View Rights PortalNeue Essays von einer der wichtigsten intellektuellen Stimmen der Gegenwart. Leslie Jamison schreibt über die Grenzenlosigkeit unserer Sehnsucht und das Wesen unserer Obsessionen, wie nur sie es kann: mit großer emotionaler Beteiligung, luzider Klarheit und unerschütterlichem Einfühlungsvermögen. In ihrem neuen Buch erkundet Leslie Jamison die Tiefen von Verlangen, Intimität und Obsession und testet dabei auch die Grenzen ihrer eigenen Offenheit und ihres Mitgefühls für andere aus. Wie kann sie empathisch über menschliche Erfahrung schreiben, ohne ihre kritische Distanz zu verlieren? Wie ihr Beteiligtsein verarbeiten, ohne der Selbstbezogenheit zu erliegen? In Essays über so unterschiedliche Themen wie den »einsamsten Wal der Welt«, kindliche Erinnerungen an frühere Leben oder die Erfahrung, eine Stiefmutter zu sein, sucht sie nach neuen, ehrlichen Möglichkeiten erzählerischer Zeugenschaft.

Cambeva's workshop is the first of four books of the collection "Presente de Vô" in partnership with Grupo Ponto de Partida. The book is a mixture of colours and elements that highlight the memory of the world, in which seekers of memories have the mission of bringing light and life to objects found in the travels of two characters: Zalém and Calunga. Cambeva is a restorer who, when the world lost its embrace, tried to reinvent it; he is the grandfather who mends dreams, forgotten things and lost emotions, to whom the seekers ask for help to fix something. In a magical universe, full of children, grandchildren, stories and memories of his lineage of restorers, when faced with this request for restoration, he makes room to bring back an emblematic figure who can no longer sing. A story about memories, care and affection...
Humans, who hold the power and exercise it for their own benefit, do not see the other beings of that universe. The invisibility and the political and social relations of micro and macro powers are intertwined in the maximum of coexistence and coexistence between different beings in a common territory.
The name of this book is Oikoá, which means life in the language of the Guarani Mbya people. This name was chosen because the indigenous peoples have been the guardians of life on planet Earth: it is in their territories that there are more types of trees and plants, animals, fish, birds, insects, and where the rivers and forests are best preserved.
Coexistence, harmony, respect, existence and resistance are central themes of the book Pode me chamar de Dodô, written by Daniella Michelin and illustrated by Elisa Carareto.
