The Evolution of Literature in the Americas
This book offers a systematic and comparative history of the evolution of literature in the Americas, from the beginning to the present day. It begins with an introduction that assesses the development of the field and then proceeds to a chapter on the literature of Pre-Columbian and indigenous America. It then moves forward chronologically, from the arrival of the Europeans (beginning in 1492) to the year 2026. Including indigenous literature, the other American literatures represented in the book are those of Canada (both Francophone and Anglophone), the United States, the Caribbean (Francophone and Anglophone), Spanish America, and Brazil. Not every book ever written in the Americas is included, of course; only those that, in the author’s estimation, offer some valid point of comparison with other American literary cultures. These points of comparison include issues of theme, genre, literary periods, literature and other disciplines, such as history, art, music, or politics, cases of influence and reception, and translation. The book’s emphasis is on viewing American literature from a hemispheric and comparative lens.
Virtual Orientalism in Brazilian Culture
Orientalist discourses in Brazilian culture are an expression of anxieties about the re-structuring of time and space in the network age. The book examines engagements with Japanese postmodern culture in Brazil, which emerge in relation to the history of Japanese immigration and through a series of European and North American discursive mediations.
Brazil, Lyric, and the Americas
"This is Perrone at his most brilliant. Erudite but accessible, thorough but playful: Brazil, Lyric, and the Americas is the latest contribution by the most knowledgeable U.S.-based scholar of the Brazilian lyric."--Severino Joao Albuquerque, University of Wisconsin "Perrone retraces the dialogue of the Brazilian lyric with the poetry of the Americas in the generous spirit that the poets' utopia of solidarity will serve as a counterpoint to the harsher side of globalization."--Luiza Moreira, Binghamton University In this highly original volume, Charles Perrone explores how recent Brazilian lyric engages with its counterparts throughout the Western Hemisphere in an increasingly globalized wor...
The Defence of Tradition in Brazilian Popular Music Politics Culture and the Creation of MúSica Popular Brasileira
Sean Stroud examines how and why Música Popular Brasileira (MPB) has come to have such a high status, and why the musical tradition (including MPB) within Brazil has been defended with such vigour for so long. He emphasizes the importance of musical nationalism as an underlying ideology to discussions about Brazilian popular music since the 1920s, and the key debate on so-called 'cultural invasion' in Brazil. The roles of those responsible for the construction of the idea of MPB are examined in detail. Stroud goes on to consider the impact of the Brazilian record industry in the light of theories of cultural imperialism and globalization and also evaluates governmental intervention relating to popular music in the 1970s.
Le déplacement réel ou imaginaire dans le monde lusophone
Dès le XIVe siècle, partir devient au Portugal le mot d’ordre. Les hommes et la langue portugaise voyagent et les contours du monde lusophone se dessinent peu à peu. La diaspora portugaise commence avec les Grandes Découvertes et le mythe de l’Eldorado brésilien ne tardera pas à naître. Le déplacement dans le monde lusophone s’effectue parfois sous le signe de l’utopie. Le Nouveau Monde en général et le Brésil en particulier deviennent, en effet, une terre promise ou une terre d’utopie pour de nombreux Européens ; au Moyen Âge, on baptisera même une île imaginaire du nom de « Brasil » et l’Italien Giovanni Rossi fondera au début du mois d’avril 1890, dans le P...
Subjetividades em devir

Os textos aqui apresentados lançam luz de forma criteriosa sobre obras de poetas de língua portuguesa, francesa e espanhola, de fins do século XIX até os dias de hoje - retomando proposições fundamentais à construção da tradição moderna de poesia, como a da visão alegórica de Baudelaire e da crise do verso diagnosticada por Mallarmé.
Portugal e o Oriente - Antero de Quental - Camilo Castelo Branco - Eça de Queirós - Pinheiro Chagas
A partir da chegada de Vasco da Gama às Índias, em 1498, e o estabelecimento de uma rota marítima até o Oriente, essa região se tornou intimamente ligada à História de Portugal e à memória coletiva de seu povo. No século XIX, o Oriente se torna um tema em voga nas letras e nas artes de toda a Europa, mas em Portugal, devido às suas singularidades políticas nesse século, ganha contornos únicos, especialmente na segunda metade da centúria. Esta obra investiga as várias formas como o Oriente (mais especificamente, o Extremo Oriente) foi representado em textos de quatro significativos nomes do século XIX português: Antero de Quental (1842-1891), Camilo Castelo Branco (1825-1890...
