O presente artigo tem como objetivo discutir as intervenções em áreas urbanas centrais e suas conexões com as políticas culturais. De maneira mais específica, pretende-se analisar como a radicalização da mercantilização do espaço urbano cria condições de interferência em processos de reconhecimento e vivência patrimonial. No caso em questão, destaca-se o imbróglio envolvendo o processo de registro no Livro Patrimonial “Atividades Econômicas Tradicionais e Notáveis”, uma novidade nas políticas patrimoniais da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Ao final, espera-se demonstrar a inexorabilidade das inscrições sociais nas relações espaciais e temporais, carregadas de conflitos discursivos, e sua determinação para a continuidade das expressões selecionadas no novo livro de registros imateriais.

It is well known that over the eighteenth century the calculus moved away from its geometric origins; Euler, and later Lagrange, aspired to transform it into a “purely analytical” discipline. In the 1780 s, the Portuguese mathematician José Anastácio da Cunha developed an original version of the calculus whose interpretation in view of that process presents challenges. Cunha was a strong admirer of Newton (who famously favoured geometry over algebra) and criticized Euler’s faith in analysis. However, the fundamental propositions of his calculus follow the analytical trend. This appears to have been possible due to a nominalistic conception of variable that allowed him to deal with expressions as names, rather than abstract quantities. Still, Cunha tried to keep the definition of fluxion directly applicable to geometrical magnitudes. According to a friend of Cunha’s, his calculus had an algebraic (analytical) branch and a geometrical branch, and it was because of this that his definition of fluxion appeared too complex to some contemporaries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
