Este trabalho, portanto, busca compreender de que maneira o romance O Cabeleira, publicado em 1876, pelo escritor cearense Franklin Távora, procura representar a realidade do Brasil da segunda metade do século XIX. Na perspectiva do projeto nacionalista de Távora, conhecido como Literatura do Norte, o autor pretendeu com essa obra mostrar os dilemas, as contradições e os problemas sociais existentes nas províncias. No primeiro momento, acompanhamos brevemente a trajetória familiar e o contexto social e político no qual o escritor estava inserido, bem como algumas formulações sobre o regionalismo pitoresco; em seguida, nós nos apoiamos nas concepções de sistema literário brasileiro, fornecidas por Antonio Candido, para entendermos o contexto da tradição regionalista da qual Franklin Távora faz parte; por fim, associamos a transformação do protagonista à construção estética da narrativa, considerando os aspectos românticos e naturalistas que a compõem e as suas implicações para a representação artística da realidade n’O Cabeleira. _______________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / The brazilian literature’s experience has in regionalism a peculiar way of literary representation. This work, ergo, seeks to understand in which way the novel O Cabeleira, published in 1876, by the cearense writer Franklin Távora, seeks to represent Brazil’s reality in the second half of the 19th century. In the perspective of Távora’s nationalist project, presented as Literatura do Norte (Northern Literature), the writer intended to show in O Cabeleira the dilemmas, the contradictions and the existent social issues in the provinces. At first, we briefly follow the familial path and the social and political context which the author was inserted into, as well as some formulations about the picturesque regionalism; next, we rely on the conceptions of brazilian literary system, supplied by Antonio Candido, so that we may understand the context of the regionalist tradition in which Franklin Távora is part of; lastly, we associate the protagonist’s transformation to the narrative's aesthetical construction, regarding the romantic and naturalist aspects that compose the narrative and its involvements to the artistic representation of reality in O Cabeleira.

Argumento que, para melhor conhecer esta experiência, há que se considerar uma conjuntura nitidamente emancipacionista ¿ tanto do ponto de vista de uma política arquitetada e controlada pelo Estado, como pelas ações capitaneadas pelos escravizados, negros livres e libertos. Nesta conjuntura, se ampliou a interação entre indivíduos com estatutos jurídico diferenciados, ligados por laços de família, parentesco, relacionamentos afetivos e comunitários, o que nos legou uma história afro-brasileira repleta de sujeitos em situações complexas ou inusitadas, a exemplo das muitas histórias contadas ao longo deste trabalho. Para a elaboração deste estudo, foi realizada uma ampla pesquisa em fontes arquivísticas e historiográficas, através das quais se realizaram problematizações elucidativas sobre a experiência de vida familiar negra e do cotidiano da escravidão. A combinação de fontes qualitativas e demográficas favoreceu a compreensão dos sentidos que os negros conferiam às suas próprias experiências / Abstract: In this study I investigate black family life in the context of the slave-based society of Bahia, Brazil in the second half of the 19th century. My research particularly examines how social, economic and political changes in the final decades of slavery influenced family relations among blacks, whose legal statuses often differed within the same kin group. I argue that in order to best understand this experience, we must consider it within a distinctly emancipationist set of conditions ¿ including the gradual abolitionist policies constructed and controlled by the State, as well as the self-directed actions toward the liberation of family members by enslaved, free and freed black people. Given these particular historical circumstances, interactions developed among individuals of different legal statuses linked to each other through family ties, affective relationships and broader community connections. This study contributes to understanding a remarkable Afro-Brazilian history of individuals and families in complex and uncommon situations, many of which are reflected in stories told in this work. The study is based on extensive investigation in archival and historiographic sources, by means of which I was able to illuminate important scholarly questions related to 19th century black family life and the daily experience of slavery. A combination of qualitative and demographic sources facilitated an exploration of the meanings that blacks conferred on their own personal and collective experiences as members of family groupings / Doutorado / Historia Social da Cultura / Doutor em História

Levando em consideração a diversidade regional que compõe o cenário abarcado na pesquisa, foi possível visualizar uma diversidade de posicionamentos em relação à campanha pela abolição e mesmo o crescimento de um clima de tensão e violência frente à rebeldia escrava e a atuação de grupos abolicionistas espalhados pela província. / The main objective of this work is understand the unfolding of the process of extinction of slavery in Minas Gerais, especially regarding the role abolitionist during the 1880s, analyzing the actions of militant ant-slavery, slaves, masters and public authorities, through a corpus documentary made by newspapers, reports memoirs, police correspondence and official reports. Taking into account the regional diversity that makes up the scenario encompassed in the research, it was possible to view a variety of positions in relation to the campaign for the abolition and even the growth of a climate of tension and violence caused by slave rebellion and the abolitionists action groups spread across the province.

In this thesis I have addressed some of the problems that have arisen in critical approaches to the nonsense works of Edward Lear from the late nineteenth century. I have entitled it “Reading Nonsense” because my central concern is with how best to apprehend the paradoxes inherent in literary nonsense, which inevitably raises interpretative questions. Because nonsense is a “basic type of communication” whose essence is “unresolved tension between [the] presence and absence of meaning” (Tigges, Anatomy 51), we are called upon either to “make sense of” that which claims to offer up no meaning or to surrender ourselves to meaninglessness. Broadly, critical approaches to nonsense fall into two classes: those that maintain that nonsense is not, in fact, “not sense”, but rather a kind of symbolic language that can be reconciled into meaning; and those which uphold the nonsensicality of nonsense, maintaining that certain ambiguities and paradoxes cannot be accounted for, and it is inappropriate to try to do so. In addition, Lear’s texts are situated in various traditions of writing for children and adults and in the distinctive setting of the Victorian era; and these cultural and literary influences play an important role in the interpretation and misinterpretation of nonsense. My first chapter comprises a mise en scène of the genre of literary nonsense; while in Chapter 2 I turn to the cultural backdrop of Lear’s nonsense in particular, and examine one of the claims frequently made in nonsense criticism: that Lear’s literary nonsense is distinctively “Victorian”. Chapter 3, “How to Read a Learian Limerick”, rests on the exegesis of nonsense that appears in Chapter 1, for here I propose a technique for reading Lear’s limericks that preserves both their “sensical” and nonsensical elements in contrast to critical analyses that attempt to reconcile the nonsense into a code. In Chapter 4 I examine Lear’s songs from the critical perspectives of nonsense and of romanticism. Finally, in conclusion, I consider the role and significance of humour in nonsense, and gesture towards further possible explorations, including in the appendix my essay on the nonsense poetry of South African writer Philip de Vos.
