  • Yes, Virginia, Another Ballo Tragico: the National Library of Portugal’S Ballet D’Action Libretti from the First Half of the Nineteenth Century
    YES, VIRGINIA, ANOTHER BALLO TRAGICO: THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF PORTUGAL’S BALLET D’ACTION LIBRETTI FROM THE FIRST HALF OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ligia Ravenna Pinheiro, M.F.A., M.A., B.F.A. Graduate Program in Dance Studies The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Karen Eliot, Adviser Nena Couch Susan Petry Angelika Gerbes Copyright by Ligia Ravenna Pinheiro 2015 ABSTRACT The Real Theatro de São Carlos de Lisboa employed Italian choreographers from its inauguration in 1793 to the middle of the nineteenth century. Many libretti for the ballets produced for the S. Carlos Theater have survived and are now housed in the National Library of Portugal. This dissertation focuses on the narratives of the libretti in this collection, and their importance as documentation of ballets of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, from the inauguration of the S. Carlos Theater in 1793 to 1850. This period of dance history, which has not received much attention by dance scholars, links the earlier baroque dance era of the eighteenth century with the style of ballet of the 1830s to the 1850s. Portugal had been associated with Italian art and artists since the beginning of the eighteenth century. This artistic relationship continued through the final decades of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century. The majority of the choreographers working in Lisbon were Italian, and the works they created for the S. Carlos Theater followed the Italian style of ballet d’action.

  • Location Platform Index: Mapping and Navigation, 1H18
    Location Platform Index: Mapping and Navigation, 1H18 Key vendor rankings and market trends Publication Date: 20 Aug 2018 | Product code: CES006-000033 Eden Zoller Location Platform Index: Mapping and Navigation, 1H18 Summary In brief Ovum©s 1H18 Location Platform Index is a tool that assesses and ranks the major vendors in the location platform market, with particular reference to the mapping and navigation space. The index evaluates vendors on two main criteria: the completeness of their platform and their platform©s market reach. It considers the core capabilities of a location platform along with the information that the platform opens to developers and the wider location community. The index provides an overview of the market and assesses the strengths and weaknesses of each player. It also highlights the key trends in the mapping space that vendors must keep up with if they want to stay ahead of the game. Ovum view . Indoor mapping is becoming as important as outdoor mapping . Indoor mapping covers a wide range of potential use cases in the consumer, enterprise, and wider IoT domains. Indoor mapping technology can help guide and track consumers at indoor venues from shopping malls to stadiums. IoT use cases include tracking assets (e.g. equipment in a factory or hospital); providing parking assistance to driverless cars; and guiding drones delivering packages. Advanced mapping is critical for autonomous driving, and autonomous driving data is key to map enhancement. Highly automated driving (HAD) and HD and 3D maps help advanced driver assistant systems (ADAS) and driverless vehicles to operate. And the data surfaced by autonomous driving solutions is valuable for enhancing map accuracy.

Introduction In February, the Instituto Nacional de Estatística (Portuguese Statistics Institute) disclosed its estimate for 2016, which projected a growth in the Portuguese economy of 1.4%, attributing the acceleration in GDP seen in the last quarter to the increase in the contribution from domestic demand, as a result of investment recovery and a more pronounced growth in private consumption. As such, the positive trend was consolidated, with an impact on the Ibersol Group's performance, as private consumption heightened in a quarter that by nature is very important for Modern Restaurant Services.
