SPAN 4320
Anthropophagic Brazil

Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

What does it mean for a nation to "devour" the world and reinvent itself in the process? This course takes Oswald de Andrade's daring 1928 Cannibal Manifesto as its point of departure to explore how Brazil has continually reimagined itself through acts of cultural transformation and resistance. From the radical experiments of modernism and the neo-concrete movement, to the psychedelic aesthetics of Tropicalia and and the contemporary visions of Afrofuturism, this course traces how art, music, performance, film, and literature have reshaped Brazilian identity. Conducted in Spanish.
