O Grampus era o veleiro mais importante do período imperial, responsável por transportar cargas e passageiros entre Brasil e Portugal, sendo comandado com mão de ferro pelo capitão Nelson Barnard. Contudo, em setembro de 1853, o navio simplesmente desapareceu em pleno Atlântico, levando consigo dezenas de almas para o fundo do oceano. Os poucos sobreviventes parecem ter sido acometidos por uma espécie de loucura coletiva, pois os seus relatos envolvem criaturas com olhos em brasas e presas compridas, que vagavam à noite em busca de sangue humano. Falam também sobre desaparecimentos, assassinatos, corpos desmembrados, um fantasma vermelho e um corvo escarlate, mas ninguém sabe o que ...

Era o ano da graça de Nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo de 1850. A noite estava tempestuosa e São Paulo era uma cidadezinha pacata, com cerca de 20.000 habitantes. Em uma taverna suspeita, um grupo de homens bêbados confessa os seus crimes entre doses de conhaque e baforadas de charuto. Na Academia de Ciências Jurídicas e Sociais, os rapazes descobrem os prazeres da vida estudantil: amizades, bailes, festas, serenatas, passeios e as delícias e agruras do amor. Maneco de Azevedo – um jovem brilhante, sensível e um tanto macabro – divide o tempo entre os poemas, os códigos legais, os amigos e a paixão pela rainha dos bailes paulistanos, a irresistível Laurita. Porém uma onda de assassin...

Context as Other Minds

Givon's new book re-casts pragmatics, and most conspicuously the pragmatics of sociality and communication, in neuro-cognitive, bio-adaptive, evolutionary terms. The fact that context, the core notion of pragmatics, is a framing operation undertaken on the fly through judgements of relevance, has been well known since Aristotle, Kant and Peirce. But the context that is relevant to the pragmatics of sociality and communication is a highly specific mental operation — the mental modeling of the interlocutor's current, rapidly shifting belief-and-intention states. The construed context of social interaction and communication is thus a mental representation of other minds. Following a condensed ...
