Architecture 6/@D/@2@3D73E=4:/B7</;3@71/A>@7<5jAC;;3@ /@167B31BC@3 ARTIST CREDIT NAME AND URL 327B=@¸A:3BB3@ ZocaloBeyond Hed Buildings 26 pt Zocalo deck 14 point one line BY Many a year ago, when I first came to work at DRCLAS, I hosted a summer intern from South Carolina. She was even newer to Cambridge than I was. On her first day at work, I sent her to mail a FedEx package, instructing her that the drop box was in the lobby of the “really ugly building two blocks down the street.” She came back defeated. “I looked all around, and I couldn’t find a FedEx box in the ugly building,” she said. I pressed her for more details. It turns out that her ugly building was the Swedenborg Chapel, a stone gothic revival building that I happen to admire, while mine was across the street: William James Hall, architect Minoru Yamasaki’s 1963 high-rise which Robert Bell Rettig describes in Guide to Cambridge Architecture as “fourteen stories of pure white concrete.” D=:C;37F<= I should have known better than to describe a building in such a subjective way (even =Zob]Kh\d^_^ee^k<^gm^k though I still think it’s the ugliest building on campus). Buildings may be made of stone, con- _hkEZmbg:f^kb\ZgLmn]b^l crete, glass, steel or bamboo. But in the end, they are architectural creations, acts of imagina- 2W`SQb]` tion, that are viewed in very different ways. Buildings are subjective. ;S`WZSSA5`W\RZS Their very presence helps shape society. The way buildings are viewed, how they are built /aa]QWObS2W`SQb]` and who builds them can become ideological battlefield. In my life as a foreign correspondent, 9ObVg3QY`]OR I’ve witnessed many fierce debates that ultimately are debates about what buildings repre- sent and how they create a concept of community: should a dictator’s house be torn down or K^OblmZ turned into a Culture Ministry? (Nicaragua); should a modern palace—replacing another that 3RWb]`W\1VWST was seen as a symbol of Prussian imperialism—be torn down to make way for a partial recon- 8c\S1O`]Zg\3`ZWQY struction of the original baroque one? (Berlin); should public libraries be designed for poor 1]^g3RWb]` neighborhoods? (Bogotá). /\WbOAOT`O\ It was in Colombia that I first discovered how buildings shape the lived environment. The >cPZWQObW]\a7\bS`\ buildings of Rogelio Salmona interweave with the fabric of the society, whether in social hous- 8OW10SS[O\ ing, public buildings or luxury dwellings. In Nicaragua, I discovered what it meant to have a 2SaWU\ city literally disappear, its buildings tumbled by an earthquake and never rebuilt. I also learned Q][[c\W_c{ that solutions are not always easy. City dwellers with peasant roots did not like the Sandinis- eee Q][[c\W_cSQ][ tas’ East German-influenced clean but sterile apartment dwellings that had no gardens and no >`W\bS` space for chickens. >@>cPZWQObW]\a It’s not just buildings that shape society, but the parks and playgrounds that surround 1]\bOQbCa them, that carve out outdoor living space and centers for interaction, as both Flavio Janches %!1O[P`WRUSAb`SSb and Anita Berrizbeitia so eloquently explain in this issue. 1O[P`WRUS;/ !& In so many places where I’ve lived as a correspondent, war, revolution, social upheaval and BSZS^V]\S($%"'##" & natural disasters have shaped the way cities are lived in and built. I was recently in the lovely 4OQaW[WZS($%"'$ & colonial city of Antigua in Guatemala, originally the capital city of the country. After a major AcPaQ`W^bW]\aO\R@SORS`4]`c[ earthquake in 1776, the capital was moved to Guatemala City. A friend remarked, “I’m glad XS`ZWQY.TOaVO`dO`RSRc there was an earthquake then, because as a capital city, Antigua would have lost its charm.” I ESPaWbS had never thought of that. eeeR`QZOaVO`dO`RSRc^cPZWQObW]\a `SdWabO]\ZW\S Major disasters like the recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile give architects and urban planners an unusual opportunity to think about the meaning of their buildings and green 4OQSP]]Y @SDWabObVS6O`dO`R@SdWSe]T:ObW\/[S`WQO spaces. Oscar Grauer draws on his extensive experience rebuilding Venezuela’s littoral to give us some thoughts on Haiti; Pablo Allard gives us an incisive view on how a small town was BVWaWaacS]T@SDWabOWa[ORS^]aaWPZS rebuilt in Chile after a volcanic eruption. bV`]cUVbVSUS\S`]caac^^]`b]T0O\Q] As I walk to work every day, I pass the Harvard Graduate School of Design. As I peeped into AO\bO\RS` a large glassed-in auditorium this morning, I saw that students were looking at slides of build- 1]^g`WUVb PgbVS>`SaWRS\bO\R ings. It’s not just buildings, I wanted to tell them; think about the way that all those buildings 4SZZ]ea]T6O`dO`R1]ZZSUS have shaped all those lives. 7AA<#"³""! @SDWabOWa^`W\bSR]\`SQgQZSRab]QY 6/@D/@2@3D73E=4:/B7</;3@71/ A>@7<5jAC;;3@ D=:C;37F<= >cPZWaVSRPg2OdWR@]QYSTSZZS`1S\bS` T]`:ObW\/[S`WQO\AbcRWSa 6O`dO`RC\WdS`aWbg /@167B31BC@3 67AB=@G 7<3D3@G7AAC3 AZoZgZFh]^kg;rE^eZg]<hmm ! :MZe^h_Mak^^;nbe]bg`l;r;kngh<ZkoZeah % ;/97<5/27443@3<13 ;kZlbebZ;r?Zkl^e&=Za]Za Lnff^k<ZfibgEZlM^kk^gZl $" :g:n]b^g\^pbmaHl\ZkGb^f^r^k;rCZf^l;khpg # ;r@Z[kb^eZ?Zkk^ee Ikh]n\mbo^Phkd^kl_hkma^GZmbhg;rKb\Zk]hEi^s&I^]k^khl $ Bgl^\mE^llhgl $# ;r;kbZg?Zkk^ee B67<97<5A>/13AC@0/<>:/13A Phkdbg`bgma^:gmbih]^l;r:e^cZg]kh:kZo^gZ 0==9B/:9 Lh\bZeIheb\rZg]:gmb&Iho^kmrLmkZm^`b^l $$ =^lb`gbg`Nk[ZgHiihkmngbmb^l;r?eZobhCZg\a^l ! :K^ob^p;rFZkmbgZ@'ObZk^g`h Ahnlbg`%Nk[Zg=^lb`gZg]<bmbs^glabi;rChl]^?bebiib # Ma^?b`am_hkF^qb\h $& Iahmh^llZr3F^qb\h<bmr%:`Zbg;rKhlZkbhBgl@kZgZ]hlLZebgZl & :K^ob^p[rFhgb\Z<Zfi[^ee JnZebmr=^lb`gFZmm^kl;rHl\Zk@kZn^k ! :ee:[hnm:efh]oZk % HgAZbmb;rHl\Zk@kZn^k !! :K^ob^p[r<akblOh`gZk Ob^pbg`Kh`^ebhLZefhgZ;rCng^<Zkherg>keb\d !"

    PUBLIC ARCHAEOLOGY AND HERITAGE VALUE(S): LEARNING FROM URBAN ENVIRONMENTS IN CENTRAL BRAZIL By RENATA DE GODOY A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2012 1 © 2012 Renata de Godoy 2 To all Brasilienses (from birth or by choice) 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First I thank the person who stood by me during my entire research, physically, emotionally, and also as a colleague, my dear love Diogo Costa. I thank my family, always so supportive, specially my parents Gil and Maria Tereza, my sister Patricia, and my dear aunt Stela. I appreciate my friends’ support over the years, old friends who have always been by my side, and newer friends I met in Gainesville and in Brazil after returning in 2009, some as classmates, others as workmates, my sincere appreciation to all of you. I am also grateful for the special attention, and for the professional opportunities professor Joseli Macedo has given me. I’d like to thank the professors on my committee, each with so much expertise and wisdom to offer, without them I would have never finished this research. I thank specially my committee chair Augusto Oyuela-Caycedo for his kind words of incentive, countless advice and support. Thanks to Brijesh Thapa for priceless guidance and to Steven Brandt for sharing his thoughts since the very early stages of this research. Truly special thanks to Michael Heckenberger for mentoring during most of this journey, for his support and friendship.

  • The Mascagnia Cordifolia Group (Malpighiaceae)
    Contr.2005 Univ. Michigan Herb. 24:ANDERSON 33–44. 2005. & DAVIS: MASCAGNIA 33 THE MASCAGNIA CORDIFOLIA GROUP (MALPIGHIACEAE) William R. Anderson Charles C. Davis University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 ABSTRACT. A revision is provided for the Mascagnia cordifolia group, five South American species with basally biglandular petioles. The group comprises M. aptera W. R. Anderson, M. cordifolia (Adr. Juss. in A. St.-Hil.) Griseb. in Mart., and three new species: M. aequatorialis W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis, M. affinis W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis, and M. glabrata W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis. The treatment includes a key, descriptions, specimens studied, notes, a distribution map, and illustrations of M. aequato- rialis, M. aptera, and M. cordifolia. Mascagnia (Bertero ex DC.) Colla, as treated by Niedenzu (1928) and other authors, is a diverse assemblage of about 100 species of wing-fruited Malpighiaceae. Anderson (e.g., 1990, p. 51) has suggested repeatedly that the genus in the broad tra- ditional sense is possibly or probably polyphyletic, and recent molecular phylogenies (Cameron et al. 2001; Davis et al. 2001, 2002) have supported his opinion—they show that Mascagnia sens. lat. comprises at least six distinct clades. In a separate paper, now in preparation, W. R. Anderson will divide Mascagnia sens. lat. into several putatively monophyletic genera. Mascagnia sens. str. is by far the largest clade within Mascagnia sens. lat. Most species of Mascagnia sens. str. can be recognized by the following combination of character-states (W. R. Anderson, unpublished data): vines with interpetiolar stipules, glands impressed in the abaxial surface of the lamina, glabrous petals exposed in the enlarging bud, orbicular membranous samaras with arching and anastomosing veins in the lateral wing, and a smooth three-lobed disciform structure subtending the fruit.
