A seguinte dissertação tem por objetivo apresentar um estudo a respeito do autor Domingos Pellegrini e sua poética no contexto da literatura dos anos de 1970 no Brasil. Parte dos propósitos da pesquisa é levantar e analisar os percursos de construção da linguagem, os recursos literários utilizados e os temas escolhidos pelo autor. Para isso, tem-se como objeto de trabalho o livro As sete pragas (1979) e, por meio da utilização da teoria literária baseada nos conceitos elaborados, principalmente, por Antonio Candido, com os quais se analisa os contos e novelas do livro, procura-se sistematizar a poética do autor e, ao mesmo tempo, apresentá-lo literariamente como um escritor da década de 1970. Além da introdução, a pesquisa está organizada em três capítulos orientados de acordo com os principais temas implicados na obra, revendo a organização do livro que dispõe as narrativas em uma divisão de gêneros literários, ou seja, três contos e três novelas. Este trabalho, no entanto, reorganiza as narrativas em dois novos conjuntos, em função dos seguintes temas: o primeiro, a respeito do feminino, como representação dos lugares e espaços sociais ocupados ou negados à mulher em As sete pragas; o segundo, sobre relações de poder configuradas por meio dos espaços ocupados pelo masculino no percurso das narrativas, que se reproduzem nos enredos e nas personagens como forma de representação simbólica do sistema capitalista subdesenvolvido, criando uma unidade com o primeiro capítulo; e por fim, o terceiro, sobre dois momentos da obra do autor, correspondendo às duas edições do livro mencionado (1979 e 2007), tendo como referência as entrevistas concedidas para esta dissertação, reproduzidas no anexo, bem como as alterações ocorridas na segunda edição. / The following essay aims to present a study about the author Domingos Pellegrini and his poetics in the context of the 1970s literature in Brazil. Part of the research purpose is to raise and analyze the language construction of his work, the literary devices used and themes chosen by the author. For this, the focus is on the book As sete pragas (1979) and, through the use of literary theory based on concepts elaborated mainly by Antonio Candido to help analyze the short stories and nouvelles in the book. It thereby seeks to systematize the poetics of the author and, at the same time, present him as a literary writer of the 1970s. Besides the introduction, the research is organized into three chapters corresponding to the main themes. The book is organized by a division of genres, three short stories and three nouvelles, and this work reorganizes these narratives into two groups based on these themes: the first is about the power configuration of the female character in As sete pragas; the second, on other power relations, configured through the space occupied by men in the course of the narratives as a symbolic representation of the late capitalist system in Brazil; and finally, the third presents a comment about two moments of the author\'s work (1979 and 2007), by making reference to the interview for this thesis, which is reproduced in the Annex.The following essay aims to present a study about the author Domingos Pellegrini and his poetics in the context of the 1970s literature in Brazil.

Orientador: Cleide Antonia Rapucci / Banca: Altamir Botoso / Banca: Antônio Roberto Esteves / Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho é demarcar o espaço da escritora Nélida Piñon na literatura de autoria feminina, refletindo sobre as vias de acesso que se abriram quando ela retomou uma das personagens mais conhecidas e míticas da história da Literatura Universal, Scherezade, no romance Vozes do deserto (2004). Este estudo permitiu que se realizasse uma reflexão mais acurada sobre a construção desta personagem a partir da perspectiva da critica feminista (SHOWALTER, 1994) e que se revelasse a condição feminina em um sistema hegemônico, coercivo e patriarcal que legitima as situações de poder, submissão, opressão e violência em relação às mulheres. Sendo assim, este trabalho é um convite para que se conheça a contribuição de Nélida Piñon à luz da evolução contemporânea e da emancipação consciente das mulheres que ousaram transgredir os limites do tempo e espaço em prol de sua visibilidade, independência, liberdade e reconhecimento como sujeito da história. Esses aspectos permitem contemplar as três fases: feminina, feminista e mulher, da literatura de autoria feminina estabelecidas por Elaine Showalter. Apesar de esta obra de Nélida Piñon ser ainda pouco estudada pela crítica brasileira, ela é importante também para os estudos da ginocrítica devido ao discurso crítico especializado sobre os textos produzidos por mulheres. Esta dissertação pretende valorizar o ser mulher que protagoniza não somente a história, mas a ascensão do seu próprio destino no mundo. Em conclusão, a escritora é nome de relevo para o universo literário brasileiro, sendo uma profunda conhecedora da história das mulheres e, portanto, atenta e comprometida com o atual cenário sócio-político cultural brasileiro / Abstract: The genesis of this work is to demarcate the area of the writer Nélida Piñon in the female authorship literature reflecting about the access roads that were opened when the author retook one of the most well-known and mythical character of the Universal Literature - Scherezade - in the novel Voices of the Desert (2004). So, this study allowed to realize a more accurate reflection about this character's construction from the perspective of feminist criticism (SHOWALTER, 1994) bringing out the feminine condition in a hegemonic system, coercity and patriarchal that legitimizes the power situations, submission, oppression and violence against women. Therefore, this work is an invitation to know Nélida Piñon's contribution in contemporary evolution and women's emancipation awareness who dared to transgress the boundaries of time and space to promote their visibility, independence, freedom and recognition as a subject of the history. These aspects allow to gaze on the three phases: feminine, feminist and female of the Women's literature established by Elaine Showalter. Although this novel has been little researched by Brazilian criticism yet, it is also important to the gynocritical studies because the gynocriticism speech is a critical and specialized speech about texts written by women. So, this dissertation intends to enhance (value) the female who stars not only the history but makes possible the rise of her own destiny in the world. To conclude, the writer is outstanding name for the Brazilian Literary Universe and she demonstrates a deep knowledge about women's history and, therefore, attentive and compromised with the current social political and cultural Brazilian scenery / Mestre

The characters are: D. Maria Ana Josefa, Sebastiana de Jesus and Blimunda de Jesus. The inductive methodology was used, starting from the particular premises while we observed the incidences of the discourse of silence in the corpus, with the purpose of reaching another premise, which is the identification and characterization of this phenomenon in the literary discourse. The research has a qualitative and phenomenological nature, since we believe that the knowledge of the problem is the result of the vision we have about what is perceived: the speech of silence of the characters. This perception reveals us that the absence of voices does not mean a gap in the saying, taking into account that the silence of women has a meaning. The silence of characters is one recorded by the author and has a resounding of the story as a determining ingredient for the behavior of such characters. Therefore, the construction of the saying of the silence has a structure based on the conception the society had regarding women and witches. In order to cover the problem thoroughly, our starting point was a careful reading of the novel, looking at the behavior of the characters under consideration, considering not only the historical and social circumstances that impacted the women of the 18th century, period covered by the narrator, but also the lines of literary discourse in the novel. For the theoretical underpinning of this study, we researched intensively the postulates of the Literary Theory about novels related to History and Fiction, focusing mainly on the concepts of characters and narrator / Nesta Dissertação, fizemos uma análise das falas do silêncio das personagens femininas do romance Memorial do Convento de José Saramago: D. Maria Ana Josefa, Sebastiana de Jesus e Blimunda de Jesus. Utilizamos o método indutivo, ou seja, partimos das premissas particulares na observação da incidência do discurso do silêncio no corpus, em direção a outra premissa que é o nosso objeto, isto é, a identificação e caracterização da existência deste fenômeno no discurso literário. A pesquisa é de caráter qualitativo e fenomenológico, pois o conhecimento do problema é o resultado da visão que temos sobre o percebido: a fala do silêncio das personagens. Esta observação nos garante revelar que a ausência da voz não significa a lacuna do dizer, pois o silêncio das mulheres tem um significado. O calar das personagens é um calar registrado pelo narrador e tem uma ressonância da história como ingrediente determinante para o comportamento das mesmas. Portanto, a construção do dizer do silêncio tem uma estrutura alicerçada na concepção que a sociedade tinha das mulheres e bruxas. Para cobrirmos o problema cabalmente, partimos da leitura atenta, analisando os atos das personagens focalizadas, no estudo, desde as circunstâncias históricas e sociais que marcaram as mulheres no período contemplado pelo narrador, século XVIII, até as linhas do discurso literário no romance. Para o suporte deste estudo, nos debruçamos nos postulados da Teoria Literária sobre o romance (enfocando principalmente os conceitos de personagens e narrador), da História e da ficção

Computer and video games have taken the world by storm, since their creation the interest for these games has increased and approximately 62% of the Swedish population now plays computer or video games. A game character is of tremendous importance in a game and plays a central part in the whole game, however, the portrayal of these characters are often unrealistic. The female characters, however few, are often portrayed as oversexualized or subjugated as sexual objects. In this paper, a research is made studying the game experience from women’s point of view, trying to clarify how women are affected by the game characters they are offered in these games and how they are affected by them. The method used to investigate the thesis in this study is a qualitative study where a focus group consisting of ten female gamers are interviewed. The data collected in this study is the responses from the interviews. The central parts of their answers will be the topics in the results and discussion. The results show that game characters and how they are portrayed as well as how the game is designed affects the gamers greatly.

It is intrinsic to modernity the expansion of the philosophical detachment from the religious view as critical reason takes place in science, art and the worldview of modern man. Through Kant's reflections, in The Religion within the limits of reason alone (1793), we will seek to understand this process of rupture between faith and reason which explains the prevailing thought in postmodernity. We chose the renowned writer, José Saramago, and his works of religious nature as our objects of study, The Gospel According to Jesus Christ (1991) and Cain (2009), as they represent, in the Portuguese language, the voice of the man who is still attracted by the literature of literatures – composed by the Pentateuch and the other canonical books. The author wishes to understand, question and to find the contradictions in believing in an absent, flawed and guilty God. Instigated by the importance in which the "Marys" are portrayed in the Apocryphal Gospels, and to further condemn this God, Saramago recreates in his parodies, a postmodern and anti-religious gospel whose eroticized reinvention of the biblical women - the "Marys", Eve and Lilith - results in the demystification and humanization of the characters and the destabilization of patriarchal discourse. Thus, before analyzing the creation of a new myth of women and their role in Saramago, we will study what was postulated by the feminist theorists, Simone de Beauvoir (2016) and Luce Irigaray (2017), which determine the place of the woman as the "Other", by an exclusionary monologic language that puts her at the service of the elaboration of the universalizing male, which also occurs in the saaramguian language.

Beside the innumerable male characters in the Chinese classic, The Romance of The Three Kingdoms, there is one female general: Lady Zhurong (祝融夫人). This thesis addresses the research gap in studying the unique case of Lady Zhurong, the only woman in the novel that leads an army in battle. By using a qualitative method, the thesis investigates how Lady Zhurong’s portrayal is influenced by her gender. An intersectional theory is used to contextualize how her ethnicity as Nanman (南蛮) and her social status intersects with her gender. Furthermore, it compares her to how other minor male generals are portrayed. The analysis finds that Lady Zhurong’s character should be understood from the context of her ethnic background and the overall negative portrayal of the Nanman. Nevertheless, as suggested in the story through the description of the Nanman, some gender norms differ between them and the Chinese society of the time. This enables her to have more autonomy than other women which in turn enables her to fight on the battlefield and lead an army. Despite the general negative depiction of the Nanman, Lady Zhurong’s portrayal, performance, and the expectations of her as a general is equivalent to that of the male generals in the story. Compared to other Nanman generals she even outperforms them. However, her character should not be understood as merely an emasculation of the other Nanman-generals. Lady Zhurong has agency, and the findings can contribute to our wider understanding of women’s multifaceted roles in traditional Chinese society. / 经典名著《三国演义》虽然刻画了无数的男性角色，但它却只塑造了唯一一位女性将 领——南蛮女将“祝融夫人”。本论文以这个少见的角色为研究主题，采用质性研究 的方法，以祝融夫人这一独特的女将形象为例，分析研究小说人物形象的塑造如何受 到角色性别的影响。并利用交叉性理论的分析视角，结合祝融夫人的“南蛮”身份， 探究民族背景与社会阶层如何与性别交互影响。此外，本文也分析比较祝融夫人和其 他男性将领角色。所以本文发现因为小说对南蛮的评价负面,因此必须在这个背景当中 理解祝融夫人的角色。尽管南蛮和当时的汉人社会都有性别角色的差异，但祝融夫人， 比较三国演义上的其他女性角色有更多的自主权，甚而统率部队上阵。在对南蛮的普 遍负面描述中，祝融的军功和野心都是比肩男将军，甚至比其他南蛮将军更出色。然 而，这个角色的功能并不仅仅是削弱其他南蛮将领，而具有个体能动性。这些发现有 助于我们更广泛地理解传统中国社会中女性的多元面貌。

Les années 30 représentent un moment fondamental dans le processus culturel et identitaire du Brésil, où la fonction sociale de la littérature, notamment du roman, et le rôle de l’écrivain en tant que ‘conscience vivante’ du pays sont reconnus et problématisés. Cependant, dans la majorité des histoires, des anthologies et des manuels littéraires, aucun nom de femme ne figure parmi les auteurs canoniques de la période, à l’exception de celui de Rachel de Queiroz. L’analyse des sources de l’époque montre que, au contraire, auteures comme Lúcia Benedetti, Jenny Pimentel de Borba, Làsinha Luís Carlos de Caldas Brito, Maria José Dupré, Ondina Ferreira, Emi Bulhões Carvalho Fonseca, Ignez Mariz, Carolina Nabuco, Lúcia Miguel Pereira, Dinah Silveira de Queiroz, Tetrá de Teffé et bien d’autres sont publiées, lues et appréciées par la critique et le public. A partir d’une étude du contexte historique et littéraire, ainsi que de la réception et des aspects éditoriaux, les mécanismes qui ont permis leur effacement de la mémoire sont démontés et expliquée leur non intégration à la tradition littéraire brésilienne. La lecture des romans de ces auteures permet d’approfondir le discours sur la participation des femmes au moment littéraire et social des années 30 et 40 par une analyse des représentations. Les personnages qui peuplent ces ouvrages, et notamment les personnages féminins, sont un objet idéal pour analyser les phénomènes identitaires qui caractérisent ce moment historique avec ses contradictions. / The 1930’s represent a fundamental period in the development of Brazil’s culture and identity, as a time during which the social function of literature, specifically the novel, and the role of the author as the “living conscience” of the country are found and problematicized. However, in the majority of stories, anthologies, and literary manuals, not one female author’s name is found among the canonic authors of the period, with the exception of Rachel de Queiroz. The analysis of sources from the era demonstrate that, on the contrary, female authors such as Lúcia Benedetti, Jenny Pimentel de Borba, Làsinha Luís Carlos de Caldas Brito, Maria José Dupré, Ondina Ferreira, Emi Bulhões Carvalho Fonseca, Ignez Mariz, Carolina Nabuco, Lúcia Miguel Pereira, Dinah Silveira de Queiroz, Tetrá de Teffé and many others were published, read, and appreciated by the critic and the public. Following the examination of the historical and literary context of these writings, as well as their reception and editorial aspects, the mechanisms which allowed for their deletion from memory are dismantled, explaining the lack of integration of these writings in the Brazilian literary tradition. Reading and analyzing the representations of these female authors’ novels allows for the expansion of the discourse on the participation of women in the literary and social era of the 1930’s and 1940’s. The characters, notably the female ones, which populate these works are an ideal subject for the analysis of phenomena of identity which characterize this historical time period, along with their contradictions. / Os anos 30 representam um momento fundamental no processo cultural e identitário do Brasil, onde a função social da literatura, especialmente do romance, e o papel do escritor como « consciência viva » do país são reconhecidos e problematizados. Contudo, na maioria das histórias, antologias e manuais literários, nenhum nome feminino figura entre os autores canônicos do período, com a exceção de Rachel de Queiroz. A análise das fontes da época mostra que, pelo contrário, autoras como Lúcia Benedetti, Jenny Pimentel de Borba, Làsinha Luís Carlos de Caldas Brito, Maria José Dupré, Ondina Ferreira, Emi Bulhões Carvalho da Fonseca, Ignez Mariz, Carolina Nabuco, Lucia Miguel Pereira, Dinah Silveira de Queiroz, Tetrá de Teffé e tantas outras foram publicadas, lidas e apreciadas pela crítica e pelo público. A partir de um estudo do contexto histórico e literário, bem como da recepção e dos aspectos editoriais, os mecanismos que permitiram o desaparecimento de tais autoras da memória são desmontados, explicando sua falta de integração à tradição literária brasileira. A leitura dos romances destas autoras permite o aprofundamento do discurso sobre a participação das mulheres no contexto literário e social dos anos 30 e 40 através de uma análise das representações. As personagens que povoam estas obras, especialmente as personagens femininas, são um objeto ideal para analisar os fenômenos identitários que caracterizam este momento histórico e suas contradições.

La presente tesi di dottorato ha come oggetto la trasposizione televisiva di tre romanzi character driven: Heidi, Pippi Calzelunghe e The Story of Tracy Beaker. Questi, analizzati soprattutto dal punto di vista della protagonista femminile, sono stati studiati, così come i relativi adattamenti, utilizzando un modello metodologico di analisi che poggia le sue basi teoriche sia nell'estetica della letteratura per ragazzi sia nelle teorie dell'adattamento e della sceneggiatura. Il mercato audiovisivo e la tipologia di spettatori cambiano rapidamente e ciò rende necessaria un'attualizzazione non solo tematica, ma anche stilistica dell'opera originaria, alla ricerca di un compromesso tra la fedeltà al testo iniziale, necessaria per permettere al target l'immediata riconoscibilità dell'opera e dei personaggi, e l'esigenza di rispettare le richieste della contemporaneità. A livello accademico, lo studio degli adattamenti della letteratura per l'infanzia si è concentrato quasi esclusivamente in ambito cinematografico e non televisivo, nonostante quest'ultimo fornisca molti spunti di riflessione tanto sul processo di adattamento in sé quanto sulla serialità. Il presente lavoro si propone perciò di andare a riempire il gap teorico sull'argomento, ponendosi necessariamente a cavallo di due ambiti, -la letteratura e l'audiovisivo. Di conseguenza, l'approccio privilegiato è più letterario che pedagogico e si interseca con gli studi sull'adattamento e sull'industria audiovisiva. / This PhD dissertation investigates the adaptations from children's novels into television series, with a focus on three character-driven stories: Heidi, Pippi Longstockings and The Story of Tracy Beaker. Starting from the original novels, investigated mostly from the point of view of the female protagonist, the study then analyses the corresponding television adaptations, whether animated or live action, through a methodology that has its theoretical basis both in the aesthetics of children's literature and in the screenwriting theories. Nowadays, the audiovisual market and therefore the public are changing rapidly, making it necessary to update the thematic and the stylistic features of the original works from which the adaptations are drawn. Actually, adaptation is often a compromise between the contemporary market demand and the fidelity to the content, necessary to fulfil the expectations of the target audience. Surprisingly, there is a scarcity of critical literature on children's television adaptations, even if they represent a very rich topic as they raise specific issues both on the adaptation process itself and on serialisation. The present work, therefore, aims to fill the existing gap in the field of children's adaptations, placing itself where two critical areas, literature and media, meet. Consequently, the primary narrative approach intersects with studies on adaptation and audiovisual industry.
