Perrone (Portuguese and Luso-Brazilian literature and culture, U. of Florida) explores thematic aspects of Brazilian poetry of the late 1980s onwards, selecting the poets and poems to be studied in terms of their "articulating a bi- or multilateral disposition and/or manifesting hemispheric spirit." Seven thematic chapter discuss transamerican poetics in the age of globalization and their engagement with the geographical term "America," plus its variants; Brazilian engagement with US-American English and poetry; the "America-scape" in Brazilian poetry involving expressive media other than literature, including comics, film, popular music, icons of tourism, and US-originated digital worlds; neo-epical works by Brazilians envisioning the Americas as a whole; Brazilian-Hispanic American relations in contemporary lyric and efforts to cultivate commonalities; the application of the modernist notion of poetry for export and hemispheric ethics to popular music, particularly the hybrid phenomenon known as mangue beat; and concluding thoughts.
