CARTOGRAFIA DO LITORAL DE FORTALEZA NA DÉCADA DE 1940 (cartography of the coastaline from Fortaleza in the 1940s)
Abstract
O artigo trata do processo de implantação do Plano Diretor de
José Otacílio Saboya Ribeiro para a cidade de Fortaleza no ano de 1947,
destacando sua influência na formação socioespacial do litoral do
município. Privilegiando a análise da forma urbana, buscou-se com o
estudo das imagens cartográficas, cotejando e confrontando com os
registros documentais, à compreensão de como se deu o processo de
ocupação da zona costeira fortalezense na década de 1940. Fundado em
reflexão caracterizadora da cartografia na construção ideológica do
espaço urbano, realizou-se a análise dos registros cartográficos de
Saboya Ribeiro, correlacionando-os com outras fontes, notadamente
periódicos (Correio do Ceará e O Povo). A partir da reflexão de tais
imagens cartográficas é possível perceber a busca na década de 1940 por
um novo direcionamento para o litoral fortalezense, passando a servir
como ferramentas para solicitação à intervenção pública na estrutura
urbana citadina com a proposição na mudança dos usos e ocupações,
tornando esse recorte histórico como marco que redirecionou a forma
urbis do litoral de Fortaleza.

ABSTRACT
This
paper discusses the implementation of Fortaleza Master Plan process
proposed by José Otacílio Saboya Ribeiro in the year of 1947,
highlighting its influence on the socio-spacial coastline of the
municipality. The focus of this analysis is on the urban form and we
sought to study the topographical plans, comparing and contrasting them
with the available documents, so we intend to understand how was the
process of occupation of Fortaleza coastline in 1940 decade. The study
is based in the topographic plan and seeks the ideological construction
of the urban space. In this analysis we used the Saboya Ribeiro’s
cartographic images file, correlating them with other sources,
especially newspapers (Correio do Ceará and O Povo). From the discussion
of those topographic plans it is possible to notice the searching of a
new direction to the coastline of Fortaleza in the 1940 decade. The
coastline was employed as an argument for public urban structure
interventions with the changing of the use and occupation of the land,
making this historic period as a milestone that redirected the forma
urbis of Fortaleza coastline.
Key words: Coastline, Urbanization, Cartography, Fortaleza, Saboya Ribeiro.
RÉSUMÉ
L’article
traite du processus de mise en œuvre du Plan Directeur José Otacilio
Saboya Ribeiro pour la ville de Fortaleza en 1947, soulignant son
influence sur la formation socioespacial du littoral de la
municipalité. Centré sur l’analyse de la forme urbaine, nous avons
cherché à étudier des images cartographiques, en faisant des comparaison
et contraste avec les dossiers documentaires, de comprendre comment a
été le processus d’occupation de la zone côtière de Fortaleza dans les
années 1940. A partir d’une réflexion sur la cartographie dans la
construction idéologique de l’espace urbain, nous avons effectué
l’analyse des documents cartographiques de Saboya Ribeiro, en les
corrélant avec d’autres sources, notamment les quotidiens (Correio do
Ceará e O Povo). À partir de l’analyse de ces images cartographiques
c’est possible voir une nouvelle direction pour la côte de Fortaleza,
transmettre la demande de servir d’outils d’intervention publique dans
la structure urbaine de la ville avec la proposition de changement
d’occupation et d’usage du sol, faisant de cette période historique un
indicateur qui a redirigé la forma urbis la côte de Fortaleza.
