Luta por direitos: estudo sobre a Associação Indígena Tembé de Santa Maria do Pará (AITESAMPA)

As dificuldades enfrentadas pelos povos indígenas no Brasil para fazer valer os direitos conquistados via Constituição Federal de 1988 se constituem em esforço de grande envergadura, especialmente para as associações indígenas, que são importante instrumento de luta na defesa e promoção dos direitos étnicos, formadas a semelhança das organizações não indígenas procuram desenvolver projetos que compreendam a afirmação de identidades étnicas das comunidades e representam os indígenas em negociações internas e externas, contribuindo para a construção da autonomia e autodeterminação dos povos indígenas. A Associação Indígena Tembé de Santa Maria do Pará (AITESAMPA), congrega os Tembé, conhecidos como “de Santa Maria” (Nordeste do estado do Pará) povo que luta pelo reconhecimento identitário e pela demarcação de terras, visto que desde o século XIX, foram escorraçados de suas terras e obrigados a fazer deslocamentos não desejados, até se estabelecerem no, hoje, município de Santa Maria. Estuda-se a atuação da referida Associação, a partir da relevância dos “projetos” sociais e étnicos que permitem o fortalecimento da identidade dos Tembé. Analisam-se as estratégias elaboradas, via “projetos”, desenvolvidos pela Associação para a defesa dos direitos indígenas e promoção de diálogo com o Estado brasileiro e a sociedade não indígena que teimam em não aceitá-los, especialmente, porque são “desconhecidos” na literatura etnológica que trabalha a partir dos Tembé localizados no Alto Rio Guamá. O trabalho desenvolve-se a partir das narrativas indígenas e do acompanhamento da movimentação social.

Um estudo das consoantes róticas nas Cantigas de Santa Maria

Este trabalho de monografia visa iniciar uma discussão acerca de aspectos fonológicos relativos às consoantes róticas no Português Arcaico, a partir da análise de um recorte das Cantigas de Santa Maria, de Afonso X (1121-1284). Foi realizado um levantamento da forma gráfica das palavras para a posterior quantificação das ocorrências de róticas nessas palavras. Depois de analisada a literatura básica relativa ao PA, foram feitas considerações sobre o corpus deste trabalho, no que diz respeito às afirmações feitas pelos autores estudados. A partir dos resultados desse estudo, constatamos a semelhança existente entre os sistemas consonantais do Português Arcaico e do Português Brasileiro, principalmente no que diz respeito: a) aos processos de neutralização de róticas em contexto de coda e b) aos grafemas e , que já não representavam em PA sons de caráter distintivo no contexto de travamento silábico, como ocorre em PB

Análise das fricativas em posição de coda nas Cantigas de Santa Maria

The present study has as main objectives the mapping and the analysis of fricatives in coda position in Galician-Portuguese religious songs of Alfonso X, the Wise King. The consonant system of BP, specifically with respect to fricatives, will be considered as object of study. The initial approach of the data, to establish whether there is opposition between the sounds represented by the focused graphemes, will be taken from the structuralism model (CAGLIARI, 2002). Thus, the elucidation of some characteristics of Portuguese linguistic background may contribute to clarify facts of its current structure

Formação de nomes deverbais nas Cantigas de Santa Maria

This research aims to present and discuss three morphophonological processes – juxtaposition, allomorphy of the verbal thematic vowel and gemination of similar vowels – which occurs in word formation involving the suffixes -çon and -mento in a corpus composed of 420 Cantigas de Santa Maria. The cases analyzed in this study occurred with nouns from verbs of the first, second and third conjugations. Through the analysis of these processes we conclude that the suffix -çon triggers more morphophonological processes than the suffix -mento. However, although the processes are very productive, we note that most of the names were formed from the juxtaposition of the suffixes - especially in nouns formed with -mento – which shows a tendency to regularity in the word formation with these suffixes.

Sândi: considerações sobre o status prosódico dos clíticos nas Cantigas de Santa Maria

This article intends to study sandhi phenomena in Archaic Portuguese (13th century), in order to obtain clues about the prosodic status of clitics. Analyzing the texts of the reminiscent religious medieval cantigas (420 Cantigas de Santa Maria, compiled by Alfonso X, the Wise) this study intends to determine the cliticization direction, in order to find clues to the formation of superior prosodic constituents, based on the consideration of the syntactic structure of the sentence and the direction of the syntactic cliticization.

Estudo sobre o acento secundário e a tonicidade dos monossílabos em português arcaico por meio da música e da métrica das Cantigas de Santa Maria

This paper aims to make a study on secondary stress and stress of monosyllabic words in Archaic Portuguese. With regard to secondary stress, our intention is to demonstrate its limits of occurrence. And about monosyllabic words, the aim is to analyse its stress attribution and the possibility of those words assume prominences in the linguistic level demonstrating or not its prosodic independence. The data will be collected by means of a new methodology in the study of the prosody of dead language. This methodology is based on the observation of coincidences and non-coincidences of musical prominences of poetic texts with musical notation, and linguistic prominences.

O comportamento prosódico dos monossílabos no português arcaico por meio das Cantigas de Santa Maria

This paper aims to conduct a study on the prosodic behavior of monosyllables in Medieval Portuguese. This research is based on an innovative methodology that observes the relation between musical and linguistic prominences and its contributions for data collection regarding the prosodic structure of the language in study. There are in Medieval Portuguese heavy (tonic) monosyllables and light (atonic) monosyllables with diverse syllabic structure. The onset is irrelevant for the syllabic weight. Monosyllables with a consonant in the coda are heavy unless this consonant represents an inflexion element. Monosyllables with no consonant in the coda are normally light but there are also heavy monosyllables with no consonant in the coda.

Proparoxítonas no português arcaico: uma análise por meio da música e do texto das Cantigas de Santa Maria

This paper aims to conduct a study on proparoxytones in Medieval Portuguese through an innovative methodology based on the observation of coincidences and no-coincidences of musical and linguistic prominences of poetic texts with musical notation.. This methodology allowed us to verify the existence of a hundred and thirteen proparoxytones words in a corpus constituted by the first hundred Cantigas de Santa Maria. It was possible to locate the stressed syllable in 92,93% of the found words.

Variability of rainfall and temperature (1912-2008) parameters measured from Santa Maria (29 degrees 41 ' S, 53 degrees 48 ' W) and their connections with ENSO and solar activity

In this work, we analyze the long term variability of rainfall and temperature (1912-2008) of Santa Maria (29 degrees S, 53 degrees W) and its possible connection with natural influences such as solar activity and ENSO. Temperature and rainfall present similar frequencies as revealed by spectral analyses. This analysis shows a large number of short periods between 2-8 years and periods of 11.8-12.3, 19.1-21.0, and 64.3-82.5 years. The cross correlation for rainfall and temperature versus Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) have higher cross-power around 2-8 yr. Rainfall and temperature versus sunspot number (Rz) showed higher cross-power around the 11-yr solar cycle period. A high and continuous cross correlation was observed for Rz-22 yr versus rainfall and temperature. Furthermore, the power between 22-yr solar cycle and meteorological parameters was higher than that obtained with the 11-yr solar cycle, suggesting that the effect of Hale cycle on climate may be stronger than the Schwabe cycle effect. These results indicate that the variability of rainfall and temperature is closely related to the variation of the Southern Oscillation Index and solar activity, and that the El Nino Southern Oscillation and solar activity probably play an important role in the climate system over Southern Brazil.

Taxonomical study on a sample of pulmonates from Santa Maria da Vitória, Bahia, Brazil, with description of a new genus and four new species (Mollusca: Orthalicidae and Megalobulimidae)

A sample of Pulmonata collected in Santa Maria da Vitória, interior of Bahia, Brazil, in Caatinga semi-arid environment, is studied taxonomically. From the five species, four are revealed as new, including a new genus. The new taxa are the Bulimulidae (1) Kora corallina gen. et sp. n. characterized by the elongated shell with aperture somewhat dislocated from the shell axis, and an oblique tooth in middle level of inner lip; (2) Spixia coltrorum, mainly characterized by an uneven spire, delicate sculpture and peristome with 4 equidistant teeth; (3) Anostoma tessa, mainly characterized by a broad spire and well-developed anal canal; and the Megalobulimidae (4) Megalobulimus amandus, mainly characterized by pointed protoconch sculptured by dense quantity of axial cords. Rhinus suturalis is the only previously known species, but its geographic distribution is expanded southwards to Bahia state. A discussion with respect to necessity for improving the study on the malacofauna from the interior region of the Brazilian Northeast and the importance for preservation of the Caatinga biome is also provided.

Cirrus clouds observation in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul during the experiment Chuva - Sul.

Cirrus clouds are an interesting point in the research of the atmosphere due their behavior and the effect on the earth radiation budget. They can affect the atmospheric radiation budget by reflecting the incoming solar radiation and absorbing the outgoing terrestrial radiation. Also, this cloud type is involved in the dehydration of the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. So, it is interesting to increment the measurements of this type of clouds from the ground. During November and December 2012, through the CHUVA-SUL campaign, measurements with lidar in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul were conducted. The system installed in Santa Maria site (29.8 °S; 53.7 °W, 100 m asl) was a single elastic-backscatter lidar using the wavelength of 532 nm. Some days with cirrus clouds lidar measurements were detected. Four days with presence of cirrus cloud are showed in the present study. These days, 7, 8, 19 and 28 November 2012, was selected due the persistence of cirrus clouds over many hours. The raw retrieval lidar signals and inverted backscatter coefficient profiles were analyzed for the selected days. Base and top height was obtained by analysis of raw signal and backscatter coefficient. Extinction coefficient profiles were obtained by the assumption of the lidar ratio. Cirrus cloud optical depth (COD) values were calculated, from the integration of the extinction coefficient between the base and top altitudes of the cirrus clouds.
