Summary/Abstract: One of the most prominent texts of Brazilian Modernism, written by Oswald de Andrade, poet and co-founder of the local artistic avantgarde (Manifesto Antropófago, “Revista de Antropofagia”, May 1928). The rapacious anthropophagic metaphor becomes not only an act of establishing Brazilian art and a bold settling of accounts with the local past but also – together with all the good and bad consequences – a symbolic foundation act of Brazilian society.
