O objetivo deste escrito é disponibilizar uma discussão do ensaio Sobre verdade e mentira no sentido extramoral (1873) escrito pelo filósofo alemão Friedrich Nietzsche, fazendo uma breve relação final com uma obra do mesmo período O nascimento da tragédia a partir do espírito da música (1872).

Canada likes to present itself as a paragon of LGBTQ rights. This book contends that rather than being a beacon of justice, Canada's newfound acceptance of the LGBTQ community is a smokescreen that obscures and abets multiple forms of oppression...including the marginalization of queers who do not fit within accepted norms. As the title to this provocative volume implies, Disrupting Queer Inclusion: Canadian Homonationalisms and the Politics of Belonging seeks to unsettle the belief that inclusion equates to justice. The contributors draw from a range of interdisciplinary perspectives to detail how, in the fight for acceptance within mainstream society, "liberal gays" have unwittingly become complicit participants in a system that entrenches racialization as structured by white supremacy, furthers settler colonialism, advances neoliberalism, and props up imperialist mythologies (such as the one that Canada is a safe haven for homosexuals). They do this by highlighting the uneven relationships produced by normative articulations of sexual citizenship in a wide-range of contexts...in prisons, at PRIDE House, Pride marches, fetish fairs, and the feminist porn awards...as well as within the laws and regulations governing marriage, hate crimes, citizenship, blood donation, and refugee claims

Campañó s/n, E-36157 Pontevedra, Spain, and Centre Technique du Papier, Domaine Universitaire, P.O. Box 251, Cedex 9, F-38044 Grenoble, France ; Modern environmentally sound trends in manufacturing of bleached paper pulp involve development of totally chlorine free (TCF) bleaching and zero liquid effluent (ZLE)processes. Lipophilic extractives are among the most problematic wood constituents for both TCF and ZLE processes, since they tend to accumulate in circuits resulting in new manufacturing ("pitch" deposits) and environmental troubles. The extractive-degrading fungi Bjerkandera adusta, Phlebia radiata, Pleurotus pulmonarius and Poria subvermispora were assayed to remove these compounds from Eucalyptus globulus wood using solid-state fermentation conditions. The pretreated chips were subjected to laboratory kraft pulping to assess the effectiveness of the treatment. Evaluation of extractive removal was carried out by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of extracts from the pretreated wood and the pulps and black liquors after cooking. As a result of the fungal pretreatment, up to 75% decreased levels of problematic compounds (including free and esterified sitosterol) were found in pulps and liquors. Moreover, a significant reduction of potential acute toxicity was found in black liquors from wood pretreated with three of the fungi. The biopulps were TCF-bleached, refined and handsheet properties evaluated to select the most advantageous fungi from the point of view of their industrial applicability in environmentally sound pulp manufacturing processes. ; This study has been partially supported by the European Union (contract FAIR-CT95-0560, "Wood extractives in pulp and paper manufacture: Technical and environmental implications and biological removal") and by the Spanish Biotechnology Program. ; Peer reviewed
