Este livro apresenta a evolução da ocupação demográfica e econômica do vale do Rio Doce, em Minas Gerais, a partir de um estudo que demandou quatro anos de intensa pesquisa sobre a história da região. Marco Antônio Tavares Coelho resgata aqui todo o processo (e toda a dificuldade) de ocupação dos "brancos", que, a princípio, eram proibidos pela Coroa portuguesa de explorar "os sertões do leste", pelo difícil acesso que a vegetação lhes proporcionava e pelos "índios botocudos", considerados – erroneamente – antropofágicos perigosos. Após o esgotamento de minério em outras áreas do estado, é que teve início a corrente migratória para a Zona da Mata e, posteriormente...
Brasilien gehörte in der Nachkriegszeit zu den aufstrebenden Ländern, mit denen die junge Bundesrepublik kulturpolitische Verbindungen etablierte. Anhand der vielfältigen Modernitätsbestrebungen in Brasilien und Deutschland analysiert und vergleicht Susanne Neubauer die Verflechtungen zwischen Museumspolitiken, (Re-)Demokratisierungsbestrebungen und dem disziplinübergreifenden Diskurs um das Menschenbild nach der Zäsur des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Aus außereuropäischer Perspektive wirft sie einen Blick auf die Wertungen des Menschen in den kulturellen Umwelten und beleuchtet damit Mechanismen der Entwicklung westlicher Kanonisierungen der modernen Kunst.

This work is concentrated in the study of the production for multi-family and single family housing by architect David Libeskind (b. Brazil 1928). This survey fills a gap on the little studied architect. Among his many projects, one that is most emblematic is the Conjunto Nacional, on Avenida Paulista in Sao Paulo. Other aspects in this study, and basic to the understanding the work of Likeskind, is this interest in art. He is also noted for his artistic production as a graphic illustrator during the 1950s and 1960s.
O principal objetivo da pesquisa foi estudar a possível influência das tendências expressionistas nas obras de autores dos anos 1980 e 1990, em Belo Horizonte. Não se trata de um estudo detalhado de todas as manifestações, e sim de uma análise em torno de alguns artistas. Para atingir esse objetivo, foi necessário examinar a tendência expressionista estudando o seu conceito, exemplos do expressionismo ao longo da História da Arte, os movimentos expresziionistas na Alemanha (Die Brücke, 1905-1913, e Der Blaue Reiter, 1911-1914) e a ocorrência de algumas tendências na arte mundial e brasileira no Século XX. Como também, “estalecer um quadro significativo das forças externas e...
