Ser-tão de Buriti: o corpo de noturno rumor (a poética de Guimarães Rosa e o pensamento literário contemporâneo)

This thesis is to analyze the fictional texture of Buriti, novella by Guimarães Rosa, which makes part of Corpo do Baile. Gilles Deleuze‘s philosophical background as well as similar theorists such as Mircea Eliade, Derrida, Bataille, Foucault, Blanchot and Nie-tzsche constitute the main reference, as example of Guimarães Rosa‘s problematizing writing, since they present as basic element of thought the desterritorialization of con-cepts, standards and institutionalized knowledge by the dominant literary language. Along with the theoretical perspective of current alterity on these authors, Buriti is crossed by one aesthetics substantiated with a multiplicity of narrative points of view, opening gaps to other non-sacralized, nomadic voices, using polyphony as a way of breaking and destabilizing crystallized truths related to the canons of mother tongue. Interwoven by a poetic side of transgression, the narrative of Buriti finds especially marked by the signs of the backlands and of the night, which rhizomatically point to a sense of infinity, eternity, loneliness, vertigo before the abyssal, evoking the singularity of a ser-tão before the night, "the body of nocturnal rumor." The nights in the backlands in Buriti give rise to the emergence of a state of subjectivity, the ser-tão, whose nature is shown as a space of communion of the various beings that humans put on the same level of other living beings, setting up a sharing cosmic territory, enjoyment between pain and pleasure, between death and life. It is the night in the darkness, the shadows, the ser-tão is exposed, the being in his depth, facing himself with his internal rumors, which project themselves through the noise, the sound amplified by the vastness of the night at the desert backlands. "The backlands is the night." (ROSA, 1988, p.92).

National Cinemas and Non-Hegemonic Languages. The Invisibility of Galician Language Facing the Policies for Cultural Diversity

In the spirit of the proposals of the Agenda 2020 about the structural role of cinema in the configuration of the European identities, this article highlights the significance of the national cinemas in non-hegemonic languages in the conformation of a diverse European culture. Following this perspective, we use Galician cinema as a case study in which we analyze the presence (or more precisely the absence) of the Galician language in the original version in the feature films released between 2008 and 2012.This proposal is hosted by the I+D+I project eDCINEMA: “Towards the European Digital Space. The role of small cinemas in original version” (Ref. CSO2012-35784) financed by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness of Spain.

Childhood’s crossings: rites of initiation in "Campo Geral" by Guimarães Rosa and "Terra sonâmbula" by Mia Couto

The present work analyses, under an anthropologic perspective, each one of the phases of the rites of passage lived by the protagonists of Guimarães Rosa’s Campo geral and Mia Couto’s Terra sonâmbula, trying to track in these texts the elements related to the traditional societies’ culture and trying to identify the meaning of the mentioned elements in the specific context of the authors. The two writers mix these primitive components with the regional culture and therefore achieve, starting also from the local representations, to reach a universal extent.

Locuciones nominales francesas con el término coup y su traducción al español

La existencia de unidades fraseológicas (UF) supone un enriquecimiento en el seno de cada lengua. De cara a la traducción, sin embargo, las UF suelen plantear dificultades tanto en la fase de comprensión como en la de reescritura, a la hora de buscar equivalentes adecuados. En el caso de la combinación lingüística francés-español, la cercanía entre ambas lenguas facilita, en ocasiones, la comprensión, pero, a su vez, propicia fenómenos como los falsos amigos en el proceso traslativo. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar parte de un amplio estudio realizado a partir de la clasificación y el análisis de expresiones francesas que contienen el término coup y su traducción al español. Para ello, justificaremos la elección del tema y expondremos la metodología llevada a cabo; definiremos qué es una unidad fraseológica y qué tipos existen; ilustraremos con ejemplos parte de nuestro estudio, la relativa a las locuciones nominales; y esbozaremos las conclusiones más sobresalientes.

Solvation Structure of Uracil in Ionic Liquids

The local solvation environment of uracil dissolved in the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate has been studied using neutron diffraction techniques. At solvent:solute ratios of 3:1 and 2:1 ionic liquid:uracil, little perturbation of the ion-ion correlations compared to those of the neat ionic liquid are observed. We find that solvation of the uracil is driven predominantly by the acetate anion of the solvent. While short distance correlations exist between uracil and the imidazolium cation, the geometry of these contacts suggest that they cannot be considered as hydrogen bonds, in contrast to other studies by Araújo et al. (J. M. Araújo, A. B. Pereiro, J. N. Canongia-Lopes, L. P. Rebelo, I. M. Marrucho, J. Phys. Chem. B 2013, 117, 4109-4120). Nevertheless, this combination of interactions of the solute with both the cation and anion components of the solvents helps explain the high solubility of the nucleobase in this media. In addition, favorable uracil-uracil contacts are observed, of similar magnitude to those between cation and uracil, and are also likely to aid dissolution

Nego veio é um sofrer : uma etnografia da subalternidade e do subalterno numa irmandade do Rosário

The object of this work is a fellowship of São Sebastião e Nossa Senhora do Rosário in the city of Jardim do Seridó (RN), that is, a black catholic fellowship on the sertão potiguar. The devotion to Nossa Senhora do Rosário, in colonial Brazil, organizes itself through black catholic men as fellowships. They blossomed in Brazil until the abolition, getting support from the Catholic church, from owners of slaves and from the population in general − unlike others afro-Brazilian religious expression. Today, these fellowships remain active, against the sentimental pessimism of the folklore studies, and they also have a highlight position in the calendar of many cities in Brazil, and in particular in Seridó. The research s foothold is the apparent valorization of the fellowship by the local elite, attitude that hides asymmetric relationships between the group of negros do Rosário and the local authorities, having as its consequence that the members occupy a subaltern position inside their own fellowship. This subalternity take place, mainly, in the public area, where the negros do Rosário cannot represent themselves neither political nor discursively. To discuss this idea, it s done a brief historical of these catholic institutions as well as a description of the relationship between the negros do Rosário and the elites of the city. Then, the phenomenon is analyzed as folklore and/or religion , under the perspective of many agents that participate in this process. In other moment, it is going to be presented how the group formulates their own representation of the history, of the devotional forms and of their own political-religious experiences. In this sense, an ethnography of the subalternity is understood as an analysis of the process that leads the negros do Rosário to become a subaltern group. It s also outlined the perception that the group has of its own position, through an ethnography essay of the subaltern subject. The research, focused in the group of Rosário, was done between August 2010 and January 2012 and includes other agents (like treasurers, priests and intellectuals). Besides that, as a methodological complement, there are documental research, photography, as well as shoots of the party days and public presentation

Povoações, freguesias e vilas na Paraíba Colonial: Pombal e Sousa, 1697-1800

The towns presently named Pombal and Sousa, located in the hinterland of the State of Paraíba, Brazil, still keep vestiges of the colonization process they went through along the 18th and 19th centuries, when they both emerged as settlement nuclei in the extreme West of the then captaincy of Paraíba and attained the status of freguesia and vila in a later period. This research aims to comprehend the process of urban formation and development of the colonial urban nuclei of Pombal and Sousa as they became povoados (hamlets), freguesias (parishes) and vilas (small urban communities with a local government), according to territorial expansion policies implemented by the Portuguese government from 1697 to 1800. The choice of the two urban settlements for this survey lies in the fact that they were part of the great conquest and colonization program undertaken by the Portuguese Crown. Another aspect that was considered was the fact that those towns are the oldest urban nuclei of Paraíba s hinterland. They came into being as early as in the times of the colony, thus producing a favorable environment to the study of the changes that occurred in the captaincy s hinterland scenery resulting from the process of formation and development of the colonial urban space. Three fundamental categories of analysis were defined since they have a direct bearing upon the urban configuration of the two colonization nuclei: povoado, freguesia and vila. The three of them are related to civil and ecclesiastic jurisdictions. Field, documentation and bibliography surveys were undertaken in order to develop the study. They allowed for the finding of vestiges of the old, colonial urban structures and for the development of theoretical analysis based on present-day studies of issues relating to the colonial urban history. The study purposes were, therefore, to try to understand how the old urban nuclei of Pombal and Sousa fit in the territorial expansion policies undertaken by the Portuguese government; to relate the process of urban formation and development of such nuclei with the categories of analysis povoação-freguesia-vila by discussing the relations and influences they exert over one another and their territory, as well as to unveil, as much as possible, the configuration the urban spaces that were shaped along the 18th century

Contra as Secas: a engenharia e as origens de um planejamento regional no nordeste brasileiro

Droughts surfaced in 1877 as a crucial problem for the birthing Brazilian nation. Engineers, who formed the country's technical and scientific elite, took it upon themselves to study, understand and fight the problem through planned actions of intervention on space. This work, based on proposals and discussions contained in engineering magazines and reports, aims to provide elements for the comprehension of how these systematized actions against droughts, in the Iate nineteenth and early twentieth century, contributed to spatial analysis and the formation of a (then-inexistent) regional and territorial planning discipline in Brazi!. Engineers, by taking up the position of masterminds in the country's modernization, guaranteed for themselves personal economic stability, social prestige and political power. By understanding nature, either as a resource to be exploited or an adversary to national progress, they contributed to the delimitation of the region now known as the Northeast. By seeking to understand the drought phenomenon, they created knowledge about the space they sought to intervene on; by constructing their projects amid political and economical difficulty, they changed the organizational structures of cities and country in the northeast. The proposals for açudes (Iarge water reservoirs) allowed the fixation of population and the resistance against droughts; the roads - railroads and automotive roadways - connected the sertão to the capitais and the coast, speeding up help to the affected populations during droughts and allowing the circulation of goods so as to strengthen the local economies in normal rimes. The adopted practices and techniques, adapted from foreign experience and developed through trial and improvement, were consolidated as an eminently spatial intervention course, even if a theoretical body of regional or territorial planning wasn't formed in Brazil. Regional Planning proper was first applied in the country in the Northeast itself, in the 1950s, based off an economical view of reality in order to achieve development. The engineer's work prior tothat date, however, cannot be dlsconsldered. It was proved that, despite facing financial and political hurdles, engineers had a profound commitment to the problem and intended to act systematically to transform the economical and social relations in the region, in order to be victorious in their struggle against droughts

A travessia do trágico no romance d A Pedra do Reino de Ariano Suassuna

The present work seeks to investigate and discuss about the Greek Tragedy s elements at Ariano Suassuna s romance called τ Romance d A Pedra do Reino e o Principe do Sangue do Vai e Volta, connecting it directly to mythic, epic, poetic, and romances aspects at his work. The romance has as the protagonist the backcountry Pedro Dinis Quaderna. Quaderna is a character which is simultaneously popular, elitist, enigmatic, naive, and an intellectual man that has a great erudition. Quaderna is a character that seeks, by using the Literature, to reestablish a Brazilian backcountry kingdom which he s supposedly the king, always trying to empathizes the Brazilian northeast region like if it was a nation apart. By impressing a national personality to the Brazilian northeast , Quaderna tries to become an epic poet just like Homer, denoting a strong influence of the Epopee. Quaderna, just like many characters of Greek Tragedy, has at his family past time a lot of tragic circumstances. These facts that ocurred to his relativos like the your uncle Pedro Sebastião Garcia Barreto s death, the disappearement of his cousin Sinésio, and the contest between the brothers Arésio and Sinésio, and others aspects, remind us remarkable influences, beyond the Epopee, of the Greek Tragedy. By reading the romance we may notice many similarities between Quaderna s trajectory and Greek Tragedy heroes. To make an analysis about the tragic aspects at Suassuna s work, we need to dialogue with many theoreticals that have written about the tragic and comparate with many parts of Suassuna s with classics character s texts of Greek Tragedy. At the following chapters we seek to provide romance s elementaries notions, as well as tragic notions, the dialogue with mythics aspects and the tragic and epic aplicability at Suassuna s work

INSPIRAÇÃO NORDESTINA: UMA LEITURA TEOLÓGICA NA POÉTICA DE PATATIVA DO ASSARÉ NA POENTE DO DIÁLOGO ENTRE TEOLOGIA E LITERATURA

Este trabalho se propõe estudar a obra do poeta cearense Antonio Gonçalves da Silva, conhecido como Patativa do Assaré. O estudo de tal obra encontra-se alicerçado na crítica literária, sobretudo no conceito de textos histórica e socialmente ancorados elaborado por Antonio Cândido, e na discussão do diálogo entre teologia e literatura, a partir da idéia de reescritura de um texto literário a partir de textos sagrados, de Eli Brandão. Dessa forma objetiva-se localizar, no contexto brasileiro, a partir do diálogo entre teologia e literatura, a plausibilidade de nossa pesquisa, ou seja: ao longo da produção literária de Patativa do Assaré, encontramos questões existenciais provocadoras de diversas aflições percebidas no cotidiano do povo sertanejo, as quais nos remetem a questionamentos e temas de cunho teológico, notados através da obra de um poeta, reveladora não somente da dura realidade do nordestino, mas também da fé e esperança deste em um Deus, visto ao longo da poética de Patativa do Assaré não como fonte de castigo, mas percebido como um Deus sensível aos sofrimentos, mazelas e marginalização dos nordestinos desamparados. Assim, acreditamos na proposta de estudar a poética patativana sob a perspectiva de “um olhar teológico”, a partir do qual se percebe “temas teológicos nordestinos”, elaborados a partir do contato do poeta com o catolicismo do sertão, mas que, na percepção e compreensão de mundo de Patativa assumem novos significados e novas interpretações.

Brucella Non-Neutrocytic Bacterascites in a Patient with Chronic Liver Disease

Objectives: To report a case of Brucella peritonitis. Patient and methods: We describe the case of a patient and present a brief review of the few published reports. Results: The patient had alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver and was diagnosed with Brucella non-neutrocytic bacterascites. Conclusion: Brucellosis is a common zoonosis with worldwide distribution. It is a systemic disease with the potential to predominantly affect one organ or a specific system (focal brucellosis). However, peritoneal focalization of this disease is a very rare presentation.

Revitalização dos saberes e práticas Kaingang sobre as plantas tradicionais como proposta de educação ambiental na terra indígena Ligeiro

O presente trabalho objetiva investigar a Revitalização dos Saberes e Práticas Kaingang Sobre as Plantas Tradicionais como Proposta de Educação Ambiental na comunidade Terra Indígena de Ligeiro no município de Charrua - RS. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de campo que busca melhor compreender o que provocou o abandono e esquecimento desses saberes, bem como possíveis alternativas teóricas e práticas para que a revitalização dos saberes culturais ancestrais seja realizada. Justifica-se pelo fato da utilização de plantas medicinais para o tratamento de enfermidades estar enraizada nas culturas indígenas e poder assim suprir, em parte, a deficiente atenção à saúde e as realidades da fome em muitas T.I. Foram realizadas visitas a campo para análise da situação atual e coleta de informações, com aplicação de entrevistas com vários indígenas, bem como com kujà e curandeiras; se implantou um horto medicinal com várias plantas, ervas e se distribuíram mudas de plantas frutíferas nativas. Para este projeto, dois alunos indígenas do IFRS - Campus Sertão atuaram na implantação deste Horto, assim como outros alunos indígenas da Escola Estadual Indígena de Ensino Médio Fág Mág (Pinheiro Grande) trabalharam e apoiaram na execução dessa ação. Através da realização de fotos e vídeos, foram analisadas também as expressões atuais da cultura Kaingang na conjuntura, os elementos significativos que estão guardados ao longo das gerações e apontamos os desafios de permanecer na comunidade e revitalizar com sustentabilidade os saberes e práticas Kaingang, sempre com um olhar incondicional pela natureza. Foram sistematizadas as denominações específicas da cada planta, em correspondência com seu nome científico e com o seu nome tradicional da cosmologia dual Kaingang (kam e kanhru). Conclui-se a partir dessa investigação que houve efetivamente o abandono e a falta de valorização de saberes e práticas relacionadas com a educação ambiental, pelas pressões da sociedade branca, o desejo de alguns indígenas de ser moderno e aceito na sociedade branca e pela ausência de trabalho de um educador ambiental. As iniciativas de revitalização são possíveis; o uso de plantas e alimentos tradicionais estão relacionadas com atividades que precisam ser vivenciadas primordialmente na escola, na relação com os kujà tradicionais e no desenvolvimento de projetos específicos e na motivação permanente para a responsabilidade ambiental, preservando a cultura e os costumes Kaingang que ainda são preciosos, especialmente na promoção da saúde da comunidade
