Em Noturno da Lapa, Luís Martins oferece ao leitor as crônicas de uma vida onde figuram personagens como Rubem Braga, Carlos Drummond de Andrade e Odylo Costa, filho. Não sem motivos, este livro levou o prêmio Jabuti de melhor livro de memórias em 1965. É um livro que retoma outra obra, Lapa, que havia sido censurada na época do Estado Novo, considerado um acerto de contas com a juventude do autor.

Originalmente batizado de 'Prostituição' (tendo, por sugestão do baiano Jorge Amado, seu nome modificado pouco antes do lançamento), 'Lapa' narra as andanças solitárias do jovem estudante Paulo Braga pelas vielas sujas e sombrias da cidade. Como o escritor e jornalista Ruy Castro, 'lapiano de coração', afirma na introdução desta nova edição, é quase como se Luís Martins estivesse tendo uma 'premonição da decadência que afligiria o bairro no futuro próximo'. Relacionando-se basicamente com prostitutas - Lias, Rosinhas, Giselles, Cecílias, Odettes e Honorinas - e cafetinas, Paulo acompanha a assustadora transformação do sexo em moléstia e do amor em morte.

In From Sea-Bathing to Beach-Going B. J. Barickman explores how a narrow ocean beachfront neighborhood and the distinctive practice of beach-going invented by its residents in the early twentieth century came to symbolize a city and a nation. Nineteenth-century Cariocas (residents of Rio) ostensibly practiced sea-bathing for its therapeutic benefits, but the bathing platforms near the city center and the rocky bay shore of Flamengo also provided places to see and be seen. Sea-bathing gave way to beach-going and sun-tanning in the new beachfront neighborhood of Copacabana in the 1920s. This study reveals the social and cultural implications of this transformation and highlights the distinctive changes to urban living that took place in the Brazilian capital. Deeply informed by scholarship about race, class, and gender, as well as civilization and modernity, space, the body, and the role of the state in shaping urban development, this work provides a major contribution to the social and cultural history of Rio de Janeiro and to the history of leisure.

A entrada do Brasil no século XX - preparada desde o fim do Oitocentos pela abolição da escravidão, o advento da República, pelo início da atividade industrial, da imigração estrangeira e das grandes obras públicas - iria provocar como reflexo mais evidente, na área cultural, a descentralização da vida literária. A projeção dessas mudanças sobre o romance, em particular, foi o aparecimento, ao lado do Rio de Janeiro, de centros de produção local em várias capitais - como Porto Alegre, São Paulo, Belo Horizonte e Recife - com aproveitamento de temas que vinham ampliar o campo de ação dos enredos, fazendo surgir os romances de escândalo ou de crônica, da vida de pequenas cidades, ou específicos da vida proletária, pequeno-burguesa ou vagamente "populares". Aumentam também as referências à música popular, agora mostrada em seu papel de produto cultural ligado a interesses de fabricantes de novidades destinadas ao lazer de minorias. Este segundo volume da trilogia de A música popular no romance brasileiro inicia-se com Lima Barreto, e seu Triste fim de Policarpo Quaresma (1915), e vai até O último dos Morungabas de Galeão Coutinho (1944).

The Human Tradition in Modern Brazil makes the last two centuries of Brazilian history come alive through the stories of mostly non-elite individuals. The pieces in this lively collection address how people experienced historical continuities and changes by exploring how they related to the rise of Brazilian national identity and the emergence of a national state. By including a broad array of historical actors from different regions, ethnicities, occupations, races, genders, and eras, The Human Tradition in Modern Brazil brings a human dimension to major economic, political, cultural, and social transitions. Because these perspectives do not always fit with the generalizations made about the predominant attitudes, values, and beliefs of different groups, they bring a welcome complexity to the understanding of Brazilian society and history.

For many foreign observers, Brazil still conjures up a collage of exotic images, ranging from the camp antics of Carmen Miranda to the bronzed girl (or boy) from Ipanema moving sensually over the white sands of Rio's beaches. Among these tropical fantasies is that of the uninhibited and licentious Brazilian homosexual, who expresses uncontrolled sexuality during wild Carnival festivities and is welcomed by a society that accepts fluid sexual identity. However, in Beyond Carnival, the first sweeping cultural history of male homosexuality in Brazil, James Green shatters these exotic myths and replaces them with a complex picture of the social obstacles that confront Brazilian homosexuals. Ranging from the late nineteenth century to the rise of a politicized gay and lesbian rights movement in the 1970s, Green's study focuses on male homosexual subcultures in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. He uncovers the stories of men coping with arrests and street violence, dealing with family restrictions, and resisting both a hostile medical profession and moralizing influences of the Church. Green also describes how these men have created vibrant subcultures with alternative support networks for maintaining romantic and sexual relationships and for surviving in an intolerant social environment. He then goes on to trace how urban parks, plazas, cinemas, and beaches are appropriated for same-sex erotic encounters, bringing us into the world of street cruising, male hustlers, and cross-dressing prostitutes. Through his creative use of police and medical records, newspapers, literature, newsletters, and extensive interviews, Green has woven a fascinating history, the first of its kind for Latin America, that will set the standard for future works. "Green brushes aside outworn cultural assumptions about Brazil's queer life to display its full glory, as well as the troubles which homophobia has sent its way. . . . This latest gem in Chicago's 'World of Desire' series offers a shimmering view of queer Brazilian life throughout the 20th century."—Kirkus Reviews Winner of the 2000 Lambda Literary Awards' Emerging Scholar Award of the Monette/Horwitz Trust Winner of the 1999 Hubert Herring Award, Pacific Coast Council on Latin American Studies

Journalist and spectacularly successful governor, Carlos Lacerda was Brazil's foremost orator in this century and its most controversial politician. He might have become president in the 1960s had not the military taken over. In the first volume, John F. W. Dulles paints a portrait of a rebellious youth, who had the willfulness of his prominent father and who crusaded for Communism before becoming its most outspoken foe. Recalling Lacerda's rallying cry, Brazil must be shaken up, Dulles traces the career of the journalist whose unsparing attacks on the men in power led authorities to imprison him and employ thugs who pummeled him physically. Lacerda's spirited oratory helped him become Brazil's most popular congressman, but it scared the rulers of Brazil, who prohibited the broadcast of his speeches after he returned from exile in 1956. Their effort to deprive him of his mandate stirred the entire nation and culminated in one of the most dramatic sessions ever held in the Chamber of Deputies.

Brazilian Railway Culture examines the cultural relationship Brazil has had with its railways since tracks were first laid by British, American and French engineers in the nineteenth century. ‘Railway’ and ‘Brazil’ are words not often found in the same sentence. Yet each year over seven hundred million passengers are carried by train in the major urban centres, and tens of thousands of visitors enjoy heritage steam rides at over a dozen restored lines and museums. Brazilian Railway Culture starts from the premise that Brazilian society and culture is not just samba, football and sex. The book takes a journey through Brazilian cultural output from 1865 to the present day, examining novels, poetry, music, art, film and television, as well as autobiographies, written histories, and museums to uncover ways in which the railway has been represented. This interdisciplinary study engages with theories of informal empire and postcolonialism, Latin American studies, cultural studies, film and television studies, literary criticism, art history and criticism, museum and heritage studies, as well as railway studies. This is a supplementary text for use by students on both undergraduate and postgraduate courses. It will also be of interest to academics, researchers, and railway historians across a range of disciplines.
