Description

This dissertation examines how Brazilian and Spanish American public intellectuals working in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries used the essay to examine issues of national and broader regional identity, and more specifically, the question of Brazil's role in Latin America. In my preface and introduction I make the case for the importance of comparative Luso-Hispanic analyses, an emerging but still minority approach in Luso-Brazilian and Latin American studies. I then propose that Brazil is both a necessary and problematic part of any viable definition of Latin America, and I argue that Spanish American and Brazilian essayists have dealt with the question of Brazil's necessarily problematic position in the Americas in terms of a double-sided movement defined on the one hand by Spanish American identity projection (the discursive presentation of Brazil as part of Spanish America), and on the other by Brazilian selective, pragmatic approximation to Spanish America (recognition of shared political and economic interests, but not of cultural or historical ties). I develop this thesis in chapters on Jose Enrique Rodo, Joaquim Nabuco and Alfonso Reyes, and in a conclusion that addresses the work of Sergio Buarque de Holanda. I make secondary mention of several other Brazilian and Spanish American writers and public figures, including Simon Bolivar, Jose Bonifacio de Andrada e Silva, Euclides da Cunha, Ruben Dario, Jose Marti, Eduardo Prado, and Jose Verissimo.
