  1. “On such a full sea are we now afloat:” Travelling through Oceans, Writings and Images in Early Modern Times. For centuries, the Western notion of exoticism and otherness comprehended a relatively limited space, whose epicentre was the Mediterranean Sea. With the maritime expansion on the Atlantic, initiated by the Iberian nations in the fifteenth century and afterwards undertaken by other European countries, deep changes would occur in every domain. Horizons were broadened, geographically, and conceptual. 2018. Relvas, Maria de Jesus C.. http://hdl.handle.net/10400.2/7804.

  3. Beyond time and oblivion : Sir Robert Sidney’s autograph manuscript. Dealing with ancient manuscript or old printed texts often constitutes a difficult task, especially to philologists and editors, for two main reasons: the precarious state of preservation of the documents and the uncertainty regarding their origin, authenticity and authorship. These problems are aggravated by spurious versions, due to the publication of truncated works, poorly supervised miscellan. 2015. Relvas, Maria de Jesus C.. http://hdl.handle.net/10400.2/5310.
  4. Myths (re)told in the iconography of Elizabeth I. The English sixteenth century constitutes a double re-naissance, for it recovers both the Classical Antiquity and the Italian Quattrocento in a most peculiar way. It was, in fact, a re-covery, but also a re-discovery, a re-visitation and a re-writing: of theories, themes, matters, characters and myths, skilfully amalgamated with the native substratum, the Breton matter and the medieval courtly tra. 2015.

  5. Beholding a ‘Brave New World’: Sir Walter Raleigh’s The Discovery of Guiana and William Shakespeare’s The Tempest. During the 15th and 16th centuries, the idea of the world was broadened on an unprecendented scale. The Portuguese and the Spaniards dominated a first stage in the maritime expansion and even divided the planet into two halves. Those times were primarily characterized by a need to overcome the fear of the unknown, to explore and cross the oceans, to reach coast after coast and to register in maps. 2015. Relvas, Maria de Jesus C.. http://hdl.handle.net/10400.2/6027.
  6. Sir Walter Raleigh and Guiana : a mysterious search, a metaphorical discovery. The essay analises Sir Walter Raleigh's report (1595) of his search for Guiana, as well as his reflection on the New World and its inhabitants, which is, in many aspects, different from his contemporaries.. 2013.

  7. On righteousness and dignity : two challenging issues since early modern times. Concepts such as righteousness, equality, tolerance and freedom are nowadays considered fundamental issues that should prevail in any society. Balance and righteousness thrive however on a very thin layer. We are, in fact, living in an era of duality and antithetical paradigms. This essay approaches two Renaissance authors who dealt with the same matters in their works, at a very different time an. 2013. Relvas, Maria de Jesus C.. http://hdl.handle.net/10400.2/5312.
  8. A Villain and a Monster — The Literary Portrait of Richard III by Thomas More and William Shakespeare. The process of vilification of Richard III started at the end of the fifteenth century, when a well-planned policy of Tudor propaganda was set in motion by Henry VII himself, who commissioned a series of historiographical writings, mainly aiming at the solidification of the newly founded dynasty. One of the strategies, probably the major one, consisted in the definitive annihilation of the last Pl. 2013. Relvas, Maria de Jesus Crespo Candeias Velez. http://hdl.handle.net/10451/10059.

  10. The renaissance portraits of two kings and one cardinal. At a time when the word biography had not yet been coined, the written portraits were called 'Lives' and contain such an abundance of puzzling elements that one is led to wonder about the characters created by the authors and the intentions they had to shape them in such a way. The Renaissance concepts of history, literature, fiction and factual truth, as well as the authors’ special involvement i. 2010. Relvas, Maria de Jesus C.. http://hdl.handle.net/10400.2/4978.

  12. Evaluating continuous assessment quality in competence-based education online : the case of the e-Folio. The pedagogical model, in use at Universidade Aberta (UAb) since 2007, is based on four cornerstones: student-centered learning; flexibility; interaction; digital inclusion. The cornerstone of digital inclusion is particularly important in the context of a fully virtual learning environment such as the one offered at UAb. The article was the result of a research project developed at the Distance E. 2009.

  13. A Sociedade de Corte Isabelina : um microcosmo de cultura e cerimonial no espaço europeu de quinhentos. Os reinados de Henrique VIII e Isabel I de Inglaterra decorrem durante o peri´odo lato do Renascimento, com toda a sua complexidade, diversidade de influe^ncias e grande dinamismo. Numa época ímpar, assistiu-se ao alargar do mundo, a` percepc¸a~o de novos espac¸os, novas gentes e estranhas formas de vida; assistiu-se ao substituir extraordina´rio de uma concepc¸a~o do universo, que alterou radical. 2008.

  14. The road to rulership : Henry Tudor, King of England. At the close of the Wars of the Roses, a new dynasty was founded by a man lacking a prince’s education; moreover, his weak claim to the throne of England gave rise to a set of serious problems. These two crucial, interrelated elements are central in Francis Bacon’s biographical account of Henry VII.

  16. The literary construction of a monstrous portrait : King Richard III by Thomas More and William Shakespeare. Thomas More’s narrative The History of King Richard the Third (ca. 1514) and William Shakespeare’s play King Richard III (ca. 1591) may be considered the epitomes of a tradition that has for ever vilified the last Plantagenet monarch of England. Even in later fictional works, it is hard to come across a more distorted and evil character, whose outward appearance faithfully mirrors his inner moral. 2003.

  17. Baltasar Gracián and the ethics of the Renaissance. The essay approaches the ethics relevantly inherent to the Renaissance courtly society of Europe, in general, and of England, in particular. Its most vivid and symptomatic formulation is contained in the works by two authors of the Continent who, in different ways, deeply influenced the Elizabethan authors: Baldassare Castiglione’s Il Cortegiano (1502; 1528) and Baltasar Gracia´n’s El he´roe (1637. 1998.

The essay approaches the lyric sequence written by Sir Robert Sidney (1563-1626) in the Elizabethan age, by mainly exploring its unique formal structure, which encloses an alternative sequence formed by a re-numbering of several poems.. 1997.
