- Built heritage research and education: Iberian experiencePublication . Martins, Ana Maria Tavares; Mosquera-Adell, Eduardo; Pérez-Cano, Teresa; Royo-Naranjo, Lourdes; Aladro-Prieto, José ManuelSince 2011, Doctorate studies in Spain are fully inserted in the European Higher Education Area. As a result, close collaborations within the Iberian space, i.e. between Spain and Portugal, have been possible. This paper aims to approach the internationalization of research in heritage, mostly regarding the experience of doctoral theses which themes have focused on Portuguese aspects, but with a look from the University of Seville. Case studies focusing on objectives, methodologies and lines of research, as well as the results, will be presented. Therefore, this paper will discuss the added value of internationalization in terms of research on heritage and the consequent development on the scale of the architectural object and the territory. Continuity and relevance of the themes developed in doctoral programmes completed in funded research projects will be detailed and analysed. This paper also discusses the results of this interconnection of subjects focusing on Portuguese aspects, linked to issues of architecture and heritage, which was developed in a Spanish University (University of Seville) in order to assess their relevance for the development of new lines of research in a Portuguese University (University of Beira Interior). This paper will provide a debate on the results and experiences that result from the internationalization of research in Heritage, thus emphasizing the interface between Architecture and Historical heritage, the development of new lines of research and a growing social awareness with contributions and consequences for Memory and Heritage management.
- Monastic Buildings: A Review About New Uses on Former Monasteries. The Portuguese Cistercian CasePublication . Martins, Ana Maria Tavares; Pérez-Cano, Maria Teresa; Mosquera-Adell, EduardoThis paper aims to present a review contribution to the history of the reform and renewal in the Portuguese Cistercian monasteries, throughout nine centuries of cultural and architectural history, but focusing on the new uses on former monasteries. The monastic Orders had a vital importance, both temporal and spatial, in the development of the urban fabric of cities. It must be considered that the transformation and development of the territory have been responsible for isolated buildings and settlements which have gradually been absorbed by the expansion of the urban fabric. The Cistercian Order played a remarkable role in the affirmation of Portugal (1143) and had an unquestionable position, since the medieval period, in the construction of a significant part of the Portuguese culture. The first Cistercian monasteries appeared in Portugal, in the 12th century, far from the urban context. Portuguese Cistercian monasteries became worthy examples of the European Cistercian architecture, although, over the time, they have been adapted, enlarged and transformed according to the styles of each epoch. The disappearance of the religious Orders, in 1834, and the successive owners adapted the monastic buildings to new uses. The monasteries have provided the contemporary city, especially from the 19th and 20th centuries, with expectant spaces or new fields of experimentation as diverse as rehabilitation, reuse, renovation and conversion. These are new spaces which adapt to new situations and new uses, thus updating themselves, so that the values of the present can be included and integrated into its history. Therefore, this paper aims to discuss, in which way the ideals and the realities of these monastic buildings and related urban spaces are divergent, but also a factor of city growth and cultural development.
