Abstract

The recently released Hall’s Cultural Representations has two long articles from courses given by the Jamaican intellectual at The Open University in London in the 1990s: the first presents the author’s version for the so-called “linguistic turn” in the “representation” studies in the cultural context from the Saussurean structuralism to Michel Foucault; in the second, starting from a compilation of images that comprises more than a century, Hall exposes and analyzes the formation and naturalization in the media of the nexus between racial difference and black body’s subalternization. These are lucid, well-argued and generous contributions for cultural studies in Brazil.
