Exiles, Allies, Rebels
This is the first global study of the single most important intellectual and artistic movement in Brazilian cultural history before Modernism. The Indianist movement, under the direct patronage of the Emperor Pedro II, was a major pillar of the Empire's project of state-building, involving historians, poets, playwrights and novelists in the production of a large body of work extending over most of the nineteenth century. Tracing the parallel history of official indigenist policy and Indianist writing, Treece reveals the central role of the Indian in constructing the self-image of state and society under Empire. He aims to historicize the movement, examining it as a literary phenomenon, both ...
Capybara
The capybara is the neotropical mammal with the highest potential for production and domestication. Amongst the favorable characteristics for domestication we can list its high prolificacy, rapid growth rate, a herbivorous diet, social behavior and relative tameness. The genus (with only two species) is found from the Panama Canal to the north of Argentina on the east of the Andes. Chile is the only country in South America where the capybara is not found. The species is eaten all over its range, especially by poor, rural and traditional communities engaged in subsistence hunting. On the other hand, in large urban settlements wildlife is consumed by city dwellers as a delicacy. The sustainable management of capybara in the wild has been adopted by some South American countries, while others have encouraged capybara rearing in captivity.

Orgulho, o maior de todos os males
Se seus resultados andam na corda bamba ou ladeira a baixo, talvez esteja na hora de você refletir sobre o quanto o ORGULHO - formado pela crença da rejeição que cada um de nós alimentamos desde a infância e que nos faz cegar para a realidade - quase sempre nos leva a uma situação de vida difícil. Neste livro, Giovane mostra como identificar e desativar o orgulho que pode estar presente em você, limitando sua vida em todas as áreas e que você não tem consciência disso. O autor traz um guia de como identificar a presença do orgulho em sua vida, os prejuízos que ele vem causando para você e um passo a passo de como desativá-lo e eliminá-lo, para viver uma vida plena e feliz. "Quando desenvolvi esse tema, a minha ideia foi de ajudar as pessoas que podem estar em uma vida infeliz, escassa e limitante em todas as áreas da vida, assim como eu estava. Como esse conteúdo fez toda a diferença para mim, senti em meu coração a necessidade de compartilhar, para que você possa aplicar em sua vida e transformar os seus resultados". Através dessa leitura, você aprenderá alimentar sentimentos positivos e viver uma vida abundante.

Tropical Gothic in Literature and Culture
Tropical Gothic examines Gothic within a specific geographical area of ‘the South’ of the Americas. In so doing, we structure the book around geographical coordinates (from North to South) and move between various national traditions of the gothic (Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, etc) alongside regional manifestations of the Gothic (the US south and the Caribbean) as well as transnational movements of the Gothic within the Americas. The reflections on national traditions of the Gothic in this volume add to the critical body of literature on specific languages or particular nations, such as Scottish Gothic, American Gothic, Canadian Gothic, German Gothic, Kiwi Gothic, etc. This is significant ...
