Book Description
The bibliographic news of Montes-Clarense literature, in recent times, has cataloged hundreds of books and other literary productions. Although not the most complete, it is considerable for the quality and quantity of works it brings to light. Thus, in this dynamic of North Minas Gerais intellectuals, we are very happy to highlight the participation of the illustrious writer, Dr. Wanderlino Arruda, who already has more than a dozen good books, disseminating knowledge and pleasure to all who enjoy a good read. This time, the author makes known to us a work that praises, with full merit, the literary world of Montes Claros and region. This is the substantial book “ Prefaces and Comments ”, where his spirit as an emeritus master stands out in the field of literary criticism and, also, in the artistic consideration of words to define the most significant works that are part of a privileged universe of writers and thinkers. It should be noted that this new book, by the eminent fellow scholar Wanderlino Arruda, presents us with a well-versed collection of chronicles and articles written in recent times, revealing the full height of his intellectual creativity. It is a record, with intensive validity, of the continuous sequence of written actions and deep concepts in the field of Semantics and Literature. Prefacing works and masterfully writing on themes related to the region, our master from Academia Montes-Clarense de Letras once again offers us an excellent opportunity to live and coexist with the refinement of words. It is at the same time the universe of fantasy and realities.

The Nazis Knew My Name
Author: Magda Hellinger
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982181249
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
The “thought-provoking…must-read” (Ariana Neumann, author of When Time Stopped) memoir by a Holocaust survivor who saved an untold number of lives at Auschwitz through everyday acts of courage and kindness—in the vein of A Bookshop in Berlin and The Nazi Officer’s Wife. In March 1942, twenty-five-year-old kindergarten teacher Magda Hellinger and nearly a thousand other young women were deported as some of the first Jews to be sent to the Auschwitz concentration camp. The SS soon discovered that by putting prisoners in charge of the day-to-day accommodation blocks, they could deflect attention away from themselves. Magda was one such prisoner selected for leadership and put in charge of hundreds of women in the notorious Experimental Block 10. She found herself constantly walking a dangerously fine line: saving lives while avoiding suspicion by the SS and risking execution. Through her inner strength and shrewd survival instincts, she was able to rise above the horror and cruelty of the camps and build pivotal relationships with the women under her watch, and even some of Auschwitz’s most notorious Nazi senior officers. Based on Magda’s personal account and completed by her daughter’s extensive research, this is “an unputdownable account of resilience and the power of compassion” (Booklist) in the face of indescribable evil.

The Birth of the Author
Author: Jeffrey F. Hamburger
Publisher: Studies and Texts
ISBN: 9780888442253
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
The images devised to accompany medieval commentaries, whether on the Bible or on classical texts, made claims to authority, even inspiration, that at times were even more forceful than those made by the texts themselves. Pictorial prefaces of the twelfth century represent commentaries of their own; they articulate and elaborate complex arguments regarding critical matters of faith. This study examines pictorial programmes in copies of Horace?s poetic works, the Glossa ordinaria, anti-heretical polemics, and Rupert of Deutz?s commentary on the Song of Songs to demonstrate the ways in which they helped to shape understandings of authorship at a critical historical moment.
