Entre cristo e o diabo:o ideário do Colégio Americano Batista do Recife (1902-1942)

Due to lack of work on the history of Baptist schools in the Northeast region of Brazil, it is important to understand through a historical reconstruction of the Baptist Protestant education. We embarked on this venture as a chance to understand the presence of Protestant schools, and his ideas on Brazilian soil. Our goal is to promote a reflection which has the axial dimension of the Baptists Protestant education, in time, we will place the debate between 1902-1942. The temporal boundaries of 1902-1942 was because 1902 was when he started the American Baptist College of Recife in 1942 and that ends the cycle of managing directors of Americans. Understand the functionality of time a school is justified when we realize that the history of education is the story of a work of self and formation within a framework that has the school as the main support that can enable a reading of reality. We also intend to examine the school culture brought to Brazil by American missionaries and their applicability in the Brazilian cultural-historical context. And just to demonstrate the hypothesis that the educational contribution of Baptists added to the participation of other Protestants promoted advances in Brazilian society. Possibly taking for granted that the Baptists were in possession of the democratic ideals of religious freedom, taken by many representatives and religious version of the republican regime. In addition to promoting a model in Brazil to make different methodological schools, based on the ideals of new school and ethics of the Bible. Our proposed research aims at understanding how North American missionaries settled in Brazil and what were the purposes of adding to the efforts of evangelization to formal education, binomial that justified the establishment of schools. A vision of saving men for evangelization and education of the Devil attack victims over the ethics of Christ

Palavras da maldição: O Ceará de José Alcides Pinto entre símbolos e alegorias.

This work treats about the speeches that produced the crisis of symbols of Ceará, researching on matters and ways of expression of space between 1950s and 1970s. Therefore, we search discursive practices that since the end of nineteenth century built the identity of Ceará and in the middle of twentieth century produced the crisis of modes of seeing and telling the space in front of enunciations of the national modernization, especially with the emergence of politics by SUDENE to the Northeast, the progressive actions by Catholic Church, the defense of tradition by regional literature of union of Ceará Clã. The contradictions between the glorification and fear the modernization of Brazil produced on the space speeches that his identity would be fractured, that the old symbols of drought, cangaço, mysticism and colonels declined. Among analyzed speeches, we centered the analysis of Trilogia da Maldição formed of novels O Dragão, of 1964, Os Verdes Abutres da Colina and João Pinto de Maria: a biografia de um louco by José Alcides Pinto. In this novel, the enunciation of the crisis of symbologies about the space produced another aesthetic, the allegory, which, mixed with the mystical and melancholy, in search of ways to restore the language of the old themes Ceará, drop of Ceará the same stigma of anti-modern space, where the images of delay changed icons of a fractured identity in front of the modern streams, where the word was transformed in the dimension precarious and redeemer of the tradition, of old, of nature, of the plenitude of senses. In Jose Alcides, the colonel returns as the origin of the lost space, the drought is the revolt of God against the devil place, the apocalypse, the end imminent threat to the village, signs that fantastic, however, are in dialogue with the settings space and time in which they were produced

Do sertão a backlands: tradução e recepção de Guimarães Rosa em 1963

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo geral investigar a recepção crítica americana de Grande sertão: veredas (1956), logo após a publicação desta, em 1963, e ler as opções tradutórias da primeira tradução de Harriet de Onís (1869-1968) e de James Taylor (1892-1982), e em seguida trechos da segunda tradução americana mais recente, Grand sertão: veredas (2013), de Felipe W. Martinez. Como método utilizado para analisar a recepção crítica americana, destacam-se os estudos hermenêuticos literários de Hans Robert Jauss (1921-1997). Dessa forma, prioriza-se uma discussão com a tradução americana de Grande sertão: veredas, pois pontuam-se alguns trechos da tradução americana que servirão como objeto de análise da tradução, tendo como critério para as escolhas dos trechos relativos ao sertão (backlands), e ao encontro de Riobaldo e Diadorim em O-de-janeiro. Os parâmetros analisados na primeira tradução serão: a perda da poeticidade, os apagamentos, a alternância de nomes e palavras e alguns neologismos. Após a comparações a partir dos parâmetros entre Grande sertão: veredas e The devil to pay in the backlands, visa-se constatar o distanciamento do projeto dos tradutores e do projeto poético de João Guimarães Rosa. Com isso, embasamo-nos nos estudos de tradução de Antoine Berman (1942-1991), Lawrence Venuti (1953) e André Lefevere (1945-1996). Berman considera que a tradução é uma relação, um diálogo e uma abertura para o estrangeiro. Além dos parâmetros que comprovam uma tradução americana etnocêntrica, utilizam-se alguns recortes de periódicos cedidos pelo Instituto de Estudos Brasileiros da Universidade de São Paulo (IEB) num total de 10 textos sobre Guimarães Rosa. Esses recortes de jornais foram escritos em 1963. Por fim, nesta dissertação abordará sobre os posicionamentos dos jornalistas americanos diante da publicação da tradução rosiana de 1963 e a recepção crítica atual da tradução americana segundo Perrone (2000), Armstrong (2001), e Krause (2013).

Deus e o Diabo nos detalhes: a ética em Buber e Adorno

A autora aborda a Violência a partir de uma perspectiva ''personalista e fenomenológica'', para que não fique restrita ao seu sentido usual, de violação da integridade física. O artigo toma as filosofias de M. Buber e T. Adorno como plataforma da reflexão, ambas preocupadas em estabelecer uma ''fenomenologia dos sentidos'', e compara suas conseqüências éticas, mostrando como um compreensão ampliada da Violência emerge desse ponto de vista.

Sistema jagunço: localismo e universalismo em Grande sertão : veredas

Under different perspectives of interpretation and analysis, the notions of localism and universalism in the fictional production of Guimarães Rosa have been strongly explored by the criticism, especially in Grande sertão: veredas [The devil to pay in the backlands], in which these two dimensions – overlapped and complementary – become more intricate and profuse. Taking the analytical line of historical, social and political dimensions of the novel for granted – not regarding it as an essay or strict allegory of the country – the present study proposes a new reading of the composition with the interpretation of the articulation of these two dimensions in the forming of the “jagunço system” (ROSA, 1970, p.391), that is a concept created by Guimarães Rosa and which transcends the historical and sociological reality. The articulation of the social, political and cultural elements figure in Guimarães Rosa’s fiction and becomes an issue for wider debates and reflections, so that the particular element of the novel enables a universal survey. Based on diverse critical apprehensions of the novel, this paper aims to investigate the levels of the literary composition in which the local-universal articulation associated with the representation of the jagunço is constructed. In order to do that, the theoretical study is based on three dimensions of studies: a) critical essays about Guimarães Rosa, the totality of his work and specific critical essays about Grande sertão: veredas [The devil to pay in the backlands] and the “jagunço system”, b) theoretical apparatus concerning the history, the politics and the Brazilian culture related to the cangaço; and c) theoretical subsidies for the study of the narrative

Babel subjetiva ou a mais completa tradução: considerações sobre Budapeste de Chico Buarque

This paper discusses aspects of Budapest, by Chico Buarque, published in 2003. In the novel, a contingency takes the protagonist, a Brazilian, to Hungary. There, involved within a culture quite distinct from his, he has experiences in a strange language, which “even the devil respects”, and with an interesting woman, who teaches him the language. Both, language and woman, turns into mirrors that refract and put his subjective experience, as babelic as the Hungarian, up side down. Considering contingency as a category from the Real (Lacan) and translation as mechanism of subjective search of a blot origin (Derrida), at the same time transcreation (Haroldo de Campos), we will pinpoint some ways to the novel reading.
