Download or read book The Ox and the Slave written by Kazadi wa Mukuna and published by Diasporic Africa Press. This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary study sheds light on the communal creative process of music and discusses the process of music change in Bumba-meu-Boi, and provides an example of exo-semantic analysis in the quest for the truth of this folk drama in Brazil. It argues that Bumba-meu-Boi sheds light on eighteenth century Brazil and reveals existing levels of interaction between classes (master-slave, oppressor-oppressed) on sugar cane plantations and mills. A sociologist perspective demonstrates that the structure of the Bumba-meu-Boi reflects a similar network of relations, as they exist in communities where it was and still is performed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Tradição da Liberdade - Tomo II é um contributo importante para compreender a diversidade que compõe o liberalismo, colocando o leitor em contacto com obras de referência de quatro autores europeus: os franceses Étienne de La Boétie (Discurso sobre a Servidão Voluntária) e Benjamin Constant (Da Liberdade dos Antigos Comparada à dos Modernos), o alemão Wilhelm von Humboldt (Os Limites da Acção do Estado) e o escocês Adam Smith (Riqueza das Nações). À excepção de La Boétie, que viveu no século XVI, todos viveram e escreveram em finais do século XVIII, inícios do século XIX – a fervilhante era da Declaração da Independência dos Estados Unidos da América (1776), da Revolução Francesa (1789) e do Iluminismo –, marcando de forma clara o pensamento da sua época e das seguintes. Um livro que, além de resumir quatro grandes obras do passado, mostra os muitos ensinamentos que elas têm para quem vive na Europa actual e acredita que o futuro passa por construir uma União Europeia ao serviço da liberdade, contra os retrocessos proteccionistas e as pulsões nacionalistas.
Download or read book The Brazilian Voter written by Kurt Von Mettenheim and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2010-11-23 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic transition from military to civilian rule in Brazil between 1974 and 1985 raises critical questions about voters, competitive party politics, and democracy at the end of the twentieth century. This book argues that whereas military government stifled democratic activity, public opinion quickly revived when the military liberalized electoral politics in 1974. Voters rapidly aligned themselves with parties for and against military government, acquired new views on major issues, judged leaders by their performance and policies, and grounded their beliefs in concepts of social justice. Kurt von Mettenheim examines how Brazilian voters make choices and cast their ballots runs counter to long-held liberal theories about how democracy works.

Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Anthropological Ritual Studies written by Pamela J. Stewart and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ritual Studies have achieved prominence since the 1980s, when interest in ritual as an object of inquiry was established, bridging over a number of humanities and social science disciplines. Both connected with religious studies and independent of it; overlapping with social and cultural anthropology, but also with history; related to science and health practices and ranging across the life course to education, Ritual Studies has come to encompass studies of change and dynamism in social life. Rituals are determinate in form, but not static. They enunciate distinctive social values within specific contexts that frame them; and they relate to the wider concerns and issues of their practitioners. Due to this broad and wide-ranging scope, it is often difficult to find a single resource on Ritual Studies, and even more so to find one which moves beyond the beginnings of anthropological theorizing to grapple with the present-day contexts of ritual. Bringing together recent ethnographies of ritual practice and ritualization from across the globe, this Handbook provides case study of ritual in the light of Emotion and Cognition, Identity, Religious Power, Performance and Literature, Ecology and Ecological Disaster, Media, and other topics. While each chapter provides a deep ethnography of a specific society, ritual, or ritualized practice, each also engages with current theoretical and substantive approaches to the relevant topic. The scholars collected here provide original synoptic and indicative pieces as guideposts and pathways through the complex, varied and cross-disciplinary, and vast landscape of scholarship that constitutes Ritual Studies today and points to developments in the future.
Download or read book Junk to Gold written by Willis Johnson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Quando olho para traz, penso que meu sucesso é em parte devido as lições que meu pai me ensinou e em parte a mão de Deus me guiando no caminho. Também penso que boa parte disso tem a ver com o fato de que nunca pensei que o que estava fazendo poderia não funcionar. Nunca pensei que não poderia fazer. Alguns podem chamar isso de confiança. Alguns também podem pensar que esse tipo de otimismo cego vem da ignorância. Mas eu simplesmente nunca deixei a possibilidade de fracasso entrar na minha mente. E eu acredito que quando você pode saltar para algo de todo coração você pode fazer coisas incríveis pois não há medo que te impeça.” – Willis Johnson
