Patrimônio cultural, memória e paisagem: a inserção das prisões na cidade de Belém do Pará na transição dos séculos XIX-XX : estudos de casos do antigo presídio São José e da prisão modelo panóptico

Abstract

Under the title "Cultural heritage, memory and landscape: the insertion of prisons in the city of Belém do Pará in the transition between the 19th and 20th centuries: case studies of the Old São José Prison and the Panopticon Model Prison", we approach the process of erasing the marginal memory, through a methodology that consists of destroying, modifying or re-signifying the architectural cultural heritage, linked to the prison, we seek to answer whether the prisons in analysis were inserted in the Belenense landscape in determined places according to some technical criterion; and if the erasure of the landscape and the marginal memory by the public authorities was intentional. We use theoretical references that relate to New History and Urban Archeology, approaching the Archeology of Landscape. To this end, we adopted the methodology of bibliographic and field research, through which it was possible to find and characterize traces or evidence from the corresponding periods and how they are currently found. The results obtained present this characterization, highlighting gaps, correlations and limitations, based on available data and information
