Uma Leitura Crítica de O Deus das Pequenas Coisas: as memórias de Rahel
Get PDFThe aim of this work is to study the representation of the national identity and some aspects of
Indian culture in the novel The God of Small Things (1998) by Arundhati Roy through an
analysis that focuses on the how the author deconstructs and criticizes the representation of
Indian cultural identity still based on the caste system to which is attributed the stratification
of Indian society. The discussion also takes into account in what the novel portrays the
cultural changes that took place in Indian society as a result of its contact with Western
culture, in particular through the English colonization of the subcontinent.A proposta desta dissertação é realizar um estudo acerca da representação da identidade
nacional e cultural indiana no romance O deus das pequenas coisas (1998) de Arundhati Roy
(1998), por meio de uma análise que investiga a forma como a autora desconstrói e critica a
representação da identidade cultural da Índia ainda fundamentada no sistema de castas, ao
qual se atribui a antiga origem da estratificação da sociedade indiana. Procura-se, também,
identificar de que maneira o romance retrata as mudanças culturais ocorridas na sociedade
indiana decorrentes do contato com a cultura ocidental, tendo por referência a influência da
colonização inglesa

O plurivocalismo de raça e gênero em “Melanctha”, de Gertrude Stein
Get PDFThe aim of this work is to analyze the inter-racial and gender elements articulated through
plurivocalic discourse, in the short story “Melanctha”, part of the book Three Lives (1909), by
Gertrude Stein. The main objective is to identify these voices, as representations of blackness
and whiteness in order to establish the parameters that determine these relationships and, in
turn, how they influence the ethnic relations represented in the narrative. Regarding the
theoretical background a dialogue has been articulated between Cultural Studies ─ more
precisely authors such as Woodward (2004) ─ and feminist theorists, such as Davis (2016) and
hooks (2019). For the analysis of the plurivocal quality of the narrative will be followed
Bakhtin's (1988) theory of plurivocalism. Regarding the critical reception of Stein´s work, will
be considered the works by Rowe (2003), Hathaway, Jarab and Melnick (2003), English (2004),
Abreu (2008), Daniel (2008), Will (2008), Aguiar and Queiroz (2015) and Morrison (2020).
Regarding the concept of negritude, the analysis will be guided by the studies of Silva, Lago,
Ramos (1999) and Munanga (2009). We concluded that, through stereotypes and the narrator's
emphatic influence in using the values of whiteness in a narrative mainly composed by black
characters, “Melanctha” subverts racism and transforms it into a transvestite oppression
mechanism of opinions issued by black characters, when it is the narrator's opinion that is being
expressed. We also conclude that based on racialized relations, “Melanctha” perpetuates racial
stereotypes, but, even more, exposes the racial and gender relations of the turn of the 19th
century with a subtlety that borders on its erasure.A presente dissertação pretende compreender o funcionamento inter-racial e de gênero no
discurso plurivocálico, do conto “Melanctha”, parte do livro Three Lives (1909), de Gertrude
Stein. Por meio da análise objetivou-se identificar essas vozes, como representações da
negritude e da branquidade e estabelecer os parâmetros que determinam esses relacionamentos,
para que se possa determinar as influências da branquidade nas relações étnicas da narrativa. A
fundamentação teórica norteia-se pela articulação de um diálogo entre os Estudos Culturais ─
mais precisamente autores como Woodward (2004) ─ e teorias feministas, como as de Davis
(2016) e hooks (2019). Para análise de “Melanctha”, seguiremos os conceitos da teoria
plurivocal de Bakhtin (1988). A respeito da recepção crítica de Stein, consideraremos a obra de
Rowe (2003), Hathaway, Jarab e Melnick (2003), English (2004), Abreu (2008), Daniel (2008),
Will (2008), Aguiar e Queiroz (2015) e Morrison (2020). A análise também será norteada pelos
estudos sobre negritude de Silva, Lago e Ramos (1999) e Munanga (2009). Como resultados
finais, identificamos que, por meio de estereótipos e a influência enfática do narrador em utilizar
os valores da branquidade em uma narrativa com o núcleo majoritariamente de personagens
negros, “Melanctha” subverte o racismo e transforma-o em um mecanismo de opressão
transvestido de opiniões emitidas por personagens negros, quando é a opinião do narrador que
está sendo expressa por trás das palavras destes. A partir da representação das relações
racializadas, em “Melanctha” Stein perpetua os estereótipos raciais, mas, ainda mais, expõe as
relações raciais e de gênero da virada do século XIX com uma sutileza que beira no seu
apagamento

A House of Many Mansions: Goan Literature in Portuguese
No full textGoan writing in Portuguese has had a long and chequered history and at present is all but unknown in the region that inspired it, and by the descendants of those who produced it.
This collection, originally published as a special edition of the reputed literary magazine Muse India, gathers translations of short stories, poems and extracts of novels and sets them alongside critical articles that aim to open up this body of writing for a contemporary Anglophone reader in Goa and further afield.
Though often (but not exclusively) produced from a position of social advantage, and predominantly by Catholics, this branch of Goan literature contains many viewpoints on the history, identity and society of a territory that, while colonised by Portugal for hundreds of years, has always negotiated its place in the world in a wider Indian context. In this house of writing there are indeed many mansions

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
