To save the beasts: La Bête and Brazil eight years later
Full text linkO artigo retorna à performance La Bête, de Wagner Schwartz, oito anos depois da deflagração de sua polêmica em 2017, analisando os seus procedimentos formais face à fortuna crítica acumulada durante o período, assim como levando em conta o romance autobiográfico escrito pelo artista e lançado em 2023. Ao longo da análise crítica, serão revelados como os seus três procedimentos basilares – a interrupção, a suspensão e a transformação – podem servir como modelos para pensar o país e os seus conflitos sócio-políticos, mas também o próprio estatuto da obra de arte contemporânea frente aos impasses atuais.This article revisits Wagner Schwartz’s performance La Bête eight years after the outbreak of its controversy in 2017, analyzing its procedural structure in the light of the critical fortune accumulated during this period, as well as taking into account the autobiographical novel written by the artist and released in 2023. Throughout the critical analysis, it will be revealed how its three basic procedures – interruption, suspension and transformation – can serve as models for thinking about the country and its socio-political conflicts, but also the very status of the contemporary work of art in the face of the current impasses
Anotações sobre as raízes estéticas do fascismo
Full text link This article aims to unfold Peter Sloterdijk’s hypothesis, in “Critique of Cynical Reason”,according to which the emergence of fascism is due to the establishment of a cynical ethic inculture – a modern cynicism, a bastard child of the combative Greek cynicism. To this end, it willbe necessary to rescue the figure of Diogenes, the ancient philosopher, his relationship with thesocial body and his ethic of “truth-telling”. Next, we intend to outline what would be an aestheticof fascism from its cynical bases, adapted to social logic – such as the character Peachum, by BertoltBrecht, and the Nephew, by Denis Diderot – to finally bring such an aesthetic closer to the modeof government of fascism.O artigo pretende desdobrar a hipótese de Peter Sloterdijk, em “Crítica da Razão Cínica”, segundo a qual a emergência do fascismo se deve ao estabelecimento de uma ética cínica na cultura – um cinismo moderno, filho bastardo do combativo cinismo grego. Para tanto, será necessário resgatar a figura de Diógenes, o filósofo antigo, sua relação com o corpo social e sua ética da “fala franca”. Em seguida, pretendemos delinear o que seria uma estética do fascismo a partir de suas bases cínicas, adaptadas à lógica social – a exemplo do personagem Peachum, de Bertolt Brecht, e do Sobrinho, de Denis Diderot – para, enfim, aproximarmos tal estética ao modo de governar do fascismo
QAnons, antivacinas e influenciadores de bem-estar: uma perspectiva semiótico-discursiva sobre os vínculos entre teorias da conspiração, espiritualidade e wellness
Full text linkEstudiosos de diversas áreas destacaram o vínculo entre teorias da conspiração, o discurso espiritual da new age e o bem-estar. Este artigo contribui para este campo de estudo ao analisar criticamente os mecanismos semióticos subjacentes que governam a sobreposição entre as teorias da conspiração relacionadas ao QAnon, antivacina e Covid-19, a espiritualidade da Nova Era e o bem-estar. De uma perspectiva lotmaniana, faço uma análise semiótica crítica dos vínculos entre esses três domínios discursivos durante a pandemia de Covid-19, concentrando-me especialmente na página do Facebook da influenciadora de saúde alternativa Christiane Northrup. Para fazer isso, baseio-me no conceito de tradução de Lotman, bem como em seu desenvolvimento no campo da semiótica cultural. Combinando a teoria da tradução de Lotman com a semiótica discursiva de Greimas, afirmo que o vínculo entre teorias da conspiração, espiritualidade e bem-estar é baseado nas traduções de cinco elementos culturais semióticos: (i) tramas narrativas básicas; (ii) temas e papéis temáticos; (iii) figuras; (iv) características plásticas; e (v) paixões coletivas. Com base nesta análise, também busco detalhar como funciona a tradução de Lotman, observando quais características semióticas são exatamente traduzidas quando dois ou mais semiosferas entram em contato, bem como em que lógicas essa tradução se baseia

AmazonAfricas: literary engagement, creolization, and self-movement in Amílcar Cabral and Bruno de Menezes
Full text linkEste artigo investiga o engajamento, a crioulização e a semovência literárias nas poéticas de Amílcar Cabral e Bruno de Menezes, cujas trajetórias se inscrevem nas lutas de descolonização em Cabo Verde e no Brasil. Parte-se de uma análise comparativa, com base em referenciais relacionados ao contexto do estudo, para compreender como as obras desses autores expressam resistência à hegemonia cultural imposta pela colonialidade do poder. A metodologia fundamenta-se na leitura crítica e interpretativa das produções literárias e associada ao contexto histórico de formação das subjetividades colonizadas. Observa-se que, mesmo separados por contextos espaciais e temporais distintos, os dois poetas constroem uma poética de enfrentamento às estruturas coloniais, ressignificando a língua do colonizador a partir de elementos culturais e populares, de ressonâncias territoriais e de meios tocados pela luta decolonial, seja na periferia urbana da Amazônia paraense, ou nas tórridas paragens insulares caboverdianas. Conclui-se que a literatura engajada de Cabral e Menezes opera como práxis estética e política, promovendo a reterritorialização simbólica das identidades subalternizadas e o devir de uma poética diversa, afirmada na criação e reinvenção contínua da experiência histórica dos povos desterrados.This article investigates literary engagement, creolization, and self-movement in the poetics of Amílcar Cabral and Bruno de Menezes, whose trajectories are inscribed in the decolonization struggles in Cape Verde and Brazil. It begins with a comparative analysis, based on references related to the context of the study, to understand how the works of these authors express resistance to the cultural hegemony imposed by the coloniality of power. The methodology is grounded in a critical and interpretative reading of their literary productions, linked to the historical context in which colonized subjectivities were formed. It is observed that, despite being separated by distinct spatial and temporal contexts, both poets construct a poetics of confrontation with colonial structures, redefining the language of the colonizer by means of cultural and popular elements, territorial resonances, and environments touched by the decolonial struggle, whether in the urban periphery of the Amazon in Pará or in the torrid island landscapes of Cape Verde. It is concluded that Cabral and Menezes’ engaged literature operates as aesthetic and political praxis, promoting the symbolic reterritorialization of subalternized identities and the emergence of a diverse poetics, affirmed in the continuous creation and reinvention of the historical experience of exiled peoples
Is There Justice in Violent Family-Related Crimes? How Femicide has Crossed the ocean: meanings and ages between “The Oresteia” by Aeschylus and “The Glass Bottle Trick” by Nalo Hopkinson
Full text link“The Oresteia” is a historical landmark in the fine arts, such as theatre and literature, due to its aesthetic and political elements that continue to impact contemporary life, particularly in the realm of family-related crimes. Therefore, it is relevant to analyze the permanence of that phenomenon with a critical lens. Since their relevance today is as a kind of representation of social antagonism, which continues, it results in demands for typing as a specific crime: femicide. Considering that, we contextualize these themes in the Feminist Literary tradition to comprehend how a Black female Caribbean experience can complicate the discussion about gendered and racialized violence. Contrasting the Greek classic with a contemporary short story entitled “The Glass Bottle Trick” by Nalo Hopkinson through a Black female feminist perspective, it is possible to observe some intertextual elements that connect the “social curses” experienced by Clytemnestra, and likewise the Heroine Beatrice. In both of these texts, the presence of Erinyes (The Furies) influences the discussion about retributive justice and countercolonial conscience

Enchanting the language: marginal poetry as a weapon against erasure and invisibility
Full text linkThis article investigates the experience of young black and/ or peripheral with the word-poetry, analyzing their possibilities as an instrument of reexistence in a historical context of erasure and invisibilization. The text is the result of a master’s research carried out in 2023 whose initial objectives sought to understand about the involvement of these youth with poetry at the interface with the manifestation of the word in school life. Its character is qualitative and it was held in a sarau of marginal poetry that takes place in a public high school. Used as methodologies: participant observation, discussion group and individual narrative interviews. The interlocutors of the research were 5 high school students who are also poets. The results indicate that the word-poetry is experienced symbolically by young people as a “weapon” to face social problems such as racism, inequality and erasure. The production of words-poetry, in this sense materialize as a possibility of life production, in contrast with the production of death imposed by society to several socially vulnerable groups from a dispute of narratives and power. It is concluded that the marginal poetry, sung by black and peripheral youth, is a practice that points to possibilities of existence in hostile environments. She produces “reexistence literacies” (Souza, 2009), confronting stigmas and reaffirming authentic discourses. The production of the poetic word is configured as a social practice that allows the registration of these young people in society, affirming their identities and resisting hegemonic discursive logics
