by Percival Tirapeli (author)
The fruit of an extensive research by Professor Percival Tirapeli, this richly illustrated work covers three centuries of Colonial and Baroque art, and is divided in three parts: “Colonial Urbanism”, “Ecclesiastical Architecture” and “Sacred Art – Furniture and Ornamentation”. “Colonial Urbanism” explains the differences and approximations of the layout and planned urbanism between Hispano-American and Portuguese-Brazilian cities. “Ecclesiastical Architecture” analyzes the cathedrals of the viceroyalties, the audiences and the Brazilian sees. The section “Sacred Art – Furniture and Ornamentation” completes the analysis of churches, examining their retable façades, the furniture of the altars and their ornamental complements, such as sculptures and paintings.

September 2017Every food has a history
by Joana Monteleone
A delicious piece of work. Several essays, all of them told with pleasure of a historian who, at this moment, is not making History, but telling stories. Such storytelling, however, demands culture and talent, and Joana has extra talent and culture: she is a cook, that is, a first-rate storyeller, who moves through several times and through several dishes. The book, indicated for readers of any age, shows how much eacha meal we make is full of stories to be told and to tell us.

November 2020Epaminondas Goiabeira & the Hapiness Machine
by Júlio Emílio Braz
Julio Emilio Braz brings us a story where time is the preponderant element: the past dialogues with the more-than-perfect past tense. And, in this confluence of times, the Spanish flu comes, a more striking plague that plagued humanity in the last century. Lightly, but at the same time dense, Júlio brings strong themes such as the loss of loved ones and new affectionate relationships. The graphic design is by Raquel Matsushita, who already brings some of the gear of this time machine to the cover. Finalist book AEI-LIJ Literature Award.
