Preview Tentative Transgressions: Homosexuality, AIDS, and the Theater in Brazil
Description:
A first-rate and innovative study that makes a major contribution to its field, and redresses a very serious absence of literature on gay themes and imagery in Brazilian theater. Part of what makes this study so important is its range. Starting at the beginning of the twentieth century, Albuquerque examines the way the Modernist movement both fueled and inhibited the use of gay imagery in Brazlian drama. Following the changing theatrical motifs through the decades, from the waning of the military dictatorship through the early days of AIDS, Albuquerque's study ultimately becomes a study of a whole Latin society, and the ways in which Latin theatre has absorbed and reflected the culture's own changing sensibilities.
