PATATIVA DO ASSARÉ: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL LOOK ABOUT THE SPACE IN HIS POETHIC

This article approaches the image of the house and its possible nuances of habitation by Bachelard phenomenology, figured in Patativa do Assaré’s poetry, a poet from Ceara who brings in his literary writing the popular backcountry culture. Stresses the importance of the sertão as a dream place for the lyrical subject represented in the poems and the security that the space offers to the voices that enunciate. In this space, the traumas are revived and reinterpreted from a movement of atmospheric production of meaning, which means that the locus enunciated by the memory raises, itself and from itself, a framed effect sense of the subject who comforts and enables the dream.

LEITURA LITERÁRIA: ESPELHO E ESTRADA NA FORMAÇÃO DO SER

studying the literary production to children implies (a) an accurate look in order to choose among the several books published and (b) the definition of a theoretical corpus to shine a light on the selected text. This study aims at investigating the work “Menino do rio doce”, written by Ziraldo and illustrated by the Dumont family. It is a hybrid text made by two systems: the verbal and the visual, and it is analyzed as such. The verbal text is a poetic prose whose enunciative voice – a boy – is in third person and assumes a lyrical character. When he reveals his relationship with the river that flows in the village, the boy finds out his environment and realizes he’s inserted in a culture that characterizes the formation of an identity and his own self-knowledge.

THE GALICIAN-PORTUGUESE LYRIC AND THE 17TH-CENTURY LOVE POETRY: ARTS OF LOVE, SONGS AND WRITTEN SONGS

In this paper, we discuss important echoes of Galician-Portuguese lyric that remain in the 17th-century love lyric poetry produced in Portugal. In order to achieve this main objective, we highlight some specificities of the troubadours’ lyric and of the 17th-century poetry, particularly the fundamentally musical character of the troubadours’ songs as opposed to the fundamentally written character of the 17th-century poems. This contrast indicates that they are compositions from different times (predominantly the 13th and the 17th centuries) and produced according to distinct poetic conceptions. However, they are compositions which are also similar in many ways, and whose similarities, especially regarding the lyrical genre, point to similar quests for perfect practice of love, outlining “arts of love” understood as unsystematic precepts of loving which are practiced in poetry. In this article, we intend to show that these poetic loves are technically conceived and, as historical constructs, they differ from each other, since they are characterized by their peculiar moments of achievement. However, they are not isolated in the time. As mentioned above, the troubadours’ songs are essentially musical while the 17th-century poems, as indicated by the prevalent poetic preceptive in their time, are essentially written. Nevertheless, those trobar songs reverberate in these poems (“written songs”) and in both kinds we read and listen to similar precepts of love, as though we were in labyrinths of love echoes with no way out.
