| Resumo: | This research starts from the presupposition that Cartilha do Silêncio(1997), a novel
by the Brazilian writer Francisco Dantas, has a double articulated shift. One of the
moves is towards the modern experience, with the idea that modernity is filled with
contraries, as remarked by Nietzsche; the other is linked to the livelihoods ashore on
traditional experiences, which encompasses the notion of memory as individual and
collective ownership. The aim here is to analyze such perspective, social and critical
issues within the characters' life stories that regards the calling of past as clear
example that tradition is not gone, though modern life presents its own signs. Such
dynamics gives to the plot a paradoxal feature. This work is mainly grounded on
Marshall Berman' s thoughts in All That Is Solid Melts Into Air: The Experience of
Modernity (1982) as well as on Antoine Compagnon'sFive Paradoxes of Modernity
(1994). Assuming that Francisco Dantas' Novel is set as a split narrative, outcome of
social memory originated on individual experiences aside social process and
patriarchal family, this research brings into play the concept of memory by Jacques
Le Goff in History and Memory (1992) along EcléaBosi's study in Memória e
Sociedade: lembranças de velhos (1979). Keen to check how Cartilha do silêncio
adjoins modern livelihoods with aesthetics order, the method articulates text and
context, literary and social life, according to Antonio Candido'sLiteratura e Sociedade
(1965). Thus, after reading the novel, it is possible to notice how the identity of the
characters are built throughout the plot and it is also kept against settling on its social
context during the transition from patriarchal tradition to modernity, creating a taut
mood between both registries. |
