La Instituci��n Libre de Ense��anza y la arquitectura espa��ola de la Edad de Plata (1876-1936)

La tesis doctoral ��La Instituci��n Libre de Ense��anza y la arquitectura espa��ola de la Edad de Plata (1876-1936)�� analiza las relaciones propiciadas por la ILE y la corriente cultural del institucionismo ���identificada desde los primeros a��os 70 del pasado siglo por el historiador Manuel Tu����n de Lara como crucial en la configuraci��n de la cultura espa��ola contempor��nea���, con la arquitectura de su tiempo en el marco hist��rico de la Restauraci��n alfonsina y de la Segunda Rep��blica. Lo hace desde los cuatro temas que configuran los grandes apartados en los que se estructura y articula el trabajo de investigaci��n. El primero, el de la arquitectura de la escuela, a trav��s del an��lisis de los escritos sobre la materia de los pedagogos Francisco Giner de los R��os y Manuel Bartolom�� Coss��o y su papel en la materializaci��n del edificio escolar. El segundo, el de la geograf��a madrile��a de la ILE a trav��s de un recorrido por las arquitecturas que acogieron su proyecto modernizador, confiado a la moral de la ciencia, a trav��s de los centro por ella impulsados desde la Junta para Ampliaci��n de Estudios e Investigaciones Cient��ficas (JAE), como fueron la Residencia de Estudiantes y su grupo femenino de la Residencia de Se��oritas, el Instituto Nacional de F��sica y Qu��mica, el Instituto-Escuela, el Centro de Estudios Hist��ricos o el Instituto Cajal. El tercero, la renovaci��n de la cultura arquitect��nica espa��ola promovida a trav��s de la pol��tica de pensiones de la JAE en el extranjero, de las actividades de extensi��n universitaria desarrolladas por la Residencia de Estudiantes en el ��mbito de la arquitectura o por personas identificadas con su ideario. Y el cuarto, a trav��s de la nueva valoraci��n patrimonial de los monumentos arquitect��nicos y de los paisajes espa��oles alentada por la pr��ctica pedag��gica del excursionismo y por los escritos de Francisco Giner de los R��os y Manuel Bartolom�� Coss��o, que culmina con la promulgaci��n de la Ley del Tesoro Art��stico Nacional de 1933. El trabajo plantea una historia coral, donde tienen cabida arquitectos, pedagogos, pol��ticos, historiadores del arte, cr��ticos de arte y arquitectura de cuatro generaciones distintas: desde Ricardo Vel��zquez Bosco, coet��neo de Francisco Giner de los R��os, a Arturo S��enz de la Calzada, colegial de la Residencia de Estudiantes durante los a��os treinta y activo miembro de la Federaci��n Universitaria Escolar, pasando por Carlos Velasco, Antonio Fl��rez Urdapilleta, Pablo Guti��rrez Moreno, Bernardo Giner de los R��os, Leopoldo Torres Balb��s, Carlos Arniches Molt��, Mart��n Dom��nguez Esteban, Fernando Garc��a Mercadal o Matilde Ucelay, en el caso de los arquitectos; Francisco Giner de los R��os, Manuel Bartolom�� Coss��o, Jos�� Castillejo o Alberto Jim��nez Fraud, entre los pedagogos; Segismundo Moret, ��lvaro de Figueroa, Fernando de los R��os o Marcelino Domingo, entre los pol��ticos; Manuel G��mez-Moreno, Ricardo de Orueta o Emilio Camps Cazorla, entre los historiadores del arte; Javier de Winthuysen como jardinero o Jos�� Moreno Villa a trav��s de su papel como cr��tico de arquitectura a favor del arte nuevo. Para ello, se ha partido del an��lisis y la interpretaci��n de las arquitecturas de matriz institucionista a trav��s de fuentes muy diversas, entre ellas un nutrido corpus de im��genes como complemento iconogr��fico fundamental en la articulaci��n del discurso narrativo, que ha permitido situar a los temas analizados y sus protagonistas en su contexto hist��rico y disciplinar. Todo ello ha puesto de manifiesto el papel asumido por la Instituci��n Libre de Ense��anza como un laboratorio de ideas y proyectos clave en la configuraci��n de la cultura arquitect��nica espa��ola del primer tercio del siglo XX. ABSTRACT The doctoral thesis ��La Instituci��n Libre de Ense��anza y la arquitectura espa��ola de la Edad de Plata (1876-1936)�� analyzes the relationships fostered by the ILE and the cultural current ��institucionismo�� ���identified from the early '70s by the historian Manuel Tu����n de Lara as cardinal in shaping the contempor��nea Spanish culture���, with the architecture of his time in the historical context of the Restoration and the Second Republic periods. This is done from the four themes that make up the major sections in which the research is structured and articulated. The first, the architecture of the school building, through the analysis of the writings on the subject of pedagogues Francisco Giner and Manuel Bartolom�� Coss��o and its role in the materialization of the school building. The second, the geography of the ILE in Madrid through a tour of the architectures that supported its modernizing project, entrusted to the moral of science, through the centers promoted by the Junta para Ampliaci��n de Estudios e Investigaciones Cient��ficas (JAE), as the Residencia de Estudiantes and its girls group Residencia de Se��oritas, Instituto Nacional de F��sica y Qu��mica, Instituto-Escuela, Centro de Estudios Hist��ricos or Instituto Cajal. The third, the renewal of the Spanish architectural culture promoted through JAE pension abroad, the university extension activities developed by the Residencia de Estudiantes in the field of architecture or people identified with its ideology. And the fourth, through new equity valuation of architectural monuments and the Spanish landscapes encouraged by the pedagogical practice of excursionism and by the writings of Francisco Giner de los R��os and Manuel Bartolom�� Coss��o, culminating in the enactment of the Ley del Tesoro Art��stico Nacional in 1933. The work raises a choral history, where have place architects, educators, politicians, art historians, art and architecture critics of four distinct generations: from Ricardo Vel��zquez Bosco, a contemporary of Francisco Giner, Arturo S��enz de la Calzada, schoolboy student residence during the thirties and active member of the Federaci��n Universitaria Escolar, through Carlos Velasco, Antonio Fl��rez Urdapilleta, Pablo Guti��rrez Moreno, Bernardo Giner, Leopoldo Torres Balb��s, Carlos Arniches Molt��, Mart��n Dom��nguez Esteban, Fernando Garc��a Mercadal or Matilde Ucelay, in the case of architects; Francisco Giner, Manuel Bartolom�� Coss��o, Jos�� Castillejo and Alberto Jim��nez Fraud, among teachers; Segismundo Moret, ��lvaro de Figueroa, Fernando de los R��os and Marcelino Domingo, among politicians; Manuel G��mez-Moreno, Ricardo de Orueta or Emilio Camps Cazorla, including art historians; Javier de Winthuysen as gardener and Jos�� Moreno Villa through his role as architecture critic for the new art. To do this, the origin point has been the analysis and interpretation of the ��institucionista�� architectures through a variety of sources, including a large corpus of iconographic images as a fundamental complement to the articulation of the narrative, which has allowed place the issues discussed and its protagonists in their historical context and discipline. This has highlighted the role played by the Instituci��n Libre de Ense��anza as a laboratory of ideas and projects and key in shaping the Spanish architectural culture of the early twentieth century.

Di��rios fotogr��ficos de bicicleta em Pernambuco: os irm��os Ulysses e Gilberto Freyre na documenta����o de cidades na d��cada de 1920

Esta pesquisa interdisciplinar centrada no segmento da fotografia de acervo de intelectual apresenta o estudo de caso de 84 imagens feitas pelo fot��grafo amador Ulysses Freyre de alguns pr��dios e ruas das cidades de Olinda e do Recife entre 1923 e 1925. Ulysses fotografou durante passeios de bicicleta aos domingos ao lado do irm��o, o soci��logo Gilberto Freyre. Objetiva-se tra��ar os dois usos dados por Gilberto ��s fotos de Ulysses: de base aos desenhos de Manoel Bandeira para o \"Livro do Nordeste\", organizado pelo soci��logo em 1925 para o centen��rio do Di��rio de Pernambuco; e como parte da concep����o de invent��rio de edifica����es da arquitetura civil que serviu �� Inspetoria de Monumentos Estaduais em 1928 em Pernambuco. Vale-se do campo acerca do circuito fotogr��fico nestas cidades, que estavam sob reformas urbanas no in��cio do s��culo XX, a fim de situar e revelar a fotografia de Ulysses como artefato de mem��ria propulsor do embrion��rio projeto pol��tico-intelectual de Gilberto neste per��odo. As fotos est��o no acervo da Funda����o Gilberto Freyre, em Recife, Pernambuco.

Sagunto/Murb�����ar en el per��odo isl��mico: su historia a trav��s de los textos

El estudio se articula en torno a tres ejes: En uno primero se recogen y desgranan "Las informaciones de Sagunto/Murb�����ar procedentes de las fuentes ��rabes escritas", tanto las noticias sobre diversos eventos hist��ricos, como las noticias de las fuentes geogr��ficas y literarias ��rabes (en especial las relacionadas con la descripci��n de sus monumentos), acabando con algunos apuntes demogr��ficos. En un segundo apartado se estudia "La mutaci��n topon��mica de Saguntum a Murb�����ar, como fuente de informaci��n hist��rica", mientras que en el tercero y ��ltimo se habla de "Las conquistas cristianas de Sagunto/Murb�����ar/Morvedre".

Caracterizaci��n de los dep��sitos miocenos de la isla de Nueva Tabarca (Alicante) y su empleo como material de construcci��n en el patrimonio local

El presente trabajo muestra la caracterizaci��n en detalle de la secuencia estratigr��fica de los dep��sitos miocenos de la isla de Nueva Tabarca, el empleo de estos materiales en el patrimonio arquitect��nico de la isla y su comportamiento frente la degradaci��n. En la serie miocena, a grandes rasgos, se definen tres tramos. El tramo inferior, rico en clastos dolom��ticos, muestra una alternancia de arenitas y calcarenitas. El tramo intermedio corresponde a una sucesi��n de niveles de calcirruditas con laminaci��n cruzada cuya parte superior est�� representada por un nivel de grandes bioclastos, rodolitos y arenitas de grano fino. El comienzo del ��ltimo tramo est�� marcado por la presencia de varias superficies arenosas m��s litificadas sobre las que se sit��a un banco de arenitas de grano fino y laminaci��n paralela. Si bien las canteras extra��an sillares de todas estas litofacies, existe una mayor extracci��n de los ��ltimos niveles de la serie. Estas rocas presentan una durabilidad moderada-baja, degrad��ndose f��cilmente mediante arenizaci��n, escamaci��n y/o alveolizaci��n.

Geological risk assessment of Amtoudi Agadir in southern Morocco: a key case for sustainable cultural heritage

Medieval fortified granaries known as ���agadirs��� are very common in southern Morocco, being catalogued as world cultural heritage by United Nations. These Berber buildings (made of stones and tree trunks) usually located on rocky promontories, constitute historical testimonials related to the origin of Morocco, and, as tourist attractions, have a positive impact on the local economy. The sustainability of these ancient monuments requires geological-risk evaluations of the massif stability under the agadir with the proposal of stabilization measures, and an architectonic analysis with appropriate maintenance of the structural elements. An interdisciplinary study including climate, seismicity, hydrology, geology, geomorphology, geotechnical surveys of the massif, and diagnosis of the degradation of structural elements have been performed on the Amtoudi Agadir, selected as a case study. The main findings from this study are that the prevalent rocks used for construction (coming from the underlying substratum) are good-quality arkosic sandstones; the SW cliffs under the agadir are unstable under water saturation; some masonry walls are too thin and lack interlocking stones and mortar; and failures in the beams (due to flexure, fracture, and exhaustion in the resistance due to insect attacks or plant roots) are common. The basic risk assessment of ancient buildings of cultural heritage and their geologic substratum are needed especially in undeveloped areas with limited capacity to implement durable conservation policies. Therefore, recommendations have been provided to ensure the stability and maintenance of this important archaeological site.

The Conservation of our Built Heritage, in Particular Statues in Aberdeen, Evaluated Through a Social and Historical Context and Their Impact, Through the Use of 3D Scanning

Cultural heritage sites all over the world are at risk due to aggressive urban expansion, development, wars and general obsolescence. Not all objects are recorded in detail although they may have social and historical significance. For example more emphasis is placed on the recording of castles and palaces than on crofters��� cottages or tenement blocks, although their history can be just as rich. This paper will investigate the historic fabric of Aberdeen through the use of digital scanning, supported by a range of media including old photographs and paintings. Dissemination of social heritage through visualisations will be explored and how this can aid the understanding of space within the city or specific area. Focus will be given to the major statues/monuments within the context of the city centre, exploring their importance in their environment. In addition studying why many have been re-located away from their original site, the reasons why, and how we have perhaps lost some of the social and historical importance of why that monument was first located there. It will be argued that Digital Media could be utilised for much more than re-creation and re-presentation of physical entities. Digital scanning, in association with visualisation tools, is used to capture the essence of both the cultural heritage and the society that created or used the sites in association with visualisation tools and in some way re-enacting the original importance placed upon the monument in its original location, through adoption of BIM Heritage.

La revalorizaci��n tur��stica del patrimonio jud��o en Espa��a. Sus barrios y su vino

Las comunidades jud��as tuvieron una importante presencia en la Pen��nsula Ib��rica, especialmente en la Edad Media. En la actualidad, ante las nuevas motivaciones y expectativas de los turistas y visitantes, el turismo cultural es una alternativa que est�� consolidada o en fase de consolidaci��n, sobre todo en los territorios de interior. Por ello, desde la Red de Juder��as de Espa��a se han dise��ado unos productos tur��sticos que, por una parte, permiten conocer los barrios jud��os de 24 ciudades, as�� como sus principales monumentos, su historia y su cultura. Por la otra, se pueden visitar las bodegas donde se elabora y comercializa el vino siguiendo el m��todo Kosher. En este art��culo se estudian cu��les son los factores que m��s inciden en la satisfacci��n de los turistas al hacer estas dobles visitas a partir del an��lisis de una serie de entrevistas personales realizadas.

III. Political speech, [ca. 1798]

Paper notebook containing a twenty-page handwritten political speech bound with a ribbon. The document is undated and unattributed, but the text promotes a Federalist ideology that praises the "great and immortal Washington," reflects on the patriots of the Revolutionary War and the United States Constitution, and references Napoleon and the "war which exists in Europe." The text begins, "If Ancient and modern nations have been proud of their Heroes & states-men--and by celebrations and monuments have endeavored to perpetuate their form, & preserve the memory of great events--shall we be considered enthusiastic and vain, if we commemorate the day, which gave birth to our empire..."
