Machado de Assis, Blackness, and the Americas Margaret O’Hea

Machado de Assis, Blackness, and the Americas Margaret O’HeaExamines the reception of Brazil's most canonized writer in the United States to shed light on questions of Blackness and hemispheric American experience. Considered a genius in his own lifetime, Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis (18391908) is Brazil's most canonized writer. Yet, he remains a contested and even enigmatic figure to readers in Brazil and abroad, his relative silence on slavery leaving him vulnerable to charges of aspirations to whiteness.
