Olhares e Intercâmbios Latino-Americanos
Ana Lúcia Trevisan, Regina Crespo e Rodolfo Mata são professores e pesquisadores que se dedicam há muito tempo a refletir sobre a literatura e a cultura latino-americana. A partir de uma perspectiva comparada, seus estudos têm propiciado uma reflexão crítica e plural sobre o continente, aproximando as diversas linguagens da arte, bem como os diferentes contextos históricos e sociais. Os vínculos acadêmicos entre os professores revelam o esforço para sedimentar o intercâmbio entre o Programa de pós-graduação em Letras da Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie e os Programas de pós-graduação em Letras e em Estudos Latino-americanos da Universidade Nacional Autônoma do México, ...

Practicing Culture
Practicing Culture seeks to revitalize the field of cultural sociology with an emphasis not on abstract theoretical debates but on showing how to put theoretical sources to work in empirical research. Culture is not just products and representations but practices. It is made and remade in countless small ways and occasional bursts of innovation. It is something people do – and do in rich variety and distinctive contexts as engaging case studies from the book reveal. For example: in Russia’s most Western city, Kaliningrad, residents dig for artifacts symbolizing a German past – even though their parents only migrated to what was once Konigsberg after WWII in the USA, fans of professiona...
Experiencing Identity
`I recommend this book to all readers interested in thinking about the self; I am sure that anyone who reads it will come away with some new ideas′ - Therapeutic Communities This critical and comprehensive examination of the relation of theory and identity discusses definitions of identity in classical social theory, modern social theory and psychoanalysis. The introduction is a critique of existing sociological accounts of identity, arguing that these are incurably cognitive, treating the people that they study as incapable of experiencing an internal life or internal space. The book then considers the implications of this in social theory and human practice.
If Anything Happens I Love You
We feel so strongly in the power of this book to start an important conversation that we’re offering it free through October 26, 2022. "Heavy pain exquisitely rendered."" Kirkus Starred Review Based on the Academy Award-winning animated short by the same name, If Anything Happens I Love You is a young adult graphic novel that follows two parents as they reckon with the loss of their young daughter, Rose, in a school shooting. Readers follow Rose from “above” as she watches her parents slowly break down under the weight and pain of their loss. Throughout the novel, Rose’s soul seeks to help her parents reconnect. We learn who Rose was and how much life she lived in her short time. By incorporating a wide range of characters, her boyfriend, teacher, and her cat, Rose is able to introduce healing into the lives of the people she left behind. If Anything Happens I Love You may be a story about loss, but in it we see ourselves—in the grief, the pain, and, most importantly, in the fight toward human connection, love, and acceptance.
Winterverno
*LIVRO VENDIDO NO ESTADO. O livro pode conter pequenas manchas em função da ação do tempo. Não será permitida troca do livro, exceto em caso de defeitos gráficos. ... “o que um dia foi meu, nunca vai ser passado”: assim termina um dos poemas deste, a rigor, último livro do Paulo. Outros virão, mas aqui ele ainda pincelou, com seu parceiro João, a forma que o livro teria. Um pouco antes de ir. Mas não é um livro, é, como deve ser, um objeto estético, um álbum de arte, graças à cumplicidade com o traço do João, que, talvez por ser poeta também, soube criar ressonâncias entre a imagem e a palavra sem que uma interferisse na outra. winterverno , mesmo com inverno dentro,...
