- This output is a 80,000-word monograph, resulting from a sustained period of intensive research (funded by a Junior Research Fellowship at St Catharine’s College, Cambridge) in the UK and Brazil. The book studies Orientalist discourses in Brazil across a number of different media, from novels and poetry to manga and photography. Through analysis of archives in Rio de Janeiro (the Instituto Moreira Salles photographic archive) and São Paulo (archives held by the Universidade de São Paulo), the book employs a corpus of previously unstudied material to construct new critical insight into changing conceptions of race and immigration in the Americas.
