"Brazilian Literature" by Isaac Goldberg is a scholarly examination of Brazilian literature written in the early 20th century. This work provides a comprehensive overview of its historical development, exploring the influences and contributions of key figures in the literary scene. Goldberg aims to illuminate the evolution of Brazilian literature, celebrating its complexities and the cultural fusion that characterizes it. The opening of the text sets the stage for a deep dive into Brazil's literary history, beginning with an exploration of its early roots in Portuguese and Indigenous cultures, as well as the influences of African heritage. Goldberg outlines the literary milieu of Brazil, addressing the varying contributions and unique blending of these cultural threads. He discusses how Brazil's socio-political climate, particularly during the period of colonization and subsequent independence, shaped its literature. The initial chapters introduce the foundational figures, such as José de Anchieta, who laid the groundwork for Brazilian storytelling, and Gregorio de Mattos, whose satirical voice marks a distinct cultural expression in its evolving literary identity. Through this introductory analysis, the author sets up a more detailed exploration of specific periods and prominent writers in Brazilian literature that follows.
