Research Interests: I am currently working with Brazilian literature of the 19th and 20th century. My main research focus is how the melodramatic mode shaped Brazilian nationalistic literature's relationship with race and desire. Therefore, I am analyzing operas, theater plays and novels. In my non-academic time, I am often writing about opera, you can read me at OperaWire or (if you read in Portuguese) folha de são paulo.
