A PESQUISA E A INICIAÇÃO CIENTÍFICA NO SUL DO MARANHÃO
Felix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas Feliz de quem pode conhecer a causa das coisas (Virgílio: Georgicas, 2,490) Desde o início dos tempos, nas narrativas babilônicas da criação do mundo, no livro bíblico Gênesis, os seres humanos demonstram sua vocação natural para investigar as coisas do mundo: sobre os elementos físicos, como a água e a terra, e sobre os seres vivos, como as árvores e os animais. A história mítica de nossa criação contempla o espírito transcendentemente humano de denominar e dominar as coisas via conhecimento de mundo natural. Essa necessidade prima de conhecer, de descobrir as coisas que cercam nosso meio ambiente físico e social tem sido fundante p...
Pedro and Marques Take Stock
"[A] vibrant and punchy novel . . . Through Falero’s lovable characters, readers will meditate on violence and respectability within the death-trap of runaway capitalism. Head-on against the grim indignities of an unequal world, Falero’s poetic novel embraces humor and empathy." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) A modern picaresque novel and vivid satire on social mobility where the lives of two Brazilian supermarket stock clerks are upturned after their small-time marijuana business takes off. In the favelas of Porto Alegre, Brazil, marijuana is hard to come by. Supermarket stock clerks Pedro and Marques spend their days unloading trucks, restocking shelves, and dreaming of a better li...

De bala em prosa
O que dizer diante do permanente genocídio negro cometido pelo Estado brasileiro? Como descrevê-lo? De que maneira expressar a justa revolta pelo rastro de sangue que os projéteis oficiais deixam nas periferias das grandes cidades? De bala em prosa reúne textos de autores e autoras negras. São pessoas diretamente impactadas pela escalada da violência fardada no país. A gota d'água que os levou a escrever — mais uma dentre tantas que historicamente já transbordaram qualquer nível mínimo de civilidade — foi a morte de um músico e um catador de materiais recicláveis no Rio de Janeiro em abril de 2019. Negros, ambos foram assassinados pelo Exército, que disparou "por engano" o ...

Travellers, Gypsies, Roma
This volume hopes to act as a catalyst for some new and exciting areas of enquiry in the more “liminal” interstices of Irish Studies, Traveller Studies, Romani Studies and Diaspora and Migration Studies. These disciplines are all relatively new areas of enquiry in modern Ireland, a country whose society has witnessed very rapid and wide-ranging cultural and demographic change within the short space of a decade. The issue of multiculturalism is not one which is particularly new to Irish society as a number of contributors to this volume point out. What is new however is an increased acknowledgement of diversity and multiculturalism in Ireland and Europe as a whole. Such an acknowledgement...
Queer Theory and Social Change
Queer Theory and Social Change argues that there is a crisis within Queer theory over whether or not its theories can actually deliver change. Max Kirsch presents a challenging alternative to the current fascination with post-modern analyses of identity, culture, and difference. It emphasizes the need for a discussion of the importance of communities and the role of globalization on queer movements.
Alex Stoddard: Insex
"Stoddard has an impressive vision for composition ... each one seemingly marries fear and darkness with the delicacy of purity and the organic." -Juxtapoz This debut monograph from the Los Angeles-based photographer Alex Stoddard explores the parallels between metamorphosis in the natural world and human coming-of-age. Through staged, highly stylized images, Stoddard invites viewers into his magical, colorfully dark world of budding sexuality and crawling insects. Each detailed scene features a youthful subject--often Stoddard himself--in a state of change or paired with a many-legged counterpart. The previously unreleased series of 70 images paints a surreal picture of adolescence and youn...
Amora
From an emerging talent comes an exquisite collection of stories exploring the complexity of love between women, each a delicate piece in a mosaic transcending the boundaries of literary romance. Amora dares explore the way women love each other--the atrophy and healing of the female spirit in response to sexual desire and identity. These thirty-three short stories and poems, crafted with a deliberate delicacy, each capture the candid, private moments of women in love. Together, these stories and the women who inhabit them reveal an illuminating portrait of the sacred female romance, with all its nuances, complexities, burdens, and triumphs revealed. Violence, sickness, chaos, tenderness, be...
The Soft Edge
What Does it Take to Get Ahead Now—And Stay There? High performance has always required shrewd strategy and superb execution. These factors remain critical, especially given today’s unprecedented business climate. But Rich Karlgaard—Forbes publisher, entrepreneur, investor, and board director—takes a surprising turn and argues that there is now a third element that’s required for competitive advantage. It fosters innovation, it accelerates strategy and execution, and it cannot be copied or bought. It is found in a perhaps surprising place—your company’s values. Karlgaard examined a variety of enduring companies and found that they have one thing in common; all have leveraged th...
