Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s, in the wake of the installation of Brazil's military dictatorship, artists and art collectives in Brazil used their work to critique the government and its sanitized images of Brazil, its use of torture, and its targeted persecutions. Mari Rodríguez Binnie's The São Paulo Neo-Avant Garde studies this art and its engagement with politics and mainstream institutions and traditions. During this period São Paulo was home to a growing number of high-rise office buildings, and many of the artists studied here held day jobs that gave them after-hours access to new technologies of mass production that became foundational to their work. As the author writes, "By appropriating processes such as photocopy, offset lithography, and thermal and heliographic printing, these artists simultaneously challenged the hidebound institutions of São Paulo's art world, as well as the regime's own manipulation of mass media through censorship and propaganda. The artists did so through works that, in their radical content and form, hinged on establishing alternative networks of communication both at the local and international levels." The study moves forward chronologically and thematically, with each chapter examining a particular set of works in their broader contexts"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genre studies and genre approaches to literacy instruction continue to develop in many regions and from a widening variety of approaches. Genre has provided a key to understanding the varying literacy cultures of regions, disciplines, professions, and educational settings. GENRE IN A CHANGING WORLD provides a wide-ranging sampler of the remarkable variety of current work. The twenty-four chapters in this volume, reflecting the work of scholars in Europe, Australasia, and North and South America, were selected from the over 400 presentations at SIGET IV (the Fourth International Symposium on Genre Studies) held on the campus of UNISUL in Tubarão, Santa Catarina, Brazil in August 2007—the largest gathering on genre to that date. The chapters also represent a wide variety of approaches, including rhetoric, Systemic Functional Linguistics, media and critical cultural studies, sociology, phenomenology, enunciation theory, the Geneva school of educational sequences, cognitive psychology, relevance theory, sociocultural psychology, activity theory, Gestalt psychology, and schema theory. Sections are devoted to theoretical issues, studies of genres in the professions, studies of genre and media, teaching and learning genre, and writing across the curriculum. The broad selection of material in this volume displays the full range of contemporary genre studies and sets the ground for a next generation of work.

Book excerpt: La muestra incide en la noción de lo cotidiano entendido como algo transformador y que puede resultar subversivo respecto a los valores establecidos. Las obras expuestas -videoinstalaciones, fotografías, esculturas- y los textos del catálogo hablan de lo que ocurre a diario en la esfera de lo íntimo, de los vínculos entre habitat y sujeto, del filo heterodoxo de otras formas de comportamiento, de las proteicas visiones de la alteridad étnica, del control social ejercido a través de la vigilancia del individuo, del impacto que la problemática de lo masculino y lo femenino tiene en el cuerpo y sus placeres, así como de las posibles vías para subvertir el orden marcado sobre los géneros. Propone además la reflexión histórica sobre una serie de acontecimientos decisivos en la configuración del panorama mundial de nuestra época: la crisis de mayo en el París de 1968, la aparición del sida, la caída del muro de Berlín o los sucesos del 11 de septiembre, entre otros, constituyen el imaginario de la exposición en aras de indagar su influencia más allá de cualquier norma o estereotipo.
