The Intermediality of Contemporary Visual Arts
The Intermediality of Contemporary Visual Arts explores a range of topics within the field. The volume delves into the realm of intermediality within the visual arts. Each chapter explores a different aspect; from the evolution of Intermedial Studies over the past decades to the shifts in print typography and the emergence of “cut-ups” within a context of resistance against conventions, the concept of Visual Music and its relation to pioneering filmmaking, visual representations of intimacy as they evolve from painting to other visual formats like comics, film, and television, and finally the transmedial potential of cultural symbols in virtual reality, all of which involve greater multimodal and emotional elements that enhance audience immersion.

Comparative Literature
Comparative Literature - Interdisciplinary Considerations is a wide-ranging exploration of various aspects of comparative literature and cultural phenomena from different angles. The authors delve into intriguing topics such as literary tourism, biofiction, colonial/postcolonial literature, suspense in literature, and the interaction between different artistic mediums.

Literature and Computation
Literature and Computation presents some of the most relevantly innovative recent approaches to literary practice, theory, and criticism as driven by computation and situated in digital environments. These approaches rely on automated analyses, but use them creatively, engage in text modeling but inform it with qualitative[-interpretive] critical possibilities, and contribute to present-day platform culture in revolutionizing intermedial ways. While such new directions involve more and more sophisticated machine learning and artificial intelligence, they also mark a spectacular return of the (trans)human(istic) and of traditional-modern literary or urgent political, gender, and minority-related concerns and modes now addressed in ever subtler and more nuanced ways within human-computer interaction frameworks. Expanding the boundaries of literary and data studies, digital humanities, and electronic literature, the featured contributions unveil an emerging landscape of trailblazing practice and theoretical crossovers ready and able to spawn and/or chart the witness literature of our age and cultures.
Intermedial Ecocriticism
Intermedial Ecocriticism: The Climate Crisis Through Art and Media provides an extensive understanding of the climate crisis as it is represented in a number of medial forms, including scientific reports, popular science, graphic novels, documentaries, websites, feature films, and advertising. Theoretically, this is the first book that combines two important theories from the humanities: ecocriticism and intermedial studies. The book carefully develops Intermedial Ecocriticism as a method of investigating how climate crisis is represented and communicated through diverse media types. The chapters each include a comparative analysis of two or three specific media products and how they mediate the climate crisis.
Letters to Cristina
Paulo Freire is regarded by many as the most significant educational thinker of the twentieth century. This volume offers Freire's own intimate retrospection of his life and work.

Narrativas Infames
Este livro é fruto de uma pesquisa de Mestrado em Psicologia Institucional da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES), engendrada a partir da atuação em um Centro de Atenção Psicossocial Infanto-Juvenil (CAPSij). Nesse dispositivo da Rede de Atenção Psicossocial, fruto da Reforma Psiquiátrica, foi possível o encontro com diferentes crianças e jovens. De inspiração antimanicomial, antiproibicionista e antirracista, este livro se fortalece pelo diálogo com os autores que se relacionam a essas lutas. Por meio de narrativas, são apresentadas vidas de jovens infames. O racismo, proibicionismo, patologização, medicalização, criminalização, tutela, judicialização, questões de gênero e classe, dentre outras forças, marcam os corpos dessa juventude e nos convocam a repensar as políticas públicas, as práticas de cuidado e a transversalizar o pensamento e as práticas. É na trama dos jogos de poder, apesar de todas as tentativas de docilização desses corpos jovens e infames, que eles desafiam os governos da vida e insistem em resistir.
