Hospital Universitário João de Barros Barreto: a significação cultural da arquitetura hospitalar moderna em Belém
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-11-10) LEAL, Larissa Silva; MIRANDA, Cybelle Salvador; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3254198738703536; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5913-989X
The cultural significance points to a valuation given by man, which encompasses several aspects, such as historical, social, aesthetic, architectural and even spiritual, thus making the human being the creative center of all significations. As an example of the historical building that houses the current João de Barros Barreto Hospital, we try to gather the multiple functional dimensions and the meanings connected to the architecture in order to characterize it as a form of assistance patrimony. The six-story monoblock building was built between 1938 and 1959, showing the influence of modern architecture precepts in the way of building public buildings in Brazil, translated mainly in the architectural detailing, such as the use of brise-soleils and cobogos in the rectilinear façades. In this context, the way the hospital's social agents create, register and propagate meanings is apprehended and interpreted through the ethnographic method, whose attribution also addresses the memories that permeate the former Barros Barreto Sanatorium, as well as demonstrates the articulation between architectural space and the relationships developed in it. Thus, the evidence of the importance of the perceptions of the social, historical and cultural contexts point to the process of patrimoniality, from the point of view of social agents, corroborating to demonstrate the importance of the recognition of a heritage based on lived experiences, narratives, affective relationships, in addition to history, which characterize its existence and, in the case of HUJBB, the resistance in face of the transformations given in the name of a modernization of the hospital space.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-05-05) SILVA, Camyla Lorena Torres; MIRANDA, Cybelle Salvador; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3254198738703536; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5913-989X
The Santa Casa de Misericórdia of Manaus / AM is one of the oldest public hospitals in Amazonas and its assistance and health activities are linked to the long tradition of the Misericórdias. His building is part of an area recognized as a Brazilian cultural heritage and a representative example of the historical period of rubber and eclectic architecture. After 140 years of providing health and charity services, the Santa Casa de Manaus has closed its doors in the midst of a serious financial crisis and its building has gradually suffered damage caused by abandonment, lack of maintenance and, subsequently, depredations. Through its patrimonial character and its important contribution in the history of the city, this work aims to contribute to the identification of the values denominated to its building for the understanding of its significant cultural understanding. From documentary and bibliographic research, from the ethnographic research method and from the application of the perception form, the existence of complementary and contrasting values, which when articulated, confer a high degree of significance at Santa Casa de Misericórdia architectural complex the key element for a composition of its meaning. In this way, a preliminary model of declaration of significance of faith elaborated, to contribute to the conservation actions that maintain their meaning and that can guide public policies for the management of this cultural heritage.
