ABSTRACT
Resumo Analisa a viagem do britânico George Gardner ao Brasil durante os anos 1830. Após se graduar em história natural pela Universidade de Glasgow, influenciado por seu professor e por leituras de naturalistas de seu tempo, Gardner embarcou para o Brasil em março de 1836, chegando ao Rio de Janeiro dois meses depois. O artigo apresenta suas impressões sobre a escravidão no Brasil, procurando desvendar o universo simbólico de uma representação dramática descrita por ele, ocorrida em uma fazenda do Rio de Janeiro no dia de Natal. Desvelando a escravidão negra em seus circuitos atlânticos, comparamos o evento com outros semelhantes ocorridos no Brasil e em Trinidad e Tobago.
Abstract This article analyzes the English botanist George Gardner's trip to Brazil during the 1830s. After graduating from the University of Glasgow Gardner was influenced by his teacher and by readings of contemporary naturalists and set off for Brazil in March of 1836, arriving two months later in Rio de Janeiro. The article presents Gardner's impressions of slavery in Brazil, in an attempt to unveil the symbolic universe of a play he witnessed and described, which took place on a farm in Rio de Janeiro on Christmas night. By describing black slavery in its routes across the Atlantic, we compare this event with other similar happenings in Brazil and in Trinidad and Tobago.

Resumo: Reflexão sobre a tática e a estratégia anticapitalista em um contexto de vigência do modelo democrático-popular de gestão dos conflitos sociais. Com base na análise de lutas autônomas recentemente ocorridas no Brasil, conclui-se que a fragmentação constitui uma condição de nosso tempo histórico e, a partir dessa constatação, aventam-se algumas hipóteses de análise acerca do caráter contraditório das soluções postas em prática pela esquerda, em especial depois da revolta popular de junho de 2013.

From the analysis of autonomous conflicts recently occurred in Brazil, we conclude that fragmentation is a condition of our historical period, and, from that finding, we suggest some analysis hypotheses about the contradictory character of the solutions implemented by the left, mainly after the popular uprising in June 2013.
ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: This study was conducted to define the experiences of nursing activities in Gwangju area during the May 18 (5 . 18) Democratic Uprising over 30 years ago. METHODS: Data were collected in 2010 and 2011 through individual in-depth interviews. Ten nurses who worked in general hospitals in the Gwangju area during the 5 . 18 Democratic Uprising were interviewed using open-ended questions. Each interview lasted about 2~3 hours. Verbatim transcripts were analyzed using Van Kaam's method of phenomenological analysis. RESULTS: Four categories emerged from the analysis: anxiety about the incident which was experienced for the first time; progress of the 5 . 18 events and relationship to participants; changes in nursing environment; retrospection and wishes related to the 5 . 18 incident. CONCLUSION: This oral history study revealed more clearly of the experiences of nursing activities in the Gwangju area during the 5 . 18 Democratic Uprising. The data may provide a basis for writing history nursing in the community, and can be a basis for guidelines covering nursing care in crisis.
