Análise de marcadores culturais no par de obras Relato de um certo oriente e The tree of the seventh heaven

This paper presents some results of a study on culturally marked terms in a corpus composed by the Brazilian novel Relato de um certo oriente (1989), by Milton Hatoum, and its translation into English The tree of the seventh heaven, by Ellen Watson. For the analysis of culturally marked terms, we followed the interdisciplinary approach proposed by Camargo (2005, 2007) involving corpus-based translation studies (BAKER, 1993, 1995, 1996, 2000), and the investigations of cultural domains (NIDA, 1945; AUBERT, 1981, 2006). The methodology adopted in the present research required the software WordSmith Tools (SCOTT, 2007), which provides the necessary resources for the collection of data in a corpus of translated texts. The software tool called WordList was used for the selection of the most frequent words in the texts and also for the identification of the culturally marked terms. For the analysis of the culturally marked terms in both texts we used the software tool Concord. The results revealed that most of the culturally marked terms are inserted in the ecological domain, and the other terms are distributed in the domains of material, social and ideological culture, which reflects the theme of the book.

Os labirintos da memória em Orfãos do Eldorado de Milton Hatoum

This article aims to analyze aspects of Orfãos do Eldorado (2008), by Milton Hatoum, to elucidate the plot construction by the use of memory, which articulates three narrative perspectives: the mythic, the social-historic and the mythic-social-personal. This process presents as a result a textual configuration marked by a contemporary diction, by the creative work and by a certain lyricism that allows us to say, as Tania Pellegrini and Alfredo Bosi, that there is a ‘revisitated’ regionalism in this author work.

O passado no presente: João Gilberto Noll, leitor de Álvares de Azevedo

In the mid-nineteenth century, in his fruitful years of the perhaps best-known shortest literary career, Álvares de Azevedo wrote this verse “As ondas são anjos que dormem no mar” (“The waves are angels who sleep in the sea”). In the presentation of João Gilberto Noll’s young adult novel Anjo das ondas (Angel of the waves) in 2010, Ivan Marques states that the character in the novel, Gustavo, “with his adolescent passion, and torn spirit with overflowing lyrics, could even be compared to our tropical Byron”. João Gilberto Noll establishes a connection between him and Álvares de Azevedo that invites the reader to go beyond a first reading level of his work, seeking evidence of dialogue ratification between two apparently distant writers. The subtle intertextuality exceeds the initial clue and can be detected on Noll’s theme development from the history of Gustavo, a troubled teenager in search of his identity. Noll’s affinity to Álvares de Azevedo can still be captured in his narrative texture, in voices coming from his text; however, they also reveal to be unique and original features of his literary production. An apparent exercise in style shows that each author fulfills his mission by expressing, in his own way, the feeling of his time. In addition, it shows that through aesthetic emotion, literature allows us to transcend time and space.

São Bernardo: construção do romance pela memória

This paper concentrates on demonstrating that the novel called São Bernardo ,written by Graciliano Ramos, utilizes some literary strategies that cause the effect of being built by rememorizations, which is a vital aspect of several of the author’s titles. Such objective is reached via the analyses of how the following narrative categories: focalization, narrator, characters, story and time converge toward the elaboration of the memory and the comparison between this construction on São Bernardo and Angústia. In order to be successful on this task, three groups of study constitute our theoretical basis: a) critical essays concerning Graciliano Ramos; b) theoretical propositions about the narrative categories; c) academic articles on the constitution of memory. Papers composed by Antonio Candido, Alfredo Bosi, Sonia Brayner, Luís Costa Lima and others are part of the first group. The second one is constituted by propositions of Gérard Genette, Benedito Nunes etc. Finally, on the last one, we find Paul Ricouer and Henri Bergson

Violências por professores/as contra seus/as alunos/as

Este estudo investiga atos agressivos manifestados pelos/as professores/as contra seus/as alunos/as em sala de aula. Para tanto, recorremos às contribuições da literatura brasileira acerca da violência escolar, produzida na última década e publicada na Base Scielo e utilizamos como fonte 32 histórias de escolarização narradas por alunas que, em 2004, cursaram a disciplina Didática II do curso de Pedagogia oferecido pela Faculdade de Ciências e Letras – campus de Araraquara – Unesp. Os resultados da literatura indicaram que professores/as também são protagonistas de violências contra seus/as alunos/as e que, em geral, estes/as profissionais estão despreparados para combater o fenômeno. As análises das histórias mostraram que os/as professores/as dos diferentes níveis de ensino praticam atos agressivos contra seus/as alunos/as, físicos e verbais, predominando os verbais. Faz-se urgente conhecer essa problemática para que possamos pensar em alternativas futuras, tendo em vista o cumprimento do ECA que visa, sobretudo, assegurar os direitos fundamentais.

Antonio Candido, leitor de poesia

Este artigo objetiva, a partir de estudos de Antonio Candido voltados para a poesia lírica, rastrear o pensamento estético e crítico-teórico do autor sobre a matéria, bem como avaliar sua prática analítica do texto poético. Tal prática, coerente com o postulado na vasta obra do autor, ancora-se em dois eixos principais: o “árcade/ romântico” (voltado para o período formativo da literatura brasileira) e o “modernista” (que enfatiza a consolidação plena de nossa literatura).
