        Teatro de invasão do espaço urbano: A cidade como dramaturgia

        by Carreira, André

        Este livro reflete sobre as relações entre as linguagens da cena da rua e a cidade como ambiente, discutindo os elementos temáticos, os procedimentos estéticos e seus atritos com as normas que regulam os fluxos urbanos. O foco são os procedimentos que invadem o espaço da cidade modificando momentaneamente seus usos e normas. O autor aborda como o político e o estético se combinam nas experiências nas ruas, considerando que o teatro na cidade é uma linguagem particular que se propõe experimentar o espaço inóspito. O livro se refere a uma grande variedade de formatos e experiências cênicas que rompem com as fronteiras dos espaços convencionais. O estudo analisa dinâmicas das formas teatrais que se fazem no espaço aberto das ruas e praças, ou nos túneis dos metrôs, nas fachadas de edifícios, e até em espaços fechados que estão penetrados pelos acontecimentos que provêm da rua.

        Teatro e universidade

        by Gonçalves, Jean Carlos

        Mikhail Bakhtin, filósofo literário, cujos estudos são geralmente associados ao Carnaval e ao Diálogo, foi uma figura solitária que trabalhou, sobretudo em seu ateliê. Jean Carlos Gonçalves nos apresenta um livro em que as ideias de Bakhtin sobre o Diálogo e a Educação são retiradas de um estúdio sombrio para um estúdio bem iluminado, e ali, são convidadas ao jogo. Bakhtin escreveu sobre ideias em interlocução na ágora (o fórum público), mas nesta obra vemos Jean Gonçalves propondo um espaço real, mais do que apenas teórico, onde ensino e aprendizagem se constituem enquanto acontecimento. De certo modo, o ateliê de Gonçalves nos leva de volta às raízes do ver e do pensar, do teatro e da teoria: no grego antigo, ??????? (theasthai) [olhar ou contemplar]. Aqui, nesse estúdio iluminado por vozes da cena e da pedagogia, nos é ofertada uma nova forma de olhar/contemplar o ensino e a aprendizagem no contexto de formação superior em Teatro. — DICK MCCAW, Professor do Departamento de Drama e Teatro da Royal Holloway, University of London

        Society and culture in Dalcidio Jurandir

        by Willi Bolle

        This book presents an overview of Amazonian history and analyzes the novel Cycle of the Far North, by Dalcidio Jurandir, a work that represents the social inequality and exclusion inherent to Amazonian society. Willi Bolle rescues the work of this important, albeit unknown, author, emphasizing Dalcidio Jurandir’s contribution to our understanding of Amazonian culture. In his work, Jurandir describes the quotidian of those living in the periphery of society, and advocates, quite emphatically, quality education for the poor. He also registers the social dialect of the inhabitants of the Amazon, in a document of the cultural memory of the region.

        SOUTH AMERICAN CITIES AS CULTURAL ARENAS

        by Fernanda Arêas Peixoto and Adrián Gorelik (editors)

        Organized by Fernanda Arêas Peixoto, professor at the Department of Anthropology of the University of São Paulo, and Adrián Gorelik, professor at the University of Quilmes, this book is the result of a collective research project about the cultural urban history in South America, which was developed by a group of South American researchers. Using as a compass the notion of “cultural arena”, this work performs a reflection on the city as a place of cultural germination, experimentation and resistance. Some cities – Buenos Aires, Santiago, Lima, Recife, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Salvador, Montevideo, among others – are studied in order to capture the intimate and inextricable relations between city and culture.

        Iniciação à direção teatral

        by Machado Santos, Gláucio

        "A historiografia sobre as artes cênicas no ocidente, em linhas gerais, concorda que a moderna encenação teatral possui sua certidão de batismo em dois textos fundadores: 1884, A arte da encenação: ensaio de estética teatral de Louis Bec de Fouquières, e 1903, Conversas sobre a encenação de André Antoine. Assim, em termos de cultura teatral ocidental, pode-se considerar que o conceito de moderna direção teatral e consequentemente o perfil do diretor possuiriam pouco mais de cem anos de idade. O que dizer então do processo de transmissão deste jovem ofício às novas gerações? Ensaiar, dirigir, encenar, performar. Esses são verbos que, na língua portuguesa, sinalizam atitudes criativas distintas em relação ao palco. O comportamento criativo do coordenador da cena teatral reflete a mentalidade de sua época. Assim, o ensaiador luso-brasileiro esteve condicionado pela técnica teatral associada aos gêneros dramáticos; o moderno diretor passou a ser o porta-voz, o mediador poético das palavras do autor da peça; enquanto que o encenador procurou expressar, por meio de uma escrita cênica arrojada, mais sobre si próprio e suas inquietações sobre o mundo do que sobre o resíduo escrito por outrem; e o performador vem performando na contemporaneidade, atritando mais do que nunca o real e o ficcional, o autobiográfico e o discurso sobre as minorias e temas atinentes à pós-modernidade, reciclando formas e gêneros. Como estabelecer então os fundamentos desta formação técnica e desta arte centenária? Simples. Leia este livro que você tem em mãos e aventure-se. Descubra o diretor teatral que existe em você. Conciliando fundamentos do ensino dispensado nos Conservatórios europeus com a teoria e prática do teatro advindas do ensino universitário, Gláucio Machado nos oferece caminhos seguros os quais associam esforço criativo e trabalho intelectual para oferecer uma sólida iniciação à formação do diretor teatral. — WALTER LIMA TORRES NETO (Professor titular de Estudos Teatrais na UFPR em Curitiba)."

        Dissident identity

        themes for a new Brazilian history

        by Edgard Leite

        In ‘Dissident identity: themes for a new Brazilian History’, Edgard Leite continues the work done in 'Predators', which addresses the Brazilian history from the other side, rescuing facts, contradictions and ideas that, over the years and because of a historiography often biased, remained forgotten. A thorough job and an arduous task which the author is not exempt, but faces; as well as facing certain tradition in historical studies. With a concise writing, the author develops his argument from the idea that, since the Copernican revolution, mankind turned to quantity over quality. It is precisely this world that will emerge from Brazil, since the arrival of Europeans will just at a time when the effects of the Copernican turning shall introduce into Europe. Another important point for understanding the history of Brazil will be the secularization of the state, which is strengthened by the Enlightenment and the French Revolution is, above all, its most acute event. Understanding the relationship between state and religion and, especially, the understanding of the concept of mind, will be central to a discussion of the values that shape - or fail to shape - a society. The book ends with the 1964 event, and the reader will wait that the author addresses in forthcoming books, the continuation of Brazilian history. Always with his provocative and powerful bias.

        by Nikelen Witter

        This is the story of advancing deserts that covered cities. The story of a world on the verge of destruction. It is about the people who inhabited that world, their alienation and the violent war in which they lost themselves. This is the story of a young woman, who healed wounds, and her best friend, who ran a brothel, and how they faced all that was thrown at them. It is also the story of a tiger and a little girl. But, when you get to know all of them, you will have to answer the call to look into the future and plunge into the abyss.

        MUTATIONS: DISSONANCES OF PROGRESS

        by Adauto Novates (editor)

        The eleventh book in the series Mutations, Dissonances of progress discusses how the progress of technology brought undeniable benefits to humanity – such as advances in medicine and communication –, improving our daily life. On the other hand, it brought speed and superficiality to the relations of the human being with its surroundings, and degraded several aspects of current life with the exacerbation of individualism, the substitution of moral values, the overestimation of religious beliefs, the economy as the utmost referential of life in common, the knowledge of specialists to the detriment of thinkers. The essays in this volume analyze this situation and indicate paths for reflection.
