This book presents the history and theoretical contributions of Brazilian geography since the late twentieth century and shows how this sphere of knowledge has been organically integrated with social and territorial issues and with social movements. The relationship between the subjects and objects of research in Brazilian geography has been centred on the understanding and transformation of realities marked by injustice and inequality. Against this backdrop, the geography of the country has developed by integrating, relating to, and forming part of those realities as it headed out into the streets. Brazilian geography continues to hold theoretical debate in high regard as a result of the influence of critical theory. This book thus covers the theoretical approaches in Brazilian geography, its different lines of research, and above all its character as manifested in culture and society.

In a novella which remains highly controversial to this day, Conrad explores the relations between Africa and Europe. On the surface, this is a horrifying tale of colonial exploitation. The narrator, Marlowe journeys on business deep into the heart of Africa. But there he encounters Kurtz, an idealist apparently crazed and depraved by his power over the natives, and the meeting prompts Marlowe to reflect on the darkness at the heart of all men. This short but complex and often ambiguous story, which has been the basis of several films and plays, continues to provoke interpretation and discussion. Heart of Darkness grew out of a journey Joseph Conrad took up the Congo River; the verisimilitude that the great novelist thereby brought to his most famous tale everywhere enhances its dense and shattering power. Apparently a sailor’s yarn, it is in fact a grim parody of the adventure story, in which the narrator, Marlow, travels deep into the heart of the Congo where he encounters the crazed idealist Kurtz and discovers that the relative values of the civilized and the primitive are not what they seem. Heart of Darkness is a model of economic storytelling, an indictment of the inner and outer turmoil caused by the European imperial misadventure, and a piercing account of the fragility of the human soul.

Uma das mais importantes obras da literatura mundial e inspiração para o filme Apocalypse Now, Coração das Trevas tem nova tradução, de José Rubens Siqueira, 60 ilustrações do artista plástico Cláudio Dantas e textos extra de Ana Maria Bahiana e Christian Dunker. "Não quero aborrecer muito vocês com o que aconteceu comigo.", diz o marinheiro Marlow aos colegas de navegação enquanto anoitece no Tâmisa. Ele começa então a relatar sua experiência no período em que esteve à frente de um barco a vapor em um rio na África. Ao chegar no Congo, Marlow conta ter recebido a missão de resgatar Kurtz, um brilhante comerciante que aparentemente havia perdido a sanidade. A viagem rio acima em busca desse misterioso homem é acompanhada de uma jornada pessoal para dentro das trevas e da loucura que habitam dentro de si. A história de Marlow e Kurtz já foi adaptada diversas vezes para outras mídias — cinema, ópera, e até para rádio, pelas mãos de Orson Welles. Mas sua adaptação mais famosa é o filme Apocalyse Now, de Francis Ford Coppola, que transpõe a narrativa do colonialismo africano para a guerra do vietnã. Esta nova edição conta com ilustrações de Cláudio Dantas, textos de Ana Maria Bahiana e Christian Dunker e uma tradução inédita do renomado tradutor José Rubens Siqueira, responsável por verter para a língua portuguesa livros como Desonra, de J.M. Coetzee e Grandes Esperanças, de Charles Dickens. ​.

Heart of Darkness, a novel by Joseph Conrad, was originally a three-part series in Blackwood's Magazine in 1899. It is a story within a story, following a character named Charlie Marlow, who recounts his adventure to a group of men onboard an anchored ship. The story told is of his early life as a ferry boat captain. Although his job was to transport ivory downriver, Charlie develops an interest in investing an ivory procurement agent, Kurtz, who is employed by the government. Preceded by his reputation as a brilliant emissary of progress, Kurtz has now established himself as a god among the natives in "one of the darkest places on earth." Marlow suspects something else of Kurtz: he has gone mad. A reflection on corruptive European colonialism and a journey into the nightmare psyche of one of the corrupted, Heart of Darkness is considered one of the most influential works ever written.
