CRUZ, Fábio  e  CURI, Guilherme. Interculturality in the Musical Work of Robert Plant. RLEC/LJCS [online]. 2023, vol.10, n.1, pp.197-211.  Epub 30-Jun-2023. ISSN 2184-0458.  https://doi.org/10.21814/rlec.4140.

This scientific essay analyses and discusses the concept of interculturality across the work of the musician Robert Plant, from his early career to the present day. We seek to contribute to what we call the “intersectional mainstream” and to understand the locus of interculturality throughout the singer’s 40-year career. Our main question is: what are the musical limits of Plant, who is recognised as one of the greatest rockers of all time and who has always sought dialogue with other musical genres and cultures? To answer this and other questions, we based our text on the theoretical communication assumptions of Muniz Sodré’s (2006, 2014), and Néstor García Canclini’s (2005) and Homi K. Bhabha’s (1998/2014) postcolonial precepts on interculturality. Based on the analysis of Plant’s work, we conclude that the musician’s challenging approach of dialogues and intersections remains to this day, cyclical and dialectical, the guiding star of the artist, who is not content to be just mainstream, much less a static mainstream, but an artist immersed in cultural dialogues and always willing to transcend market barriers.
