Football and Oral History in Brazil
About this book
This book examines the popularity of football in Latin America and the importance of sound archives in a country in which orality is the basis of important social relations.
The development of modern sports in the region is connected to wider national and state-building processes. In this sense, this volume aims to provide a historical overview of the making of the interface between these two important areas of social life in this main country of South American continent and its role in the construction of the political history of the sport in the region. Providing unedited angles and unexpected approaches, the authors provide a panorama of the historical development and contemporary intersection of football in Oral History field, and vice versa. The history of Brazilian society is barely known outside the region, so this volume seeks to tell this story, showing how innovation was key in the development of this sports modality, and overcoming traditional sources based on Journalism and Media.
This is a book that will appeal to those within the fields of Sport History and Latin American Studies.
