In the chapter that lends its title to the work, the author weaves an exceptional analysis of the act of reading a text. He carefully desacralizes the relationship between intention and work, a recurring theme in academic criticism that shaped passions and beliefs in the 20th century, and which is reflected in the chapter dissecting Graciliano's Angústia. Otherness, the understanding of the other, and the literary are all present in the essay on Pessoa. From this analysis, the reader delves into the soul of writing and its boundaries, with a range of references from Capote to João Antônio and Piglia and from Kafka to Borges. Along with the chapter on literary workshops, this is a must-read for young writers and is also essential for communications students. The book concludes with Castello's five greatest Brazilian poets of the 20th century: Drummond, Cabral, Bandeira, Vinicius, and Cecília Meireles.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159227875580,"sku":"9788501074645","price":59.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/0a70489b735068b41f73355e07939ee2.jpg?v=1778321532"},{"product_id":"e-proprio-do-humano","title":"It is human nature","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHuman beings constantly act inappropriately or inappropriately, behaving sometimes like gods, sometimes like machines, sometimes like animals.

One of the country's most important translators and literary critics, he is also a magazine editor and language scholar—in addition to being one of the most well-known, appreciated, and award-winning Brazilian poets. What is most impressive, however, is his ability to navigate these activities with coherence and rigor. His ability to express himself in plurality. Lucchesi moves between dream and reality. Between meaning and abandonment. Nothing is more natural for a poet who, like the alchemists, works with opposites, with Apollonian madness and Dionysian sobriety. There is a ceaseless movement in search of a lost meaning, an interpretation of the world. A MEMÓRIA DE ULISSES, a collection of the author's texts, offers a unique opportunity to reread or discover an important part of Lucchesi's literary creation. The collection also includes some texts published in the press and the unpublished *Rachel Jardim: Anos 40*, about the novelist and memoirist from Minas Gerais. Divided into five parts, the book presents nearly 50 of Lucchesi's best and most interesting texts. Here, he discusses Ibsen, Montaigne, Nietzsche, and Gunther Grass. He revisits Descartes, analyzes the poetics of Quixote, dissects Schopenhauer, and journeys into the universe of Goethe. *A MEMÓRIA DE ULISSES* confirms the author's tendency to deconstruct the structure of the text, to \"deceive words.\" Possessing profound verbal precision, Lucchesi is no ordinary author. His texts eschew simplicity while remaining open to creativity. The result is a blend of prose and poetry, in a language that demands the reader's attention.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159276175612,"sku":"9788520007341","price":79.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/76e0e1aac3cc473e6fae2fa767a27ad2.jpg?v=1778319070"},{"product_id":"ficcoes-de-um-gabinete-ocidental","title":"Fictions of a Western Cabinet","description":"The essays in *Fictions of a Western Cabinet*, by Marco Lucchesi, take the reader on a journey through the most diverse fields of knowledge and present the thoughts of one of the most expressive intellectuals of his generation.

Lucchesi engages in dialogue with thinkers from all eras. In *The History of the Future*, he discusses his intellectual formation and demonstrates his search for freedom. Marx, Le Goff, Antonio Vieira, and others are invited to the debate on the historian's craft and history itself. In \"A Machadiana,\" the author explores the work of Machado de Assis and presents subtle connections between the author's intelligence and richness and the meanings attributed to his work by a wide range of readers, from Augusto Meyer to Clarice Lispector, among many others. \"The Earth and Its Crystals\" is a conversation that eschews clichés. Álvares de Azevedo, Euclides da Cunha, Guimarães Rosa, Jorge de Lima, and Frei Antônio do Rosário are the interlocutors. In \"Poetry and Mathematics,\" the author introduces the reader to the world of fractal geometry and the beauty of these objects, in addition to presenting the ideas of Leibnitz, Hardy, and Poincaré. He also discusses the relationship between art and mathematics and the cultural perspective of this field of knowledge. With \"Fictions of a Western Cabinet,\" Marcos Lucchesi demonstrates his affinity with the ancient \"cabinet men.\" In bygone eras, they held a prominent place among intellectuals. Coming to dictionary in the late 16th century, the word \"cabinet\" referred to the study rooms where humanists met.

The roots of our civilization, the shifting canons of beauty, the false that becomes true and changes the course of history, the obsession with conspiracy, the emblematic heroes of the grand narrative, art forms, aphorisms, and parodies are some of the highlights of this book, further enriched by the images the author often projected throughout his speeches.

Rosa found in the prestigious intellectual from Belém not only the philosophical interlocutor par excellence, but also a critic attentive to the formal experiments of modernism and the creative and speculative power of literary language. The result is a thought-provoking dialogue in which philosophy does not overwhelm literature, but contemplates it in its imposing otherness.

Originally, the book won the award for best work of the year from the São Paulo Association of Art Critics (APCA). Lya skillfully and sensitively interweaves memories, sometimes in the first person—without this implying autobiography—and sometimes in the third person—without this implying objectivity. \"My literature doesn't emerge from calm waters: it speaks of my perplexities as a human being, it oozes from cracks where something stirs, which, unattainable, challenges me. I almost always write about what I don't know,\" reveals the author. With her delicate prose, almost intimately whispering truths into the reader's ear, Lya discusses the discoveries of a child intrigued by life and its mysteries, about the maturation of human beings, with their conflicts and joys, their courage and failures. According to Lya, \"there are themes that recur, questions that perpetuate; concerns coincide between the writer and their readers, between those who give testimony and those who watch.\" From this, she invites the reader into a game, combining lived and imagined stories, playing, enchanting, and, above all, making them think. Gradually, the reader becomes an accomplice, a friendly shoulder, a listening ear, a heart sometimes tight, sometimes surrendered, questioning alongside Lya about the anguish of not knowing what comes next, about loneliness, about each of us. \"The River in the Middle\" is a fascinating book, in which everyone will discover a little about themselves and in which it is possible to seek encouragement and a little more self-knowledge. • Lya Luft is considered one of the greatest writers in the country.

It corresponded to an aesthetic theory, not always clearly delineated, much less unified, but which aimed above all to guide and define a renewal, formulating in new terms the concept of literature and the writer.

Far from a free society, we are, in our imposing culture so full of obligations, prisoners suffering from what the author calls the \"have to\" syndrome. \"The 'have to' is a very cruel slave driver. Having to be thin, beautiful, intelligent, strong, rich, blah blah blah. I, always out of line, am struck by the cruelty of the physical 'have to be.' I think we value ourselves too little as thinking human beings.\" From the search for eternal youth to ethics in politics, including family transformations, Lya Luft shows how entangled we are in oppressive practices and that it is important to take control of our lives and the path of our society and culture.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175421985020,"sku":"9788501089526","price":64.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/821eb78aeee2ad35794f5c6a70a5ff9e.jpg?v=1778322352"},{"product_id":"na-cobertura-de-rubem-braga","title":"On Rubem Braga's roof","description":"In his unique penthouse apartment in Ipanema, surrounded by trees and vegetable gardens, Rubem Braga led a somewhat unusual life amidst the urbanity of Rio de Janeiro's South Zone.

The essays were written between 1954 and 1956 and published in 1957, but they remain relevant today. The book belongs to the author's period in which he aimed to analyze and criticize bourgeois culture and society. Here, Barthes carried out an ideological critique of the language of so-called mass culture and provoked the first semiological dismantling of this language. \"By treating relative representations as systems of signs, it would be possible to reveal in detail the mystification that transforms petty-bourgeois culture into universal nature,\" he states in the book's opening text. The author reflected on some myths of French everyday life, taking as his starting point a feeling of impatience with the naturalness with which the press, art, cinema, and common sense masked reality in the service of ideological interests. \"Nature was confused with History.\" And the notion of myth seemed to the thinker to designate false evidence. In his essays, he explored current events and aspects of everyday life (the world of catch, a plate, plastics, women, children, toys, car models, advertising) without straying from semiology. Having dismantled the myth, the author goes on to analyze it as a semiological system.

The works of Bernardo Carvalho, Rubem Fonseca, Nélida Piñon, Milton Hatoum, Luiz Ruffato, Adriana Lisboa, João Gilberto Noll, André Sant'Ana, Silviano Santiago, and Cristóvão Tezza were studied by the author. The book is part of the Contemporary Collection, organized by Evando Nascimento. \"The attempt here will be to capture what is significant in current Brazilian fiction, in order to discern the continuities and, above all, the ruptures produced by contemporary writers,\" explains Karl Erik Schøllhammer. The concept of contemporaneity is the subject of reflection and comparison with recurring terms associated with its meaning, such as present, modern, postmodern, among others. The author analyzes various works of fiction, both collectively and individually, and contextualizes them within the Brazilian context. The literary critic also considers the insertion of these works into the globalized world. Another contribution to the debate on innovations in contemporary Brazilian literature is his reflections on the styles most frequently used in recent years, such as naturalism, hyperrealism, and the short story, and their main exponents. With these writings, the author believes the work can serve as a reference for literary criticism studies conducted in Brazil.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175746519292,"sku":"9788520009239","price":49.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/1cefb84bda4a95ab046169d0e7a53d9e.jpg?v=1778321576"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/critica-literaria.oembed?page=6","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
