brazilian book chamber The Brazilian Book Chamber (Câmara Brasileira do Livro - CBL) brings together editors, booksellers, distributors and door-to-door sales companies since 1946. With more than 650 members, the entity’s main goal is creating a better country through the promotion of books and reading. Brazil has for the second time been named (the first time was in 1994) as the Guest of Honor at the Frankfurt Book Fair, the largest and most important event of its kind in the world. Brazilian participation in the event is organized by the Ministries of Culture and Foreign Relations, the National Library Foundation (Fundação Biblioteca Nacional – FBN), the National Arts Foundation (Fundação Nacional de Artes - Funarte) and the Brazilian Book Chamber (commonly known as CBL). Brazil’s participation in Frankfurt will include more than 160 publishers who will present their catalogs. More than 70 Brazilian authors will participate, with a rich program of lectures and discussions on the themes of their works in addition to readings. Plus, a vast cultural and gastronomic schedule will showcase the diversity of our country and the Brazilian way of life. Brazil’s recognition in Frankfurt is of immense importance for the country’s editorial production, which will be the focus of the worldwide market. There are numerous opportunities for business growth and wide exposure in the international media.

The Brazilian Publishers project, a partnership between the CBL and the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency (Agência Brasileira de Promoção de Exportações e Investimentos – Apex-Brasil), plays an important role in this effort. It works so that exporting of books and sales of foreign language rights gradually leads to a strengthening of the publishing market. Another important showcase for Brazilian editorial production is the São Paulo International Book Biennial. The CBL promotes this event, which was attended by more than 750,000 people during its last edition, in 2012. The 23rd São Paulo International Book Biennial will take

place August 21-31, 2014. The CBL also offers the Book School program (Escola do Livro), which provides continuing education for publishing professionals seeking to improve their knowledge. A partnership project between CBL and the Brazilian Publisher’s Union (Sindicato Nacional de Editores de Livros – SNEL) annually provides a complete survey of the market: the Brazilian Publishing Industry Production and Sales Study, which is conducted by the Economic Research Foundation Institute (Fundação Instituto de Pesquisas Econômicas – FIPE), an institution affiliated with the University of São Paulo. As it is concerned with all areas of Brazilian editorial production, the CBL holds the CBL International Digital Book Conference. The fourth edition took place in June 2013. The organization also promotes the Jabuti Award, which has been recognized as the leading and most respected award in the Brazilian publishing business for 55 years. The award is given to publishers, writers, illustrators, translators, cover artists and designers throughout Brazil. Acclaimed names such as Ana Maria Machado, Carlos Drummond de Andrade, Chico Buarque de Hollanda, Clarice Lispector, Ferreira Gullar, Jorge Amado, Lygia FagundesTelles, Raquel de Queiroz and Ziraldo are among those who have been honored. The CBL and its members demonstrate, through the various initiatives mentioned here, the interest of the Brazilian publishing market in internationalizing its literary production. We are a country that is a purchaser of foreign editorial rights, and we are ready to promote our editorial rights throughout the world. Thank you for visiting us and we hope you enjoy our books! Karine Pansa President of the CBL

Brazil, the country of diversity and “bibliodiversity”

The tribute to Brazil at this Frankfurt Book Fair is an opportunity to delve into the rich cultural universe of the country. So, anyone who wants to learn about the best in Brazilian editorial production should take a look not only at books published by “major” market players. In Brazil there are numerous publishers that deserve attention due to the quality and robustness of their catalogs, built on bases of knowledge that the industry’s major players cannot emulate. Brazil boasts the largest association of independent publishers in the world, LIBRE – the Brazilian League of Editors (Liga Brasileira de Editores). It is composed of 117 companies that exchange information and knowledge daily through their own network, doing business in a collaborative manner. Some of the country’s best publishing imprints can be found among these publishers. In some fields, only they publish the best of literature and essays in the country, for both adults and children. There are publishers whose titles are references throughout the country, in fields like education, popular culture, Afro-Brazilian culture, Brazilian history, sociology, Marxism, literature, literary criticism, sociology, etc.. As the president of this association, I cannot just mention one without giving due credit to the rest. But I invite the reader to to check out Brazilian independent production in particular. I am sure a closer look at these companies will reveal one of the finest features of current Brazilian society: its cultural, political, religious, literary, and intellectual diversity.

In a small Polish town, there was an old teacher who helped people by telling stories. He was always able to find the right story for the right person at the right time. One day, a student asked him how he did it and he replied by telling another story: there was a young boy who loved archery. One day, he came across more than 100 targets, each with an arrow right in the center. Who would be capable of such a feat? A 10 year old boy solved the mystery: “First I shot the arrows and then paint the targets around it”. So, the old master explained to his students that he did just as the boy: he listened to people’s problems and then painted a story around their difficulties.

In the 16th century, a 15-year-old boy finds himself abandoned after the death of his mother, who was persecuted on false charges of witchcraft. He is fated to join the Portuguese overseas fleet, setting off on a risky voyage to the New World. His ship is wrecked, however, and the boy faces months of solitary survival in the unknown and exotic lands of Brazil in its early historical period. Encountering settlers, he witnesses the curious relationship between catechized natives and the Portuguese. Amidst passions, encounters, dangers and discoveries, the youngster is exposed to the conflict between established truths and the unrest of a vibrant and questioning life.

At the age of 11, Sérgio must leave behind his toys, the comfort of his home and his caring parents to enter a new phase: boarding school. He is enrolled in the prestigious Athenaeum – commanded by an also illustrious director: Aristarco. At first dazzled by the aura of excellence that hovers over the school, Sergio finds himself alone in a completely foreign world. Behind an acclaimed modern education that attracts the children of the elite to the great school of its time, we discover a tyrannical system, driven by the greedy excesses of the director. Keeping the original text of Raul Pompeia, Marcello Quintanilha creates a masterpiece in comic book form.

The animals of the Brazilian fauna are the protagonists of this delicate masterpiece by José Paulo Paes and Rubens Matuck. It consists of eight poems accompanied by beautiful watercolors, each one dedicated to a different creature: the ant, the macaw, the sloth, the alligator, the hummingbird, the anteater and the agouti. Through short and amusing verses, the book stimulates children’s sensibility to the expressiveness of language.

The cumulative tale, whose origin disappears during European Low Middle Ages, also tends to have a formative dimension, despite its popular and entertaining function.

Pedrita (Stony) collects all kinds of stones and loves them as much as she loves her pets. This book talks about her relationship with her stones, her friends, her boyfriend and her annoying brother until she finds a charmed stone. Between the lines of a simple and funny story, the text enchants people of all ages with its rhythm and mastery of the language. The book is full of turnarounds, traps and unexpected moments, narrated throughout in a fast and sharp language.

Everybody has a little bit of an artist inside themselves. This boy has more than a bit. He just cannot stand still. Moved by creative winds, his mind is constantly in the middle of a dizzying whirlpool. By being like that, he has given life to a number of apparently useless things. Will this continue once he grows up? Guto’s images reaffirm art as an unlimited enigma because it often appears do lack purpose, and it responds to the current flow of utilitarian and comforting messages with uncertainty, indeterminacy and, above all, with humor that corrodes everything.

Arthur grows older with each book. And if the book is the birthday party, the reader is the guest. In each book-party the reader gets to know a bit more about Arthur’s story and his insights in different stages of life.

Francisco Moura Campos’ haiku poetry invites us for a journey of concise simplicity of the transience of life. Using objective description of a physical sensation, the author awakens memories and feelings. Lúcia Hiratsuka wraps the work with delicate illustrations that impress the senses and reveal the harmony of the entire work. Seize the journey.

Aimed at a teenage audience, this book provides valuable information on Financial Education to those who are about to enter the labor market. Based on issues that make young people lose their sleep, such as career choices and family relations, the writer Reinaldo Domingos shows that it is important to establish a healthy relationship with one’s finances early on. Going beyond the individual level, it encourages young people to reflect, addressing important issues, such as tax load, government budgets, technological entrepreneurship, aware consumption and even the great human ideals, such as social and racial equality.

‘The Boy and the Money’ collection is comprised by three books that talk about money in a playful and poetical manner, addressing reflections – although in a simple manner – about what is engulfed by it. In order to develop financial education for children, already in early childhood, the books present some elements that symbolize the universe of money: currencies, piggy banks and others. The books are The Boy and the Money; The Boy, the Money and the Three Piggy Banks; and The Boy, the Money and the Antcicada.

With the slogan “More than books, dreams!”, DSOP Publisher summarizes its core reason and the focus of its activities in the publishing market. After all, as Shakespeare said: “We are such stuff as dreams are made on”. The children’s literature catalogue, primarily, privileges magnificent titles that drive on children the taste for reading and for fantasy, so essential for the harmonious arrangement of their psychical and social lives. The publisher’s catalogue includes, among its many other works, the first collection of financial education for elementary school in the country, with books that encompass all the educational cycles, already adopted by hundreds of private and public schools in Brazil, which educational syllabus includes this specific subject matter.

With a gentle and funny language, ‘The Boy of Money’ collection is composed by five books that aim at nurturing small readers’ dreams, dividing them into material and non-material. Each volume of this collection is based on a distinct line that follows, respectively, the topics: Family (The Boy of Money – Family Dreams), Diversity (The Boy of Money – Attending School), Entrepreneurship (The Boy of Money – Action Among Friends), Sustainability (The Boy of Money – In a Sustainable World) and Autonomy/ Citizenship (The Boy of Money – Little Citizen).

The ‘Dream to be Collection’ is comprised by books that refer to dreams and that provide children a first contact with some universal human issues such as the search for identity, the achievement of citizenship, the right to education and to the very condition of being able to dream. The works present four female characters seeking to make their dreams come true. Diana lives on the streets and wants to attend school (Diana, Luana, Luanda); Alice wants to learn how to write her name (Alice’s Secret Dream); Clariana wants to be noticed (Clariana, the Invisible Girl); and Nina is fighting to defeat her fear of the dark (Nina and the Night Lamp).

Her mom pretends to yield to her. When the time to go to bed comes, Vivi demands the most impossible thing of all. Once again Vivi’s mom says okay. With lovely illustrations, this book is a permanent game of magical fun trades between mother and daughter.

Like all children, young fairies have a long way to learn. Learn what is always new, which at times may be hard and even dangerous. In Filhote de Fada (The Fairy’s Kid), one learns how to fly, which is one of fairies’ essential features. Young readers will gradually discover what is in store for ‘the little fairy’ in her first attempts to fly. Short sentences in a concise text (sometimes with rhyme) and lots of illustrations make this book especially suitable not only for children who are learning to read, but also for children who are already involved in the marvelous adventure of reading. The dialogs are rich, light and fun, quite adequate to spark kids’ interest and curiosity.

Little children are smarter than you think. No wonder doting moms and dads say that about their offspring all the time. The truth is, they’re quite right: kids are really very smart. This book shows how children act, react and interact. Young kids will certainly see themselves in every little dialogue. Older kids will find them funny and will remember the time when they were just like that. Teenagers will miss the simple days of their childhood – when they were naturally clever. What about grown-ups then? Oh, those will have a lot of fun, too. So this is a book to be enjoyed and savored by readers of all ages.

An anthology of sixty minimalist poems that stir up the reader´s imagination, describing varied types of animals – both big and small - in an unusual way. Alternatively employing rich rhymes and blank verses, the poems emphasize the sonority and the rhythm of written language, interlacing harmoniously with the images. The illustrations, result of a mixing of clippings, photographs and digital art, create for each poem a different dimension, enabling another experience for the reader.

With her lines, drawings, movement and colors, Angela-Lago creates images that both cover and unveil surprising secrets in the narrative, inviting the reader to explore their details. The aesthetic and the dimensional resources used to depict the characters, showing their emotions, trickeries, rivalries and humor are very appealing to the taste of the young readers.

In Street Scene, the art of painting is used to describe, brush by brush and page by page, the daily life of a child working in the streets. The images speak for themselves, awakening the reader´s awareness – rich in details, with vibrant colors, movement and surprising angles, they stir up the imagination and allow for a creative interpretation. Portrayed in an expressionist way, the story speaks to the heart without the need of words, making this graphic production a work available and open to the whole global community, a book to be explored with no hedges.

Using illustrations created with digital image processing software, Angela-Lago was able to craft a dialogue between the classic and the contemporary. These images, relating to the drawings typical of the medieval era, incorporate a new hue, a pinch of enigma to the folkloric narrative. The richness brought by the unusual elements of this work allows for a creative reading of the illustrations, which, interweaved with the transitoriness of the text, contextualize and give depth to the characters as the narrative unfolds. A beautiful book, which was also awarded a prize for its exceptional editorial project.

Between Two Worlds Author: Angela Pappiani Ilustrator: Crianças da tribo Xavante

The Alienist in Cordel Poetry Adapted: Rouxinol do Rinaré Illustrator: Erivaldo

88 Pages ISBN: 978-85-65746-17-5 Rights available

48 Pages ISBN: 978-85-65746-16-8 Rights available

Between Two Worlds is a book that deals with the contact between the European culture and the Xavante people of Mato Grosso, located in the central region of Brazil. The author’s writings translate into simple terms the Indians’ worldviews, lifestyle, beliefs and their social relationships within their own community. At the center of the story are the experiences of a boy inserted into a white cosmopolitan society, returning to his surroundings to fulfil the role of a true cultural intermediary. Illustrated with motifs, patterns and drawings produced by Xavante children, the book also highlights how they relate to nature and history.

The Alienist is one of the most famous works by Machado de Assis. Published in 1882, it tells the story of Simon Bacamarte, a doctor obsessed with identifying the criteria that separate normalcy from madness. Set in the town of Itaguaí in Rio de Janeiro, in the hospital for the “alienated”, run by Simon Bacamarte, all those who do not fit within the range of normalcy arbitrarily established by him are hospitalized. Through a sarcastic sense of humor, Machado de Assis presents a biting critique of late 19th century scientism, which often implanted concepts in the social sciences and human psychology that were not yet well-rooted within their original scientific disciplines.

Pitá and Moroti’s Love Story Author: Marco Haurélio Ilustrator: Verushcka Guerra

The legend of the lily pad has been told for generations by the Guarani people, who lived on the banks of the Paraná River. The story of the warrior Pitá and his beloved Moroti is slightly different from the Amazonian legend (in which the lily pad is born from the drowning of an Indian woman in love with the moon who, according to indigenous beliefs, is a warrior named Jaci). In the cordel version told by Marco Haurélio and illustrated by Veruschka Guerra, Pitá is a famous warrior who throws himself into the Paraná River upon Moroti’s challenge. In its depths he becomes enslaved by a horrible sorceress. Repentant, Moroti goes in search of him.

The Emperor’s New Clothes is one of the best known tales from the Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875), who is rightly considered the Father of Children’s Literature. First published in 1837, this story is a prime example of the critique of hypocrisy being highlighted through humor. The plot tells of an emperor whose vanity is so extreme that he is taken for a fool, and ends up being cheated by two swindlers. In exchange for riches, the swindlers guarantee to make the emperor the most beautiful robe, warning him however, that it will be invisible to the simpleminded.

Black Chant Auhtor: Solano Trindade

64 Pages ISBN: 978-85-65746-09-0 Rights available

Solano Trindade is one of the most important Brazilian poets of the 20th century. Founder of the Brazilian Folkloric Theater, he has operated in a broad spectrum of culture, from poetry to the fine arts, to a stint in theater and manifestations of popular traditions. Black Chant collects poems that highlight themes relative to African descent and the individual in eternal confrontation with the social pressures resulting from discrimination. Thus, the verses to the Orishas, to the woman he loves, to ritualistic dance and to work take on characteristics of a rallying cry of resistance and freedom.

In an endangered forest lived an old vegetarian wolf. Sad and lonely, he was suffering until the moment he got face-to-face with a hunter.

In this story of life and death, extreme emotions are captured by shades of black and white. Who is the man and who is the wolf? Does it make any sense to ask this question?

The poems in this book, written by one of the greatest poets in Portuguese language, recreate the distressed and at the same time hopeful days at the end of the 1780s, when a group of Brazilian intellectuals tried to free their country from Portuguese domination, causing a great disaster on their own lives. Cecilia Meireles used the Iberian technique of popular romances and was very attentive to the Minas Conspiracy’s documents, letters, testaments, as well as paintings, songs, and Aleijadinho’s statues of prophets, making this a classic work of Brazilian literature, about one of the most important moments in Brazilian history.

Luis da Camara Cascudo was one of the greatest experts in the popular roots of Brazilian culture. In this book, the most important in his extensive work, he reveals the relationship between folklore and society, culture and development of the multiple Brazilian identities. Cascudo examines in details the festivities, food, dances, legends, tales and other cultural references of the people he loved and researched about so much. This great folklorist gives us a precious inventory of these creations by discoursing skillfully, in a delightful language, about the origins and variations found throughout the Brazilian territory.

Lullabies, songs, rhymes, tongue twisters and folklore divinations are expression forms very close to the children’s world and have suggestive, creative and ludic aesthetic effects. In the book When it’s this it’s not that, Cecilia Meireles uses these resources, playing with words, exploring the sonority, rhythm, rhymes, repetitions and musicality. The Author also brings back the children’s universe, permeated by unpredictable questions, monologues, surprising situations, uncommon comparisons, presence of fantasy and imagination. This book holds a prominent place in Brazilian juvenile literature.

The sociologist Gilberto Freyre is the author of Casa-grande & senzala, published in 1933, always considered an indispensable book to understand the formation of Brazilian society.

Here, we can enjoy Freyre’s poetical attempts and exuberant writing style, already well known by means of his essays about Brazil. In this book, we can pinpoint the poems “Bahia de Todos os Santos e de quase todos os pecados” and “O outro Brasil que vem aí”.

Rapunzel born in Bahia – a beautiful black girl that came into the world with long and non-stop growing hair.

There, she would sing only for him. But one day her songs echoed where Prince Dakarai was passing. Her face overfilled the Prince’s heart with love. As the story shows, the Brazilian Prince will plan a way to rescue the love of his life.

The World of the Coloured People tells the story of two boys that live a childhood full of friendship and fun. Together since they were born, they are so close that they were seen as brothers.

After a process of self-recognition and understanding though they could again live according to that what really matters. Overcoming the differences between them, the two boys were together again, just as they always had before. This also showed the way to change our whole society.

Books are made up of words and pictures. And words are made up of letters. The pictures in this book are also made up of letters, which interact with pictures and turn themselves into fascinating illustrations. The poems don’t save on nonsense and humor, generating double meanings that prompt readers to use their intelligence and make them create hypotheses and recreate what is implicit between the lines.

A boy lets his hair grow, and grow, and grow, without ever having it cut. And so his brow, his eyes, his mouth, his head, and then his entire body come to disappear, so much so that no one is able to locate him at school – and so much so that his own father can’t remember the boy’s face anymore. This is a moving, fantastic story by award-winning author Fabrício Carpinejar on the differences between introversion and shyness in childhood.

Zizinho lives in a community where everyone descends from quilombolas, Afro-Brazilian slaves who escaped from plantations centuries ago. He is inquisitive and doesn’t understand why the place where he lives receives so many visitors from other Brazilian states, and even other countries. Zizinho is a tireless asker of questions about the world around him. Looking for answers, he goes to the house of a female teacher that understands the boy’s curiosity. She gives him a challenge: helping her to retrieve their community’s traditions, which are so admired by outsiders and which have been quite forgotten by locals. Zizinho embraces the cause without hesitation, becoming one of the leaders of the community.

Oshun Author and Illustrator: Edsoleda Santos.

Once upon a time there was a smart little biracial kid born in the Pelourinho district of Salvador, Bahia. After playing and fighting in the street, he became the greatest of all Capoeira Angola masters in Bahia. The name of this boy became a legend around the world, but the story of Mestre Pastinha is real and is recounted blow-byblow in this book. In 2012, this book was a finalist in the children’s category for the Jabuti Prize, one of the most important literary awards in Brazil.

Feminine and temperamental, Oshun reigns supreme in Bahia’s universe. This legend, collected and published by the ethnologist Pierre Verger, known for his in-depth knowledge of the African diaspora in the Americas, is still alive in Africa, in the annual festivals celebrating the pact between King Laro and the fertile waters of the Oshun River.

“What is a depression? A contemporary social symptom, so claims the most influential psychoanalyst from Brazil. Maria Rita Kehl presents an in-depth analysis of depressions, a topic that is often discussed but little understood. Her analysis – that includes among other topics the symbolic dimension of this social symptom, from Classical Antiquity to Freud – is enriched by cases that come from her experience as a therapist. Straightforward and profound at the same time, will be of interest to those involved with psychoanalysis as well as anyone who wants to understand how social mechanisms influence the human subjectivity. 2010 Book of the Year in Brazil (Prêmio Jabuti).”

Latinoamericana is the ultimate reference work on Latin America and the Caribbean, offering an insider’s view on political, social, economic, environmental, artistical and cultural processes, with contributions by over 100 authors from 20 countries. The encyclopedia contains thematic essays, photos, maps and tables on the countries and territories that are part of the continent, as well as biographies of its leading personalities and entries on educational, ethnic, mediatic, scientific, technological and sporting phenomena that give it its own identity.

Critique of the Dualistic Reason, originally published in 1972, has changed people’s understanding about Brazilian economy. Written by Francisco de Oliveira, one of the most important sociologists in Brazil, the essay was updated in 2003 with The Platypus, a reference to the strange mammal that is perhaps the best representation of today’s Brazil: a bizarre combination of highly developed industries and an enormous financial sector, but nonetheless with feet of clay. Along with Oliveira’s essays, Roberto Schwarz’s preface represents a true invitation to see the world beyond the strict pragmatism of modern times.

“Simply the most important work on Marxist political thinking in the last decades!” – Slavoj Žižek In a rich dialogue with Marx and the theoretical tradition on State, philosopher Alysson Leandro Mascaro claims that a deeper understanding of the State and politics, required by the urgency of the current situation, is only possible through an analysis of their structural, historical, dynamical and contradictory position in the whole context of social reproduction. With the perspective of totality, Mascaro creates the basis for an emancipatory project in which the political form can only be understood as a derivation of the commodity form, established in capitalism.

The Mongrel Complex In Brazil’s History The historical reasons of the Brazilian self-belittling tradition Author: Aurélio Schommer

288 Pages - ISBN: 978-85-61878-15-3 Rights available

Under The Deeply Grey Sky Author: Tom Correia

What is Brazil? What is it to be Brazilian? This book presents the most complete study ever conducted on the self-belittling tradition of Brazil’s history: from the clash with the Indians, to the overestimation of European immigrants, as well as the myth of exacerbated sexuality. Written in literary language, the book destroys false myths such as Tiradentes and shows, amongst other aspects of Brazil’s history, the origin of such disaffection by its innates.

In journalist César Elieser’s opinion, the characters of Tom Correia are subject to the worst of fates. They are not destined for good lives, but instead doomed to failure with no chance of redemption. They are humiliated and offended by a society that only has eyes for success, and excludes most individuals from the processes of production and consumption, leaving them only the crumbs of life. For the past 15 years Tom Correia has been writing tales in a concise and firm style. He is a master of his own domain.

He is capable of philosophical insights. But, for him, unfortunately, the problem is not his clogged ears, but an innate and literary wisdom that hinders the eagerness of communication.

82: the magical game is a collection of 15 short stories relating to the 1982 World Cup and a particular match, Brazil’s 3-2 defeat to Italy. The 1982 World Cup was the last one in which Brazil truly captured the public’s imagination, with several of the best players Brazil has ever produced peaking at the same time. Yet they did not win a thing, not a single international trophy of any relevance. In fifteen short stories, fifteen Brazilian authors present their visions of that fateful day, our Sarriaço, comparable to the 1950 World Cup final defeat, the Maracanaço. The range of memories and consequences is reflected here, in literary terms, in all their richness and colors.

In the late sixties, Rivoli, who is from Brazil, and Tortoni, from Argentina, meet and become friends on a trip to Patagonia. Years later, their paths cross again in one of the most turbulent moments of Latin America’s political history. Francesco, Tortoni’s son, needs to leave Argentina to escape from the military dictatorship, and Rivoli’s family helps him. In his first novel, the journalist and musician Cadão Volpato constructs a captivating story about youth, memory and friendship.

From the award-winning author of The maker of elders, published in French and Spanish, The View from Rio creates a sophisticated narrative, fragmented in three different moments in time. The book chronicles the friendship of Marco Aurélio and Virgílio, from their childhood to maturity, in Rio de Janeiro. The imposing building Estrela de Ipanema, a milestone of modernist architecture in the city, is the setting for this story and points to the contradictions of the city, one of the themes that comes through in the narrative along with the drama experienced by the characters.

PhD film critic Ismail Xavier analyzes eight Brazilian movies produced between 1967 and 1970, using the concept of “allegory” to discuss fundamental issues of the late sixties in Brazil, such as underdevelopment, social types, class struggle, the dictatorship, and the way such feature films offered reflections on the theme of national identity. The analysis is based on the works of important names of Brazilian cinema, such as Glauber Rocha, Joaquim Pedro de Andrade, Rogério Sganzerla and Júlio Bressane, among others.

In the series Among Hills, Claudia Jaguaribe uses photographs to explore the tension between human beings, the urban space and nature. The artist shows a peculiar perspective of Rio de Janeiro. Compiling only pieces of pictures that are in focus, the artist creates images that take away any sense of depth, generating estrangement in the viewer. With her manipulation of images, Jaguaribe also builds spaces that could exist, but do not. There is a fine line between verisimilitude and improbability, where the artist shows how man interferes in his environment. The book assembles all the works from the series and includes three essays especially written for this edition.

In the short stories book “The sky is mine” some of the stories deal with daily situations and in some others, the author creates an oneiric world of great delicacy. The characters want to be aside from the normality of a society that asks for participation and receptivity. They are people who beg for a time free from obligations, for the sake of keeping their individualities and differences. Everybody fights, without apparent weapons, for the possibility of keeping an individual and unique soul. Many stories show people who had faced some situation either of loss or privation. Nevertheless, there are overturns where the strength of mind of the human spirit becomes the fuel to the emergence of the texts.

One Thing at a Time is a network of stories and characters that go from dream to laughter, from anguish to the unlikely. The characters live by their routines, events, kinships and friendship. Each character follows the mantra one thing at a time, as a renewing sense for the frailty of life. This movement- involving balance, dreams, promises, anguish - is fragile: it does not sustain itself as it is. The frailty perpasses life and appears beside the incommunicability and the difficulty of reaching the others easily. All of this is moved by the orientation of one thing at a time, which makes the past unpredictable. Told in low voice, the stories of One Thing at a Time ask for a close and deep-felt reading.

We live in an “obesogenic” society, in which several external factors become endocrine disruptors, causing diseases, including obesity. Why is it so hard to lose weight after we get fat? This is one of the aspects addressed in this book. In a simple and comprehensive way, the author touches on controversial and neuralgic points, in order to show that some foods regarded as essential to our nourishment may be “inflaming” us when eaten frequently and daily. The author talks also about subclinical malnutrition, which may be responsible for several diseases, including the difficulty to lose weight. Those who long for global health, that is, physical, emotional and spiritual, simply cannot miss this book.

Henrique de Lima Vaz is one of the most important Brazilian philosophers of the twentieth century. This book introduces the doctoral thesis presented to the Philosophy College of the Pontifical Gregorian University of Rome under the guidance of Fr. Réné Arnou, SJ, defended on January 29, 1953. According to what Father Vaz attests in his Bio-Bibliography, this “reading exercise”, opposing the thesis of the great dominican Hellenist André-Jean Festugière (1898-1982), in the classic work of 1936, Contemplation and Contemplative Life according to Plato, aimed to emphasize the intellectualist character of Platonic contemplation.

What if time were an ally of human beings in their journey? What if the golden age were now? What if the future had a history? Vieira warrants: the knowledge of the future is given to us. Probably in a baffling way, because it is the reading of the relationship with God and with his Word that is at stake. A future to be remembered: incongruity or an opportunity for the twenty-first century Christian? Letting oneself be pulled off a deceptive vision of the present in order to give it theological density is what this seventeenth century man proposed.

In the ecological paradigm perspective, the systemic presuppositions with which the human being integrates in the vital processes and cycles enrich the interpretation of reality. The reading of the space as territory emphasizes the human participation in the meaning of material forms, pointing out the social dimension of the geographic environment. In the light of Creation, according to the integrated and relational view of Christian Faith, the human being is also nature. These three ways of facing reality, placed in dialogue, show the importance of interdisciplinary work to develop a framework for socioenvironmental ethics in which different fields of knowledge are encouraged to seek ways of cooperation in order to understand and plan transforming actions.

Established storytellers, Maurício Dias and Walter Riedweg find their narratives in the exchange of experiences. In the telling of events generated by encounters with the Other, a story is woven in each written piece. Revealing and condensing narrative possibilities through exercises that interpret and mediate the world, the duo invents points of view for communicable experiences. They introduce marginalized groups through video installations and collaboratively develop projects that address subjectivity and stimulate us to reflect on the mechanisms of exclusion present in our cultural framework.

For a While Now Author: Maria Christina Monteiro de Castro

280 Pages ISBN: 978-85-61022-72-3 Rights available

From an observation of the reevaluation of the Real in Contemporary Art, the author restricts herself to an area of figurative painting that she defines as Architectural Realism. Zalinda Cartaxo develops her analysis comparing the works of two painters —the Brazilian Adriana Varejão, and the Portuguese José Lourenço. Adriana Varejão, in her series Saunas e Banhos (Saunas and Baths), presents a style of painting that privileges interior and intimate spaces. Antagonically, José Lourenço shows the façades that emphasize exteriority, in the collective. They both resort to using the artifice of the vanishing point perspective as a strategy to affirm the subject in the world.

Belo Horizonte, mid 20th century. Traditional Catholic middleclass. A time of large families with children, relatives, and friends gathered around. A time of perfumed white bed sheets, kept in locked drawers. This is Maria Christina Monteiro de Castro’s Proustian journey, her first book, mixing fiction and reality. It’s a late debut novel from a 70-year-old woman, who, in a style loaded with powerful phrasing, reveals a profounder Brazil located between utopia and repression, a revolution of customs and family traditions. Over a period of more than thirty years, this novel covers disturbances, ruptures and unimaginably painful losses.

Fiction and non fiction

In its five years of existence, Apicuri has published both fiction and non-fiction, and has brought to light reflections, essays and dissertations by Brazilian authors and researchers in the field of Humanities, Social Sciences, Arts and International Relations. This initiative amplifies the exchange between academy and the larger public in these areas, while proportioning access to diversified materials for readers to debate and contemplate. Additionally, Apicuri seeks to offer its readers high quality books, by young and renowned authors, in its fiction imprint.

There are those who speak of books without ever having read them; those who speak of trips without ever having made them. The lie nourishes human relations, and it is not different for the protagonist of this intriguing debut novel: Annette is a stubborn fugitive. She travels to escape herself — without ever leaving her desk at a travel agency. New York, Paris, Rome, no matter where. She invents and convinces that she has visited countless places, plausible and imaginable, providing operational and touristic detail for her clients to rest assured. A nomad of the imagination, she will see her façade crumble with the arrival of an unexpected client who wishes to go to Japan

Crude flesh Author: Rodrigo Novaes de Almeida Illustrator: Julia Debasse

100 Pages ISBN: 978-85-61022-76-1 Rights available

When sexual drive sidesteps the simplicity of contemplation and by force alone is driven to cruise certain labyrinths, what results is a collection of short stories by Rodrigo Novaes de Almeida. In decisive, and often direct, visceral and acidic narratives, as if his intention was to blindside the unwariest readers, this new generation storyteller leaves no room for reverie or cheap illusions. His characters know as little of their imprecise trajectories as any self-respecting mortal. On this journey, we are merely guests, invited to put in check our empty convictions and shake up any purportedly moralistic framework we might hold.

Pages: 208 ISBN: 978-85-62648-25-0

Pages: 48 ISBN: 978-85-62648-27-4

Maximiano Campos demonstrates the ability to create memorable characters and situations in this book. According to the writer Ariano Suassuna, the character Major Façanha has come to stay in the Brazilian literature. Comic and poetic, grotesque and epic at the same time, we feel admiration and compassion for him and he seems to correspond to subterraneous impulse, buried in the deepest layers of the Brazilian collective blood. The book O Major Façanha is part of the Trilogy of Maximiano Campos and the Project Low Price Books of the Ministry of Culture, in partnership with the National Library Foundation.

The book takes a perspective on the situation of the Brazilian Creative Economy. Culture, innovation, technology and development are the themes that permeate this literary work. The book progresses among themes tangent to the main one, such as the Cultural BRIC, Creative Economy’s relationship with the law, showing successful examples of Pernambuco and national sectors that have invested, innovated and agreed on creativity. The book encourages reflection and debate on the urgent need to innovate and create new concepts and aspects in areas of Brazil, equating them thus to a global level.

The crisis of values. The environmental crisis. These and other major parallel themes are scenarios to which the writer Antonio Campos makes reference in this book. The theme that underlies this collection of articles is something shared by almost all influential currents of thought in our century. We live in a new era of uncertainties among many others that permeate the contemporary history of humanity and the people: a crisis of values in number and considerable extensions. The society has become more open and plural, more intercultural, better assuming the differences. The struggles have changed, the way to claim too, but what should not change is the rebellious spirit of resistance.

Jealousy – The Fear of Loss broaches ways to understand and control this contradictory – and sometimes destructive - feeling, transforming it into positivity in a couple’s life.

In a sensitive, clear and engaging way, Eduardo Ferreira-Santos makes this book a true contribution to the better understanding of jealousy’s multi-faceted nature and an effective tool for achieving a fuller, more loving life together, free of distrust.

136 Pages ISBN: 978-85-7492- 187-7 Rights available

In The Black Flame of Joy, the narrative is constructed from deep dives into memories, where no longer the narrator, but the individual himself emerges flooded by poetic language. With any distance between the narrator and reader eliminated, the nuances of feelings and experiences are communicated from one to another instantly by virtue of the most powerful employment of the word - another name for poetry. Bewitched by language in its magical dimension, the reader is taken from their comfort zone and drawn by the narration into a vertiginous vortex, from which they will only emerge upon the last line of the book, wondering: “Is it romance? Is it poetry?”

Mentioning 1968 is like mentioning a magic number: it always transports us back to that timeless year, part of a crucial moment in history. 1968 – A Time of Choices is a book that revisits that era, but is not limited to the story of a person becoming immersed in the fight against the dictatorship in Brazil. It goes beyond the political experience, making this an even more fascinating read. The way Catarina Meloni presents her memories wins the reader over. Extending beyond political recollections, there is an essential story within a story in the telling of her personal memoir, and that of her family, her people, and her companions.

Brazilian Popular Music and Modern Poetry Author: Affonso Romano de Sant’Anna

Despite having different backgrounds and experiences, readers will recognize in The Smell of Chocolate and Other Stories places and moments of a world they know well, which the author conveys with rare mastery. Through mutatis mutandis, he tells of that which characterizes our universal existence: the struggle for survival, love, heartbreak, the joy of achievement, the pain of loss, indifference, solidarity, solitude, and the strength to carry on. It is said that literature is born of life, and that it brightens life. That is definitely the case in books like this. We can visit its pages as children, adolescents, adults, and in our twilight years: they speak to us all. Ruy Espinheira Filho

This book serves as a guide when reading modern Brazilian popular music and when interpreting the transformations poetry in Brazil underwent since the Modernist movement in 1922. The author draws parallels between the parodist aesthetics of Modernism and Noel Rosa’s samba, ponders the vainglorious poetry and music of Vargas’s time, finds similarities between the samba song and the Generation of ‘45’s bolero, reaffirms the parallels between bossa nova and the vanguard musical movement, revisits the Tropicalia renaissance and addresses the so-called “Marginal Poetry” that emerged in the 1970s.

Written in Hilda Hilst’s highly distinctive prose, in which all narrative genres merge and the widest variety of aesthetic resources is used, the obscene Madame D is Hillé, who, after the death of her lover, retracts into the recess under the stairs to talk “about this thing that does not exist, but is raw and alive, Time”.

As Madame D herself states: “Life has been an obscene adventure for being so lucid”.

The late Brazilian psychiatrist and writer J. A. Gaiarsa (1920-2010) was a harsh critic of the family and the social hypocrisy surrounding family values. To him, the set of rules to which people obey from birth – rules that are passed on to children even though parents themselves are a victim of the very rules they live by – serves only one purpose: oppression. In this book, the author shows that love cannot be restricted to certain restraints. As you read on, be prepared to challenge all of your pre-conceived notions of loyalty, family ties, relationships, and happiness.

In this work, Nelson Luiz de Carvalho blends everyday elements with central themes of passion and freedom to write a love story of universal appeal. As they discover love, two young men understand that from now on they need to find the right balance between their feelings and what their family and society expect of them. This is the story of a forbidden love that wants to find its place in the world and two persons in love who stand rise to the challenge of fighting for what they believe in. Based on true events, this is a novel that defies labels and hypocrisy by revealing the intricacies of emotion in the lives of ordinary young men faced with the urges of the modern world.

In this book, Flávio Gikovate states that the union between man and woman is a bond between opposites — that is, a selfish person is bewitched by a generous person and the other way around. Yet this kind of relationship causes both partners problems, for they will ultimately go through situations of sorrow and disappointment. According to the author, investing in one’s own freedom and individuality is the solution. This could bring about couples formed by fair people, more mature to experience love. An English translation of this work is available.

Sousândrade’s inferno ambience, Chant X, has Guesa, a modern anthropological source of poetical inspiration, as its symbol-character. On one hand, his role is a structural one, organizing the poem. On the other hand, this axis-character takes on a psychological role, since he is the medium for interpreting the reality of the poet, of Maranhão, of Brazil and of the Americas. Specific to the Wall Street episode, the image of Guesa takes on a self-defining character and Sousândrade becomes Guesa.

Oscar Niemeyer: The marquee and the original design of the Ibirapuera Park Organizer: Cecília Scharlach Photos: Nelson Kon

Format: 25 x 25 cm - 120 Pages ISBN 85-7060-487-4 Rights available

João Figueiras Lima, Lelé, is one of the most important names of the modern movement of architecture. Though he is a disciple of Oscar Niemeyer, he worked in the construction of Brasília, his style took off thanks to his own methods and the characteristics of his work. He threw himself into the knowledge of architectural issues related to industry and nation development, seeking cost-effective solutions, without prejudice to plasticity. The book shows projects, from the construction of urban equipment to serial schools, built in armed mortar, as well as public hospitals, for which the furniture and ventilation system were designed to eliminate the air conditioning usage.

This book, with Nelson Kon’s photo essay, highlights the unique plasticity of drawings and designs made for the Ibirapuera Park by Oscar Niemeyer, the biggest name in Brazilian architecture. It shows the passage of the drawing on the drawing board to the building constructed, but with the Ibirapuera Park’s project incomplete, Oscar Niemeyer, in protest, did not attend the opening of his theater. This pendency is the object of this book, which gathers the testimonies of Niemeyer himself and other exponents of Brazilian architecture and culture, such as the architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha.

My Sweet Orange Tree Author: José Mauro de Vasconcelos.

An autobiographical novel in which the creatures that played a fundamental role in the author’s early childhood are transformed into characters. The book captures, in an eminently lyric tone, Zezé’s children world. The boy, Zezé, lives in the bosom of a very poor family, made up of an unemployed father, a working mother and several brothers. Since the outside world is very harsh, the boy creates a world in which he seeks refuge, and in which he confers a soul to animals and trees, escaping through paths of the imagination and ludic inventiveness. Since its release in 1968, the book has been successfully adapted to theater, soap-opera and movie.

The Barnacle Goose and other kitchen stories Author: Breno Lerner Illustrator: Domingos Takeshita

Breno Lerner gathered his chronicles and reflections written for his column, “Kitchen Talk”, published in several newspapers and magazines since 2001. The result is a huge conversation that goes from gastronomy, types of foods and what goes around in the kitchen. What kind of goose is this barnacle, anyway? What was served in the last dinner on Titanic? What did sailors use to eat in the Great Navigations? When you start reading The Barnacle Goose, you’re not able to stop. Isn’t that what they also say about eating? This is, doubtless, Breno Lerner’s goal: to serve his chronicles as a perfect meal.

In this fiction, an attentive, intrigued and fascinated eye follows the painter: it belongs to Camille Roulin, the postman’s eleven-yearold son, whose family became close friends with Van Gogh. Perhaps only Camille could have perceived that, in his paintings, Van Gogh created for himself the only world where he could find love and peace. Luiz Antonio Aguiar is one of Brazil’s most important writers of Literature for Young Readers.

Stalking Author: Flávio Braga

Daily Performance Author and illustrator: Felipe Bittencourt

151 Pages ISBN: 978-85-64013-63-6 Rights available

384 Pages ISBN: 978-85-64013-54-4 Rights available

Stalking means furtively and pursuingly approaching and has come up in USA through the criminal typification of such an activity, as it is done with hunting. In Brazil there are lots of victims, and this novel, which takes place on the famous beaches of Rio de Janeiro and the bohemian Copacabana, based on real facts, has been idealized from a true event: a middle class man. At age 49, he meets his ex-girlfriend once again, and his life turns into a hunting, in which he is the tusk. Identities have been kept secret. Both are alive and live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

As a creative answer to a difficult period of his life, Felipe Bittencourt has invented a daily performance project and he has published them at his Flickr during the exact period of a year. As photograms of his days, each proposal enables us to observe the state of mind of the artist who calls himself as “the performer”. Sometimes the proposals are comic, others are sad and melancholic, in an alternation of humours which makes us realize that the tiny world of this cartoon character comprehends more than artistic ideas thrown to the wind.

The Gospel according to Talion Author: Flávio Ricardo Vassoler Illustrator: Bruno Romão

303 Pages ISBN: 978-85-64013-64-3 Rights available

Luís Antônio Gabriela Author: Nelson Baskerville Illustrator: Thiago Hattnher

Impossible to classify in a single genre, the book is based on the bricolage of various forms of narratives to capture the sense and the resentment of our times in a way that just a select group of authors has already done. The plot synthetizes the misadventures of a certain civilization – which happens to be ours – through typical characteres who face situations which aggregate the strength, intensity and aggressiveness of an atomic explosion. In an epoche in which it seems to predominate the psychopathy of people who know no limits, an irremediable narcissism, an easy, dilated and limitless pleasure, The Gospel according to Talion is an essential and healthy exercise.

Nelson Baskerville, Brazilian director and dramatist, tells the saga of his brother, Luís Antônio, the eldest of a six children family that, with the second marriage of the father, gained three more “sisters”, daughters of the step mother. In the time of Brazilian military dictatorship, the boy, who since his first years had never hidden his homosexuality, was beaten by his father in order to be cured. Obviously, he soon gained the street, and jumping to marginality was his only choice. With silicon applications he became a shemale, and as Gabriela, he goes to Spain, country in which she becomes a night star.

In this book, award-winning journalist Gilberto Dimenstein follows characters of different backgrounds, but who have something in common: the desire to create alternatives for the hopelessness experienced by those at risk. The author constructs a panel on the evolution of crime to demonstrate that, even under the worst conditions, the initiative of some people determined to the initiative of some people determined to invent social inclusion strategies is capable of causing radical change. Personal involvement in social issues along with Dimenstein’s ideas described in this book serve as encouragement for those Brazilians committed to building a more just nation. (Drauzio Varella)

Examining the poems written in her youth and the letters received from her companions at the time, Mariana finds they fit together to tell their lives: adolescents growing up during the years of military ruling in Brazil, in the 60ies and 70ies. Differences in opinion or political ideas could set friends and even relatives in conflicting sides. Although written as fiction, the book is based on true stories – names and places altered to avoid undesirable recognition. Facts in the background are real and documented by newspapers clippings. The perception of such events as seen at the time turns the book into an important testimony for the new generations.

Having well known spots of beautiful Rio de Janeiro for background, the book presents a collection of twelve short stories on different objects of human passions. A forgotten love, passion for art, passion for football, young dreams… are some of the themes to enthrall the reader and take them to unexpected ends – intriguing, good-humoured ends. Richly illustrated with colourful photographs taken from a love-of-the-town point of view.

The foundation of Petropolis is directly linked to the German immigrants hired to work in the construction of an imperial summer palace while establishing an agricultural settlement in the surrounding grounds. They came from Duchies as Prussia, Bavaria, Nassau and others. “Delicious Legacy” tells the story of such people, their work and amusement traditions. Their delicious culinary legacy is presented by tested and well explained recipes that the reader can enjoy. The book also teaches to appreciate beer in all its forms, including applications in the kitchen. Illustrated with old photos of the settlers and the city when still an imperial village.

Back to her grand-mother’s hometown to fetch a forgotten sewing box, Heloisa is surprised to find curious facts about her family. The search takes her to unexpected obstacles and people. Every different situation reminds her of her childhood in the town and brings new intriguing revelations. The narrative, exciting sometimes, keeps the reader in suspense, but sometimes it is pure romance, for above all, this is a tale of love. A trip in time and space traces the changes in women’s behaviour along two centuries: the conformism and rebellion, the price to be paid for transgression – the secrets. After all, who was the true D. Cotinha? What secrets had she kept in a sewing box?

Design + Craft: The Brazilian Path Author: Adélia Borges

Format: 21 x 27 cm - 240 Pages ISBN: 9788578160845 Rights available

Cangaço was a social phenomenon in the Brazilian Northeast between the mid-19th century and beginning of the 20th century. Lampião, considered the figure that led the movement from the depths of Sertão, Brazil’s semi-arid region, to the pages of big-city newspapers, wisely took advantage of a great invention that was popularized in the early 20th century: photography. By its photography documentation, Cangaço reached newspaper pages and the popular imagination. News reports helped its main historical figures become consolidated in the people’s minds. The book offers 150 of such photographs and a DVD with the sole moving images of the social bandits that came to be known as cangaceiros.

Head and hands, heart and soul: the meeting of peoples with different profiles and skills with the most diverse life experiences springs what we could call Brazilian identity. A growing number of artisans and designers are working together in efforts to revitalize handcrafted objects. With over three decades of design studies, Adélia Borges creates a deep portrait of recent achievements in Brazilian handcraft and offers a meticulous analysis of the country’s efforts to add value to its artisan works.

Brazil, 18th century. The first Brazilian urban centers are growing rapidly and intensely, supported by a slave-based economy. Mines had been found and there is plenty of gold financing a wave of baroque art in several cities. Within that context “criola” jewelry is created, being produced and used by blacks, from those freed to the still enslaved, as symbols of power, seduction and sorcery, even serving to buy freedom. The book presents an astounding collection of such craftsmanship, accompanied by historical engravings, paintings and photographs proving the daily use of the delicate objects.

Bearing an unusual design, the book is shaped like an accordion and can be completely opened to reveal with its almost 20m five panoramic images of São Paulo. Created during helicopter flights and from building roofs, the images aim to show how difficult it is to visualize the spatial dimension of the city. About São Paulo is the most recent project of artist Claudia Jaguaribe, who has works in the main Brazilian and international contemporary art institutions, like Itaú Cultural Collection, MAM, MASP, Contemporary Art Institute – Inhotim and Maison Européenne de la Photographie.

This is a photographic essay by Roberto Linsker, the result of travels between myth and reality, a journey that lasted for eight years along the vast extent of Brazil’s coastline. “Everything began with just a line, clearly separating that which is of man from that which isn’t: the horizon.” And the photographer’s eyes swept the horizon seeking the everyday, which on many occasions became the epic. It was in looking for fleeting memories in the diversity of the ocean that he discovered the identity of these men.

The river that flows stars Autor: Santana Filho

128 Pages ISBN: 9788562370410 Rights available

168 Pages ISBN: 9788562370519 Rights available

As John Anzanello Carrascoza said, Marcelo Maluf brings “safe narrative, rich fable making and singular literature” and shows the reader that the only thing we can share about our personal experiences are metaphors. The highly imagistic narratives gathered in this book trespass the verisimilar, and put us in suspension like a zen koan. Clearly influenced by authors such as Julio Cortázar, Murilo Rubião, and Alejandro Jodorowsky, this work also arises directly from the contact the author had in recent years with various sources of spirituality, since the mysticism from the early Christians passing by Sufis, Zen and Tibetan Buddhism and Brazilian indigenous shamanic traditions.

The fiction in The river that flows stars is soaked in memories, as Maria Adelaide Amaral says in the preface: “Santana ascended to heaven, wandered through cold corridors, stepped down on the engine room and came across with undergrounds which, he said, no one sees without going into the dark. Luckily for us readers, the therapist discovered the poet and turned his childhood in pure poetry.” Santana Filho allows the reader to experience a childhood in the country of a Brazil that may no longer exist.

Marcia Barbieri is considered by important authors as a great promise of Brazilian literature. Managing a poetic, spinning and hallucinating prose, in this book the narration comes from the protagonist Maria Luiza, a strong-willed woman, extremely passionate, whose jealousy borders on madness. She is atylist that barely leaves the apartment she shares with her husband Lúcio, a photographer. The reader is dragged through the tortuous and schizophrenic visions of Maria Luiza. However, in the last chapters of the book, all her narrative will be demystified by the perspective of Lúcio, who will reveal to the reader a secret about Maria Luiza and show himself without the lens of the wicked woman. But can we trust him or is Lucius as psychotic as his wife? Which one to trust?

Where can the dreams lead us to? This is the question Petê Rissatti poses with his novel. Ivan G. lives in a world ruled by a unique power, the World Government. One day, Ivan receives a letter from the Government informing that from now on all citizens ought to take Requiem, a drug that suppresses the capacity of dreaming. The punishment to those having their dreams tracked is harsh. One night, Ivan, a simple Government archivist, gets short of Requiem and sees his entire life go upside down when he finds himself involved with the Dreamers, a revolutionary group fighting against the oppressor and dictatorial Government. What would you do if you could not dream anymore?

The Church is called to deeply rethink its mission. It is a matter of affirming, renewing and revitalizing the novelty of the Gospel deeply rooted in our history, starting with a personal and communitarian encounter with Jesus Christ, which awakens disciples and missionaries (Doc. of Aparecida n. 11). The General Guidelines for the Evangelizing Action of the Church in Brazil 2011-2015 (CNBB) ask the Christian communities to look for concrete answers for the Gospel announcement in our time, with a view to the five “urgencies”: live encounter with Jesus Christ; biblical animation of life and pastoral; missionary joy; Church as a community of communities, and Church at the service of a fulfilling life for everybody. This book proposes a spiritual pedagogy that is the fruit of several experiences that nourish our hope.

After twenty years offering religious assistance, as the chaplain at Hospital de Clínicas at the University of São Paulo Medical School (FMUSP), one of the largest hospitals in Latin America, I have learned to deal with limit-situations. In this health care cathedral, where life and death are very close partners, I have experienced the situations described in this book. I cannot guarantee that some of these accounts do not cause doubts or even generate a little crisis in faith. However, I wrote only about things I believe in. The accounts may even disappoint the reader. However, in my ministry, I try to be authentic, honest, and true, without “killing” hope or taking away the faith of anybody while, at the same time, refusing to nurture illusions or to overlook the feelings of those who suffer.

In our days, the Lord needs a rescue squad, highly trained on God’s Word. Without nourishment we will lose the fight. Every day we have to get our “manna” portion. Otherwise, we will stumble and God does not want to see us defeated by lack of food. Happy are those who understand the importance of the Bible in their daily life. Those will be the winners.

The struggle for holiness is not easy, it requires from us perseverance and faith, but it must be continuous. If you find yourself static, you need to walk. If you find yourself on the ground, you must rise up again and get back on track, because God always welcomes those who want to return to Him. In Arise and Walk, Emanuel Stênio explains that it is not only possible, but also necessary to be a saint, these days. Through examples of his own life and the Gospel, he shows the steps that will be essential to start the path toward the place that the Father has in store for each of His children in heaven. Let’s go together?

The book talks about the charisma of tears and all the good it brings us, as the power of healing and forgiveness. The author shows us that the gift of tears is a way to express ourselves before God. “It is a simple and humble gift of the Holy Spirit that brings in it a power of salvation.” It has nothing to do with dismay, drowsiness, weak will, negativism, depression or even sadness. It may be considered an effective prayer, that God answers promptly. God has the power to transform the humiliation we experience in the present into victory.

We all want to be happy. But, after all, what is happiness? In this book, Father Adriano Zandoná will help you discover many of the elements needed to build happiness in your story. With each chapter, a new brick will be placed in this big construction. Without demagogies or readymade answers, you will be guided to reflect and find some good points on how to better manage your existence, with fulfillment and happiness. The joy is not something permanent and some days certainly will seem to be more cloudy, but happiness is something that comes from inside and is not shaken by outside realities. Do not get stuck to what is fleeting... Learn how to fly higher!

This book tells the history of one of the greatest catholic communities in the country. It is a touching account of the journey of its community members, revealing the struggle and sacrifices they faced to build what is considered today an example of trusting in the divine providence. This history started in a small country town in the state of São Paulo by Father Jonas Abib, along with 12 young boys and girls, which got fruitful results, such as the evangelization of thousands through media and the propagation of the faith throughout the world. From the first mission house in Queluz to the Pontifical Recognizing, Canção Nova continues to prove that it is a God’s Deed.

Problems are part of our life. And still, there is no trick to make them disappear. The option, therefore, is to face them. Thinking about this, Father Fabrício wrote this book with the yearning to guide us toward the best response we can give to difficulties, always aiming to mature in our faith and to grow in our commitment to the will of God. In this book, you will be invited to discover the truth around you, the reason for your sufferings and fears and to start experiencing something completely new. But, in order to accept the invitation, it is essential to have determination and courage, since you will need to be released from your “own desire” and guided by the winds of the Lord.

A Workout for the Soul is an invitation to an abundant life, which is attainable here and now, not just later in heaven, for all those who are willing and ready to “exercise” their souls. All of us have habits that we cultivate throughout our lifetime. Some habits are good, others are not. The bad news is that even the good habits can become unhealthy habits. We must rid ourselves of these if we want to live healthy lives. We must learn to develop healthy habits, because we are responsible for the lives we live here and now, which are eternal.

Many people are interested in understanding theological thought but encounter difficulty, principally because they are unable to discover the link between theology and the reality of daily life. And many others who specialize in theological knowledge have difficulty conveying these concepts in a comprehensible and palatable manner. There needs to be balance, dialogue and interaction. In this work, Luiz Sayão discusses a series of important themes such as ethics, racism, fatalism, liberalism, mysticism, biblical theology, theology of the family, theology and society, and church history in a presentation that is filled with profound thought, common sense, simplicity, objectivity, creativity and humor.

We can state that this work is groundbreaking and this can be understood in two different ways. The first one possesses an essentially factual character: this is believed to be the first work published in Brazil on the relationship between Schopenhauer’s thought and Buddhism. The second one is much more relevant: this is the first work published in Brazil that not only develops a rigorous mapping of the sources employed by Schopenhauer in his study of Buddhism, but also approaches the philosophical issue of the existing relationship between these two thoughts (i.e., the relationship between Schopenhauer’s thought and the Buddhist philosophy.

By making an analogy between Francis of Assisi and Francis of Rome, Leonardo Boff approaches these symbolic figures. It is not simple comparison, but the realization of a divine inspiration.

Historian Rodrigo Ricupero demonstrates in this book that the tasks necessary for colonizing new lands could only be assumed by those with resources. The services provided required capitol, but the compensation that they received for these services led to new investments in the growing economy. In Brazil, the elite controlled resources, owned lands and slaves, was committed to the settlement process and provided the framework for the colonial administration. The period of the rise of the nascent elite occurred from 1530 – the beginning of colonization – to the middle of the seventeenth century. In this period of conquest and consolidation of the Portuguese domination of the Atlantic coast, between São Vicente and Belém, every step forward served to strengthen the colonial elite, allowing the occupation of new lands and the capture of thousands of indigenous.

Seven Lessons on Brazilian Thought Author: Bernardo Ricupero

224 Pages ISBN: 978-85-98325-56-9 Rights available

In this volume, historian Vera Lucia Amaral Ferlini examines the social configuration unique to the formation of Brazil. In order to understand this social structure, one must first examine the territorial and political dimensions of the Portuguese expansion. The Brazilian enslaver society was not based solely on the institution of slavery, but was also influenced by the integration of the mercantile, slave-based plantation, along with pre-existing European principles. Understanding this diversity is fundamental to understanding the mechanisms of the monopoly of power held by a small privileged group of people.

Bernardo Ricupero explains the importance and current relevance of several important Brazilian thinkers and their ideas: the concept of Brazilian “cordiality”, by Sérgio Buarque de Holanda; the relationship of the Brazilian with other peoples, by Oliveira Vianna; Gilberto Freire’s racial mixing and patriarchal State; the discussion regarding our colonial past, by Caio Prado Júnior; RaymundoFaoro’s analysis on the weight of the State on the nation; and Florestan Fernandes’ theory that the revolution of the middle class in Brazil was not a historic episode, but rather a structural phenomenon. Any attempt to understand Brazil begins, even indirectly, with these scholars.

From 1570 to the middle of the nineteenth century, between 38 to 43 per cent of all of the Africans trafficked to the Americas ended up in Brazil. African slave culture produced innumerable institutions related to family, food, music and culture. The slaves formed a large number of well-populated quilombos as a form of protest, creating brotherhoods in the cities. This book discusses some of the institutions formed in urban centers, as well as important individuals from the nineteenth century urban culture and workplace.

On this book dedicated to students of every level, Pierluigi Piazzi, teaches how to use intelligence to become a more intelligent person.

What is the importance of an analytic critic of the tourism? Do the scholars of tourism do a superficial analysis of this phenomena on the modern society? Is the study of tourism a science? With a profound base on philosophy and epistemology, the author penetrates intellectually on the theories of tourism, identifying the positivism as a paradigmatical analysis of the twentieth century tourism. From it, he emerges with the proposition of a more humane, logic and coherent critic point of view, proposing phenomenology as one of the possibilities of the problems found on his analysis.

With good humor and softness, the author invites us to join a walk that seeks knowledge about the continuity of life. No Fear of Death demystifies the topic and highlights the importance of parapsychism, a self-persuasive instrument with regards to the true nature of consciousness, its vehicles of manifestation and the reality of life and death.

Education – From Common Sense to Philosophical Consciousness Author: Dermeval Saviani

To learn Mathematics Author: Sergio Lorenzato

320 Pages ISBN: 978-85-7496-205-4 Rights available

To go from the common sense to the philosophical conscience it is necessary to cultivate, somehow, the erudition. But the word erudition reminds a double, ambiguous meaning. On one hand, it expresses a wide and detailed knowledge, and the erudite is someone who dominates all the details of science or art he cultivates. On the other hand, it reminds a depreciatory meaning, showing a multiplicity of knowledge that do not articulate organically and critically. Considering this aspect, the erudition is opposed to culture, and is understood as a free knowledge, not connected to the ways of thinking, acting and feeling that define culture. That is the message that the present book aims to show the readers.

The axis of this book is the relations between education and democracy. If it is reasonable to suppose that democracy cannot be taught through non-democratic practices, it cannot be concluded that the democracy of the internal relationships in the schools is enough to prepare young students for their active participation into the democratization of society. This is not about simply choosing between authoritarian or democratic relations within the classroom, but to articulate the work developed in the schools with the process of the democratization of society.

This book, directed to both Mathematics teachers and continuous training courses for Elementary and High School teachers, was born from hardship faced by teachers to make operational the basic educational principles of the pedagogical practice, such as: to take advantage of the students experiences; encourage experimentation and rediscovering; value and take advantage of the students’ errors and doubts, as well as to teach Arithmetic, Geometry and Calculus in an integrated manner, respecting individual differences and emphasizing the students’ questions, in order to explore Mathematics application. Trying to make the Mathematics learning meaningful and enjoyable, this work covers 25 educational principles whose application favors an education of high quality.

It fights social and educational imbalance, promotes the participation of the community in the construction of its own welfare, it is sensitive to differences and embraces diversity. Technology and communication media are integrated to promote social awareness, and educators – as facilitators - encourage pupils to be free-thinkers conscientious about their rights and duties, exercise justice, empathy, responsibility, tolerance, and build a more just, sustainable and balanced society.

The book is an insightful report on the teacher qualification processes and the role of universities in promoting quality education to teachers, school directors, and managers of public education networks. Such insight stems from Brazil´s public education support and qualification projects developed by FAFE, the School of Education Support Foundation, in partnership with the University of São Paulo School of Education (Brazil), and reveals how these initiatives were conceived and developed. The outcome is undeniable: the influence of universities in education networks is not a one-way street; quite the opposite, there is a dynamic exchange between theoretical and practical knowledge.

Should society make ever greater efforts to curb suicidal behavior? The alarming statistics show why suicide has become a public health problem: suicide rates are increasing around the world, with roughly one million suicides a year. These deaths affect between five and ten million “survivors,” including family members and friends, and cause significant economic loss. This book approaches the subject analytically and from the perspective of prevention, taking a holistic view on the causes of suicidal behavior. The author maintains that people exhibiting suicidal behavior can be identified and helped to overcome situations that might lead them to take their own lives.

Marina Colasanti and Affonso Romano de Sant’Anna, renowned Brazilian authors, paint a sensitive portrait of their friend, Clarice Lispector, one of the most influential fiction writers of Brazilian contemporary scenario.

Format: 14 x 21 cm - 192 Pages ISBN: 9788539304028 Rights available

This book brings together five essays in which the author examines the financialization of the economy. He believes capitalism cannot deal with the anxieties of bourgeois ascension. In an effort to trace capital’s contemporary movement and find the consequences of its metamorphoses, the author goes back to Marx and Keynes. He also takes protest movements into account. The author argues against the idea that the financial domination of the economy indicates a decoupling of the fictitious valuation of wealth in relation to the generation of value in the productive sphere. He thinks finance’s hegemony is actually the result of new, even more advanced forms of value.

This book is part of the 20th-Century Revolutions Collection. It begins by looking back at South Africa’s colonization by the Dutch, French and English in the 17th century. It argues this is where the apartheid regime’s roots lie – in a contradiction between class and race that played out in unique historical circumstances. It also looks at Nelson Mandela’s emergence as South Africa’s leader. It goes into detail about Mandela’s little-known rise to power and describes the path that led him to become a model of resistance around the world. The book takes apart myths about the South African Revolution and shows how little are really known about it - and that the transition from the apartheid to democracy, for instance, was not peaceful.

The number and diversity of social actors and domestic bureaucracies with wide-ranging international actions have expanded enormously in recent years, and, as a result, Itamaraty’s ability to direct them has been reduced.

HABERMAS AND RECONSTRUCTION: On the Central Theme of Habermasian Critical Theory Organizer: Marcos Nobre and Luiz Repa

144 Pages ISBN 978-85-308-0889-1 Rights available

This book exams the process of writing scripts for documentary films. While in a fiction film screenwriting takes place entirely during the development phase, prior to pre-production and shooting, in the documentary, the writing many times extends throughout the entire production process. In this regard, Sérgio Puccini presents considerations on the stages of pre-production, shooting and postproduction, focusing on the role each one plays in constructing a documentary. He also demonstrates how the possibility of working with an open script can allow technical areas, like cinematography and editing, to have greater creative participation in the film.

Habermas is best known for his ideas on communicative action. Indeed, his thoughts on emancipation are often confused with communicative rationality. But it doesn’t end there. This philosopher attempts to produce a theory of rationality, not only a theory of communicative rationality. Habermas himself states that his Critical Theory of Society consists of a “reconstructive theory of society”. Far from being a mere methodology, “reconstruction” is the structural category of his work. Through it, he aims to both identify potentials for emancipation of our time, “(…) and critique and incorporate the results from non-critical social theories, from traditional theories. This book aims precisely to present this central idea in all aspects and phases of Habermas’s work

The impact of new technologies over language teaching is undeniable. Rapid changes have demanded teachers and students to acquire new abilities and develop new strategies to fully use the potential of the new technologies. The school must be connected with its students (and teachers!) to have access to educational opportunities offered by these new technologies. We live in the liquid languages era, in the era of networking and relationships. The school must prepare its audience for an increasingly digital functioning on the society and to seek within cyberspace a meeting spot with differences and multiple identities.

Grammar concepts, analyzes and parameters Author: Maria Helena de Moura Neves Lingua[gem] Collection

How would a people have gotten to a situation in which there would be a grammar manual to be prepared? Tradition teaches us that this happened in Greece, in the Hellenistic period, a moment in which there was a collapse of the patterns of the language considered “pure”, fact that already exposes the work’s motivation. The center of the query is the indetermination of language, what conditions a multiplicity of relationships and tensions, all of it determining more fluidity than rigidity in language use, that is, more continuous accommodations than immutable installations.

New Pragmatics Periods and Features Author: Kanavillil Rajagopalan Lingua[gem] Collection

This book synthetizes Kanavillil Rajagopalan’s reflections over the speech acts theory, its main inspiration, J. L. Austin, and its major propagandist, John Searle. What Rajagopalan makes evident is that the reading Searle does of Austin’s work is a skewed and interested intervention, and that there are other reading possibilities for Austin’s work and to seize his intuitions – crushed by the prestige and monopoly of Searle’s interpretation. Regarding his theory, Austin places himself in collision course with not less than the platonic realism, which both defines and functions as one of the bastions of the philosophical enterprise called analytical philosophy.

How to study language? This is one of the main issues which guide the author through the whole book.

If by the middle of the twentieth century literacy practices based on the use of written technology fulfilled the demands imposed to school education, this is no longer the case when digital technologies appear. New challenges are imposed on the school. We must see our students as protagonist subjects in the construction of meaningful knowledge and we must recognize the youngsters’ position as producers and consumers of cultural assets in new medias, understanding that juvenile cultures construct, from literate specific practices, social networks. The networks will allow these young people to become active cultural agents in several local and global cultures.
