In this highly original volume, Charles Perrone explores how recent
Brazilian lyric engages with its counterparts throughout the
Western Hemisphere in an increasingly globalized world. This
pioneering, tour-de-force study focuses on the years from 1985 to
the present and examines poetic output-from song and visual poetry
to discursive verse--across a range of media. At the core of
Perrone's work are in-depth examinations of five phenomena: the use
of the English language and the reception of American poetry in
Brazil; representations and engagements with U.S. culture,
especially with respect to film and popular music; epic poems of
hemispheric solidarity; contemporary dialogues between Brazilian
and Spanish American poets; and the innovative musical, lyrical,
and commercially successful work that evolved from the 1960s
movement Tropicalia.
