| Summary: | Although several agents took part in the construction of the memory of samba as Brazilian national music in the first half of the last century, the intellectual action of journalists from the daily and specialized press played a central role. However, there are still few studies on the practice and perception of these chroniclers in inventing a historiography of popular music. Eneida de Moraes (1904-1971), the first reporter for the Diário de Notícias, through her chronicles and, above all, in the book História do Carnaval Carioca (“History of Rio Carnival”, 1958), built a historiographical discourse that had in the carnival of Rio de Janeiro, and in a derived manner, the samba as its axis. This text intends to discuss exactly her role in this cultural and intellectual process and as how her discourse sought to value a certain conception of popular culture that had the carioca suburban carnival as a kind of resistance and utopia. |
