A Bilingual Anthology of Selected Works\" is Professor Curran's return to research and writing from his first days in Brazil in 1966-1967 on a Fulbright Hays Fellowship for Ph.D. dissertation work. This book treats \"Cordel's\" best known and arguably best poet, a translation to English of his selected works, and a commentary on his pioneering days of the \"Literatura de Cordel.\" Among the poet's topics were the changing times, foreigners in Brazil, government-politics-and war, mothers-in-law, sugar cane rum, religion and satire, banditry, the oral poetic duel, and the long narrative poems from the European popular tradition. Curran in addition gives a synopsis of the \"Literatura de Cordel\" as it was in its heyday in his initial research in the 1960s. The translation was a challenge but also a great pleasure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 286\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.25 x 7.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 03, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42157540573319,"sku":"9781698711294","price":48.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/bb888c8cb84318e9966c17ef4f1091e3.webp?v=1733251652","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/the-master-of-the-literatura-de-cordel-leandro-gomes-de-barros-a-bilingual-anthology-of-selected-works-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
