O Senador acaba de morrer

A lenda do Senador José Gomes Pinheiro Machado se construiu em combate: adolescente, fugiu de casa para lutar na Guerra do Paraguai; ainda jovem, batalhou pela República; tornou-se General comandando a lendária Divisão do Norte na Revolução Federalista; conheceu o país no lombo do cavalo, como tropeiro, descobrindo o Brasil profundo; contra sua vontade, foi eleito Senador. No Senado, tornou-se a figura mais importante e entregou sua vida à luta para consolidar a jovem república brasileira. Duelou com seus inimigos políticos, combateu nas coxilhas do pampa e acabou assassinado.. Num misto de romance e reportagem, o autor traça com maestria o perfil deste personagem fascinante que marcou época na história do nosso país.

This book is about the more than 4,000 beach systems that form most of the 9000 km long Brazilian coast. It focuses on the beaches of each of the seventeen coastal states and three oceanic islands, their nature, morphodynamics and status. It is a must for anyone who wants to know more about this great coast and its beach systems. This is the first book ever written about the beach systems of Brazil, and actually the very first about the beaches of an entire country. The Brazilian coast extends from the mighty Amazon River and its muddy shores in the north to one of the world’s longest sandy beaches in the southern Rio Grande do Sul. It contains every beach type from wave to tide-dominated which range in size from small embayed beaches to long barrier beaches. The book is written by leading Brazilian academics and researchers and aims at the university level market, as well as coastal scientists, engineers and managers. Standard scientific terminology is used to describe the coast and its beaches. It is illustrated with more than 400 original figures and serves as a benchmark text on the Brazilian coast.

The Brazil Reader

From the first encounters between the Portuguese and indigenous peoples in 1500 to the current political turmoil, the history of Brazil is much more complex and dynamic than the usual representations of it as the home of Carnival, soccer, the Amazon, and samba would suggest. This extensively revised and expanded second edition of the best-selling Brazil Reader dives deep into the past and present of a country marked by its geographical vastness and cultural, ethnic, and environmental diversity. Containing over one hundred selections—many of which appear in English for the first time and which range from sermons by Jesuit missionaries and poetry to political speeches and biographical portraits of famous public figures, intellectuals, and artists—this collection presents the lived experience of Brazilians from all social and economic classes, racial backgrounds, genders, and political perspectives over the past half millennium. Whether outlining the legacy of slavery, the roles of women in Brazilian public life, or the importance of political and social movements, The Brazil Reader provides an unparalleled look at Brazil’s history, culture, and politics.
