| contents | “Where are the Botocudos?” Anthropological displays and the entanglements of staring, 1882-1883 Georg Fischer Historia science popular culture national identity indigenous people Anthropological displays This article proposes an entangled perspective on nineteenth-century anthropological exhibitions. Whereas the existing scholarship mostly focuses on the receiving end of such displays or the agency of indigenous performers, this article argues for more stopovers and contextualization to grasp both the ambiguous position of non-metropolitan exhibitors like Brazil and the semantic transformations of traveling exhibits. In 1882, a group of Botocudo Amerindians was first taken to Rio de Janeiro and later put on display in Britain. Their presence in Rio sparked great interest, with lasting effects on the popular entertainment scene. Yet staring at them became a contested issue once they were taken to Europe, since Brazilians were concerned about becoming an object of Europe’s exoticizing voyeurism. 2019 artículo científico 0104-5970 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=386160665014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386160665014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386160665014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386160665014/386160665014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3861/386160665014/movil 10.1590/S0104-59702019000300014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3861 História, Ciências, Saúde - Manguinhos application/pdf Fundação Oswaldo Cruz História, Ciências, Saúde - Manguinhos (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.26 |
