The authors discuss subjects in such basic fields as literature, linguistics, history, the social sciences, geography, the fine arts, music, and natural science. Taken as a whole, the contents demonstrate the logic of organizing a volume not around a geographical concept but, rather, around a historical concept, in this case ""the world the Portuguese created," as Gilberto Freyre described it. The essays are based on papers that were given at the Sixth International Colloquium of Luso-Brazilian Studies, held in the United States in 1966. In addition to the essays, the book contains the text of comments and discussion about the papers. There are twenty-seven major essays by as many contributors and comments by a number of discussants.PortugalCivilizationBrazilCivilizationPortuguese influences918.1/03/6Sayers Raymond S1704663MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910813925003321Portugal and Brazil in transition4090832UNINA
