Percursos acadêmicos e debates interinstitucionais
Neste e-book, apresentamos parte deste desenvolvimento, organizado conforme as três áreas de investigação do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos Linguísticos (PosLin), da Faculdade de Letras (FALE), na Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG). Os 23 textos que compõem este volume são resultado de pesquisas de mestrado e de doutorado desenvolvidas no PosLin e são apresentados por textos breves de professores-pesquisadores convidados e/ou que atuaram como debatedores no XII SETED.
Estudos do léxico: diferentes olhares e perspectivas
A proposta de organização deste livro surgiu de uma proximidade acadêmica e particular de nós, organizadores, e da necessidade de se criar mais um espaço para a reunião de trabalhos das diversas áreas das Ciências do Léxico. Entretanto, após o esboço deste livro e o convite aos pesquisadores e às pesquisadoras, que prontamente aceitaram participar dessa empreitada, o mundo foi assombrado pela pandemia de Covid-19. Assim, diante de tantas perdas e incertezas, os trabalhos de organização ficaram praticamente parados. Não era momento de cobrar de nós mesmos, dos nossos colegas e dos nossos colaboradores, foco para produzir, quando os esforços deveriam estar voltados para o autocuidado e o cuidado do outro. O vírus ainda não desapareceu, mas, felizmente, as estatísticas atuais nos permitem seguir com aquilo que muitos chamam de "o novo normal". Os trabalhos aqui reunidos só evidenciam como a área das Ciências do Léxico é bastante diversa e produtiva. Assim, esperamos que as discussões aqui levantadas possam incentivar e subsidiar, mesmo que aos poucos, mais discussões na área.

Affect in Literacy Learning and Teaching
In this cutting-edge volume, scholars from around the world connect affect theory to the field of literacy studies and unpack the role and influence of this emerging area of scholarship on literacy education. Offering an introduction to affect theory and scholarship as it relates to literacy studies, contributors discuss the role of humanizing and dehumanizing influences on schooling and examine the emotional and affective dimensions at individual and communal levels. Arguing that an affective turn requires a radical rethinking of the nature of literacy, these chapters address the impact and import of emotion and affect on reading, writing and calling to action. Grounded in trailblazing research, the contributors push the boundaries of academic writing and model how theoretically-driven writing about affect must itself be moving and expressive.
The Commentaries of D. García de Silva y Figueroa on his Embassy to Shāh ʿAbbās I of Persia on Behalf of Philip III, King of Spain
The Commentaries is the first complete English language translation, with complete annotations, of a unique and extraordinary memoir from the pen of the erudite Spanish soldier-diplomat D. García de Silva y Figueroa over the course of his embassy to Persia (1614–1624). The Commentaries transcend the travel-literature genre, emerging as a precocious European intellectual global history that is remarkable for its encyclopedic breadth, its historical depth, and its ethnographic and even artistic sensitivity. The Commentaries will be of interest to historians, ethnographers, and literary critics, or anyone with an interest in early modern European accounts of the encounter between the Portuguese and Spanish Empires and Safavid Persia during the early modern period.
The Holy Spirit and Christian Origins
Anyone who is interested in the rigorous study of early Christianity and who has not engaged with the works of James D. G. Dunn is not really interested in the rigorous study of early Christianity. No one would dispute that Professor Dunn is one of the most prolific New Testament scholars of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. And while a handful of scholars might have a list of publications to rival his own extensive publications list, none of them could claim to have set the agenda of scholarly study to the extent that Jimmy Dunn has done for a sustained period of time since the 1970s. The Holy Spirit and Christian Origins comprises a selection of original essays that expl...
How to Read the Bible Without Losing Your Mind
Does reading the Bible sometimes leave you confused? Do you have difficulty seeing the relevance of the Bible to modern concerns or to important issues in your life? Do you believe Bible reading and intellectual inquiry are mutually exclusive? This book explores how the Bible can serve as a resource for discovering truth. It provides a method that accepts and incorporates the knowledge gained from modern scholarship while also recognizing that truth-discovery is a personal, multifaceted journey. It honors the integrity of Scripture while remaining open to insight from additional truth-sources. In exploring what we mean when we speak of the Bible's authority, it is honest about the challenges presented to modern readers by the cultural chasm separating the biblical writers from today's world. How to Read the Bible Without Losing Your Mind shows how the Bible can be read with full engagement of both mind and heart.
