Relações de poder cristãs, escravistas e patriarcais permearam as relações de gênero conduzindo à submissão sexual das mal-procedidas , concubinas e prostitutas, que se entregavam aos prazeres sensuais. Escravas e libertas, ao se relacionarem intimamente com homens brancos, subverteram os padrões hierárquicos da sociedade das Minas do século XVIII, deslocando as relações de dominação e criando poderes informais femininos baseados na sedução que proporcionavam uma existência mais livre. Brancas pobres, sem dotes, que não atuavam na preservação da propriedade de ricos senhores de escravos, também criaram táticas de sobrevivência por meio dos tratos ilícitos . Através da subversão do desejo e do olhar masculinos, mulheres pobres conquistaram melhores condições de vida, construindo uma cultura feminina de resistência fundamentada no mau uso de si .

A escrita do livro Entre giros e giras: por onde trilha o empoderamento feminino na Folia de Reis foi guiada pelo desejo de mostrar e analisar a trajetória de mulheres no contexto androcêntrico das Folias de Reis da cidade de Leopoldina – MG. No transcorrer da pesquisa foi possível compreender que a mulher não se inseriu tardiamente nesse universo, como possa supor um observador descontextualizado e apressado. Ela sempre esteve intrinsecamente inserida, envolvida e absorvida pelas demandas da manifestação em honra aos Santos Reis, porém em lugares e funções invizibilizados. Por um viés interdisciplinar, tangendo as perspectivas etnográfica, sociológica, antropológica, históri...
This expansive and practical textbook contains organic chemistry experiments for teaching in the laboratory at the undergraduate level covering a range of functional group transformations and key organic reactions.The editorial team have collected contributions from around the world and standardized them for publication. Each experiment will explore a modern chemistry scenario, such as: sustainable chemistry; application in the pharmaceutical industry; catalysis and material sciences, to name a few. All the experiments will be complemented with a set of questions to challenge the students and a section for the instructors, concerning the results obtained and advice on getting the best outcome from the experiment. A section covering practical aspects with tips and advice for the instructors, together with the results obtained in the laboratory by students, has been compiled for each experiment. Targeted at professors and lecturers in chemistry, this useful text will provide up to date experiments putting the science into context for the students.
Throughout the nuclear age, states have taken many different paths toward or away from nuclear weapons. These paths have been difficult to predict and cannot be explained simply by a stable or changing security environment. We can make sense of these paths by examining leaders' nuclear decisions. The political decisions state leaders make to accelerate or reverse progress toward nuclear weapons define each state's course. Whether or not a state ultimately acquires nuclear weapons depends to a large extent on those nuclear decisions. This book offers a novel theory of nuclear decision-making that identifies two mechanisms that shape leaders' understandings of the costs and benefits of their n...
"This book gives a persuasive answer to the need for public theology today. Rudolf von Sinner can draw from a rich basis of scholarship and experience related to the topic of public theology. His clear awareness of the contextuality of public theology is the reason for his repeated assurance in this book that we cannot speak about "public theology" but always only of "a" public theology. At the same time it is very clear for him that there is also an "intercontextuality". One of the great strengths of this book is its embeddedness into an international discourse on public theology, with a special emphasis on the South-South exchange. It is a contribution to public theology scholarship in its best sense. I proudly welcome its publication in our series." - Bishop Prof. Dr Heinrich Bedford-Strohm, Evangelical Church of Germany Rudolf von Sinner is Professor of Systematic Theology at the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná at Curitiba, as well as Professor Extra-Ordinary at the Faculty of Theology of the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa.
