TOWARDS A DISCURSIVE LOOK TO THE SUBJECT AND SENSE PRODUCTION IN THE AESTHETIC FIELD OF LITERATURE

This paper aims at presenting an epistemological discussion of the literary fact in order to build a theoretical and conceptual understanding of how subjects and senses can be analysed in the discursive dynamic of the Literature aesthetic field. From the theoretical place of discourse analysis (DA), especially Pêcheux’s ideias in synchrony to dialogical polyphonic assumptions developped by Bakhtin Circle, and from literature concepts in Barthes, Blanchot and Foucault’s studies, it is its goal to put up a theoretical reflection on the dynamic of meaning and subject construction in the literary space as a way of a starting-support-reflective point that can help those who interests and seeks an analysis exercise of the literary by a discursive prism.

When the illusion is sacred and Truth, Unholy: aesthetic legitimacy in Clarice Lispector and Carolina Maria de Jesus

What is in Hora da Estrela, by Clarice Lispector, missing in O quarto de despejo, by Carolina Maria de Jesus, to which only the first is considered "fiction"? The question is less obvious than it seems and the answer is steeped in power relations. Purpose of this article is to discuss how the definition of what is (or is not) literature, the literary relationships that establish the canon and thus the formation of the History of Literature permeate the question of aesthetic legitimacy. In the first part of the article, "How and why consider such and such works as 'literature'?" Tract of the relationship between literature and more value added in terms of understanding the birth of fiction. In the second part, "The truth of the unholy Hora da estrela," argue about the intimate relationship between Clarice Lispector, Rodrigo S. M. and Macabéa, to demonstrate the symbiosis between the three; configured as a work that is intended less fictional than what understand it. The third, "The illusion sacred in Quarto de Despejo" attempt to demonstrate how the book of Carolina Maria de Jesus matches all criteria that Richard Shusterman (1998) points out how certain work that needed to be considered "literature", making it a fiction more than what the caption printed on it ("Diary of a slum") reveals.

Advertising to children in Brazilian families: a critical discourse analysis of reception

This article aims to contribute to the understanding of the reception of advertising to children in Brazilian families. The topic of children's advertising has gained importance in recent years because of the civil movements for regulation by-law of advertising to children in Brazil. In view of the various interests at stake, the matter has been the subject of discussion and controversy. Therefore the objective of this paper is to cooperate to the debate, in order to understand the reception of children's advertising in family dynamics. We chose here the focus in the perspective of mothers and fathers. Four semi-structured interviews for the mothers and fathers of children aged between six and 10 years, conducted in two schools in the Distrito Federal, were analyzed. The category ‘appraisal’ was considered for analysis of positions, behaviors and feelings present in the discourse of the parents. The reflections were guided on Critical Discourse Analysis and reveal that advertising to children has been responsible for a determinate disharmony in the family environment, while at the same time strengthen traditional roles of social actors.

CRITICAL RECEPTION OF HILDA HILST´S LITERATURA

This paper aims to show how, contrary to what Hilda Hilst said in many interviews, his writing always had a guaranteed space in the press and has been increasingly studied in academia. Complaints of writer she was unread, proceed only if we consider that, although many critics of repute have written about his work, none of them leaned over time on the work Hilst´s literary work, nor did a more extensive and thorough study about it. Something that happened with the works of Guimarães Rosa and Clarice Lispector, for example. The desire of Hilst  was to be popular, readable, hence its repeated outrage, but ten years after his death, although there is a whole movement around her public figure, what we think is that her texts never popularizing.
