%X this article argues that anthropology should not avoid studying the world of art and the specialized fields of cultural production. to do this it is necessary to examine the relationship between ethnography, language and social processes, as well as the way in which we make use o four sources (written, oral and visual) in our research. while this is the basic argument of the text, it also moves into a discussion of the sources that are available for the social history of the theater and brazilian intellectual life from 1940 to 1960: photographs, interviews, reminiscences, biographies, autobiographies as well as books and theater repertories.
