Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beyond the Argentine: Or, Letters From Brazil He said that G. Had telegraphed asking him to meet me, but he had understood it to mean the next day, owing, as I afterwards found, to a clerk's having changed the word during the transmission of the telegram. G. Had missed the train the day before, through no fault of his own. SO Mr. Morice took me and my boxes on shore, passed them through the custom-house, and deposited me in the hotel - a very nice one, roses and bougainvillia in the patio, and the owner and a waiter speaking French. I was very hungry, so went down and ordered my dinner. I had just finished it when, to my surprise, in walked G., just the same as ever, only a good deal burnt. He had just arrived by train. We had some coffee early next morning, and left by the train; we travelled till 4 o'clock, only getting out for breakfast at Sta. Anna on the way. The railway-carriages were full of smoking Spaniards, whom we dropped at inter vals all along the line. Sometimes the train stopped on purpose near some estancia, and a horse or two were brought up for the traveller. All day we saw nothing but the prairie - wide grass plains, stretching away like the sea, on which were hundreds and thousands of cattle and horses feeding, and a few deer and some rheas (the South American ostrich); now and then a dead animal, and vultures screaming in the neighbourhood; lots of white bones about.

Download or read book Adventures with the Bible in Brazil (Classic Reprint) written by Frederick C. Glass and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adventures With the Bible in Brazil Brazil is the second largest country and the fourth largest empire of the World, and has a white population greater than those of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and British Africa together. It was discovered in 1500 by the Portuguese, whose descendants hold it intact to-day, the Dutch and French invasions proving but temporary episodes in the otherwise peaceful history of this splendid Country. The great, and indeed it may be said the only, historian of Brazil is the English poet, Robert Southey, whose masterpiece, The History of Brazil, should be read by all who are interested in The Land of the Southern Cross. Brazil occupies about half the area and has about half the population of the whole continent, so that Spanish South America is a misnomer. It was governed from Lisbon until 1822, when Brazil declared her independence, and chose as her ruler a Portuguese prince, whose son, Dom Pedro II, succeeded him, and governed the country wisely and well for about fifty years. In 1889 a military revolution, overawing the population on the one hand, and making extravagant and illusory promises on the other, succeeded in driving the aged Dom Pedro from his throne and country; and a Republic was set up, which is the established form of government until this day. Though the early years of the Republic were lean ones and full of disillusionments, the country of late has greatly advanced in general progress and wealth, and enjoys a fairly stable form of government.

Download or read book Errant Modernism written by Esther Gabara and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2008-12-15 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making a vital contribution to the understanding of Latin American modernism, Esther Gabara rethinks the role of photography in the Brazilian and Mexican avant-garde movements of the 1920s and 1930s. During these decades, intellectuals in Mexico and Brazil were deeply engaged with photography. Authors who are now canonical figures in the two countries’ literary traditions looked at modern life through the camera in a variety of ways. Mário de Andrade, known as the “pope” of Brazilian modernism, took and collected hundreds of photographs. Salvador Novo, a major Mexican writer, meditated on the medium’s aesthetic potential as “the prodigal daughter of the fine arts.” Intellectuals acted as tourists and ethnographers, and their images and texts circulated in popular mass media, sharing the page with photographs of the New Woman. In this richly illustrated study, Gabara introduces the concept of a modernist “ethos” to illuminate the intertwining of aesthetic innovation and ethical concerns in the work of leading Brazilian and Mexican literary figures, who were also photographers, art critics, and contributors to illustrated magazines during the 1920s and 1930s. Gabara argues that Brazilian and Mexican modernists deliberately made photography err: they made this privileged medium of modern representation simultaneously wander and work against its apparent perfection. They flouted the conventions of mainstream modernism so that their aesthetics registered an ethical dimension. Their photographic modernism strayed, dragging along the baggage of modernity lived in a postcolonial site. Through their “errant modernism,” avant-garde writers and photographers critiqued the colonial history of Latin America and its twentieth-century formations.
