Machado De Assis Magazine – Brazilian Literature in Translation Machado de Assis – Brazilian Literature in Translation is an initiative of Bra- zil’s National Library, in conjunction with Itaú Cultural, São Paulo State Offi- cial Press and the Ministry of External Relations. Our objective is to provide the international publishing industry with access to translated texts by Bra- zilian writers in an effort to boost their visibility abroad and foster the sale of foreign rights to their work. Each edition presents twenty new transla- tions. The magazine is one of several National Library initiatives designed to make Brazilian literature more widely known, such as translation grants, translator residencies in Brazil and support for publications in other Portu- guese-speaking countries. Machado de Assis – Literatura Brasileña en Traducción es una iniciativa de la Fundación Biblioteca Nacional, con la coedicion de Itaú Cultural, Prensa Oficial del Estado de São Paulo y Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Brasil. El objetivo de la revista es divulgar en el mercado editorial internacional MAGAZINE textos traducidos de autores brasileños. Cada edición presenta veinte nue- vas traducciones para acceso del público especializado, con el objetivo de colaborar con la visibilidad de comercialización internacional de derechos de publicación de escritores brasileños.

Central to this policy is the Translation Support Program, a respected initiative, under the auspices of the National Library’s Centre for Cooperation and Dissemination, whose aim is make Brazil’s literary output known internationally. Indeed, many consider the Program to be an effective propagator of Brazilian literary creation overseas. The solidification of the policy behind it is essential: it is not something occasional, associated with this or that opportunity to present our authors and books abroad. We are increasingly convinced that this policy must be permanent, a view shared by both the National Library and, decisively, the Ministry of Culture. More than promoting specific works and literary careers, contributing to their insertion in the international market, the main objective of the Program is to showcase Brazil’s literary imagination as an important part of the country’s cultural production. Brazilian modernist writer Mario de Andrade believed that one of the challenges faced by Brazilian literature was its need to combine the local and the universal. Although often built around local and regional references, there is no reason why this literary tradition shouldn’t aspire to the world stage. There is no reason why, in principle, literary expression should be relegated to the cocoon of localism. Who could have imagined that a fictional account of a day in the life of a Dubliner would go on to become one of the most important literary works of the 20th century? It would be almost unthinkable nowadays for someone to cite James Joyce’s Ulysses as an exponent of Dublin literature. It would be just as implausible for one to make such a claim about Hans Castorp and his cousin Joachim, drowning in the abyss of human drama in a Swiss sanatorium, in Thomas Mann’s The Magic Mountain. To a large extent, all literature is local. It originates somewhere and speaks a specific lan- guage. However, one of literature’s greatest feats is that it can make the local universal, some- thing that can be shared. How else to explain our enchantment when we read, for example, the story of Ítalo Svevo’s unhappy streetcar passengers, subject to incalculable setbacks, personal and local dramas, made universal by the author’s literary genius? Nothing could be more local than Riobaldo and Diadorim, in Guimarães Rosa’s Grande Sertão: Veredas, or the existential tension of Dalcídio Jurandir’s characters on Marajó Island in the brilliant Chove nos Campos de Cachoeira. All of these works, however, breathe the universe; that is, in them, language is a se- ductive force that not only connects the local to the universal, but fuses these two dimensions. It is what ensures the readability of all the works mentioned here, regardless of the cultural or linguistic circumstances of their readers. One of the things that make it possible for literary work to travel is the skill of its authors. Another is its multiplication in other languages, not by means of a miracle, but through the fundamental, civilizing work of a legion of translators. The aim of the Translation Support Program is to enable Brazilian literature to become part of an intangible heritage that belongs to all readers everywhere. The exploration of new markets, the promotion of authors abroad: these are, most definitely, worthwhile aims. But there is more: this is about helping a significant number of creators of written culture, profoundly Brazilian and local, to become “denationalized.” It is the same as saying, “go don other languages, reach faraway readers and belong to them too.” Renato Lessa President of the Brazilian National Library Foundation EL ESPACIO DE LA LITERATURA BRASILEÑA EN EL MUNDO a Revista Machado de Assis, producto de provechosa

    Alencar e seu projeto literário de construção nacional EDUARDO DIATAHY B. DE MENEZES Resumo Partindo da ideia de que o Brasil não dispõe de um poema épico, um romance nacional ou uma obra literária aceita como grande referência para a construção da nacionalidade, este ensaio enfatiza a deliberada missão intelectual que José de Alencar se atribuiu, de realizar o projeto literário da nação brasileira. Palavras-chave: Literatura Brasileira; José de Alencar; Construção da Nacionalidade. Alencar and his literary project of nation building Abstract Starting from the idea that Brazil does not have an epic poem, a national novel or a literary piece accepted as a great reference for the construction of nationality, this essay emphasizes the deliberate intellectual mission that José de Alencar attributed to himself EDUARDO DIATAHY B.

  • A Numismatic Legacy from Portugal's
    A NUMISMATIC LEGACY FROM PORTUGAL’S ‘WAR OF THE TWO BROTHERS’ John E. Sandrock As an avid paper money enthusiast I have always been intrigued by the little mysteries that sometimes show up. Such a baffling puzzle surfaced some years ago after I had acquired a group of early Portuguese currency dating from the late 1700s. These notes had all been overprinted with red sunbursts bearing the name of the king of Portugal. The difficulty was, that some notes were attributed to Pedro IV, and some to Miguel I. My desire to learn why this should be led me to the explanation, but not before I had probed into the discovery of a continent and learned something of the consequences of the Napoleonic War. These seemingly unrelated events eventually led me to the explanation and to my awareness of the War of the Two Brothers. Today Portugal is one of the smallest and least developed nations of Western Europe. There was a time, however, when Portugal played a far larger role in world history, one greatly disproportionate to its size. Those were the days of exploration when Portugal’s greatness reached the four corners of the earth. Such men as Prince Henry the Navigator, Bartholomeu Dias, Vasco da Gama and Pedro Cabral laid claim to vast lands in the name of Portugal. As colonization followed exploration, the small country was hard pressed to find sufficient administrators and colonists to maintain control of her far-flung possessions. Because she had an insufficient population base to maintain large armies and the necessary administrators in her newly found colonies, these lands gradually slipped away from Portuguese control, finding other political accommodations.

  • Between Renaissance and Counter-Reformation: Shaping the Historical Memory of D
    Hispania Sacra, LXXI 144, julio-diciembre 2019, 465-479, ISSN: 0018-215X, https://doi.org/10.3989/hs.2019.033 BETWEEN RENAISSANCE AND COUNTER-REFORMATION: SHAPING THE HISTORICAL MEMORY OF D. FRANCISCO COUTINHO, 3RD EARL OF REDONDO (1546-1564) POR 1 Nuno Vila-Santa 2 Portuguese Center for Global History – CHAM (FCSH-UNL-UAÇ) New University of Lisbon Abstract Portrayed as a brilliant Renaissance figure that combined success in the military with the love for knowledge, D. Francisco’s patronage is well-known. This article compares the post-mortem written memory of Coutinho with an evaluation of the offices he held: the captaincy of Arzila (1546-1549) and the viceroyalty of India (1561-1564). The household and stay of D. Francisco at Arzila are analysed, as well as his strategy for recovering the royal grace, marked by his appointments to governor of the “Casa da Suplicação” (1559) and the viceroyalty of India (1561). At the viceroyalty, D. Francisco faced great expectations. Comparing Coutinho’s policy with the orders he received it is possible to ascertain whether the expectations of his appointment were fulfi- lled. This article reflects on the relations between different identities within the Portuguese Empire while focusing in a case-study of the shaping of historical memory. Key words: Coutinho; house; North Africa; Court; “Estado da India”; historical memory. ENTRE EL RENACIMIENTO Y LA CONTRARREFORMA: CONFORMANDO LA MEMORIA HISTÓRICA DE D.

  • The Biology of Marine Mammals
    Romero, A. 2009. The Biology of Marine Mammals. The Biology of Marine Mammals Aldemaro Romero, Ph.D. Arkansas State University Jonesboro, AR 2009 2 INTRODUCTION Dear students, 3 Chapter 1 Introduction to Marine Mammals 1.1. Overture Humans have always been fascinated with marine mammals. These creatures have been the basis of mythical tales since Antiquity. For centuries naturalists classified them as fish. Today they are symbols of the environmental movement as well as the source of heated controversies: whether we are dealing with the clubbing pub seals in the Arctic or whaling by industrialized nations, marine mammals continue to be a hot issue in science, politics, economics, and ethics. But if we want to better understand these issues, we need to learn more about marine mammal biology. The problem is that, despite increased research efforts, only in the last two decades we have made significant progress in learning about these creatures. And yet, that knowledge is largely limited to a handful of species because they are either relatively easy to observe in nature or because they can be studied in captivity. Still, because of television documentaries, ‘coffee-table’ books, displays in many aquaria around the world, and a growing whale and dolphin watching industry, people believe that they have a certain familiarity with many species of marine mammals (for more on the relationship between humans and marine mammals such as whales, see Ellis 1991, Forestell 2002). As late as 2002, a new species of beaked whale was being reported (Delbout et al. 2002), in 2003 a new species of baleen whale was described (Wada et al.

    235 e-scrita ISSN 2177-6288 V. 5 – 2014.1 –GONÇALVES, Sandra M. Godinho JOSÉ DE ALENCAR E MACHADO DE ASSIS, UMA PERSPECTIVA SOCIOLÓGICA OITOCENTISTA NA VISÃO DE ROBERTO SCHWARZ Sandra Maria Godinho Gonçalves1 RESUMO: Este artigo discute a tese de doutorado de Roberto Schwarz sobre a perspectiva sociológica do Brasil no período oitocentista, na qual, o trabalho era baseado no escravo, com latifundiários e uma burguesia ainda insípida.Todavia, a classe intelectual brasileira era influenciada pelas ideias iluministas trazidas pela Revolução Francesa e pela rapidez das mudanças acarretadas pela revolução industrial inglesa. Roberto Schwarz salienta a obra de Machado de Assis, Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas, na qual ele utiliza personagens como Eugênia, Marcela e D. Plácida para ilustrar o paternalismo e a troca de favores reinante na época. Eugênia e Marcela são criações originárias do precursor de Machado, José de Alencar, que foi o pioneiro a dissecar a ideologia da elite dominante da época oitocentista brasileira, Palavras-chave: Machado de Assis; paternalismo; elite; oitocentista; iluministas. ABSTRACT: This article discusses Roberto Schwarz’s PhD’s thesis on the sociological perspective of Brazil in the nineteenth century, in which, the work was slave-based, with large landowners and a still- insipid bourgeoisie. However, the Brazilian intellectual class was influenced by the illuminist ideas brought by the French Revolution, and the rapidity of changes which the English Industrial Revolution entailed. Roberto Schwarz highlights the work of Machado de Assis, Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas, (Posthumous Memories of Brás Cubas) in which characters such as Eugenia, Marcela and Mrs. Plácida are used to illustrate the paternalism in exchange for favors that reigned at the time.

BIBLIOGRAFIA Alencar foi jornalista, político, orador, romancista, crítico, cronista, polemista e teatrólogo brasileiro. Podemos classificar seus romances em 3 grandes grupos: I - Romances urbanos: Cinco minutos (1857); A viuvinha (1860); Lucíola (1862); Diva (1864); A pata da gazela (1870); Sonhos d’ouro (1872); Senhora (1875); Encarnação (1893, póstumo).

RESENHA É a obra-prima e de síntese do sertão romântico e tranqüilo, onde a paz e a felicidade se dão as mãos para que tanto o senhor como o servo se sintam felizes. Nesta obra, o sertão se revelou em todo o seu esplendor paradisíaco. A fazenda Oitícia tornou-se o símbolo do lugar edênico dos trópicos onde, no quadro tradicionalista da família do capitão-mor, seus agregados e servos, florescem os amores de D. Flor e Arnaldo. Tudo ali é formosura, pureza de intenções, susto e rubores de gente ingênua e simples.
