Gilberto Freyre - Encontros - Gilberto Freyre - Bog

Encontros (Meetings) is the largest and most prestigious book collection of interviews with Brazilian artists and thinkers. With more than 50 published titles, Encontros provides a broad panorama of Brazil's cultural and intellectual wealth. Gilberto Freyre was one of the greatest Brazilian intellectuals, author of classics such as "Casa Grande & Senzala". The interviews gathered here reveal aspects of the complexity of his thought: innocent and shrewd, autobiographical and impersonal, poetic and scientific, provincial and universalist. Above all, he's a great writer, with his colloquial and intimate prose, abused and brilliant, that imposes itself in a familiar conversational rhythm without losing the thread of the great revelations.
