Descripción
Sumario:This edited volume is a collection of twelve interdisciplinary essays from various Brazilian literary scholars, historians, and anthropologists analyzing the work of 19th- and 20th-century Afro-Brazilian writer Afonso Henriques de Lima Barreto. This is the first collection to present a cohesive analysis of this writer's work in English. It is an intellectually diverse collection of essays that recover Barreto's œuvre and consider a wide range of topics, including Barreto's treatment of race, family, class, social and gender politics of post-abolition Brazil, neocolonialism, the disjuncture between urban and suburban spaces, and national identity politics.
