Indios, Moradores e Câmaras Municipais : Etnicidade e conflitos agrários no Rio de Janerio e no Espírito Santo (séculos XVIII e XIX)

This paper analyzes the processes of extinction of indigenous collective lands and villages in Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo, from mid-eighteenth century to the nineteenth century, giving emphasis on the role of IndigenousÆs policy aiming to delay the process. Based on the correspondence among authorities, laws, statistical reports, and petitions from the Indians themselves, we approach the agrarian conflicts among indigenous, non-Indian residents and municipal councils, focusing on the issue of controversies and discussions regarding ethnicity that played a central role in these disputes.

Ocupaçâo, valorizaçâo e comércio de terras no norte do Rio Grande do Sul - séculos 19 e 20

This article focuses on some aspects of the agrarian history of Soledade, a town in the north of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil. Our aim is to understand how this area was in many ways affected by the Land Law of 1850, particularly in economic and social terms. Population growth, arrival of European immigrants and increasing privatization of the commons contributed for the increasing of land prices in the region during the second half of the 19 th century. Understanding this situation as a great opportunity to make money, some landowners, directly or through a colonization company, allotted and sold the land they had previously acquired through the Land Law of 1850

La Imagen del Viaje a a Efeso en el Yambo XIII de Calícamo

El Yambo XIII de Calímaco (fr. 203 Pf.) es conocido, junto con el Yambo I, por su naturaleza programática y por su tono polémico: el poeta disputa con sus detractores, quienes lo acusan por la "variedad formal" (polieídeia) de sus obras. Entre las críticas que recibe, se cuenta la de "no haber viajado a Efeso", patria de Hiponacte, yambógrafo de fines del VI siglo a. C., a quien se atribuye la invención del metro coliámbico que Calímaco adopta en la composición de su poema. Esa imagen, la de una travesía no emprendida, habrá de ser vinculada con el mencionado concepto de polieídeia y con los alcances que la metáfora del viaje adquiere, tanto en la tradición de los poetas precedentes como en otras obras del propio alejandrino
