Resumo Neste artigo pretendo analisar o cenário literário carioca no momento de transição entre a Monarquia e a República, a partir da problematização do fato de que até agora a maioria dos estudos nos campos da sociologia, história cultural ou história social apenas exploram a atuação literária e política dos "homens de letras”, especialmente durante esse período. Proponho, portanto, uma leitura que conecta homens e mulheres de letras, centrando em Machado de Assis, Arthur Azevedo, Ignez Sabino, Maria Benedicta Cá‚mara Bormann [Délia] e Josephina Álvares de Azevedo, atuantes na imprensa feminina e na de grande circulação na Corte Imperial dos anos 1880 e na Capital Federal dos anos 1890. A imprensa é aqui compreendida como o campo no qual se estabeleceu uma rede de contatos entre esses homens e mulheres. A literatura produzida no espaço dos jornais do Rio de Janeiro promove a possibilidade da investigação dos significados de projetos políticos e literários de cunho democrático de agentes históricos, homens e, principalmente, de mulheres, que pretendiam pensar de modo crítico e propositivo o papel da literatura numa sociedade recém- egressa da escravidão e da Monarquia. Palavras- chave: Imprensa Brasileira de Fins do Século XIX. Gé‚nero. Transição do Império para República.Abstract In this article I intend to analyze the national literary scene in the moment of transition between the Monarchy and the Republic, from the problematization of the fact that until now most of the studies in the fields of sociology, cultural history or social history only explore the literary and political action of "men of letters", especially during this period. I propose, therefore, a reading that connects men and women of letters, focusing on Machado de Assis, Arthur Azevedo, Ignez Sabino, Maria Benedicta Cá‚mara Bormann [Délia] and Josephina Álvares de Azevedo, who are active in the women's press and in circulation in the Court Imperial in the 1880s and in the Capital Federal of the 1890s. The press is understood here as the field in which a network of contacts has been established between these men and women. The literature produced in space of Rio de Janeiro newspapers promotes the possibility of investigating the meanings of political and literary projects of a democratic nature of historical agents, both men and women, who intend to rethink in a critical and propositive way the role of literature in a newly- after slavery and the Monarchy.Key-words: Brazilian press at the end of the 19th century; Genre; Transition from the Monarchy to the Republic.

The Right

Nowadays, there are divided opinions in Bosnia and Herzegovina when it comes to further mandate of the OHR and the institution of the High Representative. However, the e nd of the mandate of the High Representative is realistically expected in the near future. The need to abolish the office of the OHR and the institution of the High Representative has been mentioned increasingly in Bosnia and Herzegovina, especially in the Republic of Srpska. The reasons for the abolition of the function of the High Representative are different between the entities in Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as among its constitutive peoples. The authority of the High Representative has been increasingly questioned.It is on that basis that questions arise more frequently whether his (High Representative) legal acts will be valid, in particular individual decisions, such as deprivation of certain rights to citizens, the right to work, political action and passive right to vote. Representatives of the international community are worried that the interested domestic political circles could set a thesis (and be successful at it) that all acts of the High Representative will cease to apply at the moment when Annex X of the General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina is ended.A number of imposed laws not yet adopted by the local legislator himself, in the event of cancellation, would actually return BiH to the original competences under the Constitution BiH, as the legal consequence. The institution of the High Representative was set up by Annex X (Agreement on Civilian Implementation of the Peaceful Solution) of the General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina.Simultaneously, bearing in mind these facts, legally speaking, Bosnia and Herzegovina can not be classified into any known form of international dependence, however, the objective situation is such that Bosnia and Herzegovina with the powers vested in the High Representative and the actions that he is taking, can be considered a state with a specific form of international dependence and a special form of guardianship.

Crimes against marriage and family are a particular group of social relation­ships that the law has defended properly in view of the high public significance and value they enjoy. At the moment they are regulated in Chapter VI, Section I, of the specific part of the Penal Code the Repub­lic of Bulgaria. The subject matter of this Statement will, however, be the legisla­tive provisions concerning these criminal­ized acts in retrospect. The purpose of the study is to show by historical method and through the comparatively legal method the development of these criminal groups during the periods of various criminal laws in Bulgaria. This will also provide a basis for reflection on possible de lege ferenda proposals. This report from a structural point of view will be divided into three distinct points, marking each of the penal laws in the Republic of Bulgaria, which were in force before 1968.

The Ideal

University education -on almost modern lines existed in India as early as 800 B.C. or even earlier. The learning or culture of ancient India was chiefly the product of her hermitages in the solitude of the forests. It was not of the cities. The learning of the forests was embodied in the books specially designated as Aranyakas "belonging to the forests." The ideal of education has been very grand, noble and high in ancient India. Its aimaccording to Herbert Spencer is the 'training for completeness of life' and ‘the molding o character of men and women for the battle of life’. The history of the educational institutions in ancient India shows a glorious dateline of her cultural history. It points to a long history altogether. In the early stage it was rural, not urban. British Sanskrit scholar Arthur Anthony Macdonell says "Some hundreds of years must have been needed for all that is found" in her culture. The aim of education was at the manifestation of the divinity in men, it touches the highest point of knowledge. In order to attain the goal the whole educational method is based on plain living and high thinking pursued through eternity.

The Moment

The moment unfolded in this book unravelled in the following decades, partly because its students moved on, partly because Lefèvre took up a controversial role in the French Reformation. But his circle’s books continued to cultivate a particular approach to learning, and especially to the cultural place of mathematics, through the sixteenth century. This epilogue picks out a specialist strand of this influence in Lefèvre’s edition of Euclid, often reprinted and used in the republic of letters. A second strand is discernible in the pragmatic stance towards the utility of mathematics held by their heirs, Oronce Fine and Peter Ramus, which came to define European culture.

History Book

This chapter discusses Book History. Drawing on the disciplinary fields of ‘analytical bibliography’ and influenced by work in Annales social history, Book History takes as its subject the cultural history and the sociology of print, and also the impact of print on the ‘thought and behaviour of mankind’ from the Gutenberg press to the present day. As books make the complicated journey from the idea to print in all its variant forms, the connections between publishing, cultural, educational, and literary institutions—and the individuals involved in these—are crucial to understanding how they emerge in print, how they are used, how they circulate, and what they mean. The chapter thus addresses the following areas of importance to the social and material histories of the Anglophone novel to 1950: the ‘glocalized’ geographies of print and trade; newspapers and local literary cultures; colonial editions; libraries, readers and writers; trade and copyright legislation.

Abstract This article is a reminder that the concept of ‘annihilation of space’ or ‘spatial compression’, often used as a shorthand for referring to the cultural or economic consequences of industrial mobility, has a long intellectual history. The concept thus comes loaded with a specific outlook on the experience of modernity, which is – I argue – unsuitable for any cultural or social history of space. This article outlines the etymology of the concept and shows: first, that the historical phenomena it pretends to describe are too complex for such a simplistic signpost; and, second, that the term is never a neutral descriptor but always an engagement with a form of historical and cultural mediation on the nature of modernity in relation to space. In both cases this term obfuscates more than it reveals. As a counter-example, I look at the effect of the railways on popular representations of space and conclude that postmodern geography is a relative dead end for historians interested in the social and cultural history of space.

Este artigo trata da representação da paisagem urbana do Rio de Janeiro no romance Quincas Borba, de Machado de Assis. Procuro argumentar que a presença da paisagem é muito efetiva neste romance, estando, porém, velada porque só pode ser vista através do subjetivismo e esquizofrenia das personagens principais, especialmente Rubião e Sofia. Sustento que Machado incorporou sua visão da sociedade na própria linguagem e representação ficcional desse romance, onde a paisagem urbana funciona como elemento oculto, que se expressa através dos efeitos que exerce sobre o comportamento ético e psicológico das personagens. Abstract This article is about the representation of the Rio de Janeiro’s urban landscape in the Machado de Assis’ novel Quincas Borba. I intend to argue that the landscape is very effective in Machado’s novel, but it is veiled because we can only see it through the subjective and schizophrenic perceptions of the main characters, specially Rubião and Sofia. I defend that Machado incorporated his own social view in the novel’s language and fictional representation. Throughout the novel, the urban landscape works as a hidden element that expresses itself through the effects on the character’s ethical and psychological behavior.

The Republic

Inhis greatest work (The Republic) the greatest thinker of his era, if not of all time, Plato, writing in one of the greatest, if not even the greatest epoch in the intellectual, artistic, and literary history of mankind, held up a mirror not only to his own age but to every age, not least our own, in the glowing radiance of his unsurpassed genius. This essay is an attempt to look on the world around us with his searchlight. Addressing on this subject a select company of educated and intelligent men and women, I discovered that several of them had attempted but had failed to read throughThe Republic. They could not see the wood for the trees, lost their way, and gave up the guest.
