El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo determinar la composición del aceite y del extracto metanólico hidrofílico de las semillas de lúcuma (Pouteria lucuma), las cuales son generadas como residuos agroindustriales. Estas provienen del distrito de Chilca (ubicado en la provincia de Cañete, a 62 km de Lima), cedidas por la heladería OVNI. La metodología consiste en la obtención del extracto metanólico hidrofílico y del aceite, el primero proviene de la maceración de la semilla con metanol y remoción de la parte lipofílica con hexano, mientras que el aceite es resultado de la separación con hexano a los extractos generados por maceración con metanol y acetona de forma secuencial y por extracción con equipo Sohxlet al residuo final con hexano. Así, metabolitos como ácidos grasos libres, ácidos grasos esterificados, triterpenos lineales, triterpenos esteroidales y no esteroidales, entre otros, son identificados en las tres fracciones que comprende el aceite mediante GC-MS y se registra 851,49 ± 1,29 mg de -sitosterol y 75,42 ± 1,02 mg de estigmasterol por cada 100 g de aceite. Mientras que con el GC-FID y estándares de FAMEs se reporta la presencia de los ácidos oleico, palmítico, esteárico y (9E)-octadecenoico, quienes conforman el 30 % del aceite. El contenido de fenoles totales es de 1130,63 ± 11,89 mg EAG/100 g de semilla seca y de flavonoides totales de 661,23 ± 4,73 mg quercetina/100 g de semilla seca en el extracto metanólico hidrofílico. Mediante UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS, se reporta que metabolitos como aminoácidos, ácidos orgánicos, ácido gálico, una amplia gama de flavonoides, entre otros, están contenidos en el mismo extracto y con empleo del reactivo DPPH se registra que este posee una concentración inhibitoria media (IC50) a 41 g / mL. En base a los resultados se concluye que este residuo agroindustrial posee un valor agregado por explorar.<br>The aim of this work is to determine the composition of the oil and hydrophilic methanolic extract of lucuma seeds (Pouteria lucuma), which are generated as agroindustrial waste. These come from the district of Chilca (located in the province of Cañete, 62 km from Lima), donated by the OVNI ice cream shop. The methodology consists in obtaining the hydrophilic methanolic extract and the oil, the first comes from the maceration of the seed with methanol and the removal of the lipophilic part with hexane, while the oil is the result of the separation with hexane at the extracts generated by maceration with methanol and acetone sequentially and by extraction with Sohxlet equipment to the final residue with hexane. Thus, metabolites such as free fatty acids, esterified fatty acids, linear triterpenes, steroidal and non-steroidal triterpenes, among others, are identified in the three fractions comprising the oil by GC-MS and 851.49 ± 1.29 mg of -sitosterol and 75.42 ± 1.02 mg of stigmasterol per 100 g of oil. While with the GC-FID and FAME standards, the presence of oleic, palmitic, stearic and (9E) -octadecenoic acids is reported, which make up 30% of the oil. The content of total phenols is 1130.63 ± 11.89 mg EAG / 100 g of dry seed and total flavonoids of 661.23 ± 4.73 mg of quercetin / 100 g of dry seed in the hydrophilic methanolic extract. Through UHPLC-ESI-MS / MS, it is reported that metabolites such as amino acids, organic acids, gallic acid, a wide range of flavonoids, among others, are contained in the same extract and with the use of DPPH reagent it is recorded that it possesses a medium inhibitory concentration (IC50) at 41 μg / ml. Based on the results, it is concluded that this agroindustrial waste has an added value to be explored.<br>Tesis

This study focuses on two areas: alchemy (Part I) and rituals of initiation (Part II) in the works of Miguel de Cervantes, focusing on Don Quijote de la Mancha as my main case study. The first part analyses the function of alchemy and how it can be interpreted throughout the works and various literary genres of Cervantes. It will demonstrate that the texts of Cervantes contain both explicit and implicit allusions to, as well as different aspects of alchemy, such as operative and spiritual alchemy and how these are ultimately used by Cervantes as a means of expression. The author draws from this rich source and modifies these means of expression in order to achieve various results: sometimes with wit or in relation to fraud; at other times it focuses on inner alchemy relating to chivalry in what I have called spiritual chivalry, which has the aim of self-improvement and ultimately, gnosis.  Regarding the chivalric rituals of initiation, according to this investigation chivalry serves as both satire and representation of the alchemical process in the case of Don Quijote, which finds its key moments during the rituals. In this sense alchemy and chivalry are studied as two sides of the same coin, in which the search for something higher, an object (the philosopher stone, the beloved), subjects the protagonist to continuous transmutations and puts him in contact with the transitory, that is, liminal states, people and spaces. From this perspective Don Quixote de la Mancha is built upon liminal poetics. My approach, which follows the tenets of analogical hermeneutics, is included within the framework of the Western Esotericism Studies. The 16th and 17th centuries were a fertile age for alchemy throughout Europe. In Spain, alchemy and other esoteric disciplines co-existed with the Spanish Inquisition and its body for the control of ideas and texts: censorship. By being ambiguous and putting into dialogue different ideas of alchemy, Cervantes not only allowed readers to reach their own conclusions, he also protected his work from censorship.

Aquesta tesi doctoral analitza l’evolució del sector de les arts gràfiques a Barcelona durant la segona meitat del segle XIX, moment en què va passar de ser una manufactura a ser una indústria, centrant-nos en els seus protagonistes: els establiments d’impremta i de litografia. Es tracta d’una tesi basada fonamentalment en fonts de caràcter primari que estudia l’evolució del sector des de dos vessants. D’una banda, a nivell general com a sector, analitzant el seu desenvolupament i configuració dins del panorama industrial de la ciutat de Barcelona. I de l’altra, a nivell individual, a partir de l’estudi individualitzat de les característiques principals de cada una de les cases impressores de Barcelona que hem pogut identificar i documentar. L’estudi general del sector queda recollit en el bloc II, en el qual es determina i analitza la seva composició, la seva activitat i la seva presència dins del teixit industrial de la ciutat amb l’objectiu de quantificar el creixement experimentat durant la cronologia estudiada. D’una banda, s’estudia el grau de mecanització experimentat pel sector a partir de l’anàlisi i la descripció dels tallers d’arts gràfiques de Barcelona pel que fa a la maquinària existent i a les instal·lacions de les què disposaven les principals cases de la ciutat. Per altra banda, s’estudia als professionals de l’ofici per tal de determinar les seves tasques, la seva posició dins dels tallers i, també, les seves condicions laborals, tant salarials com higièniques i sanitàries. Cal remarcar que dins aquesta anàlisi dels professionals s’hi inclou una aproximació a l’estudi de gènere a partir de l’estudi de la presència de la dona dins del sector de les arts gràfiques, tant en la posició de propietària com en la de treballadora. En darrer terme, s’analitzen les diferents vies per les quals difonien la seva activitat amb l’objectiu de posar de manifest com es mostraven davant de la societat del moment, tant a nivell individual, a partir de de la seva pròpia publicitat impresa –els anuncis a la premsa i els impresos publicitaris–; com a nivell de sector, amb la publicació de revistes especialitzades distribuïdes dins dels cercles professionals i amb la participació a les exposicions tant nacionals com internacionals. Finalment, el bloc III, es centra en l’estudi dels establiments d’arts gràfiques de Barcelona de manera individual a partir de l’elaboració d’un directori descriptiu que recull més de 840 establiments d’impremta i de litografia documentats a Barcelona i actius durant la segona meitat del segle XIX. Cada un està descrit en forma de fitxa que no només recull informació de caràcter identificador com el nom i l’adreça, sinó que inclou altres dades rellevants com el període d’activitat documentat, la maquinària existent al taller, els establiments relacionats, la línia successòria, les guies en les quals apareix documentat, les exposicions en les quals va participar, els serveis que oferia, un apartat d’observacions i, en els casos en que ha esta possible, la reproducció d’un dels seus impresos publicitaris o anuncis.<br>This doctoral thesis analyses the evolution of the graphic arts industry in Barcelona during the second half of the 19th century, when it evolved from handwork to a mechanical industry, focusing on its protagonists: printing and lithography houses. The thesis is mainly based on primary sources, and studies the evolution of the industry from two perspectives. At the industry level, it offers an overview of the sector’s development and configuration as part of Barcelona’s industrial landscape. At an individual level, this work studies the main characteristics of each printing and lithography workshop in Barcelona that have been identified and documented. The general study of the industry is detailed in Chapter 2. This chapter determines its composition, activity, and presence within Barcelona’s industrial network in order to quantify the growth experienced during the period studied. First, the degree of mechanization of the industry is assessed by analysing the available machinery in the workshops. Second, the professionals in the field are studied to determine their tasks, their position within the workshop, and their working conditions, including a gender-based approach. Last, advertising, professional journals, and exhibitions are investigated with the aim to highlight the dissemination activities at both individual and industry levels. Lastly, Part III focuses on studying individual workshops by creating a descriptive directory of over 840 printing houses and lithography workshops which can be documented as active in Barcelona during the second half of the 19th century. Every workshop is described in file format, including not only identification data such as name and address, but also information regarding activity period, machinery and equipment owned, relationship with other workshops, succession line, references in guides, exhibitions where they participated, available services, etc.

This project has two different goals, one of them is to promote the consumption of exotic fruits with high quality. The other goal of the project is to look for the viability of turning this work project into a real business, focusing in two different channels to diversify its revenues: B2B and B2C. In order to achieve this second goal, this project aims to see the best way to commercialize this product (Lucuma powder and Pulp of Lucuma) and how to make it in an efficient way with right companies. Therefore, the project aims to create a company to commercialize the product between the producers in Peru and possibly small businesses interested in acquire the processed fruit and also individuals interested in own consumption in small quantities. This project, if successful, tries to diversify the consumption into other good organic healthy products in the long-term.

Dissertação de mestrado em Arqueologia<br>A importância do estudo do urbanismo das cidades romanas radica na informação que este nos fornece sobre os diferentes equipamentos públicos que os centros urbanos possuíam, associados à vida política, jurídica e religiosa, mas também ao entretenimento e ao espetáculo, mas, sobretudo, na capacidade que as cidades e sua evolução física possuem de documentar as transformações sociais do seu corpo cívico. Desta forma, a análise das mudanças realizadas em ruas e quarteirões, mas também em edifícios públicos e privados, possibilitam também uma melhor compreensão das alterações ideológicas, políticas, económicas e sociais das sociedades que criaram, habitaram e transformaram um determinado centro urbano. A cidade de Lucus Augusti, fundada nos finais do século I a.C. por Augusto, tem a sua origem associada à reforma administrativa realizada na Hispânia, uma vez que toda a Península Ibérica foi integrada ao Império, ao fim das Guerras Cantábricas, em 19 a.C.. A criação de cidades no NO peninsular, entre as quais se situa Lucus, surge na sequência da divisão daquela região em três conuentus iuridici, instrumento utilizado como meio de pacificar e integrar as populações indígenas. De forma a melhor compreender o urbanismo fundacional lucense, bem como sua evolução ao longo dos séculos de ocupação romana, procedemos à análise de um conjunto significativo de relatórios de intervenções arqueológicas realizadas na cidade de Lugo desde os anos 80 do século XX, enquadradas em sete zonas arqueológicas, designadamente aquelas que estão associadas às ruas da Raiña, do Progreso, dos Clérigos, San Marcos, Anxel Fole, Armanyá e Montevideo, situadas no interior do Centro Histórico de Lugo, na área intramuros da cerca baixo-imperial, estrutura que até hoje persiste na paisagem urbana daquela cidade. Por fim, propusemos uma análise comparada entre o desenho e a evolução da morfologia urbana de Lucus Augusti com os dados disponíveis sobre outras cidades romanas do NO da Península Ibérica, dando especial destaque a Bracara Augusta, capital do convento bracaraugustano, que conta com mais de 40 anos de escavações sistemáticas e estudo integrado, constituindo-se, assim, como uma referência incontornável para a compreensão dos processos de criação e desenvolvimento do urbanismo romano no NO ibérico e, por conseguinte, de grande interesse para o presente trabalho.<br>The importance of studying the urbanism of Roman cities lies not only in the information it gives us about the different public facilities that the urban centers had, associated with political, legal and religious life, but also with entertainment and spectacle, but above all in their capacity cities, and their physical evolution, have to document the social transformations of their civic body. Thus, the analysis of the changes made in streets and quarters but also in public and private buildings also allows a better understanding of the ideological, political, economic and social changes of the societies that created, inhabited and transformed a given urban center. The city of Lucus Augusti, founded in the late 1st century BC by Augustus, has its origin associated with the administrative reform carried out in Hispania, once the entire peninsula was annexed to the Empire, at the end of the Cantabrian Wars, through the creation of three conuentus iuridici in northwestern Iberia, an instrument used to pacify and integrate indigenous peoples into the Roman world. In order to better understand foundational urbanism of Lucus Augusti, as well as its evolution over the centuries of Roman occupation, we analyzed the reports of a wide range of interventions framed in seven archaeological zones, namely those associated with the streets of Raiña, Progreso, Clérigos, San Marcos, Anxel Fole, Armanyá and Montevideo, located inside the Historic Center of Lugo, in the intramural area of Late Imperial walls, a structure that still persists in the urban landscape of that city. Finally, we have proposed a comparative analysis of the design and evolution of Lucus Augusti's urban morphology with available data of other Roman cities in the northwest, giving special value to Bracara Augusta, capital of the conventus bracaraugustanus, which has over 40 years of systematic excavations and integrated study, thus constituting an unavoidable reference for the present work.

Orientação: Alberto Flávio Monteiro Lopes<br>O presente estudo aborda a temática da preservação da arquitetura tradicional africana, verificando as condições sociais, geográficas, climatéricas e económicas que às influenciam e os desafios para o futuro. O local deste estudo é a aldeia de Lucula-zenze na comuna de Tando-zinze em Cabinda, Angola. Atendendo a que o principal material usado na construção das casas dessa aldeia é a terra, o estilo aborda as particularidades desse material na construção e caracteriza quer a construção residencial, quer a organização urbanística que espelha a organização social. O estudo elaborado com base em observações no local e contacto direto com a comunidade que permitiu apontar algumas melhorias a realizar no futuro.<br>The present study addresses the theme of preserving traditional African architecture, checking the social, geographical, climatic and economic conditions that influence them and the challenges for the future. The site of this study is the village of Lucula-zenze in Tando-zinze commune in Cabinda, Angola. Given that the main material used in the construction of houses in this village is land, the style addresses the particularities of this material in construction and characterizes both residential construction and the urban organization that mirrors social organization. The study, based on on-site observations and direct contact with the community, made it possible to point out some improvements to be made in the future.

Text in Afrikaans<br>Summary in English<br>Until recently damages were only awarded in South African law for the loss of an object which was utilised for the generation of income. In Kellerman v South African Transport Services' damages were awarded for the first time for the loss of use of an object, which was used for non-business purposes. In this dissertation the writer aims to indicate that the personal loss that a plaintiff suffers by the loss of the object is so closely related to the physical possession through which it is served, that the Jaw should protect such personal interest. In such circumstances damages should be awarded in principle, irrespective of whether the plaintiff used the object for business purposes or whether he indeed hired a substitute or not. There is room in the South African law for development in the area of delictual damages for the Joss of the possibility to use a material object.<br>Private Law<br>LL.M.

The thesis deals teologic comparison of two patristic commentaries of the Sermon on the Plain from Gospel of Luke - by saint Ambrose and by saint Cyril of Alexandria. Both autors are excerpts from their commentaries of Gospel of Luke. At first are outlined life and literary work of both authors and later an analysis of both texts from the point of view of selected principal theological topics is made. After that the two theological views are compared to the Sermon on the Plain, outlining the initial idea of both autors.
