O baú da República: mobilidades e memórias em Leite derramado
Abstract
The article examines the intertwining of memory and space in the novel Leite derramado, by Chico Buarque, arguing that the spatial mobilities and the temporalities in the trajetory of the centenary narrator-protagonist, Eulalio Montenegro d’Assumpcao, outline a political cartography of Brazil, with special emphasis on Republican modernity.
