As Forças Armadas desempenham papel importante quanto à defesa da Pátria, à garantia dos poderes constitucionais, da lei e da ordem. Porém, além dessas atividades, outras relevantes atribuições são por essas instituições executadas, muito embora pouco ou quase nada se saiba sobre as tarefas subsidiárias que lhes competem. Este livro quer propor um debate a respeito das atividades subsidiárias afetas à Marinha do Brasil, especialmente àquelas que são executadas no rio Madeira – importante hidrovia para o país. Mas é salutar ressaltar a ideia de se realizar a análise acerca dessas atividades em perspectiva com a gestão de recursos hídricos no estado do Amazonas. Aspectos...

This book investigates the contact between Arawak and Tucanoan languages spoken in the Vaupés river basin in northwest Amazonia, which spans Colombia and Brazil. In this region language is seen as a badge of identity: language mixing is resisted for ideological reasons. The book considers which parts of the language categories are likely to be borrowed. This study also examines changes brought about by recent contact with European languages and culture, and the linguistic effects of language obsolescence.

This work is a reference grammar of Hup, a member of the Nadahup family (also known as Makú or Vaupés-Japura), which is spoken in the fascinatingly multilingual Vaupés region of the northwest Amazon. This detailed description and analysis is informed by a functional-typological perspective, with particular reference to areal contact and grammaticalization. The grammar begins with an introduction to the cultural and linguistic background of Hup speakers, gives an overview of the phonology, and follows this with chapters on morphosyntax (nominal morphology, verbs and verb compounding, tense, aspect, modality, evidentiality, etc.); it concludes with discussions of negation, the simple clause, and clause combining. A number of features of Hup grammar are typologically significant, such as its strategy of inversion in question formation, its system of Differential Object Marking, and its treatment of possession. Hup also exhibits several highly unusual paths of grammaticalization, such as the development of a verbal future suffix from the noun ‘stick, tree’. The book also includes a selection of texts and a CD-ROM with audio files.
