Práticas Integrativas e Complementares em Saúde:
É comum confundir Práticas Integrativas e Complementares em Saúde (Pics) com práticas alternativas, embora sejam recursos distintos.

Lies and Sorcery
Elsa Morante is one of the titans of twentieth-century literature—Natalia Ginzburg said she was the writer of her own generation that she most admired—and yet her work remains little known in the United States. Written during World War II, Morante’s celebrated first novel, Lies and Sorcery, is in the grand tradition of Stendhal, Tolstoy, and Proust, spanning the lives of three generations of wildly eccentric women. The story is set in Sicily and told by Elisa, orphaned young and raised by a “fallen woman.” For years Elisa has lived in an imaginary world of her own; now, however, her guardian has died, and the young woman feels that she must abandon her fantasy life to confront the truth of her family’s tortured and dramatic history. Elisa is a seductive, if less than reliable, spinner of stories, and the reader is drawn into a tale of secrets, intrigue, and treachery, which, as it proceeds, is increasingly revealed to be an exploration of a legacy of political and social injustice. Throughout, Morante’s elegant writing—and her drive to get at the heart of her characters’ complex relationships and all-too self-destructive behavior—holds us spellbound.
Contemporary Spanish Film from Fiction
Deveny (Spanish, Western Maryland College, Westminster) examines cinematic versions of post-Civil War narratives that debuted during between 1965 and 1995. He begins with an overview of the critical problems of screen adaptations and offers a global analysis of film adaptations of works by 57 authors, including Camilo Jose Cela, Migual Delibes, and Luis Martin Santos and recent best-selling authors such as Antonio Munoz Molina and Juan Madrid. He emphasizes how the end of dictatorship allowed filmmakers to reinterpret Spanish history and literature.
A History of Odessa, the Last Italian Black Sea Colony
This study reconstructs the Italian protohistory of Odessa, founded in 1794 by the immigrants from Genoa and Naples, Venice and Palermo. Foreword; Dr. Anna Makolkin's monograph Odessa, the Last Italian Colony, is a carefully researched and accurate account of the foundation of the port city of Odessa(1794), and tells of the part, played by the Italian immigrants in this historical event which lead to the successful exploration of the Black Sea frontier - Novorossiia/New Russia. The materials about this obscure migration have been scattered in archives of Italy and Ukraine, and most 19th and 20th century historians, intimidated by radical nationalism, politics and geopolitics of Europe, and post-colonial trends did not have sufficient courage to address the topic. Italians were not just another wave of Odessa immigrants, not just another part of her multicultural mosaic, they were her founders and colonizers of the region.
