Book description

Book description
For many foreign observers, Brazil still conjures up a collage of exotic images, ranging from the camp antics of Carmen Miranda to the bronzed girl (or boy) from Ipanema moving sensually over the white sands of Rios beaches. Among these tropical fantasies is that of the uninhibited and licentious Brazilian homosexual, who expresses uncontrolled sexuality during wild Carnival festivities and is welcomed by a society that accepts fluid sexual identity. However, in Beyond Carnival, the first sweeping cultural history of male homosexuality in Brazil, James Green shatters these exotic myths and replaces them with a complex picture of the social obstacles that confront Brazilian homosexuals.Ranging from the late nineteenth century to the rise of a politicized gay and lesbian rights movement in the 1970s, Greens study focuses on male homosexual subcultures in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. He uncovers the stories of men coping with arrests and street violence, dealing with family restrictions, and resisting both a hostile medical profession and moralizing influences of the Church. Green also describes how these men have created vibrant subcultures with alternative support networks for maintaining romantic and sexual relationships and for surviving in an intolerant social environment. He then goes on to trace how urban parks, plazas, cinemas, and beaches are appropriated for same-sex erotic encounters, bringing us into the world of street cruising, male hustlers, and cross-dressing prostitutes.Through his creative use of police and medical records, newspapers, literature, newsletters, and extensive interviews, Green has woven a fascinating history, the first of its kind for Latin America, that will set the standard for future works.Green brushes aside outworn cultural assumptions about Brazils queer life to display its full glory, as well as the troubles which homophobia has sent its way. . . . This latest gem in Chicagos World of Desire series offers a shimmering view of queer Brazilian life throughout the 20th century.вЂ”Kirkus ReviewsWinner of the 2000 Lambda Literary Awards Emerging Scholar Award of the Monette/Horwitz TrustWinner of the 1999 Hubert Herring Award, Pacific Coast Council on Latin American Studies
