A audácia de ser diferente: a escrita obsessiva de Ana Teresa Pereira

A presente tese tem como objetivo estudar a obra da escritora madeirense Ana Teresa Pereira. Partindo da leitura integral dos seus livros, que se interligam formando um todo caraterizado por uma unidade intrínseca e obsessiva, e analisando especificamente a obra publicada entre 1989 e 2008, procurámos demonstrar os tópicos que permitem classificar a sua poética como uma escrita obsessiva e audaz, sob o ponto de vista do que de mais espantoso as expressões podem ter. Estamos perante uma obra cuja indivisibilidade labiríntica se entretece com a paixão obsessiva pela Arte, em particular, pela Literatura, pelo Cinema, pela Pintura e pela Música.

Foodies in the UK: A Sense of Self, Connection and Belonging Beyond the Passion?

The global rise of the Foodie movement has attracted some research attention as well as critique in the food industry trend followers, but little research attention in marketing research. The present study looks at the ‘Foodie’ phenomenon in the UK and aims to extend how the notion has been coined in literature through a qualitative investigation of a sample of self-professed Foodies. The objective is to provide an in-depth understanding of what it means to be a Foodie at the individual and group levels, probing attitudes, motivations and self-awareness. Results indicate that the term Foodie cannot be used as an implicit definition of someone ‘simply interested in food’; the capacity of the Foodie may be dependent on individual involvement and the level of importance along the five emerging themes; these being: Learning and discovery; Pleasure and enjoyment; Inspirational influences; Quality; and Experiencing food as an individual and in connection with others. Findings imply that there might be different levels of Foodies, leading to a start on developing a Foodie Typology. The study poses implications for food marketers and researchers that can assist in more effective segmentation, efficient targeting and tailored positioning, as well as opportunities for future research.
