This thesis explores the poetics of editing in the films and multimedia works of Chris Marker. From his first essay films of the 1950s to his 1998 CD-ROM Immemory, the director’s work has attracted critical attention for its beauty and originality of expression. Much existing analysis engages with this work in terms of its subject matter and themes and their relationship with its associational, rather than linear, narrative form, with relatively little focus on the stylistics of Marker’s editing. While questions of the director’s thematic concerns also arise in my study, I argue that Marker’s contribution to cinema and the visual arts cannot be fully appreciated without a systematic understanding of his stylistics—his expressive use of cinematic forms and patterns. In developing such an understanding, this thesis utilises the work of a number of film writers explicitly concerned with the expressive use of cinematic space and time. From Andr?? Bazin, I take the idea of rapprochement to mean the way the comparison between two juxtaposed events or images suggests or expresses the meaning of their juxtaposition. From Jean-Andr?? Fieschi, I draw on the idea that the dialectical interaction of the plastic, formal and narrative elements of a film gives meaning to its cinematic space and time. My approach synthesises and builds upon both ideas for its account of the stylistics of Marker’s work. Starting with a preliminary analysis of one cinematic comparison in The Case of the Grinning Cat (2004), I then consider Marker’s exploration of the imaginative potential of a single image sequence in The Last Bolshevik (1993). After this, I explore examples of the stylistic figure of rapprochement in Letter from Siberia (1958), and the stylistic figure of transformation in Sunless (1982). The thesis then studies articulations of rapprochement and transformation in the museum installations Zapping Zone: Proposals for an Imaginary Television (1991), Silent Movie (1995) and the CD-ROM Immemory.

The aim of this thesis is editorial treatment of Memoirs, which was written by Karel Kojecký in the 1950s-1970s. Part of the thesis will be in addition to editorial note also linguistic and stylistic analysis of the text. Author of Memoirs comes from Kroměřížsko, the analysis will therefore also include the characteristics of the dialect, which he uses in the book.

Este trabalho pretende elaborar uma análise estilística da obra \"A terceira margem do rio\", de João Guimarães Rosa. O levantamento, a análise e interpretação dos recursos formais utilizados no conto operam com os conceitos de adaptação e inadaptação, que caracterizam o narrador como um personagem ambíguo, um homem de dois mundos. Este trabalho não faz nenhum recorte quanto aos níveis de língua estudados (nível fonológico, lexical, morfológico, frasal, enunciativo) e, abordando o conceito de convergência estilística, procura seguir, linha a linha, os fatos expressivos presentes no conto, flagrando, assim, a intensidade poética que existe na prosa rosiana. Na primeira parte da dissertação, expõem-se os pressupostos teóricos e metodológicos da análise estilística por nós empreendida e alguns aspectos relativos à situação da obra de Guimarães Rosa dentro da literatura brasileira. Ainda nessa parte, justifica-se a estrutura do trabalho e se verificam algumas características sobre a obra a que pertence o conto estudado. A segunda parte, dedicada à análise estilística propriamente dita, estuda os efeitos de adaptação e inadaptação, que compreende três momentos da narrativa: 1) a sensação de normalidade e adaptação às normas e convenções presentes nas margens lógicas da sociedade racional; 2) os tons de perplexidade do narrador diante do mistério e da escolha de \"nosso pai\"; 3) o sentimento do trágico e os tons de melancolia do narrador diante de sua culpa. Na conclusão, são retomados alguns fatos estilísticos analisados e algumas contribuições dos ensaios que nortearam a interpretação proposta. / The objective of this dissertation is to elaborate a stylistic analysis of the narrative \"A terceira margem do Rio\", by João Guimarães Rosa. The research, analysis and interpretation of the form components used in the story prove the validity of the adaptation and inadaptation concepts that characterize the narrator as an ambiguous character. This essay does not exclude any of the levels of the language studied (phonologic, lexical, morphologic, phrasal and enunciative) and, considering the stylistic confluence concept, tends to pursue, point by point, the expressive facts of the story, showing the poetic intensity that exists in Guimarães Rosa\'s prose. In the first part of the dissertation, the theoric and methodological stylistic analyses that we use in this study and some aspects related to the situation of Rosas\'s story inside the Brazilian literature are exposed. Still in this part, the work structure is justified and some characteristics about the oeuvre which this story belongs to are verified. The second part, dedicated to the stylistic analysis itself, studies the effects of adaptation and inadaptation (unsuitableness) that appear in the three moments of the narrative: 1) the sense of normality and adaptation to the rules and convention present in the logical edges of the rational society; 2) the narrator perplexity tones ahead of the mystery and the chosen of \"nosso pai\"; 3) the tragic feeling and the melancholic tones of the narrator, caused by his guilt. In the conclusion, some analyzed stylistic facts and some contribution of the essays that guided the proposed interpretation are recapitulated.

The aim of the thesis is to provide a comprehensive view of the works of Samuel Beckett from the beginning to the novel Molloy. It is based on analysis of individual works and the subsequent attempt to uncover their interconnections. The thesis is divided into three parts: theory, poetry and prose. The first part deals mainly with the concept of incoherent reality which Beckett speaks about for the first time in his essay Proust and then returns to in other texts. In the novel Dream of Fair to Middling Women he makes it the basis of his own aesthetic. Behind the phenomena of the outer world lies chaos and nothingness and the artist's task is to integrate it into his work. The second part discusses the changes in the subject of the poems, his being or not being in particular surroundings, the amount of literary allusions, the themes and the form of the poems, above all the particular techniques Beckett uses and the degree of their regularity and elaboration. The third part raises similar questions about prose. The unquestionable centre of Beckett's poems and prose is the subject of the poems and the main character, characterized by tension between inside and outside. The change in the character is caused by outweighing of the tendency to stay inside. This also results in the reduction in allusions...

The purpose of this study, ve to analyze the stylistic characteristics in the unaccompanied music of one twentieth century composer, Francis Poulenc, in order to discover the choral problems which would confront choruses and conductors as they performed his music. It is hoped that this study will not only enable choral conductors to better understand, interpret, and appreciate the music of Poulenc, but also will serve as a guide toward the investigation of other twentieth century composers and their works.

Este trabalho apresenta análises estilísticas e espaciais da arte rupestre de cerca de cem abrigos do alto-médio São Francisco (norte mineiro e sudoeste baiano), desenvolvidas com o objetivo de elaborar um quadro crono-estilístico do registro rupestre regional que possa subsidiar estudos de correlação entre seqüências estratigráficas e seqüências estilísticosucessórias. As análises tomaram por base as classificações existentes para a arte rupestre do Brasil Central e da região (tradições Agreste, São Francisco, Nordeste e Complexo Montalvânia), visando a discutir a operacionalidade da metodologia classificatória vigente e o alcance interpretativo destas categorias de análise. As análises resultaram na definição de diversos estilos sucessivos, sendo alguns deles possivelmente contemporâneos. A seqüência sucessória estilística foi comparada à seqüência estratigráfica regional, utilizando as datações absolutas e relativas disponíveis para balizar uma periodização inicial da arte rupestre do norte mineiro. Essa periodização - ainda hipotética em função das datações disponíveis se referirem a apenas dois dos doze estilos identificados - mostra que a arte rupestre do Holoceno médio responde por vários estilos associados, que não podem ser seguramente organizados em seqüência sucessória e que podem ter sido praticados em contemporaneidade. O estudo da variação estilística nas dimensões gráfica, temporal e espacial (em pequena e grande escala) mostrou que estilos distintos por critérios temáticos interconectam-se e articulam-se em outras dimensões. A observação de diferenças relevantes entre estilos, relativas a atributos temáticos, localização dos painéis nos abrigos e dos abrigos na paisagem regional, sugere a existência concomitante de repertórios temáticos complementares na arte rupestre do Holoceno médio, integrando um complexo sistema de representações visuais. O estudo sugere que a utilização da usual categoria “tradição" como parâmetro de análise dificulta, em vez de favorecer, a organização do registro rupestre, na medida em que direciona a pesquisa para os padrões de similaridade. Em análises focadas nestes padrões, os contrastes e as diferenças entre expressões são mascarados e ofuscados. Expressões estilísticas tematicamente distintas podem estar conectadas de modo complementar, tornando necessário investigar as relações entre estilos caracterizados por temáticas distintas, avaliando suas semelhanças e dissimilaridades, antes de atribuí-los a tradições também distintas / This work is the result of a research in rock art stylistics and space analyses of about one hundred shelters from the region of Alto-médio São Francisco (north of the brazilian state of Minas Gerais and southwest of the state of Bahia), with the objective of elaborating a chrono-stylistic relative picture of the regional rock-art register that could support correlational studies of stratrigraphics and successory stylistics sequences. The analyses developed were based on the existing rock art classifications of Central Brazil and region(Agreste, São Francisco, Nordeste and Complexo Montalvânia traditions), and were aimed at discussing the operationality of the given classificatory methodology and the interpretative reach of these categories of analysis. The stylistics and space diachronic analyses resulted in the definition of diverse successive styles, some of them possibly contemporaries. The successory stylistic sequence was compared to the regional stratigraphic sequence using the absolute and relative datings available as bollards to develop an initial rock-art periodization of the northern region of the state of Minas Gerais. This periodization – still hypothetical, once the the available datings are related to only two of the twelve identified styles – shows that the middle Holocen rock art stands for several associated styles that cannot be surely organized in a successory sequence and that might have been practiced at the same time. The study of the stylistic variation in its graphical, temporal and spacial aspects (in small and great scale) has showed that styles that are considered distinct because of thematic criteria in fact interconnect and articulate each other in other dimensions. The observation of relevant differences between styles, as well as of oppositions between the thematic attributes of localization in the shelters and the shelters in the regional landscape, suggests the simultaneous existence of complementary thematic repertoires in the middle Holocen rock art, composing a complex system of visual representations. The study suggests that, instead of improving the organization of the rock art register, the use of rock-art traditions as a parameter for analysis makes this organization more difficult, in as much as it directs the research to standards of similarity. In analyses focused in these standards, the contrasts and the differences between expressions are masked and dimmed. Thematicly distinct stylistics expressions can be connected in important and complementary ways, making it necessary to investigate the relations between styles characterized by distinct thematic characteristics and to evaluate their oppositions and disimilarities before attributing them to distinct traditions.

Rosa. Articula-se a proposta de uma análise estilística do texto com a interpretação de cunho psicanalítico, sobretudo a partir de Freud. Situa-se, primeiramente, a relação entre este estudo e a fortuna crítica da obra selecionada, discutindo aspectos relevantes dos trabalhos de outros estudiosos. Ao abordar a relação entre o foco narrativo e o protagonista e utilizando-se de indicações do próprio Guimarães Rosa presentes em outras obras e em correspondências com seus tradutores, utiliza-se a metáfora do badalar de um sino como homólogo aos movimentos internos e externos de Soropita, sobretudo em torno da questão da manutenção do recalque como forma de preservar sua estabilidade social e pessoal. Esta dissertação reflete ainda sobre uma possível disposição melancólica de Soropita, além de estudar aspectos significativos do amor entre este personagem e sua esposa, Doralda, que mantém relação com a dinâmica do recalque. Aponta-se, por fim, para o caráter cíclico e inconcluso da presente narrativa, como sendo sua marca distintiva, não havendo, no nível do personagem principal, solução possível para seus dilemas. As questões histórico-sociais, pertinentes ao contexto abarcado pela novela, também serão articuladas ao estudo do estilo e à problemática psicanalítica abordada. / The present essay examines the novel Dão-Lalalão, by author João Guimarães Rosa, from Minas Gerais. It articulates the proposal of a stylistic analysis of the text with the interpretation of psychoanalytic nature, especially from Freud. It is placed, first, the relationship between this study and the critical fortune of the selected work, discussing relevant aspects of other scholars works. In addressing the relationship between the narrative focus and the protagonist and using Guimarães Rosas own indications present in other works and correspondence with his translators, it is used the metaphor of the chime of a bell as correlation with the internal and external movements of Soropita especially around the issue of maintenance of repression as a means of preserving his social and personal stability. This work still reflects on a possible melancholic disposition of Soropita, in addition to study significant aspects of love between this character and his wife, Doralda, which maintains relationship with the dynamics of repression. It points out, finally, to the cyclical and inconclusive nature of the present narrative, as its distinguishing mark, do not existing to the level of the main character, possible solution to his dilemmas. The historical and social issues, relevant to the context covered by the novel, will also be articulated to the study of the style and to the psychoanalytic problematic issues considered.
