“…by research that focuses primarily on the events of the World War and the October Revolution of 1917 to explain the radical aesthetic positions of poets and artists rather than on the coming to terms with the traumatic experience of a deadly epidemic. 10 This blind spot in the research is all the more astonishing in the case of regions that did not directly take part in the war or were not affected by the war on their own territory, and it warrants further research.…”

“…Liane Bertucci likewise often refers to memoirs in her study. 10 The study Die Kunst der Zerstörung. Gewaltphantasien und Manifestationspraktiken europäischer Avantgarden (2001) by Hanno Ehrlicher is an interesting example of this, because it teases out the bellicose terminology of the avant-garde aesthetics of awakening against the background of the First World War.…”

Pandemic Avant-Garde Urban Coexistence in Mário de Andrade’s Pauliceia Desvairada (1922) after the Spanish Flu

The radical aesthetic of the historical avant-garde movements has often been explained as a reaction to the catastrophic experience of the First World War and a denouncement of the bourgeoisie’s responsibility for its horrors. This article explores a blind spot in these familiar interpretations of the international avant-garde. Not only the violence of the World War but also the experience of a worldwide deadly pandemic, the Spanish flu, have moulded the literary and artistic production of the 1920s. In this paper, I explore this hypothesis through the example of Mário de Andrade’s famous book of poetry Pauliceia desvairada (1922), which I reinterpret in the light of historical studies on the Spanish flu in São Paulo. An in-depth examination of all parts of this important early opus of the Brazilian Modernism shows that Mário de Andrade’s poetic images of urban coexistence simultaneously aim at a radical renewal of language and at a melancholic coming to terms with a traumatic pandemic past

“…My investigation will concentrate on this latter practice, with a warning that I have not found evidence of the former method of acquisition in nineteenth-century Salvador, except the case of an African freedwoman who bequeathed a slave to her still enslaved son. 10 No legislation in Brazil guaranteed the possession of any property by a slave. Regarding slaves specifically, the Roman legal tradition of servus vicarius was not incorporated into the colonial Portuguese legal code (the Philipine Ordinances) still in force in independent Brazil for things related to slave property.…”

Slaves Who Owned Slaves in Nineteenth-Century Bahia, Brazil

It was not uncommon in Brazil for slaves to own slaves. Slaves as masters of slaves existed in many slave societies and societies with slaves, but considering modern, chattel slavery in the Americas, Brazil seems to have been a special case where this phenomenon thrived, especially in nineteenth-century urban Bahia. The investigation is based on more than five hundred cases of enslaved slaveowners registered in ecclesiastical and manumission records in the provincial capital city of Salvador. The paper discusses the positive legal basis and common law rights that made possible this peculiar form of slave ownership. The paper relates slave ownership by slaves with the direction and volume of the slave trade, the specific contours of urban slavery, access by slaves to slave trade networks, and slave/master relations. It also discusses the web of convivial relations that involved the slaves of slaves, focusing on the ethnic and gender profiles of the enslaved master and their slaves.

Horizontality in the 2010s: Social Movements, Collective Activities, Social Fabric, and Conviviality

Horizontality is a salient social phenomenon of the last decade. It asserts itself against hierarchies in social movements and countless other collective practices around the world. It constitutes a characteristic of an emergent sociality that demands the attention of the social sciences. The 2010s are a moment as important as “the Sixties”, a time when Ivan Illich called for the development of tools of conviviality, and horizontality may be categorized as one of them. Today’s horizontality may be related to that of populations that have been the focus of anthropologists interested in their longstanding propensity to work against the affirmation of the authority of commanding. Public squares, roundabouts, and the courtyards of apartment buildings welcome the early symptoms of democratic experimentation that circulates also among groups, collectivities, and associations with varied purposes. In all these places, equality asserts itself and cuts across differences. The Yellow Vests and an educational cooperative in São Paulo are the empirical foundation of this study.
