Quem tem medo de Hilda Hilst? O dado de provocação dessa pergunta ainda se faz presente, passados mais de dez anos de sua morte, em 2004. A escritora, poeta e teatróloga, nascida em Jaú, em 1930, ganha nestes últimos tempos uma nova leitura e um interesse crescente por sua obra. Em torno de Hilda Hilst é um livro que se situa no panorama da leitura atenta, sensível e curiosa da obra da autora, reunindo pesquisadores do Brasil e do exterior, amantes dessa chama inquieta que é o texto literário que a escritora paulista tão bem soube manter quente e acesa ao longo dos 47 anos de trabalho exclusivo com a literatura. Os leitores que enfrentam o jogo fornecido pela escritora não saem ilesos do ousado universo literário que ela tão bem explorou e que vai do sacro ao metafísico, passando pelo erótico e pelo campo do amoroso e sublime desejo da morte, sem deixar de se lançar ao combativo discurso político e social.

'The Erotics of Grief' considers how emotions propagate power by exploring whose lives are grieved and what kinds of grief are valuable within and eroticized by medieval narratives. Megan Moore argues that grief is not only routinely eroticized in medieval literature but that it is a foundational emotion of medieval elite culture. Focusing on the concept of grief as desire, Moore builds on the history of the emotions and Georges Bataille's theory of the erotic as the conflict between desire and death, one that perversely builds a sense of community organized around a desire for death. The link between desire and death serves as an affirmation of living communities.

Recent decades have seen a revival of paganism, and every summer people gather across the United States to celebrate this increasingly popular religion. Sarah Pike's engrossing ethnography is the outcome of five years attending neo-pagan festivals, interviewing participants, and sometimes taking part in their ceremonies. Earthly Bodies, Magical Selves incorporates her personal experience and insightful scholarly work concerning ritual, sacred space, self-identity, and narrative. The result is a compelling portrait of this frequently misunderstood religious movement. Neo-paganism began emerging as a new religious movement in the late 1960's. In addition to bringing together followers for self-exploration and participation in group rituals, festivals might offer workshops on subjects such as astrology, tarot, mythology, herbal lore, and African drumming. But while they provide a sense of community for followers, Neo-Pagan festivals often provoke criticism from a variety of sources-among them conservative Christians, Native Americans, New Age spokespersons, and media representatives covering stories of rumored "Satanism" or "witchcraft. "Earthly Bodies, Magical Selves explores larger issues in the United States regarding the postmodern self, utopian communities, cultural improvisation, and contemporary spirituality. Pike's accessible writing style and her nonsensationalistic approach do much to demystify neo-paganism and its followers.
