Good Places and Non-places in Colonial Mexico
High state official and judge of the Supreme Court or the Segunda Audiencia, and later first bishop of the state of Michoacan, Vasco de Quiroga is still celebrated for the alternative community models he established for the Purepecha Indians in the Northwestern state of Michoacan in Mexico. This study offers the most complete approach to date to the writings directly attributed to this state official of the Spanish Empire and also to the scholarship about him. This work provides critical readings of Quiroga's texts including the Rules and Regulations for the Government of the Hospitals of Santa Fe de Mexico and Michoacan, Información en Derecho, De Debellandis Indis and the Juicio de Residencia, and relates them to more widely know figures such as Ginés de Sepúlveda, Bartolomé de las Casas, Bernal Díaz del Castillo and Francisco de Vitoria among others. This book will be of interest to all those engaged in the history of literature, legal studies, utopianism, Hispanic/Spanish studies of the Early Modern Period, Colonial Latin American Studies and Golden Age Studies.
Unleashing Manhood in the Cage
Unleashing Manhood in the Cage: Masculinity and Mixed Martial Arts addresses the question “Why do mixed martial arts participants endure grueling workouts and suffer through injury, with little or no pay, just to compete?” The answer is because the participants enjoy a form of idolization from their supporters, each other, and culture more generally, which is linked to masculinity. In fact, MMA organizers, from the very beginning, purposefully created elements of the sport that are linked to dominant narratives about manhood. In this context, men don thin open-fingered gloves, lock themselves in a caged enclosure, and slug it out in a fight with few rules to see who comes out on top. This all occurs while “ring girls” in high-heels and skin-tight shirts and shorts stride around outside the cage holding signs and peddling t-shirts. The sum of these elements is the creation of a type of a publicly accessible and consumable form of masculinity. The sport of mixed martial arts is a rich and intriguing space where the construction of gender can be explored through a sociological and ethnographic lens.

Os Padres da Igreja e a Misericórdia
O tema da misericórdia tem acompanhado a história dos cristãos. Um capítulo importante desta história é certamente constituído pelos Padres da Igreja, entre os quais se destaca Santo Agostinho, a voz por excelência da Misericórdia Divina. Este volume pretende evidenciar como o tema da misericórdia atravessa o ensinamento destes grandes mestres dos primeiros séculos do cristianismo. Além disso, apresenta alguns dos textos mais significativos e sugestivos dos Padres da Igreja do Oriente e do Ocidente, muitas vezes pouco conhecidos pelos fiéis, que são um verdadeiro tesouro para sustentar e alimentar a nossa fé neste Ano Jubilar.
