Estas mudanças relacionam-se de perto com a evolução sociológica portuguesa e com o caminho do país rumo ao desenvolvimento e à vanguarda civilizacional. Neste artigo será abordada a evolução do grupo de pessoas que em Portugal se dedicam à prática da actividade arqueológica, durante todo o século XX e até à actualidade. Quantos são, quem são, qual a sua formação aca- démica, distribuição etária e de género, origem geográfica e forma de exercício da actividade (do amadorismo à profissionalização) serão alguns dos aspectos abordados. Palavras-chave: Arqueólogos, Arqueologia profissional, História da Arqueologia.

  • 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.

  • SUBMISSION GUIDELINES in Effect Beginning with Issue 14.3 and New Submissions from December 1, 2020
    GENOCIDE STUDIES AND PREVENTION SUBMISSION GUIDELINES In effect beginning with Issue 14.3 and new submissions from December 1, 2020 Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal (GSP) publishes empirical and theoretical work that deals with collective violence – with a focus on genocides. It promotes the scholarly discussion of concepts and cases that address the causes, occurrences, consequences, and the prevention and punishment of such violence. This peer-reviewed journal publishes articles on the latest developments in research, theory, and policy from various disciplines and fields including anthropology, criminology, education, gender studies, history, law, literature, philosophy, political science, psychology, religious studies, social theory, sociology, and visual culture. GSP features full research articles, (legal) case studies, field notes, state of the field articles, art pieces and literary works, translations of important documents from languages other than English, as well book and art reviews. Lemkin and the Genocide Convention: GSP is a journal specializing in the subject of genocide studies. It is, therefore, assumed that authors and readers have knowledge of the basic facts of the history of Raphaël Lemkin and his creation of the word genocide, as well as the Genocide Convention and its definition of genocide. Therefore, we request that authors DO NOT include an outline of such facts in their article. This does not preclude authors from discussing more detailed aspects of Lemkin or the Genocide Convention, nor from including their own interpretation of the definition of genocide. GSP conforms to the Chicago Manual of Style, specifically the 17th edition. For questions not answered here, please consult the Chicago Manual of Style, a quick citations guide can be found here.

  • University of Jyväskylä the Characteristic Lexical
    UNIVERSITY OF JYVÄSKYLÄ THE CHARACTERISTIC LEXICAL FEATURES OF STANDARD SRI LANKAN ENGLISH A Pro Gradu Thesis in English by Mirka Vuorivirta Department of Languages 2006 2 HUMANISTINEN TIEDEKUNTA KIELTEN LAITOS Mirka Vuorivirta THE CHARACTERISTIC LEXICAL FEATURES OF STANDARD SRI LANKAN ENGLISH Pro Gradu – tutkielma Englannin kieli Heinäkuu 2006 103 sivua + liite Englannin kieli on vuosien saatossa levinnyt ympäri maailmaa ja tänä päivänä sitä käytetään joka mantereella. Englannin kieli itsessään ei kuitenkaan ole pysynyt samana, vaan sen kielioppi, sanasto ja ääntämys ovat muovautuneet paikallisten kielikontaktien ja kulttuurin/kulttuurien mukaan. Tänä päivänä useat tutkijat puhuvatkin englanneista monikossa, sen sijaan, että puhuttaisiin yhdestä englannin kielestä. Englannin kieliä, joita käytetään vanhoissa siirtomaissa, erityisesti Aasiassa, Afrikassa, Karibianmerellä ja Uudessa Seelannissa, kutsutaan nimellä Uudet englannit. Uudet englannit ovat kehittyneet kontakteista paikallisten kielien kanssa. Englannin kielen on täytynyt muovautua uuteen ympäristöön ja kulttuuriin omaksumalla sanastoa paikallisilta kieliltä ja keksimällä uusia sanoja oudoille käsitteille, joita englannin kieli ei tunne. Täten jokainen Uusi englanti on sanastollisesti, kieliopillisesti ja ääntämyksellisesti hieman toisistaan poikkeava. Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää Sri Lankan englannin sanastollisia erityispiirteitä. Toisin sanoen, millaisia sanoja käytetään Sri Lankan englannissa, joita ei esiinny muissa englannin varianteissa, ainakaan britti- ja amerikanenglanneissa.
