No. of bitstreams: 1 renatamartinsfogaca.pdf: 4940766 bytes, checksum: 0fc20f440308cef8d7c5a5225c7c16b4 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-06-01 / PROQUALI (UFJF) / A proposta desta dissertação é analisar a estrutura e o estilo da escrita da cronista Nina Horta a partir da primeira publicação no Jornal Folha de São Paulo até a coletânea de suas crônicas publicadas no período de 1987 a 1995 e reunidas no livro Não é sopa: crônicas e receitas de comida, da editora Companhia das Letras. A relação entre a literatura e a gastronomia presente no livro se estrutura a partir da constatação de que se alimentar faz parte do cotidiano das pessoas, e este, por sua vez, é uma forma de alimento para a crônica. Para lograr tal objetivo, será realizado um histórico da crônica, apresentando sua trajetória e sua importância no Brasil e sua ligação com o jornal. Buscar-se-á estabelecer as transformações realizadas na tradicional coluna de culinária por Nina Horta a fim de aproximá-la da crônica. Pretende-se, também, mapear a forma com que a autora relaciona fatos e situações rotineiras a que todo ser humano está sujeito ao resgate e ao registro da memória coletiva. Para a pesquisa, os fundamentos teóricos sobre a crônica serão baseados em Antonio Candido, Jorge de Sá e Joaquim Ferreira dos Santos. Walter Benjamim, Maurice Halbwachs e Pierre Nora serão alguns dos teóricos estudados na busca de uma aproximação da memória coletiva. / This dissertations aims to analyze the structure and writing style of the writer Nina Horta, from her first publication in the newspaper Folha de São Paulo to her book Não é sopa: crônicas e receitas de comida, by the publisher Companhia das Letras. The relationship between literature and gastronomy found in the book is based on the conclusion that feeding is a part of people’s routine – which is, for its part, a source of inspiration for the short stories themselves. In order to achieve such purpose, we will outline a history of the short story, presenting its development and importance in Brazil, as well as its connection to newspapers. We will try to establish the transformations which happened in Nina Horta’s traditional cooking column, so as to bring it closer to the short story genre. We also intend to map the way the author connects usual facts and situations, to which everyone is subject, to the recovery and record of collective memory. For the research, the theoretical foundations about short stories will be based on Antonio Candido, Jorge de Sá and Joaquim Ferreira dos Santos. Walter Benjamim, Maurice Halbwachs and Pierre Nora will be some of the theoreticians studied in order to approach the concept of collective memory.

Au début du XIXe siècle s’amorce, en réponse à l’instabilité du monde, une crise de la représentation. Elle se traduit, dans les milieux romantiques, par une écriture de l’ambiguïté que l’on a coutume de désigner sous le nom de fantastique. En marge des visions grotesques ou dissonantes qui caractérisent de nombreux textes hoffmanniens, les récits de Charles Nodier, Joseph von Eichendorff, mais également, en partie du premier Gautier ou de Tieck, mettent en place un fantastique onirique, tirant sur le merveilleux. Touchant à l’intime et révélant les désirs cachés du sujet, cette modalité du fantastique sera appréhendée, à rebours d’une tradition critique qui privilégie l’étude de l’événement, sous l’angle du personnage. L’analyse comparée d’un corpus synchronique composé de contes et nouvelles de l’époque romantique se propose ainsi de contribuer à une poétique du fantastique et d’éclairer la relation qu’entretiennent les romantismes français et allemands .Ce travail fait tout d’abord ressortir la présence de rôles récurrents et de modalités de construction communes. Le récit est centré sur la relation unissant une figure fantastique et un sujet, autour duquel gravitent deux types, l’un donnant corps à l’interprétation surnaturelle, l’autre la rejetant. Le fantastique ne naît cependant pas uniquement de caractéristiques ontologiques, mais résulte d’une manipulation, qui joue sur l’évolution des interactions entre les personnages et sur les liens qui se tissent entre les différents niveaux narratifs. Cette manipulation sert un discours anthropologique et esthétique, qui révèle des points de convergence entre les romantismes français et allemands, esthétiques notamment, mais aussi des divergences profondes, quant à l’évaluation du rêve et de la folie ou des rapports entre littérature et religion. / At the beginning of the 19th century, the instability of the world lead to a crisis of representation and to the development of what Todorv called the fantastic genre. Unlike Hoffmann's grotesque or discordant visions, Charles Nodier's and Joseph von Eichendorff's stories are characterised by a dreamlike fantastic that is close to the supernatural.This kind of fantastic is connected with the intimate life of the subject and reveals their hidden desires. Contrary to traditional criticism, it will not be analysed through the prism of the event, but through the prism of the characters and their relations. By analysing romantic short stories, we aim to contribute to a general fantastic poetry and to shed a new light on the relations between French and German romanticisms. The first part of the study brings out the presence of typical roles and recurrent modalities of character construction: their names, their physical and psychological traits, their idiosyncraties. The fantastic story focuses on the relationship between a fantastic figure and a subject. Two stereotypes evolve around the latter: a character that defends a supernatural interpretation of the facts and a character that questions their reality. The fantastic effect not only results from ontological characteristics, but also from the interactions between the characters and between the various diegetic levels. The study of these interactions reveals a form of manipulation which serves an anthropological and esthetic aim. This is how, it reveals similarities but also differences between French and German romanticisms concerning the relation between literature and religion or the consideration of dreams or madness.

Brazilian prose writer Lygia Fagundes Telles' fragment collection The Discipline of Love represents a certain diversion from her extensive complex of novels and short stories. The collection contains minor essays, memories, travel notes, dreams and fictions, related by the authorial subject...

[pt] Guimarães Rosa costumava dizer que só se pode falar do sertão por meio do conto ou da lenda. Considerando Grande Sertão: Veredas um grande conto, defendo a importância dessa forma como um ensaio que busca a redescoberta da Terra Nova mediante a fala de um ex-jagunço semiletrado. Se nossa História não foi forte no sentido de uma contribuição filosófica, a geografia, terra dos contos, anuncia o pensar enquanto força cujo gesto fundador se baseia no poder de pactuar com o cotidiano o nascimento da Literatura. / [en] Guimarães Rosa used to say that one can only talks about the “sertão” by means of the tale, or the legend. Considering Grande Sertão: Veredas a big-sized tale, I defend the importance of this form as an essay that seeks for the rediscovery of the New Land, by means of an illiterate, former jagunço’s speech. If our History was not strong in the sense of a philosophical contribution, geography, realm of tales, announces the thinking as a force, whose founding gesture is based on the power to make a pact with the quotidian, giving birth to Literature.

The thesis aims to describe and evaluate the depiction of Indian Muslims in the series of short stories by Nasira Sharma. The writer is one of the Muslim authors who chose to write in Hindi. In her works, Sharma shares in detail but also in discretion her unique insight into the private matters of Muslim families and their coexistence with the Hindu majority on various levels. Rather than focusing on politics, she inspects the human nature and the difficulties the Muslim communities face. As a minority, they live in more challenging conditions compared to the population of purely Muslim countries. Sharma repeatedly draws attention to the root of many of these difficulties, i.e. the voluntary isolation of Islamic communities and their strict observance of traditions. Key words: Muslims, India, Islam, Nasira Sharma, Hindu literature, short story

Seven Short stories Submitted as a Master's Thesis

A prática cotidiana do professor de língua portuguesa, apesar de ele estar ciente da necessidade de intensificar o trabalho com leitura, muitas vezes carece de materiais de pesquisa, tempo e informações mais específicas para o desenvolvimento de propostas de leitura que atendam as demandas dos documentos oficiais de ensino e das matrizes de referência das provas externas. É para suprir parte dessa necessidade que o objetivo geral desta pesquisa se estabelece: indicar possibilidades de trabalhos de leitura do gênero discursivo conto em sala de aula, visando a subsidiar propostas didático-pedagógicas de leitura desse gênero discursivo. O conto é um gênero discursivo sugerido pelos documentos oficiais de ensino para a leitura no Ensino Fundamental e Médio e, como explicam os PCN (BRASIL, 1998), por meio da literatura é possível confrontar linguagens nas práticas sociais e na história, explorar recursos de linguagem, reconhecer valores sociais e humanos. Especificamente, esta pesquisa tem os objetivos: 1) identificar as características e especificidades do gênero conto que devem ou podem ser consideradas nas práticas de leitura em sala de aula; 2) indicar habilidades de leitura que podem ser exploradas no gênero discursivo conto, considerando inclusive as habilidades de leitura sugeridas pela Matriz de Referência do Sistema Nacional de Avaliação da Educação Básica e pelos níveis de proficiência na escala de leitura do PISA ; 3) exemplificar, a partir de um corpus de cinco contos, atividades de leitura desenvolvidas a partir das Matrizes de Referência e da escala de leitura citadas, a partir das potencialidades do gênero discursivo conto. Teoricamente, esta pesquisa se fundamenta em estudos literários sobre o conto; na concepção socioenunciativa da linguagem advinda dos trabalhos do filósofo russo Bakhtin, particularmente nos conceitos de gênero discursivo e dialogismo; na abordagem sociocognitiva de leitura e no trabalho pedagógico com gêneros discursivos proposto por Dolz e Schneuwly. Essa fundamentação teórica forneceu os subsídios necessários para a análise qualitativa dos dados desta pesquisa, que se desenvolveu no âmbito do projeto OBSERVATÓRIO/UNITAU 2011 2014 Competências e habilidades de leitura: da reflexão teórica ao desenvolvimento e aplicação de propostas didático-pedagógicas, financiado pelo Programa Observatório da Educação CAPES/INEP sob n 23038010000201076. O resultado dessa pesquisa é a elaboração de uma sequência didática como sugestão para a leitura do conto que deverá fornecer subsídios para o desenvolvimento de práticas de leitura em sala de aula. A leitura de obras literárias, como é o caso do conto, permite amplas possiblidades do diálogo entre sentidos e conhecimentos. Concluímos essa pesquisa, acreditando que o trabalho com a sequência didática de leitura em projetos contribui para o desenvolvimento da competência leitora de nossos alunos. Por meio da exploração de habilidades de leitura, a sequência didática pode favorecer a apropriação do conhecimento de modo significativo, capacitando os jovens a se tornarem sujeitos críticos e capazes de agir em sociedade. / Even though Portuguese teachers are aware of the necessity of intensifying reading activities, they lack research material, time and more specific information for the development of reading proposals which cater for the demands of the official documents and of the reference matrix of external evaluation. Starting from this necessity, the aim of this research is to show possibilities of classroom reading activities involving the discursive genre short story so as to subsidize didactic-pedagogic proposals about this genre. The reading of short stories is recommended in Elementary, Junior and High Schools by the official documents. According to PCN (Brazil, 1998), Literature provides the possibility to confront languages in social practices and History; explore language resources and recognize social and human values. Our specific aims are: 1) identify the characteristics and specificities of this genre short story which should be considered in classroom reading activities; 2) show reading abilities that can be explored by means of the given genre, taking into account the reading abilities suggested by Reference Matrix of the Elementary School National Evaluation System and by the PISA reading proficiency levels; 3) based on a corpus composed of five short stories, give examples of reading activities developed according to the documents mentioned above, exploring the potentialities of this genre. The theoretical foundation for this research are literary studies of short stories; Bakthins socio-enunciative conception of language, especially the concept of discursive genre and dialogism; the sociocognitive reading approach and the pedagogical work with discursive genres proposed by Dolz and Schneuwly. The theoretical framework mentioned provided us with the necessary subsides for a qualitative analysis of our data, which was developed within a project called OBSERVATÓRIO/UNITAU 2011 2014 Competências e habilidades de leitura: da reflexão teórica ao desenvolvimento e aplicação de propostas didático-pedagógicas, sponsored by the Programa Observatório da Educação CAPES/INEP sob n 23038010000201076. The result of this research is the development of a didactic sequence as a suggestion for the reading of short stories which will help develop classroom reading activities since the reading of literary works, such as short stories, promotes great possibilities for dialogue between senses and knowledge. In conclusion, we believe that the work with reading didactic sequence in projects contribute to the development of students reading competence. By exploring reading abilities, the didactic sequence can favor knowledge appropriation in a significant way, enabling youngsters to become critical and to act in society.

A dissertação A volta do Horla estuda a recepção crítica e criativa de Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) no Brasil, o contista francês mais representativo do século XIX. Esse escritor foi lido, traduzido e comentado nos jornais Gazeta de Noticias, Correio Paulistano, Jornal do Commercio, O Estado de São Paulo (A Provincia de São Paulo, até 1889), de 1880 a 1921, bem como nos principais estudos críticos e bibliográficos de historiadores da Literatura Brasileira, os quais compõem o corpus desta pesquisa. Sua presença é também encontrada em obras ficcionais no período que compreende o Realismo-Naturalismo e o Pré-Modernismo brasileiros, de que são exemplos os livros de contos de Monteiro Lobato (1882-1948). Esse corpus, aqui analisado e interpretado, mostra-nos as diversas leituras feitas pelas variadas correntes críticas em voga no Brasil. Tomam por base critérios literários ou não-literários, estimulados pela vasta produção e particular variedade da obra em questão e pelo conhecimento difundido da vida do autor. Permite-se aqui, portanto, mais um momento de releitura crítica desse escritor, revelado por olhares ora esquecidos e não raro desconhecidos dos estudiosos de Guy de Maupassant. / The dissertation The Horla Return studies the critical and creative reception of Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893) in Brazil, the most representative French storyteller of the 19th century. This writer was read, translated and commented in newspapers Gazeta de Noticias, Correio Paulistano, Jornal do Commercio, O Estado de São Paulo (A Provincia de São Paulo, up to 1889), between 1880 and 1921, as well as in the main critical and bibliographical studies of Brazilian Literature historians, which compose the corpus of this research. Its presence is also found in ficcional works in the period which includes Brazilian Realism-Naturalism and Pre-Modernism, of which the story books of Monteiro Lobato (1882-1948) are examples. This corpus, here analysed and interpreted, discloses diverse readings made for the various critical current in vogue in Brazil. It has as background literary or nonliterary criteria, stimulated for the vast production and internal variety of the work itself and by the knowledge difusion of author\'s life. It is allowed here, therefore an additional moment of critical reading of this writer, depicted through the eyes either forgotten or unknown of Guy de Maupassant\'s scholars.

The goal of this diploma thesis is to create an annotated Czech translation of a literary text. Specifically, the selected three short stories from the collection Ideoluzije (2015) by a Slovenian writer Jasmin B. Frelih. The stories chosen for translation are De Nachtwacht, Vrabci and Pritisk konca. The first part of the thesis briefly introduces the author and his work. The main focus of the work is the translation of selected short stories and creating a professional commentary. The theoretical-practical part deals with individual phenomena that may be problematic in translation, such as neologisms, vulgarisms, interjections, etc. The theoretical interpretation is supported by examples from the short stories. This thesis aims to clarify translation procedures and methods as well as to present solutions to the problems mentioned.

We shall investigate the use of Swahili slang in Freddy Macha`s tiny collection of short stories Twen `zetu Ulaya (DSM 1984), and especially in his short story Check-bob This is arguably the only epistolary short story in modern Swahili literature; in fact, epistolary novels are uncommon in anglophone Afiica as a whole. In this narrative two former lovers show abuses on each other and their four letters - two by each character - unfold the story of a selfish young woman who shamelessly exploited her boyfiiend and the manner in which he paid her back with her own coin. It is interesting to note how the same events are presented from two different perspectives and hence evaluated differently.
