Rubem Fonseca and Noir Literature
No full textRubem Fonseca is considered a key author in the introduction of crime fiction in Brazil. This article reviews his contribution to the genre and analyzes the specifics of his narrative in the context of Brazilian literature, in which Fonseca breaks from and exceeds the traditional dichotomies between high and popular literature. Fonseca becomes part of the distinct tradition of crime fiction, which he reinterprets differently in his short stories by giving voice to the marginalized, and in his novels by incorporating elements of hardboiled, noir fiction, and even whodunit. The character of Mandrake is situated in a context that increasingly includes paraliterary concerns

A movência do ficcional em Rubem Fonseca: biografia e narrativa em Bufo & Spallanzani
No full textEste artigo abordará as relações entre história e biografia a partir do romance Bufo & Spallanzani, de Rubem Fonseca. O livro será tomado como um tipo de "escrita de si", investigando a idéia de "onipresença invisível" para explicar o controle que o escritor mantém sobre a sua obra. Nesse processo, interessa-nos pensar o que Verena Alberti chama de "deslizamento entre autor e personagem", onde, imbuído da tarefa de "outrar-se" através das personagens, o autor se coloca na "zona de sombra", região composta pelo "ângulo de refração" entre autor e personagem, segundo Costa Lima. A hipótese é a de que a persona literária do escritor Rubem Fonseca foi tecida tendo como base a ficcionalização de si mesmo, silenciando algumas facetas da sua vida pública (como a participação no Ipes) enquanto outras foram exaltadas (como a censura).

ABSTRACT:
This article aims to emphasize the relations
between History and Biografy through Rubem Fonseca\u27s novel Bufo & Spallanzani. The book will be took as a kind of "himself writing" investigating the idea of "invisible omnipresence" to explain the control that writer keeps about his work. In this process, is interesting to think what Verena Albert called "sliding between author and character", which, involved in the activity of "to be another" through his characters, the author put himself in a "shadow\u27s zone", area composed by the "refraction\u27s angle" between author and character, according to Costa Lima. The hypothesis is that the literary persona of Rubem Fonseca\u27s writer was woven based on the process of create a fiction of himself, keeping silence about certain aspects of his public life (as the participation in Ipes), while another are glorify (as the censorship).

Luís Adão da Fonseca: an academic master
No full textNum misto de homenagem e de exercício de memória, o Autor procura traçar o
percurso académico de Luís Adão da Fonseca desde que regressou a Portugal, em
1981, depois de uma prolongada estadia em Espanha, desde 1973. Seu colaborador
próximo, quer como seu Assistente mas também associado a vários projectos que
levou a cabo, sobretudo em torno da aproximação entre os medievalistas portugueses
e espanhóis, que durante décadas se tinham quase sempre ignorado, fui testemunha
privilegiada no processo de criação da Sociedade Portuguesa de Estudos Medievais,
no impulso dado à realização das Jornadas Luso-Espanholas de História Medieval ou
na criação de Cátedras sobre História Medieval de Portugal e de Espanha em várias
universidades dos dois países. Ao abrir-me a porta das universidades e da historiografia
espanholas, das quais sou muito próximo, por outro lado, o pelo seu apoio
permanente no início da minha carreira como professor, e a sua postura ética como
docente e como investigador, Luís Fonseca foi essencial na minha formação como
académico nas suas diversas vertentes, razões que fazem dele, junto com José Mattoso,
um dos meus Mestres.As an homage and as a memory exercise, the author seeks to trace the academic path
of Luís Adão da Fonseca since he returned to Portugal in 1981, after a prolonged
stay in Spain since 1973. As his close collaborator, both as an assistant and also
associated with various projects that he carried out, especially around the alignment
between Portuguese and Spanish medievalists (who for decades almost always
ignored each other), it is worth mentioning the process of creating of the Portuguese
Society of Medieval Studies, of which the author was a close witness. In this same
sense, it is important to mention the impulse given to the organization of the Luso-
Spanish Journeys of Medieval History or to the creation of Chairs on Medieval
History of Portugal and Spain in several universities in both countries. Luís Adão da
Fonseca supported my contact with Spanish universities and historiography, to which
I remain very close, while at the same time encouraged the beginning of career as a
professor and offered me the example of an ethical posture as a teacher and as a
researcher. He was essential in my formation as an academic in its various aspects,
reasons that make him, along with José Mattoso, one of my Mentors

Vegetation Dynamics - Ecosystem Management, Conservation, and Protection
No full textThis book entitled Vegetation Dynamics – Ecosystem Management, Conservation, and Protection has eight chapters, four related to vegetation dynamics and four related to monitoring and management.
In the introductory chapter, Ana Cristina Gonçalves and Teresa Fidalgo Fonseca discussed the importance of species traits and sites in the sustainability of the forest systems as well as the importance of monitoring, modelling and management. Mariana Niculescu discussed the effects of the changes in management practices, invasive species, climate change and mining on meadows and forest systems in Romania. The author pinpointed the effects of unsuitable management on the sustainability of the agroforestry systems. Overall, maintaining agroforestry sustainability, with suitable management practices, would enable regenerating vegetation.
Arvid Odland evaluated the effect of water reduction on forest floodplain wetlands. The species proportion and cover were influenced by its capacity for flowering and fruiting, which were also related to the temperature and water level. This review highlighted the importance of long-term studies as vegetation dynamics evolve slowly over time. Mallem Hamida evaluated the effect of vegetation on soil rehabilitation in pre-desert conditions, particularly in wind erosion mitigation and soil properties improvement in Algeria. Vegetation enhanced dune stabilisation due to its impact on wind erosion, and vegetation improved soil properties. However, variations were found when different species were compared. António L. Crespí et al. explored the concept of vegetation robustness and proposed a methodological approach to characterise the functional traits of vegetation and their potential correlation with environmental factors. The study indicated that the
resilience of these areas was influenced by their resistance and was linked to environmental variability, particularly geomorphological and climatic factors. Damien Hicks reviewed the influence of sampling vegetation and a set of quantitative tools to analyse data. It included the optimisation protocols to enable the use of data for different analyses, from multivariate analysis to complex statistical analysis of data with network structure, machine learning methods and Bayesian methods. Fonseca et al. conducted a comprehensive review of the traits, silviculture and management of Pseudotsuga menziesii in Portugal. The authors analysed the area potentially suitable for establishing stands of this species in Portugal, as well as its potential growth and wood properties. Iglesias et al. discussed the effects of pure, even-aged plantations of Eucalyptus globulus and invasive species on biodiversity and using an invasive species (Phytolacca americana) to produce pulp and paper. The physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of Phytolacca americana confirmed that the species is suitable for producing paper in a pulp blend of the two species
