"This catalog for the 1992 Zürich exhibition on Brazil is one of the most comprehensive works published to date on the history and arts of Brazil. Ranging from the early-16th century to the early 1990s, the included texts by an array of the finest historians, art critics, sociologists, art historians, and anthropologists examine the discovery and self-discovery of Brazil. A wealth of reproductions and photographic materials. Text in German only"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
