Resumen

Social constructionists argue that through narrative human beings create the realities that they subsequently inhabit. Since Cuba first gained its independence, the nation has been beset by a series of historiographical battles in which various political actors have vied for hegemony over Cuba’s past. If the conflicts that occurred in the first half of the twentieth century revolved around attempts by disparate competing factions to confer legitimacy on their respective ideological projects by successfully appropriating the figure of José Marti, then the last fifty years have been characterised by struggles between revolutionary hagiographers and anticommunist revisionists over the true natures of the Batista regime, its Castroite replacement, as well as of the figures of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. This dissertation examines Cuba’s post-Batista linguistic conflict with itself through the lens of social psychology as well as by employing the closely related disciplines of social constructionism, narrative therapy, and bibliotherapy in an attempt to understand what effects the various discourses have had on the nation. After initially teasing out the relationship between draconian censorship and the emergence of an aesthetics of misanthropy, I proceed to illustrate how the works of certain Cuban mystery novelists in the 1990s highlight the need for historiographical reconciliation by gesturing towards the plethora of historical ambiguities that problematised national reconciliation. The fourth and fifth chapters investigate how these narratological contestations play out with respect to the figures of Castro and Guevara. I use narrative mediation to illustrate how, in order for internecine divisions to be eradicated, a more objective biographical approach to these individuals – and one which transcends Manicheanism – is required. The concluding chapter focuses on how a redemptive literary aesthetics has been marshalled to lift Cuba out of its ontological abyss.

Resumen

In my dissertation, I study a selection of little known Spanish and Cuban texts published during the Cuban War of Independence at the end of the 19th century. In this project, I provide a transatlantic approach of literary texts in various genres and subgenres, and political messages exchanged between Cuba and Spain, which have been neglected by scholars in the field. By analyzing the emergence of a colonial discourse in the works of novelists, politicians and thinkers who wrote about the Cuban-Spanish confrontation, I establish their ambiguous and frequently contradictory colonial messages. In doing so, this dissertation furthers our understanding of the complexities of the political moment as well as the interest and ideals that ignited the conflict. The study is of great relevance in view of the recent agreements between the United States and Cuba. The relations between the two countries are evolving in a way that was unthinkable at the beginning of the 20th century. Furthermore, secessionist feelings within the Spanish nation are reemerging and similar allegations and demands that brought Cuba to independence are in place. For all these reasons, it is necessary revisiting and comprehending the complex and, frequently contradictory, discourses that emerged in a moment, which was determinant for the development and future political attitudes of the three nations involved.

Resumen

Long overshadowed by the subsequent 1960s ‘Boom’, Cuban novels of the 1950s have been confined to the backwater of literary analysis, often grouped together and dismissed as mere social realism like their Spanish counterparts, or described as inferior. The spatial has been similarly overlooked in literary analysis in favour of a focus on stylistic experimentation, narrative structure, characterisation and the temporal. More recently, however, theorists such as Mitchell (1980) and (1989), and Wegner (2002), have argued that literature has become increasingly spatial, and that a greater focus on spatial analysis is needed. Furthermore, conceptions of space in literature have moved from the static notion of ‘setting’ and identification within a specific location and time, to embrace the function of actual physical spaces, whether exterior or interior, public or private, embedded or liminal, juxtaposed, dynamic, static or fluid. One Cuban novel of the 1950s has already been discussed from a spatial perspective - El acoso (1956) by Alejo Carpentier. Using the two previous studies on spatiality in this novel as a starting point (Stanton [1993] and Vásquez [1996]), this analysis expands on the conclusions made by these studies, stressing the importance of water imagery, and demonstrating that spaces in El acoso are essentially dynamic and female-gendered, arguing that the crisis experienced by the acosado is actually one of masculine identity. Building on the expanded analysis of space in El acoso, three lesser-known Cuban novels of the 1950s are then considered from the perspective of space: Los Valedontes (1953) by Alcides Iznaga, Romelia Vargas (1952) by Surama Ferrer, and La trampa (1956) by Enrique Serpa. The socio-economic, political and cultural backcloth for the novels is set out, before an investigation into theories of space, both literary and non-literary, is conducted. Spaces in Los Valedontes reveal that in the rural domain, sexual identities are stable with conventional masculine hegemony virtually uncontested. Spaces in Romelia Vargas demonstrate that in the urban domain, female sexual identity, albeit historically suppressed, triumphs over the traditionally dominant male norm, whilst a study of spaces in La trampa demonstrates that not only are gangsters, policemen and homosexuals shown to occupy particularly challenged positions, but also that constructions of mainstream Cuban masculinity are under threat. The conclusion compares the function of spaces across all four novels, adding new insights into existing theories of literary space where appropriate. This thesis, therefore, tests the hypothesis that the manipulation of space in these novels constitutes material worthy of study, showing that spaces are dynamic and challenging when female-gendered, and constituting a threat to the hegemony exerted by traditional models of masculinity. Spaces in these novels demonstrate how the early part of the 1950s was a period in which an unpredictable array of contested positions was exposed through cultural, racial, gender and sexual stereotypes, leaving conventional norms of identity open to question.

Resumen

Il est très délicat de parler " d'identité " cubaine sans la problématiser, la nuancer ou la circonstancier. Cuba est pourtant une île fouettée par des courants venus de tous les horizons, un creuset où se sont mêlées les cultures qui semblent définir son caractère propre. Le cas du théâtre est un exemple incontestable. Le théâtre cubain est un art plus ou moins sinistré à l'intérieur même de ses frontières. Mais après la révolution il commence à renaître. Le théâtre cubain a accompagné l'histoire de la révolution cubaine au milieu d'un siècle de grandes guerres et de mouvement de libération nationale. L'éclosion des années 1960 paraît ainsi être l'apogée de l'écriture dramatique cubaine, et la représentation dans le pays, de ce fait, le théâtre cubain rencontre une spécificité propre à l'intérieur et en dehors de l'île. Les dramaturges cubains représentent dans leurs œuvres la thématique cubaine dans et en dehors de l'île, intimement lié à la circonstance politique révolutionnaire et à ses conséquences dans la famille cubaine et l'individu. Tout ceci participe du " cubain ", autant d'exemples qui montrent la difficulté de parler d'un théâtre cubain. Il n'y pas qu'une seule façon de faire du cubain, car chaque auteur, chaque histoire est différente et implique différentes manières de percevoir " la cubania ", que ce soit dans l'aspect comique, tragique, réaliste, " absurdiste " ou politique, la spécificité de l'île est bien là.

Resumen

La presente investigación, inscrita en los objetivos de la Cátedra José Agustín Goytisolo de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona de promover los estudios en torno al poeta catalán y su generación, y del Grupo de Investigación de la Generalitat de Catalunya “Redes transatlánticas: relaciones intelectuales y literarias” (ref. 2014SGR 78-GRE), dialoga con los estudios sobre la explosión de las obras y los autores hispanoamericanos en el sistema literario y editorial español de los sesenta y setenta, que hizo que Barcelona se adjudicara la condición de "la meca de la literatura latinoamericana", de "el epicentro editorial", siendo figuras clave de este fenómeno la ya mítica, agente literaria, Carmen Balcells y especialmente el editor Carlos Barral, considerado unos de los principales artífices del boom latinoamericano. Atendiendo al hecho de que el mercado, la crítica y la propia academia han determinado las formas de circulación de las letras y las formas de recepción de la literatura, Redes transatlánticas: José Agustín Goytisolo y su relación con Cuba y sus letras (1966-1999) surge de la idea de que el mayor de los Goytisolo fue uno de los principales promotores y conocedores en España de la poesía cubana de los primeros años de la Revolución, pero que sus gestiones como promotor literario se han mantenido eclipsadas por otras figuras que han recibido mayor reconocimiento y espacios de visibilización. Además, se suma a esta reflexión el desfavorecido estado al que se ha enfrentado la poesía, siempre relegada a un segundo plano en los estudios literarios sobre esa época, que se han centrado sobre todo en la llegada y recepción de esa "avalancha de novelas" que consolidaron al boom, olvidándose de problematizar también la internacionalización de los poemarios hispanoamericanos que cruzaron el océano. El objetivo de ese estudio es profundizar en la relación literaria, ideológica y afectiva del José Agustín Goytisolo con la Cuba revolucionaria y sus letras, desde su primer contacto con la isla y sus intelectuales del que tenemos registro (en 1966) hasta su muerte (en 1999), y así dar cuenta de cómo Goytisolo, a quien nos aproximamos ya no sólo como poeta sino como editor y crítico, fue en esos años otro de los “puentes” de esa red intelectual, editorial y cultural transatlántica. La aplicación de la idea del "campo cultural" de Bourdieur, así como los paradigmas metodológicos e ideológicos de los estudios transatlánticos (Ortega), resultaron atractivas y adecuadas, ya que ayudan a comprender e interpretar esa época y el entramado de esas redes informales que fueron gestando ese intercambio cultural transatlántico. Es por ello que esta investigación implicó también el desafío de prestar atención no sólo a Goytisolo y a los intelectuales cubanos en cuestión, sino también a elementos sociopolíticos que condicionaron la producción misma de las obras y al aparato institucional que las rodeaba, para así dar cuenta de cómo las gestiones de éstos afectaron, directa o indirectamente, a la producción y recepción de los libros, pero también a sus creadores. De estas formas, enmarcado dentro de los estudios de historiografía literaria entre España y América Latina, y los estudios de la memoria, se da cabida también al entramado crítico español de esos años que, bajo un corte progresista y latinoamericanista, veló por la divulgación y promoción de la literatura y cultura hispanoamericana en la península mediante la publicación de columnas y reseñas de las obras. Al mismo tiempo que atiende a cómo la institucionalizada represión cultural del régimen franquista, de la mano de la censura aplicada por la ley de Fraga, afectó también a la llegada de la literatura de ultramar. This research, is part of the objectives of the "José Agustín Goytisolo Chair" of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona -to promote the studies about the Catalan poet and his generation- while also representing part of the work of the Research Group, "Transatlantic Networks: intellectual and literary relations"(ref. 2014SGR 78-GRE), of the Generalitat de Catalunya. It deals with studies about the explosion of Latin American publications and authors in the Spanish literary and publishing system of the sixties and seventies, that made Barcelona "the mecca of the Latin American literature" and "its editorial epicenter", thanks to the role of Carmen Barcells, the mythical literary agent, and especially of the editor Carlos Barral, considered one of the main architects of the Latin American boom. Considering the fact that the market, critics and the academy have determined the ways of circulation of literature and its reception, Trans-Atlantic networks: José Agustín Goytisolo and its relationship with Cuba and its lyrics (1966-1999) arises from the idea that the oldest of Goytisolo's was one of the main promoters and experts in Spain of Cuban poetry of the early years of the Revolution. But his efforts as a literary promoter have remained overshadowed by other figures who have received greater recognition and visibility. On the other hand, we must consider the disadvantaged state that poetry has faced, relegated to the background in literary studies of that time, which have focused primarily on the arrival and reception of the "flood of novels" that consolidated the boom, but that forgot to problematize the internationalization of the Latin American poetry books that crossed the ocean. The aim-objective of this study is to take a close look at the literary, ideological and emotional relationship of José Agustín Goytisolo with the revolutionary Cuba and its lyrics, starting from his first contact with the island and its intellectuals that we have record of (in 1966), until his death (in 1999) and approaching to the author not only as a poet but also as an editor and literary critic. In this way it is possible to demonstrate that Goytisolo was -during those years- another "transatlantic bridge" in the intellectual, publishing and cultural network. The application of the "cultural field" (Bourdieur) as well as of the methodological and ideological paradigms of the transatlantic studies (Ortega), were attractive and appropriate to this investigation, as it helps to understand and interpret the informal network that was generated in that historic moment and that helped to consolidate that transatlantic cultural exchange. That is why this research involved the challenge to pay attention not only to Goytisolo and Cuban intellectuals, but also to social and political elements that conditioned the production of the works, as well as the institutional apparatus that surrounded them, in order to explain how managing these elements affected, directly or indirectly, the production and reception of the books and their creators. As part of the historiography literary studies between Spain and Latin America, and the memory studies, this work analyzes also the Spanish criticism of those years, with a progressive and Latin Americanist tendency, that ensures for the dissemination and promotion of Latin American literature and culture in Spain, by the publication of columns and reviews. At the same time it attended to the institutionalized cultural repression of Franco's regime, through the application of Fraga censorship law, affected the arrival of overseas literature.

Resumen

The object of this thesis is to reach towards an understanding of Cuban society through a study of its detective fiction and more particularly contemporary Cuban society through the novels of the author and critic, Leonardo Padura Fuentes. The method has been to trace the development of Cuban detective writing and to read Padura Fuentes in the light of the work of twentieth century Western European literary critics and philosophers including Raymond Williams, Antonio Gramsci, Terry Eagleton, Roland Barthes, Jean Paul Sartre, Michel Foucault, Jean François Lyotard and Jean Baudrillard in order to gain a better understanding of the social and historical context from which this genre emerged. By concentrating on the literary texts, I have explored readings which lead out into an analysis of the broader philosophical, political and historical issues raised by the Cuban revolution. Since it deals primarily with modes of deviance and notions of legality and justice within the context of the modern state, detective fiction is particularly well suited to this type of investigation. The intention is to show how this is as valid in the Cuban context as it is in advanced capitalist societies where such research has already been carried out with some success. The thesis comprises an introduction, ten chapters and a conclusion. The chapters are divided into three sections. Chapters 1 to 3 attempt a broad theoretical, historical and socio-political analysis of the cultural reality within which the Cuban revolutionary detective genre emerged. Chapters 4 to 6 analyse the Cuban detective narrative from its inception in the early part of the twentieth century until the emergence of Leonardo Padura Fuentes as the foremost exponent of the genre in Cuba after 1991. Chapters 7- 10 concentrate upon the work of Leonardo Padura Fuentes, offering a reading of his detective tetralogy informed by the preceding discussion. The contribution made by the thesis to knowledge of the subject is to build upon the work of Seymour Menton and Amelia S. Simpson on the development of the Cuban detective novel and to provide analyses of the pre-Revolutionary Cuban detective narrative and the work of Leonardo Padura Fuentes for the first time in the English language. The thesis concludes that the study of this popular genre in Cuba is of crucial importance to the scholar who wishes to reach as full an understanding of the social dynamics within that society as possible. In particular, it proves that Cuban detective fiction provides a useful barometer of social change which records the shifts in the Cuban Zeitgeist that have taken place over the past century.

Resumen

Ever since the triumph of the Revolution in 1959, Cuba has witnessed an unprecedented productive boom in the genres of science fiction and the fantastic. A large number of the literary and cinematic works that have surfaced during the last half-century attempt to replace and ultimately reify motifs and scenarios appropriated from the various science fiction and fantastic narratives in world literature and have generated alternative or imagined settings that challenge extant sociopolitical realities and certainties of the island. My dissertation, “Cuba i+Real: singularidades de lo fantástico y la ciencia ficción en la Cuba contemporánea”, examines these literary texts in a Post-Soviet context, analyzing the ways they reimagine the themes, plot devices, and scenarios traditional to the different genres. My argument is that, in most cases, the narratives are carefully and intentionally transformed, adapting them to the strenuous political and economic circumstances of the island and to the tense social conditions of the post-Soviet era. My thesis both decentralizes and expands contemporary debates about fantastic and science fiction theories by recognizing—and including—Cuban science fiction and fantastic production within broader conversations about the relationship between science fiction, the fantastic, and politics. My dissertation builds and expands upon the contemporary currents in literature, exploring how Cuban science fiction and fantastic texts provide a new, imaginative space and frontier to interrupt and contest the Cuban Revolution's hegemonic and monolithic discursive arcs, while allowing for a unique transnational corpus formation which not only crosses many generic and formal boundaries, but also evades and goes beyond existing theoretical and thematic paradigms.

The theoretical chapters of this paper bring, in the first place, the issue of cinematographic adaptation and its ways of dialoguing with literary pieces. The adopted point of view is based on the bakhtinian idea of dialogism and intends upon remaining distant from the common crictical vein which treats the subject of movie-novel analysis as a matter of fidelity, and which understands adaptation as a kind of translation. The paper brings also a theoretical material related to the discussion of the matter of point of view in fictional narratives. The subject is treated both in relation to theory of literature and the cinematographic studies, showing points of proximity and distance between the languages. The analytic part of this paper concerns the construction of the point of view, at first separately in the novel Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas (Epitaph of a small winner), from Machado de Assis, and in the movie Memórias póstumas (Posthumous memoirs), from the director André Klotzel, followed by a closing ponderation on the ways in which the referred works are related. O presente trabalho trata da relação entre literatura e cinema, discutindo a questão do ponto de vista teórico, além de trazer uma aplicação prática de análise, em que se traça um estudo comparativo entre textos das duas esferas semióticas. Nos capítulos teóricos, discute-se, em primeiro lugar, a questão da adaptação cinematográfica, atentando-se especificamente para as suas relações com a literatura. A visão aqui adotada baseia-se no conceito bakhtiniano do dialogismo e procura afastar-se do veio crítico bastante comum que fundamenta as análises romance-filme na discussão da fidelidade e que compreende adaptação como uma forma de tradução. O trabalho traz ainda material teórico relacionado à focalização nas narrativas ficcionais. Debate-se tal questão no que diz respeito tanto à teoria literária como à linguagem fílmica, apontando para fatores de aproximação bem como afastamento entre as duas. A análise tratará no romance Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas, de Machado de Assis e no filme Memórias póstumas, de André Klotzel, da configuração do foco narrativo em cada uma delas separadamente, complementando-se por um momento de ponderação da relação entre as obras.

Resumen

Orientador: Rubens Pereira dos Santos Banca: Márcio Roberto Pereira Banca: Júlio César Machado de Paula Resumo: Nos últimos anos, o estudo comparativo entre as literaturas em língua portuguesa vem gradualmente conquistando espaço no cenário da crítica literária. Apesar destes avanços, a comparação entre a literatura brasileira e a cabo-verdiana ainda representa uma parcela modesta destes estudos, ademais se restringem, geralmente, à confluência literária entre os autores cabo-verdianos e os escritores brasileiros tidos por regionalistas, ou modernistas, em razão de que estes influenciaram o movimento claridoso de Cabo Verde. Esta dissertação, em contramão a estas tendências, propõe a análise da configuração das personagens principais dos romances Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas (1881), do escritor brasileiro Machado de Assis e O testamento do senhor Napumoceno (1989), título da publicação brasileira, do escritor cabo-verdiano Germano Almeida, destacando a representação da figura do burguês em um contexto em que há o convívio de contradições político-ideológicas no interior das sociedades brasileira e cabo-verdiana, oriundas dos processos de transformações que atravessavam. Para cumprir este desígnio, utiliza-se como aporte teórico-metodológico a fortuna crítica de Machado de Assis e Germano Almeida, bem como algumas das produções literárias de ambos os autores. Além disso, situa-se estes escritores no quadro formativo dos sistemas literários nacionais de seus respectivos países, sublinhando a emergência de um projeto nacional para a consolidação da identidade cultural dos países, avultada no período de produção das obras deste estudo.

Resumen

O presente trabalho visa explorar a forma do romance na periferia do capitalismo no século XX e XXI, tendo como paradigmas dois de seus mais destacados escritores, Alejo Carpentier e Mia Couto. Para tanto, analisa-se aqui as obras Los Pasos Perdidos (Carpentier) e O Outro Pé da Sereia (Couto) à luz da teoria do realismo de György Lukács. O que se deseja demonstrar é: visto que o romance é a epopéia do mundo burguês, autores como Carpentier se valeram do período de desenvolvimentismo industrial no continente latino-americano inserido no crescimento mundial do capitalismo pós-Segunda Guerra (1945-1975) para lançar o conflito entre a afirmação definitiva da modernidade e seu universo pré-moderno: a isto muitos deram o nome de realismo maravilhoso. Por sua vez, em Moçambique, o histórico colonial e a independência tardia na época da crise estrutural do capital (a partir de 1975) determinaram uma frágil afirmação dos padrões sociais burgueses. Tal condição tem conseqüências na produção romanesca de autores como Mia Couto. Entre elas: o maravilhoso aparece como princípio formal, elidindo tensões necessárias ao romance e restringindo assim o alcance de sua ficção. The present work aims to explore the form of the novel in capitalisms periphery in the XX and XXI centuries, using as paradigms two of its most illustrious writers, Alejo Carpentier and Mia Couto. To do so, Los Pasos Perdidos (Carpentier) and O Outro Pé da Sereia (Couto) are studied from the perspective of György Lukácss realism theory. The intent is to demonstrate the following: since the novel is the bourgeois worlds epopee, authors such as Carpentier made use of the industrial development period in Latin America in the context of post-Second World War capitalisms growth in the world (1945-1975) to draw the conflict between modernitys definitive affirmation and its pre-modern universe: which many have named magical realism. In turn, in Mozambique, the colonial past and the late independence by the time of capitalisms structural crisis (starting in 1975) have defined a fragile affirmation of bourgeois social patterns. Such situation has consequences in the novel production of authors such as Mia Couto. Amongst which: the magical element appears as formal principle, suppressing necessary tensions to the novel, thus restricting its fictional reach.

Apesar destes avanços, a comparação entre a literatura brasileira e a cabo-verdiana ainda representa uma parcela modesta destes estudos, ademais se restringem, geralmente, à confluência literária entre os autores cabo-verdianos e os escritores brasileiros tidos por regionalistas, ou modernistas, em razão de que estes influenciaram o movimento claridoso de Cabo Verde. Esta dissertação, em contramão a estas tendências, propõe a análise da configuração das personagens principais dos romances Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas (1881), do escritor brasileiro Machado de Assis e O testamento do senhor Napumoceno (1989), título da publicação brasileira, do escritor cabo-verdiano Germano Almeida, destacando a representação da figura do burguês em um contexto em que há o convívio de contradições político-ideológicas no interior das sociedades brasileira e cabo-verdiana, oriundas dos processos de transformações que atravessavam. Para cumprir este desígnio, utiliza-se como aporte teórico-metodológico a fortuna crítica de Machado de Assis e Germano Almeida, bem como algumas das produções literárias de ambos os autores. Além disso, situa-se estes escritores no quadro formativo dos sistemas literários nacionais de seus respectivos países, sublinhando a emergência de um projeto nacional para a consolidação da identidade cultural dos países, avultada no período de produção das obras deste estudo.

Resumen

Mediante de un acercamiento cronológico, esta disertación analiza la función de la ideología como herramienta poderosa para construir la nación y moldear al futuro ciudadano en la narrativa infantil cubana pre y pos-revolucionaria. Aunque una tradición y un proceso de formación de identidad nacional anteceden la literatura infantil publicada antes del triunfo de la Revolución, en los períodos posteriores existe una estrecha relación entre el contexto social de los textos y su función ideológica. Partiendo de “La Edad de Oro” (1889) de José Martí, este estudio se enfoca en los cambios socio-culturales que influyen en el desarrollo de una narrativa infantil nacional que transita del didacticismo más férreo a una variada exploración temática. Por encontrarse entre la Colonia y la etapa revolucionaria, el período republicano ha recibido poca atención crítica, marginado a veces de la herencia literaria de la nación. Sin embargo, el análisis de varios textos representativos en este período permite apreciar la integración de un pensamiento cubano desde búsquedas y posiciones muy diferentes a las del período siguiente, de 1959 a 1989. A partir de 1990 una diversificación temática fomenta objetivos muy distantes del enunciado didáctico. Este estudio concluye que en contraste con los pertenecientes a generaciones anteriores, en los escritores formados dentro de la Revolución, especialmente a partir de la década del ochenta, existe un interés especial por abordar temáticas inexploradas en la literatura infantil tradicional. El divorcio, la muerte, los conflictos generacionales y las diferencias raciales son sólo algunos de los temas que matizan la narrativa infantil posrevolucionaria, cuyos presupuestos ideo-estéticos, se encuentran intrínsecamente relacionados al contexto sociocultural.

In these novels the author of line naturalist, described from his point of view social problems and moral inequities that affected the bourgeois family, and especially the role of women in that society that was in processing, for trying to consolidate the Cuban Republic. In that period, also the feminist movement Cuban was in accelerated development, taking among others issues such as the law of divorce for the political and social debate.

Resumen

Since the 1940s, many works of Catalan literature have taken place in Cuba. While anthologies mention the genre, there has been as of yet no thorough examination of the importance of this trend. Starting with the long history of the relationship between Catalonia and Cuba, this dissertation employs a transatlantic approach to understanding the significance of the island to Catalan literature and identity. The Catalan protagonists, through their contact with Cuba, undergo change that is accompanied by a redefinition of both personal and national identity. The thesis is structured by various journeys from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean. In Por el cielo y mandamp;aacute;s allandamp;aacute; (2000), Carme Riera tells the story of a voyage which takes place in the late colonial period and in the early days of the Cuban fight for independence. Chapters from Gent del meu exili: inoblidables (1975) by Teresa Pamies and Records vells, histandamp;ograve;ries noves (1941) by Josep Maria Poblet personify the voices of Catalan Republican exile in Cuba. Habanera (1999) by Angeles Dalmau focuses on the overseas experience of a modern-day tourist. The methodology of this dissertation draws on literary geography, the study and interpretation of writers representations of physical space, and focuses particularly on the role that Cuba plays in redefining the protagonists of the works examined. Theories of historical memory and feminism, as well as concepts related to postcolonialism and cultural geography also contribute to the conclusion that the physical and cultural space of Cuba reshapes the identity of the fictional Catalans who encounter it.

Abstract: The object of this study is Cuban writer Reinaldo Arenas' autobiography, entitled Antes que Anoiteça, 1994 (Antes que Anochezca, 2006), and its aim is to analyze how this book represents the sense of imprisonment, experienced by the author because of the sociopolitical context of Fidel Castro's socialist system in Cuba. Such aspect is investigated in the narrative focus of both the book and its film adaptation (Antes do Anoitecer - Before Night Falls, 2000) by American director Julian Schnabel. The twentieth century context, called the "Era of Disaster" by Márcio Seligmann-Silva (2003), due to its having been the scene of wars, revolutions and genocides, suggests the need for a concept of history based on memory and not on official history linear progress. Arenas' autobiographical work, if seen as a testimony of the historical events which took place in Cuba during the regime established after 1959 Revolution, will serve as the basis for a new look at Cuban history, since it may disclose events which were not reported by official history.

Resumen

Orientador: Roxana Guadalupe Herrera Álvarez Banca: Antonio Roberto Esteves Banca: Arnaldo Franco Junior Resumo: O duplo há muito tempo está presente na literatura e passou a ser mais recorrente a partir do século XVIII, no Romantismo. Vários escritores produziram obras que dão destaque ao tema. E, por estar na literatura das mais diversas formas, trazendo os mais diversos significados, o duplo proporcionou e proporciona, consequentemente, diversos estudos. Esta dissertação é resultado de uma pesquisa que teve por objetivo principal a realização da análise interpretativa do duplo, sob perspectiva da literatura fantástica, na obra da escritora contemporânea espanhola Cristina Fernández Cubas (1945-). Para a realização da análise, foi feita a seleção dos seguintes contos: "Lúnula y Violeta" (1980), "En el hemisferio sur" (1983), "Helicón" (1990), "La mujer de verde" (1994), "La fiebre azul" (2006) e "El moscardón" (2006). No desenvolvimento da pesquisa, foi feito o estudo do duplo na literatura, do fantástico e do gênero conto. Tais estudos, serviram de base para a realização das análises interpretativas dos contos. Em relação ao suporte teórico, citamos, em especial: Juan Herrero Cecilia (2000, 2011), Sigmund Freud (1976), Nádia Battella Gotlib (1998), Carl Gustav Jung (1987), Rebeca Martín López (2006), Otto Rank (1939), David Roas (2011), Clément Rosset (2008) e Teresa Martín Taffarel (2001). Das considerações finais do trabalho, destacamos: a constante presença da abordagem do processo criativo do escritor por meio da figura do duplo e, inseridas em meio à narrativa, discussões e reflexões sobre o tema do duplo e o gênero fantástico. Em relação ao duplo, este apresenta-se das mais diversas formas, prevalecendo o duplo subjetivo. Em suma, na maior parte dos contos analisados, o tema está relacionado à questão da identidade e associado ao fantástico Abstract: The double has been long present in literature and it became a recurring theme since the Romantic period in the 18th century. Many writers have highlighted the double in their works. As the double has been represented in a variety of ways and acquired varied meanings, it has been subject of several studies. This thesis results from a research that had as main goal to perform, from the perspective of the fantastic literature, an interpretative analysis of the double in the work of the contemporary Spanish writer Cristina Fernández Cubas (1945 - ). To do such analysis, we have selected the following short stories: "Lúnula y Violeta" (1980), "En el hemisferio sur" (1983), "Helicón" (1990), "La mujer de verde" (1994), "La fiebre azul" (2006) and "El moscardón" (2006). During the research we have studied the double in literature, the fantastic and the short story genre. Such studies constitute the basis for our interpretative analysis of the above short stories. As theoretical framework, we have used the works: Juan Herrero Cecilia (2000, 2011), Sigmund Freud (1976), Nádia Battella Gotlib (1998), Carl Gustav Jung (1987), Rebeca Martín López (2006), Otto Rank (1939), David Roas (2011), Clément Rosset (2008) and Teresa Martín Taffarel (2001). From the final remarks of this study, we draw attention to: the constant approach of the creative process of the writer by means of the double and the discussions, inserted throughout the text, on both the double and the fantastic genre. Relating to the double, it appears in several ways, but the "subjective double" prevails. In most cases, in the analyzed short stories, the double is related to the question of identity and associated with the fantastic Mestre

Resumen

During the period of military government in Argentina, Brazil (1964 –1982) and the present day communist Cuban regime, a machinery of cultural repression was established in these countries, these states had a systematic plan of cultural repression of any kind of opposition, dictatorships had an organized and sophisticated operating control over the press and all publications. The dissident writers examined in this dissertation developed strategies of resistance that depended largely on allegory to carry their messages against their respective oppressive regimes. By means of a detailed rhetorical analysis, our study examines the lookings of allegory and cultural resistance under the constraints of repression. Our corpus includes six novels written by dissident writers during the period studied in this dissertation. The fictional narratives selected in this study are divided into novels from Brazil, Argentina and Cuba. The Brazilian novels: of Jorge Amado Dona Flor e seus dois maridos (1966) and Érico Verissimo, Incidente en Antares (1971); two Argentine novels: Ricardo Piglia’s, Respiración artificial (1980) and Martin Khoan’s, Dos veces junio (2002); and by two Cubans: Jesús Díaz, Las iniciales de la tierra (1987) and Zoé Valdés, La nada cotidiana (1995). This dissertation demostrates that allegory and ghosts, as literary figures, can evolve and assume new functions of resisting oppressive governments through confronting, denouncing, identifying and conjuring national traumas as well as adapting themselves to the different political circumstances in which they are used.

Resumen

This is the collection of a novel, Cuban Jam Sessions in Miniature: A Novel in Tracks, and an embedded short story, "Shred Me Like the Cheese You Use to Make Buñuelos." The novel tells the story of Palomino Mondragón, a Colombian mercenary who has arrived in New York after losing his leg to a mortar in Korea. Reclusive, obsessive and passionate, Palomino has reinvented himself as a mambo musician and has fallen in love with Etiwanda, a dancer at the nightclub in which he plays--but he cannot bring himself to declare his love to her. His life changes when he is deported from the United States at the height of the Cuban Missile crisis without having declared his love. Through the thirty years chronicled in the novel, Palomino does all possible in his quest to return to the United States to find Etiwanda despite the fact that he knows she has grown to be a fantasy, an obsession of his imagination. Palomino’s quest takes him to the United States and back three times, as he becomes more and more desperate, as he becomes involved with drug traffickers and for-hire murderers like Polo Norte, as he loses track of what it means to feel alive. Palomino is trapped in a tug-of-war between his rational desire for a normal existence and his irrational but inescapable longing for Etiwanda. In the end, his desperation to get to Etiwanda brings the underworld of Polo Norte to her doorstep. "Shred Me Like the Cheese You Use to Make Buñuelos" tells the story of Polo Norte, Palomino’s antagonist, on his last day on earth, as he is followed by a writer who has agreed to watch him commit suicide. Together, the stories explore the history and nature of the Colombian Diaspora in the United States, and the violent circumstances surrounding the relationship between both countries and the migrants stuck in the middle of it.

Resumen

This dissertation investigates the narrative practice of Latin American Existentialism. My project tracks the structures, themes, and interpretations of Existentialism across national borders in the belief that a common expression exists which is distinctly Latin American. I begin this philosophical cartography, with four Existential(ist) novels produced in Latin America during the 1930s. Specifically, I will examine the Existentialist quality of Enrique Labrador Ruiz's El laberinto de si mismo (1933), Maria Luisa Bombal's La ultima niebla (1934) and La amortajada (1938), and Graciliano Ramos's Angustia (1936). These narratives are analyzed in relation to the core thematic of Existential philosophy. I read these narratives as Existential(ist) because they are of, relating to and characterized by a philosophy of existence, and because they simultaneously produce an Existential discourse. My study is, at one level, comparative in that I pursue the points of emergence of Existentialism's prominent categories not only across national borders, but also across disciplines. I relate the tradition of Latin American thought in the first half of the 20th century and Existential philosophy from Europe to collectivize the thematic points of contact. These I contrast with our literary production of the 1930s. By emphasizing the particularities and continuations of Latin America's contribution to the Existential canon I, in effect, periodize an era which is foundational in the history of Latin American literature. Furthermore, by acknowledging the literary presence of Latin American Existentialism we can appreciate the explicit narrative interrogation of the Self through aesthetic, ethical, and ontological parameters.

The object of this study is Cuban writer Reinaldo Arenas’ autobiography, entitled Antes que Anoiteça, 1994 (Antes que Anochezca, 2006), and its aim is to analyze how this book represents the sense of imprisonment, experienced by the author because of the sociopolitical context of Fidel Castro’s socialist system in Cuba. Such aspect is investigated in the narrative focus of both the book and its film adaptation (Antes do Anoitecer - Before Night Falls, 2000) by American director Julian Schnabel. The twentieth century context, called the “Era of Disaster” by Márcio Seligmann-Silva (2003), due to its having been the scene of wars, revolutions and genocides, suggests the need for a concept of history based on memory and not on official history linear progress. Arenas’ autobiographical work, if seen as a testimony of the historical events which took place in Cuba during the regime established after 1959 Revolution, will serve as the basis for a new look at Cuban history, since it may disclose events which were not reported by official history.

Resumen

The current study investigated vowel quality in Miami Cuban Spanish, looking specifically at the influence of English on the Spanish vowel system. The vowel production of eleven Miami Cubans from three generations is investigated. Subjects include six males and five females. Three different elicitation instruments were used. The first was a brief sociolinguistic interview, the second was a story that the participants were asked to read aloud. Carrier words were embedded into the story in order to obtain multiple samples of both stressed and unstressed vowels. For the third instrument, subjects were asked to read a list of words with careful attention to their pronunciation. The reading list contained the same words that were embedded in the story of the first task. These three instruments were repeated in both Spanish and in English in order to investigate possible English influence in the Spanish vowel system of these bilinguals.

Le roman cubain, depuis le XIXème siècle, avait été un des supports de la définition de lídentité nationale.

La représentation de la Geste nationale, articulée autour dárchétypes permanents mais évolutifs, leur permit de constituer une imagerie spécifique et fédératrice. Sa fonction première était de concrétiser léxistence du lien social qui s\'était parachevé dans la lutte contre le système colonial esclavagiste espagnol. Lídentité et la Nation s\'étaient forgées dans l\'épreuve de la pratique historique ; l\'écrire c\'était la renforcer encore en des temps de doutes.

Vários escritores produziram obras que dão destaque ao tema. E, por estar na literatura das mais diversas formas, trazendo os mais diversos significados, o duplo proporcionou e proporciona, consequentemente, diversos estudos. Esta dissertação é resultado de uma pesquisa que teve por objetivo principal a realização da análise interpretativa do duplo, sob perspectiva da literatura fantástica, na obra da escritora contemporânea espanhola Cristina Fernández Cubas (1945-). Para a realização da análise, foi feita a seleção dos seguintes contos: Lúnula y Violeta (1980), En el hemisferio sur (1983), Helicón (1990), La mujer de verde (1994), La fiebre azul (2006) e El moscardón (2006). No desenvolvimento da pesquisa, foi feito o estudo do duplo na literatura, do fantástico e do gênero conto. Tais estudos, serviram de base para a realização das análises interpretativas dos contos. Em relação ao suporte teórico, citamos, em especial: Juan Herrero Cecilia (2000, 2011), Sigmund Freud (1976), Nádia Battella Gotlib (1998), Carl Gustav Jung (1987), Rebeca Martín López (2006), Otto Rank (1939), David Roas (2011), Clément Rosset (2008) e Teresa Martín Taffarel (2001). Das considerações finais do trabalho, destacamos: a constante presença da abordagem do processo criativo do escritor por meio da figura do duplo e, inseridas em meio à narrativa, discussões e reflexões sobre o tema do duplo e o gênero fantástico. Em relação ao duplo, este apresenta-se das mais diversas formas, prevalecendo o duplo subjetivo. Em suma, na maior parte dos contos analisados, o tema está relacionado à questão da identidade e associado ao fantástico The double has been long present in literature and it became a recurring theme since the Romantic period in the 18th century. Many writers have highlighted the double in their works. As the double has been represented in a variety of ways and acquired varied meanings, it has been subject of several studies. This thesis results from a research that had as main goal to perform, from the perspective of the fantastic literature, an interpretative analysis of the double in the work of the contemporary Spanish writer Cristina Fernández Cubas (1945 - ). To do such analysis, we have selected the following short stories: Lúnula y Violeta (1980), En el hemisferio sur (1983), Helicón (1990), La mujer de verde (1994), La fiebre azul (2006) and El moscardón (2006). During the research we have studied the double in literature, the fantastic and the short story genre. Such studies constitute the basis for our interpretative analysis of the above short stories. As theoretical framework, we have used the works: Juan Herrero Cecilia (2000, 2011), Sigmund Freud (1976), Nádia Battella Gotlib (1998), Carl Gustav Jung (1987), Rebeca Martín López (2006), Otto Rank (1939), David Roas (2011), Clément Rosset (2008) and Teresa Martín Taffarel (2001). From the final remarks of this study, we draw attention to: the constant approach of the creative process of the writer by means of the double and the discussions, inserted throughout the text, on both the double and the fantastic genre. Relating to the double, it appears in several ways, but the subjective double prevails. In most cases, in the analyzed short stories, the double is related to the question of identity and associated with the fantastic

Resumen

Emerging organically in the 1960s and soon incorporated into the revolutionary leadership‟s official drive to democratise culture, the Cuban talleres literarios have expanded over the decades into a significant literary movement based on grassroots participation. In 2009, the municipio-based talleres literarios, open to mass participation, engaged over 40,000 talleristas in creating their own literature, with a smaller number involved in more specialised talleres literarios de vanguardia, including the one based within the Centro de Formación Literaria Onelio Jorge Cardoso, a national institution for young writers of narrative fiction. This thesis analyses this unique and under-researched cultural movement by placing it within its historical context and using the notion of Cuban cultural citizenship in order to assess its impact. It contends that the talleres literarios in Cuba, by acting as literary public spheres, have provided a broad range of people with the opportunity to gain and enact cultural citizenship, thus endowing the movement with a political and social significance which has largely been ignored by academic literature. The shared experience of the talleres literarios has formed Cuban cultural citizens who not only are invested in some of the core values of the revolutionary process, but who also have the tools and space with which to participate actively in the construction of meanings. In this way, Cuban cultural citizens formed within the talleres literarios benefit individually through gaining a sense of belonging to, and empowerment in, the literary world, whilst also contributing to the evolution of cubanía revolucionaria and the ongoing negotiation of revolutionary hegemony. The thesis follows the recent work on Cuban culture which rejects the liberal assumptions that the cultural and political spheres should not mix and that civil society and the state are two distinct and oppositional entities. Instead, it uses the conceptual framework of cultural citizenship, which is based on the theoretical premise that culture and politics are inseparable, in order to approach critically the talleres literarios as sites for cultural participation. It offers a detailed history of the movement, from its origins to the present day, as well as an evaluation of the shared experience of talleristas based on the voices of participants from different periods and levels of the movement. By focussing on an outcome of cultural democratisation, the thesis poses a challenge to conventional accounts of revolutionary cultural policy and literature. It argues that cultural policy should be viewed as a productive as well as regulatory force, because the talleres literarios have been instrumental in creating a broad and inclusive literary culture which emphasises dialogic communication and active, public participation. The cultural citizenship attainable in the talleres literarios has provided the initial phase in the literary education of many established writers, fostered personal relationships between them, and facilitated the circulation of diverse ideas. Finally, the notion of cultural citizenship also adds a further dimension to the already broad field of research on participation and political culture. This case study of the talleres literarios follows the approach to participation that views it not in terms of top-down control or achievement of consensus but as a process by which shared meanings are both reinforced and new ones created as society and state interact within institutional frameworks.

Resumen

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior Este trabalho pretende examinar como Machado de Assis conseguiu, através da escrita do romance Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas, problematizar não apenas este gênero literário, como também o discurso autobiográfico e a própria ficção. Nosso objetivo, portanto, foi analisar o livro dentro do livro, aquele escrito por Brás Cubas, e demonstrar que, através da criação desse artifício, o autor trouxe ao leitor uma discussão relevante sem, no entanto, apresentá-la com ares de tese. Em um primeiro momento, estudamos fundamentalmente os conceitos de autobiografia, romance autobiográfico, memórias e ficção, fundamentando-nos principalmente na teorização desenvolvida por Philippe Lejeune. Apresentamos também um breve panorama histórico do assunto, utilizando para isso, essencialmente, um ensaio de Luiz Costa Lima acerca das origens e dos diversos estágios por que passou o gênero autobiográfico. Em seguida, exploramos detalhadamente as noções de retrato e de auto-retrato, tanto na pintura como na literatura, ora por um viés histórico, ora por um viés conceitual, convocando historiadores da arte, filósofos e críticos literários, na tentativa de chegar a uma compreensão multidisciplinar do assunto. Finalmente, dedicamo-nos ao estudo das Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas, retomando os conceitos anteriormente examinados e buscando exemplos no texto que aproximem o livro escrito pelo defunto autor tanto da autobiografia quanto do auto-retrato This work intends to examine how Machado de Assis achieved, through the writing of the novel Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas, the discussion of not only this literary genre, but also the autobiographical discourse and fiction in itself. Therefore, our objective was to analyze the book inside the book, the one written by Brás Cubas, and demonstrate that, through the creation of this artifice, the writer has brought to the reader a relevant discussion without, however, presenting that like a thesis. At first, we study mainly the concepts of autobiography, autobiographical novel, memoirs and fiction, using fundamentally the theories developed by Philippe Lejeune. We also introduce a brief historical panorama of the subject, using for that, essentially, an essay by Luiz Costa Lima concerning the origins and the different stages that the autobiographical genre has passed through. In sequence, we explore in detail the notions of portrait and self-portrait, in painting and in literature, through both a historical and a conceptual angle, gathering art historians, philosophers and literary critics, in the pursue of a multidisciplinary comprehension of the subject. Finally, we dedicate ourselves to the study of Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas, resuming the previously examined concepts, and searching for examples in the text that approximate the book written by the dead author both to the autobiography and to the self-portrait

Resumen

This thesis analyses the manner in which gender and sexuality are explored within the context of Vodou and Santería in a number of Haitian and Cuban novels and plays. Focusing on the body as the nodal point between the physical and spiritual planes, it examines women’s negotiation of religious, social and political life in Haiti and Cuba as participants in these marginalised religious communities. The narratives these works of fiction comprise indicate the complex nature of such experiences and recognise the active participation of women in Caribbean society, challenging the way in which they have often been limited in, or omitted from, official discourse. By drawing on African-derived religious traditions in the Caribbean, these texts are inscribed within a worldview in which the physical and the spiritual, the living and the dead coexist, and one that allows divisions within and between concepts such as gender, sexuality, womanhood, space and nation to be transcended. In so doing, these authors write alternative and arguably more complete accounts of lived experience in Haiti and Cuba that serve as a source of knowledge regarding the complexities of daily life and provide a means through which the voice of the marginalised can be heard.

Resumen

My thesis grows out of a reflection on Cuban literature, race, and national identity within the broader framework of the canon and its marginal literature. It explores the dynamics of the Cuban canon and specific visions of race and nation, and studies one play, two novels, a book of poems and a radio script from four different moments in Cuban history. Fernández Vilarós´s play Los negros catedráticos (1868) sets for the first time the topic of race at the center of the national debate, immediately before the first and longest Cuban independence war. The play contrasts with Cecilia Valdés (1882), arguably the most canonical Cuban novel, with its subversive remake, Sofía (1891) and analyzes how the former seeks to conceal the nation’s racially-mixed character and present the mulata condition as a mere border-line. Sofía, however, erases this line and expands the mulata condition to everyone. Following this reading, it seeks to identify a set of markers that configures a mulato discourse in Regino Boti´s Arabescos mentales (1913). It proposes that the characteristic tendency toward elitism in Latin American Modernismo is actually a racial device to accomplish racial equality. And so language (and poetry) emerges in Boti as the most efficient vehicle to resolve racial deficiency. Finally, the thesis studies the script of the most successful Latino American soap opera ever, El derecho de nacer (1948), by Félix B. Caignet. Here Caignet converges the Villaverde´s idea of race as an objective value with Boti’s White idealization. He also proposes symbolic or cultural whitening as the only vehicle of social improvement. In conclusion, the common denominator of all four works is the representation of mulatez as an absolute and objective fact, as opposed to the marginal Sofía, which presents it as relative and subjective. Therefore, despite the traditional national discourse of Cuba as a racially-mixed country, the canon has banned those works that actually support this postulate.

Questionar nem sempre significa destruir. Mas se a destruição se faz inevitável, há de se repor outros valores. A morte nem sempre se configura como um fim, mas pode claramente representar o inicio de uma nova existência. Neste trabalho, será observada a questão do niilismo em Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas, acionando filósofos como Nietzsche, para pô-los em diálogo com outros escritores, como Dostoiévski, demonstrando que o niilismo não pode ser considerado um fenômeno regional, mas mundial, demonstrando que em Brás Cubas, tal niilismo converge para outros padrões e para uma possibilidade de resistência através do humor, do riso, da alegria. Machado de Assis is, rightly, a great Brazilian writer not only for their creativity and writing, but mostly for his ideas, his attitude toward the values that often are questioned in his works, which could represent a position that far to be just pessimistic, it is geared more to a nihilist pattern of thought and worldview. Question does not always mean destroy. But if the destruction is inevitable if there is to reset other values. Death is not always configured as an end, but can clearly represent the beginning of a new existence. In this work, it will be subject to the issue of nihilism in The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas, triggering philosophers like Nietzsche, to put them in dialogue with other writers like Dostoevsky, demonstrating that nihilism can not be considered a regional phenomenon, but worldwide, demonstrating that in Brás Cubas, such nihilism converges to other standards and the possibility of resistance through humor, laughter, joy.

Resumen

Essa tese ilumina as relações entre tradição, ensaio e história na obra de Alejo Carpentier, entre 1928 e 1980, com o intuito de compreender seu caminho para o antigo. O estudo recoloca a discussão sobre a proposta estética de escritores e movimentos de vanguarda europeus e latino-americanos. Minha principal consideração é de que a visão negativa de Carpentier acerca das vanguardas foi produto de uma estratégia de sagração de seu nome como intelectual e da separação de sua obra dos bens culturais da modernidade, como o rádio. Duas faces de uma mesma moeda colocou no esquecimento uma obra fundamentalmente vinculada à legitimidade moderna, especialmente por uma experiência do tempo vinculada ao presente e a constituição de uma rede intelectual latino-americana da qual Carpentier era partícipe. Por meio da análise de sua obra e do contexto europeu e latino-americano, este estudo realça que o conceito de formação é apropriado pelo autor para valorizar uma trajetória intelectual coesa que rejeitou os padrões de percepção e representação legados pelo surrealismo. Ao mesmo tempo, as múltiplas formas de leitura da tradição clássica inclusive utilizando os mitos de Sísifo e Adão valorizam o lugar autêntico de sua escrita, porém não deixam de ressaltar a presença da artificialidade do surrealismo. The issue of this thesis is the relation amid tradition, political culture and history in the work of Alejo Carpentier (1928-1980) to understand his way to ancient. This proposal reassesses the dialogue between the aesthetic avant-garde European writers and Latin American manifestations. My main assertation is that Carpentiers negative appraisals by the avant-garde were the product of Rite of his name as intellectual and the distance of his work on the belongings of modernity, like a radio. Two faces on the same coin have been left behind a work linked to the modernity mainly connected to the present and the constitution of an intellectual latin-american web. By the annalisys of the work and the European and latin-american context, this work underlines that the concept of formation emphatizes an intellectual path that was opposed to the patterns of perception and representation legacy by the surrealism. Meanwhile, the different forms of lecture of classical tradition with the myths of Sisifo and Adam who praised the authentic writing on its own, although it maintains the artificiality of surrealism.

Considerado pela crítica um dos nomes mais importantes e complexos de nossa literatura, é um ícone para a modernidade de nossas letras. Portanto, discutir a obra desse autor torna-se, em primeiro lugar, um desafio, tomando como ponto de partida, principalmente, a rica fortuna crítica que se debruça sobre seu texto. Para tanto, elegemos o primeiro romance da segunda fase de produção de Machado como o referencial de análise de um dos temas mais instigantes da história da humanidade e um de seus maiores enigmas: a morte. O romance machadiano que, segundo a crítica, inaugura sua segunda fase de produção, Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas, apresenta a morte como um lugar a partir do qual se produz um discurso muito diferente do que fora elaborado por Machado até então. Vale, dessa forma, lançar um olhar a mais nesse componente narrativo não somente nessa obra, mas em cada romance machadiano escrito após 1881. Machado de Assis is definitely one of the most well known Brazilian writers in the Literature scenario. He is considered by the critics one of the most important and complex names in our Literature. Machado is, above all, an icon to the modernity of our Portuguese language. Therefore, to discuss about his masterpiece is surely a big challenge, considering that there is a wealth criticism in which lays his texts. Having this in mind, we selected his first novel from the second productive period as the reference for analyzing one of the most intriguing themes from human kind history and one of the biggest mysterious: the death. The Machado’s novel according to the critics, opens his second production period. Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas shows the death as a place starting since the beginning, to produce a different discourse that had been elaborated by Machado so far. This way, we are able to recognize all the narrative components not only in this work, but also in each novel that Machado has written after 1881.

Nesta dissertação analisou-se essa obra machadiana em seu suporte original com o intuito de perceber com quais temas o texto literário dialogava e quais interpretações ele pode ter suscitado entre seus primeiros leitores. Dessa forma, a imprensa oitocentista brasileira auxiliou a identificar que uma das preocupações de Machado de Assis à época era combater a literatura realista e o discurso cientificista com o qual essa literatura mantinha íntima relação. Para o autor, esses dois âmbitos carregavam as marcas de uma sociedade que privilegiava as aparências à realidade, e com isso perpetuava injustiças. Machado elabora sua crítica estética, que é também uma crítica social, por meio da construção de personagens femininas que explicitam as ficções do mundo em que viviam e mostram alternativas para se escapar às opressões cotidianas Abstract: The novel Memórias póstumas de Brás Cubas was published for the first time in 1880, on the pages of Revista Brazileira. The main goal of this thesis was to analyze this novel written by Machado de Assis in the periodical where it first appeared. The intention was to identify the themes addressed in the literary text and to understand the interpretations that could have been raised among its first readers. Thus, reading the novel in the periodical allows realizing that one of Machado?s main concerns was to fight against realist literature that was based on a scientific approach. According to the author, these two elements represented a society where appearances overcame reality, perpetuating injustices. In Machado?s novel, this esthetic criticism - that assumes also the role of a social criticism - appears through the actions of his female characters, who made evident the fiction of the world where they lived and showed the available alternatives to escape from everyday oppressions Mestrado Historia Social Mestre em História

Firstly, it was used Lukács'studies (2000) to talk about the fact that the novel did not have a formal pre adaptation and because of that permitted, more than in other genres, the transposition from reality to the literary plan. Secondly, Machado de Assis was situated in relation to social and political aspects that surrounded the daily life in the Brazilian empire, and also in relation to literary practice and literary plan. Finally, this paper focused on the analysis of the memorial report by the dead-author Brás Cubas. Using the famous metaphors created by Pierre Lévy (1996) virtualization and "update". it was verified how the update about his life imerse in the memorial universe (virtual) made the dead-author to reveal the social and historical context of the court in the 19th century simultaneously. O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir como no romance Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas de Machado de Assis, a forma literária concorre para a construção do memorial histórico-social da temporalidade em que esta obra foi roduzida. Em um primeiro momento, baseado nos pressupostos de Lukács (2000), discorreu-se sobre o fato de que a não pré-normatização formal no romance permitiu-lhe, mais do que em outros gêneros, a transposição da realidade para o plano literário. Em seguida, situou-se Machado de Assis, tanto em relação às questões políticas e sociais que permeavam o cotidiano do Império brasileiro, quanto frente à pratica literária e à estética realista. Por fim, esta dissertação concentrou-se na análise do relato memorial do defunto autor Brás Cubas. A partir da metáfora da "virtualidade" e da atualização ambos termos conceituados por Pierre Lévy (1996) buscou-se verificar como a atualização que o defunto autor faz de sua trajetória de vida imersa no universo memorial (virtual), revela simultaneamente o contexto histórico-social da corte do século XIX.

It does not necessarily undertake an exhaustive inventory of the biblical quotations in Machado's work, but it does attempt to find a common thread in the narrative, which might explain, for example, the presence of the hippopotamus in Chapter 7 (The Delirium"), and the "ill-humoured pessimism" of the author, by reference to the books of Job and Ecclesiastes Mestrado Teoria e Critica Literaria Mestre em Teoria e História Literária

Resumen

Although many other ethnic and cultural studies have moved beyond essentialist labels and categories, Cuban-American studies persists in categorizing the people belonging to the cultural group in terms of how much time they have spent in Cuba, thus creating a hierarchy of "authentic" Cuban-ness. Isabel Alvarez Borland gives a comprehensive overview of Cuban-American literary categories, and through her description we can see how these categories may lend themselves to stratification. These categories include: the first generation, the second generation, the one-and-a-halfer, and the ethnic writer. To say that one generation of Cuban exiles is more or less authentically Cuban discounts the emotional connection of individuals to a homeland—a homeland that is now different for each generation, and therefore, all Cuban-Americans live with constructed ideas of Cuba that are not necessarily reflective of a "reality" of Cuba. Nevertheless, this does not necessarily mean that any of these individuals are any less Cuban or any less culturally or emotionally impacted by Cuba, as evidenced by someone like Cristina García who delves into Cuban culture in her writing and studying. The Agüero Sisters by Cristina García, can be read as a critique of this cultural categorization through the way in which characters in the novel obsess over taxonomizing animals and even other people. It seems in order for Cuban-American studies to move forward productively, these labels must be revised.
