A república paraense em festa (1890-1911)

A proposta desta dissertação é discutir a formação do poder simbólico da República Paraense nos seus primeiros anos (1890-1911), observando eventos como a mudança dos nomes de algumas ruas em homenagem ao novo regime, assim como a formulação do calendário republicano, com destaque para os festejos republicanos de 15 e 16 de novembro, datas da Proclamação da República e sua Aclamação no Pará, com o objetivo de analisar seus significados, organização e, principalmente, o entendimento da idéia de fortalecer as práticas do novo governo perante a sociedade. Além dessas festas, destacam-se nessa abordagem os banquetes, reuniões políticas promovidas pela elite da época. Essa pesquisa apresentou-se como possibilidade a ser trabalhada, uma vez que partindo de outro enfoque, serão discutidas as idéias, os personagens, os discursos, as intrigas e as alianças que estiveram presentes nesse período político marcante da história regional e nacional a partir dessas comemorações.

La musa bambina. 1911-2011: un secolo di letteratura mitologica per ragazzi in Italia tra storia, educazione e narrazione

Questa ricerca mostra l’evoluzione della letteratura mitologica per ragazzi in Italia. Il primo libro italiano di mitologia per bambini è stato pubblicato nel 1911 (lo stesso anno di un’importante e violenta guerra coloniale tra l’Italia e la Libia): la scrittrice italiana Laura Orvieto pubblicò allora “Storie della storia del mondo”, in cui riunì antichi racconti greci per giovani lettori. Queste storie erano ispirate al libro mitologico per bambini “Il libro delle meraviglie” di Hawthorne (titolo originale “A Wonder Book for Girls and Boys”). In seguito molti scrittori italiani scrissero libri mitologici per giovani lettori: serie importanti di libri di mitologia per bambini furono pubblicate durante il regime mussoliniano – talvolta per diffondere l’ideologia fascista della superiorità romana. Durante questo periodo, i libri mitologici spesso mostravano uno stile letterario solenne. Dopo la seconda guerra mondiale, la letteratura mitologica per bambini cambiò lentamente prospettiva: gli scrittori italiani cominciarono ad usare il mito per parlare di problemi sociali (p.e. Gianni Rodari descriveva re Mida come un capitalista) e per spiegare le diverse condizioni umane (p.e. Beatrice Masini fa riferimento alle dee e alle eroine greche per descrivere la condizione femminile). La ricerca analizza anche la relazione tra mito e scuola in Italia: i racconti mitologici hanno sempre fatto parte dei programmi scolastici italiani per bambini dagli 8 agli 11 anni. Le riforme scolastiche – deliberate negli anni ’20 e ’40 – fissarono pratiche didattiche sui miti ancora oggi in uso. I racconti mitologici erano soprattutto un supporto per gli studi storici e letterari. Tuttavia, negli ultimi decenni, i miti sono divenuti un importante aiuto per gli insegnamenti scientifici e artistici.
