"In her authoritative new book, Maite Conde introduces readers to the crucial early
years of Brazilian cinema. Focusing on silent film released during the First Republic
(1889-1930), Foundational films explores how the medium became implicated in a larger
project to transform Brazil into a modern nation. Analyzing an array of cinematic
forms, from depictions of contemporary life, to fan magazines, to experimental avant-garde
productions, Conde demonstrates the distinct ways in which Brazil's early film culture
helped to project a new image of the country"--Provided by publisher
