The Transatlantic Circulation of Novels Between Europe and Brazil, 1789-1914

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2017-03-28

  • Publisher: Springer

This book brings a renewed critical focus to the history of novel writing, publishing, selling and reading, expanding its viewing beyond national territories. Relying on primary sources (such as advertisements, censorship reviews, publisher and bookstore catalogues), the book examines the paths taken by novels in their shifts between Europe and Brazil, investigates the flow of translations in both directions, pays attention to the successful novels of the time and analyses the critical response to fiction in both sides of the Atlantic. It reveals that neither nineteenth century culture can be properly understood by focusing on a single territory, nor literature can be fully perceived by looking only to the texts, ignoring their material existence and their place in social and economical practices.

Views on Eighteenth Century Culture

  • Categories: Art

This book provides significant new insights into the Enlightenment in Portugal and its relationships with other European cultural movements using Eugénio dos Santos (1711–1760) as a common reference point. Eugénio dos Santos was a Portuguese architect and city planner who, among other projects, was responsible for the plans to rebuild Lisbon after the earthquake of 1st November 1755. His artistic and technical training, architectural production, aesthetic preferences and some of the books in his private library point to a person who embodied the transition between two moments in Portuguese culture, with their specific characteristics and particular reception of the practices and ideas that circulated among European intellectuals and practitioners. Over the 18 chapters of this volume, several specialists in different disciplinary areas discuss ideas, libraries, printed and handwritten documents, drawings, printing techniques, and architects, philosophers and writers of the 18th century, in order to offer a broad view of a time period closely associated with the construction of modernity.

História Torres

TORRES: UMA VIAGEM NO TEMPO! Esse livro é uma máquina do tempo. Através dele você fará uma “viagem no tempo” pela História de Torres. Por exemplo, pode retroceder seis mil anos e encontrar os índios que habitavam na região. Seu extermínio, o canibalismo por eles praticado. Ou quem sabe 150 milhões de anos e descobrir como se deram as formações rochosas de basáltos, através dos derramamentos vulcânicos da região. Ou ainda retornar 100 anos e acompanhar a saga de Picoral descobrindo a vocação Turística de Torres. Pouco antes, cerca de 120 anos, presenciar um fuzilamento militar no Morro do Farol. Você também descobrirá erros na História oficial de Torres, graças às...

História do Rio Grande do Sul

Diante da necessidade do conhecimento da realidade regional, especialmente nos estudos de 1º e 2º graus, para uma compreensão quase intuitiva da realidade maior, no caso a realidade brasileira, Fidélis Dalcin Barbosa lançou uma primeira edição de sua História do Rio Grande do Sul, em forma de síntese, mas logo percebeu que este trabalho poderia ser enriquecido. Sua segunda edição, distanciada da primeira para dar tempo à pesquisa mais ampla, vem enriquecida de elementos mais próximos à realidade atual. Assim, nesta nova edição, acentua o estudo da vida indígena, da vida colonial através da história das migrações ... Do prefácio
