Locais de passagens, de disputas diplomáticas, de encontros e desen- contros, mitos e tragédias, as ilhas do Atlântico Sul, hoje em possessão brasileira, têm sido – como em diversos outros locais do mundo – nós es- tratégicos e inusitados de circulação de gentes, animais, plantas, fragmentos de rochas, publicações e de redes de pesquisas muito além de escalas locais ou regionais. A paisagem, a ocupação, os fragmentos de rochas como das ilhas da Trindade, Fernando de Noronha, dos Rochedos de São Pedro e São Paulo desfiaram ao longo dos séculos as teorias geológicas daqueles que se aventuraram por elas. Esse artigo insere essas ilhas nas discus- sões sobre a formação geológica das ilhas oceânicas e do próprio oceano. Abrange períodos anteriores às observações à distância em um único dia por Darwin em Fernando de Noronha até a metade do século XX em que pequenos pedaços de rochas da pequena ilha da Trindade a transformaram em uma extensa cadeia de montanhas submarinas e estabeleceram o caráter não vulcânico das rochas de São Pedro e São Paulo. Conclui indicando a importância das escalas temporais e espaciais em Geologia, para tratar da produção do conhecimento científico em suas interconexões em diferentes contextos geopolíticos, sociais e culturais.

Trend forecasting is often presented as an enigmatic field commanding change and introducing novelty by renovating the cycle of fashion change. This study purposes to interrogate the role of trend forecasting in the process of change in fashion by questioning the processes, how the parties involved, the judgements of forecasters and in which ways trend reports influence creative choices and establish novelty. While the business of trend forecasting conveys a notion of searching and finding the new, how and with which resources do forecasters make their inspired decisions? What influence do designers, trendsetters and authorities of style and taste have in the decision making process? Through an analysis of trend reports, interviews with professionals in the fashion and trend forecasting industries and literature on the subject, this article aims to examine how the discourse of change is constructed and how the participants contribute to it, which may illuminate the processes influencing changes in fashion.

In mid-sixteenth century, two Portuguese jurists argued for equality of capabilities between the two sexes and strove for a change in the discourse on women and for greater equity between women and men. The first, João de Barros (not to be confused with his contemporary and namesake, João de Barros, the intellectual), published the book Espelho de casados (A mirror of married people) in 1540, in Porto, refuting the detractors of marriage and women, and praising married life. Seventeen years later, in Lisbon, Rui Gonçalves published Dos privilégios e prerrogativas que o género feminino tem (On the privileges and prerogatives of the female sex). After arguing that women are equal or superior to men, he systematises from the abundant legislation in force all situations that could, in any way, protect women. In this chapter, I will try to highlight the innovative contributions of these authors and what their work reveals about the prevailing images and practices of their time.

This paper examines the meat supply system in Rio de Janeiro from the late nineteenth century to the 1920s. For a period of time the city's monopoly over meat processing and retailing guaranteed a steady supply at predictable prices. However, at the turn of the century, 'interlopers', as municipal officials labelled those who attempted to introduce their product into Rio's market, began to question this century-old monopoly. Hence, for a relatively short period, Rio de Janeiro implemented a number of measures: curtailing the long-standing custom of clandestine slaughtering; establishing a centralised and somewhat regulated public abattoir system; and, finally, introducing meat-packing companies. This study considers these developments by undertaking a broader inquiry into how they affected per capita meat availability in Rio de Janeiro from the 1890s to the 1920s. Adapted from the source document.

Partindo de um recorte de leituras do campo disciplinar de História das Ciências, este artigo reúne flashes da construção e da diversificação das áreas de estudos identificadas como gênero e ciência, gênero em ciências, estudos feministas das ciências, para problematizar a importância de se considerar a historicidade desses estudos de gênero e suas contribuições e limitações para reflexões críticas sobre a construção das ciências.

La escacez de estudios sobre el tema parece relacionarse, entre otros factores, con la precariedad de las fuentes disponibles. Parte del material sobre el asunto, sobre todo los archivos privados de los ganaderos, no son fácilmente accesibles para el investigador. El limitado acceso a esta información sin duda reduce las posibilidades de conocer algunos aspectos fundamentales como los vínculos comerciales entre los criadores, técnicas de producción y reproducción, el sistema de pastoreo, la mano de obra empleada, entre otros. Tampoco existen censos ganaderos nacionales en México para el siglo XIX, el primer de esta naturaleza fue publicado solamente en 1930. De modo que para reconstruir algunos aspectos esenciales de la economía ganadera mexicana en las últimas décadas del siglo XIX debemos acudir a los conteos regionales.</span></span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span></p><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 9pt;"><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 9pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"> </span></span></span></span></span></p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span>
