Resumo: A dissertação analisará construções imagéticas e estilísticas do escritor português José Saramago nas obras Os Poemas Possíveis (1966), Provavelmente Alegria (1970) e O Ano de 1993(1975), procurando estabelecer as diferenças e semelhanças entre as três obras mencionadas, tendo como foco o percurso figurativo e temático dos poemas, por meio da atenção ao rigor da construção, à tipologia dos versos e seus padrões rítmicos, aos campos semânticos e efeitos estilísticos. A dissertação também procurou estabelecer as relações entre lirismo e descrição; contenção irônica e fixação pelo problema limiar da arte e da poesia apresentadas pelo eu-lírico; uso de recursos retórico-poéticos; relação com arquétipos e mitos da memória coletiva; recortes epigramáticos; atributos simbólicos de conceitos chave (por exemplo: mar, terra, pedra, silêncio, palavra); construção da paisagem e seus componentes recorrentes (luz, sombra, água, terra, árvores, corpo), com vistas a compor o rol de motivos característicos à obra em análise. A análise, portanto, procurou realizar uma leitura que apreendeu as figuras de linguagem, a criação de imagens oníricas e a presença de conteúdos temáticos que atualizam assuntos de um repertório universal, com vistas a compor uma síntese das formas, imagens e temas recorrentes responsáveis pela configuração da linha poética do autor nas três obras consideradas, apontando nelas linhas convergentes e variantes
Abstract: The dissertation analyzed the imagery and stylistic construction of José Saramago in Os Poemas Possíveis, Provavelmente Alegria and O Ano de 1993, aiming to establish differences and similarities between the three poetic works of José Saramago apart from focusing on the figurative and thematic itinerary of the poems through the attention given to rigor of construction, typology of the verses and its rhythmical patterns, semantic field and stylistic effects. The present dissertation sought to draw a parallel between lirism and description, ironic contention, fixation by the problem of threshold of art and poetry suggested by self-lyric; use of rhetorical-poetic resources; relationships with archetypes and myths of collective memory, epigrams; symbolic attributes to key concepts (sea, earth, rock, silence, word) the construction of landscape and its components (light, shadow, water, earth, trees, body), with the objective of showing the range of motives typical of the works mentioned. Therefore, the dissertation also analyzed the language, the creation of oniric images and the presence of thematic contents which may refer to subjects of a universal repertoire, aiming to compose a synthesis of forms, images and recurrent themes responsible for the poetic trait of Saramago in his three poetic works, pointing out convergent and variant characteristics

Full textIn this dissertation, we present the results of a research that approaches the semiotic theory and literature. The study chooses as its subject the short-story Menina a caminho, from the Brazilian contemporary author Raduan Nassar. In order to make explicit the building of the text meaning, we have as approach the French semiotic theory. Through the tools offered by this theory, we can understand the means and meaning effects produced by the short-story enunciator that are responsible for the high aesthetic and literary quality of his text.

Full textThe main objective of this study is to identify the mechanisms which are responsible for the image of doubt´s construction within the subjectivity in Machado de Assis\'s short prose through the analysis of a few of his short stories. It will find the doubt as a sense effect in its probable recurrences, while attempting to map out what has been hypothetically called \"the grammar of possibility\" in the works of Machado de Assis. This research follows a path with two approaches: a theoretical one and a practical one. The first one is focused in identifying the specific semiotic aspects in a few types of discourses, to characterize the aesthetics of Realistic-Naturalistic, the Romanticism period and the Machado\'s own. This is justified once the Machadian doubt the main focus of this research will become apparent in the Machado´s dialog established among him and these aesthetics, as well as his era´s common sense: that the doubt is made by a shake-up of on the truths supporting such discourses. In this research, an examination of this dialogue is conducted on the guidance of this typology, once it is semiotically, by the kind of veridictory contract supported by these aesthetics: the objectifying one (Realism-Naturalism); the subjectifying one (Romanticism) and the semiotics one (Machado´s own). This typology will help to identify not only in, but by Machado´s discourse as well; the possiblity of refractions and or reflections of the invested values on each one of these contracts through the study of the sintax-semantic choices in the construction and made by the author himself. The second part of this study is the approach to the short stories according to a reading based on the French-oriented semiotics, discourse analysis notions and the linguist and philosopher Bakhtin´s concepts. In the intersection of these two approaches, the very way a specific characteristic of this kind of \"semiotics\" contract the doubt is achieved in the special project of Machado\'s oeuvre is shown.

Full textIn its beginnings, the French semiotic theory had as its major concern the issues of the intelligible, when Greimas proposed a generative path of meaning capable to comprise many systems of meaning. In the course of time, though, the analysts were defied by issues related to sensibility and affection, which claimed for a place in theory, through texts in which narrative was not central. Claude Zilberberg, in particular, is one of the authors who defends the primacy of the sensibility over intelligibility through the features of which came to be called tensive semiotics. Following this movement both through theory and literature, this dissertation chooses as its subject an experimental novel, Paulo Leminskis Catatau, almost considered an unintelligible work due to its non-linear narrative patterns. We aim to approach this novel through the tensive semiotics theory, proposing some ways for its reading based on the texts iterant strategies and procedures. As Zilberberg finds in Saussures syllabic model a rhythmic system which can be expanded to all semiotic domains, we can find in a novel like Catatau cells or elements which repeat in certain intervals, creating a rule, an orientation, a rhythm at least. In Catatau, this rhythm seems much more to disorganize than to organize the language. It means that its the rhythmic cell interchange that leads the reader to that effect of unintelligibility. Of course that there are more features that reinforce this effect within the novel, as we show along our work. That means that we see Leminskis novel less as a diluted narrative and more as the offspring of some experience only made possible if built upon some persons sensibility, affected by his/her surroundings. On this specific approach we find our means to make explicit the building of the text meaning, which is considered the semiotic theory main goal.

Full textMainly after the 80\'s decade, José Saramago has become one of the acclaimed writers in the Portuguese language literature to conquer considerable appreciation of the literature critique. Nevertheless, he presents a text that is not to be considered one of the most hermetic in the contemporaneous literature which surely contributes to gathering a significant public of readers. Understanding that the narrator of his novels, genre that he has produced the most, responds to this successful blend of public and critique, this research focuses directly to this enunciation instance. Therefore, we investigate the saramaguian narrator from the recognition of two vectors that are considered distinctive form this enunciation instance which were defined as digressive expansion and moralizing concentration. Presenting and detailing the constitution of those two vectors, we defend the possible recognition of a regulated oscillation between both movements. We also expose the narrative and tensive categories which seem to support the digressive expansion and moralizing concentration. Aside from that, we developed an analysis of part of the saramaguian critique fortune, confronting it to our analysis especially when this critique problematizes the extent of modern and traditional quantum in the Portuguese writer`s novels. At last, we defend that the discourse options in the enunciation instance allow us to approximate the developed function by the acting narrator of the ethos of an orator as conceived by the classical rethoric. We verified how the vectors exposed throughout the work dialog with the semiotic category of style. We based our analysis in the novels Memorial do convento (1982) e A caverna (2000) by José Saramago and we used as theoretical reference the French semiotics, born with Saussure, developed by Hjelmslev, imporved by Greimas and, more recently, by Zilberberg.

Full textThis dissertation is a study on the effects of meaning caused by literary works from the perspective of greimasian semiotics. The corpus analyzed more closely Anatomia de um instante by Javier Cercas; They are also analyzed for comparison of the works 23-F: El golpe del CESID, Jesús Palacios, and The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas. Starting with a reflection on the literary object from the point of view of an unscientific meta-language, it created a bridge between the non-scientific metalanguage and the scientific metalanguage of greimasian semiotics, based on the concepts developed in the two dictionaries semiotics. The concepts were complemented by the development of a new line of semiotics, the relevance levels. The corpus was analyzed according to the relevance levels, especially text, object, practice and strategy. The literary meaning effect will be considered as dependent on different levels of relevance and gradually, can a work be established as more or less literary within a continuum.

Though many philosophers and music theorists have admitted the signification of the sublime in music as a possibility, the nature and mechanism of that signification has not yet been treated at length with a methodology familiar to musicians or native to music theory. Within this dissertation I have conducted a survey of the philosophy of the sublime as understood by Edmund Burke (1729 – 1797), Immanuel Kant (1724 – 1804), Friedrich Schiller (1759 – 1805), and Arthur Schopenhauer (1788 – 1860), with references to other contemporary philosophers and writers. The broader influence of the sublime in regards to German-speaking regions and certain musical composers was also considered. I then gathered from the above philosophers’ categories and definitions of the sublime a constellation of objects, qualities, and emotional states associated with the sublime. These functioned as signs or signifiers of the sublime, whose paths of signification were considered or determined with use of semiotics and topic theory, with reference to the work of Danuta Mirka, Raymond Monelle, and Leonard Ratner. Making reference to score examples listed in the list of figures, I implemented these techniques in analyses of Ludwig van Beethoven’s Sonata No. 30 in E Major, Op. 109 and Sonata No. 32 in C, Op. 111 as well as Franz Liszt’s “Mazeppa,” from the Études d’exécution transcendante, “Funerailles” from Harmonies Poétiques et Religieuses III, S. 173, and “Marche funèbre, En mémoire de Maximilian I, Empereur du Mexique” in from Années de pèlerinage III, S.163.

Full textThe work that we propose is guided by two goals: the first one is to gather several matters regarding poetic semiotics, scattered throughout the literature on the subject; the second one is to analyze some poems by Paulo Henriques Britto, contemporary Brazilian poet, from the French semiotics point of view, increasing the number of studies on the contemporary Brazilian poetry, filling the existent gap concerning detailed analysis of the work of an important poet of our times. Despite the substantial growth of semiotic studies, the ones using such theoretical perspective are not many. Thus, our research is also justified because it contributes to the expansion of semiotic analysis of poetry. We rely on the work of some linguists such as Ferdinand de Saussure, in his study on the anagrams (STAROBINSKI, 1978), and Roman Jakobson (1962, 1990, 2004), with his studies on structural and grammatical analysis of poetry. Furthermore, we have studied texts written by semioticians, especially those found in Ensaios de Semiótica Poética, collection organized by Greimas (1975). The reading of texts from the field of the so-called tensive semiotics was also very important. In all cases, we tried to demonstrate how the expression plan was built and, whenever possible, which was its interconnection with the content plan. The corpus selected for our research consists of five poems by Paulo Henriques Britto. They are: I and V, from the group Bonbonnière, O prestidigitador, from the group Três peças circenses (Trovar Claro, 1997), Véspera (Macau, 2003) e \"Para um monumento ao antidepressivo (Tarde, 2007).

Full textAt the present time, one of the most important traits of a poetic creation is the relationship between expression and content in the poem. Starting from the outbreak of the avant-garde aesthetic movements of the 20th century, which sought to break with the traditional discourses and with the canonical forms of verse, the word/sound/image tension has been a constructive vector par excellence of the poetic creation, and visual poetry has been one of the most widespread forms of art in recent decades. This research aims to show that, rather than being a trait of the modern poetic creation, the tension between content and expression and the use of visualization is part of the aesthetic procedures also present in the literary traditions of antiquity, both in the West and the East. This work seeks to recover these original texts from the study of a group of about thirty poems, belonging to the Sanskrit (citrakvya), Greek (technopaignion) and Latin (carmen figuratum) literary traditions. On the one hand, the goal of the study is the translation of the poems into Portuguese, accompanied by critical comments in order to compose an anthology of visual poetry, and on the other hand, based on structural linguistics and French semiotics to analyze the proper configuration of meaning mechanisms of poems from the classic questions about this type of poetic practice as the oppositions between arbitrary vs. motivation; orality vs. writing, and temporality vs. spatiality. Finally, applying the discussed theoretical basis to the studied corpus, we sought to establish a typology to which these poems could be classified.

Full textThis master dissertation is an analysis of Franz Kafka short story \"The Metamorphosis\", based on the scope of French semiotics, as it was built since Algirdas J. Greimas studies until the recent ones, most called as tensive semiotics. The analyses focuses especially some elements proceeded from Gregory\'s metamorphosis, basically transformations involving Samsa\'s familiar drama because of Gregory\'s transformations to an insect. This seems to be real matter involving Kafka\'s short story. In according to our standpoint, this work concentrates in: contractual transformations, actantial relations and modal arrangements, tensive elements that concern the metamorphosis concept, the actantial bonds that determine some ways of Gregory\'s condition in the family, and finally, others secondary but indispensable elements for the analysis. Thus, we expect to contribute to semiotics studies, insofar as Kafka\'s work \"The Metamorphosis\" is quite different from the most ones that have their origin in the Proppean branch of Greimas semiotics. Furthermore, we expect to contribute also to Kafka\'s studies that, as far as we know, do not have yet a semiotic approach.

A tese Dom Casmurro: a encenação de um julgamento resulta de uma pesquisa sobre a adaptação do romance Dom Casmurro, de Machado de Assis, nos filmes Capitu, de Paulo César Saraceni, e Dom, de Moacyr Góes. A teoria semiótica, de Charles Sanders Peirce, principalmente através de Lúcia Santaella, serviu de bússola para a análise crítica. O estudo desenvolve a idéia de que por trás do Dom Casmurro-romance, há um Dom Casmurro-encenação. Helen Caldwell evidencia um Machado de Assis aficionado em Shakespeare. Além disso, críticos como Barreto Filho, Magalhães Júnior, Raimundo Faoro e Massaud Moisés revelam a trajetória do texto machadiano. O romancista foi também crítico teatral e literário, ensaísta, poeta e comediógrafo, razão pela qual seu signo narrativo foi contaminado pelo signo dramático. Em cada capítulo, uma cena possível; em cada cena, frases em forma de rubricas, fazendo do texto um todo de indicações. O leitor mais atento vai perceber que lê enquanto vê um romance virando espetáculo. A partir da visão de Luiz Fernando Ramos sobre as didascálias, e dos espaços flutuantes de Fiona Hugues, as rubricas machadianas são estudadas como um sistema articulado em três núcleos semânticos: a casa reconstruída, como cenário; poética do olhar, como ponto de vista da narração; e a metalinguagem, revelando o livro como paródia de Otelo e a intenção do narrador em torná-lo espetáculo. Tendo como referência tais núcleos, as adaptações fílmicas são tomadas como interpretantes dinâmicos do romance, isto é, como efeitos efetivamente produzidos. Sob a óptica de Thaïs Diniz, o que a análise constata é que os filmes se caracterizam como transcriações. Essas adaptações não são necessariamente miméticas porque têm como horizonte o contexto cultural que constitui o processo de recepção da obra.

Full textRecently, Greimasian semiotics has seen the development of a new position regarding the approach of the universe of meaning. The so-called tensive semiotics, developed mainly by Claude Zilberberg, brings forth the discussion on some issues neither explored nor clarified by Greimas\'s model such as, for instance, the possibility of analyzing sensitive contents along with intelligible contents already contemplated by the canonical generative trajectory of meaning; or still the movement of transvaluation from one level to another. Amid such renewal of the Greimasian model, Zilberberg publishes, in 1986, the article \"Pour introduire le faire missif\" situated in RSSI magazine. Right from the beginning, Zilberberg presents us the concept of le faire missif as an attempt to give syntax its deserved space in semiotics, so that the former would not be seen simply as a mobilizer of semantics, but possessing its own activity. Such concept (le faire missif) is then divided into two basic activities: a remissive (rémissif) one, which would promote the continuity of the process, and an emissive (émissif) one, which would promote the halt of the process. Our research currently moves towards the concept of le faire missif introduced by Claude Zilberberg and its subsequent path in tensive semiotics. Meanwhile, we will make use of literary texts by two contemporary Brazilian writers Delmo Montenegro and Valêncio Xavier for the practical application of the missive activity and other tensive concepts. During our dissertation we will then move in two directions: re-reading and synthesizing the development of the concept of le faire missif in the tensive model and the extents and advantages of its application in literary texts.

Abstract: This thesis presents a comparative analysis between eschatological signs, that is, concerning death, present in Machado de Assis' short stories and in the episodes of the Black Mirror television series. Supported by the theoretical precepts of Umberto Eco's Interpretive Semiotics and encyclopedic-cognitive methodological model, this work introduces an academic discussion, making a critical cut about the brazilian author and the contemporary audiovisual serial narratives typology, to support the analytical approach undertaken. This research main purpose is to confront sign elaboration processes that involve tanatological questions at eight narratives: Nosedive and The Mirror, White Bear and The Secret Cause, San Junipero and The Second Life, and Be Right Back and A Skeleton, from the british program and Machado's literature, respectively. Such reflexive work recognizes the insertion of these productions in a signic continuum, situating them as expressions of their times mentalities in eschatological ways. To concatenate these perceptions, this thesis forges the encyclopedic thinking outlined by the Italian semioticist, launching into the excavation of death, paradise and human attitudes towards the exhaustion of life representations from classical antiquity to the present day, by historical biases, cultural and social aspects, allowing a framework to be created about these signs over time and their resonances.

Supportato dai precetti concettuali della Semiotica Interpretativa e dal modello metodologico enciclopedi-cognitivo di Umberto Eco, questo lavoro presenta, all’inizio, una discussione teorica, da un ritaglio critico sull’autore brasiliano e sulla tipologia delle narrazioni seriali audiovisive contemporanee, al fine di sostenere l’approcio analitico adottato. Lo scopo principale di questa ricerca è quello di affrontare i processi di elaborazione dei segni che coinvolgono domande tanatalogiche in otto narrazioni: Nosedive e Lo Specchio, White Bear e La Causa Segreta, San Junipero e La Seconda Vita, e Be Right Back and Lo Scheletro, del programma britannico e della letteratura di Machado rispettivi. Questo lavoro riflessivo riconosce l’inserimento di queste produzioni in un continuum signico, prendendole come espressioni delle mentalità dei loro tempi in vie escatologiche. Per concatenare queste percezioni, la presente tesi forgia il pensiero enciclopedico delineato dal semioticista italiano, a scavare delle rappresentazioni di morte, paradiso e atteggiamenti umani di fronte al esaurimento della vita dall’antichità classica ai giorni attuali, da vie storici, culturali e sociali, creando un quadro su questi segni nei tempi e le loro risonanze. Infine, l’analisi comparativa gestisce semiosi disp

Full textEste estudo tem por objetivo realizar uma análise do texto literário A Hora da Estrela (1977) e do filme A Hora da Estrela (1986), sob o ponto de vista da teoria semiótica e da tradução intersemiótica. Busca-se mostrar que o processo da tradução entre linguagens distintas é possível e abrangente, uma vez que envolve a literatura (como base) e o cinema articulados com diferentes tipos de signos. A partir do estudo da tradução e seus conceitos, discutir-se-á o processo de adaptação do romance para o cinema, de forma a viabilizar o entrecruzamento de linguagens e o trânsito dos signos. Entendemos que as adaptações fílmicas não podem ser consideradas apenas fiéis ou infiéis, mas sim, recriações que têm por base matrizes verbais literárias, conforme postula Haroldo de Campos (1980). Com o objetivo de complementar nossa análise teórica e crítica sobre A Hora da Estrela - livro e filme, Do Texto Literário ao filme: diálogos intersemióticos em A Hora da Estrela, objeto e título desta pesquisa, utilizamos instrumentais teóricos de autores que compartilham nosso percurso de discussão, tais como Júlio Plaza (1987), Eisenstein (2002), Gorlée (1993), Benedito Nunes (1989). Esses teóricos possibilitou-nos estudar o texto literário como se pôde a partir de uma releitura poética de Suzana Amaral, que em sua obra dialoga e interpenetra semioticamente a obra de Clarice Lispector atualizando-a na construção da narração cinematográfica e com quais as condições em que se deu esta recriação.

Full textThe research works submitted for the habilitation procedure (the monograph Hostage and Partner of Time: Soviet and Post-Soviet Lithuanian Literary Criticism (1945–2000) and articles) analyse the development of Soviet and post-Soviet Lithuanian literary criticism from 1945 to 2000. The first part of the research deals with Soviet-era literary criticism and highlights the most important tendencies in its development, reveals the factors that influenced that development, discusses the phenomenon of Socialist Realism, and examines the methodological orientation of literary criticism. The analysis focuses on the first post-war decade, when literary criticism was forced to become a tool for the propagation of the Communist Party ideology. Later, beginning with the mid-1950’s, the analysis concentrates on the relative liberation of literary criticism and its modernisation, which came about as a result of the most skilled critics choosing alternative methodologies rather than the sociological art interpretation: phenomenology, structuralism, and reception theory. The second part of the research surveys the process of literary criticism in the first decade of Lithuanian independence, accenting attempts at methodological renewal, discussing new tasks, and summarising the results. Having stated the methodological innovations in academic criticism (postcolonialism, cultural studies, feminism), inspired by the experience of the Lithuanian émigré researchers and the Western humanities in...

The work interweaves texts that bounce from apparent autonomy to polifonic intermingling, as a result of its graphic treatment. Typography, shadows of gray, quotes that were appropriated from the original book, screen shots from material written in several moments of the research. Text written with the visible marks of this polifony, breaking the illusion that the text continues, since it registers an univocal voice. Text that browses through its pages a kind of writing that goes beyond the print culture. Instead of using verbal marks to build authoritative coherence, it uses graphic resources to stress how each text is always inhabited by other texts. writt-END develops, among others, the following topics: are, among others: the mixtures that characterize contemporary culture often described as hybrid, crossbred and, recently, remixed; the types of experimental writing, on several media (book, hologram, video), with special focus on the digitally orientended examples; the relations between poetry and technology; the relations between poetry and technology, obseving particularly how technology influences writing; digital language and video, speculating if DVD and broadband internet will contribute to a more auiovisually oriented culture. On the context of a recycling culture, possible due to the multimedial sampling capacities of the personal computer, the work faces a kind of interrelation that goes beyond the boundaries of intertextuality and intersemiose. The sampling process is a kind of quote in wich the material part of the departure sign is embodied on the arrival sign. It is the semiotic process of the body transplant age, in wich bodies lives with parts of other bodies sewed in its tissues. Likewise, programming, the most structural among the several kinds of remix analysed, is the semiotic process of the cell trunk age, when the possibility of reprogramming the genetic code to alter body functioning arise. This way, both point a possible path for literature, on a culture in wich texts as written during the print era are less and less common. But, is it possible to writte about all the aspects of such themes using only printed matter? The prototype interface on the DVD, In the land of palms and threes, complete this thesis approaching the problem from a different angle.

O trabalho entrelaça textos que, apesar da aparente autonomia, revelam por meio da disposição gráfica a trama polifônica em que estão inseridos. Diferentes tipo de letra, tons de cinza, citações em forma de apropriação do livro original, telas capturadas que incorporam textos escritos em momentos diferentes da pesquisa. Escrita organizada a partir das marcas visíveis dessa polifonia, quebra da ilusão de que o texto continua, por ser o suposto registro de uma voz unívoca. Texto que procura entre suas páginas um tipo de escrita posterior à escrita verbal que predominou durante a cultura impressa. Ao invés de usar marcas textuais para construir um efeito de coerência, usa recursos gráficos para construir visualmente um espaço que revela como todo texto é sempre perfurado por outros textos. ex-Crever? discute, entre outros, os seguintes temas: as misturas que caracterizam a cultura contemporânea descrita por termos como hibridismo, mestiçagem e o recente remix; as formas de escrita experimental, nos mais diversos suportes, com especial atenção para exemplos desenvolvidos com tecnologias digitais; as relações entre poesia e tecnologia, observando especialmente a influência da tecnologia na escrita; e as relações entre linguagem digital e vídeo, importantes no momento em que surge o DVD e a internet de banda larga se populariza. No contexto de uma cultura da reciclagem, possível na medida em que os computadores pessoais funcionam como samplers multimídia, o trabalho se defronta com um tipo de relação entre que expande o domínio da intertextualidade e da intersemiose. Trata-se da sampleagem, citação em que a materialidade do signo de partida encarna no texto de chegada. A sampleagem é o processo semiótico dos tempos do transplante de órgãos, em que os corpos sobrevivem com pedaços de outros corpos costurados em seu tecido. Da mesma forma, a programação, o tipo mais estrutural dentre os vários remixes analisados, é o processo semiótico dos tempos das células tronco, em que se vislumbra a possibilidade de reprogramar o código genético para mudar o funcionamento do corpo. Ambos permitem uma escrita por meio de sons e imagens não autorais. Nesse sentido, indicam o trajeto possível da literatura, numa cultura em que o texto conforme a cultura impressa o entendia é cada vez menos comum. Mas será o volume impresso suficiente para essa reflexão? No DVD anexo, o estudo de interface Minha terra tem palms desloca a discussão para a tela do computador, tentando entender por meio de seus próprios recursos um pouco do que quer e do que pode a linguagem digital.

Full textChildrens literature brings two different concerns: the story told by the verbal text, and the one brought by the images of the book cover and of the book. The visual text can awake the senses by an aesthetic experience while what is written on the book can take the reader to a comprehension of the world and of the cultural and moral values. The learning is made possible by different matters and discourses; from whats written to whats touched, from whats read to whats experienced. This essay was delimited to the analyses of five books made specific to children, with illustrations made by a group of embroideress from Minas Gerais called Matizes-Dumont: Exercícios de ser criança, by Manoel de Barros; A moça tecelã, by Marina Colasanti; Menino do rio doce, by Ziraldo; A bola e o goleiro, by Jorge Amado; A menina, a gaiola e a bicicleta/Céu de passarinho, by Rubem Alves and Carlos Brandão. The theoretical basis used for the analyses of this subject is the French Semiotics, also with its deployments such as the Semiotics of Passion, Semiotics of Arts, the Enunciation, and the Tensile Semiotics. In reality, the Tensile Semiotics one goes freely through all the analyses as a sense, or meaning, effect. The possibility of working with different forms of analyses brought up the importance of the material. It shows the strength of the verbal text, and, also, the importance of the material as a work of art since it offers to the readers a number of images that awakes the esthetic and aesthetic. The dialogues are plurilinguistic and polisensorial. The figuratively, well noticed on this essay, follows the developments made by Denis Bertrand. Other important scholar for this research is Jean-Marie Floch, and its ways of working over the visual/pictorial, adding new categories (constitutionals and relational) of analyses for the expression plane. We follow the trails of the esthetic based on the nature of the analyzed objects, since its expressed over ordinary way of working. This course presents an important door on Algidas Julien Greimas book, De l\'imperfection (Of the Imperfection), wich analyses texts-objects of esthetic value, gathering its meaning from the sense, and the expression plane became the main force on the work piece. His descriptions about some literary texts shows us the elasticity of a discourse, going beyond the surface of the text. Yet on the plastic art field, other theoretical sources are present, so it would enrich and enlarge the analyses, always trying to keep the interchange between semiotics, and other forms of analyses of the pictorial. From all these technical information about the plastic art, that contains its own language, its possible for us to show the screen of reading of the text-object. Working with childrens texts forces us to have consistent information about the theoretical universe of this literature, even though the essay goes through the semiotics field. We understand from that the choice of using a book of this field, including specific works about childrens literature, illustration and sketch. This way, each book was analyzed according to a theory of the discursive semiotics or of the plastic art semiotics. On the book A Moça Tecelã, we work with the passions on the verbal text, trying to pay attention to the effects of the sense by the modal, the aspectual, and the structural qualifiers that change the pathetic reaction of the subject. By Manoel de Barros syncretic work we describe the strategies of the enunciation, showing the resources used for the construction of the verbal and visual texts. The intertextuality on Ziraldos work is noticed by his dialog with childrens works made by the north-American author Mark Twain, adding, on the analyses, the esthetic experiences related to the passions. The last chapter talks about the images, creating a counterpoint between the covers of the books A bola e o goleiro, and A menina, a gaiola e a bicicleta/Céu de passarinhos, based on Floch and his theoretical successors. With this essay, weve tried to add possible ways of reading the childrens literature and plastic art using the French Semiotics theoretical tools.

Full textThis research aims to understand how children interact with toy books. In order to do that, the theorethical reference is based on the dircursive semiotics focusing the interactive regimes, proposed by Landowski (2009), in toy books and in the children contact with the productions. Three books to be analyzed were selected based on a research of the awards of Fundação Nacional do Livro Infantil e Juvenil (FNLIJ) in the category toy books, market availability of award books, books narrative appropriate to the age that research comprises and of the amount of interactive possibilities. Five year students from a kindergarten school of Porto Alegre, RS, in Brazil, were selected to interact with the chosen books. The research has a qualitative emphasis; it is an exploratory study using video recording to analyze children interaction with toy books. Their behavior and talking were used to observe how they interact with the toy books. The main interactive regimes perceived during the interaction were programming regimes, accident and adjustment. The results show some evidences of how we can use these books in classrooms and how parents can better select them. It was also possible to determinate how important is the teaching of image reading in school, in a society where image is present at all times, but that very little is reflected on what is shown.

Esta pesquisa apresenta a proposta de investigar a figuratividade poética no texto latino, valendo-se do instrumental teórico que nos fornecem a Poética e a Semiótica Literária, tendo como corpus o episódio de “Cíniras e Mirra”, que integra a obra Metamorfoses (livro X, 298-502) de autoria de Ovídio (43 a.C. - 17 d.C.), considerado um dos maiores poetas da Roma Antiga. As Metamorfoses são um longo poema em versos hexâmetros, composto de quinze livros, que trata do surgimento dos elementos que compõem o mundo e da transformação ocorrida com diversos seres mitológicos em uma narrativa contínua. No trecho selecionado para a análise, conta-se a transformação de uma bela jovem na árvore da mirra, após cometer incesto com o próprio pai, Cíniras, rei de Chipre. Em um trabalho desenvolvido como pesquisa de IC intitulado “Poética e Figuratividade: uma análise de ‘Io’ (Ovídio, Metamorfoses, I, 583-747)”, procurou-se concentrar na primeira etapa dos processos de figuratividade, isto é, na figuração do discurso, quando um tema é revestido por figuras semióticas. Tomando os efeitos de sentido captados pela percepção e apreendidos por meio da leitura como dados de base, pretende-se investigar no corpus o arranjo particular da linguagem. Como resultado dessa investigação produziu-se um discurso metalinguístico a fim de reconhecer os recursos da figuratividade poética determinantes da expressão. Ainda, como base para o desenvolvimento do trabalho, será produzida uma tradução de estudo (literal) acompanhada de notas de referência, com comentários concernentes a dados gerais de cultura (mitologia, história, geografia, filosofia, etc.).
This research is a proposal to investigate the figurative poetics in the Latin text, drawing on the theoretical tools provided by Poetics and Literary Semiotics, with the corpus of the episode "Cinyras and Myrrha", integrating part of the Metamorphoses (Book X, 298-502), by Ovid (43 BC - 17 AD), regarded as one of the greatest poets of Ancient Rome. The Metamorphoses is a long poem in hexameter verses, separated into fifteen books. It depicts the creation of elements of the world and the transmutations of several mythological beings, with a narration that takes place in a continuous form. The selected passage for analysis recounts the transformation of a beautiful young woman into the myrrh tree, after committing incest with her own father, Cinyras, the king of Cyprus. In an already developed undergraduation research entitled “Poetics and Figurativity: an analysis of ‘Io’ (Ovid, Metamorphoses, I, 583-747), we have focused on the first step of the figuration process, that being the figuration of speech, when a subject is covered with semiotic figures. Considering the effects of meaning captured by perception and seized by careful reading as database, we intend to investigate in the corpus particular arrangements of language. The result of this research has produced a metalinguistic discourse to recognize the features of poetical figurativity that are determinants to the expression. Furthermore, as a basis for the development of this work, we will produce a literal study translation, accompanied by background notes, and comments concerning general data culture, such as mythology, history, geography, philosophy, etc.

Full textIn 1990, the publication of the book Immigrato by Salah Methnani and Mario Fortunato marked the beginning of a socio-literary movement that will be called by the scholars as letteratura italiana della migrazione. Since then, the number of these immigrant authors grew exponentially and currently there is even an idea of a second generation of writers. These authors are from worldwide and present a wide variety of literary styles, whose socio-cultural contributions are still stigmatized under the name of migrant literature. There are some recent studies that propose to change the nomenclature, trying to mitigate the stereotypical effects about these writers and their works, although the clear difference between immigrant and Italian productions still remains. This study was proposed to understand, at first, what are the invariable production conditions that made all the books written by immigrants to be considered as belonging to the same group alike. In this context, we should put on discussion both critics and the foreigners works to search for a criteria and common characteristics that could explain the situation in which these authors are. Within the rich production of the letteratura italiana della migrazione we choose to work directly with the short story Perla Nera, by Rosana Crispim da Costa, a brazilian woman who lives and writes in Italy, whose production reveals this duality. By analyzing the specific characteristics of this text, we will try to identify if, for the matter of fact, this work can be considered as italian-immigrant or if, on the other hand, the text itself provides some interpretative clues that would lead to other ways of classification.

Full textThe presented dissertation intends to investigate the graphic composition of children\'s books. The corpus of the research comprises the decades from 1980 to 1990 and the first years of the 21st Century, in Portugal and in Brazil, based on the selection of authors Manuela Bacelar (Portugal) and Roger Mello (Brazil). The choice of the corpus is justified because both were illustrators at first and then have become authors with double talent, that\'s to say, verbal and visual text producers. Besides this characteristic, both have developed a literary production dedicated to the juvenile public, based on the diversity of strategies and relations among semiotics systems, such as: picture books\' authors, picture books illustratorauthors\' and album formatted books\' authors. This last mentioned modality of text, in which there is integration between texts (verbal and visual) is in the center of the discussions and the consideration about its development in light of the French discursive Semiotics, that will also validate every analysis made and constitute the first chapter of this thesis dissertation.Following, the door to Portuguese children\'s books and to the development of album formatted books in such country are opened; also, there will be a detailed analysis of three works by Manuela Bacelar: O dinossauro (1990), A sereiazinha(1995) and Sebastião (2004). Each of the works will be approached considering the different relations between word-image and final composition in a graphic project that should constitute a whole. So, the works differ one from the other, as O dinossauro is a album-book, in which Bacelar is a double talented author; A sereiazinha is an illustrated-book, in which the Portuguese author illustrates the Hans Christian Andersen\'s classic and Sebastião exemplifies the genre in which, by means of images, the plastic artist tells the history. In the third chapter, the Brazilian context is focused and the teamwork emerges, as in the production of comic books, and becomes a key characteristic to the album-book genre\'s history in Brazil. Roger Mello is an author quite representative of this \'artistic tendency\' and the works chosen to be analyzed stand out by their team production and by their different relations\' (or relation degrees\') constitution between word and image in the composition of the graphic project. The following works will be analyzed with deeper attention: Jardins (2001) and Desertos (2006) verbal text of Roseana Murray; Fita verde no cabelo: nova velha história (1992), in which Mello ilustrates the tale of Guimarães Rosa and Vizinho, vizinha (2002), a work created by a team composed by the artists: Mariana Massarani, Graça Lima and Roger Mello and, still, the last signs it as its verbal text\'s author.Finally, in the fourth chapter it is possible to make a comparison between the album-book context and its characteristics in the Portuguese and in the Brazilian scenery, reaching some constants, such as the tendency to the pictorial trace in Portugal and to the graphism in Brazil.Therefore, from the two particular contexts, we can have a notion of the album-book as a genre increasingly present in the Juvenile Literature scene

Full textThe relevance of image as a text able to produce meaning, by itself or associated to verbal texts, in children’s literary books has been discussed in different national and international studies. However, it is possible to notice that there is a gap of researches which concentrate on how schools can deal with reading the image in children literature. This research proposes a mediated reading of wordless books in Elementary School, understanding this practice as interactive and meaningful, as well as a valuable to visual literacy. Thus, in the first part we characterize two elements that give rise to this study: the wordless book and the School Library National Program (PNBE). In the second part, we define and problematize the actions implied in the effort of this study: read, mediate and literate. The third section contextualizes the theoretical and methodological way of understanding the production and apprehension of meaning. In order to this, we describe the concepts of discursive semiotics (GREIMAS, 2004; FLOCH, 1985a, 1985b, 2001; OLIVEIRA, 1999, 2001, 2004, 2005) that allow us to comprehend how meaning can be constructed in relation to objects, subjects and their interactions. Dealing with plastic semiotics, we explore the structural aspects of text-image, analyzing the effects of meaning created by visual language in the object. Based on the contemporary development of the semiotic theory, we characterize ways of being and acting from the subjects (LANDOWSKI 2009), in interaction with objects and by themselves, and how they produce meaning, revealing behaviors that enable to distinguish arrangements of interaction and meaning. The study was divided in two parts:1) the structural reading of three wordless books selected to this study; 2) two different mediated reading activities of wordless books from the PNBE Collection to 2010, involving three teachers from the public school system of Rio Grande do Sul and the students from the school where they work. The first reading practice was organized in three meetings in which the teachers could reflect about wordless book reading and exercise their look of reading. Issued from these practices, the teachers organized the second activity of mediated reading in which they developed a reading mediation with one of the wordless books with their students from Elementary School. These two distinct reading practices enabled us to observe the ways of being and acting of the teachers as readers e how these behaviors has bee reflected or not, recursively, in their propositions of mediation. All this research way, theoretical-practical-reflexive, allowed us, in the end, at the fifth part, to define a few assumptions to an approach of visual literacy that deals with wordless books as the reading object in a mediated action.
La importancia de la imagen como productora del significado, aislada o asociada a lo verbal, en la constitución del libro literario para niños se ha discutido en diferentes estudios, internacionales y nacionales. Hay, sin embargo, la falta de investigaciones que se centren en cómo la lectura de imagen en la literatura infantil puede ser abordada en el contexto escolar. Hemos intentado en esta investigación proponer la mediación de lectura del libro de dibujos en la educación primaria, entendiéndola como una práctica de interacción y sentido que ayuda en la alfabetización visual. Así, la primera parte caracteriza los dos factores desencadenantes de este estudio: el libro de imágenes y el “Programa Nacional Biblioteca da Escola” (PNBE). En un segundo momento, delimitamos e problematizamos las acciones involucradas: leer, mediar y letrar. En la tercera parte, situamos teórica y metodológicamente cómo comprendemos la producción de sentido y entendimiento. Para eso describimos conceptos de la semiótica discursiva (GREIMAS, 2004; FLOCH, 1985a, 1985b, 2001; OLIVEIRA, 1999, 2001, 2004, 2005) que nos permiten entender cómo el significado se puede constituir en relación con los objetos, los sujetos y sus interacciones. Sobre la base de la semiótica de plástica, nos dirigimos a los aspectos estructurales de la imagen-texto, analizando los efectos de sentido que el lenguaje visual crea en el objeto. Basándose en los avances de la teoría semiótica contemporánea, caracterizamos los modos de ser y de actuar de los sujetos (LANDOWSKI 2009), en interacción con los objetos o con otros sujetos, y cómo producen sentidos, revelando conductas que distinguen regímenes de interacción y sentido. El estudio se dividió en dos fases: 1) lectura estructural de tres libros de imagen elegidos para la investigación; 2) dos acciones distintas de lectura mediadas de los libros de imagen del acervo PNBE 2010, con tres maestras de una escuela pública de Río Grande do Sul y los alumnos de la escuela donde trabajaban. La primera actividad de lectura fue organizada en tres reuniones en las que las maestras podrían reflexionar sobre la lectura del libro ilustrado y el ejercicio de mirar como lectoras. A partir de este ejercicio, las maestras organizaron la segunda acción de lectura mediada, propusieron una mediación de las obras leídas con su grupo de alumnos de la escuela primaria. Estas dos prácticas distintas de lecturas nos permitieron observar las formas de ser y de actuar de los docentes como lectores y cómo estos comportamientos se reflejan o no, de forma recursiva, en la mediación organizada por ellos. Todo este recorrido prácticoteórico- reflexivo nos permitió por último, la quinta parte, definimos algunos principios para un enfoque de letramento visual que tiene el libro de imágenes como un objeto y la lectura mediada como acción.

Full textThis research aims to examine the route of the vampire figure in film, tracing a line of ancestry that starts in early influences found in medieval art, through the transmutations within the Gothic and Romantic literature, until contemporaneously, their cinematic recreations. It is about to understand the factors that forged the figure of the vampire in current cinema, especially regarding to its status as an undead male and to the arising horror effects. Thus, the object of study assumes two distinct phases: primary, enclosed by the figure of the vampire in film; and secondary, comprising a cutout of fantastic literature. Being hybrid, the research corpus comprises, at first, a set of works of the XV century called Dance macabre, plus a small sample of tales of the XVIII and XIX centuries with vampire theme, culminating in the work Dracula, by Bram Stoker, on 1897. Secondly, but more importantly, about a century set of extensive and representative vampire filmography that includes the transformation of the vampire image, starting with Nosferatu, on 1922; and finishing with Shadows of the Night, on 2011. The assumptions that guide the study deal with the relationship between the attraction exerted by the vampires and their increasing aestheticization; detachment between cinematic vampires and the literary array of Bram Stoker's Dracula and the consequent spread of reconfigurations of character retrieve the medieval influences. Forcibly multidisciplinary, the theoretical references of research include studies in Art History, History of Literature and the History of Cinema, as an instrument of semiotic analysis, which in this case will be Greimas for literature and Peirce for images. Supported by this background, the study also aims to contribute significantly to the study of the figure of the vampire, highlighting the influences that determined the existence of one of the most important horror characters of the first century of cinema
Esta pesquisa tem como principal objetivo examinar o percurso da figura vampiresca no cinema, traçando uma linha de ancestralidade que se inicia nas primeiras influências encontradas na arte medieval, passando pelas transmutações no âmbito da literatura romântica gótica e chegando, contemporaneamente, a suas refigurações cinematográficas. Trata-se de compreender os fatores que forjaram as imagens e a figura do vampiro no cinema atual, especialmente no que se refere à sua condição de morto vivo do sexo masculino e aos efeitos de horror daí decorrentes. O objeto de estudos assume, desse modo, duas faces distintas: uma primária, delimitada pela figura do vampiro no cinema e outra secundária, constituída por um recorte de literaturas fantásticas. Sendo híbrido, o corpus da pesquisa compreende, num primeiro momento, um conjunto de obras do século XV, denominadas Danças Macabras, além de uma pequena amostra de contos dos séculos XVIII e XIX com tema vampiresco, que culminaram na obra Drácula, de Bram Stoker, de 1897. Num segundo momento, porém mais relevante, um extenso conjunto de filmes representativos de cerca de um século de filmografia vampiresca contempla as transformações da imagem vampiresca, iniciando por Nosferatu de 1922 e terminando com Sombras da Noite de 2011. As hipóteses que norteiam o estudo versam sobre: as relações entre a atração exercida pelos vampiros e sua crescente estetização; o distanciamento dos vampiros cinematográficos da matriz literária do Drácula de Bram Stoker e a consequente disseminação de reconfigurações da personagem que recuperam as influências medievais. Obrigatoriamente multidisciplinares, os referenciais teóricos da pesquisa compreendem estudos em História da Arte, História da Literatura e História do Cinema, assim como um instrumental de análise semiótica, que, neste caso, será greimasiano para a literatura e peirceano para as imagens. É com esse referencial que o estudo pretende contribuir de forma relevante para o estudo da figura do vampiro, destacando as influências que determinaram a existência de uma das mais importantes personagens de horror do primeiro século de cinema

Full textThis research is characterized by a theological analysis of the texts of Jayme Caetano Braun, who is a southern Brazilian traditional poet Galpão de Estância (1954), De Fogão em Fogão (1958), Brasil Grande do Sul and Paisagens Perdidas (1966) , associating the literary theory of semiotics and the theology of culture. In the first chapter, the theoretical referential of Paul Tillichs theology of culture is introduced, starting from the presumption that religion is the foundation of culture and its task is to lift the deep substance to the surface. Yet in this chapter, using Jakobson and Lotman, the establishment of literary semiotics as a helping tool in this hermeneutic task is sought. The second chapter relates the results of an investigation of the main works about theology and literature produced in Brazil. Finally, in the third and last chapter, Jayme Caetano Brauns works are situated in the context of southern Brazilian poetry. Starting from a thematic division, the literary semiotic analysis proceeds in order to establish a theological vision about the theme.
