Linguagens da modernidade : arquitetura residencial na década de 1920

Tese (doutorado)—Universidade de Brasília, Faculdade de Arquitetura e Urbanismo, Programa de Pós Graduação em Arquitetura e Urbanismo, 2019.Este trabalho procura analisar a arquitetura residencial produzida e divulgada em revistas especializadas durante a década de 1920 no Brasil. Inicialmente procura-se contextualizar os periódicos voltados ao campo da arquitetura, buscando localizá-los temporalmente e percebendo de que maneira os eventos políticos e os avanços técnicos influenciaram o desenvolvimento da imprensa como um todo e, consequentemente, levaram ao surgimento dos títulos especializados no país. Em seguida busca-se caracterizar as duas revistas que constituem as fontes primárias da pesquisa: Architectura no Brasil e A Casa, apontando suas particularidades, seu aspecto formal e material, assuntos recorrentes, público ao qual estavam direcionadas, etc. O universo residencial é apresentado através da análise dos dados obtidos junto às revistas: ao todo foram identificados 825 projetos, que foram categorizados a partir de seus arranjos tipológicos e elementos compositivos predominantes, de modo a oferecer um panorama quantitativo da ocorrência das diversas linguagens ao longo dos anos. Uma preocupação foi apresentar as tipologias e linguagens identificadas, elencando para tal, os estilos aos quais podem ser associadas e as particularidades que subsidiaram o agrupamento e definição das terminologias adotadas. Também é proposta uma reflexão sobre o consumo no ambiente doméstico, considerando os discursos implícitos nas propagandas veiculadas nas revistas, destacando o papel da mulher e a influência estrangeira naquele contexto. Por fim, procura-se reforçar a ideia de que aquelas residências podem ser vistas como expressão da modernidade arquitetônica, apresentado seus principais aspectos inovadores e confrontando tal argumento a outros já consagrados pela historiografia da arquitetura brasileira.Thisworkaimstoanalyzetheresidentialarchitectureproducedandpublicized in specialized magazines duringthedecadeof 1920 in Brazil.

Valle de San Patricio : preludio y inconsistencia al borde de la carretera del jaguar

Esse artigo, integrante de um estudo mais aprofundado e em desenvolvimento a respeito da Marcha para o Oeste (1938), traz um vislumbre da conformação da região compreendida como Vale do São Patrício, em Goiás. A pesquisa parte de fontes primárias pesquisadas em arquivos das cidades componentes da região e de literatura específica, contudo, fragmentada, com intuito de reunir tais dados, revelar os antecedentes, os anos preliminares, suas inconsistências e modernidades desenvolvidas à beira da conhecida popularmente como Estrada das Onças (atual BR-153). Desenvolvida a partir da Colônia Agrícola Nacional de Goiás (CANG) no ano de 1941, a região compreendida como Vale do São Patrício atraiu grandes levas de lavradores, progredindo a ocupação das terras do centro goiano, e propagando os ideais de desenvolvimentismo e integração nacional da época, compondo-se de cidades novas e de uma hierarquia urbana e social codependentes. Além disso, nela se destaca a atuação de Bernardo Sayão, engenheiro agrônomo e administrador da CANG, uma figura intrínseca à memória do Brasil Central, de forma até mitológica, como também à rodovia Belém/Brasília.This article, part of a further and in progress study about the March to the West (1938), provides a glimpse of the conformation of the region comprehended as Saint Patrick Valley, in Goiás. The resource begins from primary sources that were surveyed in files from the component cities of the zone and fragmented specific literature, in order to gather data, reveal the background, the preliminary years, its inconsistencies and modernities developed on the side of the popular known as Jaguar Road (current BR-153). Developed from Goiás’ National Agricultural Colony (CANG) in 1941, the region comprehended as Saint Patrick Valley attracted large waves of farmers, progressing land occupation in goiano center, disseminating the ideals of developmentalism and national integration of this time, composed by new cities and a new codependent social and urban hierarchy. Moreover, in it, the performance of the agronomist and administrator of CANG, Bernando Sayão, stands out. He is an intrinsic figure to the memory of Brazilian central, even mythologically, and to the highway Belém/Brasília.Faculdade de Arquitetura e Urbanismo (FAU)Programa de Pós-Graduação em Arquitetura e Urbanism

Salvador, BA, BrasilNeisseria meningitidis is a commensal bacterium of the human nasopharynx. In rare cases, it penetrates the mucosa, entering the blood stream and causing various forms of disease. Meningococcal conjugate vaccines can prevent invasive disease not only by direct effect in vaccinated individuals but also by herd protection, preventing acquisition of carriage, which interrupts transmission and leads to protection of unvaccinated persons. In 2010 in Salvador, Brazil, an outbreak of group C meningococcal disease led to a mass meningococcal serogroup C conjugate vaccination drive, targeting those <5 and 10-24 years of age. The present study aimed to estimate the prevalence of and identify factors associated with N. meningitidis carriage among adolescents from Salvador, Brazil, in the post-vaccination period. In spring 2014, we performed a cross-sectional study involving 1,200 public school students aged 11-19 years old. Oropharyngeal swabs were collected to identify N. meningitidis. Of the 59 colonized participants, 36 (61.0%) carried non-groupable N. meningitidis, while genogroup B (11.9%), Y (8.5%), E (6.8%), Z (5.1%), C (3.4%), and W (3.4%) were also detected. The overall prevalence of N. meningitidis carriage was 4.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.6-6.1%); the prevalence of N. meningitidis genogroup C was 0.17% (95% CI, 0.0-0.40%). There was no difference by age. Factors associated with carriage were having only one, shared, bedroom in the household (PR, 2.02; 95% CI, 0.99-4.12, p = 0.05); the mother being the only smoker in the home (PR, 2.48; 95% CI, 1.16-5.29; p = 0.01); and going to pubs/parties more than 5 times/month (PR, 2.61; 95% CI, 1.38-4.92; p = 0.02). Our findings show that the N. meningitidis carriage rate in adolescents from Salvador, Bahia, is low and is potentially influenced by the low prevalence of N. meningitidis genogroup C. However, continued surveillance is important to identify changes in the dynamics of N. meningitidis, including the emergence of diseases due to a non-C serogroup

Characterisation of microbial attack on archaeological bone

As part of an EU funded project to investigate the factors influencing bone preservation in the archaeological record, more than 250 bones from 41 archaeological sites in five countries spanning four climatic regions were studied for diagenetic alteration. Sites were selected to cover a range of environmental conditions and archaeological contexts. Microscopic and physical (mercury intrusion porosimetry) analyses of these bones revealed that the majority (68%) had suffered microbial attack. Furthermore, significant differences were found between animal and human bone in both the state of preservation and the type of microbial attack present. These differences in preservation might result from differences in early taphonomy of the bones. © 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved

Brazilian Flora 2020: Leveraging the power of a collaborative scientific network

International audienceThe shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. This deficit creates a significant taxonomic impediment to biodiversity research and conservation planning. The taxonomic impediment and the biodiversity crisis are widely recognized, highlighting the urgent need for reliable taxonomic data. Over the past decade, numerous countries worldwide have devoted considerable effort to Target 1 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC), which called for the preparation of a working list of all known plant species by 2010 and an online world Flora by 2020. Brazil is a megadiverse country, home to more of the world's known plant species than any other country. Despite that, Flora Brasiliensis, concluded in 1906, was the last comprehensive treatment of the Brazilian flora. The lack of accurate estimates of the number of species of algae, fungi, and plants occurring in Brazil contributes to the prevailing taxonomic impediment and delays progress towards the GSPC targets. Over the past 12 years, a legion of taxonomists motivated to meet Target 1 of the GSPC, worked together to gather and integrate knowledge on the algal, plant, and fungal diversity of Brazil. Overall, a team of about 980 taxonomists joined efforts in a highly collaborative project that used cybertaxonomy to prepare an updated Flora of Brazil, showing the power of scientific collaboration to reach ambitious goals. This paper presents an overview of the Brazilian Flora 2020 and provides taxonomic and spatial updates on the algae, fungi, and plants found in one of the world's most biodiverse countries. We further identify collection gaps and summarize future goals that extend beyond 2020. Our results show that Brazil is home to 46,975 native species of algae, fungi, and plants, of which 19,669 are endemic to the country. The data compiled to date suggests that the Atlantic Rainforest might be the most diverse Brazilian domain for all plant groups except gymnosperms, which are most diverse in the Amazon. However, scientific knowledge of Brazilian diversity is still unequally distributed, with the Atlantic Rainforest and the Cerrado being the most intensively sampled and studied biomes in the country. In times of “scientific reductionism”, with botanical and mycological sciences suffering pervasive depreciation in recent decades, the first online Flora of Brazil 2020 significantly enhanced the quality and quantity of taxonomic data available for algae, fungi, and plants from Brazil. This project also made all the information freely available online, providing a firm foundation for future research and for the management, conservation, and sustainable use of the Brazilian funga and flora
