Nas décadas de 1950 e 1960, a cantora brasileira Leny Eversong se tornou um fenômeno: foram mais de 700 shows entre cidades como Los Angeles, Nova York, Las Vegas, Paris e grandes capitais das Américas Central e do Sul. Na TV dos EUA, chegou a dividir uma noite do programa Ed Sullivan Show com o, então, jovem astro Elvis Presley. Aqui no Brasil, com mais de 15 discos lançados, atuou em filmes, festivais, novela, teatro e rádio – chegando a ter um programa próprio de televisão (Quadra de Sete, na TV Record, em 1966). E, apesar desse alcance de sua música, é previsível a resposta para a pergunta: quem, hoje, já ouviu ao menos falar de Leny Eversong? O livro de Rodrigo Faour dá conta de apresentar esse completo e surpreendente apagamento da cantora nascida na cidade de Santos (SP) da memória do país. À medida em que apresenta sua trajetória por gravadoras, emissoras e palcos, Faour busca hipóteses a esse total esquecimento de Leny Eversong. Para ele, Leny, que mantinha repertório com músicas predominantemente em inglês, francês e espanhol, foi alvo de um sentimento nacionalista do período, que marcava o gosto e a crítica musical. Por outro lado, e como maior linha de força do livro, Faour aponta que Leny Eversong nunca se enquadrou nos padrões de beleza e sensualidade imposto a artistas do sexo feminino. Era uma mulher gorda e de voz que alcançava escalas que iam de mezzo soprano até a voz masculina de barítono. Além de inúmeras entrevistas com artistas contemporâneos de Leny, o livro reúne vasto material fotográfico e fac-símiles de matérias publicadas na imprensa da época. Grande parte do acervo pertencia à própria Leny Eversong e foi doado ao autor pelo filho da cantora, um dos entrevistados no livro. A obra traz ainda, na parte final, entrevistas com cantoras que sofreram resistências em suas carreiras por parecerem, igualmente, fora dos padrões de beleza, como Fafá de Belém e MC Carol. Bem resumido: um livro sobre a trajetória da cantora Leny Eversong e o modo como sua recente e rica história, de modo inacreditável, terminou apagada.

In Bodies That Matter, Judith Butler further develops her distinctive theory of gender by examining the workings of power at the most "material" dimensions of sex and sexuality. Deepening the inquiries she began in Gender Trouble, Butler offers an original reformulation of the materiality of bodies, examining how the power of heterosexual hegemony forms the "matter" of bodies, sex, and gender. Butler argues that power operates to constrain "sex" from the start, delimiting what counts as a viable sex. She offers a clarification of the notion of "performativity" introduced in Gender Trouble and explores the meaning of a citational politics. The text includes readings of Plato, Irigaray, Lacan, and Freud on the formation of materiality and bodily boundaries; "Paris is Burning," Nella Larsen's "Passing," and short stories by Willa Cather; along with a reconsideration of "performativity" and politics in feminist, queer, and radical democratic theory.

The Cure emerged in the post-punk 70s and defied all expectations to launch a marathon career marked by hit records and a string of sell-out arena shows. In 2004, after numerous personnel changes, the band delivered their Greatest Hits album in 2004.This biography traces the roots in middle-class Crawley, Sussex and tracks their gradual rise, revealing how their first major album Pornography, almost ended the band well before their multi-platinum career began. It also documents Smith's escape into the Siouxsie & The Banshees camp during the Eighties, his experimentation with every drug ('bar smack'). His reluctance to return to The Cure which would eventually lead to them becoming superstars, not only on both sides of the Atlantic but all around the globe.Jeff Apter is an Australian-based music writer, who had been reporting on popular culture for the past 15 years. He spent five years as the Music Editor at Australian Rolling Stone.

The biography of Franz Stangl, commandant of the Treblinka extermination camp - a classic and utterly compelling study of evil Only four men commanded Nazi extermination (as opposed to concentration) camps. Franz Stangl was one of the. Gitta Sereny's investigation of this man's mind, and of the influences which shaped him, has become a classic. Stangl commanded Treblinka and was found guilty of co-responsibility for the slaughter there of at least 900, 000 people. Sereny, after weeks of talk with him and months of further research, shows us this man as he saw himself, and 'as he was seen by many others, including his wife. To horrify is not Sereny's aim, though horror is inevitable. She is seeking an answer to the question which beggars reason: How were human beings turned into instruments of such overwhelming evil? Gitta Sereny is of Hungarian-Austrian extraction and is trilingual in English, French and German. During the Second World War she became a social worker, caring for war-damaged children in France. She gave hundreds of lectures in schools and colleges in America and, when the war ended, she worked as a Child Welfare Officer in UNRRA displaced persons' camps in Germany. In 1949 she married the American Vogue photographer Don Honeyman and settled in London, where they brought up a son and a daughter and where she began her career as a journalist. Her journalistic work was of great variety but focussed particularly on the Third Reich and troubled children. She wrote mainly for the Daily Telegraph Magazine, the Sunday Times, The Times, the Independent and the Independent on Sunday Review. She also contributed to numerous newspapers and magazines around the world. Her books include: The Medallion, a novel; The Invisible Children, on child prostitution; Into That Darkness; and a biographical examination of Albert Speer. Gitta Sereny died in June 2012

Samba is Brazil's "national rhythm," the foremost symbol of its culture and nationhood. To the outsider, samba and the famous pre-Lenten carnival of which it is the centerpiece seem to showcase the country's African heritage. Within Brazil, however, samba symbolizes the racial and cultural mixture that, since the 1930s, most Brazilians have come to believe defines their unique national identity. But how did Brazil become "the Kingdom of Samba" only a few decades after abolishing slavery in 1888? Typically, samba is represented as having changed spontaneously, mysteriously, from a "repressed" music of the marginal and impoverished to a national symbol cherished by all Brazilians. Here, however, Hermano Vianna shows that the nationalization of samba actually rested on a long history of relations between different social groups--poor and rich, weak and powerful--often working at cross-purposes to one another. A fascinating exploration of the "invention of tradition," The Mystery of Samba is an excellent introduction to Brazil's ongoing conversation on race, popular culture, and national identity.

Ask anyone who has owned a pet and they’ll assure you that, yes, animals have personalities. And science is beginning to agree. Researchers have demonstrated that both domesticated and nondomesticated animals—from invertebrates to monkeys and apes—behave in consistently different ways, meeting the criteria for what many define as personality. But why the differences, and how are personalities shaped by genes and environment? How did they evolve? The essays in Animal Personalities reveal that there is much to learn from our furred and feathered friends. The study of animal personality is one of the fastest-growing areas of research in behavioral and evolutionary biology. Here Claudio Carere and Dario Maestripieri, along with a host of scholars from fields as diverse as ecology, genetics, endocrinology, neuroscience, and psychology, provide a comprehensive overview of the current research on animal personality. Grouped into thematic sections, chapters approach the topic with empirical and theoretical material and show that to fully understand why personality exists, we must consider the evolutionary processes that give rise to personality, the ecological correlates of personality differences, and the physiological mechanisms underlying personality variation.
