Abstract

In this papper I analyse the seductive effect that the past provokes in texts dedicated to the historiographic treatment of dance in Brazil, identifying the authoritarian character that the sources have exerted in the academic and non academic works on the history of dance in the country. To do so, I consider bibliographic productions published from the 1960s to the 1990s that mostly present this profile and demonstrate the procedures by which the information contained in the sources are uncritically replicated in books. The study uses sources written in printed journals and methodological procedures of cultural history.
