Necronarrativas em três romances contemporâneos brasileiros
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-07-30) AUTIELLO, Sheila Lopes Maués; RUSSO, Vincenzo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4108882812232683; CASTILO, Luís Heleno Montoril del; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3519128535996125; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2507-5346
This thesis deals with the occurrence of necronarratives in Contemporary Brazilian Literature from the novels Pssica (2015), by Edyr Augusto; Enterre seus mortos (2018), by Ana Paula Maia and A Morte e o Meteoro (2019) by Joca Reiners Terron. The objective is to analyze, from an analytical-comparative approach, how the narratives fictionalize the necropolitical processes of Brazilian society in the last five years. The research proposes the analysis of the novels from three critical axes: the first corresponds to the expendable bodies, which will be based on the concepts of naked life, by Giorgio Agamben (2002) and precarious life, by Judith Butler (2019); the second, concerns the predatory presence of "Gore" businesses, which is based on the studies on "Gore" Capitalism, by Sayak Valencia (2010) and, finally, the third, which relates to the recurrence of the image of the undead or zombie, having as its reading key the studies of Deleuze and Guattari (2010) and Leo Barros (2020). The study focuses on the thematic analysis of the works, despite making brief incursions into other narrative elements. It is concluded that the novels studied are part of a structuring force of Romanesque composition, which aesthetically represents the Brazilian necropolitical processes, which I called necronarrative. Therefore, it is understood that the works analyzed, are part of an excerpt from the Brazilian novel that is concerned with aesthetically problematizing life starting from the necropolitics (MBEMBE, 2018). The characterization of necronarratives occurs, above all, by the representations of the precariousness of contemporary bodies; the emergence of criminal markets that flourish in groups subjected to deadly conditions and the initiation of symbolic processes of social zombification. It is, however, a study that identifies a trend and not a generalization.

No resflor da idade: a velhice em Corpo de baile
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-02-28) HENRIQUE, Rosalina Albuquerque; CASTILO, Luís Heleno Montoril del; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3519128535996125; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2507-5346; HOLANDA, Sílvio Augusto de Oliveira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0928175455054278; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3971-9007
In this thesis, a discussion is proposed around the figurations of oldness based on the narratives of Corpo de baile (1956), Camilo, Cara-de-Bronze, Liodoro, Manuelzão and Rosalina, written by Guimarães Rosa (1908-1967), whose stories make us discuss about their human condition that remains unfinished when the evocation of the following discourse is marked: that the current old condition does not destine them to nothing. As opposed to this, they continue to feed feelings, desires and projects. When highlighting the importance of Guimarães Rosa’s literary production for the Brazilian literature scenario, some considerations about oldness (from yesterday to the third age of today) and its correlation with death will be noted. For this, the work is improved in bibliographical research, as in Beauvoir (2018), Ariès (2014), Elias (2001), Bosi (1994), Bolsanello, A.; Bolsanello, M. (1981), Kübler-Ross (1981, 1996), Debert (1988, 1999) and Cícero (2006, 2011), and also produced productions of students from Guimarães Rosa as Rónai (2020), Oliveira; Schröder (2020), Salles (2020), Leonel; Nascimento (2018), Diogo (2017), Mendonça (2013), Lucchese (2011), Ferraz (2010), Holanda (2009), Fantini (2008), Zilberman (2007), Xisto (1991), Brasil (1969), Ramos (1968), Candido (1964), Lins (1963), Secco (1994, 2003), Martins (1996, 2001), Passos (2000, 2007), Roncari (2007, 2008), Atroch (2013, 2017), Marchelli (2016, 2018), Nunes (1957, 1998, 2000, 2009) and Vasconcelos (1996, 1997, 1998). The theoretical scope is that of the Aesthetics of reception, proposed by Jauss (1994, 1982, 2002) through a hermeneutics addressed on the reader based on Gadamer (2002), in which the primary interest lies in the way the work of art should be received, taking into account the relationship between text and reader or even between effect and reception, without losing sight of the importance of the value and aesthetic experience of the work received and for those destined, assuming, in this sense, a new posture for the reader in which the literary work only exists when it is motivated by this subject, central to both aesthetic and historical knowledge. Finally, based on the aesthetic-recepcional method, discussions pertaining to oldness in Corpo de baile will be established: the relationship of the individual with time, the world and with his own history will be left aside.

A terra dos meninos pelados e o estado de exceção: um projeto estético graciliânico
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-06) BORGES, Lilliân Alves
Graciliano Ramos, canon author of Brazilian literature, is more recognized for his adult literary productions, such as “Vidas Secas”, “São Bernardo”, “Memórias do Cárcere”. However, Ramos also left to his readers, narratives aimed at children's audiences, such as “Histórias de Alexandre”, “A terra dos meninos pelados”, “Pequena História da República”, and the short stories "Minsk" and "Luciana." Reflecting on how criticism has favored some of Graciliano Ramos' works in his analysis and leaving aside, especially, children's narratives, we have decided to ponder and think about the Graciliano Ramos aesthetic project and how this necessarily pervades all his literary productions and also as the analysis of an Exception State goes beyond the classical concept put forward by some theorists, such as Giorgio Agamben
