Repercussões do macabro no romantismo brasileiro / Repercussions of the macabre imaginary in the brazilian romanticism

Juliana Luiza de Melo Schmitt 05 September 2014 (has links)
A tese aborda o termo macabro desde suas origens na Baixa Idade Média, partindo dessa perspectiva histórica para interrogar as repercussões da literatura e da iconografia que lhe correspondem, sobretudo no século XIX. Neste, privilegia-se em particular o Romantismo, que se alimenta do imaginário medieval para criar uma estética em grande parte voltada a uma sensibilidade da morte. Em paralelo à análise de certas manifestações artísticas europeias, investiga-se a presença do macabro e suas configurações específicas em exemplares da poesia e da prosa do Brasil oitocentista. O poema A orgia dos duendes, de Bernardo Guimarães, tem lugar especial nessa investigação, por se revelar a mais completa e singular fantasia literária de dança macabra no país. / This thesis, by historicizing the term macabre from its origins in the Late Middle Ages, seeks to understand the repercussions of both literature and iconography involving the macabre during the 19th Century, a time when the medieval imaginary was revived through Romanticism. The manifestations of this romantic sensibility as respects to death in the 19th Century in Brazil are also investigated, in an attempt to analyze its influences in Brazilian poetry and prose. The poem A orgia dos duendes, by Bernardo Guimarães, is given special attention in this investigation, as it is deemed the most significant example of the Danse Macabre in Brazil.

Les représentations de la mort dans la création artistique actuelle : histoire, contextualisation, comparaisons / The representations of death in present artistic creation : history, contextualisation, comparison

Heyd, Marie 10 April 2015 (has links)
Alors que les individus dans la société contemporaine sont unis non par une propriété mais par un devoir et par une dette, par un manque, par une limite prenant la forme d’une charge pour celui qui en est affecté, la postmodernité rend à la mort et à l’absence toute sa densité. À travers la répétition, entre jubilation et désespérance, les artistes figurent la temporalité de l’épreuve par une écriture qui travaille l’instant. Ils racontent ces évènements infimes qui sont les plus fragiles, les plus précaires, ayant pourtant une forte efficacité. Il s’agira ici d’étudier les nouvelles postures devant l’événement historique, quand l’artiste se tient au plus singulier. / While individuals in contemporary society are united not by property but by a duty and a debt, a lack, by a limit taking the shape of a responsibility for the one who is affected, postmodernism returns to death and absence all its density. Through repetition, between jubilation and despair, the artist represents the temporality of the event. His writing works the moment. He tells these tiny events that are the most fragile, the most precarious, having nevertheless a strong efficiency. This thesis will try to study the new postures in front of the historic event, when the artist stands in the most singular.

Revenants from the Church to literature

Livermore, Christian January 2016 (has links)
Factual accounts of revenants – the risen dead – seized the medieval imagination in the early eleventh century, and were recorded by serious historians and ecclesiastics as true. They then began to appear in secular imaginative literature and art, growing progressively more elaborate and frightening throughout the Middle Ages whilst retaining many of the religious overtones expressed overtly in the ecclesiastic tales. By the early modern and modern period, the tales were removed from any overt religious context and were told as purely imaginative literature. The academic half of this thesis explores the influence on the tales of the Christian doctrine of resurrection and the cult of the body of Christ and of the saints, then traces the migration of those tales into imaginative literature from the Middle Ages to the present. It identifies key motifs from the medieval chronicles and imaginative literature that continue to appear in modern stories, and explores the extent to which Christian eschatology altered perceptions of the dead and why, in an increasingly secular context, fascination with such tales continued into modern literature, what part fear of death played throughout this period, and how that fear was expressed, first in an ecclesiastical context, then in imaginative literature through horror stories. The creative half of my thesis is a literary fiction novel updating a medieval revenant tale, the Legend of the Three Living and the Three Dead, to twenty-first century New England.

Den dödlige narren : En studie av satir och humor i dödsdansen av Hans Holbein den yngre / The deadly jester : A study of satire and humor in Hans Holbein the younger's dance of death

Karadh, Sofie January 2023 (has links)
Hans Holbein's Dance of Death has fascinated researchers for centuries, and in the shape of the book Les Simulachres et historiées de la mort, published in 1538, it was going to change the perception of the dance of death theme for a long time ahead. What most researchers point out about Holbein's pictures is its underlying sense of satire or irony – but is typically glossed over as a matter of fact. The aim of this study is to explore what makes satire and humor apparent in Holbein's dance of death. The study mainly focuses on four separate images from Holbein's series, that represent different social standings and professions to compare and study the difference in satire depending on this factor. By using Panofsky's iconographic method, Kemp's reception theory and Bachtin's theory about the carnivalesque and the grotesque, the study shows that Holbein was inspired by the earlier traditions of the Dance of Death theme but made certain new changes that were related to renaissance culture and ideas. These factors in combination with the ideas of the grotesque turned the frightful Death into something more than just a sudden harbinger of death – it was also part of carnival culture and laughter.
