The publication is based on the analysis of the periodical bulletin of the Polish Ministry of the Interior – the so-called "Daily Information", covering the martial law period in Poland (13 December 1981 to 22 July 1983). It consists of 115 short "stories". The subjective selection of quotations from the official ministerial documents shows the sad and grotesque side of the martial law, but on a deeper level it helps to understand the economic and social history of the Polish People's Republic, as well as the official propaganda of this period.

<p>Para a efetivação do governo ultramarino, as práticas de escrita tornaram-se inerentes ao exercício do mando no período moderno. A massa documental produzida pelo império luso-brasileiro é formada por distintas tipologias documentais de ordem político-administrativa, jurídica, econômica e também sociocultural. Entre esses papéis as cartas ocuparam um lugar de destaque, considerando os usos nos espaços da vida pública e particular. A partir desse contexto, este artigo se ocupará da escrita epistolar de D. Luís de Almeida, 2º Marquês do Lavradio, vice-rei do Estado do Brasil de 1769 a 1779. O objetivo será problematizar a prática discursiva de amizade e de ofício de Lavradio em um momento específico de sua passagem pela América: o recebimento da nomeação ao cargo de vice-rei, quando ainda governava a capitania da Bahia (1768-1769). Para isso, selecionamos três missivas: uma de amizade enviada ao tio, Tomas de Almeida, e duas – uma de ofício e outra de amizade – destinadas ao secretário de Estado da Marinha e Ultramar, Francisco Xavier de Mendonça Furtado. A seleção de cartas será analisada por meio dos pressupostos teóricos e metodológicos apresentados pela história social da Cultura Escrita, ao problematizar a carta não apenas como fonte de informação, mas objeto de análise.</p><p><strong><br /></strong></p><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>For the realization of the overseas government the script practices became inherent in the exercise of power in the modern period. The documental mass produced by the Portuguese-Brazilian Empire is made up of different documentary types of political-administrative, legal, economic, and also social and cultural category. Among these papers the letters occupied a prominent place considering the uses in the areas of private and public life. Thus, this article shall deal with the epistolary script of D. Luís de Almeida, 2<sup>nd</sup> Marquis of Lavradio, and Viceroy of Brazilian State from 1769 to 1779. The goal is to discuss the discursive practice of friendship and official of Lavradio at a specific time of his passage through America: receiving the appointment to the post of vice-king, while the captaincy of Bahia (1768-1769) still ruled. For this we selected three letters: one of friendship sent to the uncle, Tomas de Almeida, and two – one official and another of friendship – for the Staff of Navy and Overseas Secretary, Francisco Xavier de Mendonça Furtado. Thus, the selection of letters shall be analyzed by means of the theoretical and methodological assumptions presented by social history of Script Culture, when discussing the letter not only as a source of information, but also as an object of analysis.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Correspondence; Portuguese-Brazilian Empire; Viceroy; 2<sup>nd</sup> Marquis of Lavradio.</p>

It surveys the existing literature from the fields of dance studies, anthropology, musicology, and cultural history. It lays out the argument, methodology, and disciplinary sources and explains the criteria for the selection of the specific case studies, linking the diversity of those case studies to the diversity of methodological tools necessary for their analysis and comparison.

This collection of ten short stories from the 1990s, translated and annotated by Fran Martin, highlights the importance of the topic “queer” in a non-Western context. Not only is the excellent quality of the translation worthy of mention; the familiarity of the author with queer theory, Taiwanese social history and Chinese literature in general is also outstanding.In her detailed introduction, Fran Martin illustrates vividly the relevance of tongzhi-literature (tongzhi wenxue is the expression currently used to describe the same-sex discourse in the Taiwanese world) within the broader transformation of Taiwanese society in general and “in the public discourse on sexualities” in particular (p. 2). She attributes the development of tongzhi-literature and the more recent sub-genre of ku'er-literature (ku'er wenxue or “queer literature”) to the rise of postmodernism (houxiandai zhuyi) in post martial-law Taiwan (p. 4–5).

The Cold War

The Matsu archipelago between China and Taiwan, for long an isolated outpost off southeast China, was suddenly transformed into a military frontline in 1949 by the Cold War and the Communist-Nationalist conflict. The army occupied the islands, commencing more than 40 long years of military rule. With the lifting of martial law in 1992, the people were confronted with the question of how to move forward. This in-depth ethnography and social history of the islands focuses on how individual citizens redefined themselves and reimagined their society. Drawing on long-term fieldwork, Wei-Ping Lin shows how islanders used both traditional and new media to cope with the conflicts and trauma of harsh military rule. She discusses the formation of new social imaginaries through the appearance of 'imagining subjects', interrogating their subjectification processes and varied uses of mediating technologies as they seek to answer existential questions.

The Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 was a measure of major importance, both as an administrative innovation and because of its social effects. The Ministry of Health archives in the Public Record Office include in the Poor Law Papers a very large and valuable source for the social history of nineteenth century Britain. Much more work on this mass of evidence will be necessary before any very reliable assessment of the effect of the New Poor Law can be made. This paper is an attempt to use a small selection of these papers to discuss the way in which the system prescribed by the 1834 Act was introduced into Tyneside, already an important region of economic growth in these years.
