Rindo de nervoso
A gente percebe a que ponto o Brasil chegou quando sites criados para postarem notícias ficcionais absurdas começam a perder a graça por não conseguirem competir com a realidade em nível de surrealismo. Mas, como dizia aquela velha propaganda ao som da música do Raul Seixas, “o brasileiro não desiste nunca”, e já surgiram por aí artistas de diversas artes correndo atrás do prejuízo para nos devolver o riso. Da charge ao deepfake, passando pelo meme e a paródia, novas obras pululam todos os dias na internet ajudando-nos a aliviar a tensão gerada pela somatória de uma pandemia com um desgoverno, e provando mais uma vez que rir é o melhor remédio. A ideia de uma antologia qu...

The History of Cartography, Volume 4
Since its launch in 1987, the History of Cartography series has garnered critical acclaim and sparked a new generation of interdisciplinary scholarship. Cartography in the European Enlightenment, the highly anticipated fourth volume, offers a comprehensive overview of the cartographic practices of Europeans, Russians, and the Ottomans, both at home and in overseas territories, from 1650 to 1800. The social and intellectual changes that swept Enlightenment Europe also transformed many of its mapmaking practices. A new emphasis on geometric principles gave rise to improved tools for measuring and mapping the world, even as large-scale cartographic projects became possible under the aegis of po...
Modernity in Black and White
"The book provides a deeper understanding of modern art in the Brazilian context, moving the focus away from the self-declared avant-gardes and towards a broad panorama of modernizing tendencies throughout the period, 1890 to 1945. The backdrop of sertão, favelas, carnival and samba - often left out of accounts that restrict readings of modernism to erudite arenas like literature, fine art or architecture - are foregrounded in an attempt to situate artistic discourses within the social and political struggles of the period. Race, class and ideological conflict are given priority as tools for deconstructing complex debates, too often taken at face value or misread as merely reflexive of Euro...

Home Reading Service
In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...
