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. 606 $aPerforming arts$zBrazil$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPerforming arts$zBrazil$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPopular culture$xSocial aspects$zBrazil$xHistory 606 $aBlack people$xRace identity$zBrazil 606 $aPerforming arts$zBrazil$xAfrican influences 607 $aBrazil$xRace relations 615 0$aPerforming arts$xHistory 615 0$aPerforming arts$xHistory 615 0$aPopular culture$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aBlack people$xRace identity 615 0$aPerforming arts$xAfrican influences. 676 $a792.0981 700 $aShaw$b Lisa$f1966-$01151864 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816145703321 996 $aTropical travels$94038864 997 $aUNINA
