O presente trabalho é resultado de um estudo sobre a obra de Moreira Campos, no qual se faz uma análise da coruja que simboliza a morte, observando que a simbologia ligada a ela vem sendo criada no decorrer dos séculos, influenciando direta ou indiretamente o folclore brasileiro. As formas como a morte se configura no conto do escritor cearense constitui o foco deste estudo, ressaltando-se como símbolo de morte a coruja (anunciadora da morte). Nesse sentido, procura-se relacionar os aspectos simbólicos dos animais e da morte nos contos, aprofundando-se nos estudos sobre os misticismos, os símbolos e as crenças populares.

No último romance do escritor português José Saramago (1922-2010), Caim (2009), o discurso religioso é retomado como tema através de uma releitura paródica de textos bíblicos fundantes da tradição judaico-cristã. No romance, narrador e herói passeiam por cenas bíblicas questionando interpretações sedimentadas na cultura pelas teologias oficiais e dogmas da tradição. As críticas construídas no romance têm como alvo privilegiado os discursos religiosos, sobretudo a moral criada a partir de tais discursos. Este artigo tem como objetivo demonstrar como, no romance Caim a parrhesia, o franco falar, funciona como possibilidade ética diante de construções discursivas monológicas dogmáticas e retóricas. Para isso, discutiremos a relação entre o discurso literário de Saramago e o discurso religioso dogmático, destacaremos a função da paródia para apresentar novas versões de discursos já sedimentados na cultura para enfim discutir o conceito de parrhesia em Michel Foucalt (1926-1984) e possibilidades interpretativas do romance supracitado a partir desse conceito.

Este artigo examina as figurações do feminino em The Countess Cathleen, primeira peça que o escritor William Yeats escreveu para o Irish Literary Theatre, veio teatral do nacionalismo cultural irlandês. A peça foi produzida em um projeto de nação que, a fim de provar a virilidade dos homens nativos, subestimada pelo imperialismo britânico, instaurou um código de hipermasculinidade que demandava, em complemento, um código de hiperfeminilidade análogo. Atento às especificidades desse contexto de produção, o trabalho focaliza a construção da protagonista, a Condessa Cathleen, com ênfase na dicotomia entre erotismo e sacrifício. A análise permite considerar que Yeats se valeu de elementos da hagiografia como forma de heroificar a personagem como emblema da resignação feminina e, sobretudo, como modo de salientar a incompatibilidade entre o ethos sacrificial e o amor romântico.

O presente artigo reflete sobre aspectos ligados à propensão do homem pela destruição e domínio do outro por meio da violência. Nesse sentido, elencamos reflexões sobre os conceitos psicanalíticos de Eros e Thanatos, além de contribuições do pensamento de Hannah Arendt (1987; 1995; 1997), sobretudo o conceito de “Banalidade do Mal”; O mal concretizado pelo nazismo é monstruosamente banal e burocrático, ao mesmo tempo que eficiente e sistemático, levado a cabo por agentes superficiais (LECHTE, 2002). Buscar-se-á estabelecer um diálogo entre esse arcabouço teórico e três novelas do escritor austríaco Stefan Zweig, ele próprio uma vítima declaradamente pacifista do exílio imposto aos escritores judeus no período da Segunda Guerra: “A coleção invisível” (2015, [1924]), “O Livreiro Mendel” (1999, [1929]) e “Xadrez, uma novela” (2015, [1944]) têm a guerra como pano-de-fundo; O presente trabalho objetiva explorar aspectos da chamada “mitologia psicanalítica”, campo definido por Freud como obscuro. Além do caráter destruidor intrínseco à natureza humana, como postulado nos textos freudianos que abordam a guerra (1916; 1933, [1932]), destacamos o protótipo da pulsão de morte: compulsão à repetição e ao retorno do inorgânico, movimento regressivo de retorno a um estado anterior (ROUDINESCO; PLON, 1998). Ao explorar a teoria das pulsões em seu dualismo Eros/Thanatos, lançamos luzes sobre o que Arendt define como “Tempos sombrios”.

Aim of this paper is to demonstrate a proximity or even complementarity between James Hillman’s and Louis-Ferdinand Céline’s vision of human soul and human condition. Even though their cultural and intellectual context differed significantly and they both used very different forms of expression, they repeatedly invoked intimate dimension of human existence as permeated by somehow pathological, peripherial or dark aspects of being. Nevertheless, both of them shared deep interest in bottom-line dimension of being which they called “soul” and which they linked with death, darkness, weakness and which they associated with socially disapproved ways of being. Even though Hillman could be labeled as reformist and Céline as nihilist, for both of them modern society and its programming cut modern man off his deeper sense of meaningfulness or as Céline puts it in from “intimité des choses”. Questioning intellectual legacy of Enlightenment, both Céline and Hillman find soul of modern man as pathologized and threatened but at the same time as the very source of meaningfulness. Like that Hillman and Céline can be viewed not just as cultural critics but as actively deconstructing, questioning modern project and modern subjectivity

Este trabalho pretende asseverar sobre a personagem da criança no conto "O Menino", integrante do livro Sangue de Rosaura, de Luiz Canabrava. Pretende-se fazer algumas observações sobre de que forma o menino é percebido na narrativa, o que o silêncio desta figura pode pressupor e como isto reflete em sua presença no espaço de Minas Gerais que se situa. Para isso, recorreremos a teóricos que tragam algumas percepções da infância— Maria Cristina Gouvêa (2000), Anderson Luiz Nunes da Mata (2015) — e sobre a cultura mineira — Ângela Maria Guida e Joelma Sampaio Evangelista (2005), Silvio Romero (1980) — entre outros, para fomentar nossa discussão.

Eva Perón é um nome significativo na história política da Argentina, sua influência surtiu, e continua surtindo efeito, no povo desse país até os dias atuais. “Evita” foi odiada/amada em níveis extremos, tanto que foi considerada uma santa, um mito para muitas pessoas. Tomás Eloy Martínez escreveu o romance – Santa Evita (1995) – em que narra como viveu a esposa de Juan Domingo Perón. Nesta obra encontra-se muitos elementos que dão indícios da (re)mitificação de Eva, por isso tenta-se aqui, explorar como se deu a (re)construção mitológica de Eva Perón, personagem histórica no romance Santa Evita (1996) de Tomás Eloy Martínez, e ainda, expor quais foram os procedimentos adotados pelo autor que (re)construíram esse mito. Utiliza-se, como base teórica, Linda Hutcheon (1991) e Fleck (2007) no conceito de metaficção historiográfica, Mircea Eliade (1991) e Martín Cezar Feijó (1984) no que cabe à análise do Mito. Esta breve pesquisa se dará a partir da análise bibliográfica e de forma comparativa entre a história e a escrita ficcional do romance Santa Evita (1996) de Tomás Eloy Martínez, discute-se os elementos utilizados e o caminho percorrido para a (re)construção do mito Eva Perón na obra citada.

The purpose of the present study was to verify the linguistic behavior of the informers of Atlas Linguístico do Brasil (ALiB - Linguistic Atlas of Brazil) (CARDOSO et al., 2014) when referring to the feminine form of president and its variants: a presidente and a presidenta. The informants considered for this paper belong to the capitals of the southern region of Brazil, these being: Curitiba, Florianópolis and Porto Alegre. The researched corpus is composed of 24 surveys and follows the ALiB methodology. In order to substantiate the data analysis, information contained in the compendiums related to studies of gender inflection in the Portuguese language, in the main grammars of the Portuguese language, as well as in dictionaries was considered. A recent academic paper by Santana (2016) was also researched, which was carried out from surveys in cities of the capital and of the interior of the Northeastern Region, where it was verified that the results, in a general manner, accompanied the same direction of the present study. Finally, it is affirmed that the results obtained in the present research point out to a preference for the variant without the gender inflection a presidente, despite the fact that the inflected format, presidenta, is included in the information a significant number of times.

This paper is a theoretical discussion and a literature review on the relativization strategies by tracing a brief explanation of the existing three strategies: 1. The relative standard; 2. The relative standard with resumptive; 3. The relative pied piping; 4. The relative cutter; 5. The relative cutter with resumptive, describing its syntactic functions. It revisits the theoretical assumptions of Sociolinguistics Labovian, discussing the main concepts, ideas and perspectives correlating with a brief socio-historical background of the city Feira de Santana, located in Bahia's semi-arid region also known as an agricultural area. In general, this work brings together discussions on the socio-history of Brazilian Portuguese (BP) - taking into account aspects such as strong language contact and irregular linguistic transmission - and the social history of the Bahian city of Feira de Santana - emphasizing their commercial characteristics, the migration factor and its geographical position. In addition, we seek to list a syntactical order variation in the spoken Feirense Portuguese, represented by actual speech data extracted from the project The Portuguese of Bahia semi-arid - Phase 3: samples of spoken language in Feira de Santana, Bahia, based on the group studies of Portuguese Language (NELP), describing the possible linguistic and social factors of this variation, in order to spread partial results and substantiate the research of the dissertation entitled "The relative clauses in the spoken Portuguese in Feira de Santana."

This paper shows the Compilation stage of LAPELINC (in english, Corpus Linguistics Research Laboratory) method, that integrates three fundamental objects to built digital corpora: physical document (in Portuguese, DF); digital document image (in Portuguese, DDI); digital document text (in Portuguese, DDT). This stage is responsible for change the digital codification from visual-image to verbal-text, this fact uses transcription. Here we consider the limits and possibilities of digital medium for recording writting.

The CE-DOHS project - Electronic Corpus of Historical Documents of the Sertão, which integrates the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies in Digital Humanities (neiHD), of the State University of Feira de Santana (UEFS), aims to carry out the digital edition of texts Of the DOHS - Sertão Historical Documents, of the Vozes do Sertão project in Data: history, peoples and formation of Brazilian Portuguese, one of the projects of the Núcleo de Estudos em Língua Portuguesa (NELP), UEFS, as well as its morphological and syntactic annotation , Elaborating an annotated diachronic corpus that serves as an electronic resource for the linguistic study of Brazilian Portuguese. Most DOHS documents, dated and localized - which are now also in digital version in CE-DOHS - are handwritten letters from the 19th and 20th centuries (1084 letters, 422 senders), edited mainly by Carneiro (2005), Who invested in the search and organization of documentary collections that could contribute to the process of socio-historical reconstruction of Brazilian Portuguese, both popular and cultured - especially Portuguese in the interior of Bahia. In addition to collections consisting of epistolary documentation, there are also handwritten books, as well as printed texts and oral texts. The material available at the Bank serves, however, not only researchers interested in analyzes of linguistic aspects, but in aspects of the diffusion of writing, reading, textual, historical, political, economic and social transmissions, among others. In this work, the emphasis is on the Letts in Sisal collection, consisting of 91 letters of awkwardness, edited by Santiago (2012), available in the CE-DOHS, in the semidiplomatic and modernized versions; Are personal letters, written throughout the 20th century, by 43 sertanejos from the semi-arid Bahia. This collection has a special relevance for Historical Linguistics, since it is a representative sample of the writing by unskilled hands - a term consecrated by the paleographic tradition -, considering the difficulty of finding texts that reflect everyday writing, vernacular, products of individuals with low level of literacy.

This article presents the results of a comparative longitudinal research carried out in six classes of French public schools from 2012 to 2015 (5-7 years old) in order to observe the evolution of children’s alterity-ethnocentric tendencies through their speeches and those of their teachers as part of the implementation of an interventionist and collaborative project of Languages Awakening (experimental groups) and without any specific project (control groups). The final objective was to verify the real impact that a Languages Awakening Approach based on intercultural and attitudinal skills might have on foreign language learning.

In this essay, we aim to present the necessary elements for a transdisciplinary approach of the study of argumentation in order to apply it to the teaching-learning process of argumentative texts reading and production. Assuming that mono-disciplinary perspectives in Linguistics are limited to deal with the complexity argumentation, due to its commitment to the production of basic knowledge in which prevails knowledge fragmentation, it is postulated that such a task could only be successfully carried out if Linguistics is conceived as a critical applied science. Thus, it is argued that the formal structure of argumentation must be deduced from the language practices that engender the textual genres imbued, directly or indirectly, with the aim of persuading. Two paths are suggested. The first one involves the construction of a theoretical and methodological apparatus, from the appropriation of theoretical constructs of ancient rhetoric, the new rhetoric and linguistic theories as pragmatic, textual linguistics, argumentative semantics, theories of genres, analysis speech, enunciation theories, conversation analysis, sociology, cultural studies, philosophy, language philosophy and others, according to the objectives of the teaching-learning process. The second path consists in the construction of a theoretical methodological device capable of substantiating practices of analysis and production of argumentative texts that are conceived as extremely complex objects.

In this article, we present the results of a pedagogical intervention for the teaching of Portuguese Language, elaborated with the objective of searching for alternatives for the insertion of the literature produced by writers from Juazeiro-BA, in the literacy activities of a 9th grade class at Elementary School Helena Celestino Gomes located in Juazeiro, Bahia. As a result of the intervention students produced a digital library in which a list of writers from Juazeiro, their biographies and a selection of texts made by the students were made available. In order to carry out the activities that resulted in the production of this library, the students carried out researches at the Municipal Public Library and in personal collections. They also interviewed writers. The activities were performed in groups, valuing students' collaboration and participation.

In this text, we analyze the Portuguese term jararaca and the images on the cover and in the main article of Veja magazine of March 16th, 2016. Based on theoretical and methodological support of French Discourse Analysis, we consider these term and images as part of a media event, containing political discourse and meaning displacement. We start the essay with the analysis of a former Brazilian President Luís Inácio Lula da Silva statement in the context of Lava Jato Operation in order to discuss the political, legal and media tension that occurred in Brazil in March, 2016. Meaning displacement refers to the fact that the Portuguese term jararaca was repeated and caused effects of contrary meaning to what the former president Luís Inácio Lula da Silva desired, taken in equivalent words or in other semiosis, under the aegis of another discursive formation. This discursive process demarcates the political struggle that was established in the country in the first half of 2016, resumed in this text by the metaphor of a soccer game, as thought by Pêcheux (2002). Courtine ( 2006, p. 82) highlights the role of memory in the gambling operations that enables the creation and dispersal of political discourse: "If the interdiscourse therefore organizes the recurrence and the regrouping of formulations, also acts as a cavity , rupture or displacement." Furthermore, he adds that the memory is also made of forgetfulness because the interdiscourse "is the oblivion of statements producer. Memory and forgetfulness cannot be separated in the enunciation of the political discourse."

This paper aims to discuss the silence and its operating modes in the Portuguese Language textbook of Dialogue Collection. Based on the French Discourse Analysis. Results showed that access to multiple meanings is forbidden and students are only allowed to copy and transcribe explicit parts of the text. The text interpretation process proposed in the analyzed questions requires a passive subject who just repeats the explicit meanings of the text.
