Determinantes sociais, biológicos e históricos da epidemia de HIV/AIDS no Brasil e no mundo

Sinopse Em 1989, o historiador estadunidense Stephen Richards Graubard (1924-2021) escreveu um prefácio inquietante para introduzir os dois números temáticos da revista Daedalus, da qual ele foi editor por anos. Graubard (1989) inicia destacando que, passado quase uma década da emergência da AIDS, ainda era preciso se ter acesso à uma literatura que promovesse um debate mais qualificado. Tratava-se de uma crítica evidente às especulações estigmatizantes que deram a tônica das conversações sobre a doença naquela década. O texto é composto por inúmeras e relevantes questões, cujo escopo abrange um largo escopo disciplinar e institucional. Ele traça um panorama extensivo que ...

  • Publisher: Chanterelle

The present new Urtext edition of Sor's didactic pieces takes a different approach to that taken by other editions even recent ones. In preparing the material for publication, Chanterelle strove to maintain a close adherence to the composer's own statements regarding the pieces as they appear in his various writings. At the same time, each individual reference was evaluated against other available historical evidence to determine the extent to which it truly repesents Sor's applied technique, the way he actually performed these pieces himself. Opp.6, 12, 29, 31, 35, 44 & 60, with Historical Notes, Full Commentary, Thematic Index, and Playing Suggestions.

The Inquisitor

I hereby record those events which took place in and around the city of Lazet relating to the assassination of our venerable Brother Augustin Duese in the year of the Incarnate Word, 1318. So writes Brother Bernard, an Inquisitor of Heretical Depravity, following the discovery of his superior's dismembered corpse. At a time when heresy is a heinous offence, routed out with ruthless determination, Brother Bernard is accustomed to dispensing harsh justice. But as he attempts to make sense of this shocking crime, he himself becomes an object of persecution-thanks to his passionate involvement with a mysterious suspect and her beautiful daughter. Pursued as a heretic, implicated as a murderer, Bernard must now face his accusers. To fail such a task, in fourteenth century France, means certain death. Catherine Jinks has crafted a magnificent tale of murder, forbidden lust and betrayal.
