Nascido no dia 18 de outubro de 1915, Grande Otelo é natural de Uberlândia (MG) e seu verdadeiro nome era Sebastião Bernardes de Souza Prata. O apelido Grande Otelo veio em 1932, quando entrou para a Companhia Jardel Jércolis, pioneira no teatro de revista. The Great Othelo foi o apelido criado pelo amigo Jardel Jércolis em 1932, que mais tarde, o ator passou a usar em português. Grande Otelo tinha 1,50 m de altura. Apesar de sua característica cômica como ator, a vida real de Grande Otelo foi cheia de tragédias. Otelo foi uma daquelas pessoas únicas que, bafejadas pela adversidade constante, parecem ter feito dela, à custa de sofrimento e de uma intensidade passional de viver, uma rota tortuosa de triunfo. O pai morreu esfaqueado e a mãe era alcoólatra. Quando Otelo já estava consagrado, sua mulher, depressiva, suicidou-se após matar seu filho e enteado do ator, uma criança de 6 anos. Naquele momento, Otelo filmava, no papel de Julieta, a antológica cena do balcão com Oscarito, o Romeu, em Carnaval no Fogo. Veio a saber da tragédia pouco depois. Ele mesmo um cachaceiro de carteirinha, faltava a ensaios e espetáculos, desaparecendo por dias em porres de juntar criança ao seu redor. Durante sua carreira, fez inúmeros filmes, entre eles as famosas comédias ao lado do cômico Oscarito, nas décadas de 1940 e 1950. No cinema, teve como pontos altos da carreira a participação no filme “It’s All True” (1942), de Orson Welles. Filmou também “Fitzcarraldo” (1982) com o diretor Werner Herzog, na floresta peruana. A partir dos anos 60, trabalhou na TV Globo, onde atuou em novelas e também na Escolinha do Professor Raimundo. Seu último trabalho foi uma participação na telenovela Renascer, pouco antes da sua morte. Talvez nenhum outro ator brasileiro tenha contracenado com um elenco nacional tão extenso, que atravessou gerações e incluiu Carmen Miranda, Dalva de Oliveira, Jece Valadão, José Lewgoy, Angela Maria, Zé Kéti, Paulo José, Dina Sfat, Hugo Carvana, Jardel Filho, Joana Fom, Betty Faria, Odete Lara, Bibi Ferreira e Paulo Autran. E, claro, com Oscarito, com o qual trabalhou em 17 filmes, incluindo o extraordinário Carnaval no Fogo, chanchada de 1949, dirigida por Watson Macedo. E é sobre este grande “pequeno ator – tinha 1 metro e meio de altura” Grande Otelo que vamos falar um pouco, relembrando sua vida, seus filmes, suas participações em novelas, programas humorísticos e suas parcerias na tela.

Despite the recent explosion of scholarly interest in “star studies,” Brazilian film has received comparatively little attention. As this volume demonstrates, however, the richness of Brazilian stardom extends well beyond the ubiquitous Carmen Miranda. Among the studies assembled here are fascinating explorations of figures such as Eliane Lage (the star attraction of São Paulo’s Vera Cruz studios), cult horror movie auteur Coffin Joe, and Lázaro Ramos, the most visible Afro-Brazilian actor today. At the same time, contributors interrogate the inner workings of the star system in Brazil, from the pioneering efforts of silent-era actresses to the recent advent of the non-professional movie star.

Brazilian cinema is one of the most influential national cinemas in Latin America and this wide-ranging study traces the evolution of Brazilian film from the silent era to the present day, including detailed studies of more recent international box-office hits, such as Central Station (1998) and City of God (2002). Brazilian National Cinema gives due importance to traditionally overlooked aspects of Brazilian cinema, such as popular genres, ranging from musical comedies (the chanchada) to soft-core porn films (the pornochanchada) and horror films, and also provides a fresh approach to the internationally acclaimed avant-garde Cinema Novo of the 1960s. Lisa Shaw and Stephanie Dennison apply recent theories on stardom, particularly relating to issues of ethnicity, race and gender, to both well-known Brazilian performers, such as Carmen Miranda and Sonia Braga, and lesser known domestic icons, such as the Afro-Brazilian comic actor, Grande Otelo (Big Othello), and the uberblonde children’s TV and film star, and media mogul, Xuxa. This timely addition to the National Cinemas series provides a comprehensive overview of the relationship between Brazilian cinema and issues of national and cultural identity.

Ninety years after W.E.B. Du Bois first articulated the need for "the equivalent of a black Encyclopedia Britannica," Kwame Anthony Appiah and Henry Louis Gates Jr., realized his vision by publishing Africana: The Encyclopedia of the African and African American Experience in 1999. This new, greatly expanded edition of the original work broadens the foundation provided by Africana. Including more than one million new words, Africana has been completely updated and revised. New entries on African kingdoms have been added, bibliographies now accompany most articles, and the encyclopedia's coverage of the African diaspora in Latin America and the Caribbean has been expanded, transforming the set into the most authoritative research and scholarly reference set on the African experience ever created. More than 4,000 articles cover prominent individuals, events, trends, places, political movements, art forms, business and trade, religion, ethnic groups, organizations and countries on both sides of the Atlantic. African American history and culture in the present-day United States receive a strong emphasis, but African American history and culture throughout the rest of the Americas and their origins in African itself have an equally strong presence. The articles that make up Africana cover subjects ranging from affirmative action to zydeco and span over four million years from the earlies-known hominids, to Sean "Diddy" Combs. With entries ranging from the African ethnic groups to members of the Congressional Black Caucus, Africana, Second Edition, conveys the history and scope of cultural expression of people of African descent with unprecedented depth.

Brazilian popular culture, including music, dance, theater, and film, played a key role in transnational performance circuits—inter-American and transatlantic—from the latter nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century. Brazilian performers both drew inspiration from and provided models for cultural production in France, Portugal, Argentina, the United States, and elsewhere. These transnational exchanges also helped construct new ideas about, and representations of, "racial" identity in Brazil. Tropical Travels fruitfully examines how perceptions of "race" were negotiated within popular performance in Rio de Janeiro and how these issues engaged with wider transnational trends during the period. Lisa Shaw analyzes how local cultural forms were shaped by contact with imported performance traditions and transnational vogues in Brazil, as well as by the movement of Brazilian performers overseas. She focuses specifically on samba and the maxixe in Paris between 1910 and 1922, teatro de revista (the Brazilian equivalent of vaudeville) in Rio in the long 1920s, and a popular Brazilian female archetype, the baiana, who moved to and fro across national borders and oceans. Shaw demonstrates that these transnational encounters generated redefinitions of Brazilian identity through the performance of "race" and ethnicity in popular culture. Shifting the traditional focus of Atlantic studies from the northern to the southern hemisphere, Tropical Travels also contributes to a fuller understanding of inter-hemispheric cultural influences within the Americas.
