Neste livro, a autora procura apreender as redes de sociabilidades que os diferentes sujeitos, imigrantes alemães e seus descendentes, moradores da Colônia Riograndense – (Maracaí/SP), foram tecendo no interior da comunidade. Analisando alguns aspectos que cercaram o cotidiano das pessoas, nos seus espaços de lazer e trabalho, através de diferentes fontes, documentos, instituições de pesquisa e depoimentos orais, foi possível apreender como a comunidade alemã incorporou práticas culturais, ao mesmo tempo em que contribuiu na formação e constituição da Colônia e da região
A presente obra é indicada a estudantes e especialistas interessados em aprimorar os conhecimentos na ciência historiográfica. Seu destaque se dá na medida em que, além de abordar as relações interdisciplinares da História com outras ciências, analisa as fontes e temas responsáveis por nortear as pesquisas históricas nos últimos anos. Nesse sentido, trata-se de um livro rico em reflexões, provenientes de diversas fontes seguras
“Onde mora a saudade” narra a história verídica de agricultores alemães, que migraram para a Bessarábia e cruzaram o Atlântico em busca de terra e de paz. Os alemães-bessarábios têm uma narrativa ímpar, conturbada, emocionante e linda. Viveram guerras e perseguições, mas são a fé, a amizade e o trabalho, as sementes que cultivaram onde estiveram. Especialmente na década de 1920, chegaram ao Brasil e formaram as colônias Água da Colônia e Aymoré, no interior de São Paulo, que pensavam ser o seu lar definitivo.
Bacteria in various habitats are subject to continuously changing environmental conditions, such as nutrient deprivation, heat and cold stress, UV radiation, oxidative stress, dessication, acid stress, nitrosative stress, cell envelope stress, heavy metal exposure, osmotic stress, and others. In order to survive, they have to respond to these conditions by adapting their physiology through sometimes drastic changes in gene expression. In addition they may adapt by changing their morphology, forming biofilms, fruiting bodies or spores, filaments, Viable But Not Culturable (VBNC) cells or moving away from stress compounds via chemotaxis. Changes in gene expression constitute the main component...
English as a Lingua Franca, or ELF for short, is currently one of the most dynamic topics in the fields of applied and socio-linguistics and English Language Teaching. It has been a thriving field of research for the last twenty years with a growing number of books and journals dedicated to the subject. The field has also seen the foundation of an annual international ELF conference series, which started in 2008 and attracts growing numbers year on year. This book has developed out of contributions to the Second International ELF conference held in Southampton (UK) in 2009. The papers in this volume provide new insights into ELF, by presenting and exploring the implications of some of the la...
