Território feminino
Cada linha escrita pelos novos pesquisadores deste livro revela a busca incansável de utilizar em suas pesquisas e produções uma atitude interdisciplinar, até mesmo transdisciplinar e holística. Qualquer processo humanizador tem de estabelecer conexões entre as partes, transitar do singular ao universal, da aparência à essência, da parte ao todo, e vice-versa. Quando fragmentado, produz certa cegueira do conhecimento. A pesquisa e o conhecimento comprometidos com a vida tendem a compreender e interpretar a situação, e tomar decisões. Para utilizar um símbolo, diríamos que, numa visão panorâmica, os pesquisadores buscam alçar o voo da águia, mas também esgaravatar o terreiro como a galinha. Águia e galinha trabalham na altura e no rés do chão. Os pesquisadores procuram mostrar a construção do feminino a partir dos territórios e da territorialidade em que se encontram as mulheres. É nesse locus de subjetivação e objetivação que buscam capturar o jeito feminino de agir, de viver, de morar, de ser, bem como sua apropriação dessas múltiplas esferas. Os capítulos deste livro são sempre uma síntese entre a teoria e a experiência cotidiana.
Ability-grouping in Primary Schools
The use of ability-grouping is currently increasing in primary schools. Teachers and teacher educators are placed in the unenviable position of having to marry research evidence suggesting that ability-grouping is ineffectual with current policy advocating this approach.This book links theory, policy and practice in a critical examination of ability-grouping practices and their implications in primary schools, with particular reference to primary mathematics. It provides an accessible text for teacher educators to support their students in engaging with the key debates and reflecting upon their practice. Key changes in structural approaches, such as the movement between streaming, setting or mixed-ability teaching arrangements, are explored in the light of political trends, bringing this up to date with a discussion of current policy and practice.
At Your Feet
Ana Cristina Cesar (1952-1983) has posthumously become one of Brazil’s best known avant-garde poets. After her suicide in 1983, her innovative, mythic, and dreamlike poetry has greatly influenced subsequent generations of writers. At Your Feet was originally published as a poetic sequence and later became part of a longer hybrid work— sometimes prose, sometimes verse—documenting the life and mind of a forcefully active literary woman. Cesar, who also worked internationally as a journalist and translator, often found inspiration in the writings of other poets, among them Emily Dickinson, Armando Freitas Filho, and Gertrude Stein. Her innovative writing has been featured in Sun and Moon’s classic anthology Nothing the Sun Could Not Explain—20 Contemporary Brazilian Poets (2000). Poet Brenda Hillman and her mother Helen Hillman (a native speaker of Portuguese) worked with Brazilian poet Sebastião Edson Macedo and translator/editor Katrina Dodson to render as faithfully as possible the intricately layered poems of this legendary writer. At Your Feet includes both the English translation and original Portuguese.
Here Comes the Sun
Capturing the distinct rhythms of Jamaican life and dialect, Nicole Dennis- Benn pens a tender hymn to a world hidden among pristine beaches and the wide expanse of turquoise seas. At an opulent resort in Montego Bay, Margot hustles to send her younger sister, Thandi, to school. Taught as a girl to trade her sexuality for survival, Margot is ruthlessly determined to shield Thandi from the same fate. When plans for a new hotel threaten their village, Margot sees not only an opportunity for her own financial independence but also perhaps a chance to admit a shocking secret: her forbidden love for another woman. As they face the impending destruction of their community, each woman—fighting to balance the burdens she shoulders with the freedom she craves—must confront long-hidden scars. From a much-heralded new writer, Here Comes the Sun offers a dramatic glimpse into a vibrant, passionate world most outsiders see simply as paradise.
