Viagem à Calábria

Viagem à Calábria conta a história de um personagem em busca de suas origens. Na verdade, mais do que isso, a ida até a Itália e o reencontro com o irmão representam a resposta que enfim pode lhe trazer paz: por que, logo após o golpe de 64, seu irmão, Zuiudo, teria revelado à polícia o local em que ele e o pai se escondiam? Os irmãos passeiam pela região da Calábria em meio a diversas lembranças. As cenas de sua infância em Uberlândia voltam à cabeça como flashes. Em instantes, o protagonista se transporta para sua meninice no cerrado, onde, aos 11 anos, via as dificuldades e a tristeza do pai – caixeiro-viajante que ensaia Antígona com a trupe de teatro que criara com ...

To Be Continued... explores the world's most popular form of television drama; the soap opera. From Denver to Delhi, Moscow to Manchester, audiences eagerly await the next episode of As the World Turns, The Rich Also Weep or Eastenders. But the popularity of soap operas in Britain and the US pales in comparison to the role that they play in media cultures in other parts of the world. To Be Continued... investigates both the cultural specificity of television soap operas and their reception in other cultures, covering soap production and soap watching in the U.S., Asia, Europe, Australia and Latin America. The contributors consider the nature of soap as a media text, the history of the serial narrative as a form, and the role of the soap opera in the development of feminist media criticism. To Be Continued... presents the first scholarly examination of soap opera as global media phenomenon.

The Politics of Military Rule in Brazil, 1964-1985

The largest and most important country in Latin America, Brazil was the first to succumb to the military coups that struck that region in the 1960s and the early 1970s. In this authoritative study, Thomas E. Skidmore, one of America's leading experts on Latin America and, in particular, on Brazil, offers the first analysis of more than two decades of military rule, from the overthrow of João Goulart in 1964, to the return of democratic civilian government in 1985 with the presidency of José Sarney. A sequel to Skidmore's highly acclaimed Politics in Brazil, 1930-1964, this volume explores the military rule in depth. Why did the military depose Goulart? What kind of "economic miracle" did t...

A Forced Agreement

During much of the military regime in Brazil (1964-1985), an elaborate but illegal system of restrictions prevented the press from covering important news or criticizing the government. In this intriguing new book, Anne-Marie Smith investigates why the press acquiesced to this system, and why this state-administered system of restrictions was known as "self-censorship." Smith argues that it was routine, rather than fear, that kept the lid on Brazil's press. The banality of state censorship-a mundane, encompassing set of automatically repeated procedures that functioned much like any other state bureaucracy-seemed impossible to circumvent. While the press did not consider the censorship legitimate, they were never able to develop the resources to overcome censorship's burdensome routines.

O rapaz do metrô

Dividido em oito chacinas — ou capítulos — com uma infinidade de poemas, O rapaz do metrô retrata um jovem de 16 anos, aprendiz de manutenção dos trens, que tem a vida desestruturada por uma onda de violência no bairro onde mora. As vítimas são seus vizinhos e amigos, e um acaso do destino faz com que o jovem testemunhe — e documente — um desses assassinatos, a prova de uma vizinhança abandonada à própria sorte. Com o registro de um ato tão brutal gravado em sua câmera, o rapaz passa a temer por sua própria vida.

Poemas para jovens inquietos

Ainda bem que existe a poesia e a arte para dar vazão ao desassossego de jovens inquietos de todas as idades. E é pelos versos certeiros do celebrado escritor Sérgio Capparelli que enxergamos esta época digital em que vivemos – principalmente sob a ótica de adolescentes e jovens, os inquietos por natureza. Vivemos em um tempo que muda constantemente, que nos foge por entre os dedos e nos surpreende a cada instante. Às vezes recusamos esse tempo. Às vezes o abraçamos. Duplamente – porque também mudamos. Assim, os namoros são pelas redes sociais. A rebeldia ganha novas formas e expressões, e o mundo, ao alcance de um clique, se descortina a quem tiver curiosidade – e um bom acesso à internet.
