The second half of the twentieth century has been a time when American Jews have experienced a minimum of prejudice and almost all domains of life have been accessible to them, but it has also been a time of assimilation, of swelling rates of inter-marriage, and of large numbers ignoring their Jewishness completely. Jews have no trouble building synagogues, but they have all sorts of trouble filling them. The quality of Jewish education is perhaps higher than ever before, and the output of Jewish scholarship is overwhelming in its scope and quality, but most American Jews receive a minimum of religious education and can neither read nor comprehend the great corpus of Jewish literature in its Hebrew (or Aramaic) original. This is a time in America when there is no shame in being a Jew, and yet fewer American Jews seem to know what being a Jew means. This book is part of a stocktaking that has been occurring among Jews as the century in which their residence in America was firmly established comes to an end. Grounded in empirical detail, it provides a concise yet analytic evaluation of the meaning of the many studies and surveys of the last four and a half decades. All those who want to know what it means and has meant to be an American Jew will find this volume of interest.

Electrex developed from a small exhibition at the start of the 1950s into the top electrotechnical exhibition of products and related services in the UK by the 1990s. Its emergence reflected a complex relationship with the key trade association, BEAMA (the British Electrical and Allied Manufacturers' Association). This history places this development in a wider context marked by the disappearance of the British Industries Fair in the 1950s, the entry to Europe and the establishment of the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham. In the process it is also a rare case study of the under-explored business histories of exhibitions, as well as casting light on the changing post-war fortunes of the British electrical industries.

A velhice é um tema que emerge com frequência nas obras de William Shakespeare e de Eugénio de Andrade, sempre num tom disfórico. Em ambos, a última das sete idades do ser humano, acarreta uma série de consequências negativas: a) A beleza é efémera e os amantes abandonam; b) O declínio físico e mental é inevitável; c) Na fase final da vida, sobrevém o temor da morte. Para expressarem o efeito da senectude, Shakespeare e Eugénio recorrem a comparações semelhantes entre o ser humano e o Outono (velhice) e o Inverno (morte). Neste artigo, numa perspectiva comparada e intertextual, exemplifico e analiso essas melancólicas e dolorosas imagens. Para tanto, recorro à obra dos dois escritores, à opinião de ensaístas reputados na área dos estudos literários e da psicologia da morte e, naturalmente, à minha opinião.

Nas três últimas décadas do colonialismo português, as políticas destinadas às populações muçulmanas da Guiné e de Moçambique passaram da hostilidade mais ou menos aberta para uma estratégia de sedução, com vista a promover um “Islão português” e a usar certos sectores muçulmanos no combate aos movimentos nacionalistas. Esta transição teve também uma componente transnacional, na medida em que se quis alargar a intervenção portuguesa a um espaço estratégico designado como “mundo islâmico”. O presente artigo procura analisar essa intervenção, debruçando-se sobre o pensamento geopolítico que a informou e as suas aplicações diplomáticas, em particular no relacionamento com os países árabes.

Este artigo tem por base um estudo enquadrado no uso de materiais/modelos de ensino da Matemática na década de 60, aquando da implementação do Movimento Matemática Moderna, em Portugal. Para atingir este objectivo definimos três questões: 1) Já havia interesse no uso destes novos métodos de ensino, e consequentemente no uso de materiais diversos que levassem a uma melhor aprendizagem por parte dos alunos, antes da década de 60? 2) De que modo os professores aplicaram e usaram estes métodos/materiais na sua prática docente? E que formação tiveram? 3) Quais os métodos e materiais que os professores utilizavam nas suas aulas? O foco central deste trabalho parte da análise de dois artigos escritos na revista Labor, o primeiro em 1952 e o segundo em 1960, pelo professor António Augusto Lopes1 sobre o uso de materiais no 1º ciclo e o Laboratório de Matemática. Toda a pesquisa deste trabalho focou-se na interpretação de material fornecido pelo professor Lopes (manuscritos, relatórios, livros e fotografias, documentos do Ministério da Educação Nacional), bem como por reflexões e comentários do próprio, registadas na forma de entrevista,2 sobre o que foi o Movimento Matemática Moderna ao nível da prática docente, com recurso a novas metodologias e materiais de ensino. O período que irá ser analisado em termos cronológicos será de 1957 a 1965, isto porque é um período experimental e de mudança. A reunião de 57 da CIEAEM em Madrid é o marco histórico que irá despoletar o interesse da Comissão e de Augusto Lopes para a aplicação dos novos materiais\modelos. Apesar de só em 1965 serem criadas as primeiras turmas piloto para aplicação das metodologias e dos novos materiais\modelos preconizadas pelo MMM.
