    Content: "Scholar, poet, and visionary Beatriz Nascimento (1942-1995) was one of the most influential Black intellectuals in Brazilian history. Writing at the height of Brazil's military dictatorship from 1964 to 1985, Nascimento played an integral role in the consolidation of the Black political movement. A theorist, filmmaker, poet, political organizer, and historian, her research incorporated a broad range of topics, including African and Afro-Brazilian history, culture, and socio-political organization. Her most cited contributions were devoted to the history and idea of the quilombo, Black autonomous spaces in Brazil carved out from oppressive slave societies. This collection of the written works of Beatriz Nascimento was organized by Christen A. Smith, Archie Davis, and Bethânia N. F. Gomes (Nascimento's daughter and heir). This will be the first translation into English of Nascimento's work, including published and unpublished articles, essays, and poems. The range of subjects is wide, from the historical reconstruction of quilombo societies and the African diaspora to the contemporary challenges of being a black intellectual in academia. It is divided into four parts: "The Black Woman"; "Race and Brazilian Society"; "Quilombo-Thoughts on Black Freedom and Liberation"; and "Black Aesthetics, Spirituality, Subjectivity and the Cosmic." The volume is introduced collectively by all three editors, and each part features a substantive introduction contextualizing the pieces within Nascimento's oeuvre"--
    Content: "Collected writings by one of the most influential Black Brazilian intellectuals of the twentieth century. Beatriz Nascimento (1942-1995) was a poet, historian, artist, and political leader in Brazil's Black movement, an innovative and creative thinker whose work offers a radical reimagining of gender, space, politics, and spirituality around the Atlantic and across the Black diaspora. Her powerful voice still resonates today, reflecting a deep commitment to political organizing, revisionist historiography, and the lived experience of Black women. The Dialectic Is in the Sea is the first English-language collection of writings by this vitally important figure in the global tradition of Black radical thought.The Dialectic Is in the Sea traces the development of Nascimento's thought across the decades of her activism and writing, covering topics such as the Black woman, race and Brazilian society, Black freedom, and Black aesthetics and spirituality. Incisive introductory and analytical essays provide key insights into the political and historical context of Nascimento's work. This engaging collection includes an essay by Bethânia N. F. Gomes, Nascimento's only daughter, who shares illuminating and uniquely personal insights into her mother's life and career"--
