Retratos da infância e juventude:

"Ficamos felizes em poder falar do sucesso da experiência de Assis. Essa publicação muito nos anima, principalmente pelo potencial de encorajar milhares de municípios a seguir a mesma trilha. Mais que apresentar um projeto, o ato de compartilhar o aprendizado adquirido mostra possibilidades de atuação, o que pode ser muito enriquecedor." - Sérgio Mindlin, Presidente da Fundação Telefônica. "A iniciativa da Rede Ciranda da Criança e do Adolescente, vinculada ao Conselho Municipal de Direitos da Criança e do Adolescente, o livro abarca um amplo conjunto de práticas sociais em curso nos últimos anos no município de Assis. Divulgá-las já seria uma relevante contribuição. Contudo, este livro vai além, incorporando um conjunto de capítulos com reflexões e análises sobre aquelas experiências e contribuindo para qualificar o debate sobre o tema, seus desafios e perspectivas." - Márcia Lopes, Ministra do Desenvolvimento Social e Combate à Fome do Governo Lula.

Shadowing the Anthropocene: Eco-Realism for Turbulent Times

A spectre is haunting humanity: the spectre of a reality that will outwit and, in the end, bury us. "The Anthropocene," or The Human Era, is an attempt to name our geological fate - that we will one day disappear into the layer-cake of Earth's geology - while highlighting humanity in the starring role of today's Earthly drama. In Shadowing the Anthropocene, Adrian Ivakhiv proposes an ecological realism that takes as its starting point humanity's eventual demise. The only question for a realist today, he suggests, is what to do now and what quality of compost to leave behind with our burial. The book engages with the challenges of the Anthropocene and with a series of philosophical efforts to...

Art from a Fractured Past

Peru's Truth and Reconciliation Commission not only documented the political violence of the 1980s and 1990s but also gave Peruvians a unique opportunity to examine the causes and nature of that violence. In Art from a Fractured Past, scholars and artists expand on the commission's work, arguing for broadening the definition of the testimonial to include various forms of artistic production as documentary evidence. Their innovative focus on representation offers new and compelling perspectives on how Peruvians experienced those years and how they have attempted to come to terms with the memories and legacies of violence. Their findings about Peru offer insight into questions of art, memory, ...

Spanish Poetry of the Twentieth Century

Twentieth-century Spanish poetry has received comparatively little attention from critics writing in English. Andrew Debicki now presents the first English-language history published in the United States to examine the sweep of modern Spanish verse. More important, he is the first to situate Spanish poetry in the context of European modernity, to trace its trajectory from the symbolists to the postmodernists. Avoiding the rigid generational schemes and catalogs of names found in traditional Hispanic literary histories, Debicki offers detailed discussions of salient books and texts to construct an original and compelling view of his subject. He demonstrates that contemporary Spanish verse is ...
