"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.

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 ...
