Abstract:
Nos primeiros anos de 1940 Jorge Amado publicou a biografia Vida de Luiz Carlos Prestes, El Caballero de la Esperanza. Na ocasião já carregava a alcunha de “escritor comuna” e precisou se exilar em Buenos Aires para produzir a obra; em 1939 ouviam-se os discursos de Getúlio Vargas em apoio ao Eixo e a perseguição aos militantes do Partido Comunista era contínua e violenta. Em 1941 e 1942, Amado sai do país e divide sua morada entre a Argentina e o Uruguai. Pouco se difundiu a respeito da produção intelectual e do engajamento político desses anos na vida do autor e é sobre tal período que me detenho neste artigo. Mais precisamente, parto da operação de “escovar a história a contrapelo” (BENJAMIN, 2016) para problematizar o corrente discurso biográfico sobre Amado e sugerir um outro rearranjo narrativo com base em um acervo literário, desconhecido até 2012. A proposta se inscreve nos atuais postulados da crítica biográfica, que reconhecem a potencialidade literária desse gênero na intersecção entre fato e ficção, a considerar que “[...] a vida do escritor reverte-se necessariamente em grafia, e a biografia se traduz em literatura” (SOUZA, 2011).

Em Jorge Amado, política e literatura caminham juntas e fazem o romancista conviver intensamente com o homem de imprensa e o militante. Partindo das crônicas publicadas, entre 1942 e 1944, na seção “Hora da Guerra”, do jornal baiano O Imparcial, e reunidas em livro recentemente, o presente trabalho empreende uma reflexão sobre o escritor enquanto cronista e intelectual orgânico — compagnon de route da utopia maior de seu tempo

Abstract:
Este artigo procura realizar apontamentos para uma reflexão sobre o significado político-cultural dos discursos proferidos pelo poeta chileno Pablo Neruda, Pedro Pomar (Secretário de Educação e Propaganda do PCB) e Jorge Amado, escritor comunista, no primeiro encontro do PCB com escritores. Este evento, pouco explorado nos estudos sobre as ações e político-culturais do PCB, aconteceu em julho de 1945, na cidade de São Paulo, durante as mobilizações pela democratização política do Brasil, legalização do PCB e anistia de Luís Carlos Prestes, Secretário-Geral do partido desde 1943. Os discursos proferidos por Neruda, Pomar e Amado foram reunidos no livreto intitulado “O Partido Comunista e a Liberdade de Criação”, publicado pela editora Horizonte, em 1946. O artigo analisa este documento, talvez o único ou principal registro do encontro, procurando relacioná-lo com o esforço pecebista para tornar a experiência do frentismo cultural realizado na clandestinidade numa proposta de programa cultural para o contexto da legalidade. Nessa perspectiva, destaca-se o empenho para reafirmar concepções e valorizar projetos literários desenvolvidos desde a década de 1930 e o significado das militâncias de Jorge Amado e Pablo Neruda na América Latina.

En sintonía con el clima de opinión de la época (Becker, 1971) —signado por el debate entre positivismo e idealismo como dos perspectivas antagónicas para el estudio del lenguaje—, la actividad del Instituto durante su etapa de emergencia y consolidación (1922-1946) procuró evaluar (e incorporar) los aportes de las teorías lingüísticas contemporáneas. Así, en determinadas intervenciones de Manuel de Montolíu (1926a, 1926b) y Amado Alonso (1928, 1932, 1943, 1945) —dos directores del organismo— podemos relevar una primera recepción y (eventual) difusión del Curso. Específicamente, estos dos filólogos españoles en principio asimilaron en clave de modernización científica el pensamiento saussureano, pues consideraron que era representativo de una visión espiritualista del lenguaje; luego, en sucesivas contribuciones, Alonso practicó nuevas lecturas e interpretaciones de la obra hasta que, en 1945, cuando prologó la traducción española que él mismo efectuó, dejó bien en claro que el Curso encarnaba, a su criterio, la consagración del positivismo.

Este trabalho objetiva analisar as práticas culturais teatrais em Belém do Pará (1941- 1968), a partir de ideologias e ações dos movimentos de teatro amadores e de estudantes, fundamentados no princípio de transformar a cena local. O suporte documental desta pesquisa constitui-se a partir do levantamento de fontes em instituições públicas, acervos pessoais, sites e produção bibliográfica de estudiosos brasileiros. Com base nesses documentos, procuramos refletir como os espetáculos (produtos poéticos) dialogaram com a conjuntura sociopolítica paraense e brasileira da época. Os princípios estéticos dos intelectuais e artistas desse referido movimento cultural revelam importantes percepções e ações “modernizantes” e de “vanguarda” sobre a cultura e a arte. Por isso, consideramos que a produção proposta pelo Teatro do Estudante do Pará (1941-1951), o Norte Teatro Escola do Pará (1957-1962) e o Serviço de Teatro da Universidade do Pará (1962-1967) entraram em confronto com outras formas cênicas, representantes do que definimos como tradição, principalmente as ligadas às práticas do teatro comercial e popular. Por fim, concluise que durante três décadas do século XX, a cena teatral paraense vivenciou atividades no setor da produção cultural, articuladas e fundamentadas nos princípios da erudição, propostos por esses grupos. Os subsídios do Estado, a qualificação dos artistas, a potencialidade renovadora da arte, entre outros motivaram os “vanguardistas” a pensar e fazer do teatro um campo importante de mobilização artística e intelectual na sociedade paraense.
This thesis aims at the analysis of the theatrical cultural practices in Belém do Pará, state of Pará, Brazil, from 1941 to 1968, by considering amateur and student´s theatre ideologies and movement, whose fundamental project was the transformation of local theatre practices. The materials for this research were collected in private and public institutions archives and in Brazilian scholars´ bibiographical production. From these materials, we have investigated how performances (“poetic products”) have created a dialogue with the sociopolitical environment in Brazil and in Pará during those years. Artists and intelectuals aesthetic principles in this cultural movement revealed important modernizing and avant garde actions and perceptions on culture and art. On account of that the production proposed by the groups Teatro do Estudante do Pará (1941-1951), the Norte Teatro Escola do Pará (1957-1962) and the Serviço de Teatro at the University of Pará (1962-1967) have confronted others theatre forms – specially the ones related to commercial and popular theatre practices – that represented what we define as a tradition. In the final analysis we conclude that cultural production have been articulated and grounded under erudition principals proposed by those traditional groups during three decades in Pará´s 20th century theater. The government arts funding, formal art education and arts renewing potency, among other reasons, have motivated the “avant garde artists” to think and to make theatre as an important artistic and intelectual mobilization field in Para´s society.

Esta tese de Doutorado analisa a representa??o das personagens homossexuais masculinas nos romances de Jorge Amado, buscando identificar como se processa a exclus?o dessas personagens do discurso central. Investiga ainda a possibilidade da inclus?o do conceito de homossexualidade nos de hibridismo, alteridade e mesti?agem. O corpus ? formado pelos romances do autor em que tais personagens aparecem: O pa?s do carnaval, de 1931; Suor, de 1934; Jubiab?, de 1935; Capit?es da areia, de 1937; Os subterr?neos da liberdade, de 1954; Gabriela, cravo e canela, de 1958 e Tereza Batista cansada de guerra, de 1972. A hip?tese norteadora deste texto ? a de que a forma de exclus?o das personagens homossexuais nesses romances ? a da desproblematiza??o e da ex-centricidade, alijando a tem?tica homossexual de um discurso centrado na heterossexualidade. A discuss?o e a an?lise de tal tema constitui-se no primeiro objetivo desta tese. Postula-se tamb?m a inclus?o da homossexualidade, desqualificada pela literatura amadiana, nos conceitos de hibridismo, alteridade e mesti?agem, pela amplia??o destes tr?s ?ltimos, considerados afins, recorrentes dentro da produ??o liter?ria do autor baiano. A inclus?o proposta forma o segundo objetivo do presente trabalho. O referencial te?rico vem de Michel Foucault, para quem problematiza??o e desproblematiza??o s?o maneiras, respectivamente, de gerar ou excluir discursos sobre um tema. De Jacques Derrida foi tomado o termo excentricidade, como marginaliza??o de um assunto que n?o interessa ao centro dominante. Dos Estudos Culturais, pelo pensamento de Peter Burke, Stuart Hall, Kabengele Munanga, e dos Estudos P?s-Coloniais, atrav?s de Hommi Bhabha, v?m as teorias necess?rias ? discuss?o dos conceitos de homossexualidade, hibridismo, alteridade e mesti?agem. Assim embasado, este trabalho insere-se na linha de pesquisa denominada Constru??es Te?ricas do Campo Liter?rio, do Programa de P?s-Gradua??o em Letras da Pontif?cia Universidade Cat?lica do Rio Grande do Sul e procede de tr?s inst?ncias: da Teoria da Literatura, ao analisar a forma de representa??o das personagens referidas e as estrat?gias do discurso de Jorge Amado; da Sociologia e da Antropologia, ao investigar os conceitos de ex-centricidade, desproblematiza??o e homossexualidade ; e dos Estudos Culturais e P?s-Coloniais, ao tomar destes campos os conceitos de h?brido, outro e mesti?o para aplic?los ?s personagens em foco neste texto. Esta tese estrutura-se em quatro cap?tulos, antecedidos do texto intitulado As inquieta??es: ? guisa de introdu??o, em que se explanam as raz?es para este trabalho e o referencial te?rico que embasa a pesquisa. O primeiro cap?tulo, As teorias, discute os conceitos de desproblematiza??o, ex-centricidade, hibridismo, alteridade e mesti?agem. O segundo cap?tulo, A homossexualidade, conceitua e delimita o termo e re?ne aspectos hist?ricos julgados relevantes para esta tese. O terceiro cap?tulo, O criador, apresenta epis?dios da vida de Jorge Amado que possam ter influ?do em sua leitura de mundo. O quarto cap?tulo, As criaturas, analisa a representa??o das personagens homossexuais nos sete romances de Amado em que elas aparecem. Em As respostas (poss?veis), retomam-se as principais ideias do texto, relacionando-as ?s teorias e explicitando as conclus?es a que se chegou. O Ap?ndice Dias de Salvador: de um caderno de viagem, cont?m poemas e fotos resultantes da estada da autora em Salvador, Bahia, onde participou como bolsista do interc?mbio PROCAD PUCRS/PPGL, UNEB /PPGL, em janeiro de 2009. Reflete poeticamente uma experi?ncia que se constituiu em parte importante desta tese. O Anexo traz a c?pia xerox de uma carta de 1975 dirigida por Jorge Amado ? professora Dr. Dileta Silveira Martins, da PUCRS, na qual o autor se refere, entre outras coisas, ao seu papel de escritor.

Abstract:
Este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar acerca da recepção do escritor brasileiro Jorge Amado nos Estados Unidos, mais especificamente no jornal norte-americano New York Times. Para tanto, foram levantados cento e cinquenta e um artigos publicados no referido periódico, entre os anos de 1945 e 2001. Para uma melhor compreensão da recepção do autor, primeiramente, apresenta-se um histórico das relações políticas e culturais entre Brasil e Estados Unidos no período que antecede a Segunda Guerra Mundial até o final desta. Com a chamada “política da boa vizinhança”, ambos países se aproximaram. O estreitamento dos laços é um fator que contribuiu para entrada de Jorge Amado no polissistema literário norte-americano, em 1945, com o livro Terras do sem-fim. O livro de estreia foi publicado pela prestigiada editora Alfred Knopf. A trajetória editorial do escritor, que passou pelas editoras Avon Books e Bantam, também é apresentada. A militância comunista de Jorge Amado foi acompanhada e registrada pela CIA (Central Intelligence Agency), fato verificado em vinte e dois relatórios produzidos pelo órgão durante a Guerra Fria. Os documentos corroboram a hipótese de que os laços políticos do escritor fizeram com que ocupasse posição periférica no polissistema durante dezessete anos. Apenas em 1962, um segundo livro do autor, Gabriela, foi publicado nos Estados Unidos, resultando em um sucesso comercial e colocando o escritor em posição de centralidade no polissistema. Dos anos 1960 aos anos 1980, Jorge Amado foi frequentemente associado ao boom da literatura latino-americana. Nesta última década, o escritor foi redescoberto: o livro Tocaia grande recebeu a maior quantia, até então, pelos direitos autorais de um livro estrangeiro. Ao longo de sua recepção, Jorge Amado sempre foi mencionado no New York Times como sinônimo e símbolo de Brasil.

This work aims to investigate the reception of the brazilian writer Jorge Amado in the United States, more specifically in the north-american newspaper New York Times. For this objective, one hundred and fifty-one articles published in the newspaper were found, between 1945 and 2001. For a better understanding of the author's reception, we presente the history of political and cultural relations between Brazil and United States during the period before World War II until the end of it. With the so-called "good neighbor policy", both countries have approached. The narrowing of ties is a factor that contributed to Jorge Amado's entry into the north-american literary polysystem in 1945, with the book The violent land. The debut book was published by the prestigious publisher Alfred Knopf. The writer's editorial trajectory, which went through Avon Books and Bantam, is also presented. The communist militancy of Jorge Amado was monitored and registered by the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency), fact verified in twenty-two reports produced by the organ during the Cold War. The documents corroborate the hypothesis that the writer's political ties caused him to occupy a peripheral position in the polysystem for seventeen years. Only in 1962, a second book by the author, Gabriela, was published in the United States, resulting in a commercial success and placing the writer in a position of centrality in the polysystem. From the 1960s to the 1980s, Jorge Amado was often associated with the boom of latin american literature. In this last decade, the writer was rediscovered: the book Showdown received the largest amount, until then, by the authors rights for a foreign book. Throughout his reception, Jorge Amado has always been mentioned in the New York Times as a synonym and symbol of Brazil.

La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación que existe entre capacidad funcional y autocuidado en adultos mayores del Centro de Salud Túpac Amaru - 2018. Estudio de tipo cuantitativo diseño transversal correlacional. La muestra estuvo conformada por 165 adultos mayores, se utilizó muestreo estratificado por afijación proporcional. En la recolección de datos se aplicaron dos instrumentos el índice de Katz para la variable capacidad funcional y la escala de prácticas de autocuidado para la variable autocuidado, se realizó la prueba piloto en una población con características similares a la del estudio. Así mismo, se determinó la fiabilidad de los instrumentos obteniendo un alfa de Cronbach de 0.90 para la variable capacidad funcional y 0.844 para la variable autocuidado. Se aplicó los principios éticos principalistas (respeto por las personas, beneficencia, justicia). Los datos obtenidos fueron registrados y procesados mediante el programa Excel y SPSS versión 24, se elaboró tablas de contingencia determinando si existe relación significativa entre ambas variables mediante el estadígrafo Chi cuadrado. Los resultados revelaron que los adultos mayores presentaron autonomía con un 98.2% y que el 78.8% presentaron buenas prácticas de autocuidado general, al contrastar ambas variables se concluyó que existe correlación negativa muy baja entre la capacidad funcional y el autocuidado de los adultos mayores del Centro de Salud Túpac Amaru. X2 = 0.823 gl=2 y cuyo p=0.663 (p>0.05), rechazando la hipótesis alternativa y aceptando la hipótesis nula.

I present the analysis about the mission with an emphasis on the use of metaphors as a particular system of language that expresses the identity of the group and the Baptist Mission as a collective project that is realized through the individual from local churches articulated to national institutions. The language expresses the missionary identity, which is the link between local and global projects and is the one that produces the feeling of belonging and group cohesion, linking the center to the margins and vice versa through the communication network produced by the Institution. The biblical metaphors are not a simple feature of Baptists missionary rhetoric, they are actually, a well-articulated system of meaning production, that keeps the concepts of the mission, anchored in Bible texts selected from the perspective of Baptist hermeneutic. In this sense, they are necessary because the message update of sowing in contexts such as the Amazon region of Pará during the military dictatorship, being effective to reproduce the precepts of the missionary world and renew the mission central concepts
Esta tese tem como objetivo geral o estudo sobre missão, linguagem e identidade religiosa na Amazônia Paraense, com especial interesse sobre a Missão Batista no Pará durante a ditadura militar (1968-1978). Apresento a análise sobre a Missão com ênfase no uso de metáforas como um sistema particular de linguagem que manifesta a identidade do grupo e a Missão Batista como um projeto coletivo que se realiza através do indivíduo a partir das Igrejas locais articuladas às Instituições Nacionais. A linguagem expressa a identidade missionária que é o vínculo entre os projetos locais e globais e é a que produz o sentimento de pertença e de coesão do grupo, unindo o centro às margens e vice-versa através da rede de comunicação produzida pela Instituição. As metáforas bíblicas não são para os Batistas um simples recurso da retórica missionária, elas são efetivamente um sistema bem articulado de produção de sentidos que mantém os conceitos sobre a missão ancorados nos textos da Bíblia selecionados sob a perspectiva da hermenêutica batista. Neste sentido, elas são necessárias porque atualizam a mensagem da semeaduraem contextos como o da Amazônia Paraense no período do regime militar, sendo eficazes para reproduzir os preceitos do universo missionário e renovar os conceitos centrais da missão

The research of Family Amaros is, in some sense, the continuity of the master thesis, entitled The Caretagem as cultural practice: faith, blackness and revelry in Paracatu, MG(1960-1980) and, consequently, the induced understand its displacement relative to a neighborhood on the outskirts of the city of Paracatu and understand their wiles and cultural resistance, especially with regard to the struggles and conflicts that have undertaken the process of resuming possession of their lands and farm Pituba. In this sense, this research on the family of Amaros aimed to deepen their ritual context, which aims to establish a dialogue that goes beyond a simple reading of the daily life they represent, because the trajectory envisioned an understanding of family and kinship network woven from cultural shaped face and survive the social and political issues experienced. In vieis, this agenda is the political struggle for social rights of the family land located on the farm of Amaros, Pituba, from which they were expropriated from the year 1940. In this political process was evidence the persistence of the values and traditions of African descent enrolled in a memory that moved to the urban periphery recreate their culture, their way of life, combining the family around their celebrations, sociability, arts and craft activities as a way of living maintain their cultural identity. From this point of view, we conceive the political struggle for recognition of their land and social rights embedded in their daily lives for their popular cultural practices, hence, the focus not only on their movement around the Palmares Cultural Foundation and the Institute for Black Speech, but also the set of symbolic representations that protect their cultural identity through a social memory in continuous recreation / reinvention.
A pesquisa - Família dos Amaros - é, em algum sentido, a continuidade do trabalho de mestrado, intitulado A Caretagem como prática cultural: fé, negritude e folia em Paracatu-MG (1960-1980) o que, por consequência, nos induziu a compreender o seu deslocamento familiar para um bairro da periferia da cidade de Paracatu. Assim como nos permitiu entender as suas astúcias e resistências culturais, especialmente no que diz respeito às lutas e conflitos que têm empreendido no processo de retomada e posse de suas terras da fazenda Pituba. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa sobre a família dos Amaros objetivou aprofundar seu contexto ritualístico, num diálogo que pretende ir além de uma leitura do simples cotidiano por eles representado, já que a trajetória vislumbrada passa pelo entendimento da rede de parentesco familiar e cultural tecida como forma de enfrentar e sobreviver às questões sociais e políticas vivenciadas. Neste viés, está em pauta a luta política pelos direitos sociais da terra da família dos Amaros situada na fazenda Pituba, que lhes foi expropriada a partir dos anos de 1940. Nesse processo político, evidencia-se a persistência dos valores e tradições inscritos numa memória afrodescendente que, deslocada para a periferia urbana, recria sua cultura, sua forma de viver, aglutinando os familiares em torno de suas festas, sociabilidades, atividades artesanais e artes de viver como forma de manter sua identidade cultural. Desse ponto de vista concebemos a luta política pelo reconhecimento de suas terras e direitos sociais entranhadas no seu cotidiano pelas suas práticas culturais populares, daí o enfoque não só na sua movimentação em torno da Fundação Cultural Palmares e do Instituto Fala Negra, mas também no conjunto de representações simbólicas que resguardam sua identidade cultural por meio de uma memória social em contínua recriação/reinvenção.

This dissertation has as goal to investigate the Leprosy History in the state of Amazonas, between 1930 to 1978, by privileging the memories from people Who experienced the treatment, that was characterized by the isolation on “colonies”, and the institutions built to sustain this disease that caused so much commotion and fear. Methodologically, we adopted two points of perspective: the first one, to collect the personal narratives and, the second one is a research into bibliographic sources and historical documents to approach the history of the institutions and the public health politics and its impacts and social threats. Accordingly, we emphasize that this dissertation privileges the socialanthropological nature of Leprosy, without ignore the biological issues, we remind that there is no disease without subject, and still, in each society and time, the way of comprehension of a disease will always be in the correlation between people and their interpretations and knowledge.
Esta dissertação teve como foco investigar a história da hanseníase no Amazonas, no período de 1930 a 1978 privilegiando, como recorte, as memórias das pessoas que experimentaram o período do tratamento que se caracterizava pelo isolamento em colônias, e as instituições que foram sendo construídas para dar conta desta doença que tanta comoção e temor causava nas pessoas sadias. Metodologicamente adotamos duas perspectivas, a primeira delas para colher as narrativas pessoais dos depoentes e, a segunda, a pesquisa em fontes e documentos históricos para abordar a história das instituições e das políticas públicas de saúde e seus impactos e contornos locais. Neste sentido ressaltamos que se trata de uma dissertação que privilegia a natureza socioantropologica da hanseníase, sem descartar as questões de natureza biológica, lembramos apenas que não há doença sem sujeito e, ainda, que em cada sociedade e tempo a forma de compreender e modelar uma doença estará sempre na correlação com as pessoas suas interpretações e saberes.

Abstract:
The cerrados of central Brazil have long been designated savannas without sufficient understanding of the structure and functioning of the different vegetation forms in the region. Excessive emphasis on identifying similarities with other savannas in Africa and Australia, and even within South America outside Brazil, prevented researchers from recognizing the cerrados’ special features and interdependence among themselves in the landscape where they occur. The more extensive cerrado sensu stricto on dystrophic soils, and to a lesser extent the gallery forests known locally as matas de galeria or matas ciliares, dominated the attention of most botanists and other researchers (Ratter and Dargie 1992, Furley 1992, Furley and Ratter 1988, Furley et al. 1992). Even with increasing interest in biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, very little ongoing research is reported on nutrient cycling from the cerrado region (Solbrig et al. 1996). Information available in the literature is restricted to isolated attempts to describe and quantify specific processes like litterfall and decomposition (Peres et al. 1983), rainwater composition (Schiavini 1983, Delitti 1984), soil fertility gradients (Lopes and Cox 1977), leaf nutrient concentrations (Haridasan 1987, 1992, Araújo and Haridasan 1988), primary productivity of the ground layer (Batmanian and Haridasan 1985, Meirelles and Henrique 1992), effects of burning (Coutinho 1990, Kauffman et al. 1994, Miranda et al. 1996c) and activities of soil fauna (Constantino 1988, Egler and Haridasan 1987, Oliveira Jr. 1985) at specific sites within a particular vegetation. Results of long duration experiments from permanent plots or watersheds are not yet reported in the literature. Very little information is available on the food webs or the role of fauna in nutrient cycling. Research on specific processes like CO2 emission on an ecosystem basis is quite recent (Miranda et al. 1996a, b, Mier et al. 1996). The following discussion is therefore restricted to the occurrence of different vegetation forms in the cerrado region and environmental factors affecting their distribution and functioning in relation to nutrient availability and nutrient cycling processes. One of the difficulties in getting information on research already carried out in Brazil is that the dissertations of graduate students in the universities are seldom published in indexed journals.

Abstract:
Tropical forests, with their high biological activity, have the potential to emit large amounts of trace gases and aerosol particles to the atmosphere. The accelerated development and land clearing that is occurring in large areas of the Amazon basin suggest that anthropogenic effects on natural biogeochemical cycles are already occurring (Gash et al. 1996). The atmosphere plays a key role in this process. The tropics are the part of the globe with the most rapidly growing population, the most dramatic industrial expansion and the most rapid and pervasive change in land use and land cover. Also the tropics contain the largest standing stocks of terrestrial vegetation and have the highest rates of photosynthesis and respiration. It is likely that changes in tropical land use will have a profound impact on the global atmosphere (Andreae 1998, Andreae and Crutzen 1997). A significant fraction of nutrients are transported or dislocated through the atmosphere in the form of trace gases, aerosol particles, and rainwater (Keller et al. 1991). Also the global effects of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and other trace gases have in the forest ecosystems a key partner. The large emissions of isoprene, terpenes, and many other volatile organic compounds could impact carbon cycling and the production of secondary aerosol particles over the Amazon region. Vegetation is a natural source of many types of aerosol particles that play an important role in the radiation budget over large areas (Artaxo et al. 1998). There are 5 major reservoirs in the Earth system: atmosphere, biosphere (vegetation, animals), soils, hydrosphere (oceans, lakes, rivers, groundwater), and the lithosphere (Earth crust). Elemental cycles of carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, and other elements interact with the different reservoirs of the Earth system. The carbon cycle has important aspects in tropical forests due to the large amount of carbon stored in the tropical forests and the high rate of tropical deforestation (Jacob 1999). In Amazonia there are two very different atmospheric conditions: the wet season (mostly from November to June) and the dry season (July-October) (see Marengo and Nobre, this volume). Biomass burning emissions dominate completely the atmospheric concentrations over large areas of the Amazon basin during the dry season (Artaxo et al. 1988).

Abstract:
To read the press of recent years, one might imagine that the fate of the world rests in the hands of those who would develop the Amazon basin. Waves of incoming colonists are blamed for the bulk of the deforestation and development (Schomberg 1998), but Asian logging firms, multinational oil companies, and gold miners are also portrayed as destructive agents hacking down the forest, systematically undermining its biodiversity, and severely contaminating its myriad ecosystems (Althaus 1996, Ferreira 1996, James 1998). The effects of these varied threats are regularly broadcast in alarming tones. Rueters News Service warned in January 1998 that “Brazil’s Amazon rain forest, the world’s richest trove of biological diversity and source of much of the Earth’s oxygen, continues to be ravaged” (Craig 1998). And, in April 1999, a writer for the Associated Press communicated the “fear” of unspecified scientists that “damage to the rain forest... could throw the Earth’s climate out of balance” (Donn 1999). Clearly, the fate of the Amazon and the implications of its fate to the overall Earth system are topics of enormous scientific and popular interest. While there is little disagreement that the complete destruction of Amazon forests would be catastrophic, what about partial deforestation of the region? How much, and which parts, of the Amazon can be converted to sustainable human land uses without compromising the ecological integrity of the conserved areas? How might this development impact regional climate, adjoining coastal systems, and overall global processes? Answers to these volatile questions remain elusive and seemingly endless strands of controversy swirl about them. At the heart of the matter, yet largely beyond the public discussion, are biogeochemical cycles that support and regulate the functioning of the Amazonia’s biological systems. Moreover, it is the incomplete understanding of these cycles that promotes uncertainty and feeds the controversy. The purpose of this book is to present a coherent assessment of our current understanding of the biogeochemical functioning of the Amazon basin. Although it is surely presumptuous to assume that this presentation will shed sufficient light on the uncertainties to eliminate the current controversies, we hope that it will provide a basis for lifting the discussion to a higher level.

Abstract:
The immense discharge of the Amazon River causes river/ocean mixing to take place out on the continental shelf instead of within a drowned river valley, as in many smaller dispersal systems (Nittrouer and DeMaster, 1996). The magnitude of this discharge can be appreciated by recognizing that the Amazon River supplies approximately 20% (6 x 1015 L yr−1) of the freshwater reaching the oceans via fluvial transport and roughly 6% (1.2 x 1015 g yr−1, Meade et al. 1985) of the global riverine sediment discharge. Chemical, physical, and biological processes occurring in the river/ocean mixing zone control the fates of these riverine materials, as well as the fates of substances brought onto the shelf from offshore as a result of the estuarine-like circulation. Depending on balances between transport, reaction rates, and sedimentation, the mixing zone may act as a net source, sink, or bypass conduit for chemical species in the coastal environment. For example, if Amazon River nutrients such as silicate, phosphate, or nitrate are simply removed from solution and buried as particulate biogenic debris on the adjacent shelf, the river would have little influence on global ocean nutrient budgets. In contrast, if nutrients coming down the river are not efficiently buried nearshore (as a result of minimal biological uptake or efficient recycling), then they may contribute to larger scale oceanic or atmospheric budgets of Si, P, and N (Treguer et al. 1995; Delaney, 1998). The Amazon River transports ~1015 moles yr−1 of particulate organic carbon from the terrestrial environment to the ocean (Degens et al. 1991). The fate of this material (some of it from leaf litter and some of it from older, more refractory soils) is important to understand because the Amazon River/ocean mixing zone comprises a significant fraction of all deltaic depositional environments, where ~50% of the marine burial of organic matter occurs (Berner 1982, 1989, Hedges and Keil 1995; Devol et al. this volume). The Amazon River also discharges an equivalent amount of dissolved organic carbon (~1012 moles yr−1), much of which is in the form of high molecular weight organic compounds (Sholkovitz et al. 1978, Degens et al. 1991).

Abstract:
Secondary forests cover approximately one third of the 0.5 million km2 of the Brazilian Amazon that have been cleared for agriculture (Houghton et al. 2000, Fearnside and Guimarães 1996). These forests counteract many of the deleterious impacts of forest conversion to agriculture and cattle pasture. They absorb carbon from the atmosphere, they reestablish hydrological functions performed by mature forests, and they reduce the flammability of agricultural landscapes. Secondary forests transfer nutrients from the soil to living biomass, thereby reducing the potential losses of nutrients from the land through leaching and erosion. They also allow the expansion of native plant and animal populations from mature forest remnants back into agricultural landscapes. The study of forest recovery has focused on aboveground processes, primarily biomass accumulation. The few studies that have examined the recovery of belowground functions in Amazon secondary forests have been restricted to the upper meter or less of soil (e.g. Buschbacher et al. 1988). A review of our knowledge of secondary forest recovery is needed that incorporates accumulating evidence that approximately half of the region’s forests rely upon root systems extending to depths of several meters to maintain evapotranspiration during prolonged seasonal drought (Nepstad et al. 1994, Jipp et al. 1998, Nepstad et al. 1999a, Hodnett et al. 1997; see also Richter and Markewitz 1995). This discovery demands a conceptual shift in our approach to forest recovery on abandoned land. Are secondary forests capable of regrowing deep root systems, thereby recovering hydrologic functions and fire resistance of the mature forest? At what rate does this recovery take place? How does this ability to tap a large soil volume change our thinking about the role that nutrient shortages play in restricting secondary forest recovery? In this chapter, we begin to address these questions with the goal of furthering a mechanistic understanding of forest recovery on abandoned Amazonian lands. Our analysis focuses on three measures of secondary forest development: biomass accumulation, nutrient accumulation, and hydrological recovery. We choose biomass accumulation, because it is the best integrative measure of secondary forest development, it is the basis for estimates of carbon sequestration by secondary forests, and it is the most frequently measured secondary forest parameter.

Abstract:
The history of archaeology in Brazil has been divided into phases following different criteria. Most authors consider that archaeology should have its own disciplinary history, not tied to the overall political history of the country. A. Prous (1992) identified five periods and A. Mendonça de Souza (1991) followed the same disciplinary history approach, but proposed only four periods. The history of archaeology in Brazil should not, however, be considered independent from Brazilian history. Because the development of archaeology’s practice, theory, and methodology depends directly on the socio-political conditions in a given country, it is possible to relate the social practice of archaeology and political changes. As with any intellectual endeavour, archaeological activities are the result of social conditions and relations prevailing in different periods. Thus we can say that archaeology in Brazil went through seven phases: the colonial period (1500–1822); the Brazilian empire (1822–89); the early republic (1889–1920s); the formative period (1920–49); the inception of university research (1950–64); the military period, and the constitution of an archaeological establishment (1964–85); and current trends, democratic and pluralist archaeology (1985 onwards). There are few references in colonial sources to archaeological sites, although F. Cardim (1925) notes that shell mounds were identified in Brazil by their Tupi name sambaquis as early as 1583, and F. Coelho’s soldiers, as early as 1598, mention rock inscriptions (Prous 1992: 5). However, travellers and writers such as Y. d’Euvreux (1985), G. Soares (1944), G. Carvajal (1942), A. Thevet (1944) and H. Staden (1930), among others, described native inhabitants and their culture, furnishing a lot of data on Indian material culture. Thanks to these sources, it is possible to study native settlements while taking into full account the historic evidence relating to the following areas: the East Amazon basin area, Porro 1992; Taylor 1992; Erikson 1992; Wright 1992; the North Amazon region, Farage and Santilli 1992; Menéndez 1992; Amoroso 1992; the South Amazon area, Perrone-Moisés 1992; Franchetto 1992; Lopes da Silva 1992; the north-east, Paraíso 1992; Dantas, Sampaio, and Carvalho 1992; the south-west, Carvalho 1992; the south, Monteiro 1992; Kern 1982; the entire country, Fausto 1992.

Abstract:
Abstract Renewable Energy (RE)-based power production often comes with certain challenges in variability and uncertainty of generated electricity. One promising solution to tackle these challenges is developing a network of RE power plants with sites located far enough from each other that experience different weather patterns. Most of the site selection-related literature use Geographical Information Systems to determine the studied site RE suitability. This work converts the site selection into a numerical problem through a novel Networked Renewable Power Plant Site Selection model and solves it by employing optimization techniques. To enhance the accuracy of the results, it compares a set of criteria for individual and network of sites at different regions to determine the exact locations for RE plant developments. The Analytical Hierarchy Process is used for criteria weighing. The state-of-the-art meta-heuristic Bare Bones of Fireworks algorithm offer a simple, fast, yet accurate approach to solve the optimization. The proposed method is applied on North Carolina wind farms for both individual and a network of sites. The results identified the areas with the highest wind capacity potential for individual or a network of wind farms in North Carolina. The identified suitable areas were verified with Amazon Wind Farm US East.
