Download or read book The Anthology in Portugal written by Patricia Anne Odber de Baubeta and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book breaks new ground in considering the nature and function of anthologies of poetry and short stories in twentieth-century Portugal. It tackles the main theoretical issues, identifies a significant body of critical writing on the relationship between anthologies, literary history and the canon, and proposes an approach that might be designated Descriptive Anthology Studies. The author aims to achieve a full understanding of the role of anthologies in the literary polysystem. Moreover, this study considers anthologies published in Portugal in the early years of the twentieth-century, the influential figures who made them, the works they selected, and who read them. It also focuses on the principal publishing houses of the 1940s and 50s, and how their literary directors shaped public taste and promoted intercultural transfer. The author reveals tensions between conservative, nostalgic anthologies that promote an idyllic vision of rural Portugal, and collections of poems that question and challenge the status quo, whether in respect of the colonial wars or repressed female sexuality. The last part of the book explores anthology production in the period following the Revolution of 1974, observing the co-existence of traditional anthologising activity with new trends and innovations, and noting the role of women, both as anthologists and anthology items.
Download or read book Antologia de contos written by Lídia Jorge and published by Leya. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mais conhecida como romancista, Lídia Jorge, uma das grandes damas da literatura portuguesa contemporânea, ganha finalmente uma antologia de contos à altura de seu talento e importância. Selecionados por Marlise Vaz Bridi, professora de Literatura Portuguesa da Universidade de São Paulo, os textos são inéditos no Brasil. Os contos de Lídia Jorge se destacam pelos motivos aparentemente simples, ao mesmo tempo em que demonstram a qualidade da construção das narrativas por meio da precisão da linguagem, da escolha do ponto de vista que amplifica ambiguidades e sugestões, pelo fino desenho das personagens e dos ambientes e, sobretudo, pela articulação entre a subjetividade do mundo ficcional com a objetivação do mundo real. Segundo a organizadora, "se tais qualidades de Lídia Jorge não são exclusividade de seus contos, sem dúvida eles são uma oportunidade privilegiada para verificar o 'tremor de água dentro de um cristal' que cada uma dessas narrativas podem produzir." Selecionados entre os volumes Marido e outros contos (1997), O belo adormecido (2004) e Praça de Londres (2008), os contos de Lídia Jorge são uma oportunidade de contato com uma nova vertente da obra desta escritora que, através de uma escrita por diversos aspectos tão bem arquitetada, resultará certamente numa visão mais complexa e reveladora da própria humanidade. Lídia Jorge nasceu em 1946, no Algarve, obtendo destaque e reconhecimento desde o seu romance de estreia, O dia dos prodígios (1980). A sua obra encontra-se traduzida em muitas línguas e países, sendo recebida pelos críticos nacionais e internacionais com grande interesse. Pela editora LeYa, além de Combateremos a Sombra e Antologia de contos, Lídia também lançou seu romance A noite das mulheres cantoras (2012), finalista do Prêmio Portugal Telecom de Literatura e o Prêmio Passo Fundo Zaffari eamp; Bourbon de Literatura.

Download or read book Nenhum olhar written by José Luís Peixoto and published by Dublinense. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Livro vencedor do Prêmio José Saramago O cotidiano de uma vila rural do Alentejo é matéria para o aguçado olhar de José Luís Peixoto sobre o sofrimento humano. Os amores, as traições, a violência, as mortes e o luto atravessam o dia a dia dos personagens, que ganham voz nos múltiplos narradores, aproximando o leitor de sentimentos muito vivos. A cozinheira, o serralheiro, o pastor: eis a história de duas gerações que colocou Peixoto entre os mais importantes escritores contemporâneos. No espaço de um ano, entre 2000 e 2001, o autor lançou Morreste-me, este Nenhum olhar e A criança em ruínas. Entre poesia, memória, narração e ficção, em diferentes doses em cada volume, esse trio parece anunciar temas, olhares, formas de expressão e espaços que, com mais ou menos evidência, viriam a surgir na sua obra. Essa espécie de trilogia na obra de José Luís Peixoto atravessa gêneros e funda não só uma literatura, mas um universo. Agora, com esta reedição de Nenhum olhar, as três estreias do autor estão finalmente reunidas no Brasil.
Download or read book Chains of Gold written by Marcelo J. Borges and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did migrants from southern Portugal choose Argentina instead of following the traditional path to Brazil? Starting with this question, this book explores how, at the turn of the twentieth century, rural Europeans developed distinctive circuits of transatlantic labor migration linked to diverse immigrant communities in the Americas. It looks at transoceanic moves in the larger context of migration systems, examining their connections and the crucial role of social networks in migrants geographic mobility and adaptation. Combining regional and local perspectives on both sides of the Atlantic, Chains of Gold provides a vivid account of the trajectories of migrant men and women as they moved from rural Portugal to contrasting places of settlement in the Argentine pampas and Patagonia.

Book excerpt: “Antes de os tiros terem começado, o futuro seria sempre melhor.” Às vésperas da proclamação da independência de Angola, uma família portuguesa se vê forçada a buscar refúgio na metrópole, abandonando a casa, os pertences e a terra onde, anos antes, encontrara prosperidade. Com a capital Luanda em estado de sítio, mãe e filhos embarcam em um dos últimos voos providenciados para a evacuação dos colonos, deixando para trás o pai, que havia sido preso por guerrilheiros. Ao chegar a Portugal levando apenas as malas de mão, sem ter quem os receba, são encaminhados a um hotel do Instituto de Apoio ao Retorno dos Nacionais, onde experimentam o estigma que se abate sobre os retornados — que vivenciam o oposto ao “avanço” colonial —, sobretudo aqueles que, como a família desta história, não pertenciam à classe privilegiada dos administradores da colônia. Narrado por Rui, o filho adolescente já nascido em Angola (e para quem a metrópole era uma ideia abstrata), o romance aborda de maneira sensível um dos episódios mais sombrios da história portuguesa: o retorno para Portugal de mais de meio milhão de pessoas, trabalhadores vindos sobretudo de Angola e Moçambique. O narrador se vê às voltas com um mundo cheio de racismo e violência, com questões como culpa e vergonha, direitos e identidade despontando, à medida que amadurece e se desilude com a vida na metrópole e com a situação da sua e de tantas outras famílias. Uma das ficcionistas mais importantes da literatura portuguesa contemporânea, Dulce Maria Cardoso trata, neste O retorno, de um trauma coletivo a partir da própria história, transformando a memória daqueles dias conturbados numa ficção única sobre o desterro e a capacidade humana de recomeçar.

Download or read book How Peripheral is the Periphery Translating Portugal Back and Forth written by João Ferreira Duarte and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-18 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a result of the need to reflect upon Portugal’s position from the viewpoint of the literary assets imported and exported through translation. It brings together a number of scholars working in the field of Translation Studies directly concerned with the Portuguese cultural system in order to analyse this question from various theoretical perspectives and from case studies of translation flows and movements in Portuguese culture. By Translating Portugal Back and Forth, the articles discuss issues such as: how can one draw the borderline between a peripheral and a semi-peripheral system? Is this borderline useful or necessary? How peripheral is the Portuguese cultural system as far as translation transfers are concerned? How stable or pacific has this positioning been? Does the economic and historical perception of Portugal as peripheral entail that, from the viewpoint of translation, it would behave similarly? By addressing some of these questions, and as shown by the (second) subtitle – Essays in Honour of João Ferreira Duarte –, the volume pays homage to one of the most prominent Translation Studies scholars in Portugal, who has extensively reflected on the binary discourse on translation, its metaphors and images.
