Football National identity Imaginary Essay Brazilian intellectuals ABStRACt: This article aims to show how the social history of football in Brazil can be used to reflect on nationhood. The text is based in an analysis of essay gender, both from foreign and Brazilian authors, as well as several books on Brazilian history and identity through the study of football. Although the essay genre has been privileged by many intellectuals who sought a totalizing understanding of the country, this very type of writing has been mobilized for interpreting social representations around the professional practice of football. This text argues that the identity synthesis franchised by the idea —of artistic and/or culturalist order— of a unitary «country of football» ends up eliding social and economic differences in the construction of modern Brazil as an «imagined community».
