The Poverty Of Memory: Essays On History And Empire

by Renato Redentor Constantino

The Poverty of Memory deals with narratives of resistance and conquest, the exigencies of empire, the roots of global insecurity and the ecological impacts of imperial overreach. It draws on the contradictions that have increasingly defines our lives and takes aim at the certainties that have allowed others to hold sway over the affairs of pretty much everybody else.

The Poverty of Memory is about the consequences of abstention and forgetting, a combination that has never been as deadly as it is today. Above everything else, it is about remembering.

From Booksellers to Booklovers

Founded in the late 1940s by the Po Brothers, the bookstore was built on a simple yet profound philosophy: when you visit, no one will ask you what you want. You are free to ramble where you will; to handle any book; in short, to browse at leisure.
