Resumo: Investigamos como Machado de Assis, no conto "Pílades e Orestes", propõe um modo singular de figurar a fala represada como signo ou sintoma da amizade e do amor, tanto no âmbito do personagem como no da forma narrativa. Tentamos mostrar como a postura do personagem Quintanilha pode ser entendida como inversão de papéis sexuais e familiares e como figuração da neurose histérica, em chave psicanalítica. Para tanto, comparamos o conto não apenas com os dois últimos romances de Machado, mas também com tragédias gregas que figuram o mito, além de dois contos da França do século XVIII, de Diderot e de Saint-Lambert.

This paper presents the graphophonetic content of the grammar entitled Maitre portugais ou Nouvelle grammaire portugaise et françoise, composée d'après les meilleurs grammaires et, particulierement, sur la portugaise et angloise d'Antoine Vieyra Transtagano (1799), published by an anonymous author. As this author seems to have benefited from the structure and content of the Anglo-Portuguese grammar A new portuguese grammar in four parts (1768) by António Vieira Transtagano (1712-1797), we will try to establish whether the French grammar is a mere translation of the English version or whether its translator made his own linguistic observations that let him be integrated within the Portuguese linguistic historiography as a contemporary foreign language. Bearing in mind the "climate of opinion" (Koerner, 2014) in which the work was published, we used the method of contrastive analysis of the two grammars (Auroux, 2006), which certified that although the author translated contents from the English grammar, he also added some subchapters with titles such as "Remarques du Traducteur". In these texts, as well as in other similar annotations, the author added very pertinent and innovative points of view regarding the linguistic systematisation of Portuguese, particularly in terms of its phonetic characteristics, as a foreign language, which indorsed him to be highlighted among contemporary linguists such as Paul Teyssier. For these reasons, the translator of Maitre portugais is a work of reference within the Portuguese and Franco-Portuguese linguistics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

When analyzing the 18th-century monarchic censorship of the Spanish translations of L'onanisme, written by Swiss doctor Samuel Tissot, a tension emerges between the doctors-censors and the doctors-translators because, while the first ones sought to regulate information and languages, the second ones promoted the dissemination of scientific texts on sexuality that would impact both the health of the citizens and of the nation as a whole. Regulating humors and specially semen became essential for an enlightened politics where religion, morality, hygiene, and public health were entangled. In this "spermatic economy," neither retention nor spillage were desirable; rather, a seminal regime guaranteed the moral, social, and economic health of the nation. Men and their semen became thus central for both the genetic and social reproduction of Spain, and for its economic productivity, as Spain sought to position itself in the European context.

The reforms in recruiting policies within the ruling elites that the Bourbons carried out in the 18th century, accomplished through the launching of new strategies in the selection and formative systems, contributed to the transformation of the educational procedures followed by those families seeking to be part of the new political and military establishment. In this essay, I summarize the educational trajectories of the Basque and Navarrese elite families that participated intensively in this changing processes. In the first place, in this essay I explore the social foundation of the educational system: the contrast between belonging and globalization; and the social networks that guaranteed the educational trajectories of these families, all of it in global scale. Next, I disclose the different stages and levels that conformed the education of these elites: the teaching of Spanish and the first writing lessons; the secondary education in schools and Latin or grammar schools; and the partial decline of the university system after the initiation of these new recruiting policies that the Bourbons have sponsored, evidence of which is the prominence attained by institutions such as the royal seminaries, the military academies and the «Secretarías del Despacho». This part of the essay is completed with a study on how these families would seek to furnish their sons and daughters with a formation in good manners, usually by enrolling them in the royal seminaries or schooling them in France. In conclusion, I believe that these essay offers a revealing insight into the creation of a new elite of cosmopolitan, civilized and reformist enlightened families. But at the same time, it also exposes the cultural breach between these new «civilized» elites and those who remained loyal to the traditional paradigm.

У статті проаналізовано матеріали дипломатичної місії данського дипломата Юста Юля (1709–1711 рр.), а саме подорожній щоденник, який, окрім опису мандрівки теренами Східної Європи, розповідає про особливості данської дипломатії в часи Великої Північної війни та специфіку міжнародних відносин на початку XVIII ст. Поява низки джерел, які написали дипломати-очевидці та співучасники знакових подій початку XVIII ст., була наслідком нових тактик у зовнішній політиці тогочасних правителів та їхніх таємних радників. Європейські дипломати, які перебували в закордонних місіях, дуже часто були в ролі шпигуна та етнографа-мемуариста водночас. В українських дослідженнях цей текст згадується нечасто, хоча містить цікаві «українські сюжети», які ще потребують ґрунтовного вивчення та контекстуалізації. Звернення до окремих сюжетів і тем, які ще не стали предметом наукових студій, є нагодою для застосування підходів історичної антропології, культурної історії загалом та культурної історії тревелогів зокрема. У цій статті зосереджено увагу на описі повсякденного життя данського посла як невідокремної частини дипломатичної місії до Росії: перебування при дворі Петра І та мандрівки теренами Російської держави, Гетьманщини і Речі Посполитої.

This article looks at a character of Jakub Frank, the 18th-century Jewish Messianic leader, in Andrzej Żuławski's book of idiosyncratic essays Moliwda (published in 1994). Żuławski, a controversial fi lm-maker and writer, whose historic musings are usually focused on an individual who embodies the spirit of the age in this case turns his attention to Jakub Frank. Moliwda is typical of the early phase of Żuławski's writing career characterized by a radically revisionist explorations of the Age of the Enlightenment in search for parallels with the modern age and his own life. Jakub Frank is presented as a trickster, religious charlatan, political fraudster and fateful ancestor of 20th-century tyrants, but at the same time as a rebel against the idea of God and history enshrined in the Judaic tradition. The article views Żuławski's interpretation as an attempt to appropriate certain elements of the history of religion to create an authoritarian vision of modernity and its historical roots, based on mechanisms of self-aggrandizement, sexualization of power and subversion of all hierarchies.

This article considers advertisement and marketing strategies for poetry books and other printed material in the "Gaceta de Madrid," a government-run Spanish publication, from the late 17th to the mid-18th centuries.

En Historia, la correspondencia epistolar privada, en cuanto medio de comunicación entre personas, es la única fuente documental que revela las interacciones directas, no mediatizadas institucionalmente, entre actores sociales. El artículo explora las posibilidades de esta fuente tanto para el análisis cualitativo e intensivo de las relaciones personales como para reconstruir la “red egocentrada” del receptor de las cartas y llevar a cabo un análisis efectivo de redes sociales, aplicando los métodos y parámetros del “Social Network Analysis”. A partir de dos ejemplos centrados en epistolarios del siglo XVIII, los autores muestran las posibilidades y limitaciones de los análisis cualitativos clásicos y el interés de las aportaciones específicas del análisis de redes egocentradas, abogando por la combinación de ambas metodologías.
