Working-through Collective Wounds Trauma, Denial, Recognition in the Brazilian Uprising【電子書籍】[ Raluca Soreanu ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Working-through Collective Wounds</em> discusses how collectives mourn and create symbols. It challenges ideas of the irrational and destructive crowd, and examines how complicated scenes of working-through traumas take place in the streets and squares of cities, in times of protest. Drawing on insights from the trauma theory of psychoanalyst S?ndor Ferenczi and his idea of the ‘confusion of tongues’, the book engages the confusions between different registers of the social that entrap people in the scene of trauma and bind them in alienation and submission. Raluca Soreanu proposes a trauma theory and a theory of recognition that start from a psychoanalytic understanding of fragmented psyches and trace the social life of psychic fragments. The book builds on psychosocial vignettes from the Brazilian uprising of 2013. It will be of great interest to psychoanalysts interested in collective phenomena, psychosocial studies scholars and social theorists working on theories of recognition and theories of trauma.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,507円

History of Capoeira: From Its African Roots to Brazilian Mastery Tracing the Evolution of an Afro-Brazilian Martial Art and Cultural Expression【電子書籍】[ Junlei Xingru Li ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In delving into the captivating history of Capoeira, we embark on a journey tracing its remarkable evolution from its African roots to its status as a quintessential expression of Brazilian culture. Capoeira, a unique blend of martial arts, dance, music, and ritual, embodies the resilience, creativity, and spirit of the Afro-Brazilian people. Our exploration begins by unraveling the intricate threads of its origins, exploring how it emerged from the cultural tapestry of West Africa and made its way across the Atlantic to the shores of Brazil. Through centuries of oppression, survival, and resistance, Capoeira has endured as a powerful symbol of freedom and identity.</p> <p>Each chapter of this indispensable book serves as a window into a different facet of Capoeira's rich and complex history. We delve into the African roots of the art form, examining its origins in the rituals and traditions of various West African ethnic groups. From there, we follow its journey through the harrowing transatlantic slave trade, where it took root and flourished amidst the brutality of colonial Brazil. Through the lens of history, we witness Capoeira's transformation from a tool of resistance and survival among enslaved Africans to a vibrant expression of Brazilian identity and culture.</p> <p>As we progress through the chapters, we confront the challenges and triumphs that have shaped Capoeira's trajectory over the centuries. We explore its role in the maroon communitiesーself-governing enclaves of escaped slavesーas a form of both physical defense and cultural preservation. We also confront the darker chapters of Capoeira's history, including its criminalization by Brazilian authorities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which led to persecution and imprisonment for its practitioners.</p> <p>Yet, amidst adversity, Capoeira persisted, undergoing a cultural renaissance in the 20th century that saw its resurgence as a respected art form and martial discipline. We examine its global spread and evolution, as Capoeira transcended national borders to become a cherished cultural export celebrated around the world. Through the lens of contemporary trends, we witness the ongoing efforts to preserve Capoeira's traditions while also embracing innovation and adaptation in a rapidly changing world.</p> <p>Importantly, this book explores the socio-political significance of Capoeira, illuminating its role as a symbol of resistance and empowerment for marginalized communities. We analyze its impact on popular culture, tracing its influence in music, film, and art, and highlighting its ability to inspire and unite people across cultural and geographical divides. Ultimately, as we reflect on Capoeira's journey and legacy, we recognize its enduring importance as not just a martial art, but as a living embodiment of the indomitable human spirit.</p> <p>In essence, this book is a testament to the profound cultural significance and historical resonance of Capoeira. Through meticulous research and engaging storytelling, it offers readers a comprehensive understanding of this multifaceted art form and its enduring legacy. From its humble beginnings in the villages of West Africa to its global presence in the 21st century, Capoeira stands as a testament to the power of resilience, creativity, and collective identity. This book is not just a journey through history; it is an invitation to explore the rich tapestry of human experience, as embodied in the vibrant rhythms and movements of Capoeira.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 844円

Spirit Song Afro-Brazilian Religious Music and Boundaries【電子書籍】[ Marc Gidal ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In <em>Spirit Song: Afro-Brazilian Religious Music and Boundaries</em>, Marc Gidal investigates how and why a multi-faith community in southern Brazil utilizes music to combine and segregate three Afro-Brazilian religions: Umbanda, Quimbanda, and Batuque. Combining ethnomusicology and symbolic boundary studies, Gidal advances a theory of musical boundary-work: the ways music reinforces, bridges, or blurs boundaries, whether for personal, social, spiritual, or political purposes. Gidal focuses on spirit-mediumship rituals and their musical accompaniment, exploring how the Afro-gaucho religious community employs music and rituals to variously promote innovation and egalitarianism in Umbanda and Quimbanda, while it reinforces musical preservation and hierarchies in Batuque. Religious and musical leaders carefully restrict the cosmologies, ceremonial sequences, and sung prayers of one religion from affecting the others so as to safeguard Batuque's African heritage. Members of disenfranchised populations view the religions as vehicles for empowerment, whether based on race-ethnicity, gender, or religious belief; and innovations in ritual music reflect this activism. These rituals come to life through illustrative video and audio examples on the book's companion website. The first book in English to focus on music in Afro-Brazilian religions, Spirit Song is a landmark study that will be of interest to ethnomusicologists, anthropologists, and religious studies scholars.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,443円

Public Diplomacy on the Front Line The Exhibition of Modern Brazilian Paintings´【電子書籍】[ Hayle Gadelha ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Exhibition of Modern Brazilian Paintings, held at the Royal Academy of Arts of London and seven other major venues throughout the United Kingdom in 1944 and 1945, was the first collective display of Brazil’s art shown in the United Kingdom and the largest ever sent abroad until then. It resulted from an initiative championed by the Brazilian Foreign Ministry and envisioned by 70 Modernist painters who donated 168 artworks as a contribution to the Allied War effort. Notwithstanding its historical relevance and unmatched scale, this event had never been academically investigated. Through exploring why and how successfully the Brazilian government devoted superlative efforts to this enterprise in the midst of World War II, this book is intended to fill this gap and gain an understanding of a largely neglected public aspect of a deeply studied period of Brazilian foreign policy.</p> <p>The research unearthed abundant firsthand documents to reconstruct the episode, adopting the hermeneutic method and a theoretical framework from the Public Diplomacy and Cultural Diplomacy fields in order to interpret the circumstances that made possible this improbable and challenging endeavor. It contends that the Exhibition was a remarkably innovative action of Public Diplomacy <em>avant la lettre</em>, which aimed at engaging with British society and enhancing the image of Brazil and its culture. Its motivations must be understood within the broader foreign policy, focused on obtaining prestige and repositioning Brazil in the postwar international order, which encompassed the deployment of 25,000 troops to fight in Europe. The research further claims that the initiative was intended and managed to achieve a substantial impact on views about Brazil, by means of conveying a well-planned message.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,023円

Wealth and Poverty in Contemporary Brazilian Capitalism【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book analyses contemporary capitalism from Brazil and from the Marxian critique of political economy, particularly; the co-dependency of wealth and poverty and of civilization and barbarism; the current tendency towards capital over-accumulation and the specific form assumed by the capitalist crisis in recent decades; the financialisation process of capital accumulation, its effects on the world of labour; and the place that the state assumes in this broad process. Current trends toward increasing social inequality, impoverishment of large sections of the population, precariousness of labour and rising unemployment, environmental destruction, the spread of austerity policies and the suppression of social policies, the rise of the far right (together with the strengthening of racism, misogyny, xenophobia, political and religious fanaticism and all manner of intolerance, etc.), low economic growth, the primacy of the financial dimension of capital accumulation, all need to be understood in their multiple and complex articulations, as fundamental and inherent elements of contemporary capitalism, associating empirical analysis with conceptual construction. Because they are strictly contradictory processes, a dialectical approach is required that reclaims the Marxian legacy, and aims to contribute to updating it, seeking to bring new and relevant elements to the Marxist debate, based on a specific interpretation of Marx's work, and as an immediate empirical basis the Brazilian reality.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 17,016円

Brazilian Cinema and the Aesthetics of Ruins【電子書籍】[ Guilherme Carr?ra ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**Winner of the British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies (BAFTSS) 2023 Award for Best First Monograph.</p> <p>Winner of the Association of Moving Image Researchers (AIM) 2022 Award for Best Monograph.**</p> <p>Guilherme Carr?ra's compelling book examines imagery of ruins in contemporary Brazilian cinema and considers these representations in the context of Brazilian society. Carr?ra analyses three groups of unconventional documentaries focused on distinct geographies: Bras?lia - <em>The Age of Stone</em> (2013) and <em>White Out, Black In</em> (2014); Rio de Janeiro - <em>ExPerimetral</em> (2016), <em>The Harbour</em> (2013), <em>Tropical Curse</em> (2016) and <em>HU Enigma</em> (2011); and indigenous territories - <em>Corumbiara: They Shoot Indians, Don't They?</em> (2009), <em>Tava, The House of Stone</em> (2012), <em>Two Villages, One Path</em> (2008) and <em>Guarani Exile</em> (2011). In portraying ruinscapes in different ways, these powerful films articulate critiques of the notions of progress and (under) development in the Brazilian nation.<br /> Carr?ra invites the reader to walk amid the debris and reflect upon the strategies of spatial representation employed by the filmmakers. He addresses this body of films in relation to the legacies of Cinema Novo, Tropic?lia and Cinema Marginal, asking how these presentday films dialogue with or depart from previous traditions. Through this dialogue, he argues, the selected films challenge not only documentary-making conventions but also the country's official narrative.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,159円

Little Brazil An Ethnography of Brazilian Immigrants in New York City【電子書籍】[ Maxine L. Margolis ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Walking west on 46th Street in Manhattan, just three blocks from Rockefeller Center, one passes Brazilian restaurants, the office of New York's Brazilian newspaper, a Brazilian travel agency, a business that sends remittances and wires flowers to Brazil, and a store that sells Brazilian food products, magazines, newspapers, videos, and tapes. These businesses are the tip of an ethnic iceberg, an unseen minority estimated to number some 80,000 to 100,000 Brazilians in the New York metropolitan area alone. Despite their numbers, the lives of these people remain largely hidden to scholars and the public alike. Now Maxine L. Margolis remedies this neglect with a fascinating and accessible account of the lives of New York's Brazilians.</p> <p>Showing that these immigrants belie American stereotypes, Margolis reveals that they are largely from the middle strata of Brazilian society: many, in fact, have university educations. Not driven by dire poverty or political repression, they are fleeing from chaotic economic conditions that prevent them from maintaining amiddle-class standard of living in Brazil. But despite their class origin and education, with little English and no work papers, many are forced to take menial jobs after their arrival in the United States. <em>Little Brazil</em> is not an insentient statistical portrait of this population writ large, but a nuanced account that captures what it is like to be a new immigrant in this most cosmopolitan of world cities.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,105円

Carlos Lacerda, Brazilian Crusader Volume I: The Years 1914-1960【電子書籍】[ John W. F. Dulles ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Playwright, journalist, and spectacularly successful governor, Carlos Lacerda was Brazil's foremost orator in the 20th century and its most controversial politician. He might have become president in the 1960s had not the military taken over. In the words of eminent historian Jos? Hon?rio Rodrigues, "No one person influenced the Brazilian historical process as much as Carlos Lacerda from 1945 to 1968."</p> <p>In this volume, the first of a two-volume biography, Professor Dulles paints a portrait of a rebellious youth, who had the willfulness of his prominent father and who crusaded for Communism before becoming its most outspoken foe. Recalling Lacerda's rallying cry, "Brazil must be shaken up," Dulles traces the career of the journalist whose unsparing attacks on the men in power led authorities to imprison him and employ thugs who pummeled him physically. The story covers events in which Lacerda helped alter Brazil, such as the redemocratization in 1945 and his revelation of scandals in high places in the early 1950s. An unsuccessful attempt by government men to murder him in 1954 led to the suicide of President Getulio Vargas in 1954.</p> <p>Lacerda's spirited oratory helped him become Brazil's most popular congressman, but it scared the rulers of Brazil and they prohibited the broadcast of his speeches after he returned from exile in 1956. Their effort to deprive him of his mandate stirred the entire nation and culminated in one of the most dramatic sessions ever held in the Chamber of Deputies.</p> <p>Dulles, who knew Lacerda well and had access to his papers, sheds light on Lacerda the man, ardent in courtship and in all his undertakings, intellectually restless, and scornful of routine and mediocrity. Lacerda had a vitriolic pen that made bitter enemies, but, as disclosed in these pages, his courage and incorruptibility attracted an enthusiastic following, evident in the landslide election victories that brought him seats on Rio de Janeiro's city council and in the federal Congress.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,524円

The Challenges for Building Regional Integration in the Global South The case of Brazilian Foreign Policy towards Mercosur【電子書籍】[ Tullo Vigevani ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book analyzes regional integration in South America with a focus on the Mercosur and Brazilian foreign policy from the 1990s. It reviews the history of the Mercosur and identifies the results achieved by the bloc, as well as the causes of difficulties and the reasons for stalemates over nearly 30 years of its existence. The authors identify the complex interrelation between domestic and foreign factors that have shaped Brazilian foreign policy. From 1991 onwards, relations between Latin American countries have changed while the Mercosur developed from a free trade area to a customs union. While intrabloc trade grew, there were huge difficulties in the form of regional institutional affirmation and cooperation. This history is of the utmost importance to understanding regionalism and politics in Latin America. The book therefore has two interrelated analytical dimensions: namely, focus on ideas and identity; and behavior, actions, and economic and political interests.

Social media logics Visibility and mediation in the 2013 Brazilian protests【電子書籍】[ Nina Santos ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book offers a unique perspective on the Brazilian communication environment in the middle of its most serious political crisis after a military dictatorship. The 2013 protests were an important turning point in the political life of the country, and are often seen as the trigger of many communicational and political dynamics that have led to recent political events, such as the election of a far right wing president. Understanding the transformation of the communication environment at that moment, as well as its consequences, helps to explain what is happening in the country today. The book’s argument finds its foundations in the following: a systemic view of the communication environment, a conception of technology as structured and transformed by its use, and an understanding of communicational dynamics as an essential part of democratic systems. Drawing on both interviews with key actors in the protests and on analysis of a corpus of tweets, the book assesses the relationship between the use of social media and the formation of mainstream discourses surrounding the concept of mediactivism. It also investigates alternative paths of information made possible by the use of social media when new mediators emerge, going on to search for an understanding of the consequences of social media visibility dynamics on the construction of the common world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 12,154円

Through the Brazilian Wilderness An Epic Adventure of the Roosevelt-Rondon Scientific Expedition【電子書籍】[ Theodore Roosevelt ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In 'Through the Brazilian Wilderness,' Theodore Roosevelt offers an enthralling account of his 1913 exploratory journey through the uncharted expanses of the Brazilian rainforest. This compelling narrative showcases Roosevelt's characteristic vigor and intricate attention to detail, capturing both the splendid beauty of the natural world and the challenges posed by its raw wilderness. Blending vivid descriptions with rich, introspective observations, the book reflects not only the spirit of early 20th-century exploration but also the burgeoning environmental consciousness of the era, highlighting the delicate interplay between humanity and the untamed landscape. Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, was a passionate naturalist and conservationist whose experiences shaped his worldview. His fascinations with nature and adventure can be traced back to his childhood, intensified by his encounters with diverse ecosystems. Disappointed by the outcome of the 1912 presidential election, his expedition to Brazil became a means of both personal rejuvenation and a profound examination of nature's power, culminating in his passionate plea for conservation within the context of modernity. For readers captivated by adventure, environmentalism, and historical introspection, 'Through the Brazilian Wilderness' is a remarkable testament to Roosevelt's tenacity and vision. It offers not only an adventure through an exotic landscape but also profound reflections on humanity's relationship with nature, making it an indispensable read for both history buffs and nature enthusiasts alike.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 318円

Brazilian Tales【電子書籍】[ Medeiros e Albuquerque & Machado de Assis & Carmen Dolores & Coelho Netto ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The noted Brazilian critic, Jos? Verissimo, in a short but important essay on the deficiencies of his country's letters, has expressed serious doubt as to whether there exists a genuinely Brazilian literature. "I do not know," he writes, "whether the existence of an entirely independent literature is possible without an entirely independent language." In this sense Verissimo would deny the existence of a Swiss, or a Belgian, literature. In this sense, too, it was no doubt once possible, with no small measure of justification, to deny the existence of an American, as distinguished from an English, literature. Yet, despite the subtle psychic bonds that link identity of speech to similarity of thought, the environment (which helps to shape pronunciation as well as vocabulary and the language itself) is, from the standpoint of literature, little removed from language as a determining factor. Looking at the question, however, from the purely linguistic standpoint, it is important to remember that the Spanish of Spanish America is more different from the parent tongue than is the English of this country from that of the mother nation. Similar changes have taken place in the Portuguese spoken in Brazil. Yet who would now pretend, on the basis of linguistic similarity, to say that there is no United States literature as distinguished from English literature? After all, is it not national life, as much as national language, that makes literature? And by an inversion of Verissimo's standard may we not come face to face with a state of affairs in which different literatures exist within the same tongue? Indeed, is not such a conception as the "great American novel" rendered quite futile in the United States by the fact that from the literary standpoint we are several countries rather than one?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

Capoeira The History of an Afro-Brazilian Martial Art【電子書籍】[ Matthias R?hrig Assun??o ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Originally the preserve of Afro-Brazilian slaves, the marginalized and the underclasses in Brazilian society, capoeira is now a mainstream sport, taught in Brazilian schools and practised by a range of social classes around the world. Some advocates now seek Olympic recognition for Capoeira.<br /> This apparent change in the meaning and purpose of Capeoira has led to conflicts between traditionalists, who view capoeira as their heritage descended from the maroons, a weapon to be used against the injustice and repression; and reformers, who wish to see Capoeira develop as an international sport.<br /> Capoeira: The History of Afro-Brazilian Martial Art explores Capoeira as a field of confrontation where the different struggles that divide Brazilian society are played out. It contains both the first comprehensive English language review of archive and contemporary literature relating to Capoeira, as well as the first scholarly account of Capoeira's history and development.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 19,417円
