Escasa y mal documentada, la migración francesa en Chiapas durante el siglo XIX puede encontrar una veta de investigación? en los casos de Borduin y Dugelay, padre e hijo, en la ciudad de San Cristóbal de Las Casas. El primero, conocido como «francés», aunque procedente del Bajo Canadá, se convirtió desde 1839 en figura central local, entre otros aspectos, por su apreciada profesión en medio de continuos brotes epidémicos. Más de cuatro décadas después, en pleno auge de la influencia francesa en México, Diego Dugelay gozó por su parte el privilegio doble del origen de su padre y el poder social, político y económico, heredados de su madre. Además del testimonio individual ambas trayectorias, alguna vez contrastantes y complementarias, muestran también ciertos mecanismos, aspiraciones y paradojas ocurridas en Chiapas durante su primera apertura hacia los «hermanos de allende los mares». ABSTRACT Scarcely and poorly documented, the French migration in Chiapas during the 19th century may find a vein of research[*] in the cases of Borduin and Dugelay, father and son, in the city of San Cristóbal de Las Casas. The first, known as “French” although in reality originating from francophone Canada, converted after 1839 into a central local figure, among other aspects, due to his esteemed profession amidst continuous epidemic outbreaks. More than four decades later, in the boom of French influence in Mexico, Diego Dugelay for his part enjoyed the double privilege of his father’s origin and the social, political and economic power inherited from his mother. In addition to the individual testimony, both trajectories, at times contrasting and others complementary, also demonstrate certain mechanisms, aspirations and paradoxes occurred in Chiapas during its first opening toward the “overseas brothers.”

Until the beginning of the 19th century, psychiatric patients did not receive specialized treatment. The problem that was posed by the presence of psychiatric patients in the Santas Casas de Misericórdia and the social pressure from this issue culminated in a Decree of the Brazilian Emperor, D. Pedro II, on July 18, 1841. The “Lunatic Palace” was the first institution in Latin America exclusively designed for mental patients. It was built between 1842 and 1852 and is an example of neoclassical architecture in Brazil, located at Saudade Beach in the city of Rio de Janeiro. In the 1930s and 1940s, the D. Pedro II Hospital was overcrowded, and patients were gradually transferred to other hospitals. By September of 1944, all the patients had been transferred and the hospital was deactivated. Key words: psychiatry, history, madness.

I examine the relation between anxiety and the COVID-19 pandemic.  For context, I begin by sketching the rise of anxiety as a theme from the 19th century to the post-World War II era, as a mood of the individual in a world without absolutes.  Then, I characterize the current moment as the age of the anxiety of the global contagion.  Next, I examine the most general effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the individual ego, as simultaneous radical separation from and connection with others.  I proceed to juxtapose this situation with Freud’s anxiety theory, which likewise involves simultaneous separation and connection.  The social ego today thus appears, from a Freudian perspective, as in an exacerbated anxiety-state.  I claim that this exacerbation helps us understand more clearly Freud’s anxiety theory, and vice versa.  I then consider where this anxiety takes place, and so I examine the Freudian “site” of anxiety—the ego. This examination clarifies two aspects of Freud’s ego-theory: both the sense in which the Freudian ego is (post)modern, and the sense in which Freud’s linkage of anxiety with the ego is not occasional, but constitutive.  That is, the ego is the site of anxiety, in that anxiety characterizes the ego as such, because the ego is a (post) modern liminal structure.  I suggest in conclusion that the affirmation and acceptance of anxiety as a fundamental experience of the ego, and of the psyche more generally, constitutes an ethical imperative for psychoanalysis in general, and especially in the contemporary age of the global contagion.

La tradición ha hecho de la llamada Cornisa oeste de Madrid su imagen más definitoria y distintiva. El Palacio Real y el colindante convento de San Francisco el Grande son sus elementos patrimoniales más significativos. Previa a su desamortización y posterior demolición, el convento ocupaba una vasta extensión de terreno, formada por huertas, patios y claustros ajardinados, que se distribuían de manera orgánica en terrazas descendentes hacia el río Manzanares. En la actualidad un gran vacío rodea su basílica, el único vestigio conventual. Desde el siglo XIX varias controvertidas propuestas han tratado de caracterizar y revitalizar ese espacio indefinido, regenerar su degradado entorno y dar así continuidad paisajística a la Cornisa. El presente estudio pretende valorar la evolución del entorno del convento, intentando explicar el porqué de esa especie de no-lugar, mediante la comparación y revisión de la cartografía histórica, las representaciones existentes y los diferentes proyectos de intervención planteados en la zona.The tradition has made the so-named west Cornice of Madrid the most defining and distinctive image of the city. The Royal Palace and the nearby Convent of San Francisco el Grande are its most significant heritage elements. Before its confiscation and subsequent partial demolition, the convent occupied a vast extension of land, formed by orchards, patios and gardened cloisters, organically distributed on terraces descending towards the River Manzanares. Nowadays, a large empty space encircles the Basilica, which is the only remaining convent vestige. From the 19th Century onwards, several controversial proposals aimed to characterize and revitalize this undefined space, regenerate its deteriorated surroundings and thus provide landscaping continuity to the fragmented Cornice. The present study attempts to assess the evolution of the convent environment and explain the reason of this “no-place” by comparing and reviewing historical cartography, existing representations and the different intervention projects proposed for the area.

Abstract This paper addresses a specific aspect of the social and cultural life of the Luso-Chinese in Mozambique, whose first contingents came from the Chinese province of Guangdong in the second half of the 19th century. Most settled in the city of Beira. By the 1950s, the Chinese community was already well integrated into modern life in colonial Beira. The city was going through an unprecedented urban and architectural boom. At that time, the Luso-Chinese, who were essentially merchants, also began to stand out in the field of photography. Based on a multi-sited ethnography among the Portuguese-Chinese diaspora – and their family photo albums – this paper reflects on two inseparable aspects of late-colonial modernity: architecture and photography.

From the 16th to the 18th century the lute dominated the attention of European musicians, who cared little for the early guitar. Composers and musicians of the time held the tone and versatility of the lute in the highest esteem, while largely ignoring the guitar due to the relative simplicity of the existing repertoire. By the 19th century, however, the guitar had become extremely popular while the lute had disappeared almost entirely. The socioeconomic background of Europe played a key role in the fate of these two instruments; in particular, the growing economic power of the newly emergent middle class was decisive in determining the rise and fall of the guitar and lute, respectively. This presentation will compare and analyze the cultural and aesthetic antecedents that led to the acceptance of the guitar and the retrospective difficulties the European middle class had with the lute. Drawing connections between the evolving musical aesthetic and the social and economic climate of a particular period is an important undertaking as it serves to not only broaden the understanding of music and its’ history, but also to provide a unique insight into society at that time.

El ceremonial en el siglo XIX en México, era una herramienta que contribuía a establecer y consolidar lo social, resguardaba privilegios de la clase alta y legitimaba a un sector político. El ceremonial luego entonces es utilizado en ese siglo como un mensaje a través de formalidades y honores. Existen, desde luego, innumerables factores comprendidos en el concepto del ceremonial, como que es una forma de comunicación que se ocupa del protocolo, precedencias estructuradas de relaciones formales. Por lo tanto, revisaremos dos documentos de ceremonial en México en la primera mitad del siglo XIX, uno sobre el culto funerario de un presidente de México y otro relativo a los actos públicos o privados donde concurre el presidente de México.______________________________________The ceremonial in the nineteenth century in Mexico, was a tool that helped to establish and consolidate the social, protected privileges of the upper class and legitimized a political sector. The ceremonial then is then used in that century as a message through formalities and honors. There are, of course, innumerable factors included in the concept of ceremonial, as being a form of communication that deals with protocol, structured precedences of formal relationships. Therefore, we will review two ceremonial documents in Mexico in the first half of the 19th century, one on the funerary cult of a Mexican president and the other on public or private acts attended by the president of Mexico.

En estas páginas efectuamos una primera aproximación sobre los eventos aerostáticos en Buenos Aires durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX. Entendidos como espectáculos públicos inscriptos en un espacio urbano en reconfiguración, es posible advertir en la paulatina incorporación de lo aéreo cierta vocación social por interpelar a los habitantes de la ciudad. Para dar cuenta de este derrotero examinamos desde las germinales inscripciones de las montgolfieras en el imaginario local en la década de 1820 hasta la primera experiencia de globo tripulado efectuada por Bartolomé Lartet en 1856. Observamos la trayectoria de estas exhibiciones como instancias que condensan expresiones y deseos comunitarios entre los cuales es posible entrever preocupaciones de carácter social y político. En este camino los sentidos asociados al globo aerostático nos permiten ver una latente incorporación del ideario moderno basado en la novedad, la valoración de acciones temerarias y una nueva estimulación sensorial del habitante. In these pages we make a first approximation of the aerostatic events in Buenos Aires during the first half of the 19th century. Understood as public performances inscribed in an urban space undergoing reconfiguration, it is possible to notice in the gradual incorporation of the air a social vocation for questioning the inhabitants of the city. To account for this course we examine from the germinal inscriptions of the montgolfieras in the local imagination in the 1820s to the first manned balloon experience carried out by Bartolomé Lartet in 1856. We observe the trajectory of these exhibitions as instances that condense expressions and wishes community among which it is possible to glimpse social and political concerns. In this way, the senses associated with the hot air balloon allow us to see a latent incorporation of modern ideology based on novelty, the valuation of reckless actions and a new sensory stimulation of the inhabitant.

This research aims to elaborate the characteristics of the Qur’anic manuscript of Dolah Bakri (MADB) by using philology and historical analysis. In its chronicle history, it shows that MADB appeared in Wonolelo in the 19th century. The use of paper, the technique of writing, the layout and illumination show its character as a mushaf born with the nuances of Javanese locality. In addition, when his contemporaries used mixed rasm, ‘Uthma}ni} and imla}’i}, MADB consistently used the rasm ‘uthma}ni}. From the social context, in Wonolelo, MADB was not merely as a Qur’anic mushaf which is used as a medium of reading for local Muslim community, but it had social and economic function as well. MADB could be a symbol of an economic power of its owner. MADB could also be a symbol of the integration of Islamic movement and social class identity of economic society.
