Description

This book portrays the growth of "Brazilianism" in the literature of that country as it slowly broke away from the heavy influence of Portuguese writings and began to deal with native themes and types to express itself in the new Brazilian idiom. The author ties the movements in Brazilian literature to world literary currents of the time, showing how writing in Brazil differed from and at the same time followed certain universal currents.--From book jacket.
