International expositions: a historiographic approach from Latin America

Posted | 0 comments

December 2017

Nelson Sanjad, a historian from the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, in Belém, was commissioned to write on international expositions.

Pavilion of Argentina, Paris Expo, 1889

The essay International expositions: a historiographic approach from Latin America was possible thanks to a grant we received from the Wellcome Trust. It examines the historiography of international exhibitions, the first of which was held in London, in 1851.

These events were seen as geopolitical phenomena of modernity to which are associated the rise of middle classes, nationalist and colonialist movements.
