Thomas Mann: um escritor contra o nazismo

O combate que Thomas Mann travou contra o nazismo a partir de 1922 é exemplar, pois é o de um escritor apaixonado pela liberdade e não o de um militante. Ele privilegia a ficção e o mito como meios de luta contra o fascínio exercido pelo nazismo e afirma a permanência de uma Alemanha cultural, cosmopolita, fonte de uma universalidade estranha a todos os particularismos étnicos. Goethe, com quem ele se identifica e no qual se projeta, é a figura de proa dessa Alemanha.

Rosa Luxemburg: breve perfil de uma revolucionária

O presente texto, que serve de apresentação à série de cartas traduzidas pela A. e publicadas a seguir junto ao original alemão (Karl Kraus), esboça em rápidos traços a personalidade de Rosa Luxemburg, tendo como pano de fundo a cultura do seu tempo. Procura-se sugerir que se Rosa é uma personagem tão rica e interessante, isso deve-se ao amálgama, existente na sua formação, entre a Bildungsbürgertum e a atmosfera revolucionária proveniente da Rússia.

Julia Franck: tradução de contos da escritora alemã e o uso de memórias de tradução

The objective of this project is to present a literary translation from three short stories of German contemporary writer Julia Franck into Portuguese. The selected short stories are “Bäuchlings”, “Zugfahrt” e “Streuselschnecke” from the book Bauchlandung: Geschichten zum Anfassen (2008). In this project, I present also a small overview about assisted translation tools, including the Translation Memories, and their use by some translators and my experience as a novice user of this tool and the creation of a German-Portuguese glossary based on the translated short stories

A tradução do conto Lange Schatten de Marie Luise Kaschnitz

The principal objective of this project is to present a literary translation from German to Portuguese of the short story 'Lange Schatten', in the collection of the same name, Lange Schatten Erzählungen, published in 1960, written by Marie Luise Kaschnitz. Kaschnitz was born in 1901 in Karlsruhe, south-west Germany. The translation was completed with the aid of virtual and printed dictionaries, in addition to books on the history of German literature and some translation theories. Also, this paper provides brief commentaries on topics related to translation, particularly those concerned with the difficulties posed by translation of this project

A recepção de Shakespeare na Alemanha

This is an article about a decisive moment in the formation of Western modern literature. We are talking about Lessing’s criticism of the excessive influence of neoclassical French theatre on German theatrical production. Lessing considered that the aristocratic model imported from France did not correspond to German society’s context at all – society which had already been marked by an incipient bourgeois mode of life. So the German critic dedicated his theoretical efforts to affirm the necessity and to raise possibilities about a literary production which had more consonance with what he considered to be the German Zeitgeist. It is in Shakespeare’s work that Lessing found his answer, and this fact will unleash the appearing of the Sturm und Drang movement and will consequently give birth to an incipient bourgeois literature. So we analyze here the way this Shakespearian influence happens and its relevance in the formation of a bourgeois literature.

Provocação para um resgate na construção das relações literárias Brasil/Alemanha

The present article starts from the initial consideration that, in the perspective of the investigations of the Brazil/Germany literary relations, not always the study of the presence of Brazilian literary works in Germany has been receiving sufficient attention in Brazil. Initially, the natural existence of mental paths is signalized. This fact, in a way, guides the general lines of the critical Brazilian thought in the consideration of aspects of the cultural and literary dialog here in question. This consideration favors the movement that goes from Germany to Brazil, which doesn’t give enough space for the study of the opposite movement. Finally, some historical literary elements are presented, which can base deeper studies of the literary relations Brazil/Germany in the sense that here is intended to be rescued, i.e., the one that goes from South America to Europe.
