Os corpos cercados e o campo de concentração poética

As potencialidades da escrita no conto “Os corpos cercados”, inserido em Os pregos na erva (1962), de Maria Gabriela Llansol, vêm à tona por meio de “cenas fulgor” (expressão da própria autora) e pela permeabilidade das fronteiras entre os gêneros literários, o que dá origem a um texto em que a forma narrativa conto dialoga com a poesia. Esse aspecto híbrido desloca a narratividade para a textualidade, pois se divisa um enredo que se constrói pela quase total ausência de acontecimentos, enquanto o processo de experimentação com a linguagem domina. O espaço textual sugere um campo de concentração que sobrepõe corpos, sons, ritmo e imagens. Nesse sentido, pretendemos mostrar, no texto da escritora portuguesa, de que forma a estrutura do conto é atingida pela saliência dos momentos líricos, uma vez que aspectos peculiares à prosa cedem espaço, no conto de Llansol, ao afloramento da sonoridade e da expressividade.

A voz baudelairiana em Fleurs de Ténèbres de Villiers de L’Isle-Adam

Este estudo tem o objetivo de apresentar uma análise do conto “Fleurs de Ténèbres” publicado na obra Contes cruels (1883) de Villiers de l’Isle-Adam (1838-1889). O trabalho visa, ainda, de forma particular, destacar elementos que permitem apontar relações de aproximação entre o conto villieriano e os poemas em prosa “La corde” e “Le tir et le cimetière” de Charles Baudelaire. Com efeito, a influência baudelairiana na escritura de Villiers de l’Isle-Adam diz respeito tanto aos procedimentos estilísticos quanto ao idealismo filosófico.

Hemingway: ficionista e repórter

O artigo estuda um conto e uma crônica de Ernest Hemingway, textos sustentados por uma mesma fonte primária: o depoimento que um velho de perto de 76 anos deu ao Hemingway repórter, nas proximidades do rio Ebro, numa frente de combate da Guerra Civil Espanhola. O conto de 1938, “O velho na ponte”, constitui-se, assim, da mesma narrativa de fundação presente, primeiro, na reportagem, também de 1938, “O bombardeio de Tortosa”.

A causa secreta, secretas causas: nuances da ironia machadiana

Nesta releitura de “A causa secreta”, conhecido conto de Machado de Assis, publicado no volume Várias histórias, em 1896, explorar-se-á a maneira como o autor, em um conto aparentemente sério, constrói uma narrativa permeada pela ironia, entendida aqui não em sua concepção mais restrita, como figura da inversão, mas como modo de construção textual que leva à refl exão sobre a natureza e a função da literatura, a par do enfoque crítico acerca da sociedade contemporânea ao momento da produção do texto e sobre a condição humana.

O mito como fonte de criação literária

Partindo da teoria de Ramnoux, de que o mito se prolifera em variantes romanescas quando não desempenha mais sua função organizadora na sociedade, consideramos o mito de Mélusine uma variação fragmentada e modificada do mito da mulher-animal das sociedades de caça e coleta. Mélusine parece ter inspirado o conto A dama pé-de-cabra de Alexandre Herculano, no qual pnvilegiou-se o maravilhoso cristão, por isso encontramos neste somente os aspectos demoníacos do personagem mítico, pois não se trata mais do mito, propriamente dito, que reflete o contexto social, cultural e temporal de um povo. Em decorrência desse raciocínio, consideramos A dama pé-de-cabra uma criação literária que representa uma inversão do mito inicial.

Tradução e adaptação de The Fall of the House of Usher: um estudo comparativo

The aim of this work is to analyze the short-story The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allan Poe, and two of its versions into Portuguese: A Queda da Casa de Uhser, a translation by Brenno Silveira, published in 1959 by Abril, and the adaptation by Clarice Lispector, with the same title, published in 1975 by Ediouro. The original short-story was first published in 1840, in Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque, translated into Portuguese as Histórias Extraordinárias. In this work, we will identify the differences between a translation and an adaptation, as well as the construction of the grotesque universe in those different texts. By means of a comparative analysis from the selected corpus, we will deploy the ways each one constructs the effect wanted by Poe, highlighting the main semantic and structural differences present in the translation and the adaptation of the short-story in relation with the original. Lastly, we will try to show the losses and gains of an adaptation

No resumo de um só dia: tempo e memória em O burrinho pedrês de Gumarães Rosa

Memory, the ability of keeping and remembering past states of consciousness and everything that could be associated with them, is one of the human properties responsible for the construction of experience, knowledge and preservation of individual’s identity. However, recalling is also the way we keep relationships with time, factor that is essential and inherent to our existence and responsible for the fact that we have memory. As for the narrative, as for life, time is a prime category, because it is in time that narrated or experienced events happen. This relationship between time and memory is remarkable in “O burrinho pedrês”, Guimarães Rosa’s short story present in his debut book, Sagarana. In this story, we can notice, generally, the characters use memory as a way to return to the past, evoking, consciously or unconsciously, the experience and its result, the wisdom, to help on the understanding of present situations. So, this research has as objective to analyze how time and memory relate and become indispensable to the development of the narrative and to the construction of the other categories - character, narrator and space. The theoretical foundation is based on studies clustered in three dimensions: a) theoretical essays about Guimarães Rosa’s work in general and the particular short story b) philosophical and/or psychological propositions about memory and time, and c) propositions about the mentioned categories of narrative
