The Transatlantic Circulation of Novels Between Europe and Brazil, 1789-1914
This book brings a renewed critical focus to the history of novel writing, publishing, selling and reading, expanding its viewing beyond national territories. Relying on primary sources (such as advertisements, censorship reviews, publisher and bookstore catalogues), the book examines the paths taken by novels in their shifts between Europe and Brazil, investigates the flow of translations in both directions, pays attention to the successful novels of the time and analyses the critical response to fiction in both sides of the Atlantic. It reveals that neither nineteenth century culture can be properly understood by focusing on a single territory, nor literature can be fully perceived by looking only to the texts, ignoring their material existence and their place in social and economical practices.
Figures of Transcontinental Multilingualism
This volume investigates outstanding figures and configurations of literary and cultural multilingualism on a transcontinental and on a global scale. Its first focus is on the both subcontinental and transcontinental Indies, on the oxymoronic figure of East West India and on the stirring 'relations through words' in Luso-Afro-Indian, Anglo-Indian, and Indo-European areas. The second focus is on the cross-cultural configuration of East and West shaped by some striking Sino-European and Sino-American events in early modern and modern times. A third issue concerns the glocal and globoglot 'people of paper' in a contemporary Californian town, and, lastly, the all-embracing, all-devouring ouroboros and other multi-lingual ophidians.

Literature and Cultural Memory
Cultural Memory, a subtle and comprehensive process of identity formation, promotion and transmission, is considered as a set of symbolic practices and protocols, with particular emphasis on repositories of memory and the institutionalized forms in which they are embodied. High and low culture as texts embedded in the texture of memory, as well as material culture as a communal receptacle and reservoir of memory are analysed in their historical contingency. Symbolic representations of accepted and counter history/ies, and the cultural nodes and mechanisms of the cultural imaginary are also issues of central interest. Twenty-six contributions tackle these topics from a theoretical and histori...

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...
Camilo Castelo Branco et Machado de Assis
Même si les hommes n’entretiennent aucune relation personnelle, les formes littéraires ou artistiques, les idées, les questionnements, les objets, les querelles, les livres circulent au sein de l’Europe et voyagent de part et d’autre de l’Atlantique au temps de Camilo Castelo Branco et de Machado de Assis, auteurs traduits en français. Ainsi s’exportent par-delà les frontières les questionnements, concernant par exemple la représentation du réel en littérature, la polémique autour du naturalisme, les modèles et les modes de diffusion comme le feuilleton dans les journaux, cette innovation française rendant la littérature accessible à tous. On assiste notamment au tran...

Uma coisa na ordem das coisas: estudos para Ofélia Paiva Monteiro
O volume Uma Coisa na Ordem das Coisas. Estudos para Ofélia Paiva Monteiro "por força havia de suceder, conforme pode ler-se no passo das Viagens que naquele título ecoa. Havia de suceder prestar-se justa homenagem a uma universitária que sobejamente a merece, sem para isso ter feito outra coisa que não aquilo que mais e melhor tem feito: ensinar, investigar, orientar, estimular nos seus incontáveis discípulos o desafio de aprender. Por isso encontramos, neste livro de celebração de uma grande senhora da universidade portuguesa, ensaístas de várias gerações, formações e origens. Nem todos terão sido formalmente alunos de Ofélia Paiva Monteiro; todos foram seus discípulos, no sentido mais rico do termo, o de aprender com quem, tendo a superioridade do saber não exibe a arrogância de o impor. Assim foi e continua a ser Ofélia Paiva Monteiro, ao longo de uma vida consagrada a ler e a ensinar muitos autores de muitos tempos; é também resultado da motivadora pluralidade de saberes da homenageada a diversificada gama de temas literários e culturais que estes estudos contemplam. Todos e cada um deles são testemunho de gratidão pelo exemplo da Mestra.
