Cabildo 2Da Época. 107- Diciembre De 1986.Pdf F r "N Del Matrimonio Civil al Divorcio mr* L matrimonio civil nace en la Revolución Francesa... según la doctrina del Pacto Social el estado de sociedad es un esta- do permanentemente adventicio. Fuera de la sociedad el hombre es un ser absoluto, soberano, dueño de sí mismo, sin más reglas que aquellas que voluntariamente acepte, sin límite algu- no, ni para seguir las impresiones de su razón, ni para seguir los impulsos apasionados de su naturaleza. Si se constituye en so- ciedad lo hace voluntariamente, por eso Diderot dice que el "matrimonioperpetuo es un abuso"y "una tiranía "... Y el Matrimonio Civil, realización legal de aquellos puntos de doctrina fue seguido de instituciones en que tomaron forma los apotegmas impuros de los sofistas más desenfrenados... Es el divorcio, en efecto, consecuencia necesaria del Matrimo- nio Civil. No se puede suscribir un contrato civil que sea perpe- tuo, que no sea revocable. Por eso atenta contra la estabilidad del Matrimonio y.deja la familia expuesta a todas las contingencias nacidas de la mutabilidad de las leyes... son leyes que placen a las mayorías parlamentarias... Para que la institución de la Familia sea sólida es menester que tenga fundamentos inconmovibles como la naturaleza de la cual emana, eternos como Dios que la preside y la legisla; pero cuando todo está expuesto a las interpretaciones caprichosas de los par- tidos y de las asambleas populares, todo es cambiante como fun- dado sobre la arena...

  • The Louisiana Purchase
    The Louisiana Purchase In 1803, the United States bought the Louisiana Territory from France, which was in dire straits following their revolution. On the Lewis and Clark site, there is this map of the Louisiana Purchase. As you can see, there was a great deal more of what is now the United States that was not settled. Look at Spanish Florida, New Spain, Oregon Country and British North America. The North West had been the habitat of fur traders, mostly from the British Isles, for many years. Meanwhile, in the South, there was the desire to expel the Spanish from Florida. As American expansionism moved the boundaries further west and south, the British pushed back. Greatness of the Port of New Orleans dates back to the Revolution when the Ohio River Valley was settled, and the settlers had no other way to market their produce then down the river to New Orleans – then a Spanish Port. First they came on rafts then flatboats, and, finally keelboats which could be poled back up the river. (Rafts and flatboats were broken up and the timber sold.) In the early years of this river traffic, tough American boatmen had many a argument with Spanish troops of New Orleans. Here we see Governor Milo halting once such argument. Miro hoped to persuade Tennessee and Kentucky to secede from the United States and join Spanish Louisiana. Instead, the valleyfolks brought such pressure on President Thomas Jefferson that the Louisiana Purchase resulted. An indication of the volume of this early trade between the Americans and the Spaniards at New Orleans is the American dollar.

  • Architecture of the Cabildo
    Architecture of the Cabildo The Cabildo in New Orleans is one of the most historically significant buildings in Louisiana. It was the seat of Spanish colonial government, the site of the Louisiana Purchase transfer ceremony, and home of the Louisiana Supreme Court. It is now part of the Louisiana State Museum. Learn more about the architectural features of this iconic building! Architecture The Cabildo was built 1794-1799 under Spanish rule. It was designed by Gilberto Guillemard in the classical style, which is modelled on the architecture of ancient Greece and Rome. This style was common for eighteenth-century Spanish government buildings and has been used throughout history to convey power and wealth. The wrought-iron balcony railings were created by Marcelino Hernandez, an immigrant from the Canary Islands. The Spanish coat of arms in the pediment was replaced with a patriotic sculpture of an American bald eagle in 1821, a few years after Louisiana became a state, sculpted by Italian artist Pietro Cardelli. In 1847, a third floor with a mansard roof and cupola replaced the original flat roof. This popular French roof style was added in part to match the planned scale of the Pontalba apartment buildings on Jackson Square, which were begun in 1849. These features form an impressive façade that reflect changing influences in New Orleans over time.

  • A Medley of Cultures: Louisiana History at the Cabildo
    A Medley of Cultures: Louisiana History at the Cabildo Chapter 1 Introduction This book is the result of research conducted for an exhibition on Louisiana history prepared by the Louisiana State Museum and presented within the walls of the historic Spanish Cabildo, constructed in the 1790s. All the words written for the exhibition script would not fit on those walls, however, so these pages augment that text. The exhibition presents a chronological and thematic view of Louisiana history from early contact between American Indians and Europeans through the era of Reconstruction. One of the main themes is the long history of ethnic and racial diversity that shaped Louisiana. Thus, the exhibition—and this book—are heavily social and economic, rather than political, in their subject matter. They incorporate the findings of the "new" social history to examine the everyday lives of "common folk" rather than concentrate solely upon the historical markers of "great white men." In this work I chose a topical, rather than a chronological, approach to Louisiana's history. Each chapter focuses on a particular subject such as recreation and leisure, disease and death, ethnicity and race, or education. In addition, individual chapters look at three major events in Louisiana history: the Battle of New Orleans, the Civil War, and Reconstruction. Organization by topic allows the reader to peruse the entire work or look in depth only at subjects of special interest. For readers interested in learning even more about a particular topic, a list of additional readings follows each chapter. Before we journey into the social and economic past of Louisiana, let us look briefly at the state's political history.

Con el tiempo, las funciones y capacidades de estos concejos fueron aumentando, lo que provocó que se erigie- sen como importantes centros de producción y acumulación de material escrito, y que, por tanto, el documento municipal se convirtiese en uno de los instrumentos empleados por las clases dirigentes para ejercer su poder sobre la sociedad urba- na2. Este mismo sistema político local fue el que se trasplantó a las Indias tras su descubrimiento, con la implantación de los cabildos, de los que formaban parte las oligarquías socioeconómicas de cada municipio3. En el caso americano, la impor- tancia que el documento escrito cobró dentro de la institución municipal fue aún mayor, debido a las enormes distancias que separaban a las colonias de la Metró- poli, que fomentaron el recurso a la escritura como único medio para relacionarse con las instancias del gobierno, al mismo tiempo que permitieron a los cabildos alcanzar unas cuotas de poder que habrían sido inconcebibles en la Península4.

    People and Power at the Cabildo The Cabildo: A History of People and Power in Louisiana – Post-video Activity Watch the video at: https://youtu.be/3ul_PT0lcho Readings, Research Prompt, and Discussion Questions Objective: Students will learn the different ways that groups and individuals attempted to challenge laws or government power at the Cabildo in New Orleans. Through research and discussion, students will discover how people participate in similar types of civic engagement and social action today and will consider which methods they might use to engage with issues of importance to them. Louisiana Student Standard for Social Studies: 7.1.1, 7.4.3, 7.10.2, 8.1.1, 8.2.6, 8.8.1, 8.8.2, C.5.2, C.5.3 Introduction A government building has stood on the site of the Cabildo for nearly three hundred years. In the past, it was a place where the local government made and enforced laws. It was also a place where residents challenged those laws. Many types of civic engagement, activism, and public demonstrations took place at the Cabildo or in the Place d’Armes, now known as Jackson Square. Residents used different methods to make their voices heard in the political process. For example, they wrote letters to the French Superior Council or Cabildo (Spanish town council), voted for city council members, or brought cases to court. Other times, residents gathered in protest, practiced civil disobedience, or used violence in attempts to influence the government. Groups often combined many different strategies to express their desires and beliefs to government officials.

  • Native Persistence: Marriage, Social Structure, Political Leadership, and Intertribal Relations at Mission Dolores, 1777–1800
    Journal of California and Great Basin Anthropology | Vol. 35, No. 1 (2015) | pp. 133–149 Native Persistence: Marriage, Social Structure, Political Leadership, and Intertribal Relations at Mission Dolores, 1777–1800 JONATHAN F. CORDERO Department of Sociology, California Lutheran University, 60 West Olsen Road, Thousand Oaks, CA 91360 Scholarship on California Indians prior to and during the Spanish colonial period suffers from a lack of understanding of the social structure of California Indians, especially in regards to social status. In this systematic analysis of the social structure of California Indians, I examine the relationships among marriage, social status, political leadership, and intertribal alliances during colonization. After incorporation into Mission Dolores, Spanish alterations to native life, such as Catholic marriage restrictions and the Spanish caste system, had only a minor impact upon native social structure. Indian elites continued to marry other elites and thereby preserved traditional status distinctions, political authority, and intertribal alliances after incorporation into Mission Dolores. As a result, California Indians at Mission Dolores maintained social and political continuity during Spanish colonization. n 27 December 1778, Felipe de Neve, by arranged marriages between children of tribal elites.4 Othe Governor of Alta California, wrote to the Positions of political leadership and influence in tribal missionaries at the first five missions and requested matters derived from the social status of the male that they proceed with the process of electing Indian head of the family, which was then conferred to family officials in accordance with the Laws of the Indies members. Marriages among children from high status (Geiger 1959:244).1 The request coincided with the families preserved intertribal alliances and thereby ongoing establishment of Indian pueblos,2 an integral fostered political solidarity.
