Deslizar nas ruas, entre Mário de Andrade e Max Jacob

This essay intends to point to a possible dialogue between Mário de Andrade and Max Jacob, starting from the books of poems Paulicéia desvairada (1922) and O losango cáqui (1926), Le cornet à dés (1916) and Le laboratoire central (1921). Divided into three parts, it investigates the figuration in the two poets of the harlequin’s image, through which both would operate several displacements. One of them, the resumption of a romantic mythology of the artist, as in Baudelaire, and the conscience of his staging character. Other, through the opposition between reason and madness, legitimating a lyrical state as a way to a different perception of the reality. Lastly, through the proposition of an artistic sincerity, moral of work with deep impact over the literary language.

Georges Gusdorf e a autobiografia

Considering the premise that there are few theoretical reflections in the Portuguese language, concerning the autobiography as a genre, we propose to present a work addressing this issue by discussing the writings of George Gusdorf (1912-2000). One of the most expressive French scholars on this field, alongside Philippe Lejeune and Jean George May, and Starobinsky, Gusdorf stands out for his vast production centered on theoretical issues concerning the writings of the self. The study presented here aims at disseminating Gusdorf writings in Brazil, as well as presenting a critical analysis of the most pertinent issues related to the autobiographical genre, including aspects such as its origins, the blurred boundaries of genre, truth and sincerity, the relations between time and memory, self-knowledge and knowledge of the world.
