A Humanidade rendeu-se à vaidade: o berço natural está ame¬açado; malgrado as contas douradas que o enfeitam assiste-se ao tsunami da negridão. Contradição? Todavia, é neste xadrez que se joga a Vida, desta vez na Indonésia, no lugar onde os portugueses aportaram no início do século XVII. José Mata, o nosso polícia/ecologista, não se conformou com a última má notícia ambiental - o desaparecimento das abelhas - e propôs uma reação imediata. Não tanto pelo que já se sabia ser uma ameaça e estava a ser motivo de acordo na última cimeira do clima realizada na Coude¬laria de Alter do Chão - a queima imparável da floresta no Sudo¬ete Asiático com o fim de se intensificar a produção de óleo de palma - mas pelas surpreendentes informações que colhera por portas travessas, conseguiu um aliado que se mostrou decisivo: o Presidente da República. Uma determinante surpresa, porém, viria a revelar-se mais tarde. Em o " O Dom de Yogyakarta", assiste-se à defesa do mundo que os portugueses tornaram pequeno: foram e serão decisivas as gestas dos heróis que sobrevivem no "universo dos puros''. E nesse, pulsa tanto de amor como de missionação, tanto se espera de braveza como de ternura, tanto cabe a morte como a redenção.

Este texto parte de uma viagem que o escritor fez, entre 8 e 29 de Abril de 2001, a convite da Dra. Helena Vaz da Silva, presidente da direcção do Centro Nacional de Cultura: «percursos em busca da presença portuguesa pelo mundo». Partindo do Prefácio de Guilherme d Oliveira Martins, como se pode ler neste texto de José Eduardo Agualusa, «mais importante do que as invocações históricas, e do que as rememorações do passado, o que deve é entender-se o país e as gentes dos dias de hoje. De nada valeria a recordação da História sem uma interrogação efectiva (e uma análise) sobre o presente. Recusaríamos as razões do diálogo espiritual e de culturas se nos satisfizéssemos com o passado esquecendo que os mortos devem enterrar os seus mortos». Este é um belíssimo livro onde Agualusa nos leva a redescobrir uma região a que os portugueses estão unidos por muitas antigas raízes - a presença portuguesa foi efectiva por cerca de 150 anos (1512 a 1769) e a ligação a Timor manteve-se até ao século XX.

Few challenges to the modern dream of democratic citizenship appear greater than the presence of severe ethnic, religious, and linguistic divisions in society. With their diverse religions and ethnic communities, the Southeast Asian countries of Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia have grappled with this problem since achieving independence after World War II. Each country has on occasion been torn by violence over the proper terms for accommodating pluralism. Until the Asian economic crisis of 1997, however, these nations also enjoyed one of the most sustained economic expansions the non-Western world has ever seen. This timely volume brings together fifteen leading specialists of the region to consider the impact of two generations of nation-building and market-making on pluralism and citizenship in these deeply divided Asian societies. Examining the new face of pluralism from the perspective of markets, politics, gender, and religion, the studies show that each country has developed a strikingly different response to the challenges of citizenship and diversity. The contributors, most of whom come Southeast Asia, pay particular attention to the tension between state and societal approaches to citizenship. They suggest that the achievement of an effectively participatory public sphere in these countries will depend not only on the presence of an independent "civil society," but on a synergy of state and society that nurtures a public culture capable of mediating ethnic, religious, and gender divides. The Politics of Multiculturalism will be of special interest to students of Southeast Asian history and society, anthropologists grappling with questions of citizenship and culture, political scientists studying democracy across cultures, and all readers concerned with the prospects for civility and tolerance in a multicultural world.

Performing Faith written by Marzanna Poplawska and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2020-02-10 with Music categories.
This book is a study of music inculturation in Indonesia. It shows how religious expression can be made relevant in an indigenous context and how grassroots Christianity is being realized by means of music. Through the discussion of indigenous expressions of Christianity, the book presents multiple ways in which Indonesians reiterate their identity through music by creatively forging Christian and indigenous elements. This study moves beyond the discussion (and charge) of syncretism, showing that the inclusion of local cultural manifestations is an answer to creating a truly indigenous Christian expression. Marzanna Poplawska, while telling the story of Indonesian Christians and the multiple ways in which they live Christianity through music, emphasizes the creative energy and agency of local people. In their practices she finds optimism for the continuing existence of many traditional genres and styles. Indonesian Christians perform their Christian faith through music, dance, and theater, generating innovative cultural products that enrich the global Christian heritage. The book is addressed to a broad spectrum of readers: scholars from a variety of disciplines – music, religion, anthropology, especially those interested in interactions between Christianity and indigenous cultures; general music lovers and World Music enthusiasts eager to discover musics outside of European realm; as well as Christian believers, church musicians, and choir directors curious to learn about Christian music beyond Euro-American context. Students of religion, sacred music, (ethno)musicology, theater, and dance will also benefit from learning about a variety of indigenous arts employed in Christian churches in Indonesia.

The world’s bestselling travel book is back in a more informative, more experiential, more budget-friendly full-color edition. A #1 New York Times bestseller, 1,000 Places reinvented the idea of travel book as both wish list and practical guide. As Newsweek wrote, it “tells you what’s beautiful, what’s fun, and what’s just unforgettable— everywhere on earth.” And now the best is better. There are 600 full-color photographs. Over 200 entirely new entries, including visits to 28 countries like Lebanon, Croatia, Estonia, and Nicaragua, that were not in the original edition. There is an emphasis on experiences: an entry covers not just Positano or Ravello, but the full 30-mile stretch along the Amalfi Coast. Every entry from the original edition has been readdressed, rewritten, and made fuller, with more suggestions for places to stay, restaurants to visit, festivals to check out. And throughout, the book is more budget-conscious, starred restaurants and historic hotels such as the Ritz, but also moderately priced gems that don’t compromise on atmosphere or charm. The world is calling. Time to answer.

A Certain Age is an unconventional, evocative work of history and a moving reflection on memory, modernity, space, time, and the limitations of traditional historical narratives. Rudolf Mrázek visited Indonesia throughout the 1990s, recording lengthy interviews with elderly intellectuals in and around Jakarta. With few exceptions, they were part of an urban elite born under colonial rule and educated at Dutch schools. From the early twentieth century, through the late colonial era, the national revolution, and well into independence after 1945, these intellectuals injected their ideas of modernity, progress, and freedom into local and national discussion. When Mrázek began his interviews, he expected to discuss phenomena such as the transition from colonialism to postcolonialism. His interviewees, however, wanted to share more personal recollections. Mrázek illuminates their stories of the past with evocative depictions of their late-twentieth-century surroundings. He brings to bear insights from thinkers including Walter Benjamin, Bertold Brecht, Le Corbusier, and Marcel Proust, and from his youth in Prague, another metropolis with its own experience of passages and revolution. Architectural and spatial tropes organize the book. Thresholds, windowsills, and sidewalks come to seem more apt as descriptors of historical transitions than colonial and postcolonial, or modern and postmodern. Asphalt roads, homes, classrooms, fences, and windows organize movement, perceptions, and selves in relation to others. A Certain Age is a portal into questions about how the past informs the present and how historical accounts are inevitably partial and incomplete.
