        Tetã Tekoha

        by Nhandewa, Alexandro; Yvoty, Ana Lúcia; Silva, Débora; Zamboni, Felipe; Sabino, Jaqueline; Tupã, Rodrigo; Pyntánh, Tiago; Matias, Uerique; Jacintho, Valéria; Queiroz, Yago

        Tetã Tekoha is a cry of resistance from ten young Guarani indigenous people, students at the State University of Londrina (UEL). Members of the Indigenous Word project, which sought to bring together and develop their authorship and their role, the students present first-person reports, with their own style - and a lot of emotion - in a search for affirmation of identity, ancestry and identification with both worlds: village and the city. From their experience at the university, where they study to deepen knowledge that may be useful to their people and question the invisibility and imposition of Western culture as unique, they want to show that they move between the worlds without abandoning their essence.

      • Escritas Diversas do Eu

        by Leila de Aguiar Costa (Org.), Jéssica Aline Ferreira Felix (Org.)

        Escritas Diversas do Eu "Páginas comoventes, pungentes, ternas, jocosas, divertidas, alegres, sofridas, plenas dos mais variados afetos: o que se lerá nesse volume são os frutos doces ou amargos de uma experiência literária a que se dedicaram jovens entusiastas, estudantes de Letras, desejosos de se deixarem habitar pela linguagem, de se inclinarem ao acontecimento poético e, por isso mesmo, de oferecerem ao leitor - e a ele se des-cobrirem - vidas subjetivas que só têm razão de ser porque se locam em contato com o Outro. Fica, então, aqui, o convite ao encontro!" (Leila de Aguiar Costa)

        Práticas lúdicas na formação vocal em teatro

        by Pereira, Eugênio Tadeu

        A formação vocal do estudante de teatro e, por extensão, a exploração dos recursos vocais de todos os que se interessam pelas artes da cena e pela educação estética e artística vêm à tona neste trabalho. Elementos centrais no fazer teatral, a escuta de si e do outro, a apropriação de parâmetros musicais, a relação entre o corpo como um todo e a emissão da voz são aqui focalizados detalhada e cuidadosamente. De modo original, a incerteza intrínseca ao lúdico é enfatizada pelo autor como caminho fértil para conduzir essa aprendizagem. O jogo tradicional, patrimônio cultural transmitido oralmente e partilhado pelas diferentes gerações constitui nesta obra o principal vetor da ampliação das capacidades vocais. A disponibilidade para o jogo abre as portas para a descoberta das possibilidades vocais de todos aqueles que se dispuserem a essa aventura.

        AMAZON MOUTH

        Society and culture in Dalcidio Jurandir

        by Willi Bolle

        This book presents an overview of Amazonian history and analyzes the novel Cycle of the Far North, by Dalcidio Jurandir, a work that represents the social inequality and exclusion inherent to Amazonian society. Willi Bolle rescues the work of this important, albeit unknown, author, emphasizing Dalcidio Jurandir’s contribution to our understanding of Amazonian culture. In his work, Jurandir describes the quotidian of those living in the periphery of society, and advocates, quite emphatically, quality education for the poor. He also registers the social dialect of the inhabitants of the Amazon, in a document of the cultural memory of the region.
