(Universidade Estadual de Campinas, 2012-02-28) NASCIMENTO, Maria de Fátima do; KOCH, Ingedore Grunfeld Villaça
This dissertation, about the literary criticism of Benedito Nunes, divided in two parts, is based on a variety of textual genres (attempts to write novels, poems, aphorisms, chronicles on science, poetry and philosophy, interviews, criticism on poetry and novels). In other words, this study is about Nunes‟ first texts on some newspapers of Belém do Pará: “Supplement of Art and Literature”, on the newspaper Folha do Norte (1946-1951), in which the author starts his career as a literary critic, also writing on magazines such as Encontro (1948) and Norte (1952). This study is also based on Benedito Nunes‟ writings on other newspapers of Brazil, such as the “Sunday Supplement” of Jornal do Brasil and on the supplements of journals like O Estado de São Paulo and O Estado de Minas Gerais (texts containing analysis of poems, novels and philosophy); and, still, Nunes‟ first books: O mundo de Clarice Lispector (1966) and O dorso do tigre (1969). The latter causes the writer to be considered one of the exponents of modern literary criticism in the second half of the twentieth century in Brazil, mainly of the works of art of writers who published from the decade of 1940 on, namely, Clarice Lispector, Guimarães Rosa and João Cabral de Melo Neto, just to name a few. The compilation of the texts published on journals, besides enabling the identification of the main readings of Benedito Nunes, which were incorporated to the conception of his criticism, considering some Christian philosophers as Saint Thomas Aquinas, Pascal, and, particularly, a precursor of existentialism, Kierkegaard, which will be constant in the analysis of the Brazilian author, makes it possible to trace the intellectual path followed by Benedito Nunes, specially as a literary critic. The writer will, lately, add the ideas of Sartre and Heidegger to his analysis. Specifically considering Heidegger, who Nunes studies throughout his whole life, it is possible to see the ontological conception of artistic creation by verbal language, which, to the German philosopher, corresponds to the foundation of the self by the word. Regarding the division of this study, the first part contains the intellectual path Benedito Nunes followed, as well as analysis of the material compiled from the newspapers and from the two books of this Brazilian critic. The second part contains a sample of the material which was compiled.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-05-22) GUIMARÃES, Maria Stella Faciola Pessôa; CASTRO, Edna Maria Ramos de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4702941668727146
The works about Brazilian intellectuals with activities in Amazon are small numbered and usually have gap, mainly when they are analysed out of social context, which makes it harder to know the ideas of those thinkers. In this sense, this dissertation chooses an analysis methodology of Benedito Nunes' thinking based on his texts concerning the Amazon region and relating them with its respective creation contexts. Benedito Nunes was born and always lived in Belém. He has an expressive intellectual production. He won admiration, in Brazil and abroad, for his engagement in the field of philosophy and literary criticism. He wrote seminal papers about Heidegger, Nietzsche, Guimarães Rosa and Clarice Lispector. But the thinker from Pará also wrote essays, granted interviews, wrote forewords, took part in debates and delivered lectures on reflections on history, society and culture from the Amazon, Pará and Belém. In this sense, therefore, he reflects about his own region, and this aspect allows relate him to the study field of Brazilian social thinking. This document analyzes 11 texts by the author in question, duly contextualized, aiming to present a new possibility of reading the works of professor Benedito: as Amazon interpreter that uses, in order to understand the region, the heritage of universal thought that he learned during his accomplished studies. Thus, this dissertation champions the inclusion, as research object of social sciences, of this less revealed part of Benedito's interdisciplinary collection, built during singular intellectual trajectory.
