Agnelo Gustav de Souza (1869-1927) Dedicated to his saintly life and to his important teachings. His sayings has been an integral part of my academic life. “One who fulfils his duties faithfully is on the way to perfection.” “One must not leave off a good action on account of the criticism of others.” iv v List of Papers The following papers (either published or under review) have resulted during the four year doctoral study.
