Paul Claudel, Man and his desire, tropical forest, crossings of modernism, classicism and primitivismAbstract
This article analyses the ballet Man and his desire, created by Paul Claudel (poème plastique), Darius Milhaud (music) and Audrey Parr (set and costume design), when they were in Rio de Janeiro, in 1917 and 1918. The essential idea is to think this work as part of the cross-culture dialogues that founded the global modernity of the early 20th century, investigating the role of Brazilian culture and nature in Claudel’s project of articulation between avant-garde, classicism and primitivism.
