  • Portuguese History Storyboard
    Portuguese history storyboard Cláudia Martins [email protected] Instituto Politécnico de Bragança Escola Superior de Educação Abstract This paper intends to present relevant facts about the Portuguese culture and history, so as to enable a better understanding of who the Portuguese are and provide an overall perspective of the course of history in this westernmost part of Europe. Although the choice of historical facts was subjective by nature, it is believed it achieves the aim of presenting information in a critical but blithesome way, with a view to also deconstructing national stereotypes, such as that Portuguese people are always late or are crazy about football. Finally, it focuses on some information about the Portuguese language mainly to serve as a term of comparison with other European languages. Keywords: Portuguese culture, Portuguese language, historical facts, national symbols and icons. Introduction This paper starts with providing a brief introduction to Portugal, by focusing on general information about aspects such as our governmental system and suffrage, national languages, territory and climate, literacy and education, and national 146 Elisabete Silva, Clarisse Pais, Luís S. Pais holidays. Then five historical events of the utmost importance for the history of Portugal will be referred to, namely the independence of the kingdom in the 12th century, the two main struggles to regain independence towards Spain due to the succession crises (in the 14th century and then in the 17th century), the liberal revolution of the 19th century, the birth of the Republic at the beginning of the 20th century and the right-wing dictatorship which was overthrown by the Carnation Revolution of 1974.

    PerГіn, Evita, and Their Comedians: A Study of How Dictatorships Operate, Affonso Henriques, Catherine B. Correa, 1999, 0967649803, 9780967649801, . DOWNLOAD http://bit.ly/1i3DejG , , , , . Dom Afonso had a military career. In fact, he was a general of some considerable competence in the Portuguese Army, where, previously, he had been the inspector-general of artillery. His exemplary military background allowed him to be chosen to command military forces at Goa, at the end of the nineteenth century, when he was, concurrently, Viceroy of India. His performance in India motivated his nomination to be Constable of Portugal. In the early months of 1890, his engagement to Archduchess Marie Valerie of Austria was publicised, but later she refused to married him, under the influence of her aunt by marriage, Archduchess Maria Theresa of Austria, of the Miguelist branch of the Braganza Dynasty. Dom Afonso was a lady's man, known for his kindness, simplicity, and bon-vivant lifestyle. For instance, he liked to act as a fireman with the Ajuda Fire Corps near the Palace of Ajuda, which he patronized as honorary commander-in-chief. He lived at the Palace of Ajuda with the Queen Mother, Maria Pia of Savoy, after King Luis's death. (His brother, the king, Carlos, and, later, his nephew, the king, Manuel II, both lived at the Palace of Necessidades during their reigns.) Dom Afonso was also a lover of automobile races, and he was responsible for the first motor races in Portugal, where he was one of the first drivers. After the proclamation of the Portuguese First Republic in 1910, Afonso went into exile abroad, first at Gibraltar with his nephew, the deposed king, Manuel II, and afterwards to Italy with his mother, Queen Maria Pia.

  • Notas De Arqueologia, Epigrafia E Toponímia – III
    Notas de arqueologia, epigrafia e toponímia – III JORGE DE ALARCÃO RESUMODiscute-se a identificação de alguns lugares da Lusitânia mencionados pelas fontes clássicas (Portus Hannibalis, Laccobriga, Statio Sacra, Merobriga, Portucale) ou conhecidos atra- vés de legendas monetárias (Cilpes, Ipses). Acrescentam-se uma nota sobre Conimbriga do século V d.C. e sobre os atuns que, segundo Políbio e Estrabão, se alimentavam de bolota. ABSTRACTFollowing some notes on archaeology, epigraphy and toponymy of Roman Portugal published in previous issues of Revista Portuguesa de Arqueologia, the location of Cilpes, Portus Hannibalis, Laccobriga, Ipses, Statio Sacra, Merobriga andPortucale is here discussed. These sites are known from ancient literary sources or coins but their location is still open to debate. Short notes are added on Conimbriga in the 5th century and on tunnies which, accordingly to Polybius and Strabo, fed on acorns. Destas Notas de Arqueologia, Epigrafia e Toponímia, já publicámos dois fascículos, em núme- ros anteriores desta mesma revista, que agora acolhe o terceiro bloco de apontamentos. As nossas notas correspondem a revisões de pequenos (às vezes mínimos) problemas. Não trarão novos dados, mas diferentes interpretações de dados já conhecidos — ou novas deduções feitas a partir de dados que se não contestam. O que nos move não é o desejo de sermos diferentes (por vezes, diferentes de nós mesmos ou desdizentes do que anteriormente afirmámos). A nossa intenção é a de manter como problemáticos e necessitados de discussão certos “conhecimen- tos” que por vezes se dão como definitivamente adquiridos. Se é certo que a história (como conhecimento do que foi sucedido) se vai construindo também com dados e deduções indis- putáveis, muito do que dizemos (todos nós, arqueólogos e historiadores) não só é susceptível de acrescentos e aprofundamentos, como de revisões.

Endonyms and most exonyms for Poles and Poland derive from the name of the West Slavic tribe of the Polans (Polanie). ETYMOLOGY OF PORTUGAL The word Portugal derives from the Roman-Celtic place name Portus Cale. Cale was the name of an early settlement located at the mouth of the Douro River, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean in the north of what is now Portugal. Around 200 BC, the Romans took the Iberian Peninsula from the Carthaginians during the Second Punic War, and in the process conquered Cale and renamed it Portus Cale (Port of Cale). During the Dark Ages, the region around Portus Cale became known by the Suevi and Visigoths as Portucale. The name Portucale evolved into Portugale during the 7th and 8th centuries, and by the 9th century, that term was used extensively to refer to the region between the rivers Douro and Minho, the Minho flowing along what would become the northern border between Portugal and Spain.

  • The Crisis of the Kingdom of the Suebi
    The Crisis of the Kingdom of the Suebi Relations with the Visigoths and the Romans (456–468) GÁBOR SZÉLL In 456, not only did the Suebi suffer a crushing defeat from the Visigoth armies of Theoderic at the River Urbicus [Orbigo], but on top of that their king Rechi- arius died1 and as a result, before long, the Suevic Kingdom disintegrated both politically and territorially. Hydatius categorically writes about the collapse and destruction of the Suevic State, as he chronicles the gradual disintegration of royal power and its landing in the hands of several leaders.2 In the period following 456, attacks against the Romans increased, and momentary respite was only brought amid the plundering for the time of the Suevic leaders’ own power clashes, or when some of them struck a peace deal with the Romans.3 In the period between 456 and 468, we see, therefore, that the leaders of the Suevic Kingdom formed relations – or in other cases fought wars – either with the Visigoths or the Romans in order to strengthen their own positions. The death of Rechiarius probably meant the extinction of the Suevic royal branch founded by Hermeric, which forecast power struggles. A state of civil war ensued between the various factions of the Suebi, indicating a new era in 1 Széll G., “A hispaniai Szvév Királyság felemelkedése [The Rise of the Kingdom of the Suebi in Hispania] (409–456),” in Székely M. – Illés I.

  • Local Gifts Souvenirs and Corporate Gifts CERAMICS SARDINE
    Local Gifts Souvenirs and Corporate gifts CERAMICS SARDINE In June during the St Anthony (patron saint of Lisbon) festivities, the Portuguese capital goes sardine crazy. The Sardine collection by Bordallo Pinheiro, the ceramics Factory of Caldas da Rainha, founded in 1884 by Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro is a reflection of how the sardine has become an icon of the city. Every year Portuguese and foreign guest artists send illustrations, and the winners will be featured in the yearly collection. CERAMIC SARDINE Clip Holder Fun and colorful ceramic clip holder CERAMIC Swallow Bird In 1896, Rafael Bordallo Pinheiro registered the patent of his ceramic swallows, probably when realized that they could become a true Portuguese symbol. He was not mistaken, the artist’s flock of swallows began inhabiting the Portuguese homes, in the country as well as abroad, both inside and out. BARCELOs rooster IN CERAMICS The Rooster of Barcelos (Portuguese, "Galo de Barcelos") is one of the most common emblems of Portugal. The legend of the Rooster of Barcelos tells the story of a dead rooster's miraculous intervention in proving the innocence of a man who had been falsely accused and sentenced to death.
