Senhor Almirante Chefe do Estado-Maior da Armada; Senhores Membros do Conselho Académico; Senhores Almirantes; Senhor Presidente da Academia de Engenharia; Senhor Presidente da Comissão Portuguesa de História Militar; Senhora representante da Presidente da Academia Portuguesa da História; Senhor Presidente da Direcção Central da Liga dos Combatentes; Senhores Membros da Academia de Marinha e distintos Convidados; Minhas Senhoras e Meus Senhores, É meu dever de gratidão dar as boas vindas à Academia de Marinha ao Senhor Almirante Chefe do Estado-Maior da Armada e agradecer-lhe a disponibilidade para presidir a esta cerimónia de tomada de posse do Presidente e dos detentores dos demais cargos estatutários, conferindo, assim, especial relevância e dignidade a este acto de alcance trienal. Muito honrado estou, igualmente, pela presença dos senhores presidentes das aca- demias, num gesto de nobre amizade para com a Academia de Marinha, e também, se me é permitida a interpretação, de consonância no propósito de valorizar tudo o que diga respeito ao Mar Português. Grato fico também pela vinda até à Academia, em horário não usual, das senhoras e dos senhores Académicos que quiseram, com a sua presença, conferir identidade ao voto anónimo e dar-lhe ainda mais força. Dou ainda as boas-vindas às Senhoras e Senhores convidados e transmito-lhes a mensagem de que serão sempre recebidos com gosto em qualquer das nossas sessões culturais ou em quaisquer outras actividades. Cumprida gostosamente esta formalidade protocolar, constitui minha obrigação reiterar, publicamente, o meu compromisso de cumprir com todo o empenho, a hon- rosa missão que acabo de assumir e que, como aqui disse há três anos, é mais uma forma de servir o País, a Marinha e o mar que com ambos se identifica e funde. Para um velho marinheiro, trata-se de um privilégio poder exercer tais funções e, por isso, testemunho XI NUNO VIEIRA MatiaS a minha gratidão à Assembleia dos Académicos por ter elegido, sem qualquer voto con- tra, a lista proposta para os Cargos Estatutários. Bem hajam todos, incluindo o único que se absteve. Contudo, a mensagem mais significativa que gostaria de transmitir aqui hoje, apro- veitando até a solenidade da sessão para lhe dar especial realce, tem uma expressão dupla e dirige-se à Senhora e aos Senhores Membros do Conselho Académico. Na verdade, devo testemunhar-lhes os meus profundos agradecimentos pelo elevado sentido de ser- viço que demonstraram ao aceitarem integrar a lista agora eleita e, assim, servirem a Academia durante mais um mandato. Trata-se de um reconhecimento que, na verdade, tem ainda uma outra componente que me compete traduzir na forma de público louvor à Senhora Professora Raquel Soeiro de Brito e ao Senhor Professor Contente Domingues, Presidentes das Classes de Artes, Letras e Ciências e de História Marítima, respectiva- mente, ao Senhor Secretário-Geral, Comandante Beça Gil, e aos Senhores Secretários das Classes, Comandante Malhão Pereira e Dr.

The border of the sawn cultivated land had been pushed westwards under the pressure of the nomadic tribes from the east. Several reasons are suggested for this decline, including maladministration and the taxation policies of the Ottoman Empire. Some of the regions south of Ajlun, including Amman area, and along the escarpment of the Jordan valley were almost completely abandoned. Recovery starts during the last quarter of the 19th century. 1860 Italy Cities And Urban Spaces The unification of Italy leads to urban expansion outside the old city walls, which have lost their defensive value.

    UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS CENTRO DE ESTUDOS COMPARATISTAS WHAT ABOUT THE ROGUE ? SURVIVAL AND METAMORPHOSIS IN CONTEMPORARY BRITISH LITERATURE Ana Raquel Lourenço Fernandes DOUTORAMENTO EM ESTUDOS LITERÁRIOS (Literatura Comparada) 2008 UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS CENTRO DE ESTUDOS COMPARATISTAS WHAT ABOUT THE ROGUE ? SURVIVAL AND METAMORPHOSIS IN CONTEMPORARY BRITISH LITERATURE Ana Raquel Lourenço Fernandes Orientação: Professora Doutora Isabel Maria da Cunha Rosa Fernandes DOUTORAMENTO EM ESTUDOS LITERÁRIOS (Literatura Comparada) 2008 Abstract What about the Rogue? Survival and Metamorphosis in Contemporary British Literature The present dissertation aims at giving an account of the significance of the rogue in contemporary British literature, focusing on this character’s survival and metamorphosis particularly from the second half of the 20th century onwards. The thesis is divided into five sections, comprising three main chapters. The opening section is a general introduction showing the main steps in my approach to the subject under discussion and the attending methodology. In the first chapter I deal with the origins of the literature of roguery and the development of the rogue. Starting with the analysis of six previously selected novels, the second chapter studies the revival of the rogue mainly in the 1950s, adopting a comparative perspective. For this purpose I analyse and contextualise the following works: Joyce Cary’s The Horse’s Mouth (1944) and Iris Murdoch’s Under the Net (1954); John Wain’s Hurry on Down (1953), Kingsley Amis’s Lucky Jim (1954), John Braine’s Room at the Top (1957) and Allan Sillitoe’s Saturday Night and Sunday Morning (1958). This section closes with an analysis of the transformations undergone by Bill Naughton’s radio play, Alfie Elkins and His Little Life (1962), making manifest the multiple possibilities inherent in a character such as the rogue.

  • Planning the Portuguese “Riviera”. the Expectations of the Touristic-Urbanistic Developments of “Costa Do Sol”: Lisbon-Cascais
    Planning the portuguese “Riviera”. The expectations of the touristic-urbanistic developments of “Costa do Sol”: Lisbon-Cascais Carlos Henriques Ferreira Faculty of Architecture, Technical University of Lisbon (FAUTL), Research Centre of Architecture, Urbanism and Design (CIAUD) [email protected] Abstract New paradigms of leisure began to assert themselves in Europe, throughout the nineteenth century, highlighting the importance of new territorial dynamics associated with the fluxes of vacation areas (vilegiature). In parallel with spas, a “bathing cult” in the beach, combined with gambling, gained prominence. The French Riviera served as a reference for new coastal tourism developments in Southern Europe. The Lisbon Coast, especially the western part, is one of the major milestones in the Portuguese tourism genealogy and it should be referenced in this cultural context, stating the importance of the international tourist resorts such as Estoril and Cascais. Through the consulted sources, the reference as “Riviera Portuguesa” is noted for this coast, mainly from the beginning of the twentieth century. The Lisbon-Cascais coastline subject to successive urban interventions, focused on the recovery and tourist development idea, represents a legacy of great importance, considering the relationship between tourism and urban planning. Keywords: Tourism, Urbanism, Evasion Architectures, Costa do Sol, Lisbon-Cascais The Portuguese Riviera as a Touristic Legacy The meaning of the word Tourism has changed throughout time, being successively enriched with the exploration of new social practices connected to leisure and a progressive expansion to other social classes. The Grand Tour of the XVIII century, referenced by the English elites (Boyer, 2000) and considered the genesis of contemporary expression of tourism, expanded its scope, integrating the new social practices, where it should be highlighted the growing importance of ritual baths in spas and afterwards in the sea.
