O acaso, o poeta e a re-visão da ciência no límen do milênio

O Canto II do poema A Máquina do Mundo Repensada, de Haroldo de Campos (2000), é inovador ao trazer, para o cerne de um texto composto em terza rima, a ciência como protagonista da mensagem poética veiculada ao longo dos versos. Se na primeira parte do poema há um retorno aos textos da tradição, na segunda, ainda que esses diálogos permaneçam sub-repticiamente, o impulso para novos horizontes é assegurado pelo ingresso do tema científico no poema, que impulsiona o eu-poético a novos caminhos e estreita as possibilidades de estabelecimento do texto literário como palco das descobertas da ciência, ao mesmo tempo que questionador dessas descobertas. No Canto II do poema haroldiano, objeto de análise neste artigo, o desbravar das fronteiras da literatura tangencia o desbravar das fronteiras da ciência. Isso faz de Haroldo um poeta do “absolutamente novo”.

Coroa da terra: a poesia como (re)criação do mundo

This monograph is aimed at reflecting the internal structure of the book Coroa da Terra (1946), the Portuguese poet Jorge de Sena (1919-1978), investigating for this, the guiding criteria for the ordering of poems. Starting from a question posed by an author paratext, we considered the possibility that the book is constituted as a unit of poetic path, in which each poem comprises a stretch of the pilgrimage undertaken by the poet toward the crown of the Earth. Moreover, from the epigraph of the book and the Preface (1960) of 1st edition of Poesia I (1961), we consider the idea that the Coroa da Terra is a search for truth, or even that the pilgrimage made by the poet is on the trail of a poetic word conscious and therefore ethically responsible. This search would set the poetic language of testimony, from which derive two other important vectors for the exegesis of poetry seniana: metamorphosis and pilgrimage. Upholding the unity of the book would be the language in dialectical flow as a formal procedure, which enables the poet be an expression in constant motion. To check the validity of our hypothesis, we conducted an analysis of four poems in sequential order (―Purgatório‖, ―Suma Teológica‖, ―Os trabalhos e os dias‖, ―Espiral‖). To them, it was added to analyze the poem ―Metamorfose‖, poem 23rd of the Coroa da Terra, which acted as a reference point and as close to the research by presenting a character's thought seniano synthesis. It was found that the idea of unity is sustained when we consider Coroa da Terra as a journey of formative poetic direction

O sagrado em A máquina do mundo repensada de Haroldo de Campos: lições dos midrashistas

In this article we aim to discuss the treatment given to religiosity and sacral in the poem A Máquina do Mundo Repensada (AMMR), published in 2000. In spite of the existence of Bible transcriations made by Haroldo de Campos, especially in the last years of his life, we have made an option to discuss this in the poem because in its pages the religiosity and the sacral amalgamate with the poetic, revealing an interesting creative work.

Discurso constelar e contingência: a pregnância de Mallarmé

The aim of this article is to discuss Mallarmé‘s poem A throw of dice, establishing some theoretical interfaces among Jakobson‘s reading, Lacan‘s psychoanalysis and some elements from the French discourse analysis. The poem, considered a milestone of modern poetry, has already engendered various discourses about itself, what allows us to consider it here a permanent invention, or yet, a throw of dice in eternal whirl. Attentive to the roaring of such discourses, and available for listening the theory that contributes to the poem‘s critical analysis, the reading herein engaged bets on the profit that the Mallarmé‘s poem study carries, for the perception of contemporary poetry, which inherited from him the double-sided lyrical coin: high revision of the possibilities of invention and very strong metalanguage.

A recusa do fácil como experiência estética na poesia de Frederico Barbosa

This essay aims to drive the paths of Frederico Barbosa’s poetry to experience the refusal of the effortless. The dimensions of the emptiness, of the about and the nothing, are here under investigation as a style of expression that builds the structure of the poem. The utopian response to these themes could be in the deviation of the effortless by a refusal gesture of the language that mimetically works the paths of a style that refuses the easy way of making poetry itself.

O mar e as viagens: épico e romance antigo em Galáxias, de Haroldo de Campos

The aim of this paper is to discuss the presence of epic and ancient romance as construction’s mechanism of the poem Galáxias by Haroldo de Campos, whose work was, all of the time, dedicated to both: innovation in poetry forms and rescue of tradition. It is quite important to investigate how epic and ancient narrative elements contribute to the meaning construction of poem Galaxias, written by Campos during thirteen years. This investigation appears to be very challenging because seems to be an opportunity to think about post-modern and post-antique, at the same time, making both instances dialogue. Galáxias seems to be exemplary to show this dialogue between present and past: it is a sea voyage book and a book as sea voyage, not only because the epic and ancient narrative have strong presence in the poem, but also because the poem central theme is the sea voyages – and the book.

Cecília Meireles e a Índia: das provisórias arquiteturas ao êxtase longo de ilusão nenhuma

A palavra poética de Arnaldo Antunes

This article reflects on Arnaldo Antunes‟ (AA) poetics. For this purpose, both the contributions of Fontanille and Zilberberg regarding tensivity, as well as some ideas of Tatit regarding song semiotics. The aim is to think about how the dance between enunciation and enunciate is structured in AA within poetical architecture as exemplified here based on the analysis of the poem “Palavra”. The hypothesis is that the tension between the two central nuclei of the poem, metalanguage and erotism, are the essential compositional marc of AA poetical stylistics. The results lead to the reflection that the musical tension is the game that guarantees the movement between the density of the word and the erotic fluidity of the authorial (metalinguistic) act of production.

Gonçalves Dias, o índio e a liberdade

This article presents a reading of the poem “O canto do guerreiro” written by Antonio Gonçalves Dias. The aim is to show the existence of a dialogue between the literary‘representation of the Brazilian‘indigenous and the concept of natural man, by Jean Jacques Rousseau. Going beyond a reading upon a romantic nationalism view, such dialogue makes explicit the poet’ conscience of his hole in Brazilian Romanticism and, at same time, gives a universal dimension to his poetic work.

Silêncio e diálogo na poesia brasileira

This essay aims to contribute to a critical assessment of contemporary Brazilian poetry, investigating the relationship between two tendencies: minimalism that verges on silence of speech in Kléber Mantovani’s and Tarso de Melo’s poetry, and the dialogue with the tradition in Armando Freitas Filho’s, Fabiano Calixto’s and Iacyr Anderson Freitas’s poetry.

Cecília Meireles, leitora de poesia portuguesa

In the early XX century scene, the poem writer Cecilia Meireles was the voice of the Portuguese Literature in Brazil. Probably as the writer´s fi rst husband, the Portuguese artist Fernando Dias, was in contact with the intellectuals from the Portuguese cultural universe, Cecilia certainly had access to Portuguese publishing before they were popular in Brazil. So, by printing, in 1944 the anthology Poetas novos de Portugal, by Dois Mundos Publishing house (directed by Jaime Cortesão), Cecília could spread the Portuguese poetry which had never been published in books in our country. As it has never been printed again, the anthology shows a detailed view about the Portuguese literature scene at that time. My work aims at looking thoroughly this volume, in order to understand the criteria used by Cecilia when selecting the authors and poems, in the light of such piece indicates certain understanding of the Portuguese Literature relations with Brazil.

A Poética do amor em O Romance da Rosa

We aim with this article to analyze the poetics of love in The Romance of the Rose. We think that Guillaume de Lorris’s conception of love is associated with the flourishing of the French courtly society of the XIII Century, and that Jean de Meun’s conception of love is a result of the decline of this same society. Behind the virtues offered by Guillaume to the medieval lover we find the notion of courtesy, of the art of living in society, the understanding of the poetry as a form of ethics, and the medieval poetic of desire – intimately associated with the religious mysticism appeared from the XI Century and with the troubadours’ poetry. Jean is more influenced by the Ovidian tradition of thinking about the causes and effects of love. In the first part of the poem, Guillaume idealizes the conquest of the Rose; in the second, Jean describes the cueillette of the Rose, which could be read as a rape, in an allegorical way. It is this tension between different conceptions of love in a same poem that makes possible a better comprehension of the ways people used to think and feel in the Middle Ages.
