Tom e Vinícius na Alvorada: um prisma geográfico

This article has been generated by the interface between geography and music. Methodologically, we have used a multidisciplinary bibliography that contemplates cultural geography, history, music, linguistics, literature, anthropology, for we understand that, for the understanding of a polysemous code, as it is in music, we need a diversity of looks. Our main document for an analysis of the construction of Brasília is the “Sinfonia da Alvorada” (Symphony of the Dawn), composed by Antônio Carlos Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes. Here, we attempt mainly to do a textual analysis of the work under an external perspective of the symphonic work, we mean, analyzing more its semantics (considering the product between interlocution and interpretation), and less its instrumental aesthetics, although the latter is also present. Finally, we attempt to understand the connection that exists between the actors and the spaces which are metamorphosing along with the construction of the city and which puts into evidence the idea of social circularity, proposed by the “Sinfonia da Alvorada”. This piece captures social and cultural elements related to the construction of Brasília and repositions and rearranges it through the execution of the music, in such a way that this arrangement can provide a change in the senses which are constructed from the urban experience in Brasília.

Vinícius de Moraes, critico de cinema

Este estudo procura destacar a importância da participação de Vinícius de Moraes na crítica cinematográfica do início dos anos 40 (1941-42), exercida no jornal carioca A Manhã. Foi nessa coluna que Vinícius manteve aceso, de maio a julho de 1942, um debate que mobilizou todo o Brasil e, em especial, o Rio de Janeiro: a polêmica cinema mudo X cinema falado. Participam da polêmica, entre outros, Otávio de Faria, Manuel Bandeira, Afonso Arinos de Mello Franco, Humberto Mauro, Aníbal Machado. Nessa ocasião, ainda que timidamente, o cinema brasileiro começou a ser discutido, embora ainda não lhe fosse atribuída grande importância.

Vinicius de Moraes e Shelley: um exercício de desleitura .

Using Harold Bloom s methodology known as dialectical revisionism we undertake the task of misreading of Vinícius de Moraes (1913- 1980) poems Poética (1950), Operário em construção (1955), Poética II (1960) against Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) and his poem A Song: Men of England, suggesting that the Brazilian poet trammeled a battle with his poetic triad, in which Operário em Construção is Vinicius s main weapon. It is suggested here that each one of Vinícius´poem represents a step of what Bloom calls anxiety of influence . The misreading proposed confronts the themes and the imagery of the poems, arguing that Shelley and Vinícius are similar when they approach exploitation and working class consciousness according to the Dialectic Marxism pattern, and that Vinícius´s poem was not only inspired by Shelley s, but using one of the strategies suggested by Bloom, he corrects the ideological flaws of Shelley s poem. It is also discussed the possibility that both poems are inspired by Plato´s (428-7 a 348-7 a.C.) allegory of the cave, his concept of justice and the moral construction of the polis defended in A República. Thus, considering the process of misreading, these five poems constitute what Bloom calls a family romance , which is characterizes the phenomenon of melancholy of creativity
