    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e ExpressãoO propósito desta dissertação é analisar as atitudes de Dylan Thomas perante a morte, expressas em dezoito de seus poemas, e compará-las com a tradição cristã protestante, buscando pontos de similaridade e pontos de divergência. O tema da morte é importante e central na poesia de Dylan Thomas. Em minha análise eu concluo que os poemas de Dylan Thomas apresentam uma atitude ambígua diante da morte, algumas vezes sugerindo uma certa resistência, às vezes sugerindo uma calma aceitação, sempre expressa em termos de metáforas e alusões à tradição cristã. A visão de Dylan Thomas da morte pode ser basicamente entendida em termos de uma reabsorção do indivíduo nos elementos da natureza, contrastando assim com a noção cristã de ressurreicão da carne. No primeiro capítulo eu apresento a visão cristã da morte conforme é descrita na Bíblia, na teologia de Martinho Lutero, em João Calvino, e na filosofia de Soren Kierkegaard, mostrando que a visão cristã da morte é resultado de um longo desenvolvimanto histórico. No segundo capítulo apresento a análise dos poamas de Dylan Thomas, tentando focalizar suas atitudes diante da morte do outro, da morte do eu, e da morte da raca humana. E na conclusão apresento uma comparação entre as atitudes de Dylan Thomas e os valores da tradição cristã, mostrando que o poeta usa símbolos e conceitos cristãos mas que os reinterpreta de acordo com sua visão da vida e da morte, e de acordo também com seus propósitos estéticos

    Bob Dylan and religion

    No full text
    This article, which is located within the field of research on religion and popular culture, is a discussion of the relations of one particular rock artist, Bob Dylan, to religion. Religion can be seen as a recurring topic in Dylan’s work—particularly during a period at the end of the 1970s and beginning of the 1980s, often referred to as his ‘Christian era’—and also in the discourses around him. This article explores how the topic of religion appears in discourses around Bob Dylan. In this article one particular aspect of the connection between religion and popular culture is looked at: the construction of certain artists or stars as religious figures, and more specifically Bob Dylan as a case. The author does not try to discover whether Dylan is religious or not; or which religion he possibly adheres to. Rather, the author looks at how rock artists and in this case Bob Dylan are ‘constructed’ as religious figures
