Publisher: Edinburgh University Press
Brazilian cinema has a rich history of combining extra-filmic artistic and cultural forms, both local and imported, resulting in an original aesthetic blend. Theatre, dance, music, circus, radio, television, and the plastic arts have left a distinctive mark on Brazilian cinema's poetics and politics, as can be observed in a host of fascinating phenomena analyzed in this book. The film prologues that connected the screen to the stage in the 1920s, the chanchada musical comedies, the manguebeat and árido movie movements, and contemporary multimedia installations and other experiments are just a few examples of the ways in which filmic expressions in Brazilian cinema have been shaped by intermediality. By adopting intermediality as a historiographic method, this book reconstructs the history and cultural wealth behind filmic expressions in Brazilian cinema, providing a deeper understanding of the ways in which film has influenced and been influenced by other forms of art and culture.
