Paulo Emílio Salles Gomes
Paulo Emílio Salles Gomes (1916–77) is revered in Brazil as the first ardent defender, promoter and theorist of Brazilian cinema. A film professor, critic and historian, his dedication to cinema shaped a generation of influential film critics in his home country, and set the foundations for the serious study of film in Brazil. For the first time in English, this book brings together a selection of his essays for an English-speaking audience, with detailed explanatory introductions to each section for readers unfamiliar with the context of the writings of Salles Gomes. By blending together ruminations on global and national cinema, as well as avant-garde film and popular movies, the collection shows how the defence and promotion of a national cinema has been forged through dialogues with international trends, informed by commercial influences, and shaped by global and national political contexts. The book thus introduces readers to the international dimensions of Salles Gomes’s engagements with film, and in doing so reassesses the locatedness of his formulations on national cinema and signals their international dimensions.
Políticas públicas com cidadania
Esta obra foi pensada sob uma perspectiva contemporânea, cujo propósito seminal foi reunir trabalhos que contivessem análises críticas capazes de promover uma reflexão no âmbito das políticas públicas, demarcando territórios e tempos que expusessem a contextualização deste campo de estudo realçando a sua proeminência com a gestão social, a participação do sujeito social e a democracia.
Hoje é dia de sarau!
Dar aula de literatura é muito mais do que lidar com o cânone, muito mais do que fazer alunos decorarem estilos de época e autores consagrados. Talvez a literatura sequer possa ser ensinada, talvez ela nos arrebate assim, de repente, em verso e prosa, como por vezes parece acontecer num sarau: alguém recita o que precisa expressar; outro alguém assimila o que precisa sentir. Alexsandra, Luana, Luciana e Suelen têm feito isso ao entregarem aos seus alunos o protagonismo que lhes é de direito. Fábio Carlos de Mattos da Fonseca
The Internet and Health in Brazil

Graciliano Ramos and the Making of Modern Brazil
Graciliano Ramos and the Making of Modern Brazil brings updated criticism in English on the work of the prominent Brazilian writer Graciliano Ramos (1892–1953), a key figure in understanding the making of modern Brazil. Building on existing literature, this book innovates through chapters that consider issues such as Ramos’s dialogue with literary tradition, his cultural legacy for contemporary writers, and his treatment of racial discrimination and gender inequality through the multifarious, provocative and enduringly fascinating characters he created. The volume also addresses the question of Ramos’s political involvement during the years of the Getulio Vargas government (1930–45), to revisit established readings of the author’s politics. Through close reading of individual works as well as comparative analyses, this volume takes readers into the complexities of modernisation in Brazil, and highlights the writer’s significance for our understanding of Brazil today.
