Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The struggles for independence in Latin America during the first half of the nineteenth century were accompanied by a wide-ranging debate about political rights, nationality and citizenship. In South American Independence, Catherine Davies, Claire Brewster and Hilary Owen investigate the neglected role of gender in that discussion. Examining women writers from Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Colombia, the book traces the contradictions inherent in revolutionary movements that, while arguing for the rights of all, remained ambivalent, at best, about the place of women. Through studies of both published and unpublished writings, South American Independence reveals the complex role of women in shaping the vexed ideologies of independence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a transnational and comparative study examining the processes that led to the memorialization of slavery and the Atlantic slave trade in the second half of the twentieth century. Araujo explores numerous kinds of initiatives such as monuments, memorials, and museums as well as heritage sites. By connecting different projects developed in various countries and urban centers in Europe, Africa, and the Americas during the last two decades, the author retraces the various stages of the Atlantic slave trade and slavery including the enslavement in Africa, the process of confinement in slave depots, the Middle Passage, the arrival in the Americas, the daily life of forced labor, until the fight for emancipation and the abolition of slavery. Relying on a multitude of examples from the United States, Brazil, and the Caribbean, the book discusses how different groups and social actors have competed to occupy the public arena by associating the slave past with other human atrocities, especially the Holocaust. Araujo explores how the populations of African descent, white elites, and national governments, very often carrying particular political agendas, appropriated the slave past by fighting to make it visible or conceal it in the public space of former slave societies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does the notion of the "global south" mean to media studies today? This book interrogates the possibilities of global thinking from the South in the field of media, communication and cultural studies. Through lenses of millennial media cultures, it refocuses the praxis of the Global South in relation to the established ideas of globalization, development and conditions of post-coloniality. Bringing together original empirical work from media scholars from across the Global South, the volume highlights how contemporary thinking about the region as theoretical framework — an emerging area of theory in its own right — is incomplete without due consideration being placed on narrative forms, both analogue and digital, traditional and sub-cultural. From news to music cultures, from journalism to visual culture, from screen forms to culture-jamming, the essays in the volume explore contemporary popular forms of communication as manifested in diverse global south contexts. A significant contribution to cultural theory and communications research, this book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of media and culture studies, literary and critical theory, digital humanities, science and technology studies, and sociology and social anthropology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over twelve years in the first half of the nineteenth century, Giuseppe Garibaldi, the hero of Italian unification, lived, learned and fought in South America. He was tortured, escaped death on countless occasions, and met his Brazilian wife, Anita, who eloped with him in 1839. From then on, she would share in Garibaldi's personal and political odyssey, first in the breakaway republic of Rio Grande do Sul in southern Brazil, and then as Montevideo's admiral and general in the Uruguayan civil war. Richard Bourne breathes life and understanding into these spectacular South American adventures, which also shed light on the creation of Italy. Garibaldi's Redshirts liberated Sicily and Naples wearing ponchos adopted by his Italian Legion in Montevideo. His ideas, his charismatic command of volunteers, and his naive dislike of politicking were all infused by his earlier experiences in South America. Bourne combines historical research with his travels in Uruguay and southern Brazil to explore contemporary awareness of and reflection on how the past can influence or be transformed by the needs of today. Now, at a time of narrow identity politics, Garibaldi's unifying zeal and advocacy for subjugated peoples everywhere offer an exemplary lesson in transnational political idealism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translation is always a text about a text and hence it is a metatext. We translate by intuition. There is no 'Science of translating' though there are scientific theories of translation. In this book, the author has made a thorough analysis of various aspects of translation studies-both in the east and the west. Apart from making a background study of translation, he has analysed translation as creative writing, as linguistic bridge-building and as nation building. The book provides an authoritative steer to key approaches in translation studies. Each chapter gives an in-depth account of theoretical concepts, issues and studies. This is an intense and well researched book on translation studies in our country

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/UBrazilF/ Google+ page: http://plus.google.com/111085952888311459023/ This book is aimed to provide foreigners with a head start to understand Brazil and Brazilians. It’s not a “behavioral” book, nor an encyclopedia entry (that you would find in Wikipedia) or an atlas section. It’s a compilation of the information that you would likely want to know if moving to Brazil, making business or just before a tourism trip. When foreigners think about Brazil, usually what comes to mind is one or more of the following: Rio de Janeiro, Samba, Carnival parades, Christ the Redeemer, beaches, Bossa Nova and the Girl of Ipanema, huge forests, women in bikinis, UFC fighters, soccer players, feijoada and Havaianas flip-flops. But Brazil is much more than these. This book will help you get past those "selling" images and get to know a little bit more about the real country and its people, both the bright and dark sides. I’m sure that you’ll find discovering more about Brazil an interesting journey, while I’m sure someone will be amazed to find out that in Brazil people don’t speak Spanish and the capital is not Buenos Aires. This text intends to be concise and short, with the most important and interesting points, at the same time trying to be lightly funny and entertaining (but don’t expect it to be hilarious). Many Brazilians may learn a thing or two about their own country reading this book as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume analyzes innovative forms of media and music (art installations, television commercials, photography, films, songs, telenovelas) to examine the performance of migration in contemporary culture. Though migration studies and media studies are ostensibly different fields, this transnational collection of essays addresses how their interconnection has shaped our understanding of the paradigms through which we think about migration, ethnicity, nation, and the transnational. Cultural representations intervene in collective beliefs. Art and media clearly influence the ways the experience of migration is articulated and recalled, intervening in individual perceptions as well as public policy. To understand the connection between migration and diverse media, the authors examine how migration is represented in film, television, music, and art, but also how media shape the ways in which host country and homeland are imagined. Among the topics considered are new mediated forms for representing migration, widening the perspective on the ways these representations may be analyzed; readings of enactments of memory in trans- and inter-disciplinary ways; and discussions of globalization and transnationalism, inviting us to rethink traditional borders in respect to migration, nation states, as well as disciplines.
