A documentação de Paul Otlet : uma proposta para a organização racional da produção intelectual do homem

A pesquisa procura identificar e analisar as circunstâncias e motivações teóricas que levaram ao surgimento, no final do século XIX, da área de estudo denominada Documentação. Apresenta informações biográficas sobre os principais artífices deste projeto, os advogados e bibliógrafos belgas, Paul Otlet e Henri La Fontaine, que visaram ampliar a compreensão sobre o meio social e cultural em que atuaram. Procura ampliar a discussão sobre os fatores que motivaram em 1895 a proposta de organização racional de toda a produção intelectual do homem. Apresenta em linhas gerais a visão abrangente e integradora da Documentação que eliminando barreiras físicas, acessava acervos arquivísticos, bibliográficos e museológicos para o registro integral dos assuntos pesquisados. Discute a utilização da Classificação Decimal de Dewey (CDD) na criação do Repertório Bibliográfico Universal e analisa o processo que levou ao surgimento da Classificação Decimal Universal (CDU). Conclui sugerindo a inclusão desta visão extensiva e integradora da documentação ao referencial teórico da Ciência da Informação. Sugere que o resgate deste aporte teórico poderá contribuir para um melhor enfrentamento dos problemas da gestão do conhecimento registrado, produzido e acumulado até os dias atuais, nos mais diversos formatos, suportes e repositórios.

Limited Excavations at the Gassaway-Feldmeyer House, 18AP49, 194 Prince George Street, Annapolis, Maryland

194 Prince George Street, known as the Gassaway-Feldmeyer house, was excavated in April of 1988. The property, in residential use from the 19th century, is owned by Historic Annapolis Foundation. Excavators found evidence of some intact 19th century levels and no trace of the 18th century. Unfortunately, parts of the site were disturbed by 20th century gardening activities. Further excavation is recommended since the Gassaway-Feldmeyer house may provide valuable information about residences in the 19th century.

“The new Cagliostro”: Onofroff, Rubén Darío and his story "La esfinge"

The article retraces the career of the famous hypnotist Onofroff and particularly his visit to Buenos Aires, where his activity, in 1895, provoked many discussions and some public embarrassment. In this context Darío, using a pseudonym, published his crónica “La esfinge”. We reproduce “La esfinge”, transcribing the original text of La Nación, with annotations identifying the literary and theosophical sources Darío used when he wrote it.

“A Labour Leader in a Frothy Scoundrel”: Farce and Social Justice in the Popular Dramaturgy of George Shiels

In the financially precarious period which followed the partition of Ireland (1922) the Northern Irish playwright George Shiels kept The Abbey Theatre, Dublin, open for business with a series of ‘box-office’ successes. Literary Dublin was not so appreciative of his work as the Abbey audiences dubbing his popular dramaturgy mere ‘kitchen comedy’. However, recent analysts of Irish theatre are beginning to recognise that Shiels used popular theatre methods to illuminate and interrogate instances of social injustice both north and south of the Irish border. In doing so, such commentators have set up a hierarchy between the playwright’s early ‘inferior’ comedies and his later ‘superior’ works of Irish Realism. This article rejects this binary by suggesting that in this early work Shiels’s intent is equally socially critical and that in the plays Paul Twyning, Professor Tim and The Retrievers he is actively engaging with the farcical tradition in order to expose the marginalisation of the landless classes in Ireland in the post-colonial jurisdictions.
