Em 2021 a ABSTRAÇÃO nasceu como a terceira antologia poética da Academia Independente de Letras, assumindo em poesias a ilusão métrica do mundo em pandemia sobre uma nova realidade e identidade poética do escritor/autor brasileiro contra o desânimo que dilata o coração, na expectativa de se ergue dentro de nós e a nossa frente, o sentido da vida e sua voraz arte do agora. A abstração assim se tornou um elemento fundamental que disfarça a terminologia filosófica dos processos e pensamentos, ideias e fatos sobre uma estratégia simplificada de estar bem e ser algo a mais do concreto e suas orientações ambíguas sobre as coisas e verdades do mundo, do agora, da coisa/vírus que ...
A partir de uma pesquisa minuciosa e reveladora, Geminiana e seus filhos coloca em foco a sociedade de São Luís do Maranhão no ano de 1876, quando os meninos Inocêncio e Jacintho, nascidos pouco antes da Lei do Ventre Livre e mantidos sob jugo da baronesa Ana Rosa Viana Ribeiro foram torturados e assassinados por ela. Analisando os diferentes personagens envolvidos no caso e seus papéis, a obra denuncia um dos aspectos mais cruéis da sociedade escravagista brasileira do século XIX, ao mesmo tempo em que destaca a coragem de Geminiana e Simplícia, mãe e avó das crianças mortas, e da rede de resistência que se formava diante dos horrores da escravidão.

Data are becoming the proverbial coin of the digital realm: a research commodity that might purchase reputation credit in a disciplinary culture of data sharing, or buy transparency when faced with funding agency mandates or publisher scrutiny. Unlike most monetary systems, however, digital data can flow in all too great an abundance. Not only does this currency actually grow on trees, but it comes from animals, books, thoughts, and each of us! And that is what makes data curation so essential. The abundance of digital research data challenges library and information science professionals to harness this flow of information streaming from research discovery and scholarly pursuit and preserve...

Gender was a decisive force in slave society. Slave men's experiences differed from those of slave women, who were exploited in both reproductive and productive capacities. They did not figure prominently in revolts because they engaged in less confrontational methods of resistance, emphasizing creative struggle to survive dehumanization and abuse.
In The Postcolonial State in Africa, Crawford Young offers an informed and authoritative comparative overview of fifty years of African independence, drawing on his decades of research and first-hand experience on the African continent. Young identifies three cycles of hope and disappointment common to many of the African states (including those in North Africa) over the last half-century: initial euphoria at independence in the 1960s followed by disillusionment with a lapse into single-party autocracies and military rule; a period of renewed confidence, radicalization, and ambitious state expansion in the 1970s preceding state crisis and even failure in the disastrous 1980s; and a phase of ...
