Aspectos pedagógicos do desenho animado infantil Bob esponja

Este estudo teve como objetivo refletir sobre a importância de se entender o desenho animado para publico infantil para além do entretenimento, como rica fonte de apreensão de significados. O desenho animado escolhido para análise foi o infantil "Bob esponja", que apresenta elementos típicos da comédia como simplicidade, exagero, inconveniência e irreverência. O trabalho foi construído pela escolha de quatro episódios, selecionados por apresentarem enredos que tratavam dos temas família (Beijos da vovó); mentira (Chocolate com nozes); doença (Espuma) e disputa (Jogos do mestre-cuca) e sua intersecção com a fundamentação teórica oferecida pela análise do discurso; aspectos da linguagem audiovisual e considerações sobre as relações existentes entre o público infantil e a TV. Através da leitura do discurso dos episódios selecionados foi possível a verificação da presença de traços de um discurso pedagógico fundido no macro discurso do entretenimento.(AU)

O figurino na narrativa dos filmes de Guel Arraes: O Auto da Compadecida (2000) e O Bem Amado (2010)

This research focuses on the course of Guel Arraes, moviemaker, and picks two movies for analysis: O Auto da Compadecida (2000) and O Bem Amado (2010), as well as their costumes. The focus on the costume is based on Semiology and aims to decode the meanings that stem out of the clothes. Three of the movies characters will have their costumes analyzed based on Roland Barthes’ theory, mainly considering semiology elements (language and speech), (significant and meaning) and (system and syntagma). The influence of the Armorial movement into the movie O Auto da Compadecida and the Kitsch aesthetic in O Bem Amado deserve consideration, aside from the study on costumes function within narrative, supported by Roland Barthes’ structural analysis of the narrative. We sought to highlight the balance between characters’ lines and the image of the costumes in the movies. Adding to the study on how costumes strongly accounts to narrative, we observed characteristic traits of director and scriptwriter Guel Arraes present in his works, which are the northeastern man identity, a presentation of the Northeast and popular comedy. We believe that his choices when creating and his life influences are not separate from one another. Our research was movie-appraisal centered and had a thorough investigation all over language. The main considerations are supported by the following theories: Barthes (2007), Figueirôa and Fechine (2008), Moles (2001), Stuart Hall (2005) and Mikhail Bakhtin (2013).

O teatro de Elias Canetti em diálogo com a pós-modernidade

The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse the dramaturgic work of the Bulgarian author Elias Canetti, composed by the plays The Wedding, Comedy of Vanity and Their Days are Numbered, seeking to comprehend how the contemporary critic theories act on his trilogy, making a dialogue with theoretical references which may justify its approaching to the postmodernism. In this perspective, the theories by Jean-François Lyotard, Fredric Jameson and Jürgen Habermas contribute for a better comprehension of the postmodernity phenomenon. Undertaking Canetti’s notes and theatre with the philosophical concepts of Adorno’s negative aesthetics, we realise there is a space to reflect upon the theories which befell, like Foucault’s power relations in Micro-physics of Power and the discourses of resistance and deterritorialisation developed by Deleuze and Guattari in A Thousand Plateau and Anti-Oedipus. Even though Canetti’s plays were written between 1932 and 1956, all of them show a strong critic against modernism, and their characteristics did not help their recognition by the critics, which resulted in a rediscovery of Canetti’s plays after the author won the Nobel Prize in 1981.

Da poética das lágrimas a uma poética do riso: de Aristóteles ao One-man show

Since the 1970s, the world observes the fragmentation, hybridity, plurality and miscegenation that are taking over the scenic arts. The contemporary poetry feels free of the classical rules; theater no longer obeys the requirements of the poetic "manuals"; the rigid boundaries between genres disappears; artists cease to represent to the public to talk with him. In the last decades of twentieth century and in the twenty-first century, emerges the laughable phenomenon of One-man Show in the brazilian scene, object of this research, as a result of this evolution of the performing arts. It is a form of theater that emerged in the brazilian context, snatching public attention in alternative spaces, theaters and, as it should be, also on the Internet, often confused with the Stand-up Comedy. It is necessary a research that delimitate and pursue to identify the essential characteristics of the brazilian One- Man Show, not only by the absence of theoretical references concerning this, but also to understand some aspects of the brazilian scene and the situation of laughter and comedy in it. In the first chapter, a discussion about comedy and laughter in classical antiquity is presented, using the writings of Plato and Aristotle as a starting point; in the second, some of the main classical theories of laughter are reviewed, attempting to identify the general characteristics that enable to understand the construction of the comedy; the third chapter generally dicusses about the moment of the brazilian theatrical scene in which emerges the One-man Show; and in the fourth chapter, there is an explanation about this phenomenon and a description of the practical exercise titled Experimento One-person Show: Damas

A ARTE DA RETÓRICA E A AUDIÊNCIA GEOGRÁFICA: A RELAÇÃO TEXTO-LEITOR SOB A ÓTICA DAS FIGURAS REPRESENTATIVAS DE DISCURSO E DOS MODOS DE NARRATIVA

O objetivo deste estudo é refletir sobre o papel da retórica sobre a compreensão e assimilação do discurso geográfico. Para isso, optou-se pela análise da obra de Smith, intitulada “Geographical Rhetoric: Modes and Tropes of Appeal”, na qual trata das quatro figuras representativas de discurso e dos quatro modos de narrativa básicos da arte da retórica. Smith alerta para a necessidade dos geógrafos reconhecerem a existência de múltiplas audiências com preferências e preconceitos retóricos, e que não são idênticas às categorias institucionais e epistemológicas existentes, ou seja, para se convencer uma audiência, não basta falar a verdade, mas é preciso confirmar seus preconceitos e respeitar suas preferências. Essa constatação de um problema que perpassa os textos e a arte da retórica geográfica levou Smith a elaborar dois “mapas” sobre a relação do texto com o leitor. O primeiro deles contrasta os quatro modos de narrativa de um texto (romance, tragédia, comédia e ironia) com os quatro modos de narrativa preferidas do leitor. O segundo mapeamento faz a mesma comparação, mas com referência às figuras de discursos predominantes no texto, como a metáfora, a metonímia, a sinédoque e a ironia. Smith explica que a razão para se preocupar com a questão da retórica é que quando favorecemos ou excluímos o estilo de um autor, automaticamente aceitamos ou rejeitamos acriticamente seus argumentos. Assim, por meio de uma reflexão baseada em autores especializados, foi possível constatar a importância da arte da retórica nos discursos geográficos.
