A Antologia do conto russo, publicada pela Editôra Lux Ltda. no início dos anos 1960 e organizada por Otto Maria Carpeaux, é a primeira tradução de contos russos realizada diretamente da língua de origem. Este estudo resgata as informações e a situação em que essa coletânea de textos foi criada, numa tentativa de remontar seu contexto histórico, momento literário e mercado editorial, buscando hipóteses que auxiliem no entendimento dos aparatos que a constituem, num esforço de aproximação do escasso material de divulgação localizado sobre obra, editora e organizador pesquisado nos periódicos da época e constante dos anexos , numa reflexão sobre os laços de interesse existentes entre o Brasil e a União Soviética. / The Anthology of Russian Short Stories, edited by Otto Maria Carpeaux and published in the early 1960s by Editôra Lux Ltda, marks the first time Russian short stories were published from direct translation of the original language to Portuguese. This study retrieved information about the Brazilian historical and literary context as well as its publishing market during the time the work was created in an effort to promote a better understanding of how it was influenced by them. The presented information about the work, publisher and editor )included in the attachments( was searched in the sparse number of publishing advertisements in the newspapers and magazines that circulated during that time. It allows a better understanding of the works content and promotes a deeper reflection on the common interests and relationship between Brazil and the USSR.

The goal of this paper is to map and classify the short stories of French author Marcel Aymé. In the first part of the work the characterstics of the short story as a literary genre are defined and its evolution during the 20th century is illustrated. In the second part, Aymé's life is described as well as general characteristics of his work are exposed and put into contemporary literary context. In the third and main part of the work, Aymé's short stories are presented and the thematic groups are stated (set up as based on the lecture of Aymé's collected short stories), into which the individual stories can be included. Each one of these groups is then explained separately and its general characteristics are outlined. The conclusion then presents the basic thematic overview of the stories.

The Talisman is an adventure story set in a future where much of today's cultural memory and technology has been lost. Following a hunting accident, a young man named Forest survives a life-threatening wound and embarks on a quest for knowledge. Rising sea levels, bands of marauders, wild animals and the perils of survival in the broken world are not the only problems facing the survivors. The nature of the collapse of the society, what triggered it and its subsequent unfolding, bequeaths an existential quandary upon them that only Forest, and a rare text as old as the earth itself, can unravel
