Book Description
This book contains: - 10 new illustrations by Rafael Sam- Translation and adaptation by Cleo Monteiro LobatoThe Adventures of Narizinho by Monteiro Lobato was the first children's book written by a Brazilian author. Its first version, still in the form of multiple short stories, was written in 1920. It has been rewritten and revised by the author himself, who published new versions over the years. Like the author, we're publishing yet another updated version translated by Cleo Monteiro Lobato, the author's great-granddaughter, and with illustrations by Rafael Sam. In these pages, the reader will experience Narizinho's first adventure at Picapau Amarelo Ranch, the birth of the Emília doll, and meet other characters. This is a fundamental work of Brazilian literature and now presented in a version that respects our contemporary values.

Book Description
Adaptation has always been central to Translation Studies, and, as print media becomes less and less dominant, and new media become central to communication, Adaptation is more than ever a vital area of Translation and Translation Studies. In addition, links to new digital media are examined. This is the only user-friendly textbook covering the full area of Translation, Adaptation, and Digital Media applicable to any language combination. Divided into nine chapters, it includes a wide range of texts from Brazilian culture, ensuring an ex-centric view of translation. Each chapter contains an expository section, case studies, and student activities to support learning. It emphasises the central role of Adaptation in the translation of works for the popular book market, for theatre, cinema, radio, and, especially, the new media. This is the essential textbook for students in Translation and Adaptation Studies courses and instructors and professionals working on adaptation and transmedia projects.
The Clash of the Races
Author: Monteiro LobatoPublisher:

Book Description
Originally titled The Black President, or The Clash of the Races, by Brazilian writer Monteiro Lobato, the story is about a young man and woman in Brazil who use a high-tech scope that can see into the future. They follow events in the United States in the year 2228 as Black and white voters vie to elect a president of their own race. It's close until a feminist candidate pits men against women regardless of race. The story inevitably reflects some of the racism that was accepted as normal in the 1920s, when the book was written. At the same time, it opens racism to everyone's view as the fictional characters grapple with it. And suddenly, a Black man becomes President of the United States. Hard to believe? Not a hundred years after the book was written. But three centuries later, as Lobato tells the story, a Black president is simply not acceptable to whites. And then things get ugly. Ana Lessa-Schmidt's insightful and nuanced translation is the first English version of this Brazilian classic. It was shocking in 1926, and it's even more shocking today.
