A crítica alegórica de Grande sertão

Como têm sido publicados, em número crescente, trabalhos baseados na noção/conceito de alegoria sobre a obra rosiana, dos quais alguns têm tido repercussão e visibilidade nos meios acadêmicos – pela seriedade e também pela originalidade com que analisam seu objeto –, examinamos três estudos que tratam a obra de Guimarães Rosa, sobretudo Grande sertão: veredas, como alegoria histórico-política e social do Brasil: de Heloisa Starling, de Willi Bolle e de Luiz Roncari, que, recentemente, sobretudo os dois últimos, publicaram estudos alentados nessa direção. Esses autores têm procurado realizar uma reinterpretação de Grande sertão: veredas a partir da concepção de alegoria, em especial, a de Walter Benjamin, estabelecendo um paralelismo entre o romance rosiano e estudos de historiadores e sociólogos como Oliveira Vianna, Caio Prado Jr., Sérgio Buarque de Holanda, Raimundo Faoro, Gilberto Freyre. Trata-se de leitura que tem raízes, principalmente, nos ensaios de Antonio Candido e de Walnice Nogueira Galvão e que, pelo modo de interpretar a relação realidade/obra de ficção, traz implicações que merecem ser discutidas.

Memória e cinema: representação da guerrilha no filme Lamarca (1994)

Um dos maiores divulgadores de visões de mundo no século XX, o cinema, se apresenta como uma fonte preciosa para a reflexão do historiador. Neste sentido, realizamos uma análise fílmica de Lamarca (1994) procurando refletir sobre as opções realizadas pelo diretor Sérgio Rezende em relação ao tema. Essa análise nos ajuda a enxergar em que sentido esse filme insere-se na disputa pela memória, sobre o período ditatorial brasileiro que se inicia nos anos de 1960, notadamente o confronto entre as forças armadas e os focos de guerrilha dos anos 60 e 70 do século passado.

Injuries by marine and freshwater stingrays: history, clinical aspects of the envenomations and current status of a neglected problem in Brazil

Stingrays are a group of rays - cartilaginous fish related to sharks - that have whiplike tails with barbed, usually venomous spines and are found around the world, especially the marine species. Despite recent reports of accidents involving these fish, they are not aggressive, reacting only when stepped on or improperly handled. Injuries by stingrays are seldom mentioned by historians, although they have always been present in riverine communities of inland waters and in South American coasts. Indeed, envenomations by stingrays are quite common in freshwater and marine fishing communities. Although having high morbidity, such injuries are neglected because they have low lethality and usually occur in remote areas, which favor the use of folk remedies. In the present review article, historical aspects of injuries caused by stingrays in Brazil and their distribution on the coast of Sao Paulo state and riverine communities of the North, Midwest and Southeast regions were studied. In addition, other aspects were analyzed such as clinical features, therapeutic methods, preventive measures and trends in occurrence of these accidents in the country, particularly in areas in which freshwater stingrays had not been previously registered, being introduced after breaching of natural barriers.

A mediação da informação nos arquivos permanentes: serviços de referência arquivística no ambiente digital

Information Science has for its object of study the general properties of information and analysis of their construction, communication and use processes. Organic information, one of the information types, is the one recorded in the archives, which can be split into two distinct groups based on users: current and permanent, used by administrators, historians/citizens, respectively. After defining the information behavior of each group, the articles directs the discussion to the mediation of information in the permanent archives. The interaction between user and information professionals through references services aiming the user needs is presented. In addition, the standards of archival description and the research instruments as tools to reference service are discussed. Moreover, it argues the importance of information technologies and the new possibilities for the promotion of organic information in permanent archives, especially concerning the information architecture of websites and the conversion of the DTD standards of archival descriptions.

Caio Prado Jr. e o intelectual marxista hoje

This article proposes to engage in dialogue with the work and the trajectory of Caio Prado Júnior, one of the most influential historians and Marxist intellectuals of Brazil. The intention is not to evaluate his production in detail, nor follow the relationships she had with the Brazilian society and the historian’s political options, something already conducted by several researchers. Instead, its intention is to “use” his trajectory and style to freely reflect on some traces of Marxism in Brazil and especially on certain dilemmas inherent in the performance of the Marxist intellectuality. Caio Prado Jr. will, therefore, be treated here as a parameter for a broader reflection on the intellectuals.

História ambiental: um olhar prospectivo

Examination of methodological approaches and work possibilities for historians in the research and teaching of history of environment, its themes and potential objects of studies. The attention to books and articles helps on this balance and on the identification of future routes for the Environmental History in Brazil. This historiographical practice has been keeping, among us, a salutary opening for the dialogue with the foreign historiography, with an increasing valorization of the research in Latin America and with social science and natural subjects. The incipient Foreign Exchange Program suggests the tasks and the success found by this approach will be result of the interaction between researchers, projects in group, circulation of publications and institution strengthening of the historical knowledge in the beginning of the century.

O Ensaísmo na Historiografia Brasileira

In this paper we analyze the question of character essayistic the historiography of the first half of the twentieth century. We examined this issue due to the emergence of a new trend on the historiographical colonization (School of Rio) who criticizes, among other things, the essay-like character in historiography. Whereas the criticism expressed how a new trend breaks with the existing historiography, we decided to examine this critical gauge. To promote the overcoming of a certain history is necessary to understand it in its historicity, that is, the motivations that led historians to examine the history of a given way. Of course, criticism is a moment of transcendence. But to be a radical departure is necessary to understand the historiography of historical criticism and not simply point their supposed mistakes, shortcomings and failures.
