Desde o circo itinerante, montado sob lonas e que passava de geração em geração, muitas mudanças ocorreram, com uma tensão positiva entre a tradição e a inovação. Este livro busca, por meio de ensaios e reflexões, contribuir para a valorização do gênero, bem como de suas formas de expressão contemporâneas. Assim, participam da obra acadêmicos, pesquisadores, pensadores, gestores, críticos e artistas do Brasil, Chile, Argentina e Uruguai, além de um autor convidado da França. São abordados questões dramatúrgicas, análises históricas e estéticas, a ressignificação da corporalidade e da técnica, processos de ensino, espaços e iniciativas de promoção cultural da arte circense, entre outros.

Este libro propone un agrupamiento de diversas entradas de diccionario inventadas (pero posibles) en torno a un mismo término: cuerpo. Ellas nos invitan a enfrentarnos con la esquiva pregunta ¿qué es el cuerpo? y nos permiten arrojarnos hacia el trabajo de pensar cómo se forma en particularidades concretas, pagando, inevitablemente, el precio de su evanescencia. En cada una de las entradas podemos encontrar definiciones del cuerpo propias de situaciones y circunstancias específicas en las que se producen, a la vez que emergen puntos de contacto entre distintos espacios sociales. Así, nos enfrentamos a la proliferación de la multiplicidad de significaciones que envuelven al cuerpo. El ...
José Maria Escobar (born ca. 1751) was adopted by José Miguel Antonio Ramírez, and was brought to live in Mier, Tamaulipas, Mexico when he was nine years old. Maria Antonia Gertrudis Chapa was the daughter of Maria Rita López de Jaen, who was the second wife of Escobar's adoptive father. In 1770, Escobar married Maria Antonia Gertrudis Chapa. He inherited a portion of land called Porción 76 from Ramírez, and later purchased the remainder of Porción 76 from his mother in law and step-mother, Maria Rita López de Jaen. The property was in Mier, which later became part of Starr County, Texas. Escobar ancestors came from Spain to Mexico, some being soldiers with Cortez at Vera Cruz in 1519. Members of the Escobar family lived in Texas and northern Mexico, along the Rio Grande River. They settled mainly at Escobares, Los Sáenz, La Rosita, Roma (Roma-Los Sáenz), and Rio Grande City. Others moved to California, New York, Ohio, Washington D.C., and elsewhere.

Class-tested and coherent, this textbook teaches classical and web information retrieval, including web search and the related areas of text classification and text clustering from basic concepts. It gives an up-to-date treatment of all aspects of the design and implementation of systems for gathering, indexing, and searching documents; methods for evaluating systems; and an introduction to the use of machine learning methods on text collections. All the important ideas are explained using examples and figures, making it perfect for introductory courses in information retrieval for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in computer science. Based on feedback from extensive classroom experience, the book has been carefully structured in order to make teaching more natural and effective. Slides and additional exercises (with solutions for lecturers) are also available through the book's supporting website to help course instructors prepare their lectures.
