Against this complex background, performative theory offers significant new meanings. In ritualistically integrating Bakhtinian categories of free interaction, eccentric behavior, carnivalistic misalliances, and the sacrilegious, Ilê Aiyê anchors its social discourse on showcasing the black race as a critical agency of beauty, pride, wisdom, subversion, and negotiation. Ilê Aiyê carnival is not only racially conscious, it heightens the conflicts by dislocating the very establishment that invests in its cultural politics. In fusing the sacred, the profane, the performative, the musical, with the political, Ilê Aiyê succeeds in indicting racism, ironically sacrificing the very power it pursues. Despite these limitations, Ilê Aiyê creatively engages alternative dialogues on Brazilian politics through sponsored performances across transnational borders.. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Africa; African culture; African history; Americas; arts; Brazil; culture; globalization; history | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-137-59870-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-59870-7Series ISSN 2634-5773 Series E-ISSN 2634-5781 | issn_series | 2634-5773 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
