Reviews
"""It is an original and important contribution to the study of public diplomacy and to the scholarship of Brazilian foreign policy. The book goes beyond anything done in the field so far and introduces a novel and insightful analysis.""--Daniel Buarque, King's College London, UK. “This is a very relevant book for Brazilian Studies in general. The author did a careful and meticulous study of one of the most impactful events for the Brazilian Modern Art and Diplomacy in the 20th century, the Brazilian Modern Art Exhibition in London in 1944. Through a criterios archival work, the author revealed the backstage of the diplomatic negotiations that took place before the works of art arrived in the UK. But it didn’t stop there. It analyzed the impact of this exhibition to the perception of Brazil abroad and for its incipient public diplomacy. Dialoguing art, history, nation building discourses, international relations theory and public diplomacy, this book will definitely impact the studies on these areas, bringing new lights, insights and critical approaches.”-- Vinicius Carvalho, King’s College London, UK. “Hayle has shown great enthusiasm and knowledge in studying this fascinating intersection between the histories of art and diplomacy.”--Michael Asbury, University of the Arts London, UK “""Public Diplomacy on the Front Line"" sheds light on a forgotten chapter of Brazilian history, blending art, diplomacy, and history into a compelling narrative. It highlights the significance of cultural exchange as a tool of diplomacy during wartime and aims to restore the exhibition's rightful place in Brazil's diplomatic and art history. The book combines meticulous research with a personal touch, making it an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in the intersection of art, diplomacy, and history during World War II.”--Andrea Matallana, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina "
