| Sumario: | During the Cold War a number of intellectuals stood up to express theirsupport for one of the rival parties in the effort of defending their political beliefs. The studyanalyses the changes in attitude of a Brazilian writer, Jorge Amado, and his wife, Zélia Gattai,towards the Soviet Union and communist ideology, with a focus on their exilein Czechoslovakia between 1949?1952. While before this stay the couple could only see thelife in socialist countries during their short visits there, which were organized, moreover, bythe local governments, more than two years at Dobří chateau enabled them to experience thedark side of Stalinism. A detailed analysis of the work of both Brazilian intellectuals showsthat the couple found a lot of friends and valuable contacts in Czechoslovakia. Even theirdaughter Paloma was born there. However, at the same time, their stay in Czechoslovakiarepresents also the disillusionment and beginning of Amado´s break with the Communistparty. |
