Sobre as poéticas do dizer: Pesquisas e reflexões em oralidade
Este livro reúne textos de pesquisadores de diversas proveniências disciplinares e geográficas que se reuniram em maio de 2009 no colóquio Literatura, História e Oralidade, realizado na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul.

Professores Gays, quem se Importa com Eles? Um Estudo Autoetnográfico da Homofobia contra Professores Gays nas Escolas
O livro Professores gays, quem se importa com eles? Um estudo autoetnográfico da homofobia contra professores gays nas escolas traz no seu corpo a trajetória e os dissabores vividos por um professor que, por meio da análise de cenas de homofobia, relata episódios aos quais esteve exposto durante seu cotidiano em uma escola de subúrbio. Neste livro, os leitores terão contato com cenas do meu cotidiano, que por não me encaixar nos moldes falocêntricos exigidos socialmente, vi-me diante de demonstrações de violência homofóbica dentro das escolas em que lecionei ao longo da carreira até então. Por não aceitar viver dentro do armário, vi-me por muitas vezes no epicentro de situaç...
Metodologias e subjetividades
Esta obra surge a partir das discussões e relatos de experiências produzidos no âmbito da disciplina “Laboratório de métodos para compreensão da Cultura e Subjetividade”, ocorrida entre agosto e outubro de 2021, em período pandêmico e por este motivo realizada online. Diante de tal situação a intenção foi pensar em como a academia, e, mais especificamente, as metodologias poderiam abrir espaço para a exposição das subjetividades. As trocas no decorrer da disciplina foram repletas de afeto e aconchego e ainda que não houvesse o contato físico tudo ficou marcado nas subjetividades dos autores e organizadoras de maneira muito profunda. E é parte disso que esta obra pretende trazer ao leitor.
East Timor
This atlas highlights the specific features and characteristics of the new country of East Timor. Using statistical documentary resources available since the colonial period, its 136 colorful maps show how material constraints and local, regional, and world stakes have shaped Timor's destiny, both past and present. On May 20, 2002, East Timor gained independence under the name of Timor Leste or Timor Lorosa'e: Sunrise Timor. This insular ethno-linguistic mosaic wedged between Southeast Asia and Oceania had been a colony of Portugal for four centuries before it was invaded by Indonesian forces in 1975. Frederic Durand teaches geography at Toulouse II-Le Mirail University, France. He is the author of Catholicism and Protestantism in the Island of Timor and other works on Southeast Asia, the Malay world, and Indonesia.

Oral Literature in Africa
Ruth Finnegan's Oral Literature in Africa was first published in 1970, and since then has been widely praised as one of the most important books in its field. Based on years of fieldwork, the study traces the history of storytelling across the continent of Africa. This revised edition makes Finnegan's ground-breaking research available to the next generation of scholars. It includes a new introduction, additional images and an updated bibliography, as well as its original chapters on poetry, prose, "drum language" and drama, and an overview of the social, linguistic and historical background of oral literature in Africa. This book is the first volume in the World Oral Literature Series, an ongoing collaboration between OBP and World Oral Literature Project. A free online archive of recordings and photographs that Finnegan made during her fieldwork in the late 1960s is hosted by the World Oral Literature Project (http: //www.oralliterature.org/collections/rfinnegan001.html) and can also be accessed from publisher's website.

Uncertain Justice
In 1754 Eleanor Powers was hung for a murder committed during a botched robbery. She was the first woman condemned to die in Canada, but would not be the last. In Uncertain Justice, Beverley Boissery and Murray Greenwood portray a cast of women characters almost as often wronged by the law as they have wronged society. Starting with the Powers trial and continuing to the not-too-distant past, the authors expose the patriarchal values that lie at the core of criminal law, and the class and gender biases that permeate its procedures and applications. The writing style is similar to that of a popular mystery: "Harriet Henry lay dead. Horribly and indubitably. Her body sprawled against the bed, the head twisted at a grotesque angle. Foam engulfed the grinning mouth." Scholarly analysis combines with the narrative to make Uncertain Justice a fascinating and engaging read. There is a wealth of information about the emerging and evolving legal system and profession, the state of forensic science, the roles of juries, and the political turmoil and growing resistance to a purely class-based aristocratic form of government.
