Variations on the Author
“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
Gate-Bias Induced RON Instability in p-GaN Power HEMTs
In this letter, we investigate the on-resistance ( RON ) instability in p-GaN power HEMTs induced by a positive or negative gate bias ( VGB ), following the application of a quasi-static initialization voltage ( VGP ) of opposite sign. The transient behavior of this instability was characterized at different temperatures in the 90–135 °C range. By monitoring the resulting drain current transients, the activation energy as well as time constants of the processes are characterized. Not trivially, both RON increase/decrease were found to be thermally activated and with same activation energy. We attribute the thermal activation of both RON increase/decrease to the charging/discharging of hole traps present in the AlGaN barrier in the region below the gate
Anna Maria Post Office
Cars park in front of the Anna Maria Post Office in the shopping Center at 10005 Gulf Drive. Anna Maria, the oldest of Anna Maria Island's three cities, got its first post office on February 8, 1904 with Samuel C. Cobb as first postmaster, followed by H.H. Whitehead in 1915 and James G. Whitehead in 1919. Harry Ditmas, an Anna Maria city commissioner, followed in 1922 and brought mail to the Island beginning in 1924 in a truck remodeled to look like an old pioneer prairie schooner. He used to dress up as Uncle Sam. He died in 1956 at age 79. When Ditmas took a four year vacation from the mail route in 1932 to 1936, Eleanor Gill delivered mail around Anna Maria Island in her 1932 station wagon, when there were only sand and shell for roads. There were only 37 rural mailboxes back then. Mary Standifer was postal clerk when this photo was taken in 1982. Ron Smith began as a postal clerk in 1971 and was postmaster for 13 years, 1988-2001. He oversaw the move in 2000 from this little storefront post office to a larger building at 101B South Bay Boulevard. He was followed in 2001 by Danny Haynes, a 1973 graduate of Southeast High School. Long time postal clerk Judy Adams also retired in 2001. Her father-in-law Sam Adams began working there in 1943 and stayed eleven years

Santa Maria di Loreto a Milano: i progetti di Francesco Maria Richino e i "sacri ragionamenti" di Federico Borromeo
Federico Borromeo asked Francesco Maria Richino for some projects for the new church dedicated to Santa Maria di Loreto outside the Porta Orientale in Milan. The author debates the connections between the omely wrote by Federico Borromeo and the plans of the church
Imagens de Otto Maria Carpeaux: esboço de biografia
Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em História, Florianópolis, 2015.Este esboço de biografia procura citar algumas imagens de Otto Maria Carpeaux: construções biográficas de naturezas múltiplas, elaboradas em contextos, por atores e sob condições igualmente díspares. Está constituído a partir de uma visão crítica da História, o que permite que ?outras imagens?, fragmentárias e não monumentais, também tenham espaço. Em diálogo com o princípio da montagem, este esboço apresenta-se em duas partes. Na primeira, Imagens possíveis, estão citadas as imagens elaboradas em vida e post mortem acerca do austríaco-brasileiro que nasceu em Viena em 1900, se exilou no Brasil em 1939 e morreu no Rio de Janeiro, em 1978. Na segunda, Montagens possíveis, apresentam-se duas possibilidades de exercício biográfico: pela leitura alegórica do documentário O velho e o Novo (Otto Maria Carpeaux), entendido como instrumento de intervenção no contexto ditatorial brasileiro e de uma reelaboração biográfica concernentes às suas experiências europeias; e pelo Caderno de imagens críticas, registro dos encontros em Carpeaux pelo meio de imagens críticas produzidas a partir da cesura do presente.Abstract : This biographical sketch attempts to quote some images of Otto Maria Carpeaux: various types of biographical constructions, carried out in different contexts by disparate authors under conditions just as distinct. It stems from a critical view of history, allowing for ?other images? fragmented and non-monumental ? to share the space.In dialogue with the montage principle, this sketch has two parts. The first, Possible Images, quotes the images produced during and after the life of the Austrian-Brazilian, who was born in Vienna in 1900, went to Brazil in exile in 1939 and died in Rio de Janeiro in 1978. The second part, Possible Montages, presents two possibilities of a biographical exercise: through the allegorical reading of documentary O Velho e o Novo (Otto Maria Carpeaux), understood as an instrument of intervention in the Brazilian dictatorship context and as a biographical retelling of the author?s European experiences; and through my Scrapbook of Critical Images, a record of the encounters in Carpeaux through critical images produced from the caesura of the present

Maria meu amor… Uma leitura d’<em>A Monja de Lisboa</em> de Agustina Bessa-Luís [Elektronisk resurs]
É por considerar que a obra A Monja de Lisboa de Agustina Bessa Luís tem um lugar seminal para a compreensão do conjunto da produção historiográfica da autora, que proponho desenvolver uma reflexão à volta do género biográfico, atentando, mais precisamente, nas implicações do acto de biografar e no seu impacto na imagem do sujeito biografado. As reflexões à volta da identidade de género trazidas pelo método metabiográfico definido por Dhúill, servirá para mostrar como a autora procura questionar as “narrativas de género” oferecidas pelos textos biográficos que ela reinveste para as desconstruir e dar um novo rosto à personagem histórica, Maria da Visitação. As I consider the work A Monja de Lisboa by Agustina Bessa Luís has a seminal place for the understanding of the whole historiographical production of this author, I propose to develop a reflection around the biographical genre, paying especial attention to the implications of the act of biographing and its impact on the image of the biographee. The reflections related to gender identity brought by the metabiographical method defined by Dhúill, will be used to show how the author seeks to question the “gender narratives” offered by the biographical texts she reinvests in her work to deconstruct them and be able to draw a new face for the historical figure, Maria da Visitação.</p
