Novas Travessias
This volume highlights the work of contemporary Brazilian photographers with an emphasis on images which reflect the dynamism and eclecticism of Brazilian society. The editor has collected the work of 21 of Brazil's most prominent photographers and accompanies their work with a commentary describing the new uses of photography within the contemporary arts and the burgeoning alternatives to traditional photography. The book begins with an historical overview, continuing with the experiences of the independent photo agencies of the 1970s, the creative surge in the 80s, and the recent emergence of photography as a means of personal and artistic expression. The direct participation of indigenous authors and photographers from all regions of Brazil allows this book to show how writers and artists see themselves and their work in a de-exoticized framework.
Brazilian Art Under Dictatorship
After the Brazilian military took power in a coup in 1964, many artists tried to distance themselves from politics; others went into exile. This book covers the most culturally repressive years of the regime, from 1968-74 and looks at artists who found their own visual language of resistance, outside government-controlled cultural centers or the militant left.
Resisting Brazil's Military Regime
Praised by his many admirers as a "courageous and fearless" defender of human rights, Heráclito Fontoura Sobral Pinto (1893-1991) was the most consistently forceful opponent of the regime of Brazilian dictator Getúlio Vargas. John W. F. Dulles chronicled Sobral's battles with the Vargas government in Sobral Pinto, "The Conscience of Brazil": Leading the Attack against Vargas (1930-1945), which History: Reviews of New Books called "a must-read for anyone wanting to understand twentieth-century Brazil." In this second and final volume of his biography of Sobral Pinto, Professor Dulles completes the story of the fiery crusader's fight for democracy, morality, and justice, particularly for the...
Brazilian Authoritarianism
"This book, written in the aftermath of the 2018 election of the right-wing populist politician Jair Bolsonaro, is a historically-grounded analysis of authoritarianism in Brazil. In the tradition of Zola's J'accuse, Lilia Schwarcz takes up and debunks the popular and cherished national myth of Brazil as a tolerant, open, peaceful, and racially-harmonious society. In that country's history textbooks even Brazil's centuries of slavery have been described as an ultimately benign, paternalistic order in which the races freely mixed and the cruelty of the U.S. slave experience was absent. This, Schwarcz argues, papers over centuries of racially-motivated violence, cruelty, and exploitation. These...
The Brazilian Sound
At the second International Song Festival in 1967, Milton Nascimento had three songs accepted for competition. He had no intention of performing them--he hated the idea of intense competition. In fact, Nascimento might never have appeared at all if Eumir Deodato hadn't threatened not to write the arrangements for his songs if he didn't perform at least two of them. Nascimento went on to win the festival's best performer award, all three of his songs were included soon afterward on his first album, and the rest is history. This is only one anecdote from The Brazilian Sound, an encyclopedic survey of Brazilian popular music that ranges over samba, bossa nova, MPB, jazz and instrumental music a...
Revista Continente Multicultural #273
A Nação Encanto do Pina foi a campeã do Carnaval do Recife de 2023 no desfile especial da sua categoria. O que seria um momento de comemoração transformou-se em luta. O grupo foi atacado nas redes sociais devido ao seu comando estar nas mãos de uma mulher, Mestra Joana. O fato foi mais um dos ataques vividos por ela desde que passou a liderar sua Nação. "A própria Mestra Joana passou a compreender essa realidade de apagamento ao assumir, em 2008, a Nação Encanto do Pina. Momento em que houve uma saída em massa por parte de homens e de algumas mulheres do grupo. Mesmo com o título de Mestra, respeitando a hierarquização e ritual obrigatórios do Ylê Axé Oxum Deym", nos conta ...

A utilização da fundação de apoio ao Corpo de Bombeiros (FUNDABOM)
A cada dia que passa cresce a dificuldade de resolução dos atuais problemas sociais. O avanço da tecnologia tem acarretado uma maior complexidade das relações sociais, sendo que, em razão disso, o sistema normativo se inova na tentativa de regular os efeitos dessas novas e complexas problemáticas sociais. Essas questões, que tanto afligem a sociedade, não podem mais ser estudadas e resolvidas somente com os instrumentos seculares. O nominado primeiro setor da sociedade (Estado) não consegue mais propiciar a execução de todas as atividades que são necessárias ao alcance do bem-estar social. A complexidade da sociedade e das instituições torna obrigatória a participação das ...
