"Tao ruim que e bom" - Susan Sontag in Portuguese
I first got the news that Susan Sontag passed away today through a this BBC Brasil article which also reprinted an interview from October 2003 titled "For Sontag, Lula is the 'most promising thing' in the world" [Sontag achava Lula a 'coisa mais promissora' do mundo]. There, she discussed the significance of Brazil's then-recent presidential election, as well as placing her own much-lambasted statements within a larger whole of dissent within the US - a defense in front of an international audience that would be much appreciated by those drowned out by the outrage that the US continually inspires. Statements like these have buttressed the views of other Brazilian political writing. In an interview in Globo from June 2003 - "40 years of polemics, audacity, and notoriety" [Quarenta anos de polemica, ousadia e reconhecimento] - she offered the same hopeful assesment of Brazil's president.
Finding Ms Sontag elsewhere:
A New York Times obituary [login/pw:betacorpo].
"Notes on Camp".
"Fascinating Fascism."
"Regarding the Torture of Others."
"Against Interpretation" [via spittingImage].
Biography, bibliography, quotes.
"The 'Traitor' Fires Back," an October, 2001 interview.
A June, 2000 interview
