Nise da Silveira
Encontros (Meetings) is the largest and most prestigious book collection of interviews with Brazilian artists and thinkers. With more than 50 published titles, Encontros provides a broad panorama of Brazil's cultural and intellectual wealth. Nise da Silveira is one of the most fascinating and restless Brazilian personalities. As a psychiatrist, she started a revolutionary work based on her non-conformism with the psychiatric practices used in the 1950s, such as electroshock, insulin therapy, lobotomy and confinement. Humanistic and libertarian, her work has achieved international recognition for the creation of the Museum of Images of the Unconscious and the Casa da Palmeiras. This book brings together, in the voice of Nise herself, her ideas and personal trajectory.
O mundo das imagens
“O mundo das imagens” é uma continuação do primeiro livro, “Imagens do inconsciente”, abordando as tentativas de mudança da psiquiatria atual, as histórias de vida dos frequentadores dos ateliês, associando as sutis relações entre mundo externo e mundo interno e os temas arquetípicos tão comuns nas vivências esquizofrênicas.

Learning from Madness
Throughout the history of European modernism, philosophers and artists have been fascinated by madness. Something different happened in Brazil, however, with the “art of the insane” that flourished within the modernist movements there. From the 1920s to the 1960s, the direction and creation of art by the mentally ill was actively encouraged by prominent figures in both medicine and art criticism, which led to a much wider appreciation among the curators of major institutions of modern art in Brazil, where pieces are included in important exhibitions and collections. Kaira M. Cabañas shows that at the center of this advocacy stood such significant proponents as psychiatrists Osório Cés...
IMAGENS DO INCONSCIENTE
Imagens do Inconsciente traz dados reunidos através de muitos anos de experiência vivida no hospital psiquiátrico pela autora Nise da Silveira. Neste trabalho ela não se inspirou na psiquiatria caracterizada pela escassa atenção que concede aos fenômenos intrapsíquicos em curso durante a psicose. Ao contrário, o interesse maior foi o de penetrar, pouco que fosse, no mundo interno do esquizofrênico.
Displacing Theory Through the Global South
Displacing Theory Through the Global South calls for reflection on the historical and geopolitical inequalities that have shaped theorization. It asserts that what appears 'universal' often involves generalizations that flatten the particular. Critiquing the colonialist, imperialist, and Eurocentric perspectives that have historically impacted theorization in general and, more specifically, knowledge production about the so-called Global South, this volume seeks a different form of engagement that moves beyond such strictures. Featuring essays that unsettle distinctions between the general and the particular, it proposes a commitment to expanding notions of universality, making theorization not only relevant and generative, but ultimately, transformative.

Mind Fixers: Psychiatry's Troubled Search for the Biology of Mental Illness
“Superb… a nuanced account of biological psychiatry.” —Richard J. McNally In Mind Fixers, “the preeminent historian of neuroscience” (Science magazine) Anne Harrington explores psychiatry’s repeatedly frustrated efforts to understand mental disorder. She shows that psychiatry’s waxing and waning theories have been shaped not just by developments in the clinic and lab, but also by a surprising range of social factors. Mind Fixers recounts the past and present struggle to make mental illness a biological problem in order to lay the groundwork for creating a better future.
Jung: Vida e obra
Jung: vida e obra, escrito pela revolucionária psiquiatra Nise da Silveira e título responsável por introduzir gerações de brasileiras e brasileiros às teorias de C.G. Jung, retorna às livrarias em nova edição. Em 12 de novembro de 1954, Nise da Silveira escreveu uma carta ao psiquiatra C. G. Jung: "Mestre, no centro psiquiátrico do Rio de Janeiro, há, ao lado de outros setores de atividade do serviço de ocupação terapêutica, um ateliê onde os doentes desenham e pintam na mais completa liberdade. [...] E, assim, imagens primordiais emergem nessas pinturas, trazendo uma empírica e convincente demonstração da psicologia analítica." Graças a esse primeiro contato corajoso s...
