A presente tese aborda dois álbuns fotográficos de finais do séc. XIX até agora
desconhecidos - que designámos por ‘álbuns FTM’ em honra do seu colecionador e
proprietário – e que, conforme se espera comprovar ao longo do trabalho, contêm os
retratos judiciários portugueses mais antigos que subsistiram até hoje. Sem quaisquer
suportes informativos relativamente à sua origem, os dois ‘álbuns FTM’ apresentam-se
como um ‘mistério policial’ cuja investigação é levada a cabo numa perspetiva alargada e
interdisciplinar dos Estudos de Cultura, seguindo uma metodologia que implica uma linha
empírico-interpretativa própria da cultura visual, com enfoques sobretudo nas abordagens
histórica, antropológica, social, política, estética e semiótica.
A estrutura do trabalho divide-se em duas partes: a primeira delineia o contexto
internacional em que se dá o advento e o desenvolvimento do retrato judiciário no
Ocidente; a partir dessa base, a segunda dedica-se à investigação do caso português dos
dois ‘álbuns fotográficos FTM’, num perímetro mais localizado e concreto, permitindo
uma pesquisa mais aprofundada que se espera tenha logrado desvendar os vários aspetos
desconhecidos destes retratos.
This thesis deals with two photo albums of the late 19th century hitherto unknown – designated 'FTM albums' in honor of their collector and owner – which, as we hope to prove throughout the work, contain the oldest Portuguese judiciary portraits that have survived to this day. With no information regarding their origin whatsoever, the two 'FTM albums' present themselves as a 'crime mystery' whose research is carried out in this thesis in a broad and interdisciplinary perspective of Cultural Studies. The followed methodology involves a ‘visual culture’ empirical and interpretative line, focusing mainly on historical, anthropological, social and political approaches, as well as aesthetics and semiotics. The structure of the thesis is divided into two parts: the first outlines the international context in which the advent and development of the judiciary portrait in the West take place; departing from that basis, the second is dedicated to the investigation of the Portuguese case of the two 'photo albums FTM', following a more localized and concrete perimeter, allowing a deepening research which we think has achieved to unravel the many unknown aspects of these portraits.
