BRAZILIAN HISTORY:
1968
Death of poet Manuel Bandeira (1886- 1968)
Manuel Carneiro de Souza Bandeira Filho was born in Rua da Ventura, what is now Joaquim Nabuco (Pernambuco). His father worked for a railway company; therefore his family had to move various times between the states of Pernambuco, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo. At young age, TB was diagnosed, and Manuel had to go to Switzerland for treatment. One year later, he published his first verses. Manuel studied architecture and arts in São Paulo. During the twenties of the past century, he regularly published poetry bundles and prose, sometimes financed by himself. His fiftieth birthday was celebrated abundantly, and one year later, he was appointed as a professor. In 1940, he was admitted to the Brazilian Academy of Literature. During the fifties, more works of Manuel were published, which included some translated works of Shakespeare and Cocteau. In the same period he traveled in Europe. Manuel died in 1968.
“…o sol tão claro lá fora,
o sol tão claro, Esmeralda,
e em minhalma — anoitecendo.”

1982
Closure of the dam of the Itaipu hydro-electric power station.
Itaipu, at the border between Paraguay en Brazil and at a stone’s throw of the famous waterfalls of Foz do Iguaçu, was a prestigious project. Until the inauguration of the Three Gorges Dam in China, Itaipu was the largest in the world. A nature park, that was similar to that of Foz do Iguaçu, was sacrificed. Remains of that park are exhibited in the Itaipu ecological center. In 1978, a start was made with the opening of a canal, in order to construct the dam. In 1982, that lake – with a size of 1350 square kilometers – was filled within fourteen days only. In 1984, the hydro-electric power station was inaugurated. At present, the station generates about 90 percent of the Paraguayan and less than 25 percent of the Brazilian energy.

1978
Ratification of the decree that made an end to the infamous AI-5 on 1 January 1979.
The decree was ratified by President Geisel. AI5 (Ato Institucional Número Cinco) was introduced in 1968, at the time of the military dictatorship. IT was one of the most rigid decrees, which inactivated habeas corpus: anyone could be arrested without the right of defense. In addition, the congress was dissolved. The laws, carried out by senators, congressmen and Councillors, became invalid. Political reunions were banned, and the president was allowed to declare martial law, and censure became more rigid.
