    No full text
    The book brings together historical memories of the Xavier family, of which the author is a member, and includes everything from the heroic episode between members of the Xavier family and Lampião's gang, to a Xavier family tree and tributes to the members of this family, as well as photographic records of known members. The author rescues and preserves important memories of the family, reconstructing facts that, if told orally, could gradually be erased. The story told by Maria do Socorro Cardoso Xavier is also a way of preserving the memory of Ipueira, reporting on the social life and historical setting of the place, using family narrative.O livro reúne registros de memórias históricas da família Xavier, da qual a autora é membro, e traz desde o episódio heróico entre membros da família Xavier e o bando de Lampião, à uma árvore genealógica dos Xavier e homenagens aos membros dessa famílias, além de registros fotográficos dos membros conhecidos. A autora resgata e preserva memórias importantes da família, reconstituindo fatos que, contados oralmente, poderiam se apagar aos poucos. A história narrada por Maria do Socorro Cardoso Xavier também é uma forma de preservar a memória de Ipueira, relatando sobre a vida social e cenário histórico do lugar, utilizando da narrativa familiar

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
