A Little Larger Than the Entire Universe

The largest and richest English-language volume of poetry from “the greatest twentieth-century writer you have never heard of” (Los Angeles Times) Edited, Translated, and with an Introduction by Richard Zenith, the author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist Pessoa: A Biography A Penguin Classic Writing obsessively in French, English, and Portuguese, poet Fernando Pessoa (1888–1935) left a prodigious body of work, much of it credited to three “heteronyms”―Alberto Caeiro, Ricardo Reis, and Alvaro de Campos―alter egos with startlingly different styles, points of view, and biographies. Offering a unique sampling of his most famous voices, this collection features Pessoa’s major, best-known works and several stunning poems that have come to light only in this century, including his long, highly autobiographical swan song. Featuring a rich body of work that has never before been translated into English, this is the finest introduction available to the stunning breadth of Pessoa’s genius.

Address in Portuguese and Spanish

Address in Portuguese and Spanish

The volume provides the first systematic comparative approach to the history of forms of address in Portuguese and Spanish, in their European and American varieties. Both languages share a common history—e.g., the personal union of Philipp II of Spain and Philipp I of Portugal; the parallel colonization of the Americas by Portugal and Spain; the long-term transformation from a feudal to a democratic system—in which crucial moments in the diachrony of address took place. To give one example, empirical data show that the puzzling late spread of Sp. usted ‘you (formal, polite)’ and Pt. você ‘you’ across America can be explained for both languages by the role of the political and military colonial administration. To explore these new insights, the volume relies on an innovative methodology, as it links traditional downstream diachrony with upstream diachronic reconstruction based on synchronic variation. Including theoretical reflections as well as fine-grained empirical studies, it brings together the most relevant authors in the field.

UM (OUTRO) OLHAR SOBRE A PESSOA COM DEFICIÊNCIA OS DIREITOS DOS INVISÍVEIS

Exclusão, segregação, integração e, nos tempos atuais, inclusão, marcam um percurso, ao qual estão subjacentes concepções e práticas, relativamente às quais, no caso da inclusão das pessoas com deficiência, a adoção de políticas públicas eficazes, a conscientização da sociedade e a educação constituem fatores fundamentais à sua implementação. A questão ganha contornos ainda mais relevantes quando se trata de analisar as possibilidades de espaços para as pessoas com deficiência no Brasil. Desvencilhar-se de preconceitos e discriminação, além da necessidade premente de conscientização quanto à diversidade no ambiente de trabalho também sob o aspecto da inclus...
