Résumé :
Um Brasil de Circos: a produção da linguagem circense do século XIX aos anos de 1930 (A Brazil of Circuses: the Production of Circus Language from the 1800s to the 1930s) is an impressive work. Its 520 pages are filled with rigorously presented data from 42 circus companies that performed in Rio de Janeiro during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Its review highlights the main point of the book to emphasize its contribution to the history of the circus arts in particular, but also to the performing arts as well as social history in general.
