Parallel to these debates, and yet ultimately inseparable from them, is the question of what it is to be “white.” In this interdisciplinary paper, we argue that whiteness has become increasingly established in Brazilian public discourse as a naturalized category. Seeking a fresh perspective on what we perceive to have become a sterile debate, we examine Machado de Assis and his work to illustrate how assumptions surrounding his short story “Pai contra mãe,” and indeed comments on the author’s very body, reveal the extent to which whiteness has come to be seen as nonnegotiable and fixed. Placing a close reading of Machado’s text at the heart of the article, we explain its implications for the scholarly debates now unfolding in Brazil concerning the construction of whiteness. The article then develops an anthropological reading of whiteness by pointing to the inherent differences between perspectives of race as a process and perspectives of race as a fixed and naturalized given.Submitted by Suelen Reis (suziy.ellen@gmail.com) on 2014-04-01T13:35:47Z No. of bitstreams: 1 10.1353lar.2013.0046.pdf: 372786 bytes, checksum: 620a8355f6aa0632a11afc8780e610c9 (MD5)Approved for entry into archive by Oliveira Santos Dilzaná (dilznana@yahoo.com.br) on 2014-08-01T14:48:25Z (GMT) No. of bitstreams: 1 10.1353lar.2013.0046.pdf: 372786 bytes, checksum: 620a8355f6aa0632a11afc8780e610c9 (MD5)Made available in DSpace on 2014-08-01T14:48:25Z (GMT).
