Miguel Torga: em busca do paraíso perdido / Miguel Torga: search for lost paradise

Ferreira, Raquel Terezinha Rodrigues 06 March 2009 (has links)
Levando em conta a importância dos textos memorialísticos, e a de Miguel Torga no cenário literário português, esta tese propõe um estudo de uma das obras-primas deste autor, A criação do mundo. Fundamentada no modelo descritivo e interpretativo de leitura proposto por Fredric Jameson, a análise mostra que na organização formal da narrativa que difere tanto dos outros escritos do autor quanto de outros textos memorialísticos conhecidos, os mascaramentos ou estratégias de contenção suavizam assuntos com os quais Torga não consegue lidar e falam mais do autor do que é manifesto no texto. / Taking into account both the importance of memorialistic texts and of Miguel Torga in the Portuguese literary scene, this thesis proposes a study of one of this author\'s masterpieces, The creation of the world (A criação do mundo). Based on Fredric Jameson\'s descriptive and interpretive model of reading, the analysis shows that in the formal organization of the narrative, that differs from other writings by the author as well as from other well-known memorialistic texts, the maskings or contention strategies serve to soften up matters which Torga can\'t deal with and end up saying more of the author than what is manifest in the text.

In order to do so, the starting point of this study relied on the cultural practices and memories of the local black population. Chronologically situated between the years 1930 and 1960, the research took as its guide line the so called micro-Áfricas places of resistance in which the cultural practices are developed and conformed. Taking into account that the district has story foundation deeply related to the Eurocentric hegemony, the survey recognizes the emergence of the black experience and it assumes space of resistance, so as to shed light on realize stories, protagonism and memories, once invisible in the past / Este trabalho tem como objetivo central refletir sobre a presença negra no bairro paulistano de Guaianases a partir de suas práticas culturais e memórias. Tendo como base cronológica os anos entre 1930 e 1960, tomaram-se como fio condutor os lugares de resistência onde tais práticas se conformaram e se desenvolveram, as assim chamadas micro-Áfricas. Diante de um bairro que tem suas histórias de fundação e desenvolvimento alicerçadas na hegemonia eurocêntrica, a pesquisa reconhece a emergência da experiência negra e assume-se enquanto espaço de resistência, com a finalidade de fazer perceber histórias, protagonismos e memórias, outrora invisibilizados

Beauvoir entre l’intime et l’historique : le paradoxe des Mémoires / Beauvoir between the personal and the historical : the paradox of the Mémoires

Martin, Annabelle 07 July 2011 (has links)
Ce travail, qui propose une lecture de l’ensemble de l’œuvre autobiographique de Beauvoir, ne vise pas l’exhaustivité. Il cherche plutôt à restituer une image plus exacte de la trajectoire, de l’évolution et des infléchissements de ce projet monumental. De nombreux écrits jusque-là ignorés ont été publiés, dans des temps récents, de façon posthume. Ces textes nouveaux contribuent à ébranler une image simplificatrice ou réductrice de Beauvoir – celle qui le plus souvent se profile, de manière exclusive, soit à travers Le Deuxième sexe, soit à travers le couple Sartre-Beauvoir, soit à travers la conversion politique. Lire de manière méthodique les écrits autobiographiques de Beauvoir, c’est tenter de comprendre comment une intellectuelle et une écrivaine se construit et se distingue. Elle prend certes le contre-pied de ses origines familiales et culturelles. Mais elle va aussi parfois à l’encontre de ses propres tropismes. Une lecture précise, chronologique, mettant en rapport les différentes strates du texte, révèle de telles contradictions. Dans ce dispositif, les Cahiers de jeunesse, récemment publiés en 2008, jouent un rôle particulier. Ils montrent comment la vie intellectuelle de Beauvoir est d’abord une vie intérieure, spirituelle, qui prend même parfois des allures mystiques. Ils montrent surtout, au départ de la vocation littéraire et philosophique, une veine introspective qui fut contrariée un temps par deux tendances antinomiques : d’une part la fascination pour le roman (genre nettement valorisé aux yeux du couple Sartre-Beauvoir) et d’autre part, l’obsession grandissante à l’égard de l’Histoire majuscule. A ces deux facteurs, il faut en rajouter un troisième : le refoulement lié à la défiance à l’égard de l’intime, nettement alimentée par le compagnonnage intellectuel avec Sartre. Dans cette perspective, il m’a paru essentiel de confronter les journaux de Beauvoir, en particulier son Journal de guerre, au texte des Mémoires, qui d’ailleurs y fait constamment référence – sans compter qu’ils intègrent parfois des fragments de journal. Il apparaît, d’une façon générale, que la relecture des journaux, œuvre de toute une vie, a été constante, qu’elle a nourri l’écriture des Mémoires, que celle-ci, conséquemment, a oscillé, selon un mouvement pendulaire, entre l’introspection et la rétrospection. Les Mémoires sont à l’évidence une reconstruction du passé comme tout récit mémorial. Ils le sont plus encore lorsqu’on songe au texte princeps qui les a précédés, et lorsqu’on prête attention à leur archéologie.L’entreprise des Mémoires se présente comme une solution de compromis à l’égard de ces pulsions contradictoires. Elle propose une combinaison originale entre l’écriture de l’intime et l’écriture de l’Histoire, l’écriture de soi et l’écriture des autres. Mais c’est l’ensemble du projet, l’ensemble des écrits autobiographiques qui met en évidence la complexité des intentions et des registres, c’est cet ensemble qui donne pleinement la mesure du projet singulier de Beauvoir.Tous les gestes d’écriture qui composent l’entreprise mémoriale sont indissolublement liés, et en même temps, ils ne se ressemblent pas tout à fait. Une telle diversité des écrits intimes et mémoriels, à la fois totalisatrice et foisonnante, pourrait contribuer à revisiter une théorie parfois un peu figée de l’autobiographie qui tend à classer des sous-genres cloisonnés en les rapportant à des critères distincts, ou en les considérant sous la catégorie générale de l’écriture de soi. / This study, which offers a reading of all the autobiographical writings of de Beauvoir, is not intended to be exhaustive. Its aim is rather to provide a more exact picture of the trajectory, the evolution and the shifting movement of her massive project. Many previously unknown writings have been published posthumously in recent times. These new texts contribute to the undermining of a simplistic and reductive image of de Beauvoir, an image drawn exclusively either from The Second Sex, from the Sartre - de Beauvoir couple, or from her political conversion.In a methodical reading of de Beauvoir’s autobiographical writings, one can attempt to grasp how a woman intellectual and writer constructs herself and marks herself off from others. She undoubtedly turns against her familial and cultural origins, but she is also capable of going against her own tropisms. A precise chronological reading that relates the different strata of the text reveals such contradictions. In such an approach, the Cahiers de jeunesse, published in 2008, play an important role. They show how de Beauvoir’s intellectual life is at first an interior, spiritual life that sometimes even has something mystical about it. Above all, at the outset of a literary and philosophic vocation, the Cahiers show an introspective vein that was for a time thwarted by two opposite tendencies: on the one hand a fascination with the novel (a genre that was highly valued in the Sartre-de Beauvoir couple), on the other hand a growing obsession with History. To these two factors a third must be added: a repression linked to a distrust of the intimate that was clearly fed by the intellectual companionship with Sartre. In this perspective, I thought it essential to confront de Beauvoir’s journals, in particular her Journal de guerre, to the text of the Mémoires, which in any case constantly refer to it and even integrate fragments from it. It would appear in a more general way that her re-reading of the journals, the work of her entire life, was constant, that it fed into the writing of the Mémoires, which as a consequence oscillate in a pendulum movement between introspection and retrospection. The Mémoires are clearly a reconstruction of the past, like all memoir narratives, but that becomes even more true when one thinks of the original text that preceded them and when their archaeology is taken into account.The Mémoires as a project are to be seen as a compromise between these contradictory urges. The enterprise provides an original combination of writing the intimate, writing History, writing the self and writing the other. However it is the project in its totality, the entire autobiographical corpus, that demonstrates the complexity of intention and register, it is this totality that makes it possible to take the measure of de Beauvoir’s singular project.All the gestures of writing that make up the memorial enterprise are indissolubly linked and at the same time different from one another. Such a diversity of intimate and memorial writing, at once systematic and multiple, may contribute to a revisiting of a somewhat rigid theory of autobiography that tends either to isolate sub-genres, classifying them by reference to distinct criteria, or else to bring everything back to the general category of writing the self.

Studentens lyckliga dar : Om representationen av upsaliensiskt studentliv på 1860- och 1870-talen i memoarer

Fahlén Godö, Oskar January 2007 (has links)
<p>The purpose of this Masters thesis is to examine the representation of student life in Uppsala in the 1860s and 1870s in memoirs. This purpose is achieved by contextualising the memoirs in two different analyses. In the first, the representation of student life in the memoirs is compared to that in another literary genre, the university novel, and it is found that the two representational forms paint completely contradictory pictures, where in the novels the higher education is depicted as rotten and in dire need of reformation, whereas in the memoirs the system, albeit somewhat flawed, works. The memoirs and the novels thus seem to be competing systems of representation, created in different discourses, wherein the purpose and nature of higher education widely differed. In the second analysis, the examination of the memoirs is based on research concerning the nation building process in Sweden during the 19th century. The representation of student life in the memoirs fits well into this process, the stories of carnivals, of the drill of the special student militia and, especially, of the abundant student male choir singing, creates a picture of students as a defined societal group with a special political agenda. This place in society is idealized, the male choir singers are, for example, depicted as an avant-garde of national consciousness, and depicted as mainly harmonious</p>

&quot / reconstructing&quot / The Ottoman Imperial Harem Of The Nineteenth Century: Memoirs Of Leyla Saz On The Old Ciragan Palace

Gunsoy, Harika Belkis 01 February 2012 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis aims to explore the Ottoman Imperial Harem in the second half of the nineteenth century by focusing on the memoirs of Leyla Saz, a well-known poet and musician (1850-1936). Belonging to an aristocratic family, Leyla Saz was admitted to the &Ccedil / iragan Palace at the age of four as Fatma Sultane&rsquo / s, (daughter of Abd&uuml / lmecid) maid of honour and witnessed closely the daily life in the Harem for more than twenty years. Her memoirs, dating 1920, are the earliest examples written by a court member or, in other words, by an insider. They are particularly important for documenting not only the Imperial Harem as a disappeared socio-cultural institution, but also its architectural setting as part of the Old &Ccedil / iragan Palace, built in 1841 but demolished in 1857. Accordingly, this thesis seeks to reconstruct the Old Palace and its Harem architecturally and culturally by reading these memoirs in parallel to the related historical and theoretical literature. In so doing, it discusses whether the memoirs perpetuate or challenge the orientalist discourses.

Foreign Bodies: Military Medicine, Modernism and Melodrama

White-Stanley, Debra Marie January 2006 (has links)
Foreign Bodies: Military Medicine, Modernism and Melodrama traces how representations of warfare in the modernist novel, girls' romances, nursing memoirs, and war films dramatize the humanitarian disaster of war through the figure of woman. My analysis focuses on the visual and literary poetics of violence as troped in and through the bodies of combat nurses. The "uncanny" serves as a lens to explore the complex links between gendered war work and the radical transgression of the boundaries of the nation state and the body experienced during wartime. To establish the unique explanatory power of the uncanny for gender issues, I trace how feminist and postcolonial theorists have revised Freud's analysis of the uncanny. I trace medical metaphors of wounding and infection in the novel and various cinematic adaptations of A Farewell to Arms (1932, 1951, 1957, 1996). I read the letters and diaries of World War I nurse Agnes von Kurowsky against the censored memoirs of American nurses Mary Borden and Ellen La Motte. I show how the uncanny aesthetic adopted by Ernest Hemingway in A Farewell to Arms is subverted by these women writers. I explore how these uncanny aesthetics also manifest in adolescent nursing romances from Sue Barton to Cherry Ames. With the onset of World War II, I trace how the discourse of foreign bodies in relation to the metaphor of malaria in the South Pacific. Focusing on the portrayal of the Japanese foreign body, often encoded through off-screen sound, I demonstrate how medical metaphors of malaria operate in films portraying nursing in the South Pacific such as So Proudly We Hail (1943) and Cry Havoc (1943). Turning to the Korean and Vietnam Wars, I explore the representation of post-traumatic stress disorder in M*A*S*H (1970) and in nursing memoirs such as American Daughter Gone to War (1992) and Home Before Morning (1983). I bring this history of nursing representation to bear on media texts concerning the war in Iraq including Baghdad E.R. (HBO, 2006).

Tyrimo tikslas – išanalizavus išeivijos rašytojų atsiminimus pagrįsti teiginį, kad išeivijos memuaristika kito nuo dokumentinių, politinę tematiką perteikiančių ligi subjektyvių, asmenines problemas analizuojančių kūrinių. Darbo objektu pasirinkti išeivijos rašytojų memuarai. Darbe naudojamasi analitiniu, aprašomuoju ir hermeneutiniu metodais. Ieškant tinkamo teorinio pagrindo, buvo pasirinktos prancūzų teoretiko Philippe`o Lejeune`o (1989) autobiografijos teorija ir kultūrologo Vytauto Kavolio (1998) teorinės įžvalgos analizuojant autobiografinius tekstus. Tyrime atsiminimų knygos buvo suskirstytos į memuarus ir žanro transformacijas. Memuarai dalijami į dokumentinius bei literatūrinius. Rašytojų dokumentiniai memuarai ima vyrauti apie 1940 – uosius metus, kai Lietuvą okupuoja sovietai. Šį faktą komentuoja rašytojai-politikai V. Krėvė, L. Dovydėnas, I.

The object of the work is the memoirs by exile writers. Analytical, descriptive and hermeneutical methods are used. The theory of autobiography by French theoretician Philippe Lejeune (1989) and the theoretical insights while analyzing autobiographical texts by Vytautas Kavolis (1998) were chosen as the theoretical background. In the research, the memoir books were divided into memoirs and genre transformations. Memoirs are subdivided into documentary and literary.

Šeinius, who closely observed the situation. Their memoirs are distinct because of relevant topics for the time, i.e. the abundance of facts, historical events and political details. Around 1950-1965, politics in the memoirs is changed by the problem of the relationship between the person and time or history. A distinctive feature of these texts is the abundance of tropes, figurative details, fictional elements and they are quite subjective (M. Vaitkus, J. Aistis, St. Yla, etc). The research emphasizes that at the end of the XX century (1965-2000) subjectivity becomes the main feature in order to describe memoirs.

1918–1945 m. Lietuvos istorinių įvykių refleksija St. Zaskevičiaus rankraštiniame palikime / The Reflection of 1918-1953 Lithuanian Historical Events in St. Zaskevičius’ Manuscript Legacy

Saugėnaitė, Ieva 02 June 2014 (has links)
Šio magistrinio darbo objektas yra Lietuvos kariuomenės karininko Stasio Zaskevičiaus (1892–1968) refleksija apie 1918 – 1945 m. Lietuvos politinio – visuomeninio gyvenimo įvykius. Šią refleksiją autorius pateikia memorialinėje studijoje „Vieni metai mūsų tautos gyvenime“, kuri leidžia sužinoti ir analizuoti autoriaus politines pažiūras, požiūrį į svarbius Lietuvai istorinius įvykius. Magistriniame darbe buvo formuluojama tokia tyrimo problema – kuo pasižymi St.Zaskevičiaus memorialinėje studijoje atsispindinčios autoriaus politinės pažiūros ir požiūris į istorinius įvykius. Darbo tikslas – remiantis antruoju ir trečiuoju St. Zaskevičiaus memorialinės studijos „Vieni metai mūsų tautos gyvenime“ sąsiuviniais, ištirti ir aprašyti St. Zaskevičiaus požiūrį į Lietuvos istorijos įvykius 1918 – 1945 m. Rengiant darbą buvo išsikelti tokie du uždaviniai: 1) įvertinti St.Zaskevičiaus požiūrį į nepriklausomos Lietuvos politinį – visuomeninį gyvenimą 1918 – 1940 m.; 2) išanalizuoti St.Zaskevičiaus požiūrį į Antrojo pasaulinio karo įtaką Lietuvos politiniam ir visuomeniniam gyvenimui; 3) įvertinti St. Zaskevičiaus santykį su dabartine istoriografija; Mokslinis darbo naujumas yra tas, kad tiesiogiai nagrinėtas St. Zaskevičiaus rankraštinis palikimas, t.y. pirminis egodokumento plačiąja prasme tipo šaltinis, kuris dar nebuvo jokiu pavidalu publikuotas, todėl memorialinė studija „Vieni metai mūsų tautos gyvenime“ niekada nebuvo bent kiek išsamiau analizuota ir vertinta moksline ar istorine... [toliau žr. visą tekstą] / The object of this master thesis is a reflection of Lithuanian army officer Stasys Zaskevičius (1892–1968) about political - social life in Lithuania in 1918 – 1945. The author provides a reflection in a memorial study "One year in our nation’s life“, allowing to learn and analyze the author’s political views, views on important historical events. Research problem of this master thesis was formulated in this way – what are characteristics of St.Zaskevičius’ political views and approach to historical events reflected in memorial study. This master thesis is archaeographycal analysis basicly dedicated to St. Zaskevičius manuscript’s exploration. The goal of the work – with reference to the second and third parts of St. Zaskevičius memorial study “One year in our nation’s life”, explore and describe St. Zaskevičius approach to historical events in Lithuania 1918 – 1945. There are two objectives: 1) to evaluate St.Zaskevičius approach of independent Lithuania’s political - social life in 1918 - 1940; 2) to analyze St.Zaskevičius approach of the Second World War impact on the Lithuania’s political and social life; 3) to evaluate St. Zaskevičius views relation with conpemporary historiography.
