O cinema como imagem ou contra-imagem, como narrativa ou
contra-narrativa da vida real nao ficou indiferente as
movimentacoes e ondas migratorias globais. Nas ultimas decadas, as
representacoes de experiencias migrantes e diasporicas tem
adquirido uma posicao relevante nas narrativas cinematograficas.
Este livro propoe uma aproximacao teorica ao conceito do assim
chamado cinema de migracao. Alem disso, acompanha as reflexoes a
respeito de alguns dos exemplos mais notaveis do cinema de migracao
em lingua portuguesa, analisando diversos exemplos de Portugal,
Brasil, Mocambique, Angola e Cabo Verde. Finalmente, discutem-se
novas tendencias como o cinema de migracao poliglota, os seus
espacos intermitentes e paisagens faladas para desembocar na
constatacao que sao as fronteiras que nos fazem.

Gaius Ofonius Tigellinus, Sproessling eines sizilianischen Vaters,
Verbannter, Pferdezuchter, politischer Emporkoemmling und seit 62
n. Chr. Gardeprafekt unter Kaiser Nero (54-68 n. Chr.), gilt nach
Sueton und Tacitus als der Inbegriff eines verkommenen und
boesartigen Machtmenschen, der uber Jahre hinweg als enger Freund,
erster Berater und willfahriger Handlanger, unheiligen Einfluss auf
Nero und dessen Entscheidungen ausubte. So gelegen ist sein Name
untrennbar mit den zahlreichen blutigen Ereignissen der neronischen
Epoche verbunden. Der Autor stellt Ofonius Tigellinus in den
Mittelpunkt der Abhandlung und lasst anhand der uberlieferten
Quellen seine Lebensgeschichte und sein Wirken lebendig werden.
Dabei spannt sich der erzahlerische Bogen uber sechs roemische
"Imperatores Romani", von Tiberius bis zu seinem unruhmlichen Ende
unter Kaiser Otho.
Sinne und Emotion bilden das Prisma jeder Selbst- und Welterfahrung
und pragen die im Individuum verankerte Subjektivitat. Der
russische Emigrationsschriftsteller Gajto Gazdanov (1903-1971)
ruckt Wahrnehmungen so stark in den Vordergrund, dass die Handlung
oft von einem UEbermass an Deskription in den Hintergrund gedrangt
wird. Diese Studie beleuchtet Motive sinnlicher und emotionaler
Erfahrung unter Berucksichtigung interdisziplinarer Konzepte aus
Psychologie, Psychoanalyse, Philosophie und den Naturwissenschaften
und fragt nach der Systematik ihrer motivischen Reprasentation,
ihrer Wechselbeziehung sowie eines davon abzuleitenden Weltbilds.
Das Forschungsfeld eroeffnet Zugang zu Mechanismen der empirischen
Realitat, was auch fur andere Disziplinen neue Perspektiven und
Erkenntnisse verspricht.

This compact but complete guide shows that less is more—with
fewer extraneous details getting in the way of students trying to
learn on the run, it allows them to focus on the most important
principles of effective technical communication. The Concise Guide
takes a rhetorical approach to technical communication; instead of
setting up a list of rules that you should apply uniformly to all
writing situations, it introduces students to the bigger picture of
how the words they write can affect the people intended to use
them. Assignments and exercises are integrated throughout to
reinforce and test knowledge.
'these letters thus far have remained unsent, i want you to change

heartbreak, mental health and self-discovery. With beautiful line
illustrations and over 100 poems written in the form of
confessional letters addressed to the most influential figures in
your life: Your younger self Your future self Your lover Your body
Your family and more Take the ultimate step. Read, rip out, burn or
send the letters out into the world. Write your own and share them
with the people in your life. Just don't hold back!
Write Here is designed to teach students essential reading and
writing skills, using media examples to help explain academic
concepts and provide opportunities for practice. It is adaptable;
because it covers the basics of reading, writing, and the modes of
writing, it is appropriate to use in developmental composition
classrooms. However, it also covers such topics as logical
fallacies, rhetoric, timed writing, academic writing, source
integration, and MLA/APA documentation, making it appropriate for a
first-year or 'stretch' composition course. Many beginning writing
students are underprepared and feel that writing just 'isn't for
them.' The authors hope to dispel that myth by using media examples
and a conversational tone to introduce and teach the material.
Write Here provides examples that are interesting to students,
while allowing them to connect to the subject matter on a more
personal level - additionally, the process of analyzing the media
helps students sharpen their reading, writing, and critical
thinking skills.

Literacy. Numeracy. Oracy?
For generations our education system has been built on the twin pillars
of literacy and numeracy. But what if a third – and equally vital –
pillar has been ignored? Enter oracy: communicating effectively,
articulating ideas and engaging with others through spoken language.
In this persuasive and powerful manifesto, Neil Mercer calls for oracy,
as a subject and a set of skills, to have equal footing alongside
literacy and numeracy. Oracy can and must be taught, so that students
leave school not only as readers and writers, but as accomplished
speakers and listeners. Mercer incisively shows how oracy education has
nothing to do with speaking ‘proper’, or eliminating style, slang and
regional accents, but instead about empowering people to find and
express their own voice. In fact, oracy is a key driver of cognitive
development, academic attainment and social mobility – helping every
young person to achieve their potential and challenge the inequalities
of language and power.
Oracy: The Transformative Power of Finding Your Voice is the first book
to bring this important step change in educational and social thinking
to a wider audience. But it is also practical: a guide to how to use
talk to teach critical thinking and find creative solutions to life’s
burning issues. After all, the impact of oracy doesn’t stop at the
school gates: we all need oracy skills for our personal relationships,
professional networks and social lives.
