The sabugiense sertão bathed by airs of modernity: the sabugi reservoir (1958 - 1965)
Sertão. Seridó. Damping.
Our research, entiled O sertão sabugiense bathed by airs of modernity: the sabugi reservoir (1958 -1965), has as problematic to understand how the sabugiense population received the construction of the sabugi reservoir, how this work was meant by the local population so for this analysis, we worked with the time frame from 1958 (the year in which the construction oh the Weir was requested) to 1965 (the year the Weir was inaugurated). To answer this question, we will use a very heterogeneous documental collection, covering diferent types: textual (letters, land assessments, newspapers, proxies, price tables for expropriation); iconographic (06 photographs related to the construction of the reservoir) and audiovisual (video of the inauguration of the Sabugi reservoir). In addition to these, we will use oral sources. About the methodology and study of these sources, we catalog the sources, classifying them by themes and typologies; we cross the data found in the diferent sources; we produce tables and think about the historicity and production of the newspapers used in the research.
