Eça de Queirós e seu texto de imprensa 'Tema para versos I e II' (02 e 03/04/1893-Gazeta de Notícias): considerações

Eça de Queirós published in Gazeta de Notícias, the text “Theme for verses I and II” in April 2nd and 3rd in 1893 . From part II, it was taken an excerpt and published as a short story under the title “The maid” when this text was a part of the book Short Stories (12 stories, some of them handwritten, from 1874 to 1897) gathered by his friend, Luís de Magalhães, and published in 1903, under the year of 1902. Since then, the text ”The maid” is present in many editons of Eça de Queirós’ short stories without any mention to its primary source, the newspaper Gazeta de Notícias (Rio de Janeiro), or even the other part of the text in which it was originally in. The objective of these short considerations is reflecting if the short story, known as “The maid”, should be read as an excerpt of the original text as it has been done since 1902, or it should be put in its original context, joining the two parts of the text “Theme for verses I and II”.

Letteratura parascolastica e nazionalismo nella Prima Repubblica

In the early decades of Brazilian Republic, didactic literature played an important role in contributing to the «spirit of national integration», as José Veríssimo recommended. But, in addition to fighting the «parochialism» of different regions of the vast country, didactic literary works intended to combat the «foreign threat» represented by uncontrolled immigration and the economic and military imperialism. Brief analysis of Contos Pátrios (1894) and A Pátria Brasileira (1909), written by Olavo Bilac and Coelho Neto, and Porque Me Ufano do Meu País (1901), by earl of Afonso Celso, aims to reveal some of the resources used by the authors to elicit the feeling of brotherhood, solidarity and collective bond among Brazilian children, driving away threats that hung over the country. It also indicates that the interpretation of the national past, from which came the heroes, martyrs and leaders to be worshiped and imitated by children, radically opposed the monarchist Afonso Celso and the republicans Bilac and Coelho Neto.

The paper aims to examine the work of Marcelino Freire, Angu de sangue (2000), from a poetic of identity with the black narratives and experiences of characters who participate in a space of exclusion, violence and social exile. Overall, the book deals with death and violence so raw and without idealizations. The characters struggle to survive in a cruel formo f life and denote the suffering and despair of those marked by peripheral situation. By proposing an analysis of tales of Angu de sangue, the work presented here reflects on a poetics of exclusion that runs the seventeen tales that make up the work in dialogue with images and internal references (through the images that illustrate the stories), and on the other hand, with pictures and references to the urban context of the excluded, represented on the pages of newspapers, magazines and television news.

Oficina na atenção psicossocial: experimentações com a palavra

The Word Workshop was created in 2004, as an activity of the training period in Psychosocial Care in the Collective Health, a discipline that is part of the curriculum of the Psychology course offered by the State of São Paulo’s University “Júlio de Mesquita Filho”/UNESP, campus of Assis. Initially, it is possible to affirm that the Word Workshop contributes to stimulate the flow of the words through the discussion of tales, short stories, poetry, jokes and news. The Word Workshop is considered an effort towards the guarantee of a space where the users of the mental health care service can share varied experiences and it is also thought as an attempt that can, potentially, bring up the conditions through which some existential meanings may possibly be forked. Such a space-instrument allows the mental health care users to speak about life and their interests rather than to keep focused in symptoms and complains. These ones, by their turn, are expressed through metaphors, unprecedented speech experiences and new sensitivity regimes. The critical analysis of the singular experience of the Word Workshop, that understands the words as agents of social transformation, was conceived with the support of Enrique Pichon-Rivière’s and Paulo Freire’s theories. From this first theoretical reading, it is possible to make an incursion through the scenery of the Psychosocial Care Workshops, paying special attention to their potential and to the risks related to crystallized practices.
