Brazil is the first work of fiction to depict five centuries of a great nation's remarkable history, its evolution from colony to kingdom, from empire to modern republic. With a stunning cast of real and fictional characters, the story unfolds in South America, Africa and Europe.Two families dominate this extraordinary novel. The Cavalcantis are among the original settlers and establish the classic Brazilian plantation -- vast, powerful, built with slave labor. The da Silvas represent the second element in both contemporary and historical Brazil: pathfinders and prospectors. For generations, these adventurers have their eyes set on El Dorado, which they ultimately find -- in a coffee fazenda...

Additive Manufacturing Hybrid Processes for Composites Systems

This book focuses on the emerging additive manufacturing technology and its applications beyond state-of-the-art, fibre-reinforced thermoplastics. It also discusses the development of a hybrid, integrated process that combines additive and subtractive operations in a single-step platform, allowing CAD-to-Part production with freeform shapes using long or continuous fibre-reinforced thermoplastics. The book covers the entire value chain of this next-generation technology, from part design and materials composition to transformation stages, product evaluation, and end-of-life studies. Moreover, it addresses the following engineering issues: • Design rules for hybrid additive manufacturing; ...

Volume 1 - Peças Psicológicas e Míticas

Nelson Rodrigues revolucionou a dramaturgia brasileira com as 17 peças que escreveu ao longo de quase quarenta anos. Sua escrita polêmica e inovadora abalou os alicerces da nossa sociedade, dividindo opiniões, provocando intensos debates e tornando o teatro brasileiro conhecido internacionalmente. Considerado o maior clássico da nossa literatura dramática, Nelson Rodrigues foi responsável por inaugurar e consolidar o modernismo no teatro brasileiro. Sua crítica aguçada e seu estilo inconfundível ultrapassam em muito a época em que as peças foram escritas e chegam até nós com a mesma contundência e genialidade. Neste volume, com apresentação de Luiz Arthur Nunes, são reunidas as "Peças Psicológicas" de Nelson Rodrigues: "A Mulher Sem Pecado", "Vestido de Noiva", "Valsa no 6", "Viúva, Porém Honesta" e "Anti-Nelson Rodrigues" e as "Peças Míticas": "Álbum de família", "Anjo negro", "Doroteia" e "Senhora dos afogados".
