apresenta, na generalidade dos casos, uma perspectiva negativa, não tem merecido a devida atenção na historiografia.

Música de câmara de Rodil, Pla e Avondano: a flauta na 2ª metade do séc. XVIII e o estilo galante ibérico

O presente trabalho é uma abordagem teórica e interpretativa à música para traverso de António Rodil (c.1730-1787), Pedro Avondano (1714-1782) e dos irmãos Pla. A interação entre as duas componentes do discurso são fundamentos essenciais para uma global compreensão das obras, sendo por sua vez, foco central no tratamento do estilo galante ibérico. A dissertação esta dividida em 5 capítulos; 1. contextualização da prática musical em Portugal na segunda metade do séc. XVIII; 2. o percurso artístico do flautista António Rodil (c.1730-1787); 3. a música de câmara de Pedro Avondano (1714-1782) e a primeira obra conhecida para o traverso em Portugal A Collection ofLisbon Minuets for two Violins or two German flutes and bass (1766); 4. o traverso na obra dos irmãos PLA; 5. reflexões em torno das questões interpretativas.

La música en la pintura europea entre los siglos XIV y XX: El ejemplo de la Colección Thyssen-Bornemisza

Con este trabajo se ha pretendido realizar un estudio de la iconografía musical en la pintura europea a lo largo de un período determinado: desde el siglo XIV al siglo XX. La colección Thyssen-Bornemisza nos ha ofrecido la posibilidad de abarcar estos siete siglos. Hemos intentado penetrar en el significado de las escenas sonoras y aproximarnos a su musicalidad a partir del análisis de los instrumentos o elementos musicales reflejados en cuarenta y nueve cuadros. Al mismo tiempo, hemos indagado en ciertos aspectos históricos, en las relaciones música-sociedad y en la proyección, bien de los instrumentos o bien de los asuntos presentados, en compositores e intérpretes de la misma época en que fue realizada la obra o de épocas posteriores. También hemos acudido a una serie de obras literarias en las que se ponen de manifiesto visiones particulares de estos últimos aspectos. Para ello, se ha establecido una ordenación conceptual en tres apartados: La Música y lo Divino, La Música y lo Humano, y La Música y lo Simbólico; a los que se añaden otros cuatro sub-apartados: La Música, lo Divino y lo Humano; La Música, lo Divino y lo Simbólico; La Música, lo Humano y lo Simbólico; La Música, lo Divino, lo Humano y lo Simbólico. Se ha tenido en cuenta, en primer lugar, el orden cronológico, puesto que nos permite observar el desarrollo de los instrumentos, su evolución técnica, así como la visión de otros pintores o cómo han interpretado éstos los asuntos que aparecen en las tablas y lienzos seleccionados. Así mismo, se ha establecido una diferenciación por países. En total son ocho los que hemos incluido: Alemania, Bélgica, España, Francia, Holanda, Italia, Reino Unido y Rusia. Sus respectivos artistas, nos han dado la posibilidad de realizar este recorrido. A través de la pintura y de la música hemos podido comprender mejor los lazos históricos entre países, y reconocer su aportación estructural a la diversidad y unidad de nuestra civilización. Hoy día, lograda casi la total unificación de Europa y en el intento de llegar a conseguir un “concierto” mundial, somos conscientes de lo importante que es y ha sido la contribución de los países citados (junto con otros que no hemos tenido la ocasión de atender en el marco de la colección Thyssen-Bornemisza), al patrimonio artístico de la cultura occidental...
