Este livro reúne, em seus dez capítulos, contribuições de fotógrafos, pesquisadores e professores de fotografia de dez instituições brasileiras de ensino superior. Alguns dos trabalhos aqui apresentados estimulam o leitor a refletir sobre a linguagem e a estética fotográfica; outros apresentam propostas metodológicas inéditas de coleta e análise de fotografias. E há os que convidam o leitor para um passeio curioso e relaxante pelo mundo mágico da arte da fotografia, sendo que um deles trás o belíssimo resultado plástico de uma experiência imersiva de documentação fotográfica. Fotografia: usos, repercussões, reflexões, ao reunir modos distintos de pensar a fotografia, pretende, além de trazer novos conhecimentos ao leitor, ser uma ferramente auxiliar de ensino em sala de aula e transformar-se em fonte de pesquisa para a produção de novos materiais sobre fotografia, tanto em cursos de graduação quanto de pós-graduação lato e stricto sensu.
O Barão do Café
Vera e Sônia convidam o leitor para uma emocionante viagem ao passado, onde a bagagem e o maior desafio foi trabalhar com fios de memórias, que foram colhendo, tecendo e costurando, pequenos pedaços de lembranças, para reconstruirem um tempo já findo, e encoberto, até então, pela névoa do esquecimento.

Temporalities
Temporalities presents a concise critical introduction to the treatment of time throughout literature. Russell West-Pavlov examines time as a crucial part of the critical theories of Newton, Freud, Ricoeur, Benjamin, and through related concepts, such as psychology, gender and postmodernism. The author also explores representations of time in a broad range of texts, ranging from the writings of St. Augustine and Sterne's Tristram Shandy, to Woolf's Mrs Dalloway and Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. This comprehensive and accessible guide establishes temporality as an essential theme within literary and cultural studies.

Cultural Analytics
A book at the intersection of data science and media studies, presenting concepts and methods for computational analysis of cultural data. How can we see a billion images? What analytical methods can we bring to bear on the astonishing scale of digital culture--the billions of photographs shared on social media every day, the hundreds of millions of songs created by twenty million musicians on Soundcloud, the content of four billion Pinterest boards? In Cultural Analytics, Lev Manovich presents concepts and methods for computational analysis of cultural data. Drawing on more than a decade of research and projects from his own lab, Manovich offers a gentle, nontechnical introduction to the core ideas of data analytics and discusses the ways that our society uses data and algorithms.
New Thinking in Comparative Education
This book is a cutting-edge collection of articles inspired by the writings of Robert Cowen about comparative education. Authors take up Cowen's central concerns: re-theorising the field of comparative education, rethinking the interpretive concepts that are used by comparative education researchers, and the relationships between them. The authors take us beyond old ideas to provide some new and fresh thinking on and about educational phenomena and the field of comparative education. Writers engage in critical thinking about the intellectual agenda of comparative education, the role of theory in their work, the contexts that are shaping the field, and epistemic consequences of these broader ...
