Living in Poverty
This book covers the results of investigation of social realities and their public representation in Brazilian poor communities, with a particular emphasis on the use of cultural tools to survive and create psychological and social novelty under conditions of severe poverty. A relevant part of it brings together the multi-faceted evidence of a decade of research concentrated in two particular low-income areas in the city of Salvador da Bahia, Brazil. Other studies conducted in other Brazilian areas and in Cali, Colombia are included. In contrast to most representations of poverty in the social sciences which create a “calamity story” of the lives of poor people, the coverage in this book is meant to balance the focus on harsh realities with the cultural-psychological resiliency of individuals and families under poverty.

Eighteenth-Century Theatre Capitals: From Lisbon to St. Petersburg
The fifth volume of the series Cadernos de Queluz intends to broaden the conceptual and geographical perspectives on the pan-European history of music theatre. The cultural and ceremonial patterns common to eighteenth-century European courts created complex webs of meaning around the sovereigns who communicated via the arts, which found expression in an architectural, artistic, and musical code. The existence of a common artistic language among European countries facilitated the circulation of musicians, theatrical companies, architects, librettists, and craftsmen within a single network, challenging the orthodox conceptual distinctions between European cultural traditions. This book is a virtual journey among the artistic exchanges between the European capitals, weaving them into one single narrative, underlining the common patterns of musical practices throughout the Continent, from West to East. The road map starts from the kingdom of Portugal and passes through Madrid, Paris, the Papal States, Naples, Milan, Vienna, and ends in St. Petersburg.
Tierra prometida
Los comienzos del movimiento Comunión y Liberación (CL) no se pueden separar de la vitalidad de don Giussani desde el momento mismo en que pisó por primera vez la América Latina en 1973. Aquí comienza una historia que se dilata superando los confines iniciales, alcanza distintas profundidades y, a veces, se entierra como un río cárstico para volver a aparecer en forma de numerosos riachuelos donde menos lo esperábamos. Una historia fresca y sugestiva en la que aparecen personajes, amistades y los grandes acontecimientos políticos y eclesiales latinoamericanos que acompañan el nacimiento de CL en el Nuevo Mundo. Un libro imprescindible, la historia de una corriente de amistades que cruzó el océano y llegó a las costas de una tierra fértil que, con el tiempo, se convirtió también en la tierra del que escribe estas páginas.
