Este livro tem como objetivo investigar e discutir como práticas discursivas, em uma reportagem televisiva, forjam os sentidos de região, especificamente sobre a região Nordeste e, por relações sinonímicas, do sertão alagoano, um “outro sertão” que refrata e ressignifica sentidos hegemônicos acerca do território nordestino/sertanejo.
This book springs from the compilation of papers and posters presented in 2013 and 2014 at the 2nd and 3rd Enardas Colloquia, entitled 'Living Places, Experienced Places'. The first part, in two chapters, is entitled 'Concepts and tools to study rock art'. The second part, 'From sub-naturalistic to Schematic rock art tradition', discusses various expressions of recorded art in the hinterland area of northwest Iberia, as well as expressions of the schematic art tradition from north-central Portugal. The third part, 'Atlantic tradition rock art' comprises four chapters. The fourth part, 'Other styles', includes five chapters focusing on depictions that the book editors consider distinct from the best-known regional styles. Edited by Ana M. S. Bettencourt, Manuel Santos Estevez, Hugo A. Sampaio and Daniela Cardoso

Esta obra convida ao debate – na perspectiva do antirracismo – sobre educação e diversidade, notadamente, pela perspectiva das categorias de igualdade, relações étnico raciais e de inclusão, colocando em questão concepções construídas sob o padrão ocidental heteronormativo, as quais delegam tanto o conteúdo – papeis raciais e de gênero a serem desempenhado – quanto à forma, influenciando o registro historiográfico da cultura. Portanto, trata-se de uma leitura fundamental para desconstruir valores eurocêntricos, neocoloniais que se impõem sobre os corpos negros, afetando sobremaneira mulheres, LGBTQIA+ e pessoas com deficiência.

Focus: Music of Northeast Brazil examines the historical and contemporary manifestations of the music of Brazil, a country with a musical landscape that is layered with complexity and diversity. Based on the author’s field research during the past twenty years, the book describes and analyzes the social/historical contexts and contemporary musical practices of Afro-Brazilian religion, selected Carnival traditions, Bahia’s black cultural renaissance, the traditions of rural migrants, and currents in new popular music.
