ABSTRACT
THE ARCHITECTURE OF KNOWLEDGE: THE JESUIT COLLEGE OF OAXACA (XVI-XIX CENTURIES).

The educational endeavor that the Jesuits – members of the religious order known as the Society of Jesus – carried out in Mexico in the course of the colonial period, when this territory belonged to the Viceroyalty of New Spain (sixteenth to nineteenth centuries), was exceptional. Even though this endeavor has been extensively studied, not much has been written about the edifices, and their significant artistic contents, that not only facilitated the endeavor, but also allowed it to thrive. With the aim of contributing to fill that gap in the scholarly literature, this study engages in an artistic and architectural examination of one among the dozens of school complexes that the Jesuits built and decorated in New Spanish territory: the College of Oaxaca. This establishment was the primary educational institution in one of the most prosperous cities of the viceroyalty, and it ranked third in importance among the colleges that the Jesuits founded in New Spain, representing a clear example of the process of spiritual, intellectual and material expansion that the Society of Jesus carried out in Spanish America. By locating, transcribing and interpreting primary sources (primarily inventories and commissions for works of art) that have not been noticed before or have remained unpublished, and by analyzing the material remains that have survived to this day, it has been possible to reveal that the former Jesuit complex – which today serves, simultaneously, as an apartment building, an indoor parking, a series of storefronts, and a church served by a community of Jesuits – once featured a significantly rich artistic and architectural program, the result of assimilating, but also of rejecting, local and Jesuit traditions. This program, unfortunately, has been progressively disappearing since the expulsion of the Jesuits from Oaxaca in 1767.

Full textAbstract:
A presente tese estuda a produção arquitetônica e artística nas Missões Jesuíticas situadas no território do antigo Estado do Maranhão e Grão-Pará (criado em 1621), com particular destaque à região da Capitania do Grão-Pará. O arco temporal compreende os anos de 1653 (estabelecimento da Companhia de Jesus em Belém) a 1759 (expulsão dos jesuítas das colônias portuguesas). A tese enfoca, em particular, o trabalho artístico de jesuítas e índios nas oficinas que funcionaram no Colégio Jesuítico de Santo Alexandre em Belém a partir do século XVIII; procurando identificar a irradiação de modelos criados nas mesmas em direção às igrejas e capelas implantadas pelos jesuítas ao longo do Rio Amazonas e seus afluentes; sobretudo, àquelas que estavam localizadas em vilas, aldeias ou fazendas jesuíticas mais próximas a Belém (Vila de Nossa Senhora de Nazaré da Vigia, Vila Souza do Caeté, Mortigura, Gibirié, Mamaiacú, Jaguarari, entre outras). É colocada a hipótese de que Belém, como um pólo criador de modelos (também pólo econômico e comercial), alimentou toda a produção artística dos jesuítas no Grão-Pará, ao difundir seus métodos de trabalho e suas experiências técnicas. O título Tintas da Terra, Tintas do Reino sintetiza a idéia central da tese, de que o legado dos jesuítas na arquitetura e na arte nas missões do Grão-Pará é resultado do trabalho de europeus e de índios, e do emprego de suas tradições culturais.This thesis is a study of the artistic and architectural production of the Jesuit Missions in the former State of Maranhão and Grão Pará, which was established in 1621, with a special emphasis on the Captaincy of Grão Pará. The period under study spans the time from 1653, when the Society of Jesus settled in the city of Belém, to 1759, when the Jesuits were expelled from Portuguese colonies. This thesis focuses in particular on the artistic work of both jesuits and indians carried out in the workshops at the Jesuit School of Santo Alexandre in Belém in the 18th century. The thesis seeks to trace the dissemination of the models created in such workshops throughout the Jesuit churches and chapels that were built along the borders of the River Amazon and its tributaries, especially those located in the Jesuit aldeias, vilas and fazendas closer to Belém (Vila de Nossa Senhora de Nazaré da Vigia, Vila Souza do Caeté, Mortigura, Gibirié, Mamaiacú, Jaguarari, among others). The hypothesis under investigation in this study is that Belém, in addition to being an economic and commercial hub, was also an artistic center providing models, working methods and technical expertise for the entire Jesuit artistic community in the Grão Pará. The title Tintas da Terra, Tintas do Reino summarizes the core idea underlying this thesis, namely that the Jesuit legacy in the art and architecture of the Grão Pará missions is the result of the work of europeans and indians, who in doing so resorted to their respective cultural traditions.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis sets out to shed light on the contribution of the Jesuit Order, often known as the Society of Jesus, to the dissemination of ideas about military architecture in the Baroque age. In the first chapter, it is shown that the Jesuits developed an extraordinarily militant form of religious expression that included in its agenda their involvement in 'just wars' against Protestant 'heretics' or Turkish infidels, these being considered to be the two prime enemies of the Catholic Church. The 'military mind' of St Ignatius of Loyola, the preaching, confessional and wider educational ministries of his Order and the compilation of early Jesuit books on war ethics are all addressed together with the relationship that quickly evolved between the mathematical disciplines entrenched in the Jesuit curriculum of studies known as the Ratio Studiorum and the geometry of war. In the context of the great religious divides and numerous wars that characterized early modem Europe, it is shown in the second and third chapters how the Jesuits assisted Catholic leaders by using the mathematical faculties attached to many of their colleges and seminaries for nobles to disseminate knowledge on fortification matters. This was achieved through teaching (both classroom and private), writing (treatises in manuscript or book form), consultations (letters and reports) and, at times, even active service in the field by Jesuit fortification experts attached to Catholic armies. Such military activity was by no means restricted to the European continent. In SQuth America. the Philippines and China, the Jesuits formed armies, built fortresses and manufactured cannons to protect and propagate their missionary work Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam. The involvement of Jesuits in military matters and their many fortification treatises, not surprisingly, sometimes provoked a negative reactiQn from Generals of the Order who saw them running counter to Loyola's religious vision of world evangelization. But the expertise was real and recognized as such by contemporaries. By examining a late seventeenth-century Spanish treatise on military architecture entitled Escuela de Palas, the third chapter confirms that Jesuit mathematicians who taught and wrote on fortification (sometimes using pseudonyms to protect their identity) were often regarded as experts in military architecture, rivalling the achievements in this field of knowledge of leading military engineers such as Vauban. In the fourth chapter, the career of the Sicilian Jesuit mathematicus Giacomo Maso has been examined in depth because it provides a good case study of the controversy and crisis of conscience that Jesuits contributing to the dissemination of fortification knowledge often had to face. In conclusion, it has been shown in the fifth and final chapter that the interest of several Jesuits in the subject of military architecture remained strong in the 1773-1814 suppression period, after which, however, it was discontinued.

Como principal ferramenta de expansão territorial, cultural e comercial utilizada pela Coroa Portuguesa a partir do século XVI, a Companhia de Jesus deixou marcas em edifícios no território brasileiro, sendo mais comuns, os colégios e suas igrejas. Os padrões arquitetônico-construtivos cujas origens podem ser traçadas a partir de Roma, seguem até Portugal, onde incorporam novos elementos, e depois ao nordeste brasileiro, onde sofrem adaptações devido ao novo e distinto contexto. Materiais diferentes, escassez de mão de obra especializada e recursos financeiros reduzidos definiram o que se pode afirmar ser a vertente nordestina brasileira da arquitetura jesuítica portuguesa, visível nas ruínas da igreja do Real Hospício do Ceará, e devido à sua influência, em diversos outros edifícios religiosos pelos sertões do nordeste brasileiro. Dado este contexto, o trabalho traz à luz uma proposta de análise técnica-construtiva e reconstituição da antiga igreja jesuíta de Aquiraz-CE sob a perspectiva da Arqueologia da Arquitetura; Abstract:
The Society of Jesus in Brazil
The jesuit church of Aquiraz-CE under the archaeology perspective
As the main tool for territorial, cultural and commercial expansion used by the Portuguese Crown since the 16th century, the Society of Jesus left traces in buildings in Brazil, most commonly jesuit schools and temples. The architectural-constructive patterns whose origins can be traced back to Rome, continue to Portugal, incorporating new elements, and then to northeastern Brazil, undergoing adaptations due to the new and distinctive context. Different materials, lack of specialized labor and reduced funding defined what can be called the Brazilian northeastern variation of Portuguese jesuit architecture, visible in the Ceará Royal Jesuit Hospice church’s ruins, and given the influence of society at the time, in several other religious buildings in the northeastern countryside Brazil. Given the context, this work brings to light a proposal for technical-constructive analysis and reconstitution of the old jesuit church building in Aquiraz-CE from the perspective of the Archaeology of Architecture.

Full textAbstract:
Este trabalho nasceu de um discurso fotográfico, isto é, a fotografia não só como uma ferramenta de pesquisa, mas também como um discurso visual, retraduzindo textos em imagens, e que nos revelou que a cruz e a quadra são as marcas da arquitetura da Companhia de Jesus. No primeiro capítulo pretendemos demonstrar que a cruz é o princípio norteador da simbologia dos jesuítas, apresentar quem eles eram, o que queriam, e porque vieram ao Brasil nos primórdios dos primeiros agenciamentos e ordenamentos. No segundo capítulo pretendemos demonstrar como a cruz é um traçado regulador que originou o pátio e a quadra, e o que isso simbolizou ao longo da história; e no terceiro capítulo demonstraremos como isso reflete na arquitetura jesuítica no Brasil. No quarto capítulo verificamos porque a cruz reguladora dos pátios e das quadras foram aplicados no Brasil e de que forma isso foi feito. Concluímos que a arquitetura dos jesuítas foi um lócus onde o modelo cultural, civilizador e educador implantado era o aristotélico-tomismo mesclado aos novos métodos modernos e inacianos tal como os Exercícios Espirituais, as Constituições Inacianas e a Ratio Studiorum, onde seu canteiro e seu desenho foram formas e meios de alcançar o objetivo maior que era tornar o indígena um cristão, a partir da catequese, e um homem, aos moldes europeus. E que no Brasil, entre 1549-1759, a santa linha reta, quadrada, armada, racional e ordeira, da cruz, foi o princípio norteador da concepção, espaço e elementos de uma arquitetura moderna, em quadra, como meio de domínio, conquista e conversão.This work was born of a photographic discourse, that is, the photograph not only as a research tool, but also as a visual discourse, retranslates text in images, and revealed in the cross and the court are the hallmarks of the company\'s architecture Of Jesus. In the first chapter we intend to demonstrate that the cross is the guiding principle of the symbology of the Jesuits, to present who they were, what they wanted, and why they came to Brazil in the early days of the first assemblages and systems. In the second chapter we intend to demonstrate how the cross is a regulatory route that led to the patio and the court, and what it symbolized throughout history; and the third chapter will demonstrate how this reflects in Jesuit architecture in Brazil. In the fourth chapter we see because the regulatory cross the courtyards and the court were applied in Brazil and how this was done. We conclude that the architecture of the Jesuits was a locus where the cultural model, civilizing and deployed educator was the Aristotelian-Thomism merged to new and modern methods such as the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises, the Ignatian Constitutions and the Ratio Studiorum, where your site and its design They were ways and means to achieve the main objective which was to make the Indian a Christian from the catechism, and a man, the European way. And in Brazil, between 1549-1759, the holy straight, square, armed, rational and orderly, the cross, was the guiding principle of design, space and elements of modern architecture, on the court, as a means of domination, conquest and conversion.

Full textAbstract:
Né à Lyon dans une famille d’artistes peintres et entré dans la Compagnie de Jésus en 1590, Étienne Martellange (1596-1641) eut une carrière exceptionnelle à laquelle rien ne le destinait pourtant. Il devint en effet le principal architecte visiteur de sa congrégation en France, un concepteur et un organisateur remarquable de même qu’un prolixe dessinateur. Durant près de quarante-trois ans, il voyagea sans cesse dans quatre des cinq provinces jésuites du royaume où il travailla à la réflexion, la construction, l’aménagement et le décor de plus de trente maisons et églises de la Compagnie, de même qu’en dehors de celle-ci. À l’aide d’un ensemble de trois-cent-soixante-neuf documents, plans, coupes, élévations, vues de villes et de monuments, lettres et mémoires rassemblés au cours des recherches dans diverses institutions et dépôts d’archives français et étrangers -parmi lesquels quarante-trois inédits-, cette étude envisage de présenter successivement qui était frère Étienne, quelles furent ses activités et quel fut son rôle dans le renouveau de l'architecture de son temps ainsi que dans la naissance de ce qui deviendra à la fin du Grand Siècle le "classicisme à la française"Born in Lyon in a painters family and entered the Society of Jesus in 1590, Étienne Martellange (1596-1641) had an outstanding career in which nothing yet the intended. He became in fact the main architect visitor to his congregation in France, a designer and an outstanding organizer as well as a prolific draftsman. For nearly forty-three years he traveled incessantly in four of five Jesuit provinces of the kingdom where he worked for reflection, construction, layout and decor of more than thirty houses and churches of the Company, and that 'outside thereof. Using a set of three-sixty-nine documents, plans, sections, elevations, views of cities and monuments, letters and memories collected during research in various institutions and deposits of French and foreign archives -among whom forty-three unpublished-, this study intends to present successively who was brother Étienne, what were its activities and what was his role in the revival of the architecture of his time and in the birth of what would become the end of the Grand Siècle "French classicism"

Antônio Vicente Mendes Maciel antes de se estabelecer na Bahia, conta a tradição oral, tinha uma promessa a cumprir; erguer vinte e cinco igrejas em terras distantes do seu torrão natal – o Ceará. As informações acerca de Antônio Conselheiro história foram as dos últimos quatro anos enquanto líder fundador da comunidade do Belo Monte e provocador do conflito fratricida que exterminou toda nação belomontense: a Guerra de Canudos. Entretanto, pouco se sabe e se divulgou sobre a vida pregressa do beato no período que vai de 1874 até a fundação do arraial canudense, período de maior atuação como construtor e restaurador de obras pias. Também, quase nada se discutiu sobre os seus seguidores, suas produções culturais tais como: crenças e devoções religiosas, festas, artes plásticas, arquitetura, dentre outras. Sobre o Antônio Vicente Mendes Maciel construtor e restaurador, nos sertões da Bahia, praticamente nada se pesquisou, o que veio a contribuir para o esquecimento e aniquilamento de formidáveis exemplares de sua lavra. Sendo assim, o presente trabalho, através de pesquisas realizadas em campo, buscou por intermédio de fontes orais e consultas em documentos tais como: cartas, jornais, fotografias, bem como nas obras de cronistas, jornalistas, poetas, etc., reconstituir e rememorar a partir de imagens oitocentistas exemplares já destruídos, bem como divulgar as obras de arquitetura religiosa presididas por Antônio Conselheiro e sua gente que ainda se encontram intactas, porém mergulhadas no esquecimento. Por outro lado, buscou-se, também, revelar algumas construções que ganharam mais visibilidade a partir dessa pesquisa, pois, antes, foram sequer apontadas como pertencentes ao “Povo da Companhia” (povo conselheirista). A obra artística: material e imaterial consolidada pelo beato Antônio Conselheiro e seu séquito constitui-se em uma grande fonte histórica do episódio extremamente tenso ocorrido no sertão da Bahia, e num riquíssimo material para os variados diálogos com o passado. Nesse sentido, evidenciar um Antônio Conselheiro, arquiteto popular, decorador, restaurador, fundador de cidades, enquanto sujeito de seu tempo, dos desejos de sua época, das aspirações de sua geração e sentimentos religiosos, nos obrigará a ver, também, os seus adeptos, não como jagunços e fanáticos, mas como agentes construtores de valores sociais e estéticos, bem como produtores de histórias e memórias.

Full textAbstract:
Esta dissertação estuda a urbanização do sertão nordestino entre os séculos XVII e XIX, vinculada ao diálogo que chamamos de curral de reses e curral de almas. Curral de reses tece as questões do fenômeno urbano no interior do Nordeste açucareiro, no que dizia respeito ao papel exercido pela pecuária extensiva no povoamento, na posse da terra e no desenvolvimento de aglomerados urbanos criados ao longo dos caminhos elaborados pelo gado. As reses tangidas do litoral devassaram o hinterland nordestino, criando aqui, ali e além caminhos, desmistificando o desconhecido. Posteriormente, essas trilhas foram usadas pelas autoridades coloniais e clericais para erguer aldeamentos missioneiros - currais de almas -, visando o bem material e espiritual da Igreja e da Ordem de Cristo e a conversão dos nativos. Curral de almas busca esclarecer a ação da Igreja Católica, unida ao Estado português, no que cerce a fixação e congregação tanto do índio tapuia como dos sertanejos nômades (que \"vadiavam\" pelo território), primeiramente em aldeamentos missioneiros, depois em núcleos urbanos estrategicamente locados no território. Focalizamos o trabalho missionário dos jesuítas, capuchinhos e oratorianos na elaboração de reduções religiosas principiadas a partir da segunda metade do século XVII. Selecionamos a cidade pombalina de Oeiras (PI) e as vilas de índios Monte - Mor o Novo da América (CE) e Crato (CE) como estudos de caso, no intuito de analisar a influência da pecuária, dos caminhos do gado, das determinações provenientes de Lisboa e do papel eclesiástico da igreja em seus traçados intraurbanos.This dissertation analyzes the urbanization process in the Brazilian northeastern hinterland between the 17th and the 18th centuries as connected to the so called Curral de Reses (Cattle Corral) and Curral de Almas (Souls\' Corral). Curral de Reses (Cattle Corral) investigates the several aspects of urbanization in the sugar-producing Northeast, relating it to the role of extensive cattle ranges in the process of population growth, to the land ownership and to the development of hamlets alongside the herding trails. The herds pushed from the coast, broke through the Brazilian northeasterner hinterland, creating hither, thither and yonder new pathways, therefore demystifying the unknown. Later in time, these trails were used by colonial and clerical authorities to start missionary settlements - \"Currais de Almas\" (Souls\' Corrals)- that aimed at the material and spiritual welfare of the Church and the Order of Christ and the conversion of the native peoples. \"Curral de Almas\" investigates the activity of the Catholic Church associated to the portuguese government as the \"Tapuia \" native people and the itinerant cowboys (who \"bummed\" around the land) settled and congregated at first in missions and later in strategically located urban centers. Another focal point has been the investigation of the missionary work of Jesuit and Capuchin friars as well as \"The Congragation of the Oratory\" in the construction of religious settlements as early as the second half of the 17th century. The town of \"Oeiras\" (PI) -created by the Marquis of Pombal- and the Indian villages \"Monte-Mor o Novo da América\" (CE) and \"Crato\"(CE) were selected as case studies, attempting to analyze the influence of cattle industry, herding trails, determinations from Lisbon and the church in the planning of the urban center.

Full textAbstract:
During the twentieth century, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints altered its policy of gathering converts to “Zion,” a centralized location in the western United States, instead encouraging permanent Mormon settlement throughout the world. In order to achieve a dispersed global membership, the Church constructed regional buildings necessary to facilitate the fundamental socioreligious aspects of the faith. Temples provided exclusive ritual space, helping preserve a distinctive form of worship among diverse religious populations. Meetinghouses furnished community space for weekly spiritual worship, religious instruction, ecclesiastical administration, and social activities, enabling connection among other believers as well as non-Mormon visitors.
Chapter 1 focuses on the central role of temple-building in Mormon Zion-building; without a regional temple, a Mormon landscape was incomplete and therefore perpetually transient. The second and third chapters explore the under-scrutinized role of meetinghouses in Mormon Zion-building. Chapter 2 examines the form and function of meetinghouses, giving attention to stylistic modernization and the evolving multiuse social hall turned basketball gymnasium. Chapter 3 chronicles the evolution of the Church architecture program, which relied heavily upon standardization and branding during the final half of the twentieth century. Chapter 4 observes the construction of the Mormon cultural landscape in Washington D.C. that helped mend the contentious past between the Church and the federal government. Chapter 5 studies the construction of meetinghouses and a temple in Greater Boston, which afforded access to the intellectual and economic opportunities of the Eastern Establishment. Chapter 6 serves as a concentrated lens into Mormon landscapes of training and education in Provo, Utah.
Together, these six chapters reveal the modern Mormon landscape as one that achieves relative uniformity across a worldwide Church membership and hard-won acceptance within the American religious landscape. The basic programs for modern temples and meetinghouses demonstrate their unique roles in the balancing act of belonging to larger communities as a religious minority while retaining a discernible identity. This dissertation argues that the Church adopted a corporate strategy to efficiently expand into non-Mormon landscapes, maintain control over religious programming, and preserve a resilient yet adaptable socioreligious identity among its membership.

This diploma thesis called The Jesuit Arquitecture in South America focused on Andean area is treating the jesuit arquitecture in South America and it is focused on the arquitecture in towns in The Andean Area, now the states of Beru, Bolivia, Ecuador and Colombia. My final work has an intention to provide a summary of this fascinating part of the colonial history of art of Latin America. I tried to deal with the part of the jesuit history from the arrival of members of the Society of Jesus in the end ot the XVI. century to their expulsion in the year 1767. The content of this thesis is to present the jesuit arquitecture and to present their caracteristics and diferences from the european baroque arquitecture. I wanted to speak about the forms and technologies of the jesuit works and to compare them, to compare the jesuit buildings, which I am dealing with, between them and they are comparated with the itailan jesuit church called Il Gesù. At the end, I included the actual situation of the jesuit building in The Andean Area.

Summary This study will discuss the evolution of the gathering space of the True Jesus Church (TJC) in Taiwan based on the TJC’s development since her establishment, elaborating the TJC chapels’ spatial connotations through time based on the contemporary personalization of religion and the conventional notion of Christian services. In 1917, the TJC was founded thanks to the localization of Christianity and the Charismatic Movement. In 1926, she was then introduced by the members from the Presbyterian Church in Taiwan to revolutionarily rise against the Mission as an indigenous church. Though the TJC aimed to rebuild the church in the 1st century, her theological point of view originating from the Pentecostalism, her embrace of contemporary democracy, and the conventions from the Protestantism made her one of the New Religions blended with essences from multiple denominations in the 20th century. Because the early members of the TJC mostly came from the Presbyterian Church, the TJC duplicated their experience and thus had a similar organization structure to that of the Presbyterian Church. As to the ways to hold church services, the TJC moderately combined the Protestantism’s rigid order- and organization-oriented traditions with the Pentecostalism’s open-mindedness. Consequently, the TJC’s worship services manifested both the exegetical preaching and the pursuit of the Holy Spirit, and the corresponding worship spaces were developed. Nonetheless, because TJC elevates the Bible as the only standard, the issues related to religious architectures were neglected. This resulted in the lack of detailed design specifications of the TJC’s gathering space despite her distinctive theological perspective and exclusivity. Quite a few opportunities to develop a unique gathering space surfaced but soon disappeared eventually. Key words: True Jesus Church, Pentecostal Movement, Pentecostal convention, personalization of religion.

Full textAbstract:
A Companhia de Jesus foi uma ordem religiosa Católica que, tendo sido criada em meados do século XVI, se distinguia das restantes devido aos seus métodos de conversão através do ensino. Para este efeito, os seus membros, os Jesuítas, criaram diversos colégios em todos os países onde tinham influência, incluindo Portugal, onde foi aberto o Colégio de Santo Antão em Lisboa. Apesar de já se tratar de uma matéria existente desde o início do século XVII, é especulado que o ensino da Arquitetura Militar em Portugal ganhou bastante relevância com o começo da Guerra da Restauração da Independência em 1640, devido à necessidade do país se defender contra a ameaça Espanhola, sendo que a disciplina continuou a ser valorizada por futuros monarcas, que pretendiam evitar que Portugal perdesse a sua independência novamente. Esta dissertação pretende estudar o ensino da disciplina no Colégio de Santo Antão através da análise de um importante documento que foi redigido por Luís Gonzaga, padre jesuíta e professor no Colégio, para orientar as suas aulas sobre Arquitetura Militar, assim como o contexto Português e Europeu no qual este documento foi escrito, como forma de entender a quantidade de conhecimento que já existia sobre esta disciplina em Portugal no final do século XVII.The Society of Jesus was a catholic religious order that, having been created in the middle of the 16th century, distinguished itself from the rest with their method of conversion through education. To accomplish this, its members, the Jesuits, created several colleges in countries where they had influence, including Portugal, where the College of Santo Antão was opened. Though already an existing subject since the beginning of the 17th century, it is speculated that the teaching of Military Architecture gained a lot of relevance with the beginning of the Portuguese War of Independence in 1640 due to the necessity that the country had to defend itself against the Spanish threat, though the discipline continued to be highly valued by future monarchs, who sought to prevent Portugal from losing its independency again. This dissertation’s goal is to study the teaching of this discipline in the College of Santo Antão through the analysis of an important document that was used by Luis Gonzaga, a Jesuit priest and professor in the College, to guide his classes on Military Architecture, as well as the Portuguese and European context in which the document was written, as a way of understanding the amount of knowledge that existed regarding this discipline in Portugal at the end of the 17th Century.

Orientação: Ana Moya PelliteroA presente dissertação, desenvolve-se a partir da importância da palavra falada, para os homens como elemento de união, intercâmbio de conhecimentos e de relações interpessoais.Também na sua relação com espaços sagrados, que acontece na transmissão da tradição oral e na proclamação da palavra escrita especialmente na liturgia. Este trabalho reflete sobre a reabilitação da Igreja Nossa Senhora do Amparo,edifício religioso, construído junto a uma capela já existente, num bairro dos anos 70, na cidade de Portimão. A presente dissertaçãotem como objetivo melhorar o seu funcionamento programático, aspetos visuais arquitetónicos e simbólicos e por último melhorar o entendimento da Palavra Sagrada no conceito de “ Igreja salão”. Na presente dissertação será tratado dois tipos de intervenção: uma em que o papel da cobertura altera completamente a imagem do edifício e uma segunda onde a cobertura se integra com a identidade arquitetónica do edificado existente. O objetivo da presente dissertação será melhorar a forma do espaço sagrado da Igreja Nossa Senhora do Amparo para assim permitir uma melhor experiência no encontro com o transcendente e com o outro.
The present dissertation is developed based on the importance of the sacred Spoken Word. For people the spoken word is an element of union, an exchange of knowledge and personal relationships. Also in its relation with sacred spaces which takes place in the transmission of the oral tradition and in the proclamation of the Written Word especially in the liturgy. This work reflects on the rehabilitation of the church of "Nossa Senhora do Amparo", a religious building built next to an existing chapel, in a neighborhood of the seventies, in the city of Portimão. The present dissertation aims to improve the functional program, and the architectural and symbolic visual aspects of the church, including the improvement of the understanding of the Holy Word in the concept of "Hall Church". In the present dissertation will be treated two intervention approaches: one in which the role of the roof design changes completely the building's image and a second one where the roof style is integrated within the architectural identity of the new building rehabilitation. The purpose of the present dissertation aims to improve the shape of the sacred space of "Nossa Senhora do Amparo" church thus enabling a better experience of the encounter with the transcendent and with the mystical other.

K. I. Dientzenhofer in the service of Society of Jesus Abstract The Diploma Thesis aims to map the famous Jesuit religious buildings arising in the Czech kingdom by the hands of Kilian Ignac Dientzenhofer, as well as some smaller foundations or now-defunct constructions. Firstly it is the rural residences in Liběšice and the completion of the construction in Tuchoměřice or the dispensary in Smíchov, which has been demolished in 1930. Furthermore, the Holy Mountain Steps, which were only partially implemented according to the Dientzenhofer proposal. The Thesis also includes constructions where the architect's authorship is not proven, such as the Chapel of Sts. Archangel Michael in Kozinec and Chapel of Sts. Cross in Středokluky. An important part is also the effort to put these buildings into the context of the work of the younger Dientzenhofer and to get a closer look at the perception of their clients, including the typology of the architectural order within the function.
