  • Lisbon, Portugal
    John Morgenthaler [email protected] www.triplenickeltravel.com 772-777-1448 LISBON, PORTUGAL OVERVIEW Introduction The hodgepodge of historical periods and cultures represented in Lisbon, Portugal, is a major source of its charm and travel appeal. A sprawling city on the banks of the Tagus River, Lisbon constantly reminds travelers that Portugal has been conquered several times, that it developed (and lost) its own illustrious empire and that, for much of the 20th century, it isolated itself from the rest of the world. But when Portugal joined the European Union in 1986, it experienced a major economic boost. A completely new quarter sprang up on the banks of the Tagus. Lisbon is modernizing fast as a European travel destination. As visitors to Portugal walk Lisbon's hills—or, better, take one of Lisbon's vintage trams—they'll find restored medieval facades, wonderful art-nouveau buildings, black-and-white mosaic sidewalks (known as calcada), fine museums and plenty of modern shops. Lisbon's citizens seem to have absorbed their city's many-sided character. Visitors can witness the popularity of fado, the melancholy music that developed in Lisbon in the early-19th century. Though the performers sing about tragedy and distant glory, the audience is very much a part of modern Lisbon—a flourishing, fashionable business and leisure center. Sights—Torre de Belem; Mosteiro dos Jeronimos; Padrao dos Descobrimentos; Se Cathedral; Elevador de Santa Justa; the view from Castelo de Sao Jorge. Museums—Centro de Arte Moderna Jose de Azeredo Perdigao; Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga; Museu Calouste Gulbenkian; Museu Nacional dos Coches; Museu Nacional do Azulejo; Museu Berardo; Museu do Fado.

  • O Operariado E O Anarquismo Em Amanhã, De Abel Botelho
    O operariado e o anarquismo em Amanhã, de Abel Botelho António Martins Gomes CHC – FCSH [email protected] Resumo O romance Amanhã (1902), de Abel Botelho, tem como tema principal a intensificação da luta do operariado lisboeta, em finais do século XIX, e a sua ação decorre ao longo de sete meses, mais precisamente entre Novembro de1894 e Junho de 1895, o momento das celebrações religiosas levadas a efeito em Lisboa durante o sétimo centenário de Santo António. Amanhã é o romance de uma luta sindicalista e uma obra pioneira na focagem das míseras condições sociais do proletariado, no sentido em que Abel Botelho aborda a questão social no início da difusão da doutrina anarquista no operariado lisboeta, cujos princípios veiculam a dissolução do Estado e o combate a todas as formas de autoridade. Enriquecido pela vasta enumeração de acontecimentos históricos, este romance possui um grande e diversificado valor documental: a implantação do anarquismo no seio do operariado; o crescente recurso às greves; a visita de delegados da Associação Internacional dos Trabalhadores; o desfile de trabalhadores no 1º de Maio de 1895, ao longo dos Restauradores e da Avenida; a procissão comemorativa do centenário de Santo António, ocorrida precisamente a 29 de Junho; ou a preparação de um atentado bombista. O operariado e o anarquismo por António Martins Gomes 41 Palavras-chave Abel Botelho, Amanhã, Operariado Lisboeta, Luta Sindical Abstract The novel Tomorrow (1902), written by Abel Botelho, has the intensification of the struggle of the working class in the late nineteenth century Lisbon as its main theme, and the action takes place over seven months, more precisely from November 1894 to June 1895, a period of religious celebrations carried out in this city during the seventh centenary of Saint Anthony.
