Memórias do Futebol: infâncias em jogo

Abstract

In this book, football leaves the field to play with the word. It leaves the field to return as a game between remembering and forgetting in ten essays by researchers interested in this theme. The book takes memory as a raw material to consider our reflections on football, this game and sport that reaches different stages of life. Going beyond the contours of the playing field and breaking the boundaries between inside and outside, before and after, past and present, child and adult, the authors expose forgotten features in this cultural practice that, often, find no place in the productions about this theme.
