Positivism and Evolutionism in Flávio de Barros's Photographs of the Canudos War
The Canudos War was a pivotal moment in the early years of the Brazilian republic. The events that culminated in the destruction of the settlement of Canudos left an indelible mark on the country’s history. Canudos’s prominence within Brazilian history can be partly explained by the fact that it is the subject of Euclides da Cunha’s Os sertões (1902), the first edition of which included three photographs taken by Flávio de Barros. De Barros’s pho…
Revert Henrique Klumb’s Developmental Narrative and the Modernization of Rio de Janeiro’s Landscapes

Among those most interested in photography was the Imperial Family. Dom Pedro II and Dona Teresa Cristina were avid collectors of photography. Among the photographers they purchased images from was Revert H…
Agustín Víctor Casasola’s Engagement with Positivism and Spectacle in his Imagining of Mexico City During the Late Porfiriato, 1900–10
Photography would play a crucial role in documenting the changes that the inhabitants of Mexico City experienced at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth century.

As one of the foremost photographers working in Harlem in the 1920s, James VanDerZee played a pivotal role in conveying and perpetuating the image of Jazz Age Harlem as a flourishing black community. Despite his s…

It examines Hughes' reflections on Haitian class and race relations as they were articulated in two short essays, People without Shoes and White Shadows in Black Land, as well as in his autobiography I Wonder as I Wander (1956). All three texts explore the cultural differences between a large peasantry which spoke Kreyl and worshipped vodou , and a smaller, F…
Behind the mask
Eminem has emerged in the last five years to become perhaps the pre-eminent hip-hop artist of his generation. Despite his success, he is a figure that has polarized audiences in the United States and elsewhere. While frequently criticized for promoting sentiments that are homophobic, misogynistic and violent, these impulses are presented in a way that is so exaggerated that they slip into and are indeed intended as parody. As such, Eminem provide…
