Travessia e impasse: O lugar de Sebastião Uchoa Leite na poesia contemporânea

Sebastião Uchoa Leite's work is circumscribed in a field of tension with tradition, which makes impossible is delimitation to anyone who seeks to draw his poetic profile. The undeniable identification with the modernist masters does not mean the enhancement of such standards; on the contrary, they are contaminated by the crossing of the most diverse references. The ambiguity comes from the fact that the poet neither puts limits in a temporal-spaced territory, nor sets defined directions. His is a hybrid textual project, as in a crossing, which the nomad route places, side by side, the referring speeches from tradition and from the contemporary world.

OS produtos naturais e a química medicinal moderna

Natural products have been utilized by humans since ancient times and the relief and cure of their diseases was the first purpose for using natural products in medicine. The history of the oriental and occidental civilizations is very rich in examples of the utilization of natural products in medicine and health care. Chinese traditional medicine is one of the most important examples of how natural products can be efficient in the treatment of diseases, and it points to the importance of scientific research on natural products, concerning the discovery of new active chemical entities. The complexity, chemical diversity and biological properties of natural products always fascinated people, and during the last 200 years, this led to the discovery of important new drugs. In the last 30 years, the development of new bioassay techniques, biotechnology methods, bio-guided phytochemical studies, automated high throughput screening and high performance analytical methods, have introduced new concepts and possibilities of rational drug design and drug discovery. In this context, natural products have played an important and decisive role in the development of modern medicinal chemistry.

O silêncio das musas: Épico, ciência e poesia em Haroldo de Campos

The epic and science seem to have been the most important concerns of the Brazilian author Haroldo de Campos (1929-2003) in his last twenty years of life. The books Finismundo: a última viagem and A máquina do mundo repensada are two significant works in his aesthetical journey. This paper presents some strategies for reading both books, in which the relationship between those themes is emphasized. As a starting point, it is believed that the analogy between science and the epic does not represent a paradigm of reading on which the poetry of Harold de Campos intends to base itself, but a way of thinking about the political and literary concerns that constitute its own situation. The creation of a poetics of adventure as an alternative to the end of utopia and the affirmation of a principle of indeterminacy as a way to oppose the interpretations immediately available in the present constitute two of the main interests found in this mode of reading.
