Dramaturgia e ficção curta: um estudo de suas ligações e projeções na obra teatral de Tennessee Williams [1911-1983] / Drama and fiction: a study of its links and projections in the theater of Tennessee Williams [1911-1983]

Elizabeth Belleza Flandoli 02 February 2017 (has links)
A proposta desta tese é comprovar o número expressivo da obra ficcional de Tennessee Williams, relativamente extensa por abranger cerca de cinquenta contos, que representou de formas variadas a gênese ficcional de peças posteriores, além de apontar casos de peças vistas como matrizes que prefiguram a matéria ficcional de contos ou até mesmo de roteiros cinematográficos criados pelo autor. A predominância dos episódios em que os contos se colocam como matrizes ficcionais de importantes trabalhos dramatúrgicos do escritor foi constatada através do levantamento e da análise da produção dramatúrgica e ficcional de Tennessee Williams. Ao empreendermos o estudo analítico de três peças em um ato e uma peça em três atos [peça longa], foi possível estabelecermos a relação entre as peças e a estrutura ficcional dos contos, assim como apresentar um entendimento mais profundo dos processos formais e dos elos compositivos ligando sua ficção curta e a dramaturgia: The Dark Room [O Quarto Escuro, peça e conto, de aproximadamente 1939/1940], Something Unspoken [Algo não Dito, peça de 1953] e Happy August the Tenth [Feliz Dez de Agosto, conto de 1970]; Twenty-seven Wagons Full of Cotton [Vinte e sete Carros de Algodão, conto de 1935] e a peça em um ato de mesmo título [escrita antes de 1946] e The Night of the Iguana [A Noite do Iguana: conto escrito entre 1946-48 e peça de mesmo título, em um ato, de 1959 e em três atos, de 1961]. Dessa forma, o diálogo entre diversos tipos de arte foi mapeado e as representações da história na dramaturgia e em sua ficção curta investigadas. / The purpose of this thesis is to prove the expressive number of short stories by Tennessee Williams, relatively high to be composed of around fifty short stories which represented in various manners the genesis of later theater plays, besides highlighting cases of plays seen/ considered sources of short-story telling or even screenplays written by the author. The supremacy of episodes in which the short stories are seen as fictional sources of dramaturgic works by the writer was confirmed by verifying and analyzing the theater and the production/creation of short stories by Tennessee Williams. By doing the analytical study of three theater plays in one-act and a three-act play [fulllength play] it was possible to establish the relationship between the theater plays and the structure of the short stories as well as present a more profound understanding of the formal processes and the links between the plays and his short stories: The Dark Room [O Quarto Escuro, theater play and short story, approximately 1939/1940], Something Unspoken [Algo não Dito, play, 1953] and Happy August the Tenth [Feliz Dez de Agosto, short story, 1970]; Twenty-seven Wagons Full of Cotton [Vinte e sete Carros de Algodão, short story, 1935] and the one-act play with the same title [written before 1946] e The Night of the Iguana [A Noite do Iguana: short story written between 1946-48 and the play with the same title, in one act, in 1959 and in three acts, in 1961]. Therefore, the dialogue among various types of art was studied, besides the sources of inspiration of the playwright and the representations of history on drama and in his short stories investigated.

Situo seu discurso na confluência de três paradigmas de gênero (literário e categoria de análise) postos em tensão: o Künstlerroman de autoria feminina, a biografia ficcional ou imaginária e o conto. Examino de que modo a autora constrói retratos da mulher-artista, seja ela uma figura documentada pela historiografia oficial ou um ser possível e imaginável, no viés tanto da trajetória da protagonista-artista, quanto dos processos intertextuais e dialógicos presentes na écriture lunardiana. A ênfase na análise da representação da artista em narrativas curtas de Adriana Lunardi conduz a discussões tais como: o conflito arte versus vida, o diálogo constante entre memória e expressão artística, o corpo feminino, o processo simbólico de morte e re/nascimento, as construções literárias mise en abyme e os jogos intertextuais. Devido ao caráter bibliográfico e hermenêutico da presente pesquisa, na abordagem crítica e analítica aos textos, além dos fundamentos teóricos, utilizo documentos externos aos contos; alguns pertencem ao campo da história (biografias oficiais) e outros, ao da literatura (obras das protagonistas). A narrativa curta de Lunardi, além de inovar configurações dos gêneros literários, Künstlerroman e biografia ficcional, amplia as fronteiras dos estudos de gênero. As distintas figurações da mulher-artista nos contos instauram o diálogo entre uma grande diversidade de textos, fato que traz maior visibilidade à autoria feminina e demonstra a flexibilidade da moldura da historiografia literária brasileira. / In this dissertation, from the analysis of “Uma biografia para Barbie”, in As meninas da Torre Helsinque (1966), of “Sonhadora”, “Ginny”, “Flapper” and “Clarice”, in Vésperas (2002), both works by Adriana Lunardi (SC, 1964), I investigate the narrative strategies the writer uses in order to enlighten the questions that deal with art and the woman-artist. I locate her discourse in the confluence of three paradigms of gender as well as genre which are placed under tension: the female Künstlerroman, the fictional biography and the short-story. I examine how the writer builds pictures of the woman-artist, being her a historical and officially documented subject or a possible and imaginary being, from the perspective of both the protagonist-artist´s trajectory and of the writer´s intertextual and dialogic processes involved in her écriture. The emphasis on the analysis of the artist´s representation in shortstories by Adriana Lunardi leads to discussions on: the conflict art versus life, the permanent dialogue between memory and artistic expression, the female body, the symbolic process of death and re/birth, the mise en abyme literary constructions and the intertextual games. Due to the bibliographic and hermeneutic character of the present research, throughout the critic and analytic approach to the short-stories besides the theoretical basis I use documental material external to the corpus; some of them belong to the field of history (traditional and official biographies) and some to the literary one (the protagonists´ works). Lunardi´s short-stories, besides innovating in terms of the configurations of literary genres, Künstlerroman and fictional biography, enlarge the frontiers of the studies of gender. The distinct representations of the woman-artist in the short-stories establish the dialogue among a great diversity of texts, fact that allows the female authorship a wider visibility and demonstrates how flexible the framework of the Brazilian literary historiography is.

Com essas ficções, Miranda enquadra-se em uma tendência da literatura contemporânea que cria biografias ficcionais de escritores ou artistas. Nesse sentido, a presente dissertação integra um comentário das obras de Miranda enquadradas no gênero metaficcional historiográfico e uma leitura interpretativa de Clarice, foco deste estudo. Para tanto, são pensadas questões relativas à literatura e sua relação com a história. Logo, apresenta-se uma visão de conjunto das narrativas de Ana Miranda que tematizam a história da literatura brasileira, aprofundando-se nos conceitos de ficção, metaficção e metaficção historiográfica. No contexto geral, relativo aos problemas de tipologia e poética narrativa, desenvolve-se a análise literária de Clarice, encaminhando a leitura para a constituição da obra, sobretudo no que tem a ver com suas estratégias intertextuais, no caso presente, a ficção de Clarice Lispector, o que motiva a reflexão em torno da escrita e da leitura literária. / The novel Clarice (1996), by Ana Miranda, completes the series of works, in which the narrator creates the authors’ of the Brazilian literary canon life. With those fictions, Miranda became part of a tendency in the contemporary literature that creates fictional biographies of writers or artists. In that sense, the present dissertation integrates a discussion of Miranda’s works included in the genre known as historiographic metafiction and also integrates an interpretative reading of Clarice, the study’s focus narrative. So, questions related to literature are thought in relationship with the history. Therefore, it shows a vision of group of Ana Miranda’s narratives that talk about the history of the Brazilian literature, being deepened in the concepts of fiction, metafiction and historiographic metafiction. In this general context, which deals with typology problems and poetic narrative, it grows Clarice’s literary analysis that directs the reading for the constitution of the work, concerning to the intertextual strategies, in this case Clarice Lispector’s fiction, which motivates the reflection around literary strategies as reading and writing.

O ponto crucial desta pesquisa foi propor uma revisão destes três primeiros romances do escritor e apontá-los como força motora do grande laboratório ficcional de Lúcio Cardoso. Desta forma, propôs-se acentuar o trabalho de experiência constante com a linguagem que teve sua culminância na Crônica da casa assassinada, obra-prima do autor, escrita em 1956. Dentro desta hipótese de laboratório ficcional em processo buscou-se destacar a presença marcante do regionalismo nas duas primeiras narrativas de Lúcio e a ruptura desta linha literária a partir de A luz no subsolo. / This work aimed to draw Lúcio Cardoso’s writing profile from the publications of Maleita and Salgueiro, of 1934 and 1935, to the writing of A Luz no subsolo, his third novel, launched in 1936. The crucial point of this research was to propose a revision of these three first writer’s novels and point them out as motor power of Lúcio Cardoso’s great fictional laboratory. This way, it was proposed to accentuate the work of constant experimentation with a language that had its peak in Crônica da casa assassinada, author’s masterpiece, written in 1956. In this fictional laboratory hypothesis in process we seeked to bring out the remarkable presence of regionalism in the two first Lúcio’s narrations and the break of this literary line from A Luz no subsolo.

Pelos olhos de Alice: ancestralidade afro-ameríndia, ambientalismo e formação - uma tese de ficção autobiográfica / Through the eyes of Alice: afro-amerindian ancestrality, environmentalism and formation an autobiographic fiction thesis.

Carla Wanessa do Amaral Caffagni 23 September 2016 (has links)
Esta pesquisa buscou desenvolver um estudo em antropologia simbólica sobre o processo de autoformação do sujeito a partir da análise de um material de ficção autobiográfica. Este material foi elaborado com base no resgate e registro escrito de memórias da própria autora da pesquisa e teve seu início na escrita do memorial acadêmico, que forneceu elementos propícios para a compreensão do processo de formação de um eu-aprendiz. A ficção autobiográfica analisada, escrita anteriormente à pesquisa, tem como personagem principal a menina Alice, que vive suas aventuras em narrativas fantásticas, cujo simbolismo propicia uma análise fenomenológica sobre as emoções e experiências que, ao longo da vida, permitiram a formação do sujeito-autor deste trabalho, considerando-o mais do que um produto do meio social ou ambiental, mas um ser em constante formação, fruto também das suas escolhas e de suas próprias leituras do mundo. As experiências vividas e representadas no mundo simbólico de Alice consideram como parte de sua criação o contato com alguns mestres, que por meio da palavra e do convívio orientaram desejos e influenciaram escolhas ao longo da vida da autora. Para compreender a relação entre mestre e aprendiz vivida por Alice, partimos para o resgate de histórias de vida de dois mestres que tiveram papéis decisivos para a autora. Buscamos encontrar na autobiografia ficcional conexões entre estas histórias de vida, por via da mitohermenêutica, tentando entender como estas vidas foram sendo construídas e em que momento estas pessoas passaram a ser mestres e a autora, aprendiz. Uma busca sobre o eu e o outro que se constitui em mim. / This research aimed to develop an anthropological study about the subject`s self-formation process from the analysis of an autobiographical fiction. This material was elaborate based on the very author`s rescue and written record of memories and had its beginning on the writing of an academic memorial, providing favorable elements for the comprehension of the self-learner formation process. The autobiographic fiction analyzed was written before the research, has as its main subject the girl called Alice, that lived her adventures in fantastic narratives, whose symbolism foments an phenomenological analysis in the experiences and emotions that, during life, allowed the formation of this author-subjects work, considering herself more than a social and environmental media, but someone in constant formation, also a result of her choices and her own readings of the world. The experiences lived and represented in Alice`s symbolic world, consider, as part of her creation, the contact with some masters that through orality and acquaintanceship, determined desires and influenced choices along the authors life. To understand the relation between master and apprentice played by Alice, we start from the rescue of life stories of two masters that had decisive parts for the author-subject. We seek to find connections between these life stories in the fictional autobiography, via mitohermeneutics, trying to understand how these lives were being constructed and in what moment these people passed to be masters, and the author, apprentice. A search about the self, and the other that is constituted in me.

Technological uncertainties and popular culture

Hitchin, Linda January 2002 (has links)
This thesis is an inquiry into possibilities and problems of a sociology of translation. Beginning with a recognition that actor network theory represents a sociological account of social life premised upon on recognition of multiple ontologies, interruptions and translations, the thesis proceeds to examine problems of interpretation and representation inherent in these accounts. Tensions between sociological interpretation and social life as lived are examined by comparing representation of nonhuman agency in both an actor-network and a science fiction study of doors. The power identified in each approach varies from point making to lying. A case is made for considering fictional storytelling as sociology and hence, the sociological value of lying. It is by close examination of a fictional story that this study aims to contribute to a sociology of translation. The greater part of the thesis comprises an ethnographic study of a televised children's story. Methodological issues in ethnography are addressed and a case is made for a complicit and multi-site ethnography of story. The ethnography is represented in two particular forms. Firstly, and unusually, story is treated as a Storyworld available for ethnographic study. An actor network ethnography of this Storyworld reveals sociologically useful similarities and differences between fictional Storyworld and contemporary, social life. Secondly, story is taken as a product, a broadcast television series of six programmes. An ethnography of story production is undertaken that focuses attention on production performances, hidden storytellers and politics of authorship. Story is revealed as an unfinished project. A prominent aspect of this thesis is a recognition that fictional storytelling both liberates and constrains story possibilities. This thesis concludes that, in addressing critically important tensions in sociological representation, fictional stories should be included in sociological literature as studies in their own right.

The purpose of the thesis is not a historical interpretation, but a narratological comparative interpretation. After the characteristic of the myth and its functioning in literary texts, there follows an interpretation of the theory of fictional worlds, which also deals with myths. Then follows the individual variations of the story, subjected to the submitted narrative-interpretation analysis also in terms of composition, characters and narrators. The objective is to capture the individual changes of the story and provide a comprehensive picture of how individual authors work with this narrative and how the story changes and transforms.

Vztah narativity literatury a počítačových her / Relation of narrative of novels and computer games

Hanták, Daniel January 2015 (has links)
This paper tries to characterize relation between narrative of novels and computer games. In its first part it points out specifics of the narrative of videogames, but also shows how narrative used in literature reacted in a form of multiform stories. It defines the possible kinds of relations between these two media (genetical influence, influence of structural analogy, influence of functional similarity, influence of shared contextual functioning, metatextual relation and changes caused by shared influences of perception), shows possible directions in which they can be used and finally it shows some of the prominent examples from both media to make these relations clearer. The main interest of the paper is then influence of structural analogy because of comparison of possibilities in both kinds of narrative.

The Law and Its Enforcers in Faulkner's Trilogy

Wright, Kenneth Patrick 12 1900 (has links)
This thesis evaluates how effectively the trilogy's laws and law enforcers further the ends of the fictional laws. The study examines the trilogy's law enforcers' responses to Snopes violations and bendings of the laws to evaluate the laws and their enforcers. The enforcers' responses to Snopes wrongs make clear how well the laws are written. These responses also reveal how well the enforcers themselves are able to achieve the objectives of the laws. It is argued in the thesis that although the laws are effectively written, the law enforcers fail to enforce the laws and, consequently, fail to achieve the laws' ends. It is also shown that the enforcers invariably harm innocent persons when they fail to enforce the law.
