No ano de 1934, o artista alemão Max Ernst lança em Paris um peculiar conjunto de fascículos intitulado Uma Semana de Bondade ou os Sete Elementos Capitais. Trata-se, segundo o próprio artista, de um romance de colagens. A obra, que fora pensada e produzida por Ernst durante férias na Itália, consiste de 182 colagens feitas a partir da combinação de figuras provenientes de romances folhetinescos do século XIX e de enciclopédias do mesmo período. Em cada uma dessas colagens, há cenas de violência e horror, praticadas por seres estranhos, meio humanos, meio animais. Fora a estranheza já naturalmente causada pelas colagens, é curioso notar o fato de que a obra se apresenta como um romance, tanto na denominação dada pelo autor, quanto pela forma na qual foi lançado, inicialmente por meio de cadernos periódicos, à moda dos folhetins, e posteriormente na forma de um grande volume. Este trabalho procura analisar como duas características caras ao romance se configuram nesta obra de Ernst. São elas a narratividade e os personagens. Para tanto, o trabalho faz uma revisão do movimento surrealista, apresentando a colagem de Max Ernst e a análise da narratividade e dos personagens em Uma Semana de Bondade. / In 1934, the German artist Max Ernst launches in Paris a peculiar set of fascicles entitled A Week of Kindness or the Seven Deadly Elements. It is, according to the artist himself, a \"collage-novel\". The work, which was conceived and produced by Ernst during a holiday in Italy, is consisted of 182 collages made from the combination of pictures from nineteenth-century kitsch novels and encyclopedias of the same period. In each of these collages, there are scenes of violence and horror, practiced by strange beings, half human, half animals. Apart from the strangeness already caused by the collages themselves, it is curious to note the fact that the work presents itself as a novel, in the denomination given by the author and also in the form in which it was launched, initially by means of periodical fascicles, in the style of serial novels, and later in the form of a large volume. This work tries to analyze how two characteristics of the novel are configured in this Ernst\'s work: narrativity and characters. In order to do this, the surrealist movement is reviewed, presenting the collage of Max Ernst and the analysis of narrativity and characters in A Week of Kindness.

Cette recherche doctorale est dans la continuité de nos précédents travaux. Après avoir étudié l’investissement de l’enfant à naître suite à une conception médicalisée, dans un contexte d’infertilité féminine, nous nous sommes intéressées au passage du conjugal au parental, au risque d’une « parentalité médicalement assistée ». Les résultats de ses deux premières recherches ont montré l’impact du diagnostic d’infertilité féminine, et de sa prise en charge, sur la psyché des femmes, sur la conjugalité et sur le devenir parent. Pour cette thèse nous avons souhaité changer notre regard afin de le porter sur les enfants nés de mère infertiles, en questionnant leur construction subjective au regard d’un tel contexte. Nous avons fait le choix de penser, plus particulièrement le devenir des jeunes femmes nées de mères infertiles, à travers la question de la spécificité du lien mère/fille au sein des processus de subjectivation et de la transmission d’un féminin maternel blessé par un diagnostic d’infertilité. L’appropriation subjective de l’histoire conceptionnelle étant alors au centre de cette recherche nous avons élaboré une méthodologie de type qualitative à partir du récit conceptionnel que nous avons souhaité mettre à l’épreuve dans ce contexte. Le peu de travaux concernant les enfants « nés de » nous ont amenés à conduire une recherche exploratoire s’inscrivant au sein du paradigme subjectiviste, dans un cadre d’orientation psychanalytique. Nous questionnons ainsi l’impact de l’histoire conceptionnelle sur les processus de subjectivation, la construction identitaire, et la narrativité des jeunes femmes nées de mère infertile. Si les résultats montrent que nous ne pouvons nier l’impact de l’histoire conceptionnelle sur la construction du sujet, ils ont révélé aussi que nous ne pouvions faire l’économie de penser l’influence du vécu maternel de cette histoire et du discours –ou du silence- qui l’entoure. / This doctoral research is in the continuity of our previous ones. After having studied the investment of the unborn child following a medically assisted procreation, we were interested in the becoming parents in this context. Results have shown how the women psyche, the couple and the becoming parents are impacted by the diagnosis of infertility and then its medical care. The purpose of this doctoral thesis is to focus on the child born of infertile mother, questioning their identity construction. We decided to study, particularly, the young women born of infertile mothers across the specific mother/daughter relationship and the feminine transmission injured by the infertility. The psychical working through of the conceptional story is at the center of this research. The sparsely amount of studies, regarding children born of infertile mother, led us to conduct an explorative research on this specific topic. So we elaborated, in a psychoanalytical framework a qualitative methodology based on the conceptional narrative approach, in order to test it in this context. Thus, we questioned the impact of the conceptional story upon the process of subjectivization, the identity construction, and the narrativity. If the results show that we cannot deny the impact of conceptional story on individual construction, they also reveal that we have to take in consideration the subjective maternal experience of the infertility and its medical care, more to the point the story she tells, or not, about it.

Exercer la sémiotique sans s’intéresser au monde de la vie, c’est condamner l’analyse à l’insignifiance, car le sens est cette direction indéterminée que tracent nos vies, individuelles et collectives, depuis que nous existons. Les textes et les objets qui composent le monde portent en conséquence tous, bien qu’à des degrés d’évidence variables, l’empreinte d’une multitude de vies humaines.Dans sa foulée, la vie humaine marque ainsi les textes et les objets qui croisent son chemin, ainsi que les activités qu’elle accomplit pour parvenir à ses fins et, ce faisant, persister dans son cours. Sur sa lancée, elle confère à ces existences et ces expériences une forme symbolique, celle de l’idée qu’elle dessine, malgré elle, de sa propre persévérance.C’est ce parcours, ou ce récit – car la vie, à travers ses péripéties, écrit aussi un récit –, que cette thèse vise à retracer en vue de définir la forme de vie, cette notion introduite par Algirdas Julien Greimas, au début des années 1990, dans les études sémiotiques, et qui, aujourd’hui, interpelle les sémioticiens désireux d’inscrire leurs recherches dans le champ des sciences de la culture, mais sans clairement savoir ce qu’il retourne de cette notion aux contours sinueux comme le sens. Instaurant le dialogue entre les sémioticiens de l’École de Paris qui se sont intéressés à la question, ce texte se propose de reconsidérer le statut existentiel des formes de vie, de décrire comment elles émergent dans l’expérience, de typologiser leurs variétés, enfin, d’expliquer comment, à terme, elles parviennent à colorer de leurs éthiques les milieux humains. / Doing semiotics without paying attention to the realm of life amounts to condemn analyses to insignificance, because meaning is this indeterminate direction that our individual and collective lives always trace. Texts and objects that are part of the world therefore all bear the imprint of a multitude of human lives, albeit with varying degrees of evidence.In its wake, human life thus marks texts and objects that cross its path, as well as the activities it carries out to achieve its goals and, in so doing, to persist in its course. In its track, human life gives these existences and experiences a symbolic form, that of the idea it draws of its own perseverance.It’s precisely this path, or this narrative – because life, through its adventures, also writes a narrative –, that this thesis aims to recount in order to define the concept of form of life introduced by Algirdas Julien Greimas in semiotic studies, at the beginning of the 1990s, and which, today, challenges semioticians wishing to place their research in the field of cultural studies, but without clearly knowing what returns from this notion as sinuous as meaning. Encouraging a dialogue between the semioticians of the Paris School Semiotics who have investigated the topic, this dissertation proposes to reconsider the existential status of the forms of life, to describe how they emerge from experience, to provide a typology of their varieties and, finally, to explain how, in the long run, they succeed in colouring human worlds by their ethics.

O presente trabalho tem o objetivo de mostrar como o texto tropicalista rompe com a estrutura de textos tradicionais. Para isso caracterizamos a narratividade tradicional e mostramos como ela à rompida no posicionamento tropicalista, por meio da descriÃÃo de procedimentos utilizados na desestruturaÃÃo de seus textos, bem como de fatores que geram a desconstruÃÃo das cenas das canÃÃes. Nosso estudo fundamenta-se em dois aportes teÃricos principais: na perspectiva da AnÃlise do Discurso de linha Francesa, desenvolvida por Dominique Maingueneau (1997, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2006, 2008), com destaque para conceitos como cenografia, gÃnero e cÃdigos de linguagem, intertextualidade e interdiscursividade, e no Discurso Literomusical, desenvolvido por Costa (2001). Para a anÃlise, lanÃamos mÃo dos estudos de Adam e Revaz (1996) no que diz respeito à concepÃÃo de narratividade baseada em um modelo canÃnico, pautado pela seguinte estruturaÃÃo: situaÃÃo inicial, transformaÃÃo e situaÃÃo final. Seguindo essa estruturaÃÃo, foi explorada a relaÃÃo entre o texto e suas condiÃÃes de produÃÃo e os aspectos que nos permitiram verificar de que forma se dà a ruptura da narratividade no movimento tropicalista a partir da Ãpoca da Ditadura militar, do processo histÃrico da PÃs-Modernidade e da concepÃÃo de sujeito que esse processo implica, dentre outros aspectos sÃcio-histÃricos e culturais propostos por Hall (2006) e Sanches (2000). / This work aims at showing how the tropicalist text breaks with the structure of traditional texts. For that purpose, we characterize the traditional narrativity and show how this rupture happens in the tropicalist positioning through the description of the procedures used in the non-structuring process of tropicalist texts as well as the factors that create the deconstruction in the song scenes. This research is grounded in the French Discourse Analysis developed by Dominique Maingueneau (2001), enhancing important concepts as scenography, genre and language codes, intertextuality and interdiscursivity, and in the Literomusical Discourse developed by Costa (2001). In the analysis we rely on the studies of Adam and Revaz (1996) about the narrativity conception based on a canonical model, according to the following structure: initial situation, transformation and final situation. According to this structure, we explored the relation between the text and its production conditions in analyzing the aspects which permit us the verification of how the narrativity rupture happens in the tropicalist movement from the Military Dictatorship, from the Post-Modernity historical process, and from its conception of subject, among other socio-historical and cultural aspects proposed by Hall (2006) and Sanches (2000).

Individuals began to communicate without the necessity for physical movement and were able to share interests, dreams and affinities through the digital environment. This research proposes a study of the constitution of the Polyvore website that deals with fashion and an analysis of aesthetic modifications that change fashion from this social network, the formation of aesthetic standards about fashion and relationships between people and fashion today from this website. The consumer market has become more diverse to meet the desires of the people and particularly the fashion market was also influenced by these new relationships developed within the internet and then, the social networks allowed a narrowing in the relationship between individuals. So, on fashion, the website Polyvore found users and market to operate with a fashion platform. To support this research, it were used the works of Castells, Musso, Parente and Santaella to explain the structure of the network for the development of Social Networks . On the studies about consumption of fashion information through the concepts of subjectivity and playfulness we used the works of Huizinga on the playful; Simmel, Pitombo, Mesquita and among others to analyze the playful vocation of fashion. For concepts involving subjectivity, it were used the reflections of Deleuze, Guattari, Santaella and Mesquita. On the analysis of social network Polyvore were explored the concepts of narrativity based on the work of Murray; for niche culture the references were the works about tribalism from Maffesoli and The Long Tail from Anderson and for the phenomenon of gamification, we used the thoughts of Lemos and Santaella and the testimonials of users. It was concluded from the study that social networks are still in full development and every day new platforms appears to attend the desires and interests of the users. Through the study of Polyvore, we observed that Polyvore has established itself as a major information center for fashion companies. In the investigation of the functioning of Polyvore , we realized that three major phenomena are developed by users and by the tools of the website: narrativity, culture niche and gamification / web 2.0 aliada a estrutura das redes modificou as relações entre as pessoas na sociedade contemporânea. Os indivíduos passaram a se comunicar sem a necessidade de deslocamento físico e puderam compartilhar interesses, sonhos e afinidades através do ambiente digital. A presente pesquisa propõem um estudo da constituição do website Polyvore que trata da moda e uma análise das modificações estéticas que alteram a moda a partir desta rede social, da formação de padrões estéticos sobre moda e das relações entre as pessoas e a moda nos dias de hoje a partir deste website. O mercado consumidor tornou-se mais diversificado para atender aos desejos das pessoas e, particularmente, o mercado da moda também foi influenciado por estas novas relações desenvolvidas dentro da internet e assim, criaram-se as redes sociais que possibilitaram um estreitamento nos relacionamento entre os indivíduos. Desta forma, na moda, o website Polyvore encontrou usuários e mercado para atuar com uma plataforma de moda. No suporte à pesquisa estão as obras de Castells, Musso, Parente e Santaella ao se tratar da estrutura da Redes para o desenvolvimento das Redes Sociais. Nos estudos relativos ao consumo da informação de moda através dos conceitos de ludicidade e subjetividade utilizou-se as obras de Huizinga sobre o lúdico; Simmel, Pitombo, Mesquita e entre outros para analisar a vocação lúdica da moda. Para os conceitos que envolvem a subjetividade, foram utilizada as reflexões de Deleuze, Guattari, Santaella e Mesquita. Na análise da rede social Polyvore foram explorados os conceitos de narratividade com base na obra de Murray; para a cultura de nicho as referências foram os trabalhos de tribalismo de Maffesoli e A Cauda Longa de Anderson e para o fenômeno de gamification, utilizou-se os pensamentos de Lemos e Santaella e os depoimentos dos usuários. Concluiu-se a partir do estudo que as redes sociais ainda estão em pleno desenvolvimento e a cada dia são apresentadas novas plataformas para atender aos anseios e interesses dos usuários. Através do estudo do Polyvore, observamos que o Polyvore consolidou-se como uma grande central de informações para as empresas de moda. Na investigação do funcionamento do Polyvore, percebemos que três grandes fenômenos são desenvolvidos pelos usuários e pelas ferramentas disponbilizadas: a narratividade, a cultura de nicho e o gamification

This work by Ana Miranda is a narrative construction based on confluences and tensions, created by various discourses, transiting on the frontiers between the historical universe and the history, that bring out lived and felt experiences, grouped in the vast imaginary in which the own poet and his work. The mirandian romanesque discourse will be observed here, in its enunciation, in the transfigurative reconstitution, in its narrativity that crosses the historical and social dimensions in its transcritical enterprise. It is intended, therefore, to investigate, in the discourse of transcreation and transfiguration, based on the presuppositions of theorists such as: Mikhail Bakhtin, Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, Homi Bhabha, Haroldo de Campos, Gérard Genette, Julio Plaza, Linda Hutcheon, others, that instrumentalize our critical discourse in the three chapters of this dissertation, being that in the first one we pointed out how Miranda did emerge the subject narrated by the procedures of its fictional language; and in the second, we dwell on the meanderings of the historiographical metafiction and, in the third, the approaches go back to what was used throughout the dissertation, ascertaining the discursive strategies in which Ana Miranda translates Gregório de Matos Guerra in its multiple dimensions, as central character of his romance. / Neste trabalho, tem-se como objeto de estudo, o romance, Boca do Inferno, de Ana Miranda, adotando como foco a análise interpretativa os influxos da voz narradora em sua imersão, na busca do sujeito icônico: Gregório de Matos Guerra, sua figura controversa; a singularidade de seu estilo, que conferem à sua obra poética importância ímpar para a Literatura Brasileira. Esta obra de Ana Miranda é uma construção narrativa realizada a partir de confluências e tensões, criadas por discursos vários, transitando nas fronteiras entre o universo histórico e o historial, que fazem aflorar experiências vividas e sentidas, agrupadas no vasto imaginário no qual é convertido o próprio poeta e sua obra. O discurso romanesco mirandiano será observado aqui, em sua enunciação, na reconstituição transfigurativa, em sua narratividade que atravessa as dimensões, histórica e social em sua empresa transcriativa. Pretende-se, portanto, investigar, no discurso da transcriação e transfiguração, com base nos pressupostos de teóricos como: Mikhail Bakhtin, Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, Homi Bhabha, Haroldo de Campos, Gérard Genette, Julio Plaza, Linda Hutcheon, além de outros, que instrumentalizam nosso discurso crítico nos três capítulos desta dissertação, sendo que no primeiro apontamos como Miranda fez emergir o sujeito narrado pelos procedimentos de sua linguagem ficcional; e no segundo, nos detemos nos meandros da metaficção historiográfica e, no terceiro, as abordagens remontam ao que foi empregado ao longo da dissertação averiguando as estratégias discursivas nas quais Ana Miranda traduz Gregório de Matos Guerra em suas dimensões múltiplas, como personagem central do seu romance.

Esta tese apresenta estudos interpretativos sobre as obras musicais compostas pelo autor durante seu doutoramento: Introverso (piano), Ao Pó (clarinete em si , trombone, violoncelo, piano), Breviário das Narrativas Absurdas (vibrafone, piano), Coisas Pelo Ar (piano), O Desvão (2 clarinetes em si, clarone, piano), Epopeia Fantástica (oboé, trombone, percussão, violino, contrabaixo). A partir de uma perspectiva teórica hermenêutica, é realizada uma adaptação do conceito de narrativa musical a essas obras, alicerçando-a em extensa revisão bibliográfica sobre o assunto e estabelecendo procedimentos metodológicos para a elaboração de interpretações narrativas desse repertório. O objetivo geral do trabalho é conceber e fundamentar teoricamente interpretações que possam ser consideradas como transformadoras conceituais da música e continuadoras do processo composicional do autor. Esses procedimentos são complementados com definições reflexivas sobre o processo composicional, enfatizando o viés criativo e performático da disciplina ‘análise musical’. Assim, o produto desta tese pode ser dividido em três categorias: reflexão crítica sobre obras musicais compostas durante o curso de doutorado (apresentadas aqui em partitura e gravação audiovisual); interpretação analítica e narrativa dessas obras; fundamentação teórica e metodológica dessa interpretação. As três categorias são consideradas como complementares e imprescindíveis para o cumprimento dos objetivos desta tese, a qual o autor oferece como contribuição a debates pertinentes e correntes nas áreas de composição e teoria da música. / This thesis presents interpretive studies on musical works composed by the author during his doctoral studies. From a hermeneutical perspective, the concept of musical narrative was adapted to the analytical necessities found in these works. This adaptation includes extensive bibliographic review on the issue of musical narrative; it establishes methodological procedures for the elaboration of analytical/narrative interpretations for this repertoire. The overall objective of this thesis is to conceive and substantiate theoretically these interpretations, considering them as conceptual and transformative actions on the music, and therefore a continuation of the author’s compositional process. For this purpose, the abovementioned procedures were complemented with reflexive definitions regarding this compositional process, emphasizing the creative and performing bias of musical analysis. Thus, the product of this thesis may be divided into three categories: publication and critical reflection on the musical compositions created during this doctorate (presented here as scores and audiovisual recordings); analytical and narrative interpretations of these works; implementation of theoretical and methodological foundations for these interpretations. These three categories are seen as complementary and indispensable for the purposes of this thesis, which is meant by its author as a consistent contribution for the current debates on musical composition and musical theory. The following compositions are included in this thesis: Introverso (piano), Ao Pó (B clarinet, trombone, violoncello, piano), Breviário das Narrativas Absurdas (vibraphone, piano), Coisas Pelo Ar (piano), O Desvão (2 B clarinets, bass clarinet, piano), Epopeia Fantástica (oboe, trombone, percussion, violin, double bass).

This thesis is about the heritage in Vientiane. In an attempt to go beyond a more traditional descriptive approach, the study aims at bringing forward a discussion about the definition, or rather the multiplicity of definitions, of the concept of heritage as such. The unavoidabe tension emanating from a modern western frame of thought being applied to the geographical and cultural setting of the study provides an opportunity to develop a criticism of some of the assumptions underlying our current definitions of heritage. For this particular study, heritage is defined as to include stories, places and things. It is a heritage that is complex and ambiguous, because the stories are parallel, the definitions and perceptions of place are manifold and contested, and the things and their meaning appear altered, depending on what approach to materiality is used. The objective is not to propose how to identify and manage such a complex heritage. Rather, it is about what causes this complexity and ambiguity and what is in between the stories, places and things. In addition, the study aims to critically deconstruct the contemporary heritage discourse, which privileges material authenticity, form and fabric and the idea that heritage values are universal and should be preserved for the future and preferably forever. In Laos, Buddhism dominates as religious practice. In this context, the notion of material impermanence also governs the perception of reality. Approaches to materiality in Buddhism are related to the general ideas that things are important from a contemporary perspective and primarily as containers for spiritual values, that the spiritual values carry the connection to the past, and that heritage is primarily spiritual in nature and has little to do with physical structure and form. By exploring the concepts of restoration, destruction and consumption in such a perspective, we understand that preservation and restoration are active processes of materialisation. We also understand that destruction and consumption are necessary for the appreciation of certain heritage expressions, and that heritage is being constantly created. With this understanding, this book is an argument for challenging contemporary western heritage discourse and question its fundamental ideology of preservationism.

Disertacijoje nagrinėjama vaizdo naratyvumo problema. Analizės objektas – žymaus lietuvių dailininko Šarūno Saukos tapyba. Š. Saukos paveikslai atrodo esą siužetiški, pasakojantys istorijas, nors šios numanomos istorijos dažniausiai neturi žodinių provaizdžių, galinčių tapti interpretacijos šaltiniu. Todėl paveikslai tampa atviri pačių suvokėjų kuriamiems pasakojimams: vaizduojamos situacijos, dažnai primenančios nesuprantamus ir nerimą keliančius ritualus, provokuoja juos aiškinti pasitelkiant įsivaizduojamas istorijas. Tačiau ar kuria pasakojimus patys paveikslai? Ar galima rasti naratyvumo ženklus pačiame tekste, pačioje paveikslo struktūroje, neprimetant jam savo pasakojimo? Kokia naratyvumo samprata gali papildyti vizualių tekstų suvokimą, užuot spraudusi juos į siaurus sąvokos rėmus? Kokiu būdu Š. Saukos paveikslai geba pasakoti istorijas? Atsakymo į šiuos klausimus disertacijoje ieškoma pasitelkiant prancūzų semiotiką ir naratologiją. Formuluojamos teorinės ir metodologinės statiško vaizdo naratyvumo analizės gairės, naratyvumą siejant ne tik su gebėjimu pavaizduoti laikinę seką, bet ir su numanomomis transformacijomis, naratyvinės gramatikos dėsniais bei pasakojimo akto dalyvių (pasakotojo ir jo adresato) komunikacija. Analizuojant Š. Saukos darbus, ryškinami pasakojimo kūrimo mechanizmai, atskleidžiamos skirtingos žiūrovo dalyvavimo paveiksle formos, pasakotojo pasirodymo strategijos, horizontalus ir vertikalus tapybos naratyvumo matmenys. / The dissertation explores the problem of visual narrativity. The object of the analysis are the works of the famous Lithuanian painter Šarūnas Sauka. Š. Sauka‘s paintings clearly seem to tell stories, although they are rarely based on any verbal stories that could serve as a source for interpretation. Instead, they are open to a wide range of individual interpretations: the viewers are provoked to narrativize the paintings by inventing stories that could explain the depicted scenes, which would otherwise remain mysterious and incomprehensible. But do the paintings themselves tell stories? Is it possible to trace narrativity in the very structure of the paintings? What concept of narrativity may be efficiently employed to analyze and understand visual texts? By what means Š. Sauka’s paintings are able to tell stories? The dissertation examines these questions by employing the French semiotics and narratology. The theoretic and methodological guidelines for the analysis of visual narrativity are formulated, linking it not only to the depiction of temporal sequences, but also to the implied transformations, to the laws of narrative grammar, and to the communication of the participants of the narrating act (the narrator and his addressee). In Š. Sauka’s paintings, the narrative strategies are elaborated by revealing the horizontal and the vertical dimensions of pictorial narrativity, as well as by examining the viewer’s and the narrator’s roles in the paintings.
