Light in the poetry by Saint-Denys Garneau appears in touches. At first imperceptible, it is soon revealed through the movement of wind or water. If the light in movement gives form to the landscape by outlining the contour of things, the fixed light, on the other hand, hollows out large holes of darkness which engulf the landscape. The space thus displayed reduces the poet to anonymity and silence. The conflict pulling the poet between these two forms of light, which refers to the problematics of Orpheus' song and sight, as defined by Blanchot, constitutes the drama of Saint-Denys Garneau. The poet thus seems to rest only in the midst of the transparence, this excess of clarity which transfigures things without however destroying their unchanging appearance. / Light thus determines the poet's attitude facing the world. Each day is lived out according to the ascent or decline of light. One can thus observe how the morning, afternoon and night inspire in Saint-Denys Garneau particular states of mind and songs. Light is indissociable from Saint-Denys Garneau's poetic process. This study should allow me to show that the poet's failure is not exclusively the result of exterior hostile forces acting upon his poetic undertaking, but that it places itself, on the contrary, within this poetic undertaking insofar as the silence (the darkness of the fixed light) is the necessary risk to the word (the light in movement).

Even though Western music appeared only about one hundred years ago in Korea, it was rapidly popularized in the country. Since the Korean War (1950-1953), South Korea embarked on a path of remarkable economic growth and political stability. The appreciation of Western music, too, grew quickly. Since the 1960s, many talented Korean composers have been recognized around the world. However, scholarly studies discussing their artistry and music are scarce in Western countries. Young Jo Lee, one of the leading composers in Korea today, has a growing reputation. Lee has been invited to many festivals, concerts, and conferences where his works have been staged internationally. A primary compositional feature of his music is the combination of Korean traditional musical gestures with Western compositional elements. The Korean Dance Suite, one of Young Jo Lee’s most important piano works, reveals Lee’s uniqueness as a national Korean composer. The study examines the Korean Dance Suite (“Heaven Dance,” “Children’s Dance,” “Lovers Dance,” “Buddhist Dance,” and “Peasant Dance”) for the features of Young Jo Lee’s innovative and dramatic sound elements. The purpose of this study is to analyze the pieces and to trace Lee’s borrowings from Korean traditional music as well as the ways in which he adapts them to Western musical ideas. This study helps performers create an accurate interpretation when presenting these pieces. In addition, these little-known works will benefit teachers and students in creating an expanded repertoire. / School of Music

The reference to the body is a recurring and almost obsessive theme in Annette Messager's work. However, for the first time with Penetration (1993-1994) the artist investigates the inside of the body. / Anatomically descriptive and strangely symbolical the components of this hanging composition make up a huge portrait of the elements with which we are composed. With this thesis, I will demonstrate what is revealed is the body's structure: its content, its secrets, what is on the other side of the physical border and what soaks the flesh, the forces that bring us alive. / In addition, although the composition suggests a three-dimensional anatomical model, I will reveal it remains a distinctly visual and cerebral experience: a conceptualization of the body rather than the body's itself. Penetration stands for a view of ourselves that we know not from any real familiarity but from visual diagrams that have been derived from scientific research and consensus since, its separate elements and colors are taken from medical illustration. / Using artistic and historic examples, I will establish that even though the human body proposed by Messager is based on the anatomical model it is not a flattened representation reduced to an erudite enumeration but rather a three-dimensional model which can be experienced from within. / Messager stages the possibility of a face-to-face with the spectator. Inside Penetration the body recalls the very body materiality, a body where "dead" dangling internal organs "come to life" via the viewers' participation, via their penetration. The relationship of scale is upset and the spectators are invited to penetrate inside the body: to see things from up-close, to feel its elements, to touch its parts. / With Penetration Messager confronts the spectators with an intimate act as she directs them under (or rather) inside somebody's skin and forces them to confront their own sense of embodiment. Messager honours the physical body as our primary means of experiencing the world. I will ascertain that with her specific treatment of the body and without having to rely on modern technology, the artist offers an inquiry into the body as well as questions notions of embodiment. In other words, I will demonstrate Penetration exemplifies a complex set of negotiations between body and space: negotiations between the actual domain of the real body of the viewer and the three-dimensional (virtual) domain of the represented body and represented spaces. / In conclusion, I will propose that via the sense of touch Annette Messager produces a body where there is no escape between objective seeing and subjective feeling and where the human experience is formed and transformed.

Informe de Seminario para optar al grado de Licenciado en Lengua y Literatura Hispánica mención Literatura. / En este informe trabajaré con una novela latinoamericana, particularmente argentina, signada bajo la autoría de Osvaldo Soriano: Triste Solitario y final . Debido a las pretensiones que tengo para con este objeto, atenderé al contexto de producción, pues pretendo interrogar los discursos que lo cruzan y la cultura que lo organiza -siempre datada y sometida a una historicidad-. Sin embargo, este contexto no opera en una sincronía perfecta, por lo tanto, me ocuparé permanentemente de problemáticas que se desarrollan más claramente en la historia de las naciones latinoamericanas con posterioridad al contexto de producción de la novela, utilizando ésta como un nódulo entre una historia anterior y una posterior, es decir, como un espacio de diálogo entre la tradición (¿literaria?) latinoamericana y la lectura que es posible hacer –hoy- bajo el prisma de la novela.

This diploma thesis focuses on Marie Kudeříková (1921-1943), an almost forgotten figure of the Czech resistance to Nazi occupation, but previously a significant heroine of the Czech state socialist era. It observes her representations in various stages since 1946 to the present and scrutinizes the vitality of her myth and her personal life experience. The thesis tries to show how her life experience was connected to the officially constructed socialist myth, while this fact had determined her following representations and reading of the figure. Hence it shows how the myth of Marie Kudeříková was given by the changes of the official discourse, cultural policy and contemporary ideologies. The mythical constructions of the state socialism are then compared with post-communist representations of her person.

Para tanto, buscamos mapear os usos da praça no final do século XIX e como se deram as alterações físicas e simbólicas no século seguinte quando aquele logradouro passou a ser completamente inserido nas dimensões urbanas da cidade, sendo escolhido como local de construções das caixas de água (reservatórios de abastecimento da cidade) e do prédio da Faculdade de Direito. Assim, tentamos mostrar como o crescimento da cidade modificou as formas de lidar com os espaços públicos. O trabalho parte da perspectiva de que os espaços são construídos pelos seus sujeitos e ganham novos significados à medida que estes sujeitos recriam novos símbolos e referências para si. Como recurso, utilizamos documentos de caráter variado: Almanaque, Códigos de Postura, Jornais, Décimas Urbanas, Crônicas, Fotografias, Guia da Cidade, Relatórios dos Presidentes do Estado e Plantas urbanísticas.

Para tal fim, investigo o gênero de horror partindo do pensamento da corrente filosófica do realismo especulativo e, em particular, do autor Eugene Thacker, que reconhece no espectro da extinção humana que assombra gradativamente nossas vidas hoje – catástrofes ambientais, pandemias, guerras – a dificuldade em se pensar a existência de um mundo de onde fomos extintos. Tal pensamento traz um limite em si: a imagem de um mundo impensável que se situa nas fronteiras da dicotomia ciência e magia. A necessidade política de se pensar a coexistência entre o mundo não humano dos processos naturais e o mundo humano objetificado aponta para a importância do horror como um campo epistemológico privilegiado de investigação que, há tempos, tem no conhecimento dessa coexistência seu foco de interesse. Nesse contexto, opto por seguir minha investigação por meio do exame do pensamento do cineasta David Cronenberg, considerado um autor fundamental do horror. Juntamente com a perspectiva de Thacker sobre o mundo, investigo a hipótese de que a obra do diretor canadense perfaz uma visão autoral que pode ser compreendida como um dispositivo de uma cosmovisão de horror. A partir de uma particular dicotomia de seu cinema, que se apresenta cindido entre uma estética ora fantasiosa, ora mais realista, minha proposta segue a intuição de que há, na tensão dessa contradição, uma afinidade eletiva entre a dicotomia realidade e fantasia que associa sua obra ao horror. A motivação dessa hipótese está na premissa de que o cinema de Cronenberg encontra sua unidade como um pensamento sobre o corpo humano. Por meio do reconhecimento desta afinidade, os corpos dos personagens dos filmes revelam-se como significantes da monstruosidade, tal como pensada por Georges Canguilhem. Revelada a monstruosidade do corpo, a visão estética autoral do diretor pode ser entendida como a expressão de uma fantasiosa visão de lugar nenhum, cuja perspectiva de estranhamento radical se revela como fonte de uma experiência de horror fundamental. ‘New Flesh’, expressão cunhada pelo diretor em um de seus filmes para nomear a monstruosidade do corpo de seu personagem, é utilizada nesta pesquisa como conceito estético que operacionaliza essa afinidade entre realidade e fantasia no cinema de Cronenberg. Ao fim da dissertação, aprofundando a relação inerente da New Flesh com a noção de construção de realidade, experimento ludicamente este conceito como o dispositivo mediador de uma cosmovisão de horror. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / This work aims to investigate the development of the importance of horror genre in understanding the tragic human condition today. To this end, I investigate the horror genre following the philosophical thought of speculative realism, and particularly the author Eugene Thacker, who recognizes in the spectrum of human extinction that gradually haunts our lives today – environmental disasters, pandemics, wars – the difficulty in thinking of a world where we went extinct. This thought brings a limit within: the image of an unthinkable world that lies on the borders of the dichotomy science and magic. The political need to think about the coexistence between the nonhuman world of natural processes and the objectified human world point to the importance of horror as a privileged epistemological field of research, that has been having, in the knowledge of that coexistence, for a long time, its focus of interest. In that context, I choose to follow my research by examining the thought of the cinema director David Cronenberg, considered a key author of horror. Together with Thacker’s perspective, I investigate the hypotheses that the work of the Canadian director compiles an authorial vision that can be comprehended as an apparatus of a horror worldview. From a singular dichotomy of his work, divided between films with fanciful aesthetics and others with a realistic aesthetics, my proposal follows the intuition that there is on the stress of that contradiction, an elective affinity between the dichotomy reality and fantasy, which link his work to horror. The motivation of this hypothesis is grounded in the assumption that Cronenberg’s films finds their unity as a thought of the human body. By means of the recognition of this affinity, the bodies of his film's characters are revealed as signifiers of monstrosity as thought by Georges Canguilhem. Revealed the monstrosity of the body, the director's authorial vision can be understood as the expression of a fantasy view from nowhere, whose perspective of radical strangeness is revealed as a source of a fundamental horror experience. ‘New Flesh’, an expression coined by the director in one of his films, is used in this research to name the aesthetics concept that will operationalize this affinity between reality and fantasy in Cronenberg's work. By the end of the dissertation, deepening the relation of the New Flesh with the notion of construction of reality, I experiment playfully with this concept as an apparatus of mediation of a horror worldview.

Mediada pela poesia, a dissertação busca empreender uma jornada em busca de vestígios estéticos que conferem à obra de Malick um caráter estilístico singular. Por meio de análises dos planos, das paisagens, do uso da luz natural ao limite, da trilha sonora, da voz over, da moral religiosa, do afeto, das trevas, da vida, da natureza e da graça presentes em cada um dos seis filmes do diretor (considerando apenas os que estrearam em circuito comercial até julho de 2015), desenharemos uma cartografia teopoética à luz do conceito do teólogo alemão Karl-Josef Kuschel, porém assumindo como espinha dorsal diálogos com a fenomenologia dos devaneios de Gaston Bachelard, de onde pretendemos desvendar o instante teopoético em Malick. / Dinosaur trails: a theopoetic expedition throughout Terrence Malick films concerns the consonances and disonances of the american director’s work in relation to aspects of the poethics of the divine. Mediated by poetry, the present dissertation engages a journey in order to find aesthetics traces which give Malick’s cinematography an unique stylistic feature. Throughout analisys of framing, landscapes, natural light at the limit, soundtrack, voice over, religious moral, affection, darkness, life, nature and grace in each one of his six full-lenght movies (considering only the theatrical releases dated ‘til July of 2015), we will delineate a theopoetic cartography illuminated by the concept of german theologist Karl-Josef Kuschel, taking on, as backbone, a close dilaogue with Gaston Bachelards’s reverie phenomelogy.
