Coroa da terra: a poesia como (re)criação do mundo

This monograph is aimed at reflecting the internal structure of the book Coroa da Terra (1946), the Portuguese poet Jorge de Sena (1919-1978), investigating for this, the guiding criteria for the ordering of poems. Starting from a question posed by an author paratext, we considered the possibility that the book is constituted as a unit of poetic path, in which each poem comprises a stretch of the pilgrimage undertaken by the poet toward the crown of the Earth. Moreover, from the epigraph of the book and the Preface (1960) of 1st edition of Poesia I (1961), we consider the idea that the Coroa da Terra is a search for truth, or even that the pilgrimage made by the poet is on the trail of a poetic word conscious and therefore ethically responsible. This search would set the poetic language of testimony, from which derive two other important vectors for the exegesis of poetry seniana: metamorphosis and pilgrimage. Upholding the unity of the book would be the language in dialectical flow as a formal procedure, which enables the poet be an expression in constant motion. To check the validity of our hypothesis, we conducted an analysis of four poems in sequential order (―Purgatório‖, ―Suma Teológica‖, ―Os trabalhos e os dias‖, ―Espiral‖). To them, it was added to analyze the poem ―Metamorfose‖, poem 23rd of the Coroa da Terra, which acted as a reference point and as close to the research by presenting a character's thought seniano synthesis. It was found that the idea of unity is sustained when we consider Coroa da Terra as a journey of formative poetic direction

A poesia de Adélia Prado: expressão feminina do cotidiano e do sublime

This work aims to locate Adélia Prado’s poetry in the scenery of the contemporary Brazilian literature in order to comprehend some issues that are part of the manner how the poet constructs her poems and which may elucidate, through the lyric speaker, the relation of her poetry with the historical and cultural moment in which her work is placed. In this sense, the purpose of this study is to analyze Adélia Prado’s poetic construction by emphasizing the female voice of her lyric speaker and the superposition of elements from the semantic fields of the prosaic and the sublime, since we have identified these aspects as basic ones for the development of an interpretation on this poetry. This way, we have tried to comprehend the connection that the poet establishes between the material and the spiritual, the erotic and the religious, the immanent and the transcendent and we have concluded that, for the poet, everything can be subject to poetry. For this work, we used the volume Poesia reunida (1995) for it provides a wider view over Adélia Prado’s poetry

O Mestre, de Ana Hatherly: uma insólita aprendizagem

O mestre (1963), written by the Portuguese author Ana Hatherly, continues to challenge our reading due to its disturbing nature. The text is not only connected to and transcends the emerging modernity of the Portuguese poetic avant- -garde experimental proposals of the period, presenting itself as a permanent intriguing text. This paper examines the narrative procedures put into action in order to destabilize the relationship I – the Other (master and apprentice), multiform agents, producers of metamorphosis and disturbing actions. The female narrator addresses love, truth, knowledge and power in an uncommon way and transforms the narrative into a magic practice, with surprising effects.

O relógio do Rosário anuncia A máquina do mundo: Haroldo de Campos relê Drummond

Considering fragments of the haroldian poem A Máquina do Mundo Repensada, this paper approximates Drummond and Haroldo de Campos. In this poem, the poetic person’s unquietness conducts him to very peculiar displacements: the one that concerns to the end of millennium, marked by the utopia’s collapse, by the subjectivity fragmentation, by the frontiers’ reconfiguration between people and places. Assuming what the drummondian fatigued eyes have seen, the poet Haroldo de Campos will (re)think his world disharmony

A forma poética do mundo: notas sobre o poema em prosa "Paisagem", de Julien Gracq

In this article, we examine the landscape “locus” by reading a poem in prose of Julien Gracq’s collection “Liberté grande”. Our aim is to understand how the poet uses rhetorical strategies in order to recreate or create – by means of the verb, the space around him. The term “rhetorical strategy” is used here in its broadest sense, and relates to devices that the poet uses to give iconic visibility to the space described, exploring the landscape through language and in this way unraveling a bit of  the poetic form of the world

O sagrado em A máquina do mundo repensada de Haroldo de Campos: lições dos midrashistas

In this article we aim to discuss the treatment given to religiosity and sacral in the poem A Máquina do Mundo Repensada (AMMR), published in 2000. In spite of the existence of Bible transcriations made by Haroldo de Campos, especially in the last years of his life, we have made an option to discuss this in the poem because in its pages the religiosity and the sacral amalgamate with the poetic, revealing an interesting creative work.

Um tempo para a literatura ou a vida entre o labirinto e a bússola

Since the priors, man has been trying to understand the concept of time. From myth to quantum physics, time is something that inspires reflections on our own lives. Do we exist in time or for time? Literature, a peculiar form of knowledge, deals with the experience of time in many ways. By avoiding categorizations, literature converges time and space in a dimension in which labyrinth and compass converge: at the reading time, in the reader’s space, in the universe of the book, where Cronos, Kairos, and their heir, by excellence, the literary word, constellate. In this way, in this essay, I discuss some aspects of the relationship between literature and time, or still, what literature can teach us about the time.

Um jogo de mapas ou sobre engano geográfico de Marília Garcia

This essay aims to analyze the book Engano geográfico Marília Garcia, published in 2012. It is a long narrative poem that recounts a trip through Spanish and French landscapes, and which allows to question various shifts of the poetic voice. One of them, marked by the duplicity between geographic and poetic journey which I could characterize as a be­ 76 Revista semestral do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras – UFES tween-place given by the sign of waiting. A second, through a dialogical instance that allows a process of depoetization of the language with its permeability to other voices. Finally, through the presence of several pronouns “I”, “he”, “she”, “you”, without explicit textual reference, and that would indicate a kind of closeness of the loving attention.

O labirinto dificultoso da poesia de Frederico Barbosa

Frederico Barbosa’s poetry builds an intricate and amazing maze of words and meanings in which negativity and emptiness concepts emerge to be the expressing voice of the lyric subject. This article aims to follow the routes of this poetry in terms of its poetic and linguistic procedures, of giving shape to its critical point of view on poetry itself and on the fears and edges of humanity.

Os labirintos da memória em Orfãos do Eldorado de Milton Hatoum

This article aims to analyze aspects of Orfãos do Eldorado (2008), by Milton Hatoum, to elucidate the plot construction by the use of memory, which articulates three narrative perspectives: the mythic, the social-historic and the mythic-social-personal. This process presents as a result a textual configuration marked by a contemporary diction, by the creative work and by a certain lyricism that allows us to say, as Tania Pellegrini and Alfredo Bosi, that there is a ‘revisitated’ regionalism in this author work.

Leitura em Ambientes Cíbridos: a cosmo(a)gonia geométrica de Patrick Burgaud

Contemporary culture is showing us, with growing evidence, that fields of knowledge and spheres of action interpenetrate strongly, forcing us to change behavior in order to connive with the productive and creative new ways. Our scope is to consider the cybrid environment in which we situate the reader in his relations with the poetic productions created in the digital world, from the perspective of a contemporary context of reading done through interfaces and also by a reading of a poem by Patrick Burgaud.

O cisne noutros lugares ou Da impossibilidade de esquecer a dor

Taking into consideration the previous critical interpretations about Baudelaire’s poem called “Le cygne” (Benjamin, Oehler, Barbosa), this article highlights some relevant aspects about allegorical structure, seeking to demonstrate how the feeling of exile and the melancholy, which define the poetic individual and which represent underlying themes in Baudelaire’s poem, can be read through a frame of reference which links both historical-political and psychoanalytical interpretations.

A poesia essencial e o sublime nos anos 1930

This  paper  attempts  to  investigate  a  part of  Brazilian’s modernism poetic tradition starting  from the notions of “sublime”,”essential poetry” and “pure poetry”. Such notions seem to constitute both the critical projects of Alceu Amoroso Lima and Graça Aranha, as well as they allow to consider partially the trajectories of Joaquim Cardozo, Emílio Moura, Henriqueta Lisboa and Augusto Frederico Schmidt in face of the vanguards.
