This book traces the history and development of the port of Benguela, the third largest port of slave embarkation on the coast of Africa, from the early seventeenth to the mid-nineteenth century. Benguela, located on the central coast of present-day Angola, was founded by the Portuguese in the early seventeenth century. In discussing the impact of the transatlantic slave trade on African societies, Mariana P. Candido explores the formation of new elites, the collapse of old states and the emergence of new states. Placing Benguela in an Atlantic perspective, this study shows how events in the Caribbean and Brazil affected social and political changes on the African coast. This book emphasizes the importance of the South Atlantic as a space for the circulation of people, ideas and crops.
In this multi-award-winning autobiographical novel, Cristovão Tezza draws his readers into the mind of a young father whose son, Felipe, is born with Down syndrome. From the initial shock of diagnosis, and through his growing understanding of the world of hospitals and therapies, Tezza threads the story of his son’s life with his own. Felipe, who lives in an eternal present, becomes a remarkable young man; for Tezza, however, the story is a settling of accounts with himself and his own limitations and, ultimately, a coming to terms with the sublime ironies and arbitrariness of life. He struggles with the phantom of shame, as if his son’s condition were an indication of his own worth, an...
In 1978 Christiane F. testified against a man who had traded heroin for sex with teenage girls at Berlin’s notorious Zoo Station. In the course of that trial, Christiane F. became connected with two journalists, and over time they helped to turn her story - which begins with a dysfunctional but otherwise fairly normal childhood - into an acclaimed bestseller. Christiane F.’s rapid descent into heroin abuse and prostitution is shocking, but the boredom, the longing for acceptance, the thrilling risks, and even the musical obsessions that fill out the rest of Christiane’s existence will be familiar to every reader. Christiane F.’s Berlin is a strange and often terrifying place, but it’s also a place that remains closer than we might think….

A pressão para justificar a arte, a ciência e a diversão em termos do seu valor espiritual ou da sua utilidade evangelística acaba prejudicando tanto o dom da criação quanto o dom do evangelho, nesse processo desvalorizando o primeiro e distorcendo o segundo. Os cristãos entenderam mal o que significa estar no mundo, mas não ser dele? A igreja, em certo sentido, negligenciou o mundo à sua volta? Michael Horton escreveu O Cristão e a Cultura para os cristãos que lutam com uma subcultura que sufoca em vez de encorajar seus impulsos e ambições divinamente concedidos. (...) pressões, porém, para se criar versões distintamente "cristãs" de tudo no mundo (ou seja, na criação) pressupõem que exista algo essencialmente errado com a criação — e essa é uma pressuposição teológica que tem uma influência muito maior na formação das atitudes evangélicas em todas essas esferas do que geralmente se admite.
