O Código de Processo Civil contempla importantes e eficientes ferramentas de repressão a condutas abusivas que porventura sejam perpetradas, porém, ainda há vasta margem para aperfeiçoamentos. Nesta toada, a presente obra aborda o tema do abuso do direito de demandar, importando a teoria da Sham Litigation a partir de precedentes formados nos Estados Unidos, com vistas a fortalecer a tutela da boa-fé objetiva e reafirmar a tenacidade dos direitos fundamentais e do Estado Democrático de Direito. A teoria da Sham Litigation se alicerçou enfaticamente no âmbito do direito concorrencial. Todavia, não há qualquer empecilho de que a ratio decidendi dos precedentes que a formaram seja ap...
A obra que tenho enorme satisfação em prefaciar é a versão comercial do Estudo de Caso de Mestrado Profissional de Eduardo Passold Reis, intitulada “Má-fé processual: Estudo sobre coerência judicial e critérios de decisão”. Trata-se de trabalho primoroso, cuja elaboração tive a alegria de orientar perante o Programa de Mestrado Profissional em Direito da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina em convênio com o Tribunal de Justiça de Santa Catarina, por meio da sua respectiva Academia Judicial. Desde a primeira leitura do texto, salta aos olhos do observador menos atento a criatividade e a dedicação do autor, que certamente não mediu esforços para construir uma obra absolutamente original.
"A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula" is the second comparative history of a new subseries with a regional focus, published by the Coordinating Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association. As its predecessor for East-Central Europe, this two-volume history distances itself from traditional histories built around periods and movements, and explores, from a comparative viewpoint, a space considered to be a powerful symbol of inter-literary relations. Both the geographical pertinence and its symbolic condition are obviously discussed, when not even contested.Written by an international team of researchers who are specialists in the field, this history is the first attempt at applying a comparative approach to the plurilingual and multicultural literatures in the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of comprehensiveness is abandoned in favor of a diverse and extensive array of key issues for a comparative agenda."A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula" undermines the primacy claimed for national and linguistic boundaries, and provides a geo-cultural account of literary inter-systems which cannot otherwise be explained.
In "The Jesuit Order as a Synagogue of Jews" the author explains how Christians with Jewish family backgrounds went within less than forty years from having a leading role in the foundation of the Society of Jesus to being prohibited from membership in it. The author works at the intersection to two important historical topics, each of which attracts considerable scholarly attention but that have never received sustained and careful attention together, namely, the early modern histories of the Jesuit order and of Iberian purity of blood concerns. An analysis of the pro- and anti-converso texts in this book (both in terms of what they are claiming and what their limits are) advance our understanding of early modern, institutional Catholicism at the intersection of early modern religious reform and the new racism developing in Spain and spreading outwards.

A woman’s feminist awakening drives a hypocritical village to madness in rural Uruguay in this "wild, brutal paean to freedom" (NPR.org). Shortlisted for the National Translation Award "Somers' feminism is profound, and complicated." —NPR.org “A surreal, nightmarish book about women’s struggle for autonomy—and how that struggle is (always, inevitably) met with violence.” —Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body and Other Parties When The Naked Woman was originally published in 1950, critics doubted a woman writer could be responsible for its shocking erotic content. In this searing critique of Enlightenment values, fantastic themes are juxtaposed with brutal depictions of misogyny and violence, and frantically build to a fiery conclusion. Finally available to an English-speaking audience, Armonía Somers will resonate with readers of Clarice Lispector, Djuna Barnes, and Leonora Carrington.
