Senhoritas Primavera: Três Contos Femininos
"Senhoritas Primavera" é uma trilogia composta pelos contos: "Senhoritas Primavera", "Honra" e "Ela disse sim!". Nos contos temos um mergulho no universo de mulheres, com seus amores, suas realizações e seus tabus. Cada um dos três contos apresenta de forma poética e delicada a vida de mulheres de diversas idades, origens, condições sociais, ambições e valores. Além da temática de histórias vividas ou contadas por mulheres, os contos têm similaridade na estrutura de ciranda e no tom lírico. O conto que dá nome a antologia "Senhoritas Primaveras" conta a história de uma família com o pitoresco hábito de nomear todas as suas meninas de "Maria" seguido por um nome de flor, (Ma...

The author summarizes biological information, and discusses and illustrates patterns of geographical distribution.
Delirio—The Fantastic, the Demonic, and the Réel
Striking, inexplicable stories circulate among the people of Nuevo León in northern Mexico. Stories of conversos (converted Jews) who fled the Inquisition in Spain and became fabulously wealthy in Mexico. Stories of women and children buried in walls and under houses. Stories of an entire, secret city hidden under modern-day Monterrey. All these stories have no place or corroboration in the official histories of Nuevo León. In this pioneering ethnography, Marie Theresa Hernández explores how the folktales of Nuevo León encode aspects of Nuevolenese identity that have been lost, repressed, or fetishized in "legitimate" histories of the region. She focuses particularly on stories regarding three groups: the Sephardic Jews said to be the "original" settlers of the region, the "disappeared" indigenous population, and the supposed "barbaric" society that persists in modern Nuevo León. Hernández's explorations into these stories uncover the region's complicated history, as well as the problematic and often fascinating relationship between history and folklore, between officially accepted "facts" and "fictions" that many Nuevoleneses believe as truth.

The People of the River
In this history of the black peasants of Amazonia, Oscar de la Torre focuses on the experience of African-descended people navigating the transition from slavery to freedom. He draws on social and environmental history to connect them intimately to the natural landscape and to Indigenous peoples. Relying on this world as a repository for traditions, discourses, and strategies that they retrieved especially in moments of conflict, Afro-Brazilians fought for autonomous communities and developed a vibrant ethnic identity that supported their struggles over labor, land, and citizenship. Prior to abolition, enslaved and escaped blacks found in the tropical forest a source for tools, weapons, and ...
