Procuramos estabelecer um diálogo entre a nossa escuta das canções e as leituras críticas que as tomam isoladamente, como texto poético apenas. De modo a questionar os dois pólos extremos em que é confinada sua poética: Ou o poeta é visto enquanto um artista de vanguarda continuador de uma certa tradição do novo, de inventividade e rigor construtivo; ou como romântico libertário radical, que por coerência com seu projeto poético-existencial, renuncia a vida / Abstract: Our study bends over Torquato Neto¿s songs, prior to his participation at the Tropicalism, which has a similar profile of the activist song, of protest, in the middle of the 1960s, and during his involvement with the movement, turning them into a beginning of questioning the established critical discourses about his poetry. We try to establish a dialogue between our listening to the songs and the critical readings which consider them separately, as a poetic text only. So that we can question the two opposite extremes in which his poetry is confined to: either the poet is seen as an avant-garde artist who continues a certain tradition again, of ingenuity and constructive rigidity, or as a romantic radical libertarian who, in accordance with his political-existential project, abandons his life / Mestrado / Literatura Brasileira / Mestre em Teoria e História Literária

XX. Toma como exemplo e reflexo destas mudanças, a obra de José Eduardo Gramani e suas pesquisas sobre a rabeca brasileira e o movimento de interpretação histórica da música antiga. Tem como ponto de referência o ensaio Em defesa de Bach contra seus admiradores de Theodor Adorno (1951), que discute o papel do intérprete contemporâneo face à música escrita no passado, em especial a de J. S. Bach, e a questão da autenticidade e do historicismo. A presente tese toma este ensaio do filósofo de Frankfurt como um ponto divisor, de onde pode-se vislumbrar as mudanças ocorridas no âmbito da interpretação musical dentro do que se convencionou chamar de pós-modernismo. Partindo do pressuposto da visão do intérprete musical, na qual incluo minha própria experiência enquanto intérprete do violino barroco e das rabecas brasileiras, bem como minha relação profissional direta com o músico José E. Gramani, analiso as mudanças do eixo que oscila entre subjetividade e objetividade na interpretação da obra musical, e que implicam decididamente na relevância do papel do intérprete como intermediário entre a obra musical e o ouvinte - de um lado o campo poiético, representado pela cultura do autor e do texto, e de outro o estésico, que considera a performance de uma obra como o resultado da colaboração entre o compositor e seus intérpretes, conforme sustenta o semiólogo Jean-Jacques Nattiez (2005). Ao abordar os princípios encampados por músicos alinhados com a musicologia aplicada, ou seja, que recuperaram a prática de música antiga em instrumentos de época, utilizo como porta-voz o músico, regente e pesquisador Nikolaus Harnoncourt que, a partir do início da década de 50, direcionou seus esforços para uma abordagem fenomenológica da interpretação musical, onde a praxis procura um equilíbrio em relação a theoria. A incômoda pergunta - porque instrumentos históricos? - implícita na crítica contida no ensaio de Adorno aos puristas, subsiste também de forma latente no questionamento da retomada de interesse pela cultura popular e seus agentes, nesse caso representado pelas rabecas brasileiras. Como resposta, analiso os processos que permitiram a esses instrumentos emergirem e redefinirem os seus estatutos dentro do contexto da cultura hegemônica de matriz erudita, não como indícios de uma nova onda nacionalista, aos moldes do espírito romântico de busca do puro e das origens, mas como renovação da linguagem erudita contemporânea, espelhando-se na criação literária de Guimarães Rosa. Procura-se definir de que forma a crise de centralidade característica do pós-modernismo e a questão do hibridismo e da autonomização de elementos da cultura popular, representados pela rabeca, foram musicalmente colocados na obra de José Eduardo Gramani, e de que forma seu interesse pelas rabecas é também tributário de seu enfoque inovador no ensino de rítmica e reflexo das mudanças nas práticas performáticas musicais ocorridas nas últimas décadas do séc. XX. / Abstract: This study examines changes in ways of performing music that took place in the second half of the 20th century. As an example and reflection of these changes, it takes the opus of José Eduardo Gramani and his research on the Brazilian rabeca and the context of "historically informed performance" (HIP). My point of reference is Adorno's essay 'Bach Defended against his Admirers' (1951), which discusses the role of contemporary performers in relation to music written in the past, particularly Bach's, and the question of authenticity and historicism. This thesis takes the Frankfurt philosopher's argument as a watershed for showing the changes in musical interpretation posed by what is conventionally called post-modernism. Based on the point of view of the musical performer, including my own experience playing Baroque violin and Brazilian rabecas, and my professional relationship with the musician José E. Gramani, I set out to analyze these changes on an axis that fluctuates between subjectivity and objectivity in rendering musical works, one which points to the key role of performers as intermediaries between listener and musical work - poietis represented by the culture of author and text, and esthesis examining the performance of a work as the outcome of collaboration between composer and performers, as posed by the semiotician Jean-Jacques Nattiez (2005). To look at the principles posed by musicians aligned with applied musicology, meaning those playing early music on period instruments, I have used the emblematic figure of Nikolaus Harnoncourt, the musician, conductor and researcher who strove to develop a phenomenological approach to playing music in the early 1950s, in which praxis is balanced by theory. The disturbing question - why historical instruments? - raised by Adorno's essay and its critique of purists is also latent in the questioning of renewed interest in popular culture and its agents, in this case Brazilian rabecas. As a response, I analyze the processes leading to the emergence of these instruments and redefine their status within the context of the hegemonic culture of the classical matrix, not as signs of a new wave of national consciousness on the lines of the Romantic spirit's pursuit of purity and origins, but as a renewal of contemporary classical language, as in the literary work of Guimarães Rosa. The study looks at the way in which the crisis of centrality characteristic of post-modernism and the question of hybridism and autonomization of elements of popular culture, represented by the rabeca, were posed musically in the work of José Eduardo Gramani, and how his interest in rabecas also derived from his innovative focus on teaching rhythm while reflecting the changes in musical performance practices that occurred in the late 20th century. / Doutorado / Praticas Interpretativas / Doutor em Música

Desta forma é apresentado um estudo histórico detalhado do desenvolvimento das cosmologias relativísticas no período compreendido entre 1917 e 1930, começando com o próprio Albert Einstein que, em 1917, propôs o primeiro modelo desta natureza, e encerrando a análise com Sir Arthur Eddington em 1930, cujo modelo, "Lemaître-Eddington", engloba os avanços da época. A partir do modelo de Lemaître-Eddington estudamos o papel fundamental que Eddington atribui à constante cosmológica, é neste item que suas concepções epistemológicas ficam mais evidenciadas, embora elas estejam presentes desde seus primeiros trabalhos. Discutimos também sua argumentação para calcular as constantes da natureza por métodos puramente teóricos. Acompanhamos o desenvolvimento do formalismo matricial que Eddington apresenta para escrever a equação de Dirac para o elétron e, a partir desta nova notação, descrevemos os argumentos utilizados por Eddington para encontrar o valor da constante de estrutura fina, a razão entre a massa do próton e do elétron, a razão entre a força elétrica e a força gravitacional entre um próton e um elétron, a razão entre um comprimento de tipo atômico e o raio de curvatura natural do espaço. Enfim, este estudo analisa as fases do trabalho científico de Eddington estabelecendo uma ponte entre seu trabalho cosmológico e seu trabalho epistemológico / Abstract:The present dissertation introduce the basic ideas of the beginning of the general theory of relativity and its later application on the construction of relativistic cosmological models. So we present here a detailed historical study of the development of the relativistic cosmologies in the period between 1917 and 1930, starting with Albert Einstein who, in 1917, proposed the first model of this kind, and finishing the analysis with Sir Arthur Eddington in 1930, whose model, "Lemaître-Eddington", incorporate the progresses of that time. From the model of "Lemaître-Eddington" we study the basic rule Eddington gives to the cosmological constant. It is in this topic his epistemological concepts become more evident, even though it is present since his ½rst works. We also discuss Eddington's argumentation to calculate the constants of the nature by pure theoretical methods. We follow the development of the matrix formalism that Eddington presents to write the Dirac equation for the electron and from this new notation we describe the logic used by Eddington to find the value of fine structure constant, the rate between the proton and electron mass, the rate between the electrical and gravitational force between a proton and an electron, the rate between an atomic length and the natural spacial curvature radius. So, this essay analyzes the diÿerent periods of Eddington's scientific work establishing one bridge between his cosmological work and his epistemological work / Mestrado / Física / Mestre em Física

Criada em Paris durante o período do pintor como bolsista do Governo Brasileiro, a obra, um nu feminino adolescente, apresenta uma trajetória interessante. Sua história se inicia com honras oficiais e quase noventa anos depois, chega a ser exposta entre obras de gabinete. Este estudo procura também demonstrar o pioneirismo dessa pintura quanto ao seu tema específico, e para tanto, faz um estudo iconográfico de temas semelhantes na arte ocidental e especificamente, na brasileira. Para uma maior compreensão do significado que obra e autor alcançam, é feita uma revisão biográfica do artista, e montada uma cronologia detalhada e documentada do mesmo / Abstract: The study's subject of this dissertation is Eliseo d' Angelo Visconti's NO VERÃO, and it intends to recover its history and critic fortune. Painted in Paris during the period of Visconti as Brazilian's Govemment exhibitioner, the artistry, a feminine adolescent nude, had an interesting course. Its history had begun with official honors and almost ninety years later was exposed as a cabinet art. This study also wants to demonstrate how pioneer this painting was in its specific theme, and therefore it makes an iconographic study of similar themes in the western art and specifica1lyin Brazilian art. In order to enable a wider comprehension of the significance reached by Visconti and his painting, a revision of his biography and a detailed documental chronology were made in this research / Mestrado / Historia da Arte / Mestre em História

Nesta pesquisa, o corpus foi selecionado tendo-se como foco canções cujos títulos são nomes de mulher. Acreditamos que nas seis canções buarqueanas examinadas – circunscritas à temática do feminino – estão timbradas estratégias e manobras linguísticas que apontam para um discurso mais amplo de luta contra a censura no período de 60 a 70. Por isso, propomos, nesta pesquisa, refletir sobre as canções de Chico Buarque, em dimensão micro e macroestrutural, com o objetivo de descortinar os imaginários sociodiscursivos projetados a partir de imagens do feminino em direção a imagens da nação brasileira. Nesta investigação, o corpus foi submetido a uma radiografia metodológica em que foram considerados os aspectos contextuais e formais das canções, o processo de discursivização da língua, e a forma de organizar a encenação narrativa. / This paper aims to catch, based on the assumptions of Semiolinguistics Discourse Theory developed by Patrick Charaudeau, different social-discursive imaginary in six song lyrics produced by Chico Buarque between the 1960s and 1970s. In this research, the corpus was selected with focus themselves as songs whose titles are women's names. We believe that in the six examined buarqueanas songs - circumscribed to the feminine theme - are stamped strategies and linguistic maneuvers that link to a broader discourse of struggle against censorship in the period from 60s to 70s. Therefore, we propose in this research reflect on the songs by Chico Buarque, in micro and macro-structural dimension, in order to uncover the social-discursive imaginary designed from female images toward images of the Brazilian nation. In this investigation, what was considered in the corpus was the songs contextual and formal aspects, the language discursivization process, and the narrative scenario organization.

This thesis analyses the significance of socio-historical conceptions of money in relation to the development of American literary modernism from 1896 to 1944. Taking as its starting point Jean-Joseph Goux's contention that there was a correlation between the end of gold-backed money in France and the birth of French modernist literature, this study considers how far this claim is tenable in the American case. In 1896, the key debate surrounding the presidential election was over whether money should be backed by gold or silver specie, which became a major public issue. Faith in the gold standard was challenged, raising the possibility that the source of monetary value was negotiable. Subsequent policy changes, financial panics, the Depression and the World Wars all affected public conceptions of money, until the Bretton Woods Agreement instituted an international gold standard supported by the gold-backed U.S. dollar in 1944, effectively re-establishing a firm relationship between gold and money. Since the 1990s, New Economic Criticism has sought to understand the ways in which money and literature converge throughout history. Although several studies of money and American literary realism have been undertaken, the relationship between money and American literary modernism specifically has largely been overlooked in scholarship. Analysing the works of Robert Herrick, Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald and John Dos Passos, this thesis contends that a certain strand of American modernism developed as a series of reflections upon the relationship between money, value and realistic representation, in which the limitations of realism are exposed. Calling for a re-historicisation of the relationship between money and literature, this study argues that particular socio-historical moments in the story of American money emphasised the fluidity of money, sending social conceptions of value into flux in a society in which money functioned as the general equivalent by which all values were measured. These moments when accepted face values were called into question offered American writers the language and structure by which to consider and challenge the limitations of existing literary forms by comparing money with literature. Both paper money and literature, forms of representation which function via the inscription of words upon paper, contain an inherent duality; they have both a material value, in terms of their composition from paper and ink, and a deeper capacity to represent a certain value in the society in which they circulate. Modernism is concerned with such a duality, emphasising the materiality of the text and exposing the text's status as a representation that can never equal the reality that it represents. The authors discussed here confronted the discrepancy between written language as a reflection of the real world and words as material constructs in themselves through the metaphor of money, manifesting in both textual theme and structure, where the boundaries of realist representation are broken down via the use of unconventional forms. Utilising the method of close textual analysis and situating the texts examined within the wider socio-historical contexts of which they were born, the thesis focuses upon four different moments in the story of U.S. money and literature. This historically contingent approach facilitates the argument that these literary texts function as sites at which to examine and come to terms with contemporaneous social issues, helping to broaden both the purpose and structure of American literature in the early-twentieth century.

Magister Artium - MA / The rich corpus of postcolonial scholarly engagement on indigenous intermediaries, interpreters, clerks and assistants has a made a strong argument for the active participation of African agents in social scientific knowledge production on Africa. This literature has highlighted the complex and negotiated nature of fieldwork in African anthropology. While this literature has begun to deepen our understanding of the knowledge work of anthropologists and their research assistants, it has not adequately explored the relationship between anthropologists and informants in what one scholar has recently called ‘a triangulation of relationships’ between the anthropologist, the assistant and the informant. This research project proposes to explore these relationships in a detailed case study: that of the British anthropologist Godfrey Wilson (1908–1944), his interpreter Zachariah Mawere, and three primary informants, during three years of pioneering research into the effects of migrant labour at Broken Hill, Northern Rhodesia (Zambia) between 1938 and 1941. Using a close textual reading and detailed analysis of Wilsons Bemba and English fieldnotes held in the Godfrey and Monica Wilson collection at the University of Cape Town’s African Studies Library, the study will apply a micro-historical and biographical approach. It will seek to reconstruct the biographies and anthropological contributions of one interpreter and three central Bemba informants in order to explore the micro-politics of knowledge production in African anthropology.
