EURICO ALFREDO NELSON (1862-1939) E A INSERÇÃO DOS BATISTAS EM BELÉM DO PARÁ

Esta dissertação propõe-se apresentar alguns aspectos que favoreceram a chegada do cristianismo batista em Belém do Pará, nos idos do século XIX e XX. Além disso, se fará uma descrição da urbe, apontando alguns fatores que possibilitaram a imigração de Eurico Nelson. Trata-se de um sueco batista que veio viver pela fé numa cidade visivelmente adensada pelo processo de exploração da borracha e que permitia em seu cenário a movimentação de várias pessoas de diferentes nacionalidades, além do próprio homem procedente da Amazônia, que guarda forte herança indígena. Far-se-á um recorte dos seis primeiros anos da atuação de Eurico Nelson na cidade, analisando suas atividades religiosas nesse contexto cultural tão diferente do seu, como ponto de partida para entender as tessituras do cotidiano batista emergente no Pará. Ou seja, há uma suspeita de que os batistas de Belém do Pará, na história da implantação desta igreja, possuem características pouco contempladas por sua historiografia tradicional, que provavelmente decorrem da dinâmica de inserção neste contexto urbano específico.

Los colegios de la provincia agustiniana matritense en la época franquista (1939-1975) . proyecto educativo : evolución ideológica y organizativa.

Mostrar la labor desarrollada en enseñanza primaria y secundaria por la Provincia Agustiniana Matritense, una de las cuatro provincias religiosas de agustinos existentes en España, durante el franquismo. La investigación consta de cuatro partes. La primera, de carácter introductorio, intenta determinar el encuadre histórico en el que se desarrolla la acción educativa analizada a fin de abordarla desde una perspectiva total. Para ello se ha profundizado en la historia y en la política educativa de España durante la etapa franquista. La segunda parte, titulada 'proyecto educativo', aborda el modo de entender la educación y la evolución que estas ideas tienen entre los religiosos agustino. Se ha tratado de descubrir la mentalidad colectiva presente en la institución, ya que es un elemento relevante para explicar las líneas educativas de la misma. El tercer bloque, titulado 'metodología-didáctica', está centrado en la organización y puesta en práctica de las propuestas educativas agustinianas. Para tal cometido se ha estudiado el papel desempeñado por cada grupo dentro de la comunidad educativa, haciendo hincapié en la dirección de los centros, en los profesores, en los alumnos y en los mecanismos escolares y paraescolares establecidos. El cuarto apartado de la investigación, 'Economía', está dedicado al estudio del funcionamiento económico de los centros, abordando para ello la función económica-social que la Provincia desarrolló, y se han expuesto los ingresos y los gastos de los colegios y las fórmulas financieras utilizadas para sostenerlos. Asimismo, se ha presentado la organización contable de cada colegio y de la Provincia Matritense en general, y se ha estudiado el proceso de construcción de los grandes colegios levantados en la década de los 60, evaluando la política estatal de ayuda a la iniciativa privada. Un elemento común a lo largo de la época estudiada es la comprensión del hecho educativo como campo privilegiado para ejercer labores de apostolado. La consecución de buenos cristianos se muestra como objetivo irrenunciable en todos los centros y en todos los años, aunque ése es un objetivo general unido a otros de orden intelectual y formativo que no son ignorados. La comprensión del hombre se fundamenta en la doctrina del fundador de la Orden, San Agustín, y permanecerá inamovible en sus principios básicos. De ella parte la consideración del niño como algo bueno, como creación divina y por tanto con una orientación claramente positiva. Existió una clara evolución en cuanto a lo que se refiere a la fe y a la religión, desembocando en una preferencia por la vivencia de la fe y de la religión más que en los rituales de la misma. Se otorgó gran importancia al conocimiento práctico y experimental combinado con el uso de la memoria como medio. Aunque la función esencial de los centros fue despertar nuevas vocaciones religiosas, es indiscutible que muchos de los educandos que por allí pasaron y posteriormente decidieron realizar estudios distintos de los eclesiásticos fueron becados directamente con los fondos económicos provinciales. Desde el principio del régimen, los provinciales fueron elegidos democráticamente por todos los miembros de la Provincia y se dejó un gran número de decisiones que afectaban a los centros en manos de cada comunidad; no obstante, los colegios no eran autónomos y dependían jerárquicamente de las decisiones de los capítulos provinciales y de los provinciales electos que eran los responsables de la configuración de las plantillas directivas y tenían la capacidad legal para orientar el funcionamiento de los centros. Los documentos emanados de la Curia afectaban a todos los centros dependientes, marcando algunas características propias a sus cargos. El uso de formas democráticas no afectaba a los profesores seglares. Durante el proceso de tecnificación de los centros, se produjo la evolución más significativa, ya que se produjeron cambios profundos en un período de tiempo relativamente corto y afectó a muchos ámbitos. La intención prioritaria de la concesión de ayudas gubernamentales en forma de créditos fue solventar el problema de incremento de demanda en educación, no tanto favorecer a la Iglesia; a este respecto, resulta significativo que este apoyo monetario no se dio en los primeros veinte años del régimen, sólo cuando la demanda social se hizo insostenible se recurrió a fórmulas de este tipo.

Rintamamiesten muonitus Suomessa sotavuosina 1939-1945

This study analyzes the war-time rations the Finnish soldiers received on the front from 1939 until 1945. The main objective was to determine the contents of the rations and how they affected the soldiers' nutrition and morale. The information concerning food and feeding is mainly based on the official documents found in the Military Archives. Some additional material was from the historical literature, some from memoirs, or from the veterans who personally experienced the front. The documents in the Archives of Military Medicine provided information on the soldiers' deficiencies. During the Winter War, which took place from 30 November 1939 until 13 March 1940, ample food was available. The cold climate caused problems and the fresh food got frozen. However, no severe deficiency cases were reported and the morale was high. By contrast, during the Continuation War, which began in June, 1941 and ended in September, 1944, difficulties were experienced. At the time farming in the country faced serious problems due to the shortage of labour, fuel, etc. Furthermore, importing food was generally not possible. However, importing food mainly from Germany saved the Finns from hunger. In addition, the self activity of the soldiers on the front added somewhat to the food production. But the rations had to be reduced. Their energy values were consequently low, especially for the young men. Food was monotonous and occasionally caused complaints. The main sources of protein, vitamins and minerals were the whole cereal foods. Butter was fortified with vitamin A and vitamin C tablets were also distributed, to compensate for the scant food sources. Only approximately 300 serious deficiency cases required hospital care during the three years time, out of a total of 400 000 soldiers. Feeding the young soldiers during the war (1944 - 1945) in Lapland, which had been destroyed, was problematic but the increased rations also saved them from deficiencies. In spite of the severe difficulties experienced occasionally in feeding the soldiers during the wars, the system worked all the time. The soldiers were fed, the cases of nutritional deficiency and epidemics caused by food were kept very limited and the morale of soldiers remained high.
