A fim de contextualizar e de melhor refletir sobre algumas dessas alocuções, foi inicialmente montado um arcabouço teórico retórico necessário para pensar e analisar o discurso político hugoano. Objetivando desvelar a passagem de jovem monarquista para homem republicano, é feita uma discussão acerca da correlação entre o desenrolar dos acontecimentos históricos e a própria biografia de Hugo. Em seguida, divide-se o corpus dos discursos hugoanos, buscando agrupar os discursos segundo a tríade da Revolução Francesa: fraternidade igualdade e liberdade. A Revolução é o paradigma, pois estabeleceu uma República e tornou a todos cidadãos, não mais súditos, encerrando uma era de privilégios e distinções sociais baseadas no nascimento. Os ideais da revolução não tendo sido plenamente alcançados levam Hugo a retomar os combates almejando, então, uma real revolução. Exilado, o II Império, de Napoléon le Petit, tornou-se a Bastilha a ser conquistada. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / This research aims to think the rhetoric in the speeches by Victor Hugo during his exile and also how the freedom in its various forms is the main theme of these texts. In order to contextualize and better reflect on some of these speeches it was initially mounted a rhetorical theoretical framework necessary to think and analyze the hugoan political discourse. Aiming to reveal the passage of young monarchist to republican man, is made a discussion about the correlation between the unfolding of historical events and Hugo biography itself. Then, it was divided the corpus of hugoan speeches trying to group the speeches according to the triad of the French Revolution: fraternity equality and freedom. The Revolution is the paradigm, because it established a republic and made all citizens, not subjects, ending an era of privilege and social distinctions based on birth. The ideals of the revolution have not been fully achieved leading Hugo to resume fighting craving, then a real revolution. Exiled, the Second Empire of Napoléon le Petit, became the Bastille to be won.

The purpose of this investigation is to arrive at an understanding of Fritz von Unruh's work by examining the author's modes of characterization. Unruh repeatedly introduces kindred characters, character types, and configurations of characters, but uses differing methods of characterization to portray them. By investigating the works completed between 1910 and 1932 and by relating Unruh's techniques of characterization to the total structure of these works, a pattern may be observed which demonstrates that Unruh gradually adapts pre-Expressionist methods of characterization to those typically associated with Expressionism, by depersonalizing hi; characters and by subordinating them to the portrayal of one central figure. This pattern has its roots in the pre-war dramas, culminates in the works completed during the war, and attenuates in the post-war plays. The various stages of this metamorphosis are ultimately related to the message-oriented nature of the works. In the early plays, the conventions of pre-Expressionist drama are gradually adapted to suit the portrayal of contemporary Wilhelminian reality and of a central figure who fights for a reintroduction of the ideals of the past. In the works completed between 1914 and 1918 the author subjects his major characters to a transformation: he presents the figures as types, uses a form of character fragmentation, and makes the plot development as well as the scenic and dialogue composition subservient to the propagation of the ideas incorporated by the central characters. In the post-war plays, finally, each of these modes of character delineation is increasingly less subservient to the major figures, but characterizes the negative, unredeemed world about them, against which they have to assert themselves. In these plays, the redemption of man is no longer sought in a past or present reality, but in a realm in which objective reality is transfigured and transformed. / Arts, Faculty of / Central Eastern Northern European Studies, Department of / Graduate
