Não escrevo porque

Não escrevo porque reúne poemas, listas, contos e fragmentos de autoras e autores que confessam ou inventam pretextos que os mantêm no limbo da página em branco, na tentativa de entender, como dizia Salvador Dalí, "a doce angústia criativa".

Como animar uma oficina literária

Consagradas ao redor do mundo, oficinas de criação literária promovem o conhecimento da literatura, geram estímulo para o ato de escrever e proporcionam o domínio de técnicas narrativas e poéticas aos participantes. Desse modo, fomentam o surgimento de novas vozes, contribuindo para a difusão no sistema literário de uma bem-vinda diversidade de estilos e autores. E como se ministra uma oficina de sucesso? Neste livro, com abordagem inédita no Brasil, renomados professores de Escrita Criativa narram suas experiências como participantes e ministrantes de oficinas.

O que nunca nos contaram sobre Turismo?

O livro, embasado em narrativas, trata do que costumeiramente não se ensina na Academia, para o exercício de atividades relacionadas ao setor turístico. Os relatos dos profissionais ilustram as curiosidades das atividades ligadas direta ou indiretamente ao setor e são capazes de gerar identificação mesmo em relação aos leitores que não possuem formação direta em Turismo, mas que de alguma forma estão inseridos na cadeia deste setor. Os autores reunidos na publicação são profissionais de diversas partes do País, que falam abertamente sobre algumas de suas experiências. As narrativas honestas evidenciam momentos de aprendizado, graça, recompensa, dor, contradição, injustiça e, até mesmo, de dúvidas sobre a relevância do trabalho exercido. Durante o processo, o objetivo é suscitar identificação e reflexões, para que ao final, você seja capaz de sair transformado/a da leitura, de alguma forma. Afinal, não é esse um dos grandes objetivos da experiência turística?

  • Publisher: MDPI

The impact of fat intake on hypercholesterolemia and related atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases has been studied for decades. However, the current evidence base suggests that fatty acids also influences cardiometabolic diseases through other mechanisms including effects on glucose metabolism, body fat distribution, blood pressure, inflammation, and heart rate. Furthermore, studies evaluating single fatty acids have challenged the simplistic view of shared health effects within fatty acid groups categorized by degree of saturation. In addition, investigations of endogenous fatty acid metabolism, including genetic studies of fatty acid metabolizing enzymes, and the identification of novel metabolically derived fatty acids have further increased the complexity of fatty acids’ health impacts. This Special Issue aims to include original research and up-to-date reviews on genetic and dietary modulation of fatty acids, and the role and function of dietary and metabolically derived fatty acids in cardiometabolic health.

A Visible Unity

The work of uniting churches is slow, challenging, and multifaceted; and it changes in each generation and location. In this book, Josiah Baker studies the efforts of believers towards reconciliation as something significant for how we understand the church. He offers a theology for laborers, people for whom unity is not only an idea but a calling and sure hope. A Visible Unity is a study in systematic theology on the relation of ecumenical methodology to ecclesiological convergence, how acting together results in the churches being together. Ecumenical work informs ecclesiology because it involves the actions of Christians together in accordance with their shared views of the church. Whenev...

The field of nanomedicine has risen quickly due to the increasing number of designer-made nanomaterials. These nanomaterials have the potential to manage diseases and change the way medicine is currently studied. However, the increased practice of using nanomaterials has shed light on how many concepts of nanomedicine and nanotoxicity have been overlooked. Nanotoxicology: Toxicity Evaluation of Nanomedicine Applications addresses the existing gaps between nanomedicine and nanotoxicity. This book also brings together up-to-date knowledge on advances toward safe-by-design nanomaterials and existing toxicity challenges. This book delivers a comprehensive coverage in the field with fundamental u...
