Entre o livro e o lugar / Between the book and the place

Patricia Andrea Soto Osses 28 April 2015 (has links)
Refletindo sobre a idéia do espaço como elemento que ativa experiências e gera visualidades, este projeto caminha rumo à especificidade do lugar e adiciona um terceiro elemento, a ficção, ao perguntar: pode uma obra literária relativa ao lugar transformar-se em poética visual? O desenvolvimento desta questão propiciará reflexões na interface literatura, cinema, e artes visuais, além do entendimento e da experiência do espaço proposto, onde lugar físico e lugar ficcional sejam igualmente princípios ativadores do processo de criação de trabalhos audiovisuais. No aprofundamento do universo de autores como Jorge Luis Borges(1899-1986) e Marguerite Duras(1914-1996), esta pesquisa se dirige, através de uma práxis reflexiva, a um sentido inverso do encontrado no universo literário: na procura dos lugares reais a partir dos ficcionais, na constatação de uma memória construída a partir de um repertório relacionado a lugar, e nas possibilidades de transposição, transformação e permeabilidade dos discursos literário e visual. / Reflecting on the idea of space as an element that activates experiences and generates visuality, this project moves towards specificity of place and adds a third element, fiction, in order to ask: can a literary work about place turn into visual poetic? The development of this issue will provide reflections on literature, film and visual arts interface, beyond understanding and experience of the proposed space, where physical and fictional place activates, at the same time, the creation of audiovisual work. In deepening of the universe of authors such as Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) and Marguerite Duras (1914-1996), this research is directed through a reflective practice, to the reverse of that found in the literary universe: in search of the real places that comes from fictional, on finding a memory constructed from a repertoire connected to the idea of place, and on the possibilities of transposition, processing and permeability of visual and literary speech .

The starting point for the study was the finding that sociogeographic changes arising from the conservative modemization of capital in Goiás and from the new employment relationships in the course of metropolization of Goiânia produced inroads into the manner of urban existence. We are faced with a subject deeply marked by shuffling of signs in urban symbolic melting pot. Similarly, this incidence on the processes of symbolic production promoted the emergence of a contemporary novelistic narrative at the new metropolis, since the 198015. Two novels by authors from the state of Goiás, A centopeia de neon e Os cordeiros do abismo, provided support for Me thesis that, in tum, relies on the assumption that in the metropolization of Goiânia the novelistic creation fails to address Me subject of hegemonic rural bases — man and life countryside. The focos of the plot switches to the new contours of existence: an urban subject, fragmented, adherent to the emotion trade, to the consumerism, the cynical reason and desdation. The questioning of the theme is anchored on two fronts: the first asks about the connection between Geography and Literature with an approach able to maintain the vitality and specificity of each of the fields of knowledge. The question is: how to proceed to a reading of the space by the bias of literature without it being reduced to the role illustrative or representative of the geographic reality? The other strand questions about subjects captured by the antenna of the Brazilian produced novel, created or set in Goiás: how their fictional repertoires, invested in characters of the novels analyzed, intertwine the repertoires of the inhabitants of the metropolis? Different development strategies of the theme resulted in a plural approach and in a singular methodological course. The rapprochement between Geography and Literature, in the perspective to establish a dialogic process with the novel, led to a fruitful debate involving literary theory, where it was found a clear presence of lived space (geographical space) as a basic element in the origin of the novelistic genre. Coupled with the discussion of cartographic language in Geography, this dialog has led to the creation of maps of the novels, from which we conducted analyzes geographical and literary. The mappings put into operation different language systems. The transit between geographical thought and literary theory also resulted in the emergence of the term in the tifle of the thesis: "Novelcityness" (Romancidade). A junction of two categories of research, the novelistic genre and the city, with an overflow of meaning which refers to an immanent relationship between subject, city and romance. Geography and Literature in a single word. / A presente pesquisa foi desenvolvida no âmbito do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geografia do Instituto de Estudos Socioambientais da UFG, sob orientação do professor Eguimar Felído Chaveiro, para a qual adotamos como tema: leituras de sujeito e existência em romances publicados no contexto da metropolização de Goiânia. O ponto de partida para o estudo foi a constatação de que as alterações socioespaciais decorrentes da modernização conservadora do capital em Goiás e das novas relações de trabalho no percurso de metropolização de Goiânia produziram incursões no modo urbano de existir. Deparamo-nos com um sujeito profundamente marcado pelo embaralhamento de signos no caldeirão simbólico urbano. Da mesma forma, essa incidência nos processos da produção simbólica promoveu o surgimento de uma narrativa romanesca contemporânea na nova metrópole, a partir dos anos 1980. Dois romances de autores goianos, A centopeia de neon e Os cordeiros do abismo, deram suporte para a tese que, por sua vez, se apóia no pressuposto de que na metropolização de Goiânia a criação romanesca deixa de abordar hegemonicamente o sujeito de bases rurais - o homem e a vida no campo. O foco do enredo passa para os novos contornos da existência: um sujeito urbano, fragmentado, aderente ao comércio das emoções, ao consumismo, à razão cínica e ao desolamento. A problematização do tema se ancorou em duas vertentes: a primeira indaga sobre a aproximação entre Geografia e Literatura com uma abordagem capaz de manter a vitalidade e especificidade de cada um dos campos de saber. A pergunta é: como proceder a uma leitura do espaço pelo viés da literatura sem que esta seja reduzida à função ilustrativa ou representativa da realidade geográfica? A outra vertente questiona sobre sujeitos captados pela antena do romance brasileiro produzido, criado ou ambientado em Goiás: como os seus repertórios fictícios investidos nas personagens dos romances analisados, se entrelaçam aos repertórios dos habitantes da metrópole? Diferentes estratégias de desenvolvimento da temática redundaram em uma abordagem plural e num percurso metodológico singular. A aproximação entre Geografia e Literatura, na perspectiva de estabelecer um processo dialógico com o romance levou a um profícuo debate envolvendo a teoria literária, de onde se constatou a presença inequívoca do espaço vivido (espaço geográfico) como elemento basilar na origem do gênero romanesco. Aliado ao debate da linguagem cartográfica na Geografia, esse diálogo levou à criação de cartografias dos romances e, a partir das quais, realizamos as análises geográfico-literárias. As cartografias puseram em funcionamento diferentes sistemas de linguagem. O trânsito entre o pensamento geográfico e a teoria literária resultou, também, no surgimento do vocábulo que intitula a tese: Romancidade. Uma junção de duas categorias da pesquisa, romance e cidade, com um transbordamento de sentido que remete para uma relação imanente entre sujeito, cidade e romance. Geografia e Literatura numa mesma palavra.

Миф и образ Венеции в романе Иэна Макьюэна «Утешение странников» : магистерская диссертация / The Myth And The Image Of Venice In The Novel By Ian Mcewan, “Comfort Of The Strangers”

Калистратова, М. А., Kalistratova, M. A. January 2016 (has links)
The dissertation is devoted to the study of myth and image of Venice in the novel by Ian McEwan, “Comfort of the Strangers.” The paper provides a classification of cities in the realm of semiotic studies and “locates” Venice in the existing classifications. Additionally, the work traces the evolution of the image of Venice in British literature. The specificity of the original image depicted in the novel by Ian McEwan is analyzed by comparing Venice in “Comfort of the Strangers” to one of the first literary texts of Venice – the comedy “The Merchant of Venice” and the tragedy “Othello” by William Shakespeare. The given study of the image opens up prospects for its further consideration as part of contemporary literary tradition in general, and British literature in particular, as well as to further exploration of Ian McEwan’s oeuvre. / Диссертация посвящена исследованию мифа и образа Венеции в романе Иэна Макьюэна «Утешение странников». В работе приводится классификация городов в рамках семиотических учений и указывается место Венеции в существующих классификациях. Помимо этого, в работе прослеживается эволюция образа Венеции в британской литературе. Специфика образа Венеции в романе Иэна Макьюэна анализируется путем сравнения Венеции в «Утешении странников» с одними из первых художественных текстов о Венеции, – комедии «Венецианский купец» и трагедии «Отелло» Уильяма Шекспира. Исследование образа Венеции открывает перспективы для дальнейшего его изучения в рамках современной литературы вообще и британской литературы в частности, а также для дальнейшего изучения творчества Иэна Макьюэна.

Prostor jako významotvorný činitel v literatuře pro děti a mládež / Space as a Meaning-Making Factor in Children's and Young Adult Literature

Stejskalová, Tereza January 2015 (has links)
This master's thesis, titled "Space as a Meaning-Making Factor in Children's and Young Adult Literature", concentrates on building and projection of literary space in the literature specifically intended for children and young adults. It has literary analytical and literary interpretive character and is based on theoretical works on the topic of literary space. This thesis is divided into two parts. The first part covers the theoretical conception of literary space. The second part consists of examinations of literary works, first of the world's classics of children's and young adult literature (The Brothers Lionheart by Astrid Lindgren, The Neverending Story by Michael Ende, Through a Glass, Darkly by Jostein Gaarder) and then of the works of contemporary Czech children's and young adult literature Lenka a Nelka neboli AHA ('Lenka and Nelka or AHA') by Daniela Fischer, Spící město, Spící spravedlnost a Spící tajemství ('Sleeping City', 'Sleeping Justice', and 'Sleeping Secret') by Martin Vopěnka and Soví zpěv ('Owl's Song') by Iva Procházková. In the theoretical part, the conception of literary space is defined from the perspective of literary topology. The definition of this concept is based on literary studies on the topic of literary topology, mainly on the essays Místa s Tajemstvím ('Places...

"EU FALO, EU MINTO": A EXPERIÊNCIA NO ESPAÇO LITERÁRIO EM O FALSO MENTIROSO, DE SILVIANO SANTIAGO

No. of bitstreams: 1 Mayara Bueno.pdf: 1185832 bytes, checksum: 2efb8dc31dc01361966dbc94b12805f2 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-10-04 / This study aims the reading of the novel O falso mentiroso: memórias, by Silviano Santiago, as literary space, according to Maurice Blanchot‘s concept, where literary experiences enable an action of dilution of its own limits, such as reality and fiction, in a constant self-questioning exercise. The axis of Silviano Santiago‘s critical thought axis is the ―space-in-between" concept, based on the anthropophagic ritual, which deconstructs binary speeches and the concept of origin. Essential to us understand the literary relations and how this studied novel sets dialogs between fiction and the author‘s theory, therefore, between the fictitious writer and the reviewer. Connected to discussions of authors such as Walter Benjamin, Michael Foucault e Giorgio Agamben, we conceive Silviano Santiago‘s novel literary space as a place of deconstruction, where statutes are rated under suspicion and where the literature is also, theory. / Este trabalho propõe a leitura do romance O falso mentiroso: memórias, de Silviano Santiago, como espaço literário, apropriando-se do termo de Maurice Blanchot, onde experiências literárias possibilitam um processo de diluição dos seus próprios limites, como realidade e ficção, em um exercício de autoquestionamento constante. O eixo do pensamento crítico de Silviano Santiago é o conceito de ―entre-lugar‖ que, baseado no ritual antropofágico, descontrói discursos binários e o conceito de origem. Sua compreensão torna-se essencial para entendermos as relações literárias e como o romance aqui estudado estabelece diálogos entre a ficção e a teoria do autor, logo, entre o ficcionista e o crítico. Articuladas às discussões de autores como Walter Benjamin, Michael Foucault e Giorgio Agamben, pensamos o espaço literário do romance de Silviano Santiago como um lugar de desconstrução, onde estatutos são colocados sob suspeita e onde a literatura é, também, teoria.

Figures de l'espace et de la frontière dans la fiction de Rudyard Kipling / Literary Borderlines and the Spatial Imagination in Rudyard Kipling’s Fiction

Raimbault, Elodie 20 November 2009 (has links)
Voyageur durant toute sa vie, connaisseur de l’Inde, des États-Unis, de l’Afrique du Sud et du Sussex, défenseur de l’Empire britannique quand sa stabilité territoriale est menacée, Rudyard Kipling possède une expérience de l’espace mondial directe et physique qu’on retrouve problématisée sur les plans thématique, narratif et stylistique dans sa fiction. La notion de frontière produit à tous niveaux des relations de différentiation et d’opposition mais aussi de contact et d’échanges : le voyage se fait conquête, aventure ou vagabondage, le rapport à l’espace est politique ou poétique. L’espace impérial est nécessairement délimité et Kipling conçoit un Empire agent fédérateur d’une mosaïque de nations. Stylistiquement, la phrase de Kipling parvient de même à fédérer des langues et registres variés sans nuire à l’unité textuelle et la narration se fonde sur l’articulation entre les éléments individuels et l’ensemble. L’instance narrative crée des lignes de convergence qui relient entre eux les récits en créant des réseaux d’œuvre à œuvre, aboutissant à la construction partielle d’un monde cohérent et à une possibilité d’ouverture dans cet espace balisé. L’économie interne des œuvres les révèle en tant qu’objets composites et unifiés, faisant jouer poèmes et illustrations au sein de recueils de nouvelles, intrigue principale et micro récits dans les romans. Le texte est figuration à part entière lorsqu’il inclut une carte annotée et qu’il crée un espace typographique signifiant et moderne. Mettant en regard l’espace représentant et l’espace représenté, l’agencement du texte et celui du monde narratif qu’il peint, l’espace littéraire kiplingien fonctionne de façon dynamique. / Rudyard Kipling was a traveller all his life and a champion of the British Empire at the time when its territorial stability was put at risk; he knew India, the U.S.A., South Africa and Sussex intimately. His direct and physical experience of the globe frames the thematic, narrative and stylistic characteristics of his novels and short story collections. Through the notion of borderline, relationships of differentiation, opposition, contact and exchange are built up thematically, in the narrative and in the style: the traveller is represented as a conqueror, an adventurer or a wanderer and global space is apprehended either politically or poetically. Imperial space is necessarily delineated and Kipling conceives of an Empire federating a mosaic of nations. Likewise, Kipling’s sentences stylistically patch up diverse languages, dialects and registers without endangering their textual unity and his narration hinges on the relation between separate elements and the whole text. The narrative authority creates converging lines between stories and networks appear between books, building up a coherent fictional world which suggests the possibility of an opening in this highly demarcated space. In their internal organisation, the books are at once composite and unified, the main narrative interacting with poems and illustrations in the short story collections and with micro narratives in the novels. Text becomes truly figurative in the annotated maps and when the typographical space is modern and significant. Kipling’s literary space dynamically confronts physical territories and a linguistic representative space, the textual organisation and the narrative world it depicts.

O olho, a mão e o caleidoscópio: espaço(s) e violência em contos de Teolinda Gersão

Souto, Rinah de Araújo 25 March 2014 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2015-05-14T12:39:59Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 1175806 bytes, checksum: 57ae7b385bb8bbdf21b4b0e34d85b84e (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014-03-25 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This dissertation aimed at analyzing four short stories from the book A mulher que prendeu a chuva e outras histórias, by the Portuguese writer Teolinda Gersão. Those are: Encontro no S-Bahn , A mulher que prendeu a chuva , A ponte na Califórnia and Um casaco de raposa vermelha . For this, we relied on the theoretical proposal by Wolfgang Iser, in particular literary anthropology in the category of violence, according to the assumptions of René Girard, and by the method titled topoanalysis, we want to identify possible answers to the following questions: To what extent when literature is interlocking the real with fiction and imaginary can it give us clues to rethink how anthropos - as a perceptive subject - reacts before a space that is unknown? And what about borderline spaces? In which way does the human being respond to the direct conflict of his or her desires with alienating processes with other forms of valid knowledge? What are the implications of that? How the violence is presented? We verified that all short stories analyzed presented a prominence of feminine perspective in common, the presence of a scapegoat, and the conflict that generates violence in spaces, when they are urban, intimate, borderlines or "non-places". / O presente trabalho propõe-se a analisar quatro contos integrantes do livro A mulher que prendeu a chuva e outras histórias, da escritora portuguesa Teolinda Gersão, a saber: Encontro no S-Bahn , A mulher que prendeu a chuva , A ponte na Califórnia e Um casaco de raposa vermelha . Para tanto, nos baseamos na proposta teórica de Wolfgang Iser, nomeadamente a antropologia literária; na categoria da violência, segundo os pressupostos de René Girard; e através do método intitulado topoanálise buscamos, ao final, apontar possíveis respostas para as seguintes questões: Até que ponto a literatura ao imbricar o real com o fictício e o imaginário, pode nos dar pistas para (re)pensar como o anthropos - enquanto sujeito perceptivo - reage diante de um espaço que lhe é desconhecido? E em meio a espaços fronteiriços? De que maneira o ser humano responde ao confronto direto com os seus desejos, com processos alienantes, com outras formas de conhecimento válido? Quais as implicações disso? Como a violência se apresenta? Verificamos que todos os contos enfocados apresentam em comum a voz feminina em destaque, a presença do bode expiatório e o confronto que gera violência em meio a espaços, sejam eles urbanos, íntimos, fronteiriços ou não-lugares .

Fantasy - teorie žánru a jeho edukační aspekty / Fantasy - Theory of the Genre and its Educative Aspects

HOKR, Boris January 2010 (has links)
This diploma thesis deals with fantasy literature in both, national and international contexts, as well as with its didactical possessions. Its aim is to prove that this genre has, apart from its history and a recognized place in the domain of literature, a cognitive value to enhance the readers in terms of aesthetics, knowledge, experience and emotions. A second aim of the thesis is to describe the position of fantasy in so-called ``speculative fiction{\crq}q. The first part of the work allows its readers to understand the term ``Fantasy``. It also provides them with history of the genre and its nowadays´ subdivision. In the subsequent chapters the fantasy is presented as a genre able to adapt to fields not necessarily linked to contemporary literature, such as source of knowledge and understanding in lives of young people. A more detailed approach to the Czech form of the genre is also provided with emphasis to common and opposite aspects of it in comparison with the world fantasy (mostly Anglo-American). The didactical potential is underlined in appropriate paragraphs. The 4th and 6thchapters are then fully dedicated to the didactical potential. The last chapter presents results of research work focused on fantasy.

Typické postavy a motivy v díle Šaratčandry Čattopádhjáje / Typical characters and motifs in Sharatchandra Chattopadhyay's fiction

Špicová, Zuzana January 2021 (has links)
(in English): Śaratcandra Caṭṭopādhyāẏ is one of the most beloved Bengali authors, but has so far received only a very limited academic attention. The thesis briefly introduces the author's life and subsequently analyses his work using the terms and methods of contemporary narratology. Its primary goal is to contest traditional critical views of Śaratcandra as an overly emotional author for bored housewives. Śaratcandra intriguingly uses various literary devices (especially his narrators and focalisation) to enhance intimacy between the reader and the characters which finally leads to the reader's greater emotional involvement in the presented events. His usage of types of characters also innovatively combines ancient Indian types, real-life observations and western literary forms. The author juxtaposes characters in order to introduce a critique of social, religious and gender inequality, and to add an emotional argument to Īśvarcandra Vidyāsāgar's intellectual and legal endeavour. It is also possible to interpret Śaratcandra's work and the author himself - in contrast to Rabīndranāth Ṭhākur and Baṅkimcandra Caṭṭopādhyāẏ - as one of the most important modern descendants of the Mahābhārata tradition of Indian literature.
