- Abstract
(lang="eng")
- The Brazilian and Portuguese governments approached the First World War in very different ways. Nevertheless, it seems at the very least possible to study Brazil – beyond just the Portuguese immigrant community – alongside the rest of the Lusophone world when it comes to the experience of the First World War. In no other country on earth was there as much interest – as measured in newspaper column inches – in the Portuguese experience of the war. Brazilian intellectual interventionists not only used the Portuguese case to argue for their country’s involvement in the conflict, they even called for a new understanding between the two countries, united by history and a common language. Moreover, no other country was as immediately targeted, in propaganda terms, by Portuguese intellectuals and governments, as Brazil. The key is to establish precisely the means through and the extent to which events in Portugal and the Portuguese rhetoric regarding the conflict affected Brazilian public opinion – and the actual influence which propagandists of both nationalities, as well as Portuguese politicians and diplomats, had on Brazilian decision-makers.
- Abstract
(lang="por")
- Os governos brasileiros e portugueses abordaram a Primeira Guerra Mundial de maneiras muitos diferentes. Contudo, parece ser possível estudar o Brasil — além da comunidade portuguesa de imigrantes apenas — do lado do resto do mundo lusófono quando tratamos da experiência da Primeira Guerra Mundial. Em nenhum outro país da terra houve tanto interesse — tendo como medida o tamanho das colunas nos jornais — na experiência portuguesa da guerra. Intervencionistas intelectuais brasileiros não apenas usaram o caso português para efetuar envolvimento brasileiro no conflito; eles recomendaram um novo entendimento entre os dois países, unidos pela história e por uma língua comum. Ademais, nenhum outro país além do Brasil foi alvo de tanta propaganda lançada por intelectuais e governos portugueses. A chave é estabelecermos os meios pelos quais (e até que ponto) os eventos em Portugal e a retórica portuguesa sobre estes conflitos afetaram a opinião pública brasileira — e a influência que propagandistas das duas nações, junto com políticos e diplomatas portugueses, tiveram nos brasileiros responsáveis pelas decisões.
