Poesia romântica brasileira revisitada /

Pereira, Danglei de Castro. January 2006 (has links)
Orientador: Susanna Busato / Banca: Maria Heloísa M. Dias / Banca: Lúcia Granja / Banca: Cilaine Alves / Banca: Jaime Guinzburg / Resumo: Concordando com Luiza Lobo em que o "estudo minucioso do emprego de fontes e temas predominantes no Romantismo Brasileiro talvez nos leve posteriormente a encontrar uma Gestalt de uma contra-ideologia no seio de escritores românticos marginalizados e esquecidos pela história da literatura romântica oficial"(1986, p.24), pretende-se, nessa pesquisa, fornecer evidências de que essa contra-ideologia pode ser encontrada não só em autores marginais, como também nos chamados "medalhões" do romantismo brasileiro. Para tanto, partiremos do pressuposto de que no Brasil, assim como na Europa, o Romantismo, sendo tão heterogêneo, operou a mobilização da tradição que o precedeu, levando tradição e modernidade a coexistirem no movimento romântico. Selecionamos como universo de pesquisa a obra do poeta maranhense Joaquim de Sousândrade, além de poemas de autores como Álvares de Azevedo, Gonçalves Dias, Tobias Barreto, Fagundes Varela, Castro Alves, entre outros. Nosso intuito é discutir a organização racional do ímpeto emotivo presente no cerne das manifestações poéticas do romantismo no Brasil, apontando para a presença de traços titânicos no romantismo brasileiro. Para dar conta desses objetivos, relacionamos o corpus selecionado ao conceito de ironia romântica defendido pelo Grupo Romântico de Iena, principalmente pelas idéias de Friedrich Schlegel (1994) e Novalis (1988), bem como alguns apontamentos críticos dispersos ao longo das produções românticas nacionais, sobretudo o conceito de binomia defendido por Álvares de Azevedo. O corpus selecionado será discutido à luz das teorias de apoio para se compreender a heterogeneidade do movimento romântico brasileiro, apontando, nesse percurso, para a modernidade do movimento. / Abstract: Agreeing with Luiza Lobo when she says that the" detailed study of the use of predominant wellsprings and subjects in Brazilian Romantism maybe take us to find subsequently a Gestalt of an against-ideology in the midst of romantic marginalized writers who were forgotten by the history of the official romantic literature "(1986, p.24), we intend to supply in this research the evidences that this against-ideology can be found not only in marginal but even among the "toff" authors of Brazilian Romanism. Therefore we will start with the presupposition that in Brazil, as well as in Europe, Romantism - since it's so heterogeneous - accomplished the mobilization of the tradition that preceded it, making tradition and modernity coexist in the Romantic Movement. We selected as corpus of this research the work of Joaquim de Sousândrade, a poetry from Maranhão. Add to that, we chose poems from Álvares de Azevedo, Gonçalves Dias, Tobias Barreto, Fagundes Varela, Castro Alves, among others. Our purpose is to discuss the rational organization of the emotional impulse that appears in the heartwood of the poetic manifestations of the romantics in Brazil, showing the presence of titanesque lines in Brazilian Romanism. In order to account for those objectives, we related the selected corpus to the concept of romantic irony defended by the Romantic Group of Iena, mainly for Friedrich Schlegel's (1994) and Novalis's ideas (1988), as well as some critical notes that are dispersed in national romantic productions, mainly the concept of binomia stood up by Álvares de Azevedo. The selected corpus will be discussed by the notion of some support theories in order to understand the heterogeneity of the Brazilian Romantic Movement, pointing, in that course, to the modernity of the movement. / Doutor

The organic metaphor of the digesting mind from English romanticism to American modernism: a cognitivist approach

Guendel, Karen E. 09 November 2015 (has links)
Recent scholarship demonstrates that the metaphor of taste, which represents aesthetic discernment as gustatory sensation, foregrounds ideologically laden questions of individual and cultural identity across a wide swath of literary history. But critics have yet to discover that taste is but one component of a much broader network of metaphors that figure the mind as a human body that eats and digests the world of objects and ideas. Using two approaches to metaphor from cognitive science, Lakoff and Johnson’s Conceptual Metaphor Theory and Fauconnier and Turner’s theory of "conceptual blending," I relate metaphors like reading-is-eating, ideas-are-food, and contemplation-is-digestion within a metaphor system that I call "the digesting mind." Applying this insight to organic aesthetics, I argue that poets expand organicism's metaphorical basis beyond the familiar poem-as-plant by introducing a mind that consumes plantlike poems. Coleridge, Wordsworth, Emerson, Whitman, and William Carlos Williams link writers and readers in an ideational economy figured as nutritional exchange. As each poet negotiates questions of creativity and literary influence, his biological, philosophical, political, and aesthetic beliefs converge in metaphors of the digesting mind. After introducing my approach in chapter one, I examine the digesting mind's importance in the evolution of organic aesthetics from English romanticism to American modernism. In chapter two, the digesting mind destabilizes Coleridge's influential distinction between mechanism and organicism by revealing, in Biographia Literaria, his anxiety that a diet of mechanistic literature will reduce the organic mind to a machine. Chapter three reads Wordsworth's Prelude in similar terms, as an allegory representing mental development as nutritional growth, in which the imagination requires an organic diet of poetry and nature. In chapter four, Whitman’s Leaves of Grass Americanizes the digesting mind with an Emersonian aesthetic that locates power in the poet’s present transformation of the literary past into future mental nourishment. In chapter five, Williams adapts Emerson's digesting mind with a pragmatic aesthetics of experience. By representing his Objectivist poems as fruit, as in "This is Just to Say," Williams relocates the organic ideals of vitality and unity from the poem, as aesthetic object, to the audience's felt experience of reading-as-eating. / 2017-11-04T00:00:00Z

Eighteenth-Century Rhetorical Figures in British Romantic Poetry: A Study of the Poetry of Coleridge, Wordsworth Byron, Shelley, and Keats

Kennelly, Laura B. 08 1900 (has links)
Rhetoric, seen either as the art of persuasion or as the art of figurative expression, has been largely neglected as an approach to the poetry of the Romantics. The most important reason for this seems to be the rejection of rhetoric by the Romantics themselves. As a result of negative comments about rhetoric by Coleridge, Wordsworth, Shelley, and Keats, scholars seeking clues about the Romantics' literary principles in their critical writings have agreed that eighteenth-century rhetoric was either abandoned or substantially altered by early nineteenth century poets. The eighteenth-century belief that figures possess a unique power of communicating an author's passions and emotions continued to be transmitted as a viable literary tradition in the nineteenth century. Poetry was thought to have special privilege in the employment of rhetorical devices. In practice, if not in theory, early nineteenth-century poets did not abandon the use of such devices in their creations. An analysis of the role of rhetorical figures in the works of Coleridge, Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley, and Keats demonstrates that it is a mistake to envision the poetry of the Romantic movement as a spontaneous outgrowth of an abrupt shift in poetic taste, a shift which demanded the omission of classical poetic devices. Often the Romantic poets were more nearly in accord with the strictures of rhetoricians such as Blackwall or Ward than many of the Augustan poets had been.

Political Atheism vs. The Divine Right of Kings: Understanding 'The Fairy of the Lake' (1801)

Post, Andy 30 April 2014 (has links)
In 'Political Atheism vs. The Divine Right of Kings,' I build on Thompson and Scrivener’s work analysing John Thelwall’s play 'The Fairy of the Lake' as a political allegory, arguing all religious symbolism in 'FL' to advance the traditionally Revolutionary thesis that “the King is not a God.” My first chapter contextualises Thelwall’s revival of 17th century radicalism during the French Revolution and its failure. My second chapter examines how Thelwall’s use of fire as a symbol discrediting the Saxons’ pagan notion of divine monarchy, also emphasises the idolatrous apotheosis of King Arthur. My third chapter deconstructs the Fairy of the Lake’s water and characterisation, and concludes her sole purpose to be to justify a Revolution beyond moral reproach. My fourth chapter traces how beer satirises Communion wine, among both pagans and Christians, in order to undermine any religion that could reinforce either divinity or the Divine Right of Kings. / A close reading of an all-but-forgotten Arthurian play as an allegory against the Divine Right of Kings.
