OverviewHuman production has developed a plurality of knowledge that, when studied, allows us to understand society and value difference, qualifying our symbolic codes. The author, within this perspective of analysis, has always been a very determined teacher, seeking to understand the knowledge produced by the body, through the body. Capoeira, as a bodily culture, was characterised for a time as a resistance movement. After that, it was seen as a transgression of the law and, in a third stage, as a sport. However, always marginalised, it had to transform itself to be accepted as a national identity. The changes that resulted ended up redefining capoeira and the body of the capoeirista. The author strives to decipher these changes, as the historical significance, the appreciation of the aesthetics of the capoeirista's body, and the determination to achieve perfect technique have, over time, put the process of transmitting this knowledge called capoeira in jeopardy. This becomes a reference work for understanding and organising a pedagogy that guarantees capoeira's status as indispensable knowledge."" - Mauricio Fidelis Full Product DetailsAuthor: Rafael ValladãoPublisher: Our Knowledge Publishing Imprint: Our Knowledge Publishing Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 0.50cm , Length: 22.90cm Weight: 0.113kg ISBN: 9786208443887ISBN 10: 6208443881 Pages: 76 Publication Date: 05 February 2026 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Available To Order We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
