Natureza constitucional do precedente judicial e sua vinculação aos princípios jurídicos que formam a democracia
Antes da Revolução Francesa, as decisões judiciais eram fontes do Direito na Europa, subordinadas aos princípios de Direito Natural. O common law pautou-se pelo reconhecimento da isonomia dessas normas concluindo pela força vinculante dos princípios jurídicos extraídos de suas decisões judiciais. Nos EUA, a sua Constituição escrita representou a integração desses direitos naturais em declarações de direitos dos seus cidadãos. Ao contrário, os demais países europeus, influenciados pelo ideal revolucionário francês de refundação do Direito, reduziram as decisões judiciais ao status de fontes delegadas e, por consequência, a força vinculante dos precedentes judiciais co...
Direito em tempos de crise
O livro reúne renomados processualistas com o objetivo de pensar em soluções processuais para as crises ambientais, cíveis, penais e constitucionais que encontramos no ano de 2020. Há soluções processuais que devem ser pensadas no plano individual e outras que precisam ser pensadas no plano coletivo. Desastres ambientais como o ocorrido em Brumadinho desafiam novas soluções e perspectivas processuais. A pandemia do COVID-19 também traz novas questões processuais para serem pensadas, como as audiências telepresenciais, as questões de prisões penais e liberdades, revisões de contrato, violação de direitos fundamentais em nome da saúde e inúmeras outras questões que foram problematizadas na perspectiva processual. O livro é uma síntese das mais novas discussões processuais que estão sendo debatidas na atualidade.
Writing New Worlds
Writing New Worlds analyses the different ways in which travel literature constituted a fundamental pillar in the production of knowledge in the modern era. The impressive frequency of publication and the widespread circulation of translations and editions account for the leading and essential contribution of travel literature for a better understanding and awareness about the dynamics and practices associated with decoding and making sense of the prose of the world. These texts, in some cases accompanied by illustrations, covered a broad and extensive panoply of languages, grammars and ways of seeing, translating and writing new worlds. In drawing special attention to internationally less-studied sources from Portugal and Germany, the book shows how authors, scholars and artists between the 15th and 17th centuries responded to the challenges of modernity, and explores the cultural dynamics involved in grasping and understanding the New.
The Return of Hans Staden
Hans Staden’s sixteenth-century account of shipwreck and captivity by the Tupinambá Indians of Brazil was an early modern bestseller. This retelling of the German sailor’s eyewitness account known as the True History shows both why it was so popular at the time and why it remains an important tool for understanding the opening of the Atlantic world. Eve M. Duffy and Alida C. Metcalf carefully reconstruct Staden’s life as a German soldier, his two expeditions to the Americas, and his subsequent shipwreck, captivity, brush with cannibalism, escape, and return. The authors explore how these events and experiences were recreated in the text and images of the True History. Focusing on Stad...
Exploring the Interior
In this fascinating collection of essays Harvard Emeritus Professor Karl S. Guthke examines the ways in which, for European scholars and writers of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, world-wide geographical exploration led to an exploration of the self. Guthke explains how in the age of Enlightenment and beyond intellectual developments were fuelled by excitement about what Ulrich Im Hof called "the grand opening-up of the wide world”, especially of the interior of the non-European continents. This outward turn was complemented by a fascination with "the world within” as anthropology and ethnology focused on the humanity of the indigenous populations of far-away lands – an in...
