Full textUsually, the culture of the coca plant is carried out on the hot and wet valleys of the andean cordillera oriental slopes. The fact that, in the xviiith century, the coca was specially cultivated in the yungas valleys of la paz, represents a particular and singular contribution to the colonial and republican economy of bolivia. Remaining as a traditional consumption product for the indian people, it takes a very important place in the commercial agrarian activities of the country at that period. The study of the yungas valleys of la paz shows that the plant is mainly produced in the haciendas but also in the indian communities; bath of them- hacienas and communities- must face the same problems concerning workers mobilization and production organization. Coca leaves don't have any commercial value as far as they don't leave the production land to be diffused in the economic area of alto peru. Trade and barter are the basis of the coca leaves circulation. The income taxes from coca trafic are consequent enough to represent a graet asset for la paz, and for this reason, coca wins the interest of the government in this activity which will be developed during the xixth century

Full textThe passage of the Eighteenth to the Nineteenth Century was marked by the crisis of absolutism, the independence of the American colonies, and the formation of national states. During that time period, the population released from of slavery and their descendants experienced important changes as possibilities opened for the concession of rights in several parts of the Atlantic world. In relation to Brazil, some prerogatives of the civil area had been normally followed by local authorities since colonial days, but those of the political sphere were seen by the sovereign as privileges, in response to the requests made by mulattoes inserted in militias and lay brotherhoods. After the 1824 Constitution, civil rights and part of political rights became legal for free people born within national territory as well as for their offspring. The present work analyses this process of transformation in the Jurisdiction of Mariana, through the study of judicial demands issued by former slaves, which could be considered as requests that have generated civil actions. These documents allow us to see the behaviour patterns followed by these subjects in an attempt to legitimise the conquests resulting from manumission in the period before and also after the approval and enactment of the 1824 Constitution. The political behaviour patterns shown by the social groups consisting of former slaves are analysed between the years of 1780 and 1840, a period which runs from the preparation of the sedition of 1789 to the end of the Regency.

Full textThis research focuses on a corpus of lesser known authors, between 1780 and 1840. First of all, the approach is made, from an external point of view, on the social history of linguistics (family background, breeding, education, political involvement of each author) and the history of teaching (potential interested parties, proposed methods, etc. ). Then, from inside, a research is carried out on grammatical categories (mainly those making up the nominal group : article and pronoun) and on the development of ideas such as sentence, clause and period. Are these authors still in the main stream of tradition, the so-called routine, or are they involved in new theories brought in by the ideologists ? what kind of interest do these grammarians bring up towards french, which has become a real language, and towards research on foreign languages, living or dead ? what kind of role did the journal de la langue francaise play? between september 1, 1784 as it was founded by u. Domergue, and 1840, when the last issues were printed, its title and purpose changed several times. How influential were the societes grammaticales for which it was published ? regarding the corpus, we firstly selected some grammaires des dames, a great number of which were available before 1789, but also still in the second half of the 19th century. Then the art de parler et d'ecrire correctement [. . . ] (40 edition, 1809) by l'abbe de levizac, the cours theorique et pratique de langue francaise [. . . ] (10 edition, 1807) by p. A.

Full textOur doctoral thesis attempts to analyse, explain and interpret the perception and representation of the British Industrial Revolution by contemporary French travellers between 1780 and 1840. It is divided into two distinct but interrelated parts. The first part is intended as an introduction to the second one. It is centered mainly on the travellers, their travels and their accounts. It tries to determine the documentary value of the travellers' accounts, which will be used as primary sources. We will undertake an internal analysis of the corpus in search of the clues which will help us in our assessment of their documentary value, focusing on the main determining factors and criteria of classification of the travellers, the motives of travel and the content and form of their accounts. This will enable us get an initial idea of the nature and value of the representations of the Industrial Revolution, which will be the subject of the second part. More substantial, the latter part will examine, analyse and interpret the selected documents, in an attempt to bring out and restore the perception and representations of the different aspects of the British Industrial Revolution by contemporary French travellers. The second part will try to study, explain and interpret the evolution of the representations of the main facets of the Industrial Revolution, which caught the travellers' attention and focused their eyes. And, as a general conclusion, we will try to structure, organise and deepen the analysis in a modest attempt to bring out and underscore the overall underlying significance of the changing perception of the British Industrial Revolution by contemporary French travellers, and what it tells us about their understanding of it

Full textThe thesis follows the development of the increasingly fraught relationship between the French missionaries commonly known as the Lazarists and the Catholic (or Latin) community of Naxos, from the Lazarists' arrival in 1783 until the tenuous settlement of the conflicts in 1840. It also looks at the roots of these conflicts, which can arguably be traced to the arrival on the Jesuits on Naxos in 1627

Full textBetween 1780 and 1830 the conception of landscape, changed radically. At the turn of XVIIIth and XIXth centuries a brotherhood of artists were in Rome who had a new concept of the relationship between architecture and nature. The aesthetic journeys undertaken by these four Frenchmen of the same generation, Jérôme-René Demoulin (1758-1799), Jacques Moulinier (1757-1828), François Liger (1757-?) and Antoine-Laurent Castellan (1772-1838) are the subject of this study. Whilst following their profession as artists, travellers and making long journey across Europe in time of war, they maintained their link with the city of Montpellier. Involved at the heart of scientific investigations or making journeys in pursuit of the picturesque, these men made a harvest of designs from Madrid to Constantinople. The object of this study is firstly torediscover the individual journeys and drawings of each one and to come close to their individual aesthetic. The musee Fabre at Montpellier holds a large proportion of the drawings made during their travels within its collections. Thus in order to complete a definitive catalogue for each of these artists, 4 new catalogues from a total of 450 designs, a great deal of exacting research was necessary. Secondly to analyse each body of work to discover the place each one held in contemporary artistic trends more exacting study was required. These men form neither a group or a sample study. By their works and travels they represent a fragment of the landscape work of their time. Inheritors of their ideas in the XIXth century from the picturesque views of Jacques Moulinier, to the intuition of Antoine-Laurent Castellan, who made his studies in the forest of Fontainebleau from 1819, prefigure the future concepts of landscape

The thesis argues that a European cultural history existed in those years that have been considered as the dawn of the ‘Age of Nationalism’. Although, early nineteenth-century pantheons can superficially be divided in two groups, a state-based and a culture-oriented selection, the dissertation shows that the division is more subtle as pantheon commissioners faced numerous similar problems. How could a canon, being a series of exemplary men, be selected that would flag rather than challenge the commissioner’s position as central symbolic reference and ‘national historian’? How to glorify men in cultures still thoroughly attached to conventional forms of Christianity and, even more challenging, in churches dedicated to, in Christian Europe universal, saints? Did a difference exist between pantheons located in Protestant, Catholic or bi-confessional countries, either in the range of exemplary men or in the balance between ancient and Christian symbolism traditionally used in political iconography?20 What style, roughly divided between Neoclassicism and romantic Gothic, was considered most suitable to give visual form to the ideas of a pantheon commissioner or appeal best to the target collective? How could elites, in an age in which the public sphere had started to open up, promote their pantheons through newspapers, provided this is what they wanted? These questions, which will be tackled in relation to every pantheon discussed in the thesis, can be classified under three headings: (i) the relationship between the exemplary men and the commissioner who formed the principal reference point of a pantheon, (ii) the rapport between religious and pagan/secular commemorative rituals as well as a pantheon’s aesthetics and (iii) the balance between nation and region or, more broadly, between political core and periphery. The dissertation is an account of the early nineteenth-century European journey of an ancient, but transformed, concept and its interaction with contemporary political culture. It is the story of how a pantheonic ideal type - roughly defined as a temple in which tribute is paid to the nation’s greatest men for the sake of stimulating emulation of their lives and actions - was adjusted to befit different recipient audiences. Simultaneously, the dissertation shows how, despite the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, the mechanism underlying ancien régime political symbolism and the importance it attached to notions of sanctity survived well into the nineteenth century.21 Moreover, it shows how public pantheons raised prior to 1848 remained, the veil of nationalist rhetoric notwithstanding, socio-politically and culturally eclectic stages intended to reproduce elites. Nor was the community of the dead itself always a democratic collective; occasionally, a commissioner actively sought to differentiate between his exemplary men. The question is, of course, whether did this not defeat the pantheonic principle by making some men more exemplary, and important, than others. As a result, the thesis argues that instead of appreciating early nineteenth-century pantheons as stages where collective ideas were communicated or performed, these monuments should be regarded as both cause and outcome of a ‘struggle for social domination’ and political power played out in a time of great societal transition and continued warfare between (infant) nation-states.22 Finally, the dissertation is the story of how the public pantheons of early nineteenth-century Europe interacted and how, seen in conjunction, they formed a network of power relations that has been downplayed by historians who focus on national peculiarities. Whichever ideological or cultural angle commissioners approached their pantheons from, the basic tenet of every early nineteenth-century public pantheon discussed in the thesis was the same: to phrase the interests of the Self through the vocabulary of the national Other at a time traditional forms of political or social authority eroded. The existence of an inherently conservative bend queries the modernity of these pantheons.
