A JewishGen InfoFile Brazilian Jewry – A concise history Bibliography – Resources Marc Raizman If you are here just to learn whether Jews know how to samba, let me assure you that they do.  During carnival time in Brazil, the Brazilian TV stations generally show scenes from Israel of Brazilian Jews dancing samba on the streets of Tel Aviv. Let me tell you about my credentials for this presentation. I was born in Porto Alegre, in the southernmost Brazilian state. In addition to my knowledge of Brazilian Jewish history, this presentation is based partially on the writings of my late father who in 1937 wrote a well-respected book entitled " Historia dos Israelitas no Brasil ". [The History of the Jews in Brazil]. (This is the book.)  He wrote this book both in Portuguese and Yiddish.  My dad was a journalist, edited a number of Brazilian Yiddish newspapers and was a part-time correspondent for the Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA). One important comment is needed here. The word "Israelitas," meaning Jews who are descendants of the tribe of Israel, is preferred to the word "Judeu" or "Judio," meaning Jews in Portuguese and Spanish, respectively. Unfortunately, in both languages, the word has bad connotations. "Judiar" means to hurt or to make someone suffer, to mock or abuse. Judeu means to be dishonest when dealing with others. (As you know, there is a similar usage in English. "to jew someone down.")

History Portuguese Discoveries First Settlements The Colonial Period The Union of Spain and Portugal ... Post War Brazil Portuguese Discoveries (1487-1497) The Treaty of Tordesillas (1494) settled the question of possession of the new lands between Spain and Portugal. It was agreed that territories lying east of a meridian 370 leagues west of the Cape Verde Islands should belong to Portugal, the lands to the west to Spain. This imaginary line, from pole to pole, cut through the eastern- most part of the South American continent and constituted Brazil's first frontier, although the formal discovery by Pedro Alvares Cabral did not take place until six years later in 1500. First Settlements (1530-1549) The Colonial Period The moist and fertile seaboard of what is now the State of Pernambuco was very suitable for growing sugar and also conveniently located as a port of call for sailing ships traveling from Portugal to West Africa and the Orient. The sugar plant and the technique of its cultivation had reached Brazil from Madeira. A flourishing triangular trade soon developed, based on the importation of slave labor from West Africa to work on sugar plantations. The sugar was exported to markets in Europe where rising demand was beginning to outrun supplies from traditional sources.

69. Brazilian Literature Contains history of brazilian literature divided into two periods, the colonial and the national. http://www.terravista.pt/PortoSanto/1086/literature-br.html

B razilian Literature, writings in the Portuguese language produced by inhabitants of Brazil. Three ethnic groups have contributed to the shaping of this literature: the native Indians, the transplanted Europeans, and the blacks, who were brought from Africa as slaves. The resulting cultural mosaic was given unity by a common tongue. Throughout the centuries after Portugal began (1532) to colonize Brazil, the Portuguese language established the particular character of Brazilian literature and the intimate relationship of the literature with that of the mother country. The history of Brazilian literature parallels that of other Latin American literatures; influenced by European thought and culture, it is readily divided into two periods, the colonial and the national. Colonial Period th century, in sermons rich with rhetorical devices and polemical exaggeration. Contemporaneous tendencies in Spain and Portugal were reflected by the satirist Gregório de Mattos Guerra (1633-96); his work ranged from delicate lyricism to outright vulgarity. By the second half of the 18 th century the literary hegemony passed from Bahia to the vigorous mining town of Minas Gerais. Of the several epics originating with this group, the outstanding was Uruguay (1769) by José Basílio da Gama (1740-95). This verse narrative deals with the war of Spain and Portugal against the Uruguayan missions. It depicts Indian life and customs with sympathy and even sentimentality. Friar José de Santa Ritta Durão (circa 1737-84) also belonged to the Minas Gerais school; his epic Caramurú (Sea Dragon) celebrated the discovery of Bahia. Although few masterpieces were written in the colonial period, the growth and economic betterment of the country permitted more Brazilians to turn to a career in letters.

Search Women's History Brazil - Women Encyclopedia of Women's History - from Jone Johnson Lewis Although women were allowed open access to schools and employment around the turn of the century and suffrage on a national level in 1933, they were not on an equal footing with men in family affairs. Men were automatically heads of households, and married women were legally subordinate to their husbands. Because of the inconvenience caused by informal remarriage, divorce was made legal in 1977. Under the constitution of 1988, women became entirely equal to men for all legal purposes. There is a considerable wage gap between men and women. According to one recent estimate, the differential between women and men is less pronounced in urban areas (for example, women earn on average 77.8 percent of men's wages in Rio de Janeiro and 73.6 percent in São Paulo), and most pronounced in the Northeast (where, on average, women earn 63.5 percent of the wages of men). Average wages are also considerably lower in the Northeast, where women's average hourly wages are 42 percent of the prevailing average in Rio de Janeiro. According to recent economic studies, only a small portion (between 11 percent and 19 percent of wage differentials in the formal labor force) can be attributed to differences between men and women in their endowments (such as education or experience). For the most part, the wage gap probably reflects discriminatory practices.

Their music often incorporated many popular musical instruments into classical orchestras. In the mid 1960's, the haunting, story-telling lyric of

Contents Summer Travel Travel Tips Summer Reading ... Current Issue Brazil Singing chef in Recife. Brazilian cooking history is in every bite of the country's food. Native Indians developed corn porridge, cassava meal, sweet potatoes, many roots, hearts of palm, many species of game and fish, and the preservation of meats by smoking and drying. In 1533, the Portuguese colonized Brazil. After a lengthy Moorish occupation, Portugal had adapted a variety of North African cooking traditions, among them coffee, dried fruits and pastries. These culinary customs were in turn exported to Brazil, with the twist of being prepared using local ingredients. The largest single influence on Brazilian cuisine came with African slaves. Dende, peppers and coconut milk, staples of West African cooking, became firmly established on the Brazilian palate. During the Nineteenth Century, slavery ended and an independent Brazil became a melting pot for immigrants from all over the world. Waves of new arrivals from Asia, Western and Eastern Europe and the Middle East brought kitchen traditions with them that put a truly eclectic spin on Brazilian cuisine. The nation's multiethnic and multifaceted cooking is always unique and delicious. Authors Joan and David Peterson present a brief portrait of Brazilian cookery, including its customs and some recipes from their book
