A presença do cinema no romance brasileiro
A aproximação entre literatura e cinema, desde a invenção do cinematógrafo pelos irmãos Lumière no final do século XIX, tem se revelado profícua. Com o desenvolvimento da arte cinematográfica, cuja estética estava em sintonia com o advento da modernidade, estabeleceu-se, por parte de outros campos artísticos, em especial o literário, uma espécie de elogio estético ao cinema, sintonizado com as transformações efervescentes da vida moderna, que poderiam ser sintetizadas pelo dinamismo de sua imagem. Esta obra apresenta, portanto, um estudo acerca da presença da linguagem cinematográfica no romance brasileiro, desde a vanguarda modernista até a contemporaneidade, elegendo, p...
DIREITO E LITERATURA: conexões entre a norma e a estética da existência
Considerando as interrelações das ciências, apresentar, discutir, problematizar os atravessamentos entre norma e estética da existência foi o maior mérito dos textos que compõem essa obra. Neles se destacam a força e a energia dos posicionamentos em relação às temáticas que nos afetam cotidianamente na contemporaneidade e a travessia da Pandemia COVID-19, com o convite a ousar tornar-se parte da sociedade do porvir.
A Guide to the Latin American Art Song Repertoire
A reference guide to the vast array of art song literature and composers from Latin America, this book introduces the music of Latin America from a singer's perspective and provides a basis for research into the songs of this richly musical area of the world. The book is divided by country into 22 chapters, with each chapter containing an introductory essay on the music of the region, a catalog of art songs for that country, and a list of publishers. Some chapters include information on additional sources. Singers and teachers may use descriptive annotations (language, poet) or pedagogical annotations (range, tessitura) to determine which pieces are appropriate for their voices or programming needs, or those of their students. The guide will be a valuable resource for vocalists and researchers, however familiar they may be with this glorious repertoire.
Film History
This comprehensive survey not only acknowledges the contributions of Hollywood and films from other US sources, but broadens its scope to examine film-making internationally.
The Cambridge Introduction to Sylvia Plath
Sylvia Plath is widely recognized as one of the leading figures in twentieth-century Anglo-American literature and culture. Her work has constantly remained in print in the UK and US (and in numerous translated editions) since the appearance of her first collection in 1960. Plath's own writing has been supplemented over the decades by a wealth of critical and biographical material. The Cambridge Introduction to Sylvia Plath provides an authoritative and comprehensive guide to the poetry, prose and autobiographical writings of Sylvia Plath. It offers a critical overview of key readings, debates and issues from almost fifty years of Plath scholarship, draws attention to the historical, literary, national and gender contexts which frame her writing and presents informed and attentive readings of her own work. This accessibly written book will be of great use to students beginning their explorations of this important writer.
Principles of Sedimentary Basin Analysis
This book is intended as a practical handbook for those engaged in the task of analyzing the paleogeographic evolution of ancient sedimentary basins. The science of stratigraphy and sedimentology is central to such endeavors, but although several excellent textbooks on sedimentology have appeared in recent years little has been written about modern stratigraphic methods. Sedimentology textbooks tend to take a theoretical approach, building from physical and chemical theory and studies of mod ern environments. It is commonly difficult to apply this information to practical problems in ancient rocks, and very little guidance is given on methods of observation, mapping and interpretation. In th...
The Life and Times of Fanny Hill
Lock up the kids and head for a rollicking night out with a lady of pleasure, that notorious eighteenth century "dirty book," The Life and Times of Fanny Hill.
Compressibility of Sandstones
This book is a comprehensive treatment of the elastic volumetric response of sandstones to variations in stress. The theory and data presented apply to the deformations that occur, for example, due to withdrawal of fluid from a reservoir, or due to the redistribution of stresses caused by the drilling of a borehole. Although the emphasis is on reservoir-type sandstones, results and methods discussed are also applicable to other porous rocks.Part One concerns the effect of stress on deformation and discusses porous rock compressibility coefficients. Elasticity theory is used to derive relationships between the porous rock compressibility coefficients, the porosity, and the mineral grain compr...
Historical Biogeography of Neotropical Freshwater Fishes
“Full of the details we ichthyologists love, this book will clearly be a standard reference on South American fishes for decades to come. The amazingly detailed glossary alone may well be worth the price of the book!” --Peter B. Moyle, author of Inland Fishes of California “A major contribution to our understanding of multiple aspects of the Neotropical freshwater fish fauna. The book will be of interest not only to ichthyologists, but also to a broader audience of researchers working on freshwater organisms and general biogeographic patterns.”--Richard P. Vari, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution “An up-to-date summary of our knowledge of a major continental biodiversity area, that should attract a wide variety of readers."--William Fink, University of Michigan “Successfully brings together disparate information and introduces new data and analyses, giving a vast overview of neotropical freshwater fishes.” --Brian Crother, Southeastern Louisiana University
