- The epic discourse as an expression of “Homesickness” for a mediterranean world: Jerónimo Corte-Real and the Battle of LepantoPublication . Avelar, Ana Paula; Tavim, José Alberto da Silva, Cunha, João Teles e; Cunha, João Teles eThis essay examines how a specific epic discourse, Jerónimo Corte Real’s Felicissima victoria concedida del cielo al senor don Iuan d’Austria, en el golfo de Lepanto de la poderosa armada Othomana. En el anno de nuestra salvacion de 1572 (1578), embraces the “homesickness” for a “Mediterranean World”, where the unchallenged power of Christianity would prevail. We follow the Braudelian perspective of how “the Inland Sea” had become another place for Philip II’s Spain, with the Atlantic Ocean acquiring the status of “centre of the Earth”, in order to raise the question of whether the Battle of Lepanto was embodied as a sign of a nostalgic Mediterranean World. Anchored in concepts such as “homesickness”, nostalgia, and memory, we analyze the shaping of an epic discourse, through one military action: Lepanto’s battle. In Corte-Real’s poetic account of a historical event, the ideas and emotions built upon the notion of belonging, hospitality and loss are also revealed.
- Leonardo Turriano e la produzione in fabbrica in Portogallo nel primo quarto del XVII secolo. Il suo contributo al complesso tecnologico-militare di Barcarena (Oeiras)Publication . Cardoso, João Luis; Alessandrini, Nunziatella; Russo, Mariagrazia; Sabatini, GaetanoJoão Luís Cardoso presenta nel suo saggio la figura di Leonardo Turriano, ingegnere cremonese che contribuì significativamente alla produzione industriale portoghese nel XVII secolo, in particolare nella progettazione del complesso tecnologico-militare di Barcarena (Oeiras). La fabbricazione di polvere da sparo, documentata in Portogallo già dal XV secolo, crebbe durante l’espansione ultramarina, rendendo necessaria l’importazione di salnitro dall’India. Nel 1617, Turriano fu incaricato dal Conselho da Fazenda di costruire un impianto per la produzione di polvere da sparo. Il sito, logisticamente vantaggioso per la vicinanza al Tago e a Lisbona, divenne operativo nel 1618. L’opera testimonia l’ingegno di Turriano, figura chiave nel panorama scientifico e tecnologico portoghese dell’epoca.

- Leceia, Moita da Ladra e Outeiro Redondo: similarities and differences between three walled sites of Portuguese ExtremaduraPublication . Cardoso, João LuísThe three major walled sites where the author conducted archaeological excavations - Leceia (Oeiras), between 1983 and 2002; Moita da Ladra (Vila Franca de Xira), between 2003 and 2006; and Outeiro Redondo (Sesimbra), between 2005 and 2016 - yielded a body of information of unquestionable relevance to our knowledge of architectures, stratigraphies and absolute datings. This data became essential for understanding the economy and social organisation of the populations that occupied this vast region, with its own cultural significance: the socalled ‘Chalcolithic of Extremadura’. In addition to this remarkable wealth of information, the exhumed archaeological remains have been thoroughly studied and published in detail. This paper will describe the main architectural features, both defensive and residential, of each site. Moreover, the archaeological assemblages will be enhanced based on the identification of artefacts that, given their typology, could provide objective information about the most relevant economic activities carried out by the sites’ inhabitants. Such conclusions, combined with the sites’ features, including their geographical location and size, led, for the first time, to conclusions on their functional nature and how they fitted into the demographic and economic fabric of the densely populated Lisbon/Setúbal peninsulas during the 3rd millennium BC.

- Snu Abecassis (Copenhague, 1940 – Lisboa, 1980)Publication . Melo, DanielSnu Abecassis, cuyo nombre de nacimiento era Ebba Merete Seidenfaden, fue la principal mentora e impulsora de la fase inicial de la editorial Publicações Dom Quixote, que fundó el 16/03/1965, junto con su marido Vasco Abecassis (abogado) y António Neves Pedro, que había trabajado anteriormente en la editorial británica Penguin y en la portuguesa Publicações Europa-América (PE-A). En 1966, se sustituyó a este último en la dirección literaria por Carlos de Araújo, quien ocupó el cargo y asistió a Snu en la dirección editorial hasta abril de 1974, siendo también políglota y antiguo empleado de PE-A. La idea de crear una editorial intervencionista, actual y de calidad partió de Snu, inspirada por su implicación familiar (sus padres fueron resistentes y periodistas antinazis, su padrastro fue el heredero de una influyente editorial escandinava, Bonnier, y anfitrión de escritores nominados al Premio Nobel de Literatura, junto con su madre, que también trabajó en Penguin Books y Bonnier), su educación intelectual y cosmopolita y su personalidad combativa y prodemocrática. Cuando se instaló en Portugal con su marido, Snu decidió inmediatamente crear esta editorial, a la edad de 25 años.

- Politics, culture, and religion in modern times: the Catholic Church and the restructuring of censorshipPublication . Melo, Daniel; Barros, Júlia Leitão deThis article analyses the restructuring of Catholic Church censorial practices in the historical context of questioning and erosion of the sacred in the Western world. We defend that the international action by the Vatican in the public sphere and its potential for shaping cultural processes at a transnational level were only possible through national ramifications/mediations. We analyse its dual offensive/reactive strategy within culture and the media, which promoted worldviews and reacted to mass culture adverse to those views, and how it was carried out by a particular structure, Catholic Action. We focus on its activity in Portugal and on the scrutiny applied to cinema and the reading materials which were allowed to circulate. For that purpose, we surveyed the most relevant catholic “reading guides” published over this period and described their modes of reception across diverse public audiences. We intend to show how one of the longest dictatorships in Europe in the 20th century shaped the modus operandi of the Vatican, contributing to a global Christian culture, to a transnational censorship system, and to the maintenance of an authoritarian regime. We therefore seek to contribute to the reflection on the articulation of censorship practices of the Church and the State.

- El conjunto de la cueva de Correio-MorPublication . Cardoso, João LuísLa cueva natural de Correio Mor situada 10 km al norte de Lisboa, fué descubierta accidentalmente durante la exploración de una cantera en las duras calizas del Cretácico inferior, cuyo frente de exploración seccionó oblicuamente la cavidad. En el decurso de las excavaciones se excavó un nivel en el suelo de la cueva, en un sector que ofreció un conjunto de 10 artefactos ideotécnicos sobre caliza de cronologia calcolítica, cuya reconstitución gráfica permitió atribuir el grupo a un altar organizado en el interior de la cueva.
