Lima Barreto: rupturas
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura.Pretende-se, ao longo desta dissertação, destacar a noção de ruptura a alimentar a obra de Lima Barreto. Para tanto, investiga-se primeiramente a fortuna crítica existente sobre Lima Barreto, tanto aquela vigente a sua época, como a posterior. Busca-se, a seguir, na contramão da crítica instituída, indicar aquelas que seriam as rupturas perpetradas por Lima Barreto, tanto em termos estéticos com ideológicos, momento em que se inverte, de certa maneira, o sinal da crítica: aquilo que ela apontava como defeito bem poderia ser mérito de Lima Barreto. Testamos esse ponto de vista na leitura mais detida de um dos romances de Lima Barreto, o Triste Fim de Policarpo Quaresma, e, depois, em observações esparsas em torno de sua obra e de suas posturas estéticas e ideológicas. Trilhado esse caminho, restava uma questão, entre outras: a necessidade de situar a obra de Lima Barreto no contexto da literatura brasileira, em que Lima Barreto aparece, normalmente, como um autor "pré-modernista". Contesta-se no corpo do texto, tal enquadramento, indicando-se, no contraponto, a modernidade e atualidade de Lima Barreto, ou a do que se poderia denominar de "bloco-popular" da sua época
Uma leitura benjaminiana da narrativa de Lima Barreto
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura, Florianópolis, 2013Buscamos analisar as Teses benjaminianas em "Sobre o conceito de história" na representação literária de Lima Barreto, especialmente alguns conceitos importantes: memória/recordação, discriminação racial, progresso, opressores/oprimidos, explorador/explorados, discurso/política e outros. Partiremos da ideia inicial de Lima Barreto, ou seja, a de escrever a história da escravidão negra no Brasil por meio do que ele denomina de "negrismo" na literatura brasileira, entendendo que este projeto não deve ser considerado malogrado, mas pode ser encontrado em quase toda a sua obra. Se Lima Barreto não escreveu a história pretendida, sua ficção está impregnada deste projeto-sonho que, em certa medida, mantém forte relação com as teses de Walter Benjamin, especialmente com o sofrimento humano frente a regimes opressores e ditatoriais. Posto isso, intentamos compreender, à luz das teses desenvolvidas por Walter Benjamin, como o escritor analisa parte da história do Brasil na chamada belle époque do Rio de Janeiro, transformando seu projeto em narrativas ficcionais, concluídas ou inacabadas.Abstract : We pretend to analyse Walter Benjamin´s theses in "Sobre o conceito de história" (On the concept of history) in the literary representation of Lima Barreto, highlighting some important concepts: memory/remembrance, racial discrimination, progress, oppressors/oppressed, exploiters/exploited, discourse/politics and others. We will start with Lima Barreto´s initial idea, that is, of describing the history of the black slavery in Brazil through what he calls "negrismo" in Brazilian literature, while maintaining that this project should not be considered unsuccessful since it can be found in most of his works. If Lima Barreto did not write the intended history, his fiction is drenched with thoughts of a project close to his heart and which, to a certain extent, strongly parallels the theses of Walter Benjamin, especially in regard to human suffering under oppressive and dictatorial political regimes. Therefore, we tried to understand, in the light of the theses developed by Walter Benjamin, to what extent the writer Lima Barreto analyses and understands that phase of the history of Brazil called Rio de Janeiro´s "belle époque", transforming his project into fictional narratives, be they completed or unfinished

Estações de passagem da ficção de Lima Barreto
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura, Florianópolis, 2011Esta tese procura problematizar as relações possíveis entre os escritos da intimidade e as crônicas de Lima Barreto com seu último romance publicado em vida: Vida e Morte de M.J. Gonzaga de Sá. A microleitura social, típica de Lima Barreto e praticada ao longo de anos nas páginas da intimidade e nas crônicas, atravessa Vida e Morte de M.J. Gonzaga de Sá (1919) e a estrutura deste romance quase sem enredo, composto de percepções do cotidiano e recordações memorialísticas. Não é um romance panfletário como Recordações do Escrivão Isaías Caminha (1909), nem tampouco um romance escrito dentro dos pressupostos realistas como Triste Fim de Policarpo Quaresma (1911/1915). Pelo contrário, em Vida e Morte, a percepção fragmentária da realidade, descolada da ação das personagens, que são meros expectadores do universo burguês-brasileiro em construção, é a forma assumida pelo romance para uma história que se escreve por outros caminhos. O bonde, o trem, os selos, a moda são pistas dos processos de modernização em que se inseria o país e se tornam tema das conversas aleatórias das personagens Gonzaga de Sá e Augusto Machado. E, ao contrário do que muitos críticos pensam, não se trata do desconhecimento das regras do romance realista, mas sim de uma potencialidade explorada pelo autor de escrever um romance que travasse, em sua forma fragmentária e difusa, um diálogo intertextual com aqueles tempos eufóricos e que se aproveitasse das matérias colecionadas ao longo dos anos no Diário Íntimo (1953) e nas crônicas.This thesis aims at questioning the possible relations between Lima Barreto#s personal writings and chronicles with Vida e Morte de M.J. Gonzaga de Sá (1919), his last published novel. Though widely considered as minor genres, the private writings and chronicles are here seen as points of connections and development of his fictional work, but they also can sometimes be seen as potential works of fiction.The social micro reading, which is typical of Lima Barreto and clearly seen in his personal writings and chronicles, pervades Vida e Morte de M.J. Gonzaga de Sá and it determines the novel#s structure with its uneventful plot, composed of insights into everyday life and of memory recollections. It is not a denunciatory novel as Recordações do Escrivão Isaías Caminha (1909) and neither a realist novel as Triste Fim de Policarpo Quaresma (1915). Thus, the streetcar, the train, the stamps, and fashion are trails of the modernization process that Brazil was going through and they become the subject of the aleatory conversations between Gonzaga de Sá and Augusto Machado. On the contrary, in Vida e Morte, the fragmentary perception of reality, separated from the characters# actions who are mere observers of the Brazilian bourgeois universe under construction, is the form taken by the novel to tell a story that is written in a different mode. And this is so not because Lima Barreto ignored the rules of the Realist novel, as many critics state, but because he explored a potentiality of writing a novel that, in its fragmentary and diffuse form, would propose a intertextual dialogue with those euphoric times and that would take advantage of the subjects collected over the years in his personal writings and chronicles

Vida literária e desencantos: uma história da formação intelectual de Lima Barreto (1881-1922)
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em História, Florianópolis, 2015.O pensamento  conceito abordado aqui enquanto um processo vinculado à formação intelectual do sujeito  pode ser um fenômeno multifacetado e permanecer em aberto. Com base nessa premissa, os diagnósticos elaborados por Lima Barreto (1881-1922) sobre a modernidade serão mapeados a partir das mediações culturais que estabeleceram com ícones bastante representativos das letras modernas, como, por exemplo, Anatole France, Tolstói, Dostoievski, Thomas Carlyle e Jules Gaultier. É preciso esclarecer, de antemão, que esse trabalho constitui um ponto de vista, entre muitos possíveis, sobre as relações mantidas por Lima Barreto e a cultura escrita que circulou em seu tempo. Buscar compreender alguns nuances do processo de maturação intelectual desse escritor, a partir das influências que recebeu das literaturas estrangeiras, não significa crer no argumento de que a criatividade barretiana foi um tipo de reflexo das ideias europeias. A partir, principalmente, das impressões de leitura de Lima Barreto e do catálogo de sua biblioteca particular, pretendo comparar as ideias literárias desse escritor com as de outros homens de letras que fizeram parte de sua geração. Por meio desse procedimento, é possível trabalhar com a perspectiva de que os diagnósticos de Afonso Henriques sobre a política, a modernidade brasileira e a vida intelectual, na Primeira República, podem dialogar com contextos documentais bem mais amplos do que o da história nacional.Abstract : The thought - a concept discussed here as a process linked to the intellectual formation of the subject - can be a multifaceted phenomenon and still remain open. Starting from this premise, the diagnoses elaborated by Lima Barreto (1881-1922) about modernity will be mapped starting from the cultural mediations that have established quite representative icons of modern letters, for example, Anatole France, Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky, Thomas Carlyle and Jules Gaultier. We must clarify in advance that this work is a point of view, among many possible, on relations maintained by Lima Barreto and the written culture that circulated in his time. Search to understand some nuances of intellectual maturation process of this writer, starting from the influences received from foreign literature, does not mean believing in the argument that the creativity of Barreto was a kind of reflection of European ideas. From mainly of Lima Barreto s reading impressions and his personal library catalog, want to compare the literary ideas of this writer with the other brazilian authors that were part of his generation. Through this procedure, is possible work with the perspective that the diagnostics about politic, brazilian modernity and the intellectual life, in the First Republic, made by Lima Barreto, be able to inserteds in documentary contexts more extensive than the local history

Non-Standalone 5G NR FiWi System Based on a Photonic Integrated Multi-Wavelength Transmitter
No full textThis letter presents a non-standalone 5G new radio (NR) multiband fiber-wireless (FiWi) system implemented using an integrated multi-wavelength transmitter with direct modulation. In this system, three 4G/5G RF signals are simultaneously transported over a 12.5-km long radio over fiber (RoF) link, before being amplified and radiated: a 20-MHz 5G NR signal at 788 MHz; five 20-MHz LTE subcarriers at 2.6 GHz; a 100-MHz 5G NR signal at 3.5 GHz. Wireless transmissions through a 10-m long indoor picocell-like link and a 115-m long realistic outdoor wireless link are demonstrated. All 4G and 5G received signals comply with the 3GPP Release 15 requirements, in terms of EVMRMS, except for 16 QAM at 3.5 GHz on the 115-m link. Experimental results demonstrate a total throughput of 1.36 Gbit/s and 230 Mbit/s on the 10-m and 115-m scenarios, respectively
Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses
No full textFollowing an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied
