Description of The Invention of the Beautiful Game
In this cross-cutting cultural history, Gregg Bocketti traces the origins of football in Brazil from its elitist, Eurocentric identity as ""foot-ball"" at the end of the nineteenth century to its subsequent mythologization as the specifically Brazilian ""futebol,"" o jogo bonito (the beautiful game).
