The repercussions of the restructuring process of the Real Patrimonio in Valencia on the Lineage of Medinaceli (1814-1837)

This article seeks to provide evidence of the impact Crown patrimonialist action had on the incomes and rights on the Valencian lords. The example of the Lineage of Medinaceli highlights the significant decline in income experienced as a consequence of the 1055 of private rights in favour of Patrimonio Real. The suppression of the monopolistic character of shops, bakeries, and mills prevented the lords from reaching advantageous prices regarding lease contracts. The patrimonial policy of the Crown affected not only the lords' interests, but 0 150 those of many town councils and assorted landowners, all of whom had managed to appropriate important royalties. This is the reason why, during the reign of Ferdinand VII, a complex conflict with multiple actors will develop.Este artículo pretende evidenciar la trascendencia que tuvo la actuación patrimonialista de la Corona sobre las rentas y derechos de los señores valencianos. Tomando como ejemplo la Casa de Medinaceli, se subraya la notable caída de la renta como con secuencia de la pérdida de los derechos privativos en favor del Real Patrimonio. La supresión del carácter monopolístico de tiendas, hornos o molinos, privará a los señores del principal atractivo que permitía alcanzar precios ventajosos en los contratos de arriendo. Pero la política patrimonio lista de la Corona no solo afectó a los intereses señoriales, también perjudicó a muchos ayuntamientos y distintos hacendados, que habían conseguido apropiarse de importantes regalías. Por esta razón, durante el reinado de Fernando VII se desarrollará un complejo conflicto con múltiples actores

Iconografia tropical: motivos locais na arte colonial brasileira

Este artigo estuda a representação visual da natureza tropical na arte sacra do período colonial brasileiro, entre os séculos XVI e XVIII, época em que as artes visuais do país se desenvolveram no contexto do barroco introduzido pelos missionários católicos. Foi na decoração das igrejas que apareceram algumas das primeiras representações artísticas de elementos da natureza local, notadamente as frutas tropicais, produzindo novas combinações junto à tradicional ornamentação fitomórfica europeia, constituída de folhas de acantos e vinhas. Após um levantamento das ocorrências dessas manifestações da temática local na decoração dos templos presentes nas regiões nordeste e sudeste do país, este trabalho aborda, nos textos dos viajantes e missionários produzidos no período, as interpretações cristãs da natureza tropical que permitiram o aproveitamento desses motivos como parte da estratégia de pregação e conversão católica por meio da alegorização moral e religiosa da natureza do Novo Mundo.This paper studies the visual representation of local nature in the sacred art developed during the colonial period of Brazilian history. In this period, between the XVIth and the XVIIIth centuries, the visual arts in the country evolved in the context of the Baroque introduced by Catholic missionaries. It was in the decoration of the churches in which the first representations of aspects of local nature, mostly the tropical fruits, appeared in Brazilian visual arts, producing new combinations together with the traditional European phytomorphic ornamentation of acanthus leaves and grapes. This research draws upon texts written by travellers and missionaries during the period to demonstrate how the Europeans interpreted and represented tropical nature and used these representations as part of the Catholic preaching strategy by means of moral and religious allegorization of the New World nature

Declive y liquidación de los dominios valencianos de la Casa de Medinaceli. La crisis del Antiguo Régimen en los estados señoriales de Segorbe, Dénia y Aytona.

El propósito principal de la tesis doctoral es investigar la trayectoria de los estados señoriales en el País Valenciano de una de las principales casas nobiliarias de la monarquía española del Antiguo Régimen, con la finalidad de mejorar nuestros conocimientos sobre los procesos de transformación social ocurridos en los siglos XVIII y XIX. Pero este análisis de los señoríos valencianos no se entiende aislado y descontextualizado de la casa aristocrática a la que pertenecieron. Más bien al contrario. Se intenta clarificar la relación dialéctica entre casa y estados señoriales, valorando, entre otras muchas cuestiones, la importancia de las rentas valencianas en el conjunto de la casa, la incidencia que las reformas administrativas de la casa ducal tuvieron sobre estos territorios y cómo respondieron sus habitantes, o planteando en qué medida estos dominios valencianos contribuyeron al saneamiento financiero de la Casa de Medinaceli en el segundo tercio del siglo XIX.This PhD Thesis aims to analyze the development of the noble Manors in the Valencian Country and their influence over one of the main noble Houses of the Spanish monarchy in the Old Regime. This research has as a purpose to improve our knowledge about the processes of social transformation that took place during the 18th and 19th centuries. However, this analysis of the Valencian Manors cannot be understood isolated and decontextualized from the noble Houses they belonged to. Rather the contrary, it is meant to clarify the dialectical relationship between house and the noble Manors, valuing, among other reasons, the importance of the Valencian income over the house set, the influence that the administrative reforms of the ducal House had over these territories and how their inhabitants acted. Besides, this thesis tries to show up to what extent these Valencian dominions contributed in restructuring the finances of the House of Medinaceli in the second third of the 19th century

Advances in the Ultrasound Characterization Of Dry-Cured Meat Products

[EN] In this work, the feasibility of using non-contact ultrasonic techniques (air-coupled and scanning acoustic microscopy, SAM) for characterizing different dry-cured meat products was assessed. Air-coupled ultrasonic measurements were performed on vacuum packaged sliced dry-cured ham, and compared with contact measurements. The average ultrasonic velocity in dry-cured ham was 1846 +/- 49 m/s and 1842 +/- 42 m/s for air-coupled and contact measurements, respectively. The deviation (1% relative error) between both techniques was related to the influence of the heterogeneous structure and composition of dry-cured ham and the transducer focusing. The SAM was used to characterize dry-cured ham and chorizo samples. B-scan images for dry-cured ham and chorizo showed two dominant reflections from the sample, linked to reflections in the lean and fatty tissues. The results indicate that contact ultrasonic measurements could be replaced by the air-coupled technique, reducing the measuring time and the material handling. On the other hand, SAM technique allows the microscopic characterization of dry-cured meat products. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
