Cinema, corpo, boxe: suas relações e a construção da masculinidade

Year: 2006

Type: article

Abstract: Considering that sport and cinema are \ntypical cultural manifestations of modernity, \nthat both had established strong \nrelationships and that they consist in \nefficient pedagogical tools, this study has \nfor purpose to discuss the representations \nof masculinidade in movies that had incorporated \nboxe in its plot. If in its origin \nthe sport is understanding as a masculine \nsocial practice, boxe appears as hyperbolic \nexpression of this affinity. What kind of \nideas of man, in its relation with the body \nand the directions and meanings of modernity, \ncan be identified in movies that \nhad represented such sport?
