Pesquisar com a escola

“não habitar a escola como meros espectadores, mas como ativos inquiridores, atuantes na sua construção cotidiana” (GALLO, MENDONÇA, 2020, p.15) As palavras escolhidas como epígrafe desta apresentação materializam o convite que desejamos fazer aos leitores deste livro. Enquanto pesquisadores, professores e estudantes não podemos agir como meros espectadores que apenas habitam o espaço da escola. Tal postura faria de nós apenas reprodutores de práticas historicamente enraizadas e naturalizadas no e pelo cotidiano escolar. No lugar disso, assumimos a postura de inquiridores da escola, porém não no sentido de julgadores do que se passa e do que se faz na escola. Tomar o lugar de ativos inquiridores da escola significa interrogar-se constantemente sobre as suas práticas, seus saberes, suas verdades e seus modos de ser no espaço/tempo contemporâneo. É esse o exercício que tentamos fazer neste livro e que convidamos os leitores a partilhar conosco. Um exercício que não parta da “escola em sua generalidade, mas se ocupe sempre de uma escola que pulsa, vive e ressoa em todos os seus habitantes” (GALLO, MENDONÇA, 2020, p. 14).

Italy Revisited

Italy Revisited

Drawing out her mother's childhood memories of life in southern Italy at the dawn of the twentieth century, Mary Melfi takes an unconventional approach to autobiographical writing. Italy Revisited serves as a double memoir, told in dialogue between a mother and a daughter. The conversation takes the reader to a medieval town high up in the mountains where time is told by the shadow the sun casts, where wheat and olive oil are the currency of choice (barter is in use), and where marriage is as much about property as it is about love. As they re-create that vanished world, the pair finds greater understanding of the tumultuous relationships that sometimes exist between immigrant mothers and their children.

From Research to Clinical Practice

It is an intriguing feature of human experience that in our present world, amid thousands of indications of the effectiveness of the scientific method, so many of us persist in demonstrably illusory or magical beliefs whether religiously related or simply reflections of long-standing superstitions. At a time when millions can observe on television the first landings of human beings on the moon, when our daily lives in the so-called devel oped countries are replete with conveniences that reflect scientific advances, we still persist in daily wagers on the state lotteries, in paying astrologers or palmists for their readings, in investing thousands of dollars and hours of our legislators' time in discussing such issues as the value of daily prayer in the elementary schools. The emergence of modem medicine based increasingly on scientific research in chemistry, biology, and physics has considerably reduced people's resort to sha mans and witch doctors within the major sectors of our own society, although it has by no means eliminated such practitioners.

Psychotherapy Process

Whatever else it may be, psychotherapy offers a clear form of human com passion channeled through myriad assumptions about the causes and solu tions of human distress. There has, of course, been a longstanding debate about whether the psychotherapist is best described (and trained) as an artisan or a scientist. Volumes of scholarly argument have also addressed such themes as the essential ingredients of psychotherapy, the role of tech nique, the importance of client characteristics, and the significance of the therapist's personality. Experts have defended a wide range of opinions on these issues and have mustered evidence to support their individual claims. The purpose of the present volume...

Islandia

Islandia

Islandia is a masterful, mixed-genre (prose-poetry and verse) literary work, alternating passages that tell of an island race of exiled, conquering, Nordic heroes, who have landed on and settled an island (presumably Iceland) and remained there for generations, self-enthralled by their own identities as sung in their own Sagas; and the sophisticated and complexly ironical, lyrical verses of the author's own persona, herself isolated, self-reflective, and exiled -- in present-day New York City. Themes from the two aspects of the work seem to approach each other without ever quite touching, across a chasm of mutually re-enforcing but sharply distinct senses of absence. The work is brilliantly translated from the Spanish by Anne Twitty and is presented here in a bi-lingual edition....an extraordinary cycle of poems written in two very different and contrasting forms-the Nordic, masculine, epic style of the prose poems, and the Mediterranean, feminine, mannered, lyric style, of the others. Anne Twitty's translation of this masterful cycle has itself been carried out with great mastery.-Esther Allen
