This article presents a brief discussion about the aspects that involve the conception of modernity inserted in the participation of Brazil in the Universal Expositions of the second half of the 19th century. Especially from the example of the Philadelphia Exposition in 1876, problematizing the counterpoint usually addressed between Technological development and exhibition of natural resources by historiography. It intends to show how Brazil was inserted in these great international events from the divulgation of its natural wealth, as part of the construction of a certain notion of modernity that served the interests of several proprietary sectors in the country.Downloads
