Brazil

As a result of an intense mixture between peoples emerged a peculiar cultural reality, which synthesizes various cultures.
The tension between what would be considered a popular and scholarly culture has always been quite problematic in the country. For a long period of history from the discovery of Brazil until the mid-nineteenth centuries and XX, the gap between popular culture and learned culture was fairly wide: the first was meant to be a true copy of royalties and European styles, the second being formed by the alignment of the cultures of different peoples who formed the Brazilian people in a set of values, aesthetic and habits rejected and despised by the elites. Much of the modernist aesthetic project was precisely to recover in the fields considered "noble" culture (the arts in general, literature, music, etc..) and even the daily habits, seeing it as a legitimate Brazilian culture.

In addition to the decline of indigenous peoples, there was a catechetical activity and intense mixing, which contributed to many of these cultural aspects were lost. The Indian influence became stronger in certain regions of the country in which these groups managed to maintain greater distances from such groups and bringing people in populated areas recently, particularly those portions the Northern Region of Brazil .
