O Vampiro Camaleônico: uma análise de Drácula em suas múltiplas encarnações na Literatura e Cinema

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar a imagem de Drácula ao longo de seus mais 100 anos de existência em nossa cultura, sobretudo em suas representações nos meios literários e audiovisuais. Buscamos traçar as transformações do personagem e de sua história ao longo de um grande percurso de incursões cinematográficas. Para isso iniciaremos um debate sobre a imagem do vampiro, sua origem e suas diversas evoluções desenvolvendo o que chamamos aqui de Mitologia Vampírica, aproveitando para apresentar o estudo das materialidades como um complemento metodológico às clássicas análises já existentes. Em seguida, traremos o vampiro para a literatura, destacando o livro de Stoker como o mais importante vampiro da história. Drácula, embora seja um produto literário, alcança seu ápice no meio audiovisual como um dos personagens mais representados e uma das histórias mais adaptadas como veremos através de uma pequena arqueologia de suas aparições no cinema. Para finalizar nosso estudo, nos aprofundaremos na análise de 5 filmes, que julgamos ser os mais pertinentes dentro de todas as transposições fílmicas até então feitas sobre o livro de Bram Stoker

O vampiro é o leitor: o processo de vampirização do leitor na literatura fantástica

Parte-se da perspectiva do fantástico como um entrelugar espaço plural e fragmentado, marcado por descentramento e heterogeneidade, capaz de comportar até o contraditório percebido como um ambiente caracterizado por uma inerente duplicidade. Entendido isso, observa-se que esse caráter dual intensifica-se nas narrativas vampirescas, na medida em que ele é estendido ao vampiro e refletido no leitor. Por conseguinte, identificam-se e analisam-se os aspectos distintivos do leitor desse tipo de narrativa, reconhecendo-se seu papel na construção do gênero e na manutenção do caráter aberto da obra, como em uma coautoria cuja marca registrada é a hesitação. Entretanto, da relação entre vampiro e leitor, evidencia-se mais que isso, afinal a narrativa fantástica de modo geral e não apenas a de vertente vampiresca sempre aponta para o leitor como sendo este o fio solto que não permite que a obra feche-se. Percebe-se ainda, por meio da descrição e análise de diferentes tipos de manifestação do vampiro na literatura, um processo de reconfiguração da relação existente entre vampiro e leitor, e entre este e a narrativa fantástica, bem como com a literatura de forma geral. Assim, considera-se a relação do leitor com o vampiro clássico um tipo assustador , marcada pela desidentificação; com o moderno um tipo sedutor, e humanizado na figura de Louis, personagem de Anne Rice , marcada pela identificação; e com o contemporâneo um tipo sedutor e humano , marcada pela apropriação de identidade. Neste último movimento, entendido como a vampirização do leitor, intenta-se provar que este, depois de transformado, reconhecendo-se como tal em seu duplo (o vampiro), nutre-se da força vital deste seu duplo e da narrativa fantástica e retém a aparência de hesitação, a qual é a força motriz do gênero em questão. O leitor torna-se o personagem mais atuante sobre a/na narrativa, operando no campo da realidade e também no da ficção. A compreensão desse processo que vai da desidentificação à apropriação de identidade é aprofundada na análise destas três narrativas vampirescas marcantes ao pensamento desenvolvido neste estudo: Drácula, de Bram Stoker; Entrevista com o vampiro, de Anne Rice; e A confissão, de Flávio Carneiro

Daughters of Lilith : transgressive femininity in Bram Stoker’s late gothic fiction

Daughters of Lilith: Transgressive Femininity in Bram Stoker’s Late Gothic Fiction explore le thème de la transgression féminine dans quatre romans gothiques de Bram Stoker. En combinant les études féministes et les études de genre, cette thèse examine les différents visages de la dissidence féminine à travers Dracula (1897), The Jewel of Seven Stars (1903), The Lady of the Shroud (1909) et The Lair of the White Worm (1911). Dans ces textes, la transgression est incarnée par la femme hystérique, la mère monstrueuse, la femme exotique et la New Woman. De plus, le traitement de ces stéréotypes féminins révèle une certaine tolérance envers la dissension féminine chez l’auteur. Souvent perçu comme un écrivain conservateur, Stoker est plutôt qualifié de progressiste dans cette thèse. L’inclusion de personnages féminins forts et déterminés à travers ses romans ainsi que ses rapports avec plusieurs féministes et proto-féministes dans sa vie privée témoignent de sa libéralité envers les femmes. Sa largeur d’esprit semble d’ailleurs évoluer tout au long de sa carrière ainsi qu’avec la progression du mouvement suffragiste britannique, une période mouvante à la fin du dix-neuvième et au début du vingtième siècle.

Uskonnonopetuksen tunnustuksellisuus koulun kiistakysymyksenä : Evankelinen herätysliike oppivelvollisuuskoulun kristillisyyden asialla 1912-1926

In the early years of independence the Finnish school system went through a major change. Both the Compulsory school attendance act (1921) and the Religious freedom act (1923) were legislated almost simultaneously. Although the legislators were deciding on the whole content of the citizenship education given in the compulsory school, their attention was mainly concentrated on the issue of the religious education. The former study concerning the subject shows that this issue was strongly influenced by the political power struggle between the conservative and the socialist parties. One of the underlying factors was also the Church s decreased authority concerning the elementary school. The aim of this research was to study the Finnish evangelical movement s attitude and opinions on the issue of religious education and on its status and nature. Their opinions on the issue were especially investigated from the point of view of their own evangelical lower elementary school teachers seminar, which was deeply connected with the matter of confessionalism. The source material of this research of educational history consist of documents of the school administration and the Lutheran Evangelical Association as well as of vast collection of educational, Church s and evangelical movement s journals. According to the results of this study, the evangelical movement plead very strongly for denominational religious education. However, the confessionalism they were pursuing differed from the common understanding of the concept at that time. This became evident both because of their demands for increased education on the Christian doctrine and because of their sharp criticism against loosely confessional, generally Christian religious education. The evangelical movement s strict opinion was combined with their effort to emphasize the Lutherian doctrine in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Finland. The founding of the Evangelical seminar for lower elementary school teachers in Karkku was a significant indication of the evangelical movement s dedication to strive towards school s Christianity. The objective of the evangelical seminar was to change the school by means of training evangelical minded teachers. The seminar was only a part of much larger plans of evangelical education and home missionary work. However, maintaining the seminar proved to be impossible, especially as the National Board of Education was absolutely against it, claiming that it would endanger the unity of the compulsory school. The National Board of Education indicated that the objectivity of citizenship education would be forfeit, if every marginal ideological movement could educate their own teachers.
