| Summary: | This article proposes to revisit the basis of the imaginaries of Latin-american modernity, as an object of study of the History of Sensibilities. The emotions are emphasized, creating a sense of belonging based on the difference between Latin and Anglo-Saxon identities. Translating codes, exposing passions and scandals; in social life, the dance is crucial for this discussion. In the 1910´s, the "nouvelle danses" (Tango and Maxixe) were successful in Paris. Historiography about the theme promoted the idea of European mimesis. By turning over this referential, this article focuses on the creative action of cultural agents, their ability to re-elaborate values and invent new words. The use of space is chosen as a reference for the constitution of a Latin identity in dialogue with France. |
