Abstract: Visoes conflitantes de meio ambiente e propriedade marcaram a historia da apropriacao dos seringais de 1840 ate as primeiras decadas do sec. XX. A apropriacao ecologica local - na qual terra significava floresta e o numero economicamente lucrativo de seringueiras definia o tamanho e os contornos da propriedade seringueira - colidiu com o sentido cientifico-territorial da terra: apenas um solo a ser desmatado para a monocultura, sendo a propriedade definida por sua extensao. Os promotores das plantations associaram-nas a civilidade e os seringais a incivilidade e primitivismo, ofuscando a complexa combinacao de percepcao ecologica da natureza com concepcoes modernas de propriedade e de terra que caracterizava os seringais.

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the construction of power, in a predominantly rural world of the Central Valley of Costa Rica, based on the interaction between government agents and rural communities, is presented.
Abstract: This article constitutes an analysis of the construction of power, in a predominantly rural world of the Central Valley of Costa Rica, based on the interaction between government agents and rural communities. It intends to unveil a dimension of hegemonic practices in the organization of collective work for the development of infrastructure required for the process of commercialization of the economy. The steering power of the government agents is acknowledged, debated on, and negotiated by the peasant communities, intersected by economic and regional differences and conflicts. Points of coincidence and fracture between communities are woven into the discursive constructions facing public policies, whether in a subtle or open manner.

TL;DR: A critical reading of the book A Igreja dos Quatro Seculos de Sao Paulo - 1554-1954 as mentioned in this paper shows the presence of Jesuits during the early colonial period and especially their role in the official establishment of the city.
Abstract: This article results from a critical reading of the book A Igreja dos Quatro Seculos de Sao Paulo - 1554-1954. In its historical approach, this book expresses two characteristics of a historiography and representation of the past associated with Sao Paulo's elite: the bandeirante spirit and the Paulistas' role in shaping the nation. The book constructs Sao Paulo's Catholic past in relation to a selection of specific historical moments and elements, emphasizing the presence of Jesuits during the early colonial period and especially their role in the official establishment of the city. During subsequent periods, this approach selects facts and actors that do not contradict the general representation, which seeks to show the perennial force of Catholicism in Sao Paulo and in Brazil.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new interest for this last one was created and accomplished through the hermeneutics of Gadamer and Ricoeur, taking into consideration the permanence of modern social processes of autonomization, through which a kind of "automatic subject" dominates and involves individual agents.
Abstract: After the crisis of the historiographic models of the 70's and 80's, characterized by a mutual fragmentation of objects and the subject, a new interest for this last one was created and accomplished through the hermeneutics of Gadamer and Ricoeur. My article intends to examine this alternative, taking into consideration the permanence of modern social processes of autonomization, through which a kind of "automatic subject" dominates and involves individual agents. A free and conscious subject is only possible under the circumstance of a crisis like the present one, making of it the decisive opportunity for a critical reorganization of the entire system composed by identities and differences that constitute social existence and historical conscience.

TL;DR: The political conflicts of the late 1920s between the Paulista Republican Party and the Democratic Party of Sao Paulo played a much larger role in the politics of the 1930s than indicated by the existing historiography.
Abstract: The political conflicts of the late 1920s between the Paulista Republican Party and the Democratic Party of Sao Paulo played a much larger role in the politics of the 1930s than indicated by the existing historiography. In particular, these conflicts helped to lay the groundwork for the mobilization of the state of Sao Paulo against the federal government headed by Getulio Vargas by encouraging the kind of regionalist-cum-nationalist identification that would serve as a rallying cry for the Paulista rebels of 1932.

TL;DR: Capistrano de Abreu (1853 - 1927) vem sendo costumeiramente apontado pela historiografia, como um historiador that nao justificou o vulto de seu conhecimento, em uma obra escrita de tamanho e peso as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Joao Capistrano de Abreu (1853 - 1927), vem sendo costumeiramente apontado pela historiografia, como um historiador que nao justificou o vulto de seu conhecimento, em uma obra escrita de tamanho e peso. O aprofundamento na correspondencia do intelectual, no entanto, sinaliza que Capistrano de Abreu nao se ajustou as praticas de pesquisa e divulgacao de conhecimento, oferecidas na virada do seculo XIX para o XX, em nosso pais. Nesse sentido, pelo uso que o historiador fazia da correspondencia - comparavel em volume, com a obra publicada em vida por Capistrano -, acreditamos que o intelectual tenha se sentido mais a vontade para declinar o seu amplo conhecimento, de uma forma privada.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors' critical view regarding the cultural guidelines adopted by the Brazilian State in the construction of a national identity throughout the period known as Estado Novo (1937-1945).
Abstract: This article investigates some aspects of the relations between history and literary criticism in Sergio Buarque de Holanda's writings of the 1940s. It analyzes Sergio Buarque's participation in the debate on the authorship of the Cartas Chilenas, specifically through his discussions with the poet Manuel Bandeira. Despite the fact that they were professionally connected to official cultural institutions, it is possible to identify both authors' critical view regarding the cultural guidelines adopted by the Brazilian State in the construction of a national identity throughout the period known as Estado Novo (1937-1945).
