The aim of the tour was to give a presentation of the magic place that the group were about to live in, the Island of Santa Catarina. We went to many interesting spots on the island, such as: • Morro das Pedras (right) • Campeche Beach • Lagoa da Conceição Downtown Morro das Pedras/Photo Credit: Telli Narcizo • Avenue das Rendeiras, with a picnic on the grass consisting of some typical Brazilian snacks or salgadinhos , from where we could enjoy a lovely view of the lagoon • Joaquina Beach, where we swam and hiked along the rocks adjacent to the beach • The famous Jurerê Internacional Beach (right), where we rounded off the day’s event with another picnic and more fun at the beach. By this time an initially cloudy day had turned into a beautiful sunny one! During the bus ride, some Brazilians talked Jurerê Internacional/Photo Credit: Telli Narcizo about their favorite places on the island, and when passing by a point of interest, they made commentaries about the history and curiosities about that place. FEBRUARY Saturday 2 nd - FIELD TRIP TO LAGUNA For this field trip USAC Staff, guests and students gathered at UFSC to take a bus to Laguna. Laguna is a historic city with beautiful natural scenery. The 3rd oldest city of the state, founded in 1676, it has a historic district with 600 historic buildings. The city is known as the birthplace of Anita Garibaldi, a Brazilian independence fighter and wife of Giuseppe Garibaldi, and for being one of the cities crossed by the “Treaty of Tordesillas” line. In the first part of the day we visited: • The historical center. • Anita Garibaldi’s museum. • Water fountains build by the slaves in the 1800s. In the afternoon we drove up to a religious monument offering stunning views of the city and surrounding area, and finished the trip with a walk along the beach. Water fountain , Laguna Historical Center Saturday 16 th - FIELD TRIP TO PORTO BELO/ BOMBINHAS For this field trip USAC Staff, guests and students gathered at Centro de Cultura e Eventos at 9:00AM and took the bus from Florianópolis to Porto Belo, an hour’s journey north of the island. There they boarded a thematic “Safari” bus with a guide to take them to the main sites of interest in Porto Belo and Bombinhas, known as the most ecological area in the state and famous for its snorkelling. The bus stopped for some views from the top of the surrounding hills, so the students could take pictures and look at the natural reservation surrounding the city. The tour took the group to 4 different beaches, Bombas beach, Bombinhas beach, Cardoso beach and Sepultura beach. The water on this peninsula is extremely clear, because it is naturally cleaned every 10 minutes, making it one of the best places to dive in Brazil. The tour also took the group to some local shrimp farms and to a typical seafood restaurant where everyone had a hearty lunch to end the first part of the trip. In the afternoon the group walked to another beach, and from there boarded a big schooner, where the tour guide showed us around the peninsula. On board ship the group started dancing to some Brazilian hits and fresh fruit was served inside the boat. The schooner ride ended with some snorkeling off Sepultura beach, with great fun among the group. Afterwards we stayed at the beach before returning to Florianópolis before sunset. Snorkeling Safari Bus Saturday 23 rd - EXCURSION TO NAUFRAGADOS “Shipwrecked Beach” has an aura of mystery because of the historical events in this isolated part of the island. The principal incident, which ended up giving name to the area, was the sinking of two sea vessels used by the Portuguese, off the beach in 1753. Following an edict by the Portuguese Court, about 250 Azorean settlers had traveled to Rio Grande do Sul when the accident occurred at the place now called Ponta dos Photo Credit: Melissa Molina Naufragados. Only 77 settlers escaped, some of whom remained on the island and others went to Laguna and Rio Grande do Sul. For this excursion, Renato and John met the students at UFSC campus at 8:00AM. They all headed together to the south of the island, passing through the neighborhoods of Rio Tavares and Ribeirão da Ilha until they got to the beginning of the trail at the extreme south of the island. From there they hiked for 50 minutes until reaching the Beach. On the beach they played cricket, swam and had a typical Brazilian lunch in a very picturesque venue overlooking the sea. Beach sports/Photo Credit: Melissa Molina MARCH Friday 1 st – FUN DAY TO MARK THE END OF THE INTENSIVE PERIOD The team at USAC held this event for the staff, professors and students to commemorate the end of the period of intensive Portuguese courses and the beginning of the upper level ones. The event took place in the events room of the building where Aline’s parents reside, in Ingleses, a beach neighorhood in the north of the island. A large amount of typical Brazilian barbeque food was prepared for the occasion. The “churrasqueiro”, or chef, was Aline’s father while Aline’s mother prepared the side dishes. For drinks lots of “guaraná” soda and juices were served to deal with the very hot weather. Throughout the day the USAC team organized several activities, including a trip to the nearby beach, and many different sports were played, including soccer, ping-pong, tennis, racquetball, rugby and cricket. The event began at lunchtime and lasted until evening. Reflections on the 1 st part of the semester Students enjoying the barbeque Saturday 2 nd - HIKE TO LAGOINHA DO LESTE For this event, Renato met the students at UFSC campus at 10:00AM. From there they took a bus for for the Armação Beach, where there is a small bridge and path across Matadeiro Beach, where the trail to Lagoinha do Leste starts. This is a 3-hour hike for all standards offering beautiful views of the surrounding beaches. The only access to the beach is via the trail, making Lagoinha do Leste a particularly tranquil place that seems far from civilization. Once there it is possible to swim in the lagoon. The lagoon is very shallow and we organized a game of volleyball inside it. The students spent about 2 hours there, and then before the sun went down they headed to the back trail that took them back to the city but this time via Pântano do Sul beach.

The meeting took place as part of a week-long seminar on the internationalization of the university, and was hosted by Prof. Luiz Carlos Pinheiro Machado Filho, the head of International Relations at the University. The RD, staff and students met some other UFSC university authorities such as Lauro Mattei, vice-president of Students Affairs (PRAE); Joana Pedro, Vice-President of Undergraduate Studies (PROPG); Rogério Luiz de Souza, vice- president of Graduate Programs (PROGRAD); Jamil Assereuy, vice-president of Research (PROPESQ); and Paulo Berton, Secretary of Culture (SECULT). After the meeting everyone was able to enjoy a Brazilian coffee break and have a personal chat with our hosts. USAC Group & UFSC Staff Saturday 23 rd – HIKE TO POÇÃO For this “urban trail”, Renato met the students at the beginning of the path, with is just one mile away from the University Campus. It is a short hike to reach the Poção, an beautiful waterfall with crystalline water and a nice natural pool to swim in and relax. Poção waterfall/Photo Credit: Jacob Wagner APRIL Saturday 6 th – STAND UP PADDLE-BOARD AT LAGOA For this event, USAC Floripa Staff gathered with the students at one of the most beautiful spots in Florianópolis, Lagoa da Conceição. It was a really sunny day, with just the perfect weather to do water sports. Kika, the surf teacher, met with everyone there to teach us how to do Stand Up.

Os marmanjos devem estar de cabelo em pé: como assim, e a minha mãe? Nem ela, caríssimos, nem ela. Existe mulher cansada, que é outra coisa. Ela deu tanto azar em suas relações que desanimou. Ela ficou tão sem dinheiro de uns tempos pra cá que deixou de ter vaidade. Ela perdeu tanto a fé em dias melhores que passou a se contentar com dias medíocres. Guardou sua loucura em alguma gaveta e nem lembra mais. Santa mesmo, só Nossa Senhora, mas cá entre nós, não é uma doideira o modo como ela engravidou? (não se escandalize, não me mande e-mails, estou brin-can-do). Toda mulher é doida. Impossível não ser.

  • Experience the Epic Life Story of Anita Garibaldi, A
    Experience the epic life story of Anita Garibaldi, a courageous, headstrong revolutionary who fought for freedom and self-determination in nineteenth-century Brazil, Uruguay, and Italy—and who had one of the most passionate love affairs in history. Forced to marry a man she does not love, Anita feels trapped in a life she does not want. But when she meets the leader of the Brazilian resistance, Giuseppe Garibaldi, in 1839, everything changes. Swept into a passionate affair with the idolized mercenary, Anita’s life is suddenly consumed by the plight to liberate southern Brazil—a struggle that would cost thousands of lives and span almost ten bloody years. Little did she know that this first taste of revolution would lead her to cross oceans, traverse continents, and become a heroine of two worlds. At once an exhilarating adventure and an unforgettable love story, THE WOMAN IN RED is a sweeping tale of the feminist icon who became one of the most revered historical figures of South America and Italy. It is the story of a woman who sought a life for herself on her own terms—and in doing so changed the course of history. DIANA GIOVINAZZO is the co-creator of Wine, Women and Words, a weekly literary podcast featuring interviews with authors over a glass of wine. Diana is active within her local literary community as the president of the Los Angeles chapter of the Women’s National Book Association. The Woman in Red is her debut novel.

Christopher Gillam & Oscar Marozzi Research What happened at the sites of prehistoric burial mounds after they were erected? In the southern highlands of Brazil and Argentina the pre-Hispanic mounds of the twelfth-thirteenth centuries AD are surrounded by large circular enclosures with avenues leading to their centre. The authors discovered that the banks of the surrounding enclosure were built up over several generations of time, accompanied by a succession of ovens. Ethnohistoric observations of more recent peoples in the same region suggested an explanation: the cremation of a chief was followed by periodic feasts at his mound, where meat was steamed and maize beer prepared at the edge of the gathering. Keywords: Argentina, Brazil, pre-Hispanic period, Taquara/Itarare,´ Kaingang, emergent complexity, public architecture, burial mounds, ceremonial enclosures, feasting Introduction Anthropologists and archaeologists studying the Neolithic in the Old World and Formative periods in the Americas have long been concerned with the study of the relationships between the living and the dead and in particular with the social and ideological roles of monumental burial and the appreciation and use of these burial monuments by successor societies (Fleming 1973; Beck 1995; Dillehay 1995; Barrett 1996).

  • Giuseppe Y Anita Garibaldi: Una Alegoría Americana De J.M
    Giuseppe y Anita Garibaldi: una alegoría americana de J.M. Rugendas María de Fátima Costa Universidad Federal de Mato Grosso / CNPq Resumen El pintor viajero alemán J.M. Rugendas (1802-1858) es uno de los más importantes creadores de la iconografía americana decimonónica. Su obra se destaca por la notable calidad que posee, así como por la amplia difusión que experimentó y porque fue asumida como propia en los diversos países por los que pasó, precisamente durante el proceso de gestación de las identidades nacionales. En su legado existe un conjunto de imágenes dedicado a los movimientos políticos de la región rioplatense, tomando como motivo central las figuras de Giuseppe Garibaldi y su mujer Anita. La lucha autonomista en la que intervino el prócer italiano en Sudamérica, junto con su mujer, una brasileña, fue plasmada en lenguaje visual por Rugendas, formulando una alegoría americanista, inspirada en La Libertad de Delacroix. La ponencia se propone analizar este cuerpo iconográfico, centrando la atención en dos monumentales óleos: Alegoría de la Revolución - Anita Garibaldi y El regreso de Garibaldi después de la Batalla de Santo Antonio. Estas obras son una manifestación del empeño del artista por integrarse al sueño político americano, creando por esta vía una iconografía con inequívocas connotaciones ideológicas. Palabras clave: Representaciones de América, Identidades nacionales, América Meridional. J.M. Rugendas (1802-1858) se cuenta entre los más importantes artistas viajeros que estuvieron en América durante el siglo XIX, y su obra está entre las que dieron la más sólida contribución a la iconografía de las jóvenes naciones americanas, más concretamente a Brasil, México y Chile.

  • Italians and Brazilians in Caxias, Brazil (1870 –1910)
    A PEARL IN A WORLD ON THE MOVE: ITALIANS AND BRAZILIANS IN CAXIAS, BRAZIL (1870 –1910) By Nicole Jean Magie A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History – Doctor of Philosophy 2014 ABSTRACT A PEARL IN A WORLD ON THE MOVE: ITALIANS AND BRAZILIANS IN CAXIAS, BRAZIL (1870 –1910) By Nicole Jean Magie During the late nineteenth century, while many Italians migrated to North American cities like New York and Chicago, they also headed to South America. While my research fits within this global context, it does not emphasize the popular images of Italian day-laborers and seamstresses in North American urban centers, or industrial workers and owners in Buenos Aires, or transient agricultural laborers in São Paulo’s coffee fields. Instead, my study focuses on families of Italian settlers recruited to southern Brazil, not with paid ocean passage like their migratory counterparts in São Paulo, but with promises of land ownership. Within Brazil’s southernmost state of Rio Grande do Sul, one of the most popular destinations for these migrant families was the mountainous area of Caxias do Sul, which was designated by the state in 1875 as one of its intentionally Italian migrant colonies. By examining this late nineteenth century migrant community through a nested series of increasingly broad lenses, I highlight the critical, yet underappreciated, roles of the state, non-Italians, and non-local trends within early Caxias history. The academic scholarship regarding this period, from 1870 to 1910, currently deemphasizes, and often neglects, the importance of these factors.
