Título: Machado de Assis: literatura, discursos e questões raciais
Autor: Casella, Cesar Augusto de Oliveira
Primeiro orientador: Salgueiro, Maria Aparecida Ferreira de Andrade
Abstract: Machado de Assis: literature, discourses and racial issues proposes a discursive approach to Machado de Assis's work to understand the specific historical context in which it was produced and the way that it deals with racial issues of its time. The thesis is organized into four chapters. The first chapter deals with the immense and diverse critical fortune about Machado de Assis based on the different figures – the author-functions – that were constituted around him, projecting the new figure of the afro-descendant writer. The second chapter seeks to investigate the conditions of production of Machado de Assis's texts, in historical terms and related with the constituent discourses present in a slave-owning and Europeanized society, seeking to position these texts in relation to the abolitionist discourse. The third chapter presents analyses of chosen stories, which seek to show that the black characters present in certain works by Machado de Assis allows to glimpse an ethnic identification for these texts. The fourth chapter presents some reflections that allow to subsume a discursive position for Machado de Assis in relation to racial issues – slavery, racism, abolitionism etc. – of his time

Título: Denunciar o presente sob a pena do tragicômico: humor e resistência em João Melo e Pepetela

Abstract: João Melo and Pepetela are Angolan writers whose works have already been consolidated, not only in Angola, but outside their home country. However, they are still authors, for various reasons, little studied and their works have practically not gone beyond the spaces of Lusophony. This research seeks to emphasize how the works of these two writers, in addition to dialoging with national themes, have characteristics that transcend the Angolan space, becoming works of a universal nature. To this end, we consider the presence of the laughable or the tragicomic in some of their narratives as a poetic way that is structured in a writing that goes beyond the direct denunciation of Angolan social issues. In other words: this thesis seeks to study some narratives by João Melo and Pepetela that, through the tragicomic way, find a poetic way to give new meaning to the present through irony, to sharply point out the historical and social inconsistencies experienced in Angola. We choose the works Jaime Bunda – agente secreto (2001) and Jaime Bunda e a morte do americano (2003) by Pepetela; and O dia em que Charles Bossangwa chegou à América (2020) by João Melo. The critical support for this investigation is based on literary theory, psychoanalysis and sociology, in addition, of course, to critical studies by researchers of Angolan literature. We consider that, through the penalty of irony, the authors inaugurate the discourse of dystopia, which provides support for these works to go beyond Lusophone spaces. The humor found in the chosen works places them, in our view, on the canonical level of universal literature and, in a reinvigorated and resistant way, the authors deal with the ills of contemporary Angolan history; João Melo y Pepetela son escritores angoleños cuyas obras ya se han consolidado, no solo en Angola, sino fuera de su país de origen. Sin embargo, siguen siendo autores, por diversos motivos, poco estudiados y sus obras prácticamente no han traspasado los espacios de la lusofonía. Esta investigación busca enfatizar cómo las obras de estos dos escritores, además de dialogar con temas nacionales, tienen características que trascienden el espacio angoleño, convirtiéndose en obras de carácter universal. Para ello, consideramos la presencia de lo risible o lo tragicómico en algunas de sus narrativas como una forma poética que se estructura en una escritura que va más allá de la denuncia directa de las problemáticas sociales angoleñas. En otras palabras: esta tesis busca estudiar algunas narrativas de João Melo y Pepetela que, por medio de la vía tragicómica, encuentran una manera poética de dar un nuevo significado al presente a través de la ironía, para señalar con agudeza las inconsistencias históricas y sociales vividas en Angola. Elegimos las obras “Jaime Bunda — agente secreto” (2001) y “Jaime Bunda e a morte do americano” (2003), de Pepetela; y “O dia em que Charles Bossangwa chegou à América” (2020) de João Melo. El sustento crítico de esta investigación se basa en la Teoría Literaria, en el Psicoanálisis y en la Sociología, además, por supuesto, de estudios críticos realizados por investigadores de la literatura angoleña. Consideramos que, a través de un tono irónico, los autores inauguran el discurso de la distopía, que brinda soporte para que estas obras vayan más allá de los espacios lusófonos. El humor presente en las obras elegidas las sitúa, a nuestro juicio, en el nivel canónico de la literatura universal y, de forma revitalizada y resistente, los autores abordan los males de la historia angoleña contemporánea

Título: História social enquanto tragédia: leitura de Luta de gigantes, O olho de vidro e O senhor do paço de Ninães (de Camilo Castelo Branco)
Autor: Oliveira, Fabiana de Paula Lessa

Abstract: The 19th century witnessed profound transformations, a consequence of the Industrial Revolution, which provoked the emergence of the proletariat in large cities, and the French Revolution, which, with its ideal of Liberty, Equality and Fraternity, altered social relations. Absolutism gave way to liberalism. Consequently, economically, free competition was established and, politically, individual freedom was defended. Capitalist and liberal, the bourgeoisie built a materialist civilization, developed capitalism and controlled politics. In this historical-social context, the novel asserts itself as the hegemonic genre to represent bourgeois values and literature becomes democratized. The objective of this thesis is to analyze, in a comparative perspective, the historical novels of Camilo Castelo Branco (1825-1890), in dialogue with the so-called contemporary novel. Our focus is on the historical novel: Luta de Gigantes (1865), O Olho de Vidro (1866) and O Senhor do Paço de Ninães (1867). Here Camilo revisits the last three centuries of Portuguese history: the disappearance of King D. Sebastião (1554-1578) in Alcácer-Quibir, the loss of independence in 1580, the Revolution of 1640, the war of restoration (1640-1668) and the Inquisition (1536-1821), analyzes them critically, points out the intertwining of the individual with the collective and brings to the center of the narrative the concept of history as a tragic story. For Camilo, repetition and the unknown never cease to haunt man; El siglo XIX fue testigo de profundas transformaciones, consecuencias de la Revolución Industrial, que provocó el surgimiento del proletariado en las grandes ciudades, y de la Revolución Francesa, que, con su ideal de Libertad, Igualdad y Fraternidad, alteró las relaciones sociales. El absolutismo dio paso al liberalismo. En consecuencia, en el ámbito económico se instauró la libre competencia y en lo político se defendió la libertad individual. Capitalista y liberal, la burguesía construyó una civilización materialista, desarrolló el capitalismo y controló la política. En este contexto histórico-social, la novela se afirma como el género hegemónico para representar los valores burgueses y la literatura se democratiza. El objetivo de esta tesis es analizar, en perspectiva comparada, las novelas históricas de Camilo Castelo Branco (1825-1890), en diálogo con la llamada novela contemporánea. Nuestro enfoque es en lá novela histórica: Luta de Gigantes (1865), O Olho de Vidro (1866) y O Senhor do Paço de Ninães (1867). Aquí Camilo repasa los tres últimos siglos de la historia portuguesa: la desaparición del rey D. Sebastião (1554-1578) en Alcácer-Quibir, la pérdida de la independencia en 1580, la Revolución de 1640, la guerra de restauración (1640-1668) y la Inquisición (1536-1821), los analiza críticamente, señala el entrelazamiento de lo individual con lo colectivo y trae al centro de lo narrado la concepción de la historia como relato trágico. Para Camilo, la repetición y lo desconocido nunca dejan de acechar al hombre.

Título: Da vítima ao monstro: personagens femininas em Mulheres Empilhadas, de Patrícia Melo e O Poder, de Naomi Alderman
Autor: Mathias, Caroline Façanha dos Santos
Primeiro orientador: Monteiro, Maria Conceição
Abstract: This thesis aims to analyze female characters of two novels that explore the theme of women and violence: O Poder by Naomi Alderman and Mulheres Empilhadas by Patricia Melo. The research seeks to understand the transformation of these characters from victims to monstrous entities, exploring the nature of female monstrosity and creating a narrative structure capable of encompassing the peculiar trajectory observed. The study also aims to contextualize fear in stories written by women and examine the dual nature of transgression, analyzing female characters who defend themselves or initiate violence. The research is based on Gothic theorists such as Fred Botting, David Punter, Maria Conceição Monteiro, and Júlio França, as well as scholars in the field of teratology such as Jerome Cohen, David Gilmore, Julia Kristeva, Rosi Braidotti, and Gregory Claeys
