Legacies of the 1973 Coup in Chile
Music Heritage, Music-evoked Reminiscence and Cultural Identity
This article explores the findings of our recent work with the Chilean community in Liverpool, investigating the importance of music as an individual and collective inheritance and how music is valued and attached to a sense of self, place and belonging. Using a novel methodology based on BBC Radio Four’s programme ‘Inheritance Tracks’, participants took part in workshops where they discussed two pieces of music, one passed on to them and one the…

Taí, Eu Fiz Tudo Pra Você Gostar De Mim
Este artigo focaliza a trajetória artística de Carmen Miranda e aborda a forma pela qual a artista construiu seu (auto)marketing por meio da figura da baiana estilizada, tendo sua imagem ligada a produtos diversos e reproduzida no Brasil e no exterior. Examina também como Miranda contribuiu para popularizar e fixar essa figura nos desfiles das escolas de samba do Rio de Janeiro, ressaltando diálogos e tensões entre a “tradição” das fantasias da b…
Towards an Alternative 1922
This article explores cultural innovations taking place in Rio de Janeiro in 1922. The year evidenced numerous changes in the then capital. These have, though, been eclipsed by the dominant focus on avant-garde experimentations by modernist artists in São Paulo. Returning to 1922 and zooming in on Rio, this article explores transformations that altered the space of the city, and its popular cultural landscape. By doing so, the article seeks to wi…
A piece of paper is not the same as having someone to talk to”

The potential dangers of not understanding Covid-19 public health restrictions in dementia
In light of the new second wave of the pandemic, public health measures need to be simpler for PLWD to avoid unwilful non-adherence. Society also needs to be more adaptive to the needs of people with cognitive disabilities more widely, as blanket rules cause distress to the lives of those affected by dementia

The Social History of the Brazilian Samba
First published in 1999, this volume examines the impact of political, social and cultural developments on the nation’s most popular musical form, samba, in the context of the period 1930-45, one of huge social change in Brazil, with the introduction of industrialization under the authoritarian regime of Getúlio Vargas. She looks at the context in which the songs were written, the life styles and social positions of the composers (sambistas), and…
Stars and Stardom in Brazilian Cinema
Despite the recent explosion of scholarly interest in “star studies,” Brazilian film has received comparatively little attention. As this volume demonstrates, however, the richness of Brazilian stardom extends well beyond the ubiquitous Carmen Miranda. Among the studies assembled here are fascinating explorations of figures such as Eliane Lage (the star attraction of Sao Paulo’s Vera Cruz studios), cult horror movie auteur Coffin Joe, and Lazaro …

For whom do we forgive? A functional analysis of forgiveness
We propose that people forgive to serve particular functions, depending on the extent to which forgiveness is intended to benefit the self, the offender, and their relationship. Three studies on personally experienced transgressions in valued relationships ( N s = 233, 239, and 83) indicate that victims are more likely to forgive for the sake of the self and the relationship than for an offender. Relationship focus is associated with increased be…

Afro-Brazilian popular culture in Paris in 1922
This article interrogates the presence of Afro-Brazilian popular culture in Paris in 1922 in the context of bi-directional transatlantic currents between performance spaces in the French capital and in the city of Rio de Janeiro during this era. It focuses on a group of predominantly Afro-Brazilian musicians, the Oito Batutas, who performed in Paris between February and August 1922. This article highlights how transatlantic dialogues informed the…
The celebritisation of Carmen Miranda in New York, 1939-41
This article considers the process of celebritisation that Carmen Miranda rapidly underwent after arriving in the United States for the first time in 1939. It focuses upon the period she spent in New York (1939–41), performing on Broadway, prior to her move to Hollywood, and examines how she negotiated her move from Brazil to North America via a conscious process of auto-exoticisation, knowingly appropriating the self-tropicalising agenda of the …

Portuguese musical comedies from the 1940s and 1950s and the transatlantic connection
This article examines the broad patterns established by the first sound films produced in Portugal. Against the backdrop of the Salazar regime, it focuses in particular on the so-called comdia portuguesa, a cinematic tradition that proliferated in the 1930s and 1940s. It analyses in detail a paradigmatic example of this tradition, O ptio das cantigas/The Courtyard of Songs (1942). By the 1950s the conventions of these comedy films were hackneyed …
