 note = {Literatura de Cordel is the generic name for popular booklets
common in north-eastern Brazil. Based on the author's collection of
over six hundred such booklets, this note explains some of their
characteristics and discusses the significance of studying them.
The most distinctive feature of Literatura de Cordel is its close association
with the local oral literature. It is written in verse, and, in
addition to being bought by literate persons, is recited or chanted by
a bookseller. This type of literary communication has two categories
of senders, i.e., author (poeta popular) and singer (cantador de folheto).
The cover is the sole visual element of the booklet and also an important
source of information about the author.
These booklets have different processes of diffusion than other
types of books. To describe such a booklet provides information
about aspects of this process and a thematic classification of their
contents gives a concrete image of the mental world of the northeastern
Brazilian. As such, Literatura de Cordel is an indispensable
topic in the comparative study of popular literature.},
