A arte da brevidade
Virginia Woolf escreveu poucos contos, muitos deles meros esboços, exercícios, ensaios de escrita. Mas em alguns estão concentradas características de seus romances mais experimentais: a rejeição do realismo literário, o uso de técnicas narrativas pouco ortodoxas, a experimentação com a estrutura e a sintaxe. Em edição bilíngue e com acabamento de luxo, a presente coletânea reúne os melhores desses contos. "O legado" pertence ao conjunto dos seus contos mais convencionais, mas serve de contraste para melhor apreciação das ousadas técnicas que caracterizam os outros quatro aqui incluídos – "A marca na parede", "Objetos sólidos", "A dama no espelho" e "Kew Gardens".
Os mortos (Edição Bilíngue)
Os mortos é uma história de Natal. De música, dança e mesa farta. É uma história sobre os laços de família e de amizade. Suas bênçãos e suas danações. Suas alegrias e seus estorvos. Seus prazeres e suas desgraças. É também uma história de amor: uma história de amores. Das recordações de um amor do passado: fugaz, longínquo e perdido. Das lembranças dos momentos de ternura e afeto de uma vida em comum: banais e instantâneos. E contudo: singulares e eternos. É a história de um desejo mortal de posse e intimidade. Mas também de frustração, fúria e fracasso. De aproximação e fuga, de ataque e rendição. Os mortos é uma história sobre os vivos. E sobre os que vão morrer. E os que já morreram. É uma história sobre a morte. E sobre os vivos e os mortos. É uma história sobre a vida.

Judith Butler beyond gender
Judith Butler beyond gender is philosophy in motion. There is nothing superfluous about this book. Nor is there any pretension of displaying erudition. What one will read here is political philosophy, which is philosophy itself, according to the author. She takes personal and collective mourning as an object of research and reflection. In this project, she joins Judith Butler, a philosopher who has been approaching mourning as a necessary and crucial issue for political criticism for quite some time now. We live in a time when mourning has a great meaning. The covid-19 pandemic has already caused the death of millions of people around the world, hundreds of thousands in Brazil. An immense co...
