Paulo Freire - Formação de educadoras/es, diversidade e compromisso social
Este livro reúne textos apresentados no 2o Congresso Internacional "Paulo Freire: O Legado Global", realizado em 2018, em Belo Horizonte, que se vinculam, direta ou indiretamente, ao tema da formação de educadoras/es, diversidade e compromisso social. Assim como aconteceu com os trabalhos durante esse evento, os capítulos deste livro se organizam por "temas geradores", inspirados na obra de Paulo Freire. Contribuíram com esta obra, autoras/es de todas as regiões do Brasil, além de colegas do Chile e de Portugal. Publica-se este livro em um contexto político extremamente adverso no Brasil, em que a já frágil democracia brasileira é constantemente ameaçada e o Patrono da Educação em nosso país tornou-se alvo de ataques de grupos ultraconservadores e reacionários. E é exatamente isso que nos faz ter certeza da importância da publicação deste livro e do que ele representa para a construção de uma sociedade verdadeiramente democrática: mais justa, mais igualitária, mais humana, mais fraterna, não discriminatória e ecologicamente sustentável – ou seja, tudo aquilo que Paulo Freire nos deixou, por meio de sua obra, como legado.
The Master of the "Literatura De Cordel" Leandro Gomes De Barros
"The Master of the 'Literatura de Cordel' - Leandro Gomes de Barros. A Bilingual Anthology of Selected Works" is Professor Curran's return to research and writing from his first days in Brazil in 1966-1967 on a Fulbright Hays Fellowship for Ph.D. dissertation work. This book treats "Cordel's" best known and arguably best poet, a translation to English of his selected works, and a commentary on his pioneering days of the "Literatura de Cordel." Among the poet's topics were the changing times, foreigners in Brazil, government-politics-and war, mothers-in-law, sugar cane rum, religion and satire, banditry, the oral poetic duel, and the long narrative poems from the European popular tradition. Curran in addition gives a synopsis of the "Literatura de Cordel" as it was in its heyday in his initial research in the 1960s. The translation was a challenge but also a great pleasure.
The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature
The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature is by far the most comprehensive work of its kind ever written. Its three volumes cover the whole sweep of Latin American literature (including Brazilian) from pre-Colombian times to the present, and contain chapters on Latin American writing in the USA. Volume 3 is devoted partly to the history of Brazilian literature, from the earliest writing through the colonial period and the Portuguese-language traditions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; and partly also to an extensive bibliographical section in which annotated reading lists relating to the chapters in all three volumes of The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature are presented. These bibliographies are a unique feature of the History, further enhancing its immense value as a reference work.
Caatinga
This book provides in-depth information on Caatinga’s geographical boundaries and ecological systems, including plants, insects, fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. It also discusses the major threats to the region’s socio-ecological systems and includes chapters on climate change and fast and large-scale land-use changes, as well as slow and small-scale changes, also known as chronic human disturbances. Subsequent chapters address sustainable agriculture, conservation systems, and sustainable development. Lastly, the book proposes 10 major actions that could enable the transformation of Caatinga into a place where people and nature can thrive together. “I consider this b...
Disciplinary and Trans-Disciplinary Knowledge and Skills for an Uncertain Future: Are Educational Media up to It?
This volume collects some of the papers presented at the 16th IARTEM Conference held in Florence in April 2022. It was a ’difficult conference’, held at a time when the pandemic was still present, and therefore an important opportunity to resume a dialogue that seemed to have been interrupted. The richness of the content, which is the result of the reflections of authors from all over the world, allows us to provide a precise scenario of the research state of art in the field of textbooks and digital resources for teaching.

Brazilian Folk Narrative Scholarship Pbdirect
Although Brazilian scholars have collected and studied folklore since the second half of the nineteenth century, their work has gone largely unnoticed by folklorists working in other parts of the world. With the exception of anthropologists who occasionally study the folk literature of indigenous peoples in Brazil, few foreigners are familiar with, or even aware of, the kinds of folklore studies that have been undertaken in that country. This work, first published in 1994, aims to characterize the nature of Brazilian narrative studies and trends; to discuss and assess the roots of the apparent preoccupations, approaches and objectives of traditional narrative scholarship in Brazil; to examine Brazilian folklore scholarship in light of Euro-American research; and to point out the results and accomplishments of Brazilian research while simultaneously indicating possibilities for new directions in research.
Prince of the People

Black Into White
Published to wide acclaim in 1974, Thomas E. Skidmore's intellectual history of Brazilian racial ideology has become a classic in the field. Available for the first time in paperback, this edition has been updated to include a new preface and bibliography that surveys recent scholarship in the field. Black into White is a broad-ranging study of what the leading Brazilian intellectuals thought and propounded about race relations between 1870 and 1930. In an effort to reconcile social realities with the doctrines of scientific racism, the Brazilian ideal of "whitening"—the theory that the Brazilian population was becoming whiter as race mixing continued—was used to justify the recruiting of European immigrants and to falsely claim that Brazil had harmoniously combined a multiracial society of Europeans, Africans, and indigenous peoples.
