Hendrik Kraay

Afro-Brazilian Culture and Politics

Bahia, 1790s-1990s

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The essays in this book constitute an analytic survey of the last two centuries of Afro-Bahian history, with a focus squarely on the difficult relationship between Afro- and Euro-Bahia and on the continual Afro-Bahian struggle to create a meaningful culture in an environment either hostile or suffocating in its ability to absorb elements of Afro-Bahian culture.
