A Master on the Periphery of Capitalism: Machado De Assis - Post-Contemporary Interventions
Roberto Schwarz
A translation (from the original Portuguese) of the author's study of Brazilian novelist Machado de Assis (1839-1908). It focuses on Machado's "The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas". It investigates how social structure gets internalized as literary form, arguing that Machado's style reveals the embedded class divisions of 19th-century Brazil.
