Aqueles que merecem a opinião pública: justiça de paz, cidadania e mobilização política nas primeiras eleições no Grão-Pará (1827-1841)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-09-25) MOURA, Danielle Figuerêdo; RICCI, Magda Maria de Oliveira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4368326880097299
This thesis is devoted to studying the relationship between the first elections for representatives of the justice of the peace in Grão-Pará and the Cabano movement. Its scope ranges from 1827, with the regulation of this position, until 1833, when the third election for this position took place since its creation and which preceded the Cabano movement. The in-depth study of correspondence between municipal councils, judicial authorities, and provincial presidents, especially those concerning municipal elections, has proven that blacks, indigenous people and mixed-race people mobilized around local elections and assumed important positions in the legal and civil administration of towns, parishes and places in Grão-Pará between 1828 and 1834. It is demonstrated that despite the set of laws inaugurated with the 1824 Charter not extending many of its benefits to this segment of the population, the reality was quite different, since the appropriations made by the new legal devices informed daily struggles for expanding citizenship. This thesis argues, therefore, that the Cabano movement was born out of ethnic and political conflicts that had as an important stage the elections of lay judges. The experience of political mobilization, both in their election, deposition and acclamation, was in constant dialogue with a repertoire of new laws and a constitutional and liberal vocabulary, and was therefore fundamental to the emergence and diversity of dynamics of the Cabano movement. Finally, it is shown that the discussion raised by the Cabano movement in the Court in Rio de Janeiro, about the need to defend an idea of “order” and “civilization”, contributed to the arguments of the “lawyers” for the review of the justice of the peace, which culminated in its national reformulation in 1841.

Arranjos, lei e consolidação do império: aplicação da lei das terras e apropriação das fazendas nacionais do Rio Branco (1830-1880)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-09-18) SANTOS, Maria José dos; FONTES, Edilza Joana Oliveira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9447513031256372
This thesis investigated the process of application of the Law no. 601 of 1850, known as the Land Law in the Province of Amazonas and its developments on the border of Rio Branco. It was sought to understand the social, political and economic constitution of the subjects that formed the group of landlords from the creation of the Fazenda Reais and private farms, analyzing, afterwards, the creation of the Upper Amazon Region, setting up tents and the expansion process of farms after the extinction of the Sesmarias Law. Historically, the region of Rio Branco has undergone intense territorial and political processes of disputes that threatened Portuguese domination and, successively, the consolidation of the Brazilian Empire on that frontier. The 1830s and 1870s were marked by the attempt of land grabbing by the United Kingdom, known as the Pirara conflict in Rio Branco, and by the pressure of the United States of America that demanded Brazil to open up for navigation and trade on the Amazon River. All these factors made the Brazilian Empire expend different dimensions for other regions, more flexible with military and other people, maintaining them as allies to defend, colonize and consolidate the empire at the border of Rio Branco. In this context, the lands of the national farms, which belonged to the State, were gradually incorporated into the private patrimony of the military and exiled, as well as lands considered vacant, which were also public patrimony. The Land Law was not enforced, since, according to it, the only form of access to land was the purchase, but it was used politically by the Empire to secure the support of the local landlord class. This process lasted until the 1870s, when this relationship began to have another dimension, much more rigorous, less attached to the local elite and disposed of more charges, especially on the part of the Treasury over the appropriation of assets belonging to the Treasury as the lands of the national farms of the Rio Branco, clear indications that the Brazilian Empire in the borders of the Amazon finally recognized itself consolidated.

Arte, Belém, do abstracionismo à visualidade Amazônica (1957-1985): transições movediças e tensões globais
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-04-30) COSTA, Gil Vieira; FIGUEIREDO, Aldrin Moura de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4671233730699231
This research addresses the visual arts in the artistic field specialized in Belém, especially in the period between 1957 and 1985. This period marks in the city the contact and the absorption of values and practices of the internationalist artistic currents, such as the modernist abstractionism, the postmodern vanguards and the contemporary art. The way in which the local field has established relations of openness and resistance to these currents is studied from the theories of coloniality. Usually, the 1960s and 1970s are seen as the moment when contemporary art established itself worldwide, so this thesis can be understood as a narrative of 'history of contemporary art'. In Belém, the consolidation of this artistic paradigm was experienced through shaky transitions – slow, discontinuous and hesitant – in which there was a clear dispute between global values and local practices. The tensions between 'global' and 'local', in the art produced in the city in that period, conditioned the emergence of important artistic projects, which still little known and debated. For many of these projects, the ideas and images of the Amazonia were fundamental components – a topic that can add new information and approaches to the debate about 'Brazilian art' in those decades.

Barão de Marajó: um intelectual e político entre a Amazônia e a Europa (1855-1906)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-11-16) COELHO, Anna Carolina de Abreu; SARGES, Maria de Nazaré dos Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2076421409418420
José Coelho da Gama e Abreu, the Baron of the Marajó, graduated in philosophy at the University of Coimbra, became respectable in the Portuguese intellectual circle, even his biographies were published in the press. He belonged to a rich and tradicional Family at Pará whose purchasing power and status were incresead by his marriage to Maria Pombo Brício. The Baron of the Marajó was a man who knew how to stay in power throughout his life performing different public offices during the Republican and Imperial periods. He began his career in 1855 as Director of Public Works in Pará, he was president of the provinces of Pará and Amazonas and congressman; It was a friend of Emperor Pedro II, but that did not stop him to become the first Republican Intendant of the Belém city, personally chosen by the governor Lauro Sodre. He ended his career as state senator in 1906, the year of his death. Popularizer of Amazon's interests in Europe, he was representative of Pará in the Universal Exposition in Paris in 1889 and at the Chicago World Fair in 1893. Despite half a century of public life, the Baron of the Marajó became better known as an intellectual who wrote reference books about Amazon, addressing issues of relevance to the definitions of Brazilian nationality and the specific interests of region his in the works: The Amazon, Amazons Regions and One Protest. His travels, published in From the Amazon to the Seine, Nile, Bosphoro and Danube - Notes of travel, were part of his training, and their reflections on European and Eastern cities have become critical in the performance of different public offices contributing to urban remodeling of the city in the second half of the nineteenth century. From these memories and forgetfulness, we seek to realize the political and intellectual trajectory of the Baron, an emblematic figure to the understanding of national formation in the second half of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Caminhos fluviais e mobilidade: os rios Guaporé, Mamoré e Madeira e a rota entre o Mato Grosso e o Grão-Pará (séculos XVII e XVIII)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-04-28) MELO, Vanice Siqueira de; CHAMBOULEYRON, Rafael Ivan; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7906172621582952; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1150-5912
In the mid-eighteenth century, the Guaporé, Mamoré and Madeira rivers became a river way used to establish communication between the Captaincy of Mato Grosso and the State of Grão-Pará and Maranhão. The historiography that analyzed the subject pointed out, notably, the importance of the Portuguese crown in the constitution of this way and the relevance of commercial activities for its consolidation. Although these axes of reflection are important, it is believed that they are not enough to analyze the composition of this river way. In this sense, this thesis argues how this way was also constituted from the mobility and interest of the people who, in expeditions, navigated these rivers and how this displacement was connected to other demands and was constituted, equally, from the interaction with the environment.

Os castanhais do sudeste do Pará: cotidianos e discursos (1930-1964)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-07-11) CARNEIRO, Aldair José Dias; PETIT PEÑARROCHA, Pere; ARENZ, Karl Heinz; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4213810951901055
The main objective of this research is to show that political factors were fundamental in the formation of the economic structure of Brazil Nut Zones in southeastern Pará, and that their development was marked by the ideologies and the political engagement of three leaders, namely Deodoro Machado de Mendonça, Joaquim de Magalhães Cardoso Barata and Nagib Mutran. With them, the Brazil Nut Zones in southeastern Pará were regulated, and the main period of political partisan intervention was registered between 1930 and 1964. We highlight, initially, the regulations employed in 1930, by the Intervenor of Pará Magalhães Barata, whose attitude contradicted the claims of the of previous Governments, representing the traditional landowner elite, especially Deodoro de Mendonça. At that moment, were born the political disputes that determined the dynamics of the Brazil Nut production in the region, characterized by baratism and antibaratism. This rivalry at state level was transferred to the Brazil Nut Zones of southeastern Pará by the local leader, Nagib Mutran. Thus, the political dispute over the Brazil Nut Zones remained until 1951, when Barata was defeated in the elections for governor of Pará. Since then, the federal projects for the economic valorization of the Amazon region, initiated in 1952, accelerated the appropriations of lands in the southeastern part of the state, which led to the weakening of the extractive economy and the economic collapse of the region's Brazil Nut Zones in the early 1960s. However, the Brazil Nut Zones in southeastern Pará were not confined to discourses and economic projects. Parallel to them, inside the production zones, there were the local Brasil Nut gatherers with their daily actions, peculiar to the environment of the forest. Because the Brazil nut economy is a seasonal activity, these inhabitants of the zones have become accustomed to other activities that, in turn, made part of the daily life in the forest. The inhabitants of the Brazil Nut Zones were not only gatherers, they were also farmers, hunters, fishermen and devotees. These activities, because they were all important and routine, directed the inhabitants of the Brazil Nut Zones to regulate their daily actions with a certain autonomy, not always in accordance with the political decisions.

A Cidade dos Lázaros: isolacionismo, políticas públicas e lepra no Pará (1900-1934)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-06-28) VIEIRA, Elis Regina Corrêa; SANJAD, Nelson Rodrigues; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9110037947248805; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6372-1185
At the end of the XIX century and the beginning of XX, leprosy went through a process of singularization marked by an intense debate about etiology, therapy and prophylaxis of the disease. In this context, there was a theoric effort to consolidate leprosy as a disease caused by a bacillus and transmitted by contagion. At the same time, if the disease was contagious and its means of transmission was uncertain, the idea of isolating the patients was the only way of avoiding the spread of the disease became strength. In Brazil, many doctors and intellectuals participated in an international network of scientists that debated about the disease. In the same context, the health movement demanded that the Union increase its responsibilities in public health. The leprosy prophylaxis was benefited by these discussions and the federal government started to implement several leprosariums in partnership with the state government. Lazarópolis do Prata, in the state of Pará, was created in this context. It was installed in 1923 and officially opened in June 1924. My thesis proposes that doctors created a model of isolation to Lazarópolis, however, the experience of different individuals recreated the senses of this isolation, challenging the hygienist ideal of a kind, disciplined, and submissive "lázaro" to the doctors. Thus, even an institution seen as a model faced challenges such as escapes and violations to the established norms.

Cidade e educação: memórias e experiências do ensino primário e ginasial em Breves – Marajó das Florestas (1943-1985)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-06-30) PUREZA, Enil do Socorro de Sousa; PACHECO, Agenor Sarraf; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5839293025434267
In order to understand the construction process of the city of Breves, in Marajó das Florestas, as a regional development hub, focusing on the 20th century, this research presented as a central thesis the assertion that educational experiences in primary and secondary education in the city of Breves , between the 1940s and 1980s, were of great importance for the formation, expansion of urban space and development of the municipality, attracting institutions, public and private services necessary for life in the 20th century to its structure. To arrive at the confirmation of this thesis, we started with the following problematizing questions: How were the city and education, and education and the city historically built in the territory of Breu, in the period from 1943 to 1985? How did the educational and sociocultural practices experienced by residents occur in the expansion and development of urban life? How did the implementation and/or strengthening of primary and secondary education take place in the city? From these guiding questions, the objectives of the research were: to analyze city and education and education and city through written, oral and visual documents, identifying historical-social changes and continuities in the ways of living in Brevense between the 1940s and 1980s; understand the trajectory of formation of the school group from 1943 in the city, the expansion and consolidation of primary education and follow the emergence of secondary education in the context of the 1960s/70s, its contributions to the expansion of the city and the visibility of the city in the regional and state scenario in times of military regime. Based on Social and Cultural History and dialoguing with written, oral and visual documents, the results indicate that Breves became the main educational center of the Marajós das Florestas, from the 1960s onwards with the implementation of the Miguel Bitar State Gym, which joined to primary education, which began in the 1940s with the Dr. Lauro Sodré, Boarding School Evangélico Amazonas and Colégio Santo Agostinho. They also showed that, in the education and city movement, the city became a regional reference in several sectors, and education played a sine qua non role, because through the training of people, multiple development possibilities were opened for Breves to become , nowadays, an educating city.

Marajó island or ilha Grande de Joanes had important role in the process of colonization of the Amazon. Its geographical position was considered strategic to ensure the safety and the supply of land located on the northern border, in addition to contributing directly and indirectly in the expansion of the border with the Spanish limits. Similarly, prominent role in the provision of genres and cattle to supply neighbouring areas, in particular, the State capital. The labor quota available was significant and removed for a long time the needs of the residents of the Crown itself, due to intense missionary activity developed with the Indians of that archipelago. In the period, the ancient villages Pombaline became towns and the indigenous peoples who lived there have been inserted in a new working relationship directed to ensure the continuity of its role. The resistance of the Indians of Brazil and its constant movement on the border.

Correndo o risco: Belém do Pará na charge de Biratan Porto no ocaso da ditadura (1978-1985)

Under what conditions did the civil-military dictatorship hand Belém do Pará over to the period of redemocratization? How did the civil society react to the violence and exclusion of dictatorial policies? These two questions permeate this study, which aims to decipher the situation of the main capital of the Amazon at the time, in the last seven years of the military government, a so-called period of openness, but which, despite suggesting a political softening, carried on with the signs of authoritarianism that characterized the 21 years of the regime. Based on Biratan Porto's cartoons, this study aims to answer those questions, using the methodological tools of the Social History of Art. Forty years after the events, the artist's critical humor offers an alternative reading to the press, which at the time was committed to the dictatorship. In its analytical framework of that period, Biratan's cartoon projects a unique perspective on popular resistance and suggests replacing an authoritarian clientelism with another, democratic, but still clientelism.

Da Vila do Cariperana à nova territorialização da Comunidade Remanescente Quilombola do América nas narrativas de moradores no contexto bragantino
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-07-23) SILVA FILHO, Claudio Padilha da; SOUZA, Ana Paula Vieira e; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8840758628880141; HTTPS://ORCID.ORG/0000-0003-3340-1866; MIRANDA, Leila Mourão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5665064793338456; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5273-1900
This thesis analyzes the historical process of the formation of the Quilombola Remnant Community of América (CRQ), in the municipality of Bragança-Pará, in the Para Amazon, motivated by the dispossession of residents of the village of Cariperana, due to differences of opinion, conflicts, interests and the reduction of the area in which they lived and were socially constituted in the work of agriculture and the production of water flour. The two communities are located in the municipality of Bragança, in the northeast of the state of Pará, and are configured in the context of the networks of territorial, socio-spatial, socio-cultural and political-legal meanings established by Brazil's 1988 Federal Constitution. The thesis takes the oral source approach, which assumes that oral discourses can be transformed into written texts that become witnesses (Meihy, Holanda, 2015). Thus, the empirical field research started by listening to the oral narratives of residents (the elders of the two villages), indicating collaborators and the guardians of memory. Methodologically, the thesis is based on the perspective of Social History in studies of history and memory, memory and identity. The historical analysis of the two villages in the constitution of the quilombola community is contextualized despite the origin and relations of the presence of black Africans and their descendants in order to highlight the distinct formation of their historicities. The constitution of a new territorialization based on public policies for racial equality is analyzed, discussing the diasporic movements in search of better living and working conditions in the Pará Amazon by black people and their descendants, which gave rise to the villages of Cariperana and Américo. The theoretical field on processes of territory, deterritorialization and new territorialization are approached from three perspectives: historical -temporal, spatial and symbolic, based on the theory of Haesbaert (2004; 2005). Data was collected using interviews with Afro-descendants who are descendants of the couple Gregório and Tereza, as well as their wife Andreza. Collaborators Júlio Monteiro, Nezila, João Paulo, Orlandina and Manoel Carivaldo took part. The analysis of the interpretative categories regarding the origin of the black population of the two villages was based on the theory of oral history by Thompson (1992), as well as the use of the graphic representation of the 'genogram' symbols to explain the family generations of both villages, indicating the descendants of the collaborators in this research. The results of the thesis point to reflections on the territory and the conflicts between families, the social, economic and cultural relationship in the activity of working with the planting of manioc and the kiln house, highlighting the network of territorial meaning with the certification of quilombola remnant communities in the Amazonian context. The social and cultural role of the presence of women as leaders in the territorial occupation movement, the ethnic-racial recognition of the Quilombola Remnant Community of América based on the implementation of the National Policy for the Sustainable Development of Traditional Peoples and Communities in accordance with Brazil's legal provisions. The thesis concludes that the village of Cariperana and the village of Américo gave rise to the new territorialization of the Quilombola Remnant Community of América, as well as the policies for valuing the history and culture of the African and Afro-Brazilian Continent, which recognized the ancestry of the territory in 2015 and in 2023 was titled.

De chegadas e partidas: migrações portuguesas no Pará (1800-1850)

This thesis discusses the Portuguese migration to the captaincy and then province of Pará, between 1800 and 1850. In this period marked by political ruptures - with the Independence of Brazil from Portugal and Pará Accession to the new country -, the emergence of a markedly antilusitanian movement and shades of extreme rivalry acquired through Cabanagem, we concern ourselves with the Lusitanian migration dynamics in Pará. Making use of privileged documents, which are the passport records issued in Portugal to the city of Belém do Pará, we proposed first to quantify the migration occurring between these two spaces in the investigated period. In a second moment of research, we proceed to establish a dialogue between serial and microanalysis history: of the 1339 individuals who immigrated to Pará, we follow the life paths of some of those immigrants from Portugal to Pará. Commercial business, family arrangements and strategies of economic and social integration are among other topics discussed throughout this thesis.

Do Grão-Pará à Amazônia: a invenção da região amazônica frente à centralização do Império brasileiro

This doctoral dissertation addresses the rise of the Amazon region in the second half of the 19th century. Despite focusing on the political sphere, the exchange of ideas, images, and practices regarding local economy at the time are also discussed. Considering the theoretical contributions of conceptual history, this work reflects upon the denaturalization of names and the meanings they assume over time. A corpus composed of a range of historical sources, among which the Annals of the Brazilian Parliament stand out, is used as support. This study contributes to the knowledge of Brazilian history based on the understanding of the regional differentiation and the power relations between the Empire/Central Government and the regional political elites, especially the Amazonian ones. From the Second Reign, the political and economic weight of the court elites, as well as those of the North of Bahia and Pernambuco (agricultural), increased considerably in the Brazilian scenario, which resulted in a greater regional differentiation in the country during that period. On the other hand, in the provinces along the waterways of the Amazon River, while the local elites sought to politically reorganize the area after the Cabanagem Revolt, the rubber industry grew. The political and economic landscape created an environment that fostered political regionalism and was used by the Amazonian elites in favor of their own interests, which could channel considerably the perception of backwardness in the region to the lack of attention of the Central Government. Moreover, it allowed them to increase their political clout, seen by the northern provinces, including the Amazon ones, as centered on the interests of the southern ones. It is argued that this movement, seen from the 1870s, brought about regional reorganization and encouraged the development of a new political identity, resulting in the renaming of the former province of Grão-Pará, known from then on as Amazon. Therefore, it was concluded that the political regionalism of the riverside provinces, considering the administrative centralization of the Brazilian Empire along with the ideas of the time, contributed decisively to the rise of the Amazon as a differentiated region in terms of territory, politics, and culture.

As drogas do sertão e a Amazônia colonial (1677-1777)

The present work is centered on the economic activity of drugs in the sertão, considered as the main economic activity in the Amazon during the colonial period. During the 20th century, it was agreed in much of historiography that this economic activity was under a missionary monopoly, mainly by the members of the Society of Jesus. And that, after the expulsion of the Jesuits, this predominance fell under the settlements of Indians created during the reign of D. José I, almost as direct heirs of the Jesuit monopoly. This thesis proposes a review of this perspective, seeking to demonstrate the active participation of other subjects in this economic activity, especially individuals. From the analysis of the sources, it is possible to highlight the participation of these subjects in the activity of drugs in the hinterland, and, at different times, it is possible to see the predominance of these individuals at the expense of both missionaries and canoes in Indian settlements. The present work is focused on the relationships, exercised in the activity of drugs in the sertão, within the colony itself, in a space commonly known as the Portuguese Amazon.

Emigrados do sertão: secas e deslocamentos populacionais Ceará-Piauí (1877-1891)

In the second half of the 19th century, some provinces in the North of the Brazilian Empire faced successive droughts, which caused the migration of the population residing in the affected areas to others where it was believed that there were resources that would enable survival. In 1877, a drought began in Ceará that lasted until 1879. At the end of the 1880s, the phenomenon once again visited Ceará, leaving its visible marks, mainly in 1888 and 1889. great was the displacement of men and women from Ceará to other Brazilian provinces, including the neighboring one, Piauí, which to a certain extent was already affected by drought in the form of a climatic phenomenon, starting to experience it as a social product. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the migration of people from Ceará to Piauí, between the years 1877 and 1891, considering these displacements an act of protagonism by men and women, poor and rich, who undertook the migratory journeys as a possibility of overcoming the difficulties imposed by the dry in its place of origin, choosing Piauí as route and also destination. As a basis for the time frame, the year in which the flow of people from Ceará became more intense towards the neighboring province, until the beginning of the 1890s, when welfare practices were still carried out through public assistance, and it was already possible to find people from Ceará constituting new families in Piauí. Among the sources defined for carrying out the research, there are the different newspapers published in Piauí and Ceará, as well as reports, messages, speeches, minutes, as well as letters and other documents from the Public Aid Commission. Thus, this thesis investigates the fact that, in addition to the migratory flows that occurred in the 19th century, already known in historiography, there were other migrant destinations undertaken by people from Ceará, including Piauí, which was also affected by droughts, seen as a receiving pole, either for those who were destined for that region, as it offered better conditions for survival than Ceará, or for those who were trying to cross to Maranhão and Pará. Because it was intense at many times, migration brought to Piauí the worsening of the consequences of the drought, requiring measures to combat its effects by the local government, which established the Public Aid Commissions, promoting welfare and moving part of the migrants to the fronts of work, either in public works or in Colonial Nuclei. Upon arriving in Piauí, migrants almost always found it difficult to survive, however, many managed to settle in that region and did not return to Ceará after the end of the drought. In this way, the thesis of the importance of Piauí in the migratory contexts of the 19th century is defended, as a receiving space for migrants from Ceará and a generator of multiple social experiences.

The presence of women in the history of science, especially in the Western world, is intertwined with the very constitution of this field of knowledge, but for a long time they have remained in the shadows of male performance. The historical science, since its birth, has marked the "man" as the central character of the narratives and, even though some scholars pointed out that women were included in this historical being, the disciplinary field of history kept them away from the stage of mankind's sociocultural formation. Scientific travel, from the 19th century on, proved to be a rich path to problematize this vision and the meanings of its silences, allowing interpretative connections between science, gender, and tourism. The history of female participation in the history of sciences in the Amazon in the 20th century, focusing on the performance and legacy of two women scientists, one German and one Brazilian, Emília Snethlage (1868-1929) from the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi - MPEG and Heloísa Alberto Torres (1895-1977) from the Museu Nacional do Rio de Janeiro - MNRJ, is the central theme of this thesis. These scientists, who lived experiences in regions of Brazil, especially in the Amazon, used tactics to build an important path in their fields of expertise in the natural sciences (ornithology) and humanities (anthropology). Their expeditions left important clues for the investigation of the history of tourism in the region, by presenting elements that made up the modern tourist phenomenon, such as lodging, food, and transportation. From this contextualization, the objective of this work was to investigate, in the light of studies on the history of science, gender and tourism, the female participation played, in particular, by Emília Snethlage and Heloísa Alberto Torres, in the construction of scientific knowledge in the Amazon in the early twentieth century, entering into their professional trajectories, strategies and their respective universes. In relation to the problematic, the question was asked about the importance of the role of women in the history of science in Brazil and how was the specific participation of these scientists in the Amazon? The research was based on Edward P. Thompson with Social History and his reflections on experience and tactics in everyday life; Carlo Ginzburg with Micro-History when entering in the indications of other paths taken by them; Michelle Perrot, Londa Schiebinger and Anne McClintock when referencing the role of women in the scientific field, helping to inquire forms of coloniality experienced in the daily life and work of Emília and Heloisa. As far as tourism studies are concerned, we dialogued with Paulo de Assunção, Alexandre Panosso Netto, and Helena Doris. A. B. Quaresma when dealing with the reflection of the tourist phenomenon and its openings in history and research in the Amazon. The methodological path traced clues of the performance of these women of science in the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, Guilherme de La Penha Archives. Files on Emília Snethlage were also searched in virtual media at the Biblioteca Nacional Digital and at the Museu de Astronomia e Ciências Afins, where a collection on Heloísa Alberto Torres was found. The documentary research started in 2018 and went on until mid-2022, mainly by virtual environment, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. To answer the problematic of the thesis, the research mapped and analyzed evidence in newspapers, articles produced by these scientists, personal and institutional letters, and novels, which made visible experiences and practices of these scientists in their institutions and in the daily life of research in the Amazon. Based on these findings, the thesis demonstrates that Emília and Heloísa played a fundamental role in the construction of science in the Amazon, through their actions and "world sensibilities", at a time of full hegemony of male domination in the scientific field. These women built their trajectories in ornithology and anthropology in such a way that their publications and scientific achievements spread beyond their institutions, making their mark in the history of science in Brazil and abroad. Furthermore, the trips have revealed new directions for understanding the tourist phenomenon in the Amazon region, since they have used the constituent elements of the practice in the activity. Thus, they contributed to think the emergence of a new epistemology about tourist trips.
