On the threshold
On the Threshold is a postmodern and futuristic novel. The story is based in the hinterland of Brazil, specifically in the Araguaia and Xingu region in the state of Mato Grosso, involving indigenous ethnicities in conflict with agribusiness and glimpsing the mysteries of the Roncador mountain range. It envisions how this reality will be transformed by the transoceanic railroad, the manned drones that will appear in the near future, altering the new agroecological and anthropological trends in the region, as well as different ways of life that will appear by 2028. The main characters are the indians Obajara and Kunhahendy, undercover federal intelligence agents who clash with the organized crime that migrated to the region at the beginning of the 21st century. They also show a new form of relationship, both erotically and socially, proposing a new pact of pleasure and conviviality, breaking with the decadence of traditional monogamy.
Antonio Vieira and the Luso-Brazilian Baroque
Preacher, politician, natural law theorist, administrator, diplomat, polemicist, prophetic thinker: Vieira was all of these things, but nothing was more central to his self-definition than his role as missionary and pastor. Articles in this issue were originally presented at a conference, “The Baroque World of Padre António Vieira: Religion, Culture and History in the Luso-Brazilian World,” Yale University, November 7–8, 1997, commemorating the three hundredth anniversary of Vieira’s death.

Global History, Visual Culture and Itinerancies
National studies have demonstrated their inability to correctly understand global phenomena, and the way in which they affect societies. This chronologically ambitious book investigates methodological and theoretical issues from Roman times to the present, in terms of globalization. In this context, one of the most relevant parameters of change emerges: the itinerancy of culture and knowledge. Therefore, this volume argues that itinerant agents carry with them cultural baggage, transporting and transmitting it to other spaces. In this way, interconnection begins, producing active changes in global history and visual culture. Contributions to this book focus on comparative studies, the evolution of global phenomena, historical processes in their diachrony, regional studies, changing economies, cultural continuities, and methodological questions on globalization, among others. In addition, the book opens with a contribution from Professor Peter Burke.
Eu Conheço Meu Pai
Este livro examina a conexão entre nossa consciência individual e uma entidade divina universalmente identificada como "Pai". Essa entidade é descrita como a consciência primordial e impessoal que molda nossa própria percepção de nós mesmos. Assim como o espaço sem forma permite a formação de tudo o que nele existe, adorar esse "Pai" significa reconhecer espiritualmente nossa verdadeira identidade para além das formas físicas e temporais. A obra argumenta que para alcançar uma paz interior superior, devemos abandonar ilusões que nos aprisionam, como divisões baseadas em raça, credo ou status. Apegos limitam nosso ser, e somente ao nos desapegarmos podemos encontrar verdadeir...
