Ebook: Strategien ›kultureller Kannibalisierung‹: Postkoloniale Repräsentationen vom brasilianischen Modernismo zum Cinema Novo

Understanding Oswald de Andrade's Manifesto Antropofago (English title: Cannibal Manifesto, 1928) not only as an aesthetic production, but also as a postcolonial theory construction, opens up new perspectives on Brazilian culture, which - after extensive cultural and historical contextualization - render the manifesto fertile ground for an understanding of Tropicalismo. Peter W. Schulze's interdisciplinary investigation for the first time works out in detail the complex intramedial and intermedial references of the manifesto and follows the postcolonial dimensions of tropicalist movies. The study is thus to be understood as a contribution to postcolonial studies.
