Os Sons das Malocas e os Ambientes Culturais da Cidade de São Paulo nos Anos 1950
Durante o século XX, a cidade de São Paulo atravessou um processo de urbanização muito intenso que, em 1953, transformou-a na maior cidade do Brasil. Esse fato mereceu uma reflexão a partir das seguintes questões: como e em qual ambiente cultural se desenvolveu o samba paulista na década de 1950? Quais suas relações com a história da cidade? Quais foram as suas principais características? Quais suas relações com a indústria cultural? A realização de um estudo sobre isso deveria abordar as temáticas a partir de uma metodologia que considerasse as relações teóricas entre história, literatura, música, radiodifusão e territorialidades na capital paulista.

Dark Prisms
The mythological, folkloric, and religious beliefs of Western culture have resulted in a long and ongoing history of esoteric themes in theatre from the Middle Ages to the present in Spain and the America. Now Robert Lima, a noted comparatist, brings to bear on this material his wide knowledge of the world of the occult. Lima defines the terms "occult" and "occultism" broadly to embrace the many ways in which humans have sought to fathom a secret knowledge held to be accessible only through such supernatural agencies as alchemy, angelology, asceticism, astrology, demonolatry, divination, ecstasy, magic, necromancy, possession, Santeria, séances, voudoun, and witchcraft. The dramatic works covered range from medieval materializations of Hell to the Golden Age plays of Lope de vega, Tirso de Molina, and Calderón de la Barca, to modern stage works by Valle-Inclán, García Lorca, Casona, Miras, and a number of significant Afro-Brazilian and Caribbean dramatists. The concluding comprehensive bibliography of the drama of the occult is invaluable.

The Devotion and Promotion of Stigmatics in Europe, c. 1800–1950
In the nineteenth century a new type of mystic emerged in Catholic Europe. While cases of stigmatisation had been reported since the thirteenth century, this era witnessed the development of the ‘stigmatic’: young women who attracted widespread interest thanks to the appearance of physical stigmata. To understand the popularity of these stigmatics we need to regard them as the ‘saints’ and religious ‘celebrities’ of their time. With their ‘miraculous’ bodies, they fit contemporary popular ideas (if not necessarily those of the Church) of what sanctity was. As knowledge about them spread via modern media and their fame became marketable, they developed into religious ‘celebrities’.
Orthographies in Early Modern Europe
This volume provides, for the first time, a pan-European view of the development of written languages at a key time in their history: that of the 16th century. The major cultural and intellectual upheavals that affected Europe at the time - Humanism, the Reformation and the emergence of modern nation-states - were not isolated phenomena, and the evolution of the orthographical systems of European languages shows a large number of convergences, due to the mobility of scholars, ideas and technological innovations throughout the period.
