Archive

In 2013 verwierf het Studie- en Documentatiecentrum Oorlog en Hedendaagse Maatschappij (CegeSoma) het archief van mr. Frédéric Eickhoff. Tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog verdedigde hij ongeveer 2500 verzetslieden die moesten verschijnen voor de Duitse militaire rechtbanken in bezet België. Tijdens de verwerving van dit archief doken heel wat vragen op omtrent de ontsluiting en raadpleging ervan. Een advocaat is tijdens de uitoefening van zijn beroep immers gebonden aan het beroepsgeheim. Welke beperkingen legt dit beroepsgeheim nog op met betrekking tot het archief van een advocaat na diens overlijden? Vanuit deze vraag werden dit onderzoek en de bijhorende stage uitgevoerd.
Aangezien advocatenarchieven een zeer uiteenlopende inhoud hebben en zeker niet allemaal archiefbescheiden bevatten die onder het beroepsgeheim vallen, is het in de eerste plaats nodig het type archief waarrond dit onderzoek draait goed te definiëren. Daarna wordt gekeken naar de eigenlijke inhoud van de advocatenarchieven die relevant waren voor dit onderzoek. Aan de hand hiervan werd een niet-exhaustieve typologie van archiefstukken, aanwezig in zaak- en cliëntdossiers binnen een advocatenarchief, opgesteld.
Het beroepsgeheim van de advocaat en privacybescherming zijn de twee belangrijkste aspecten van een advocatenarchief waarmee een archiefinstelling rekening dient te houden. Het beroepsgeheim van de advocaat heeft binnen de Belgische context een absoluut karakter. Dit houdt in dat het onbeperkt in de tijd blijft gelden, zelfs na overlijden van zowel de cliënt als zijn raadsman. Bovendien is het een wettelijke en contractuele verplichting die de advocaat ten opzichte van zijn cliënt en bij uitbreiding, ten opzichte van de democratische rechtsstaat, dient na te komen. In theorie mogen archiefstukken die gebonden zijn aan het beroepsgeheim dus nooit vrijgegeven worden. Binnen de rechtsleer gaan er echter stemmen op voor een versoepeling van het beroepsgeheim en bijgevolg af te stappen van dit absolute karakter. Het beroepsgeheim heeft ook niet in alle landen ter wereld een dergelijke absolute invulling. In verschillende (Europese) landen is het voor cliënten mogelijk hun advocaat te ontheffen van zijn beroepsgeheim, waarna de advocaat vrijuit mag spreken. Een dergelijke invulling van het beroepsgeheim is voor een land als België dus zeker niet onmogelijk.

This paper addresses the major challenges that large organizations face in protecting their valuable data. Some of these challenges include recovery objectives, data explosion, cost and the nature of data. The paper explores multiple methods of data protection at different storage levels. RAID disk arrays, snapshot technology, storage mirroring, and backup and archive strategies all are methods used by many large organizations to protect their data. The paper surveys several different enterprise-level backup and archive solutions in the market today and evaluates each solution based on certain criteria. The evaluation criteria cover all business needs and help to tackle the key issues related to data protection. Finally, this paper provides insight on data protection mechanisms and proposes guidelines that help organizations to choose the best backup and archive solutions.

This small article argues the case for a closer cooperation between universities and archives. In order to systematically include archival education and training into undergraduate and graduate history training, archives might be seen as laboratories, in other words: as experimental learning environments. Here expectations from different perspectives (students, archivists, and history teachers ... and maybe publishers) provide a research environment that really fosters an open, an imaginative and a fruitful historical research. As a first step all protagonists ought to learn more about different expectations, experiences, and academic standards involved.

In my thesis I focus on common resources of the concept of author in the context of philosophy and literary criticism, mostly in twentieth century. Moreover I look for specifics in particular fields and authors which are specific for them. The first chapter is an introduction to the issue and represents Fichte‘s concept of author. Next chapter introduces principles of hermeneutics and shows us the function of hermeneutic circle on the background of the text reading theory and understanding. In the third chapter are shown Roman Jakobson and Jan Mukařovský as representatives of structuralism. The first mentioned shows us a diagram of the speaker and the recipient, the second mentioned shows us on a principles of a poet. In the next chapter I introduce post-structuralism and deal with the development of terms like archive and discourse as well as the changing of the role of an author. The last chapter is focused on orality and narrative in the context of an author as a narrator. The world of fiction is also reflected.

Chapter 3 presents empirically informed analyses of a number of new public
space projects initiated first as counter-projects and counter-spaces
by a variety of community and historic preservation society interests.
It demonstrates further that, Vancouver City Council (VCC) proved
receptive to the counter-projects and provided an overarching strategic
spatial framework within which the projects on the ground were
devised and implemented. This chapter also introduces the importance
of the social animation of public space, whether through politicised
collective action or ludic enjoyment. Changing representations of space
through time are shown to have implications for spatial practice on the ground, based on differences in the way social behaviour in public
space is understood and interpreted.

Rapid Urbanisation trends worldwide has resulted in 54% of the world population living in urban areas, in 2014 from 39%, in 1980. As per 2014 Revision of World Population Prospects, UN, 2014, India & China are expected to be the largest contributors to the estimated increase in urban population till 2050. Most of the grunt of the population growth is going to be seen on big cities or mega-cities, with Asia to struggle most with estimated 60% of the megacities by 2025, most of them across India and China (13th annual edition of DemographiaWorld Urban Areas, 2017).Amongst the various challenges faced by these megacities, providing developed land (i.e. land with access toinfrastructure facilities) for future developments and city infrastructure within the limited funds available with the city…

Sarà dedicato alla presentazione dell’Archivio digitalizzato per i documenti riguardanti la Storia del Marchesato di Monferrato, l’Incontro che si terrà presso la Sala Consiliare del Comune, via Goffredo Mameli n. 10 Casale Monferrato - giovedì 23 febbraio 2017 con inizio alle ore 17,30.
L’incontro dedicato all’Archivio storico del Monferrato è organizzato dal Circolo Culturale “I Marchesi del Monferrato” con il Patrocinio del Comune di Casale Monferrato.
L’incontro sarà aperto dal saluto dell’Assessore Daria Carmi, seguirà l’intervento di Roberto Maestri.
A conclusione di un intenso lavoro, avviato nel 2011, è stato attivato il Centro di documentazione storico digitale Archivio Monferrato raggiungibile all’indirizzo www.archiviomonferrato.com – sottolinea Roberto Maestri, presidente del Circolo Culturale “I Marchesi del Monferrato” - Associazione che ha ideato il progetto realizzato dalla Linelab di Alessandria con il sostegno della Regione Piemonte, della Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Alessandria e della Fondazione CRT.
Oltre duemilacinquecento schede sono già disponibili per la consultazione. Un lavoro che permette, già oggi, di ottenere un quadro completo delle oltre cinquecento località storicamente appartenute al Monferrato e delle biografie dei suoi Marchesi e Duchi, mentre procede la schedatura degli edifici (fortificati e religiosi), delle monete, delle opere d’arte e, soprattutto, delle innumerevoli pubblicazioni (libri e saggi) che trattano tematiche legate al Monferrato. Prossimamente il Comitato Scientifico si occuperà della gestione dei regesti, degli statuti e dell’inserimento dei link dei principali documenti che rinvieranno ai siti degli Istituti depositari (in primo luogo gli Archivi di Stato competenti). Si tratta di un immenso lavoro che, nei prossimi anni, permetterà al portale di contenere decine di migliaia di schede. 
Il Comitato Scientifico è composto dal responsabile Pierluigi Piano e dai collaboratori: Paolo Balbarani, Giorgio Dell’Oro, Walter Haberstumpf, Roberto Maestri, Manuela Meni, Giancarlo Patrucco, Blythe Alice Raviola, Dionigi Roggero, Sergio Schiavi. La segreteria è curata da Nadia Ghizzi, mentre Cinzia Montagna cura l’ufficio stampa e comunicazione.
L’accesso al portale consente, previa la registrazione gratuita, la possibilità di consultare tutti i materiali, in alcuni casi, liberamente scaricabili. Gli Utenti potranno interagire con il Comitato Scientifico anche utilizzando la messaggistica disponibile in ogni singola scheda; si ritiene, infatti, fondamentale fornire osservazioni e integrazioni.
Grazie al suo innovativo portale il Circolo Culturale “I Marchesi del Monferrato” rende disponibile uno strumento fondamentale, non solo per ricercatori e studenti, ma anche per promuovere turisticamente il Monferrato, accedendo a contenuti scientificamente corretti. 
“La finalità dell’Archivio è di contribuire alla crescita del territorio Monferrato in una prospettiva integrata fra ricerca scientifica e promozione territoriale – spiega Maestri -. I contenuti inseriti possono essere fruiti non soltanto in ambito strettamente scientifico, ma anche per la realizzazione di itinerari ed eventi di valorizzazione”.
L’Archivio mette a disposizione del pubblico un patrimonio di informazioni che riguardano oltre sette secoli di una prestigiosa storia, oggi più che mai attuale, considerando le opportunità che l’Europa e l’UNESCO offrono al nostro territorio.

Resumen: A partir de dos cortometrajes de 2014 de la cineasta paraguaya Paz Encina, Arribo y Familiar, este artículo se propone indagar sobre el tramado de afectos en la configuración fílmica de archivos. La cineasta pone en funcionamiento un viejo archivo sonoro, apropiándoselo para dar cuenta de formas alternativas de mostrar el sistema represivo de la era stronista. A 26 años del golpe que terminara con la dictadura instalada por Alfredo Stroessner en Paraguay entre 1954 y 1989, Encina vuelve a los denominados Archivos del Terror, una serie de documentos producidos durante la dictadura en relación con la Operación Cóndor encontrados a fines de 1992. Esto implica explorar el archivo como dispositivo para escapar a la crono-normatividad de la historiografía y los modelos hegemónicos, indagar sobre el modo en que se constituyen sus documentos y descubrir los afectos que se trafican en esa composición.

Arşiv Dünyası: DAGM'ne araştırma yapmak üzere gelen bir şahıs, kimlik fotokopisini verip, iki adet form doldurarak hemen araştırma yapmaya başlayabiliyor. Araştırma izni çıktıktan sonra da -muhtemelen ertesi günü izin çıkıyor-belge talebinde bulunabiliyor. Özellikle İstanbul dışından ve yurt dışından gelen araştırıcılar için zaman çok önemli. Milli Saraylar Hazine-i Hâssa Arşivi'nde araştırma yapmak isteyen bir şahsın izleyeceği yol nedir? Cengiz GÖNCÜ: Bizim yönetmeliğimiz, DAGM tarafından hazırlanan ve Bakanlar Kurulu tarafından onaylanıp Resmi Gazete'de yayınlanan yönetmeliğin aynıdır. Devlet Arşivleri'nin uyguladığı prosedür bizde de aynen uygulanıyor. Hatta formları bile aynıdır. Araştırmacı, Milli Saraylar Daire Başkanlığı'na araştırma konusunu belirten bir dilekçe ile müracaat ediyor. Dilekçesi Kültür ve Tanıtım Şubesi'nden bize yani Hazine-i Hâssa Arşivi'ne havale ediliyor. Olağanüstü bir durum yoksa üç veya en geç dört gün içerisinde araştırma izni çıkıyor ama biz, bürokrasideki bu zamanı da Devlet Arşivleri'nde olduğu gibi -diğer arşivleri demiyorum, çünkü diğer arşivlerden bu konuda daha hızlıyız-bir güne çekmeye gayret ediyoruz. Tabii ki bu prosedür devam ederken yani karar bir taraftan verilirken, diğer taraftan araştırıcıya aynı gün, fiili olarak katalogları taramasına ve araştırmaya başlamasına izni veriyoruz. Bunun için 3-4 gün geçmesini beklemiyoruz. Yalnız, kurum dışı araştırıcılara şu anda açık belgemiz yok, sadece defterler üzerinde araştırma yaptırabiliyoruz. Arşiv Dünyası: Hazine-i Hâssa Arşivi'nde bulunan en eski tarihli belgeniz hangisi? Arşivinizde hangi dönemlere ait ne tür belgeler veya defterler bulunuyor? Cengiz GÖNCÜ: II. Mahmud, Sultan Abdülmecid dönemi, Dolmabahçe Sarayı'nın inşasıyla ilgili belgeler var. Siyakat yazılı, Sultan Abdülmecid Dönemi'ne ait bir keşif defteri var. Sultan Abdülmecid'in kızı Fatma Sultan'ın maaş beratı var. Eski tarihli sayılabilecek belgeler bunlar. Tabii bunların bir kısmı araştırmaya daha açılmadı. Şu anda sadece defterlerimiz kurum dışı araştırmacılara açık. Sultan Abdülaziz dönemine ait bir kısım belgelerin tasnifini yaptık, envanterini çıkarttık, önümüzdeki günlerde gerekli onayı aldıktan sonra hem kurum içinde, hem de kurum dışında araştırmaya açacağız. Arşiv Dünyası: Sultan Abdülaziz Dönemi'ne ait ne kadar belgeniz bulunuyor? Cengiz GÖNCÜ: Sultan Abdülaziz Dönemi'ne ait belgeler 50 zarfa yaklaştı. Zarftan kasıt, sizin anladığınız dosyadır. Özellikle Pertevniyal Valide Sultan'ın yazışmaları, yardımları, onun dairesine yapılan harcamalarla ilgili yazışmalar var. Bu zarfların içerisinde yaklaşık 200 adet belge bulunmakta. Arşiv Dünyası: Hazîne-i Hâssa Arşivi'nde ne tür belge çeşitleri vardır? Osmanlı Arşivi'nde bulunan fonlarda mesela Sadaret fonunda her türlü belge bulabilmeniz mümkün. Ama Tapu Kadastro Arşivi'nde, Vakıflar Arşivi'nde belli konularda belgeler var. Belge türlerini araştıran kişiler açısından bakmaya çalıştığımızda Hazîne-i Hâssa'nın kendi içerisinde üretilen belge çeşitleri nelerdir?

The article provides an overview of the archive of J. G. Ballard, acquired by the British Library in 2010. The successive drafts of Ballard’s novels, in manuscript and typescript, comprise the majority of the archive, with the exception of Ballard’s first novel (The Wind from Nowhere) and The Unlimited Dream Company. Ballard’s many short stories, including The Atrocity Exhibition, are not present in the archive, although the papers include an unpublished story, in draft, set in Vermilion Sands. The archive is a rich textual resource, spanning synopses to final texts, which reveals the decisions of composition and indicates the development of Ballard’s distinctive prose style. The article discusses the process of composition, illustrated by textual examples, with particular reference to passages from the autograph manuscript of Empire of the Sun.

La archivística 1 ya como técnica, disciplina o ciencia, 2 está regulada por la ley 594 del 2000 en el territorio colombiano. Este quehacer tiene una serie de preceptos bases que fundamentan la profesión y sin los cuales sería imposible la consecución del oficio. Por consiguiente, vamos a aclarar términos (teóricos-prácticos) primordiales y relacionados como son: el respeto de los fondos, el principio de procedencia y el ciclo vital de los documentos.

هدف از این مقاله چگونگی و نقش کاربرد فناوری اطلاعات در آرشیو است.
روش / رویکرد پژوهش: در این مقاله با تکیه بر منابع کتابخانه ای و با روش توصیفی تحلیلی به بررسی کاربرد فناوری های جدید اطلاعاتی در آرشیو پرداخته است. یافته ها و نتایج: یافته ها حاکی از آن است که رشد فناوری اطلاعات و ارتباطات در طول سال های اخیر مسیرهای جدیدی برای حفاظت و نگهداری از منابع به روی بشر گشوده است. بدون وجود زیرساخت های مناسب، دسترسی وانتقال اطلاعات با موانعی روبرو می شود، اما امروز با کاربرد آی سی تی اطلاعاتی که به این اشکال ایجاد و نگهداری شده اند، رقمی شده و در نرم افزارها و سامانه هایی ذخیره می گردند که نه تنها سهولت و سرعت دسترسی به آنها را فراهم کرده بلکه حفاظت از آنها را نیز ارتقا داده است.

Artykuł stanowi analizę długofalowego projektu Karoliny Grzywnowicz zatytułowanego Każda pieśń zna swój dom (2018–), którego celem jest gromadzenie piosenek śpiewanych przez uchodźców podczas ich wędrówki. Jak staram się dowieść, zachodzi głęboki związek między artystyczną formą archiwum, medium jakim jest muzyka oraz kondycją wygnania. W obliczu utraty geopolitycznego i materialnego kontekstu, piosenki – łączące w sobie aspekty kognitywne i afektywne – pozwalają na adaptację do zmieniających się warunków otoczenia, stając się zarazem substytutem utraconego domu i stabilizatorem zagrożonej tożsamości. Aporyczna natura archiwum mówi z kolei tyleż samo o pielęgnowaniu pamięci, co o przemocy zapomnienia. Afekt i archiwum spotykają się zwłaszcza wówczas, gdy mowa o prawach człowieka, migracjach i inkorporowanej pamięci, a także o radzeniu sobie z traumą, opresją i wykluczeniem. W tej perspektywie, artystyczne archiwum piosenek wygnania nie tylko umożliwia poszerzenie horyzontu pamięci kulturowej, lecz działa również na rzecz epistemicznej sprawiedliwości tworząc soniczną przestrzeń dla uniwersalnej wspólnoty słuchaczy – świadków moralnych.

This paper discusees an ongoing project Every song knows its home (2018–) by Polish artist Karolina Grzywnowicz. The aim of the project is to collect songs sung by the refugees during their wandering. I argue that there exists a deep convergence between the artistic form of the archive, the medium of music and the condition of the exile. In the face of lost geopolitical and material context, songs which merge affective and cognitive aspect of human attitude towards the surrounding reality, are substitute of a home and preserve endangered identity. The aporic nature of an archive refers to the cultivation of memory as much as to the violence of forgetting. Affect and archive meet exactly in relations to the issues connected with human rights, migration and incorporation of memory, they play a substantial role in the processes of dealing with trauma, oppression and exclusion. With her artistic archive of songs, Grzywnowicz not only includes them in the area of culture by broadening the horizon of cultural memory, but also advocates epistemic justice creating a sonic space for universal community of listeners – moral witnesses.

"Megaleh Temirin (Revealer of Secrets), ed. Jonatan Meir, Three volumes, Mosad Bialik, Jerusalem

Megaleh Temirin (Revealer of Secrets), first published in Vienna in 1819, is one of the sharpest and wittiest pieces of Jewish literature written in the first half of the nineteenth century, and is perhaps the most important piece of Hebrew prose composed before the stories of Mendele Mocher Seforim. A sly and complex story deriding Hasidism and Hasidim, it is told through the correspondence between the beadles of Hasidic courts and contemporary rabbis, and it presents a dark picture of  avaricious frauds and swindlers whose main concern was control over territory and the souls of believers, a goal achieved by beguiling the authorities and attacking all opponents. Perl lends his book a ‘Hasidic’ feel both in its physical design and in its language, presenting a Maskilic version of In Praise of the Ba’al Shem Tov that lays Hasidism bare so that no reader will ever be able to look at that, or any other Hasidic book, in the same way again. In addition to the book’s satiric sting, which would have been enough to bring its readers a dual pleasure, Perl’s hints at contemporary people and places, hidden within anagrams and numerological tricks. With the unraveling of these clues, which also include the use of actual Hasidic sources, the book is a valuable, contemporary view of historical reality. A meticulous reading of the book may therefore open a window on the hidden worlds of Hasidism and the Haskalah at the start of the nineteenth century.


The first volume (Imagined Hasidism) serves as an introduction to the complex satirical writings of Josef Perl of Tarnopol (1773-1839). At the center of the book stands an analysis of the satires, Megaleh Temirin (1819) and Bochen Tzadik (1838), including a systematic treatment of the ‘characters’ in the central works and a discussion of the dozens of manuscripts to be found in the Perl Archive in Jerusalem. Perl’s writings are analyzed here in the fuller context of Hebrew and Yiddish literature in general and Maskilic and Hasidic literature in particular, as well as other polemical writings and governmental records critical of Hasidism. The study thus presents a complex and nuanced picture of the relationship between literature and history, between the anti-Hasidic reports and the more complicated historical reality, and lays the groundwork for further research into the genre of nineteenth-century Maskilic satire.

The second and third volumes (Megaleh Temirin) present for the first time an annotated edition of Megaleh Temirin. It is based on the first edition and the scattered manuscripts and it includes a comparison to its Yiddish translation. The book is accompanied by appendices on its origins and contents, including fundamental treatments of several passages: an explication of the encoded names, the Hasidic sources used by the author, and the variants found in the manuscripts and in the only edition of the book in Yiddish.

The editor of the book, Professor Jonatan Meir, teaches in the Goldstein-Goren Department of Jewish Thought at Ben-Gurion University. He has published several articles on the Haskalah of Eastern Europe, Hasidism, and a number of varied topics in twentieth-century Kabbalah.

Every year, Europe’s museums, archives and libraries and Member State Governments expend considerable time, effort and resources to digitise their tremendously rich and diverse Collections, both to aid long-term preservation and to drive new models of public engagement.

The purpose of this study has been to conduct a thorough investigation of the costs associated with digitising different types of material in different types of cultural heritage institution. The objective has been to arrive at a set of reasonable projected costs
for the Digitisation of Europe’s cultural heritage.

It should be recognised from the outset that there can be no single definitive answer to this question. Digitisation is a process, and as with any process the actual cost depends both on the organisational context, the complexity of the material and the sophistication of the output.

Fables d’archives. Effacement, oubli, infidélité

Fables d’archives explore la fiction qui habite notre rapport au temps et la performance du récit pour en prolonger le lien avec notre passé. Une poétique de la précarité de l’existence, de ses traces, de ses ruptures nourrissant de grands récits de permanences, de fidélité aux origines — lesquelles ? — constitutives de nos identités inquiètes, pétries d’histoires, saturées de mémoires, animées de rêves de devenirs... dans la brûlure des questions du présent.
Fables d’archives est une variation sur les relations entre mémoire et oubli, traces et effacements, fidélité et infidélité qui habitent les questions d’archives, de politique de la mémoire et d’institution des traces. «Fables» rappelle la part de fiction portée par nos attentes déléguées à l’institution de l’Archive.
Quelque chose de l’ordre de la réparation habite la quête sociale, scientifique et institutionnelle et investit le champ archivistique et mémoriel en discours, actions, programmes et célébrations. Mais ce qui importe, c’est moins la trace ou l’archive que l’événement qui les convoque et les ramène au présent. Archives, bibliothèques, livres, institutions, associations, nouveaux territoires numériques... sont animés d’une prodigieuse énergie à organiser l’oubli et l’exclusion de pans entiers de nos restes et de performer le récit d’un horizon fabuleux de l’archive sans horizon.
L’avènement archivistique serait-il l’horizon messianique de l’événement, de tous les événements des actes du vivant ? Fiction & Cie !

This artistic research reflection deals with what I call the “participatory
monument”, the intention of which is to bring members
of the public into the artwork and to openly share related experiences
with them, thus providing evidence of the existence and
potential transformative power of collective memory.

Esta comunicação busca examinar a concepção do controle de vocabulário e a utilização do vocabulário controlado como dispositivos metodológicos aplicados ao contexto dos arquivos de arquitetura, a partir de um diálogo com a Ciência da Informação. Como se sabe, o termo thesaurus etimologicamente vem do grego e do latim, significando tesouro, tendo sido usado durante muitos séculos para designar léxico, ou tesouro de palavras. Esta palavra popularizou-se a partir da publicação do Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases, de Peter Mark Roget, em Londres, 1852, cujo subtítulo expressa bem o objetivo: classsified and arranged so as to facilitate the expression of ideas and to assist in literary composition (ROGET, 1925)
O processo de indexação documental reveste-se de um profundo e cuidadoso trabalho de análise dos textos e a representação dos temas tratados por uma expressão, que pode ser alfabética ou numérica. A complexidade do processo de indexação se amplia cada vez mais, uma vez que os sistemas de recuperação da informação estão conectados em rede, não mais atendendo apenas a um público específico. Por outro lado, percebe-se que o vocabulário utilizado pelo especialista já não pertence exclusivamente a um grupo seleto de pesquisadores, na medida em que os meios de comunicação e difusão socializam esta terminologia, muitas vezes mais confundindo o leigo do que o auxiliando a compreender os fatos divulgados. Com isso, podem se perceber vários problemas de recuperação das informações devido ao uso de vocabulários livres ou motivados pela imprecisão de definição dos termos para os vocabulários controlados. A falta de padronização gera a perda de informações, pois no momento da busca somente serão recuperados os documentos que coincidentemente foram indexados pelo termo usado na busca.
Esta comunicação irá examinar, portanto, o uso de uma linguagem controlada na descrição dos acervos de arquitetura e os pressupostos teóricos e metodológicos para a concomitante criação de um Thesaurus para a área, em andamento através de financiamento do CNPq.

The Neo-Babylonian empire under the so-called Chaldaean rulers 1 lasted nearly a century, from 626 to 539 BC. It ended when Cyrus the Great conquered Babylonia and made it part of the much larger Achaemenid Persian empire. Its center and power base was southern Mesopotamia, from where it controlled large parts of the Near East. Babylon, its capital, was situated on one branch of the Euphrates River, circa 75 km to the south of the modern-day Iraqi capital Baghdad.

Este artículo presenta un diálogo entre Respiración artificial (1980), de Ricardo Piglia, y algunas ideas de Mito y archivo (1990), desarrolladas por Roberto González Echevarría. La lectura conjunta apunta a poner bajo una nueva luz la discusión acerca de la problematización del discurso de la Historia en esta novela, para examinar específicamente la contigüidad y la multiplicidad de los documentos del Archivo que figuran en la novela. El artículo parte de las propuestas críticas que diferentes investigadores han hecho acerca de Respiración artificial, así como de notas periodísticas sobre Ricardo Piglia.

This article presents a dialogue between Ricardo Piglia’s Respiración artificial (1980) and some ideas developed by Roberto González Echevarría in  Myth and Archive (1990). This combined reading seeks to shed new light on the discussion concerning the problematization of the discourse of History in the novel, in order to specifically examine the proximity and multiplicity of documents of the Archive in the narrative. This article stems from the critical studies of various scholars regarding Respiración artificial as well as journalistic notes on Ricardo Piglia.

Historic research is predominantly dependent upon access to source materials. However there are wide disparities in the archives of textbook publishers. This guide aims to redress the situation by creating a list of the archive collections of British and German textbook publishers. It provides brief information about existing archive collections and can act as a starting point for locating source material.

Historische Forschung ist vom Zugang zu Archivmaterialien abhängig. Für die Archivbestände von Schulbuchverlagen kann allerdings festgestellt werden, dass die Ausgangslage überaus disparat ist. Es ist das Ziel dieses Archivguides hier Abhilfe zu schaffen. Er listet vorhandene Archivbestände von Schulbuchverlagen aus Deutschland und Großbritannien auf, bietet weiterführende Informationen zu den Beständen und ihre Zugänglichkeit und kann somit als Startpunkt für weitere Recherchen dienen.

"Se queremos que tudo fique como está
é preciso que tudo mude."


O leitmotif da obra de Tomasi de Lampedusa, imortalizada no grande ecrã pela objectiva de Visconti, sintetiza a sua ideia central, acerca do declínio das antigas elites, em particular da aristocracia, a favor da ascensão das classes médias, a partir da segunda metade do século XIX e a forma como uma facção daquela procurou, sem sucesso, manter a sua posição.
O tema da presente dissertação é precisamente o da evolução da Aristocracia em Portugal, em concreto da Casa Palmela, no contexto do Liberalismo, com maior precisão, no período que medeia entre 1810 e 1887, datas que, como veremos, reflectem a cronologia ditada pela própria evolução da Casa e também pelos rumos da nacionalidade.


"If we want everything to stay as it is
everything must change."


The leitmotif of Tomasi de Lampedusa's work, immortalized on the big screen by Visconti's lens, sums up his central idea of the decline of the old elites, particularly of the aristocracy, in favor of the rise of the middle classes from the second half of the century, and the way a faction of it sought, unsuccessfully, to maintain its position.
The theme of this dissertation is precisely that of the evolution of the Aristocracy in Portugal, specifically of Casa Palmela, in the context of Liberalism, with greater precision, in the period between 1810 and 1887, dates that, as we shall see, reflect the chronology dictated by own evolution of the House and also by the paths of nationality.
