Algumas considerações sobre a poesia de Eucanaã Ferraz

The contemporary Brazilian poetic production is marked by a strong diversity in the forms of expression and the thematic contents that it makes circulate; it is found either turned to the critical reading of the Brazilian poetry‟s most traditional repertoire, or more concerned about the research of new expressive models afforded by language. Such constitutive diversity, which operates on the intermediate gradients between these two tendencies, finds itself underlined by the little orthodox practice of the production divulgation and circulation, that appropriated the internet and the poetic performances to compensate the low paper-based edition. What we have is a type of poetic dialectology which identifies the poetry readers group. Verifying the most regular procedures in the construction of the dialectology, through the work of Eucanaã Ferraz and João Cabral, is the objective of this paper.

Poesia visual brasileira no contexto de crise

In this project, we tried to analyze, in a very short way, the relations between Brazilian Visual Poetry and a phenomenon in modern literature known as crises of the verse. In sequence, we tried to situate this poetry in a provisory category which the current criticism sees it as the contemporary Brazilian poetry. For sure, the Concretism and its esthetics deployments assured space for the visually in poetry.

Silêncio e diálogo na poesia brasileira

This essay aims to contribute to a critical assessment of contemporary Brazilian poetry, investigating the relationship between two tendencies: minimalism that verges on silence of speech in Kléber Mantovani’s and Tarso de Melo’s poetry, and the dialogue with the tradition in Armando Freitas Filho’s, Fabiano Calixto’s and Iacyr Anderson Freitas’s poetry.

Os contos quase silenciosos de Lygia Fagundes Telles

Lygia Fagundes Telles elegeu em sua ficção temas instigantes como o fantástico e o insólito, ao lado de elementos relacionados aos problemas sociais e individuais. Manifestando a influência de autores brasileiros e estrangeiros, de Machado de Assis a Henry James, a autora assimilou novas formas para representar na narrativa breve o indivíduo solitário na cidade ou impotente na barbárie contemporânea. Este trabalho revisita exemplos da força dessa maturidade literária nos contos, assinalando a utilização das estruturas para evidenciar conteúdos temáticos.

Memória e testemunho em Maquis

The objective of this work is to analyze the novel Maquis, of the Spanish novelist Alfons Cervera, detaching the present hibridism of sorts in the work: historical novel, memories, testimonial story, besides the ethical dimension present in the collective memory claims of the maquis.

Orpotrin: A novel vasoconstrictor peptide from the venom of the Brazilian Stingray Potamotrygon gr. orbignyi

Characterization of the peptide content of venoms has a number of potential benefits for basic research, clinical diagnosis, development of new therapeutic agents, and production of antiserum. In order to analyze in detail the peptides and small proteins of crude samples, techniques such as chromatography and mass spectrometry have been employed. The present study describes the isolation, biochemical characterization, and sequence determination of a novel peptide, named Orpotrin from the venom of Potamotrygon gr. orbignyi. The natural peptide was shown to be effective in microcirculatory environment causing a strong vasoconstriction. The peptide was fully sequenced by de novo amino acid sequencing with mass spectrometry and identified as the novel peptide. Its amino acid sequence, HGGYKPTDK, aligns only with creatine kinase residues 97-105, but has no similarity to any bioactive peptide. Therefore, possible production of this peptide from creatine kinase by limited proteolysis is discussed. Taken together, the results indicate the usefulness of this single-step approach for low molecular mass compounds in complex samples such as venoms. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Camponeses Brazil's Peasant Movement in Historical Perspective (1946-2004)

Comparison of the histories of three leading peasant organizations in the Pontal do Paranapanema region of Brazil-the Partido Comunista do Brasil (PCB) from 1945 to 1964, the Confederacao Nacional de Trabalhadores na Agricultura (CONTAG) from 1964 to 1984, and the Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem-Terra (MST) from 1984 to 2004-suggests that continuity is as important as change in understanding Brazilian peasant movements. The MST has been considered a "new social movement" in that it has eschewed partisan politics, incorporated families as members rather than just male heads of household, had a national scope and a participatory decision-making structure, and been attuned to the international struggle over globalization. Placing it in historical perspective makes it clear, however, that this is not the first time that militants have organized around the concept of peasants as a political identity; that while the representation of peasants in the leadership of contemporary rural labor organizations may be greater than in the past, earlier peasant leaders also struggled on behalf of their class; that earlier peasant organizations had, if not a national presence, a substantial presence in the agricultural states of the time; and that attempts at international organization to unite peasant struggles around the globe are not entirely new. This is not to deny the innovative features of contemporary movements but to suggest that the investigation of past achievements will contribute to a fuller appreciation of these movements' conditions and prospects.
