  • A Revolta Mendes Norton De 1935
    A REVOLTA MENDES NORTON DE 1935 LUÍS MIGUEL PULIDO GARCIA CARDOSO DE MENEZES INTRODUÇÃO Manuel Peixoto Martins Mendes Norton (1875-1967), natural de Via- na do Castelo, teve um percurso militar - profissional brilhante, com provas dadas. Foi o caso da organização do serviço de socorro ao nau- frágio do paquete inglês “Veronese” (1913); o grande impulso que deu à obra de farolagem, deixando a costa portuguesa de chamar-se a “costa negra” (1918-1929); a participação e colaboração na revolta monárquica de Monsanto (1919) e na revolução de 28-5-1926; a organização da Con- ferência Internacional de Farolagem em Lisboa (1930), etc. etc. Activista político empenhado, foi o principal chefe operacional das revoltas de 20-5-1935 e da revolta «Mendes Norton» de 10-9-1935, esta última considerada por Medeiros Ferreira, uma das mais importantes revoltas militares entre 1933-1961, que ousaram agitar o Estado Novo. Foi também, uma das figuras de maior relevo do governo dos ge- nerais António Óscar Fragoso Carmona-Sinel Cordes (de 9-7-1926 a 18-4-1928), e a este propósito George Guyomard, considerava Mendes Norton, então Capitão de Fragata, um dos quatro homens que deti- nham o verdadeiro poder político em Portugal. Até 1934, Mendes Norton está com o regime, tendo aliás sido amiúde nomeado para diversos cargos e comissões de serviço; a partir de então e à medida que se acentua o autoritarismo politico, demarca-se da situação e revela-se um opositor feroz ao regime de Oliveira Salazar, tendo sido consequentemente exonerado dos inúmeros cargos e comissões que deti- nha, bem como lhe foi negado o requerimento em que pedia para fazer o tirocínio para o posto de Contra-Almirante.

    Título da comunicação: Dois arquivos científicos existentes na Casa Reynaldo dos Santos Irene Quilhó dos Santos, Município de Cascais. Resumo: Pretende-se, com esta comunicação, dar a conhecer dois Arquivos Científicos que integram a Casa Reynaldo dos Santos Irene Quilhó dos Santos, na Parede, doada por Irene Quilhó ao Município de Cascais. O Arquivo pessoal do Prof. Reynaldo dos Santos reveste-se de grande importância para a história da medicina em Portugal, nomeadamente no que toca à Urologia e Arteriografia, à reestruturação dos serviços médicos e hospitalares e ao ensino da medicina em Portugal. Os seus apontamentos de trabalho, aliados às fichas de doentes, a correspondência com outros cientistas nacionais e internacionais, complementam a área clínica e docente, revestindo este espólio de importante valor para a compreensão e contextualização da medicina e da vida social e cultural na primeira metade do século XX português. Reynaldo dos Santos, 1880-1970, após a licenciatura em medicina estagiou em Paris em 1903 e, em 1905, fez um périplo nos EUA onde visitou clínicas em Boston, Chicago, Rochester, Baltimore, Filadélfia e Nova Iorque e criou laços de amizade com Alexis Carrel, Harvey Cushing, Rudolph Matas, entre outros. Concluiu o doutoramento em 1906 e iniciou a docência na Faculdade de Medicina de Lisboa. Em 1910 preparou um Curso Livre de Urologia no Hospital do Desterro, onde introduziu a urorritmografia. Nos vários estágios realizados entre 1909 e 1914, passou por Berlim, Kummel, Veneza, Viena de Áustria, Londres, Hamburgo, Bremen, Bona e Bruxelas, países que mais tarde o homenagearam com as mais altas condecorações. Pertenceu ao CEP (Corpo Expedicionário Português) na 1ª Grande Guerra onde desempenhou missões do Governo junto dos exércitos aliados, foi membro do Comité Interaliado para o estudo da Cirurgia de Guerra e consultor de cirurgia do CEP.

  • The Engine of the Republic: the Presidential Cars PRESENTATION
    The Engine of the Republic: The Presidential Cars PRESENTATION The museum collection The Engine of the Republic – The Presidential Cars came about as a result of a challenge issued by the Museum of Transport and Communications to the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic. The challenge, which was immediately accepted, was to create a permanent exhibit that would make it possible for the public to visit, assembled and preserved, one of the most important collections of cars in the country: those that have been in the service of its presidents since the founding of the Republic, over 100 years ago. This collection also reflects an awareness that the vehicles exhibited here are part of a historical heritage. As such, they are no longer disposed of once decommissioned, but become part of the collection of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic. The job of recording, locating and recovering the cars that were used by the presidents of the Republic, an ongoing task, has been a priority of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic practically since its inception, as already demonstrated by a group of temporary exhibitions: beginning in 2004, to coincide with the opening of the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic, and continuing over the course of subsequent years, in Porto, Lisbon, Figueira da Foz and Guimarães. Siting this collection in Porto also contributes to the Museum of the Presidency of the Republic’s aim of decentralising its activity, bringing part of its collection to the north of the country, a region with a great tradition of car collecting.

Scenographic Interventions in Portuguese Romantic Architecture ABSTRACT When Kant established the noumenon1 as the limit of knowledge in his Critique of Judgment, he set off a reaction among the most distinguished philosophers of the infinite: Fischte, Schilling, and Hegel. This consciousness of the infinite and its analysis through the feeling of the sublime was the basis of all European Romanticism, as well as of the artistic currents that flowed from it. Although the theme of the sublime has been studied since Longinus, it was Hegel who extended the concept through the analysis of space and time in his The Philosophy of Nature, because nature as de-termination2 of the idea necessarily falls in space and time.3 Consequently, the artistic achievement of that era could only be a figurative representation of the sublime and the integration of all arts in a whole with the purpose of awakening the feeling of Gesamtkunstwerk.

The Postilla was one of the most frequently copied texts during the later Middle Ages and Renaissance in Western and Central Europe, as evidenced by the approximately seven hundred extant manuscripts. The Postilla’s astounding popularity is often attributed to its thorough treatment of a fundamental issue in Christian thought: how to validate the authority and utility of Jewish exegetical traditions while asserting the truth of Christianity.
