Nas dobras da memória oficial: cidade, imagem e história na voz de rezadeiras de Capanema-PA

Em Capanema, no nordeste do Pará, mulheres rezadeiras, motivadas por fotografias, tecem narrativas históricas desvelando trajetórias de migrantes nordestinos para o município, elaborando representações do conflituoso cotidiano da vida urbana. Por meio de sensibilidades urdidas em simbiose de corpo, voz e imagens, as narradoras produzem práticas de leitura que permitem questionar a escrita convencional da história local, consagrada nos jogos mentais de centenas de moradores. Este artigo, portanto, seguindo a metodologia da História Oral e dialogando com intelectuais dos Estudos Culturais e Antropologia da Religião, ao cruzar a leitura de imagens oficiais com a interpretação dada pelas rezadeiras sobre tramas e dramas da urbe, numa perspectiva "vista de baixo" e popular, esgarça imaginários cristalizados, trazendo para a escrita da história outras experiências e paisagens culturais comumente postas nas dobras de retratos emoldurados pelo discurso do poder hegemônico.

O eterno feminino: arquétipos literários em Mujeres de Eduardo Galeano

Le champ littéraire est plein d’oeuvres qui remettent à des mythes. L’ensemble de récits Mujeres, de Eduardo Galeano, a comme thématique la femme et il est composé par des micro-contes, genre narratif qui promeut une condensation maximale d’eléments thématiques et structuraux. Il s’agit des descriptions littéraires où la synthèse est placée ou même niveau que le lyrisme. Ayant pour objectif d’analiser la nature archétypique des mythes sur la féminité, nous avons travaillé spécifiquement les contes de Mujeres où se reconstruisent poétiquement des mythes de la féminité. Méthodologiquement, notre notre étude a pour base la mythocritique et la théorie des structures anthropologiques de l’imaginaire ídéalisées par Gilbert Durand. En partant de ces bases, nous avons réalisé l’analyse des récits qui s’articulent en notre corpus, ayant pour but, celui d’identifier les divers artifices narratifs spécifiques qui y opèrent. Par le moyen des mythèmes présents dans les récits, nous avons révélé les structures archétypiques du texte et nous avons constaté comment elles s’édifient littérairement. En outre, nous avons élucidé la teneur de la représentativité archétypique de la feminité inhérente aux récits et finalement, nous avons rassemblé les situations et les combinatoires qui existent dans l’ensemble de microrécits, traçant les connexions possibles qui y existent. Ainsi, nous avons fait une étude proprement dite, d´analyse mythocritique
