Performance Art in Portugal

Performance Art in Portugal

This book explores histories which have only recently been rediscovered by artists and researchers. This study explores the history of Portuguese performance art in its various speculative and performative forms. The author approaches this relationship with the re-emergence and centrality of these (semi-)peripheral histories at an international level whilst identifying some of their unique traits: their cycles of emergence and retraction in Portuguese history; their multiple and complex ontologies; the intertwined relations between the art of performance and the social performance of the Portuguese (regarding topics as sensitive and fracturing as those of the long dictatorship the colonial war and the revolutionary process or even the integration of Portugal in the European Community and more recently the various 21st century social political and economic crises). This reading in turn covers the development of the relationship between performance and hybridism namely analyzing the recent dimension of meta-hybridism in the processes of artistic homage that contemporary Portuguese creators have been establishing through access to the histories and archives of this historical genre. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in theatre and performance studies performance art and arts in general. | Performance Art in Portugal

Encounters with Jazz on Television in Cold War Era Portugal 1954–1974

Encounters with Jazz on Television in Cold War Era Portugal: 1954–1974 explores the relationship between jazz and television by investigating the experiences of performers and producers in one of the last European colonial states (Portugal) during a period of political and social repression and global isolation. This new model of systemic analysis reveals a paradoxical interrelationship between state-controlled television and international media industries highlighting the space where these two forces collide and locating television jazz production within an important cultural milieu with a lasting impact on Portuguese society. From the days of the first feasibility studies for a proposed public television service in 1954 to the military coup that overthrew the far-right Estado Novo regime in 1974 this book maps the institutionalization of jazz in Portugal as a social and musical practice one that played a significant role in fostering cultural diversity. It looks at the musicians repertoires production processes broadcasts policies and strategies that fuelled the launch of Radiotelevisão Portuguesa (RTP) and the rise of television an indispensable new medium that granted Portuguese people access to the wider world – a world curated by public television producers with individual cultural political and aesthetic attitudes to influence the dissemination of jazz. In exploring the connections between these national and international jazz scenes Encounters with Jazz on Television in Cold War Era Portugal: 1954–1974 addresses opportunities for in-depth comparison of the Portuguese experience with that of other countries situating Cold War era Portuguese television jazz broadcasting as part of a bigger still unwritten story. | Encounters with Jazz on Television in Cold War Era Portugal 1954–1974

The First World Empire Portugal War and Military Revolution

The First World Empire Portugal War and Military Revolution

This book offers a comprehensive overview of the early modern military history of Portugal and its possessions in Africa the Americas and Asia from the perspective of the military revolution historiographical debate. The existence of a military revolution in the early modern period has been much debated in international historiography and this volume fills a significant gap in its relation to the history of Portugal and its overseas empire. It examines different forms of military change in specifically Portuguese case studies but also adopts a global perspective through the analysis of different contexts and episodes in Africa the Americas and Asia. Contributors explore whether there is evidence of what could be defined as aspects of a military revolution or whether other explanatory models are needed to account for different forms of military change. In this way it offers the reader a variety of perspectives that contribute to the debate over the applicability of the military revolution concept to Portugal and its empire during the early modern period. Broken down into four thematic parts and broad in both chronological and geographical scope the book deepens our understanding of the art of warfare in Portugal and its empire and demonstrates how the military revolution debate can be used to examine military change in a global perspective. This is an essential text for scholars and students of military history military architecture global history Asian history and the history of Iberian empires.

The Walkable City Dimensions of Walking and Overlapping Walks of Life

The Walkable City Dimensions of Walking and Overlapping Walks of Life

This book explores everyday walking in contemporary urban life. It brings together important theoretical and empirical insights to understand how the ‘walkability’ of urban spaces can be imagined planned for and experienced. The book focuses on the everyday experiences of the urban walker the bodily experiences of walking and different walking research methods. It goes beyond the conventional focus on walkable places by delving into the ways in which urban space is consumed and produced through different ways of walking. Drawing on fieldwork in the UK and international secondary sources the book examines how walking is socially and materially co-produced focusing on pedestrian practices infrastructures and the social nature of walking. Chapters in the book offer key explorations of the cultural and social inclusions and exclusions of navigating the city on foot. The book considers transport planning and policy promoting pedestrian movement pedestrian infrastructures the politics of walking and social interactions of urban pedestrians. The book offers vital analyses of how different but overlapping dimensions of walking and their relationship with urban space are often overlooked and the importance of centring the lived experiences of walking in understandings of pedestrian practices.

Crusading at the Edges of Europe Denmark and Portugal c.1000 c.1250

Crusading at the Edges of Europe Denmark and Portugal c.1000 c.1250

This book is the first to compare Denmark and Portugal systematically in the High Middle Ages and demonstrates how the two countries became strong kingdoms and important powers internationally by their participation in the crusading movement. Communication in the Middle Ages was better developed than often assumed and institutions ideas and military technology was exchanged rapidly meaning it was possible to coordinate great military expeditions across the geographical periphery of Western Europe. Both Denmark and Portugal were closely connected to the sea and developed strong fleets at the entrance to the Baltic and in the Mediterranean Seas respectively. They also both had religious borders to the pagan Wends and to the Muslims that were pushed forward in almost continuous crusades throughout the centuries. Crusading at the Edges of Europe follows the major campaigns of the kings and crusaders in Denmark and Portugal and compares war-technology and crusading ideology highlighting how the countries learned from each other and became organised for war. | Crusading at the Edges of Europe Denmark and Portugal c. 1000 � c. 1250

The Prehistoric Rock Art of Portugal Symbolising Animals and Things

The Prehistoric Rock Art of Portugal Symbolising Animals and Things

The Prehistoric Rock Art of Portugal presents significant interpretive perspectives in Portuguese rock art research and offers an excellent representation of core rock art areas along with current thinking and interpretations. The various chapters deliver a personal approach to the many issues themes and approaches that are embedded within the rock art of the outpost of western Atlantic Europe. Ethnographical perspectives have often dominated the study of rock art but unlike other well-studied regions the western Iberian Peninsula is absent of an ethnographical or ethno-historical past and therefore the production of rock art can only be archaeologically assessed. Thus the work promotes interpretive perspectives on Portuguese rock art illustrating the richness chronology and context of these unique artistic expressions and explores the variability of rock art imagery and the diversity of landscapes and social contexts in which it was produced. Although focusing on Portuguese rock art the book includes a number of universal themes that will appeal to a broad range of scholars researching in archaeology and anthropology history of art as well as professionals engaged in rock art heritage and conservation. | The Prehistoric Rock Art of Portugal Symbolising Animals and Things

God and the Book of Nature Experiments in Theology of Science

God and the Book of Nature Experiments in Theology of Science

God and the Book of Nature develops theological views of the natural sciences in light of the recent theological turn in science-and-religion scholarship and the ‘science-engaged theology’ movement. Centered around the Book of Nature metaphor it brings together contributions by theologians natural scientists and philosophers based in Europe and North America. They provide an exploration of complementary (and even contesting) readings of the Book of Nature particularly in light of the vexing questions that arise around essentialism and unity in the field of science and religion. Taking an experimental and open-ended approach the volume does not attempt to unify the readings into a single ‘plot’ that defines the Book of Nature still less a single ‘theology of nature’ but instead it represents a variety of hermeneutical stances. Overall the book embraces a constructive theological attitude toward the modern sciences and makes significant contributions to the research literature in science and religion. | God and the Book of Nature Experiments in Theology of Science
