Het arme en onaantrekkelijke meisje trekt vanuit de provincie naar Rio de Janeiro, waar zij een bescheiden kantoorbaantje vindt. Ze dagdroomt, beleeft een onbeantwoorde liefde en wordt ten slotte aangereden om te sterven als een naamloze, eenzame dode.Hoewel ze is voorgelogen, mishandeld en uitgebuit, was Macabéa toch gelukkig, iets wat de verteller van haar verhaal maar moeilijk kan begrijpen.

An exceptional overview of the experimental, political, and participatory artwork of an important, iconoclastic Latin American artist. Lygia Pape (1927-2004) was an influential Brazilian artist and pioneering member of the postwar avant-garde. She worked across an expansive range of media, including painting, drawing, prints, sculpture, film, performance, poetry, and installation, and her art is now exhibited worldwide. This handsome book provides an extensive examination of her lengthy, prolific career. Pape embraced the ideals of Concrete art and geometric abstraction early on, and later was an active participant in the Neo Concrete movement that championed experimentation and chance. During this time, she created participatory works that questioned the space between artist and viewer, as well as the social context of art itself. Featuring essays from art historians in both North and South America, an illustrated chronology, and two previously untranslated interviews with the artist, Lygia Pape is a testament to Pape's lasting importance to the modern art and culture of Latin America and to her position as a major figure of the international avant-garde.

"D. João: personagem fundamental na história luso-brasileira, que em meio às máscaras do cargo e aos poucos vestígios que deixou, fez com que sua personagem fosse, regra geral, uma criação pessoal dos historiadores que forjaram e continuam forjando sua história. Muito já se escreveu sobre o soberano em si mesmo ou acerca de seu governo. No entanto, várias lacunas ainda existem na historiografia sobre seu papel e sua política. Dessa forma, o livro que Juliana Gesuelli Meirelles apresenta ao público contribui para preencher um novo espaço em nossa historiografia acerca de D. João, cuja figura ocupa um lugar especial no imaginário dos brasileiros, como salientou o antropólogo Roberto DaMatta. 
Jovem historiadora, que há alguns anos trabalha com temáticas que envolvem o período joanino no Brasil, Juliana traz agora um olhar inovador sobre os diversos sentidos da política cultural durante a governança de D. João no mundo luso-brasileiro entre os anos de 1792-1821. Demonstra grande sensibilidade ao analisar, a partir da ótica da ilustração luso-brasileira, as especificidades da política cultural joanina por meio de quatro pontos fundamentais desse conjunto tanto em Lisboa quanto no Rio de Janeiro: a imprensa interatlântica, os Reais teatros, as Reais Academias Militares e as Reais Bibliotecas Públicas da Corte. Dessa forma, traz à luz a ação do Estado monárquico voltada para tais espaços de saber, demonstrando essa política como uma prática governativa da Coroa em sua ação em relação ao todo da sociedade daquela época, com exceção de uma grande parcela da população, ou seja, a dos escravos. No entanto, tal política cultural contribuiu para se apreender as constantes trocas não só entre diferentes segmentos da sociedade, como também entre mundos distintos.
Utilizando-se de um rico conjunto de fontes, Juliana consegue, a partir de leituras diversas e de um texto escrito com clareza, mapear o processo de construção da política cultural de D. João, combinando enfoques da história cultural e da nova história política. Por conseguinte, traz ao público leitor, em geral, novas informações e leituras que possibilitam a compreensão de um período histórico que abriu caminhos para a divisão do Império Português e para a construção de um novo Império – o Império Brasílico – em 1822."

Are interactions between soldiers, politicians, and civilians improving? Every nation has to come to grips with achieving a more enduring harmony between government, the armed forces, and society if it aspires to strengthen its democracy. While there is an abundance of studies on civil-military affairs, few examine all three of these actors, let alone establish any standards with which to assess whether progress is being made. This ambitious book devises a novel framework equipped with six dimensions, each of which opens a unique window into civil-military affairs, and which form a more integrated view of the subject. Those dimensions are accompanied by a set of benchmarks and metrics that assess progress and compare one country against another. The framework is applied to case studies of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay, with the conviction that insights could be gleaned that may be relevant elsewhere. Ultimately, by unpacking the civil-military relation into its various dimensions, this study has shed light on what it takes to transform what was once a politically-minded military into an organization dedicated to serving a democratic state and society.
