The New Bosnian Mosaic
Since the violent events of the Bosnian war and the revelations of ethnic cleansing that shocked the world in the early 1990s, Bosnia has become a metaphor for the new ethnic nationalisms, for the transformation of warfare in the post-Cold War era, and for new forms of peacekeeping and state-building. This book is unique in offering a re-examination of the Bosnian case with a 'bottom-up' perspective. It gathers together cultural anthropologists and other social scientists to consider the specificities of the Bosnian case. However, the book also raises broader questions: what are the consequences of internecine violence and how should societies attempt to overcome them? Are the uncertainties and the transformations of Bosnian post-war society due entirely to the war, or are they related to wider processes encompassing post-communist Europe as a whole? And are the difficulties experienced by international state-building operations mainly due to distinctive features of the local societies or are they due to the policies promoted by the international community itself?
O Último Exorcista
O Padre Amorth, o exorcista mais influente da Igreja Católica, falecido em 2016. Aqui – aos 87 anos, com mais de 160 mil exorcismos realizados – conta a sua longa vida na luta contra Satanás: possessões atrozes, histórias chocantes, narradas para alertar o homem comum, mas também a própria Igreja, culpada pelo padre de não acreditar mais na existência do demónio. Este lançou uma denúncia chocante: a Igreja já não acredita na existência do demónio, os bispos já não nomeiam exorcistas nas suas dioceses e já não há jovens sacerdotes dispostos a aprender a doutrina e a prática da libertação das almas. Uma nova introdução de Paolo Rodari esclarece?nos sobre o legado deste homem e explica porque é que a sua figura continua a suscitar grande interesse em todo o mundo. A confissão do padre Amorth revela pormenores perturbadores: Satanás habita as salas do Vaticano. A luta contra o mal, que começou na origem do mundo, está destinada a durar até ao fim dos tempos, mas estamos na batalha final.

One More for the Road
Recounts the life and career of Croatian filmmaker Rajko Grlić in the form of a lexicon of film terms tied to anecdotes spanning Grlić’s life. “I read a lot this year. Old, new, borrowed, blue. This was the best. The paradox of reading something so avidly that you can’t put it down and then I got to the last 20 pages slowing down to a snail’s pace and reading so slowly so that it wouldn’t be over so quickly.”—Mike Downey, European Film Academy From his post-Nazi-era childhood in Yugoslavia to his college years during the 1968 invasion of Prague, the Yugoslav dissolution wars, and his subsequent exile in the United States, these personal stories combine to provide insight into...
