Silêncio e diálogo na poesia brasileira

This essay aims to contribute to a critical assessment of contemporary Brazilian poetry, investigating the relationship between two tendencies: minimalism that verges on silence of speech in Kléber Mantovani’s and Tarso de Melo’s poetry, and the dialogue with the tradition in Armando Freitas Filho’s, Fabiano Calixto’s and Iacyr Anderson Freitas’s poetry.

Fundo Nacional do Idoso e as políticas de gestão do envelhecimento da população brasileira

Demographic census from the last decades of the twentieth century began to reveal a tendency concerning the increasing average age of the population. The Brazilian government began introducing ways to manage the effects and consequences of this trend, the most recent being the creation of the "Fundos do Idoso" (Funds for seniors) in the Federal, state and municipal spheres. That law allows transferring federal taxes from common citizens and companies to the funds. This article is specifically written as a critical examination of this governmental initiative towards the problem of an ageing population from the point of view as to how the law has been implemented. With the creation of the funds there will be the enlargement and improvement of services destined for seniors. However, the law mentioned above does not predict an active participation of the seniors in the management of this funds and policies that will come as result.

O Ensaísmo na Historiografia Brasileira

In this paper we analyze the question of character essayistic the historiography of the first half of the twentieth century. We examined this issue due to the emergence of a new trend on the historiographical colonization (School of Rio) who criticizes, among other things, the essay-like character in historiography. Whereas the criticism expressed how a new trend breaks with the existing historiography, we decided to examine this critical gauge. To promote the overcoming of a certain history is necessary to understand it in its historicity, that is, the motivations that led historians to examine the history of a given way. Of course, criticism is a moment of transcendence. But to be a radical departure is necessary to understand the historiography of historical criticism and not simply point their supposed mistakes, shortcomings and failures.

A mentora literária de Guy de Maupassant

Laure Le Poittevin, Guy de Maupassant’s mother (1850-1893), had from his early childhood, a key role in the literary education of her son. This intelligent and sensitive woman, who was always passionate about arts, especially literature, to whom Maupasssant entrusted his projects and literary adventures, was his fi rst and eternal critic. In the letters he writes her, most of the time he takes the opportunity to plan and discuss his future projects; he presents a text in progress, he draws its guiding lines, he foreshadows its structures and points out some procedures based on a series of principles and recommendations of personal and universal values. Therefore, by reading again these letters, the readers nowadays can follow the writer’s daily life, the progression of his ideas and his literary development, the editing process of his book and his moments of sorrow and joy, anger and affection.

A Sancta Sapientia Medieval: enigma e mistério no teatro cristão de Rosvita de Ganderseheim

Within the scope of Literary Studies, theory, criticism, and historiography about the literature produced in the Middle Ages developed considerably from 1940 on, with the works of Ernst Curtius, Mikhail Bakhtin, and Erich Auerbach. In spite of the progress made, some specific aspects remain in the shadow, with incursions which were punctual though meaningful: that is the case of the critic fortunes about women‟s literary production in that period. Rosvita was a canoness and lived in the Benedictine convent of Gandersheim (Germany), in the 10th century A.D. Coming under Terence‟s influence, she wrote theater plays in Latin in which she figuratively presented theological issues in order to spread the Christian doctrine. The martyrdom issue deserved to be put in relief and was the focal point of the play Wisdom, which took place at the time of the Roman emperor Adrian. This paper analyzes that dramatic text discussing, at the end, how the categories of symbol, enigma, allegory, and mystery are organized by the author as expressive resources and structural elements.

Circunferência da cintura ou abdominal? uma revisão crítica dos referenciais metodológicos

Embora haja consenso sobre a validade e facilidade do uso da antropometria na classificação da obesidade abdominal, ainda não existe consenso sobre a nomenclatura da medida e os sítios anatômicos para sua obtenção. Desta forma, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar de forma crítica o uso da circunferência da cintura ou abdominal em adultos para aferição da obesidade abdominal. Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática a partir de busca em bases de dados indexadas MEDLINE (PubMed) e Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SciELO). Foram revisados artigos publicados no período compreendido entre 2003 e 2009. Quanto à nomenclatura, apesar dos National Institutes Health tratarem circunferência da cintura e abdominal como sinônimos, os pesquisadores internacionais, tem preferido o uso do termo circunferência da cintura. Quanto ao sítio anatômico para a medida, falta ainda consenso entre os pesquisadores e orientação da International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Considerando que os atuais pontos de corte para as populações de origem européia foram elaborados a partir dos sítios anatômicos estabelecidos pela OMS 1989, torna-se razoável a adoção desta referência. Sobre os pontos de corte, a proposta da IDF representa resultado de um consenso internacional e avalizado pela Sociedade Brasileira de Cardiologia.

For this analysis were focused mainly two critics: “Experiência ‘Barravento’: confissão sem moldura”, published December 25-26, 1960, and “Luz Atlântica, 1962”, published in December 31, 1961.
