Histórias no Singular: Textos, Práticas & Sujeitos
Histórias no Singular: textos, práticas & sujeitos, livro organizado por Giselle Martins Venancio, Nayara Galeno do Vale e André Furtado, reúne uma plêiade de jovens pesquisadores brasileiros instigados em desvelar e compreender as ações e trajetórias de diferentes sujeitos sociais. Personagens de histórias em quadrinhos, historiadores, folcloristas, educadoras, escritores, entre outros são aqui abordados, promovendo uma enriquecedora discussão acerca do papel do indivíduo e de seu contexto social. Desde a Grécia clássica que os historiadores costuravam suas narrativas por intermédio de discursos (logoi) e ações de diversos personagens. Em Hecateu de Mileto, Heródoto e Tucídides, historiadores do VI e V séculos a.C., são exploradas as atuações de generais, guerreiros, sacerdotes, tiranos e reis.

Com linguagem voltada para adolescentes e jovens, em sua trajetória de construção do saber histórico, O dia a dia da Independência busca aliar entretenimento, pesquisa, atividades, leitura, à investigação desse evento tão significativo ao entendimento de várias questões sociais, políticas e culturais para nós brasileiros, na atualidade.

Hitler's Forgotten Children
Hitler’s Forgotten Children is both a harrowing personal memoir and a devastating investigation into the awful crimes and monstrous scope of the Lebensborn program in World War 2. Created by Heinrich Himmler, the Lebensborn program abducted as many as half a million children from across Europe. Through a process called Germanization, they were to become the next generation of the Aryan master race in the second phase of the Final Solution. In the summer of 1942, parents across Nazi-occupied Yugoslavia were required to submit their children to medical checks designed to assess racial purity. One such child, Erika Matko, was nine months old when Nazi doctors declared her fit to be a “Child...
Exotic Commodities
Exotic Commodities is the first book to chart the consumption and spread of foreign goods in China from the mid-nineteenth century to the advent of communism in 1949. Richly illustrated and revealing, this volume recounts how exotic commodities were acquired and adapted in a country commonly believed to have remained "hostile toward alien things" during the industrial era. China was not immune to global trends that prized the modern goods of "civilized" nations. Foreign imports were enthusiastically embraced by both the upper and lower classes and rapidly woven into the fabric of everyday life, often in inventive ways. Scarves, skirts, blouses, and corsets were combined with traditional garm...
A Literary Tour de France
The publishing industry in France in the years before the Revolution was a lively and sometimes rough-and-tumble affair, as publishers and printers scrambled to deal with (and if possible evade) shifting censorship laws and tax regulations, in order to cater to a reading public's appetite for books of all kinds, from the famous Encyclop die, repository of reason and knowledge, to scandal-mongering libel and pornography. Historian and librarian Robert Darnton uses his exclusive access to a trove of documents-letters and documents from authors, publishers, printers, paper millers, type founders, ink manufacturers, smugglers, wagon drivers, warehousemen, and accountants-involving a publishing h...

The Colours of the Empire
The Portuguese Colonial Empire established its base in Africa in the fifteenth century and would not be dissolved until 1975. This book investigates how the different populations under Portuguese rule were represented within the context of the Colonial Empire by examining the relationship between these representations and the meanings attached to the notion of ‘race’. Colour, for example, an apparently objective criterion of classification, became a synonym or near-synonym for ‘race’, a more abstract notion for which attempts were made to establish scientific credibility. Through her analysis of government documents, colonial propaganda materials and interviews, the author employs an anthropological perspective to examine how the existence of racist theories, originating in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, went on to inform the policy of the Estado Novo (Second Republic, 1933–1974) and the production of academic literature on ‘race’ in Portugal. This study provides insight into the relationship between the racist formulations disseminated in Portugal and the racist theories produced from the eighteenth century onward in Europe and beyond.
