De Portugal para os Sertões do Siará Grande: caminhos de um português em meados do século XV
Get PDFThis article aims to analyze the trajectory of Antônio Mendes do Norte in Portugal until he reached the Captaincy of Ceará, in order to understand the mobility of the population, the favorable traffic to the Sertões, the changes in identities and the realization of commercial activities during the 18th century, more specifically in the 1750s. Based on inquisitorial processes, the Constitutions of the Archbishopric of Bahia and books of tumble, it was possible to trace the motivations for the changes to the Portuguese colony, the ways of using marriage as a strategy of establishment in new territories and an understanding of the ways of life of those who left Portugal, moved through Portuguese America and occupied the backlands of the captaincy of Siará Grande.Este artigo objetiva analisar a trajetória de Antônio Mendes do Norte de Portugal até chegar a Capitania do Ceará, a fim de compreender a mobilidade da população, o trânsito propício aos Sertões, as mudanças de identidades e a realização de atividades comerciais durante o século XVIII, mais especificamente na década de 1750. A partir de processos inquisitoriais, das Constituições do Arcebispado da Bahia e de livros de tombo, foi possível traçar as motivações para as mudanças para a colônia portuguesa, as formas de usos do matrimônio como uma estratégia de estabelecimento em novos territórios e a compreensão das formas de viver dos que saíram de Portugal, transitaram pela América portuguesa e ocuparam os sertões da capitania do Siará Grande.Este artigo objetiva analisar a trajetória de Antônio Mendes do Norte de Portugal até chegar a Capitania do Ceará, a fim de compreender a mobilidade da população, o trânsito propício aos Sertões, as mudanças de identidades e a realização de atividades comerciais durante o século XVIII, mais especificamente na década de 1750.

O imaginário da cidade
Get PDFO Imaginário da Cidade é uma obra que se insere no que chamaríamos de história cultural do urbano, que se propõe a estudar a cidade através de suas representações. É através dessas que a autora, Sandra Jatahy Pesavento, professora e historiadora formada pela UFRGS, mestre em História pela PUCRS e doutora em História pela USP, pós-doutora pela Sourbonne e EHESS, na França e ex- professora do departamento de História da UFRGS, busca retratar o “real do passado”
O Santo Ofício em territórios de mando: agentes inquisitoriais e poder no Ceará, século XVIII
No full textEste trabalho investiga como agentes locais e a sociedade colaboraram com o Santo Ofício, via denúncias, para identificar crimes inquisitoriais no Ceará no século XVIII. Busca-se entender o alcance do tribunal religioso em áreas periféricas, utilizando denúncias para vigiar comportamentos sociais e religiosos esperados pela Igreja Católica. A pesquisa se baseia em denúncias do século XVIII, destacando as experiências e relações dos denunciadores. Além dos processos, utiliza denúncias do caderno do promotor para entender a dinâmica sociocultural e as provisões para perfis de agentes e correspondências, revelando os fluxos de comunicação com Lisboa. No Ceará Grande, o tribunal contou com familiares, comissários, visitas pastorais e uma estrutura eclesiástica com forte presença de vigarias. Bispos eram agentes essenciais na coleta e envio de delações para Lisboa. Os bispados funcionavam como "pequenas Inquisições", controlando brevemente desvios através de "visitas pastorais ou eclesiásticas". O Santo Ofício também utilizava agentes formais e civis, incluindo familiares, espécie de milícia voluntária. Além de análise administrativa, o trabalho examina a vida cotidiana das pequenas comunidades, evidenciando a importância da cultura oral na transmissão e superação de costumes. No contexto das vilas do século XVIII, em território de economia pastoril e agricultura de subsistência, a vigilância inquisitorial questiona como os delitos chegavam aos agentes da Igreja ou Inquisição, refletindo os desejos da população local. O estudo aborda o papel dos agentes coloniais na formação de um novo espaço social e político, distinto da sociedade açucareira, em um ambiente de violência e estratégias de sobrevivência. Analisando o período do século XVIII, coincide com o crescimento econômico das vilas, que trouxe medidas administrativas para regulamentar o controle social, mas também a consolidação das redes eclesiásticas. O estudo investigou a criação de redes de vigilância pela Inquisição e o impacto delas no cotidiano dos habitantes dos sertões, revelando a complexidade das práticas culturais e lutas sociais na capitania do Ceará Grande.This work investigates how local agents and society collaborated with the Court of Holy Office
through denunciations to identify inquisitorial crimes in Ceará in the 18th century. It seeks to
understand the reach of the religious court in peripheral areas, using denunciations to monitor
social and religious behaviors expected by the Catholic Church. The research is based on 18thcentury denunciations, highlighting the experiences and relationships of the informers. Besides
the processes, it uses denunciations from the prosecutor's notes to understand the socio-cultural
dynamics and provisions for agent profiles and correspondence, revealing the communication
flows with Lisbon. In Ceará Grande, the tribunal relied on relatives, commissioners, pastoral
visits, and an ecclesiastical structure with a strong presence of vicarages. Bishops were essential
agents in collecting and sending reports to Lisbon. The bishoprics functioned as "small
Inquisitions," briefly controlling deviations through "pastoral or ecclesiastical visits." The Holy
Office also utilized formal and civil agents, including relatives, a type of voluntary militia. In
addition to administrative analysis, the work examines the daily life of small communities,
highlighting the importance of oral culture in the transmission and overcoming of habits. In the
context of 18th-century villages, in a territory of pastoral economy and subsistence agriculture,
inquisitorial surveillance questions how agents of the Church or Inquisition got to know the
religious crimes, reflecting the desires of the local population. The study addresses the role of
colonial agents in forming a new social and political space, distinct from the “sugar plantation”
society, in an environment of violence and survival strategies. Analyzing the 18th-century
period, it coincides with the economic growth of the villages, which brought administrative
measures to regulate social control, but also the consolidation of ecclesiastical networks. The
study investigated the creation of surveillance networks by the Inquisition and their impact on
the daily lives of the Brazilian northeastern semi-arid lands, revealing the complexity of cultural
practices and social struggles in the province of Ceará Grande.642 p
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
