Este livro é uma coletânea de textos sobre temas contemporâneos e locais em Linguística Aplicada, escritos por pesquisadoras e pesquisadores de mestrado e de doutorado do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras da UFPR. Por meio da metáfora do caleidoscópio, julgo que esta obra é uma bela imagem que se constitui por pedaços, cores, formas e combinações, formada pela mira e pelo movimento das autoras e dos autores, composta, portanto, por disparidade, heterogeneidade, diversidade, localidade e movimento; porque, um instante depois, já é outra coisa.
"Poliana Okimoto é a maior nadadora da história do Brasil." Cesar Cielo - (Campeão olímpico e recordista mundial) Em um país que valoriza pouco seus atletas, a trajetória de Poliana Okimoto serve de inspiração para uma legião de nadadores. Sua medalha olímpica, conquistada em 2016 no Rio de Janeiro na maratona aquática, foi a primeira obtida por uma mulher brasileira na natação. Poliana precisou de muito trabalho e paciência para chegar lá, percorrendo um caminho repleto de alegria, decepção, superação, pioneirismo e glória. Esta obra é o relato de uma história de perseverança, esforço e realização, que serve de exemplo para atletas e não atletas, além de um importante registro para a memória esportiva brasileira.

This book, which can be used as a text for teaching purposes, gives a fascinating, and authoritative treatment both the rights protected by the Inter-American system and of the way in which its institutions work. An important part of the book is a thorough, article by article account of the guarantee in the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man and in the American Convention on Human Rights of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights in the light of the jurisprudence of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and of the Commission's many country reports on the human rights situation in particular states. There are also chapters on the rights of indigenous peoples, amnesty laws and states of emergencies. The evolution and current methods of work of the Commission and the Court are set out at length and their achievements are critically assessed. The role of non-governmental organisations is also examined in this context. The book will be invaluable to all those interested in the protection of human rights in the Americas and international human rights law generally.
Gear Acquisition Syndrome, also known as GAS, is commonly understood as the musicians unrelenting urge to buy and own instruments and equipment as an anticipated catalyst of creative energy and bringer of happiness. For many musicians, it involves the unavoidable compulsion to spend money one does not have on gear perhaps not even needed. The urge is directed by the belief that acquiring another instrument will make one a better player. This book pioneers research into the complex phenomenon named GAS from a variety of disciplines, including popular music studies and music technology, cultural and leisure studies, consumption research, sociology, psychology and psychiatry. The newly created theoretical framework and empirical studies of online communities and offline music stores allow the study to consider musical, social and personal motives, which influence the way musicians think about and deal with equipment. As is shown, GAS encompasses a variety of practices and psychological processes. In an often life-long endeavour, upgrading the rig is accompanied by musical learning processes in popular music.

This book explores the different perspectives and historical moments of nationalism in Cyprus. It does this by looking at nationalism as a form of identity, as a form of ideology, and as a form of politics. The fifteen contributors to this book are scholars of different scientific backgrounds and present Cypriot nationalisms from an interdisciplinary framework, including approaches such as history, political science, psychology, and gender studies. The chapters take a historical approach to nationalism and argue that the world of nations, ethnic identity, and national ideology are neither eternal, nor ahistorical nor primordial, but are rather socially constructed and function within particular historical and social contexts. As a land that was, and still is, marked by opposed nationalisms – that is, Greek and Turkish – Cyprus constitutes a fertile ground for examining the history, the dynamics, and the dialectics of nationalism.
