French Rococo Ébénisterie in the J. Paul Getty Museum

The first comprehensive catalogue of the Getty Museum’s significant collection of French Rococo ébénisterie furniture. This catalogue focuses on French ébénisterie furniture in the Rococo style dating from 1735 to 1760. These splendid objects directly reflect the tastes of the Museum’s founder, J. Paul Getty, who started collecting in this area in 1938 and continued until his death in 1976. The Museum’s collection is particularly rich in examples created by the most talented cabinet masters then active in Paris, including Bernard van Risenburgh II (after 1696–ca. 1766), Jacques Dubois (1694–1763), and Jean-François Oeben (1721–1763). Working for members of the French royal f...

O leito de prata dos duques de Cadaval

O terceiro número da série de monografias "Coleções Em Foco | Palácios Nacionais | Sintra Queluz Pena" é consagrado a uma peça extraordinária do acervo do Palácio Nacional de Sintra: o designado "leito Cadaval". Este leito de dossel em pau-preto de Moçambique, torneado e guarnecido com prata, é único nas coleções nacionais pela sua raridade e valor museológico. Propriedade da casa ducal de Cadaval até meados do século XX, este leito de aparato é um testemunho notável do outrora rico património da coroa portuguesa e das grandes casas nobres na segunda metade do século XVII. É o único exemplar conservado em território português dos leitos torneados e guarnecidos de prata de que até hoje se tinha apenas notícia documental. Um leito deste tipo teria sido usado no Real Paço de Sintra nas cerimónias fúnebres de D. Afonso VI (†1683), que tiveram lugar nas salas das Pegas e dos Cisnes.

El ocaso del antiguo régimen en los imperios ibéricos

Las conexiones entre distintos procesos históricos desarrollados a uno y otro lado de las fronteras ibéricas nos invitan a insistir en dos cuestiones fundamentales. En primer lugar, la importancia de la mirada conjunta a la hora de estudiar este periodo crucial en dos monarquías que estuvieron unidas cuando se definían algunos de los rasgos más relevantes de sus imperios; y, en segundo lugar, la necesidad de descentralizar este análisis colocando en primer plano una diversidad de actores y paisajes que en toda América Latina —y con independencia de su pertenencia a una y otra monarquía— dieron diferentes respuestas a los proyectos reformistas y a la crisis imperial desatada con las invasiones napoleónicas a la Península Ibérica. El ocaso del antiguo régimen en los imperios ibéricos reúne dieciséis artículos que analizan aspectos de características similares en los imperios de España y Portugal, incluyendo sus territorios ultramarinos, durante el tránsito del siglo XVIII al XIX.

Human-Robot Interaction

This book offers the first comprehensive yet critical overview of methods used to evaluate interaction between humans and social robots. It reviews commonly used evaluation methods, and shows that they are not always suitable for this purpose. Using representative case studies, the book identifies good and bad practices for evaluating human-robot interactions and proposes new standardized processes as well as recommendations, carefully developed on the basis of intensive discussions between specialists in various HRI-related disciplines, e.g. psychology, ethology, ergonomics, sociology, ethnography, robotics, and computer science. The book is the result of a close, long-standing collaboratio...
