Representing the Good Neighbor: Material For “Representing the Good Neighbor: Material for U.S. and Brazilian Relations during World War II” A thesis submitted by Isabel Loyola in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Tufts University May 2018 Adviser: Peter Winn i Abstract The thesis focuses on U.S. and Brazilian relations during World War II. In an effort against the spread of European fascisms in Latin America, the United States started a mission to secure Brazilian loyalty. For Brazil, to break relations with the Axis, was a difficult choice. Given that it had a well-established trade relation with Germany and a numerous German, Italian, and Japanese immigrant populations. Brazil saw U.S. interest as an opportunity to gain much needed profitable economic agreements that would advance the development of the country into a regional and international power. In this mutually beneficial agreement propaganda played an important role; it crystalized the partnership. Two examples have been chosen to analyze how the campaign reflected wartime representations of Brazil for a U.S. audience: the Brazilian Pavilion for the 1939 New York World’s Fair, and the wartime films of Carmen Miranda. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my professor Peter Winn and professor David Ekbladh for helping me develop this project, from its beginnings as a final essay to this thesis. I would like to thank the History Department and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences for awarding me with the funds needed for my multiple research trips. Thank you for believing in my project. This process would not have been the same without the support of faculty, administrative staff, friends, and family. These last three years of graduate education have been full of sacrifice, challenges, laughter, learning, and dedication. This thesis is the materialization of that. Finally, I would like to dedicate this thesis to my grandmother, mi güeli Mary.

An attitude of good neighbors was to rule this new period of intercontinental dynamics. Even though this declaration was not made into official policy until the middle of the 1930s, it still made a profound mark on the history of the Americas. Never before (and arguably not even after the end of World War II) a similar rhetoric fed U.S. foreign policy where collaboration and understanding were over imposed domination. While this change in policy was being developed in the United States, Brazil, Latin America’s biggest country was changing as well. A political and military revolution in 1930 changed the direction in which the country was going. Getulio Vargas, the head of the Brazilian government, came to power in 1930 with the intention to inaugurate a new stage in State development. The created new ministries, new legislation, and a new relationship with the intellectual and cultural movements of the past decade renovated Brazilian nationalism. These changes would prefigure the attitudes that each country was going to have once the world conflicts reached an overwrought point and World War II dominated international relations. The United 1 States had to secure strategic alliances with the American Republics, a challenge that would prove slow and contested by Latin American governments that distrusted, with good reason, the United States. Thirty years of American aggression in Central America and The Caribbean, accompanied by a quickly expanding economic and cultural presence in Latin America, had made “the other Americans” very hesitant to fully ally themselves with the United States. Brazil became one of the most important targets of American diplomacy in the late 1930s. This was because of its military strategic geographic position, its supply of raw materials for the war effort, and because it would be an important sign to the rest of the continent that even a country with an active Nazi party and pro-fascist government would break away from the Axis into the Allied forces. Yet Brazil would not make this transition easy, or cheap. The material we will be analyzing was created to support and encourage a Good Neighbor bilateral relationship that would foster a formal agreement to secure this hemisphere against antagonist international forces. While doing this, it is our purpose to suggest that because it was a Good Neighbor Policy-era relationship the character behind the production of the material was collaborative between the two governments. This implies that the Brazilian government had an important role to play in the construction of such material. Because it was in the best interest of both governments to have popular support when entering wartime negotiations, both sides needed the material to 2 portray Brazil in a positive manner. The main evidence used will be the Brazilian Pavilion for the 1939 New York World’s Fair, and a selection of the wartime films that feature Brazilian actress and singer Carmen Miranda. The topic of wartime relations between the United States and Brazil is hardly a new one. It represents important efforts by both countries to advance their own national and international agendas. And it is a relationship in which many important historical figures had a role to play; diplomacy alone is just a fraction of all the governmental agencies, and private enterprises and people that got involved. A review of bibliography available on such a topic is necessary to frame the argument we are trying to convey. The spectrum of themes within this topic go from studies centered on Brazil’s context during the 1930s until the end of the war in 1945, to analysis and descriptions of U.S. institutions (both that preceded the war and those created because of the war) in charge of international affairs in the late 1930s – 1940s. Because of the nature of the material selected as evidence to support our argument, the cultural relations aspect of the bilateral relationship are of the greatest importance. The bibliography that analyzes this aspect of the bilateral relation can be organized in at least two groups: the authors that study the impact of U.S. influence in Brazil, and those that study 3 representations of Brazil created by Americans for an American audience. Author Neill Lochery studies in his book Brazil: The Fortunes of War: World War II and the Making of Modern Brazil (2014), how the wartime relationship between the United States and Brazil impacted Brazil’s economic development. As he mentions his interest is to tell a story that has never been fully told, how Brazil went “miraculously” from a “[...] lush but neglected tropical backwater to one of the most dynamic nations in South America, and indeed in the entire world.”1 Lochery’s analysis states that that “miraculous” change started with the beginning of World War II. The development of Brazil into a modern nation is in large part due to the economic-military alliance the country signed with the United States in the early 1940s. This resulted in a new steel mill, new roads and railways, improvements in Brazilian agriculture, and in a transformation of Brazil’s military forces. Lochery also directly connects the U.S-Brazilian alliance as one of the reasons why Getulio Vargas’ regime fell in 1945. A different perspective on how the United States influenced Brazil is the one studied by Lori Hall-Araujo; even though her study is not exclusively centered on wartime relations, it reflects on other ways in which the United States influenced Brazilian reality. The popularization of American mass media, cinema, radio, and publishing (including 1

  • Canções E Modinhas: a Lecture Recital of Brazilian Art Song Repertoire Marcía Porter, Soprano and Lynn Kompass, Piano
    Canções e modinhas: A lecture recital of Brazilian art song repertoire Marcía Porter, soprano and Lynn Kompass, piano As the wealth of possibilities continues to expand for students to study the vocal music and cultures of other countries, it has become increasingly important for voice teachers and coaches to augment their knowledge of repertoire from these various other non-traditional classical music cultures. I first became interested in Brazilian art song repertoire while pursuing my doctorate at the University of Michigan. One of my degree recitals included Ernani Braga’s Cinco canções nordestinas do folclore brasileiro (Five songs of northeastern Brazilian folklore), a group of songs based on Afro-Brazilian folk melodies and themes. Since 2002, I have been studying and researching classical Brazilian song literature and have programmed the music of Brazilian composers on nearly every recital since my days at the University of Michigan; several recitals have been entirely of Brazilian music. My love for the music and culture resulted in my first trip to Brazil in 2003. I have traveled there since then, most recently as a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Universidade de São Paulo. There is an abundance of Brazilian art song repertoire generally unknown in the United States. The music reflects the influence of several cultures, among them African, European, and Amerindian. A recorded history of Brazil’s rich music tradition can be traced back to the sixteenth-century colonial period. However, prior to colonization, the Amerindians who populated Brazil had their own tradition, which included music used in rituals and in other aspects of life.

  • Carmen Miranda, Uma Pequena Notável
    CARMEN MIRANDA , UMA PEQUENA NOTÁVEL : REPRESENTAÇÃO E IDENTIDADE NACIONAL NA DÉCADA DE 1930 Káritha Bernardo de Macedo * 1 Carmen Miranda nasceu Maria do Carmo Miranda da Cunha, em 9 de fevereiro de 1909, em Portugal, mas logo ganhou de seu tio materno o apelido de Carmen, por lembrar uma espanhola tal qual a popular personagem da ópera de Bizet 1. Ainda bebê aportou no Brasil junto de sua família. Nesta cidade nasceram seus irmãos, o pai se estabeleceu como barbeiro e a família montou uma pensão na Travessa do Comércio. Esta, por sua vez, era frequentada por vários músicos, como Pixinguinha e seus amigos, atmosfera que contribuiu com o gosto de Carmen pela música (MENDONÇA, 1999, p.40-42). A carreira profissional de Carmen começou em fins de 1929 com o auxílio de Josué de Barros, quando esse conseguiu que a Brunswick gravasse um disco de Carmen. Porém, insatisfeitos com a gravadora, a dupla foi atrás da Victor, estadunidense recém estabelecida no Brasil que fechou novo contrato. Em 1930, é lançada em pleno Carnaval a canção “Taí”, que fez de Carmen um sucesso (CASTRO, 2005, p. 45-48; 52). * Mestranda do Programa de Pós-Graduação em História com área de concentração em História do Tempo Presente, linha Linguagens e Identificações (2012), bolsista da CAPES; Graduação em Moda com Habilitação em Estilismo pela Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina-UDESC (2011); Graduação em Direto pela Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina-UFSC (2007). 1 Carmen, uma ópera do compositor francês Georges Bizet, é uma das quatro óperas mais famosas do século XIX.

  • Heitor Villa-Lobos and the Parisian Art Scene: How to Become a Brazilian Musician*
    1 Mana vol.1 no.se Rio de Janeiro Oct. 2006 Heitor Villa-Lobos and the Parisian art scene: how to become a Brazilian musician* Paulo Renato Guérios Master’s in Social Anthropology at PPGAS/Museu Nacional/UFRJ, currently a doctoral student at the same institution ABSTRACT This article discusses how the flux of cultural productions between centre and periphery works, taking as an example the field of music production in France and Brazil in the 1920s. The life trajectories of Jean Cocteau, French poet and painter, and Heitor Villa-Lobos, a Brazilian composer, are taken as the main reference points for the discussion. The article concludes that social actors from the periphery tend themselves to accept the opinions and judgements of the social actors from the centre, taking for granted their definitions concerning the criteria that validate their productions. Key words: Heitor Villa-Lobos, Brazilian Music, National Culture, Cultural Flows In July 1923, the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos arrived in Paris as a complete unknown. Some five years had passed since his first large-scale concert in Brazil; Villa-Lobos journeyed to Europe with the intention of publicizing his musical output. His entry into the Parisian art world took place through the group of Brazilian modernist painters and writers he had encountered in 1922, immediately before the Modern Art Week in São Paulo. Following his arrival, the composer was invited to a lunch in the studio of the painter Tarsila do Amaral where he met up with, among others, the poet Sérgio Milliet, the pianist João de Souza Lima, the writer Oswald de Andrade and, among the Parisians, the poet Blaise Cendrars, the musician Erik Satie and the poet and painter Jean Cocteau.

  • “O Que É Que a Bahiana Tem”--Carmen Miranda (1939) Added to the National Registry: 2008 Essay by Katherine Bishop-Sanchez (Guest Post)*
    “O Que é que a Bahiana tem”--Carmen Miranda (1939) Added to the National Registry: 2008 Essay by Katherine Bishop-Sanchez (guest post)* Carmen Miranda Early label In 1938, the Brazilian actress and popular singer Carmen Miranda (1909-1955) starred in her fifth Brazilian produced film, “Banana da Terra” (Sonofilms) and performed, among several musical numbers, the samba “O que é que a baiana tem?” composed by Dorival Caymmi. This samba would become Miranda’s signature song, indelibly connecting the Brazilian singer to the figure of the baiana or Afro-Brazilian woman from Bahia. In Brazil, Miranda recorded the song with Dorival Caymmi at Odeon Records in 1938, and then again with her band, Bando da Lua, at Decca USA, in December 1939. The title of this song can be translated as “What does the girl from Bahia have?” making reference to the Afro-Brazilian women from Bahia who can be seen in urban centers throughout Brazil selling their savory dishes on street corners. Their typical dress includes a wide, often white, hooped skirt, a loose-fitting cotton blouse trimmed with wide lace, a striped shawl draped over the shoulder or around the waist, a turban, sandals, and numerous necklaces and bracelets. The typical baiana dress is a staple of Carnival festivities, candomblé religious ceremonies and other religious festivities throughout Brazil such as the popular festivals of Bonfim in Salvador, Bahia. A large ensemble of women dressed as baianas has been one of the most important wings of official samba school Carnival parades since the early 1930s. Carmen Miranda’s performance of “O que é que a baiana tem?” in “Banana da Terra” became memorable because of the synergy between her costume and the lyrics of the song.

During this process we are confronted with factors that in abstract ways, give it life. Thoughts, expressions, feelings and objects, merge to create what we interpret as a private or public space, becoming real after conviviality emerges. The space likewise becomes historical, through the accumulation of events, carrying with the weight of a place that records the details of our coexistence. André Mendes exemplifies how contemporary art provokes a serious debate about our own history, and demystifies the visual sensations that we have accumulated throughout centuries. His artworks were created inside an ancient Parisian cloister from the XIVth Century but he used ecological contemporary material. Photo maquette André Mendes Lula Ricardi presents his minimalistic artworks using architecture as the basis for his creations. Architecture is one of his strongest supports. Behind his architect's eye there is always a critical observation of our political status. According to Divino Sobral the artist is “moved by restlessness and the need to displace his field of work and his means of expression. He does not consider himself a photographer, facing photography as another visual resource that he can apply to his work to establish a dialogue to the world.” Marcelo Solá developed a long research on architecture and culture of Brazilian black ancient communities, their habitat and their way of living.
