Um livro intimista de uma das mais respeitadas e reconhecidas jornalistas portuguesas.Partindo de pedaços da sua vida pessoal e profissional, Judite Sousa reflecte, neste livro, sobre a nossa existencia em sociedade, sobre a forma como comunicamos, como agimos, como evoluimos.Ao longo da vida, passamos por experiencias que nos vo marcar, que vo definir a nossa maneira de estar, de pensar e, no limite, de agir. Guardamos o que nos foi acontecendo de bom e de mau.

Em rigor, ninguem pode dizer que esta preparado para as maiores adversidades: a decepço, o fracasso ou a morte.A vida e uma aprendizagem permanente e, neste livro, Judite Sousa fala sobre a Vida, tal como a entende e tal como a vive ate hoje.

Until 2015, Pradeep Sebastian was a contented bibliophile, quite far from the serious book collector anxiously checking his email alerts. Things, however, took a dramatic turn when he chanced upon fine press books - printed on a handpress, from metal type pressed into dampened handmade paper, the tactility and typographic beauty of letterpress books instantly captivated him. There was no looking back.In absorbing prose, the author retraces his fulfilling journey of collecting fine books online, his new-found love for modern calligraphic and illuminated manuscripts, and his discovery of the masters of bookmaking - be it the cloistered nuns who printed impeccable fine press books, or the famous printer who lived in a one-room apartment at a YMCA with his small handpress tucked under his bed. Peppered with vivid anecdotes and delightful conversations, The Book Beautiful is as much about the love for fine books as it is about the pleasures of bibliophily - the camaraderie between fellow collectors and dealers, bibliographic connoisseurship, the thrill of the chase, and the joy of striking a juicy bargain.

The city on the Kerkenes Da in the high plateau of central Turkey was a new Iron Age capital, very probably Pteria. Founded in the later seventh century BC, the city was put to the torch in the mid-sixth century and then abandoned. Excavations at what we have identified as the Palatial Complex were conducted between 1999 and 2005. The stone glacis supporting the Fortified Structure at the eastern end of the complex was revealed in its entirety while the greater portion of the Monumental Entrance was uncovered. Portions of buildings within the complex were also excavated, notably one-half of the heavily burned Ashlar Building, one corner of the Audience Hall, and parts of other structures. This volume documents as fully as possible the results of those excavations with the exception of sculpture, some bearing Paleo-Phrygian inscription, already published (OIP 135). The location of the complex, its development from foundation to destruction, and its architecture are discussed and illustrated. Within the Monumental Entrance were extraordinary, unexpected, semi-iconic stone idols, and other embellishments that include stone blocks with bolsters, bases for large freestanding wooden columns, and stone plinths. Extensive use was made of iron in combination with timber-framed facades and large double-leafed doors. Objects of gold, silver, copper alloys, and iron attest to former splendor. Organization of the volume is roughly chronological, beginning with the Fortified Structure, and concluding with the Monumental Entrance. Presentation of material culture is organized with an emphasis on context. Specialist chapters report on alphabetic and nonalphabetic graffiti and masons marks, animal bones among which was found the jawbone of a dolphin, and a Byzantine-period burial. This volume provides further dramatic and surprising new evidence for the power, wealth, and sophistication of an eastward expansion of Phrygian culture exemplified by architecture, cultic imagery, Paleo-Phrygian inscriptions and graffiti, pottery, and artifacts. The brief existence of this extraordinary city, hardly more than one hundred years, together with the excellent stratigraphic context provided by the destruction level, offer an unparalleled window onto the first half of the sixth century BC on the Anatolian Plateau.

Ida B. Wells-Barnetts work on "Mob Rule in New Orleans" is a seminal examination of the dynamics of racial violence and lynching during the Jim Crow Era. Through her meticulous research and critical analysis, Wells-Barnett illuminates how mob rule functioned as an extrajudicial form of racial terror, providing the impetus to challenge oppressive structures of white supremacy.

The Freedmens Book, written by Lydia Maria Child, is an important socio-cultural phenomenon of the nineteenth century. It is a text that exemplifies the rich intellectual and discursive history of the African American experience within a predominantly white society. This work provides valuable insight into the struggles experienced by freedmen during this period and offers readers an understanding of how African American culture adapted to new circumstances while maintaining its distinct heritage.
