Meu menino vadio
O jornalista Luiz Fernando Vianna e seu filho, Henrique, são unha e carne — às vezes unha do filho na carne do pai. Henrique é autista. Pouco fala, mas algumas palavras repete à exaustão. Tem momentos de agressividade contra si mesmo e contra terceiros. Sabe ser irônico. Gosta de desenhos animados e de mergulhar no mar. Como todo adolescente, tem suas curiosidades e seus impulsos, só que sem grande cerimônia. Luiz Fernando decifra os sons que ele emite, seus desejos imediatos e muitos de seus silêncios, no entanto não tem como alcançar o que o filho sente lá no fundo do fundo. Há quem diga que ter um filho com deficiência é uma benção. Luiz Fernando Vianna discorda. Se fosse mesmo um presente, antes de receber ele diria: “Ah, não precisava.” Com toda a franqueza e um pouco de música, o autor conta a sua experiência, cheia de altos e baixos, momentos de ternura e também de desespero ao lado do seu menino vadio.

A Poverty of Rights

From Sea-bathing to Beach-going
In From Sea-Bathing to Beach-Going B. J. Barickman explores how a narrow ocean beachfront neighborhood and the distinctive practice of beach-going invented by its residents in the early twentieth century came to symbolize a city and a nation. Nineteenth-century Cariocas (residents of Rio) ostensibly practiced sea-bathing for its therapeutic benefits, but the bathing platforms near the city center and the rocky bay shore of Flamengo also provided places to see and be seen. Sea-bathing gave way to beach-going and sun-tanning in the new beachfront neighborhood of Copacabana in the 1920s. This study reveals the social and cultural implications of this transformation and highlights the distinctive changes to urban living that took place in the Brazilian capital. Deeply informed by scholarship about race, class, and gender, as well as civilization and modernity, space, the body, and the role of the state in shaping urban development, this work provides a major contribution to the social and cultural history of Rio de Janeiro and to the history of leisure.
