O papel das Ordens Leigas na configuração urbana da cidade do Rio de Janeiro: 1763-1840

O processo de formação da malha urbana da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, entre outros, foi permeado pelo sentimento religioso de seus habitantes, que em muitos casos reuniam-se em associações religiosas que exerceram um importante papel social, político e econômico na sociedade carioca no período de 1763 a 1840. O presente estudo tem por objetivo apontar as Ordens Leigas - Ordens Terceiras e Irmandades - que no exercício de sua territorialidade, despontaram como um dos agentes de formação da malha urbana do centro da cidade para fora dos limites estabelecidos até o final do século XVIII. Para tanto, buscou-se desvendar as ações estratégicas dessas associações que com suas práticas devocionais como procissões, festas e peregrinações, teriam se apropriado do território do centro da cidade. Igualmente foi investigado, se a partir dessa ocupação, foram executados melhoramentos na região de entorno, seja por parte da administração da cidade, seja por parte de seus próprios integrantes. Foram procedidas análises da arquitetura das igrejas das Ordens Terceiras e Irmandades inseridas na região a fim de verificar quais as influências do sentimento religioso e das disposições eclesiásticas no projeto desses exemplares e identificar na tipologia das formas simbólicas da construção a presença ou não de padronização entre elas.

Cities of God? Medieval urban forms and their Christian Symbolism

Situated in the context of recent geographical engagements with 'landscape', this paper combines 'morphological' and 'iconographic' landscape interpretations to examine how urban forms were perceived in late medieval Europe. To date, morphological studies have mapped the medieval city either by classifying urban layouts according to particular types, or by analysing plan forms of particular towns and cities to reveal their spatial evolution. This paper outlines a third way, an 'iconographic' approach, which shows how urban forms in the Middle Ages conveyed Christian symbolism. Three such 'mappings' explore this thesis: the first uses textual and visual representations which show that the city was understood as a scaled-down world â?? a microcosm â?? linking city and cosmos in the medieval mind; the second 'mapping' develops this theme further and suggests that urban landscapes were inscribed with symbolic form through their layout on the ground; while the third looks at how Christian symbolism of urban forms was performed through the urban landscape in perennial religious processions. Each of these 'mappings' points to the symbolic, mystical significance urban form had in the Middle Ages, based on religious faith, and they thus offer a deepened appreciation of how urban landscapes were represented, constructed and experienced at the time.

De triomf van de tiran: Triumphi als kritiekmiddel in Romeinse literatuur

Of all the rituals of ancient Rome none was more spectacular than the triumph. Scholarly attention has long been devoted to the origins and circumstances of this ritual, but lately the role of the triumph in moral discourse has also come into focus. Emperors could gain great military prestige from celebrating a triumphus, yet this prestige could (posthumously) be undermined by hostile historians and biographers who used descriptions of triumphal processions to cast unpopular emperors in a negative light. Discussing in particular the ‘bad triumphs’ of Nero, Elagabalus, and Gallienus, but also considering many other cases, this article explores how triumphal descriptions could be employed as literary weapons. Ancient authors did not hesitate to emphasize, distort, or invent certain aspects of the ritual to suit their purposes. In fact, the triumphal idiom proved such a powerful tool for the delegitimation of emperors that it was even employed to situations which did not constitute triumphal celebrations at all. Hence the cultural elite sought to control the meaning of the ritual and to establish whether emperors counted as benign rulers or tyrants.
