Drawing upon newly compiled datasets from Angolan export records and Lisbon import data, it reconstructs patterns in ivory commerce under Portuguese imperial rule. The findings show a gradual increase in ivory exports, albeit at lower levels than those by Dutch and British traders. The article demonstrates how Portugal’s state monopoly imposed structural constraints that limited the overall scale of the trade. Nevertheless, ivory occupied an important place within the imperial economy, generating revenue for the Crown and sustaining a domestic manufacturing sector in Lisbon. By integrating quantitative and institutional analysis, this study offers new insights into the economic and environmental significance of ivory within the Portuguese empire. 2025-12-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10174/41880 Title: Expressões de poder, espaços de devoção: as abadessas trienais do mosteiro cisterciense de S. Bento de Cástris Authors: Conde, Antónia Fialho Abstract: Jean Délumeau, in consecrating the History of Religions as a field of histo- riographical debate, emphasises two lines of force in the action of the Church in the Catholic Reformation: the reinforcement of its internal struc- tures and the defence of the paradigms of sanctity and piety. It is in this con- text that we shall seek to address, based on the Cistercian community of S. Bento de Cástris (located in Évora, a city that knew similar examples), the role of women's communities as spaces of artistic commissioning, preserving the Tridentine dictates. This commis- sioning, both of religious women and of prelates, in addition to the daily demands of maintaining the built spa- ce, took place in a more structured way in the community we are dealing with from the first decades of the 16th century, continuing in the following centuries through painting, carving, tiles, goldsmithery, carpentry, organ commissioning and liturgical books and manuscripts intended, the latter, for the Choir.// Jean Délumeau, ao consagrar a História das Religiões como campo de debate historiográfico, sublinha duas linhas de força na actuação da Igreja na Reforma Católica: o fortalecimento das suas es- truturas internas e a defesa dos para- digmas da santidade e da piedade.

Essa encomenda, tanto de religiosas particulares como de pre- ladas, além das exigências do quotidia- no em relação à manutenção do espaço edificado, teve lugar de forma mais estruturada na comunidade de que nos ocupamos logo nas primeiras décadas do século XVI, prolongando-se nos sé- culos posteriores através da pintura, talha, azulejaria, ourivesaria, carpinta- ria, encomenda de órgãos e de livros e manuscritos litúrgicos destinados, estes últimos, ao Coro 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10174/41879 Title: Crítica Textual Authors: Batista, Ceila Maria Ferreira; Costa, Renata Ferreira; Queiroz, Mário Newman de; Dores, Marcus Editors: Cavalheiro, Juciane; Rolon, Renata; Leão, Allison; Rodrigues de Albuquerque, Gerson; Lima de Souza, Shelton; Simplício dos Santos, Fernando; Marques de Faria, Michel Abstract: Verbete do GT de Crítica Textual da Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Linguística (ANPOLL), Brasil. 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10174/41733 Title: Grafito de capacidade volumétrica num dolium exumado na Praia da Tojeirinha (Ponte de Sor, Portugal) Authors: Andrade, Daniel; Bombico, Sónia; Carneiro, André; Gonçalves, Cláudia Carvalho; Quaresma, José Carlos; Pereira, Pedro Abrunhosa Abstract: O artigo descreve um grafito de capacidade volumétrica grafitado num dolium recuperado do sítio arqueológico romano da Praia da Tojeirinha (Ponte de Sor, Portugal). 2025-12-01T00:00:00Z
