Diversidade e estabilidade em línguas românicas / Diversité et stabilité dans les langues romanes
A obra 'Diversidade e estabilidade em línguas românicas', organizada pelas coordenadoras do Projeto VariaR, oferece um panorama das nuances linguísticas presentes em expressões românicas ao redor do mundo. Os capítulos incluem questões de diversidade e estabilidade em variedades de espanhol, português (língua materna e não materna), gascão e francês, até a intercompreensão românica com foco no romeno. Esta obra é um convite à exploração das dinâmicas intrincadas que permeiam as línguas românicas.
Variação linguística, ensino e interfaces
A relação entre variação linguística e ensino constitui, sem dúvida, um dos aspectos mais relevantes para o contexto pedagógico na Educação Básica. Neste livro, essa relação é explorada em diferentes temáticas e perspectivas: o estabelecimento da norma-padrão; o tratamento dos materiais didáticos; uso e avaliação de fenômenos variáveis; relatos de experiência e propostas pedagógicas; contexto plurilíngue e ensino de línguas estrangeiras/adicionais. Leitura essencial a professores e pesquisadores da área.
Variação em Português e em Outras Línguas Românicas
Os capítulos reunidos nesta obra formam um conjunto diversificado e rico de colaborações para a comunidade internacional dos pesquisadores interessados pela descrição do português e de outras línguas românicas. Às importantes contribuições para a descrição de variedades nacionais do português e para a distinção de características próprias às diferentes variedades de português (português europeu, português brasileiro, português santomense, português moçambicano) acrescentam-se contribuições que visam a comparar o português com outras línguas românicas (espanhol, italiano e francês), em uma perspectiva de observação e de estudo da variação linguística enquanto diassistema. As diversas temáticas abordadas e as análises linguísticas propostas fundamentam-se e diferentes abordagens teóricas complementares: a Sociolinguística variacionista, a Geolingüística e a Dialectologia, o Funcionalismo, a Linguística funcional-cognitiva, a Gramática de Construções (diassistêmica) e a Linguística Textual.

Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
Mud Sweeter than Honey
"[An] incredibly moving collection of oral histories . . . important enough to be added to the history curriculum" Telegraph "A moving evocation of the 'everyday terror' systematically perpetrated over 41 years of Albanian communism . . . An illuminating if harrowing insight into life in a totalitarian state." Clarissa de Waal, author of ALBANIA: PORTRAIT OF A COUNTRY IN TRANSITION "Albania, enigmatic, mysterious Albania, was always the untold story of the Cold War, the 1989 revolutions and the fall of the Berlin Wall.

The Mosquito Bite Author
Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.
The Brothers
Introducing a major new voice in Brazilian letters. Set among a Lebanese immigrant community in the Brazilian port of Manaus, The Brothers is the story of identical twins, Yaqub and Omar, whose mutual jealousy is offset only by their love for their mother. But it is Omar who is the object of Zana's Jocasta-like passion, while her husband, Halim, feels her slipping away from him, as their beautiful daughter, RGnia, makes a tragic claim on her brothers' affection. Vivid, exotic, and lushly atmospheric, The Brothers is the story of a family's disintegration, of a changing city and the culture clash between the native-born inhabitants and a new immigrant group, and of the future the next generation will make from the ruins.
Once There Was a City Named Dilli
The history of Delhi has been told and retold many times. Often the intent is to use history as an ideological tool for staking a claim to the present of the city. In Intizar Husain’s retelling, it is the tale itself that becomes delectable. A popular recital that highlights the forgotten nuances of the story, Once There was a City Named Dilli, is a celebration of the people and culture that made the city unforgettable. Forts, walled cities, bazaars, diwan khanas, durbars, and the Yamuna itself come alive in this ode to a capital serenaded and ravaged by powerful kings and chieftains over time.
Children’s Literature in Translation
For many of us, our earliest and most meaningful experiences with literature occur through the medium of a translated children’s book. This volume focuses on the complex interplay that happens between text and context when works of children’s literature are translated: what contexts of production and reception account for how translated children’s books come to be made and read as they are? How are translated children’s books adapted to suit the context of a new culture? Spanning the disciplines of Children’s Literature Studies and Translation Studies, this book brings together established and emerging voices to provide an overview of the analytical, empirical and geographic richne...
