A pedra da lua: contos de Machado de Assis reunidos em Papéis avulsos e Várias histórias / The lunar stone: tales of Machado de Assis gathered in Separate Sheets and Several StoriesSara Alice Costa Cavalcanti 01 July 2013 (has links)
Fundação Carlos Chagas Filho de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro / Machado de Assis, nas coletâneas de contos intituladas Papéis avulsos e Várias histórias, faz repetidas alusões à ficção e ao fazer ficcional, o que leva a pensar na possibilidade da escolha intencional de um eixo temático que percorra as narrativas, permitindo que sejam lidas na compreensão dessa intencionalidade, o que confere ao conjunto uma característica autorreferencial. As evocações de Diderot, Merimée e Edgar Allan Poe nessas famílias de contos situam literariamente um entendimento da ficção que a distingue do engano e da fraude, ao mesmo tempo em que não nega sua força e variedade de usos, enquanto supõe futuros e por vezes obscuros caminhos para os prazeres da sensação estética. No decorrer desta Tese procuro provar que o autor escolhe a narrativa curta para discorrer sobre o fazer ficcional, sendo esse tema um a mais dentre outros, apuradamente ordenados em camadas que não apenas se superpõem, mas interpenetram e reafirmam variadas vertentes de fios narrativos. Machado conta histórias, enquanto trata do próprio ato de contar, dos efeitos e da necessidade da ficção enquanto isso, reafirma-a como instrumento para a intelectualidade, num mundo onde a objetividade cartesiana já não supõe os olhos como fiéis receptores da realidade, mas precisa de outras maneiras de ver e de sentir / Machado de Assis, in the series of short stories entitled Separate Sheets and Several Stories, makes repeated allusions to fiction and fictional deeds, which leads us to consider the possibility of intentional choice of a thematic axis which flows through the narratives, allowing the intentionality of the plots to be read and clearly understood, bestowing a referential characteristic on the whole set. The evocations of these clusters of tales done by Diderot, Merimée and Edgar Allan Poe lie literally on the perception that distinguishes between deceit and fraud, at the same time they dont deny the strength and variety of uses by cluing about future and, sometimes, obscure paths to the pleasure of aesthetic sensations. Throughout this thesis, I try to prove the author chooses the short narrative to discourse upon fictional deeds, and this theme is a plus among others, and accurately arranged in layers that not only overlap, but interpenetrate and reaffirm different strands of the narrative web. Machado tells stories while dealing with the very act of fact-reporting - the effects and necessity of fiction. Meanwhile, he reaffirms it as a tool for the intelligentsia, in a world where the Cartesian objectivity, no longer, regards eyes as faithful receivers of reality, but the fact that we need other ways of seeing and feeling

A Cut KiteJanuary 2014 (has links)
abstract: A Cut Kite, a collection of linked stories about a Nepali family haunted by the past, examines the anatomy of troubled hearts. In these lyric tales, characters often seek love, but they end up finding it in the unlikeliest of places: in a moth darting toward a candle flame in a dark house, in the middle of a barrage of blows, in the seething currents, ruthless and forgetful. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.F.A. English 2014

Portland and Other StoriesCopelin, Amy 01 January 2016 (has links)
The collection of short stories explores relationships. Sometimes characters’ secret longings, fantasies, and frustrations drive them to make unusual choices or to fixate on inappropriate people and solutions to their problems. Some characters are sidelined by their inabilities to make their most important needs known to those closest to them. Miscommunication or failing to be understood is a common thread throughout.

Out of View: StoriesBendell, Justin 03 November 2014 (has links)
OUT OF VIEW is a collection of stories set in the American Southwest about people coping with loss—the death of parents, children, ideals, innocence.
The characters in this collection reap or resist lessons of life as they struggle to find their place in the world. In “First Rain,” 15-year-old Tessie struggles with the loss of her father and the demands of her mother as she navigates the rocky terrain of adolescence. In “Monsters,” middle-aged Maury has to choose between a new relationship and protecting the well-being of his 4-year-old ‘daughter.’ The stories are influenced by the Western realism of Maile Meloy and the playful plotting of Ron Carlson.
These stories are inspired both by the Sonoran Desert—expansive, sun-soaked, unrepentant—and by the people who live, love, and lose in the interstices between Manifest Destiny and the Reconquista.

Rubem Braga : a simbiose jornalística e literária /Rodrigues, Tchiago Inague. January 2012 (has links)
Orientador: Ana Maria Carlos / Banca: Wellington Ricardo Fioruci / Banca: Álvaro Santos Simões Junior / Resumo: Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar o primeiro livro do escritor-jornalista Rubem Braga (1913-1990), O conde e o passarinho, coletânea de crônicas publicadas em 1936. No decorrer da vida, o escritor capixaba ficou marcado por escrever para jornais quase que exclusivamente textos de crônicas, muitas delas publicadas, posteriormente, em coletâneas ao longo dos anos, inclusive após a sua morte. Nosso estudo buscou respaldo tanto nas teorias literárias a respeito do gênero crônica, sobre suas características, história e processo de "adaptação" no Brasil, como na fortuna crítica do cronista. A análise crítico-interpretativa do corpus procurou evidenciar as estratégias textuais empregadas pelo autor e o diálogo que, muitas vezes, se estabelecia entre os textos da obra. Desse modo, partindo dessas categorias analíticas, tentamos ressaltar as questões mais significativas do objeto artístico estudado, sobretudo a recorrência de alguns temas em seus textos, como a defesa aos menos favorecidos, a descrição da mulher brasileira e seus comentários sobre leis e notícias da época. Também buscamos abordar e analisar as personagens presentes na antologia, bem como destacar as referências culturais utilizadas pelo autor, sejam elas literárias, musicais ou cinematográficas e, por fim, apontar o recurso frequente à metalinguagem na construção de parte das crônicas. A partir desse recorte, nossa análise buscou compreender os aspectos sociais, econômicos e políticos da década de 1930, sobretudo porque a crônica, gênero híbrido, caracteriza-se por transitar entre as esferas do jornalismo e da literatura e também entre o particular, o tempo vivido pelo cronista, e o universal, que permite ao cronista explorar a essência humana / Abstract: This study aims to analyze the first book of the writer-journalist Rubem Braga (1913- 1990), O conde e o passarinho, a collection of chronicles published in 1936. Throughout life, the writer from Espirito Santo State was marked by writing for newspapers almost exclusively chronicles, many of them published later in collections over the years, even after his death. Our study sought support both the literary theories about the chronic gender, on its characteristics, history and process of "adaptation" in Brazil, as in the critical fortune of the chronicler. The critical interpretive analysis of the corpus sought to highlight the textual strategies employed by the author and the dialogue that often was established between the texts of the work. Thus, from these analytical categories, we have tried to highlight the most significant issues of the artistic object studied, especially the recurrence of certain themes in his writings, as the defense of the underprivileged, the description of Brazilian women and his comments on laws and news of the that time. We also tried to address and analyze the characters present in the anthology as well as to highlight the cultural references used by the author, whether literary, musical or cinematographic ones and, finally, to point out the frequent recourse to metalanguage in building part of the chronicles. From this side view, our analysis sought to understand the social, economic and political aspects of the 1930s, mainly because chronic, a hybrid genre, is characterized by transitions between the spheres of journalism and literature and also between the private, the time experienced by the chronicler, and the universal, which allows the chronicler to explore the human essence / Mestre
