Este livro analisa o processo de construção da identidade docente a partir da percepção dos profissionais bacharéis, que atuam em classes inclusivas em uma escola de educação profissional. A formação dos docentes é algo inevitável para o desenvolvimento da educação brasileira, assim, este livro reflete sobre o que acontece quando um profissional tem formação somente em nível de bacharelado, atua na educação profissional como docente e tem estudantes com Necessidades Educacionais Especiais (NEE) na sua sala de aula. Em nosso cotidiano de trabalho, acompanhávamos a prática pedagógica desses docentes e sempre indagando se haveria diferença na maneira de ser professor e de ...
This is the first complete modern survey of the institution of slavery in Brazil and how it affected the lives of enslaved Africans. It is based on major new research on the institution of slavery and the role of Africans and their descendants in Brazil. This book aims to introduce the reader to this latest research, both to elucidate the Brazilian experience and to provide a basis for comparisons with all other American slave systems.
A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.
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 ...
Este livro, que levou vinte e sete anos de pesquisas genealógicas, será de grande relevância, uma vez que vai documentar e registrar a genealogia de grandes famílias de quase todo o Centro-Oeste Mineiro, e ainda, narrar um pouco de sua história, de sua etnia e de sua cultura. Seu público alvo será, além, de seus próprios descendentes, também de futuros pesquisadores de seus próprios ramos genealógicos e estudiosos sobre o assunto. Sobretudo, será de grande importância para a História de Minas e do Brasil, na medida em que essas famílias deram ao nosso país elementos de realce na vida pública, artística, cultural, etc. Durante todos estes longos anos de pesquisas, que dediquei e dedico as Famílias Rabelo, Vasconcelos, Gonçalves da Costa e outras, sejam através de batistérios paroquiais, arquivos públicos, prefeituras e cartórios, tomando depoimento de várias pessoas, principalmente dos mais velhos, cujas memórias remontam a um passado mais distante, dando-me incentivo e informações importantes para a construção desta obra.

Sharp and tender at once, a humourous take on family dysfunction and human weakness seen through a young boy's eyes. Max lives with his grandparents in a residential home for refugees in Germany. When his grandmother—a terrifying, stubborn matriarch and a former Russian primadonna—moved them from the Motherland, it was in search of a better life. But she is not at all pleased with how things are run in Germany. His grandmother has been telling Max that he is an incompetent, clueless weakling since he was a child. While he may be dolt in his grandmother's eyes, Max is bright enough to notice that his stoic and taciturn grandfather has fallen hopelessly in love with their neighbour, Nina. When a child is born to Nina that is the spitting image of Max's grandfather, things come to a hilarious if dramatic head. Everybody will have to learn to defend themselves from Max's all-powerful grandmother.
