This article conceives the avant-garde as a form of art that emerges out of the experience with technical progress, city life and new patterns of perception and that succeeded in transforming multiple perspective and simultaneity of urban life into a central principle for their production. Analyzed are the European avant-gardes as well as their influences on Brazilian literature and painting in the 20s. Furthermore we take a look at concrete poetry of the 50's as a literary pendant to architectonic concepts of cities like São Paulo and Brasília.
This article parts from an interdisciplinary point of view. Its main interest lies in the rich and complex interaction between the literary text and the image. These relations are understood as a “reciprocal illumination between the arts”, according to a publication of Oskar Walzel (Berlin, 1917). It will first investigate two historical landmarks in relation to literature and the image: first, the social differentiation around 1800 and its imposition of a purely textual literature and second, the avant-garde with its intense interaction between the various forms of artistic communication. The paper will then approach two contemporary examples of novels which combine visual and textual material.
No artigo em questão, propomos uma análise do romance de estreia de Jan Sprenger, "Kirgistan gibt es nicht" - ainda sem tradução para português -, sob a ótica da necessidade de pertencimento, personificada pelo narrador, vinculada ao conceito de 'Heimat' (DORN & WAGNER, 2012). Partimos das resenhas propostas pela Revista Cultural "Perlentaucher" (2012), por Vladimir Balzer (2012), para a "Deutschlandfunk Kultur" e Friederike Gösweiner (2013), para a "literaturkritik.de". Conjugamos a perspectiva dessas três resenhas para sugerir que a jornada de Jonas não seja entendida nem apenas em relação ao seu não-par romântico, Olga, tampouco apenas como mero cenário para discussão histórica do Quirguistão, mas defendemos o pertencimento como Leitmotiv de "Kirgistan gibt es nicht".
Walter Salles is probably the most widely known Brazilian director and producer. This article offers a portrait of his work over the last two decades as part of the cinematic and cultural changes that took place in Brazil. It starts with a historical overview of Brazilian film history and will then take a closer look at the films directed by Salles and his activities as producer. By looking at the evolution of the Brazilian film industry in the last ten to fifteen years in terms of market structures as well as aesthetic qualities, two major references become apparent: the more (but not only) commercial oriented productions of Globo Filmes, which often meet public taste and rely on a well-proven television language; second, the movies of Walter Salles as well as the films produced by Videofilmes, a company run and founded in 1987 by him and his brother, the documentarist João Moreira Salles. Videofilmes not only fosters many of the somewhat marginal, smaller film projects, but also serves as support for more artistically orientated movies.

This article discusses the influence of electric illumination on theatre and the so called expressionist film. It starts with a short historical overview and will then argue that the only film with a narrative as well as a visual design in expressionist tradition is From Morn to Midnight, based on a play written in 1912 by Georg Kaiser and released in same year (1920) as its legend counterpart The Cabinet of Caligari. But different then Caligari or many other famous German silent movies from the 1920s it is not located in a romantic shadow world, syntactically created by lightning effects, but renounces the dark and spooky irrational in favor of an urban environment in the early twentieth century: a story of money, erotic seduction, escapist fantasies, eccentric bohemian life, crime and rapid alteration of scenes.
This article analyses the influence of Kant on conceptions and definitions of modern literature and art in publications by Lyotard, Kothe, Weber and Luhmann. It is argued that central issues in these publications, such as artistic autonomy, the sublime and the concept of L’art pour l’art, are adopted directly from Kant’s philosophical work and still serve as paradigms in the discussion of origin and status of modern social structure and its art production.
Fifteen years after his death in 1991 one can trace a certain tendency to turn the person and personality of Herbert Caro into a legendary figure where his work as a recognized translator mingles with episodes related to his passion for music as well as his specific kind of humour. It is therefore of no surprise that Caro himself turned into a literary character of the novel As Confissões de Lúcio by Brazilian writer Fernando Monteiro.
O presente artigo objetiva abordar a obra e vida de Karl May, um dos mais bem-sucedidos escritores de língua alemã, sob o aspecto da encenação. Mostra como May mistura lembranças da infância e elementos literários, o desejado e o factual para uma memória encenada, que fornece um sentido mais profundo tanto para sua biografia como para sua obra. Assim, May se recria como homem ideal que consegue em seus romances superar seus problemas com a realidade, um "eu" multifacetado representado por suas diversas personagens literárias e suas aventuras, reclamadas por May como experiências próprias. Se os entrecruzamentos da identidade ficcional e pessoal criados por Karl May marcam a primeira fase de sua produção e se formamem volta do motivo do aprisionamento e da libertação, sua obra tardia se abstém de tais elementos e se dirige a uma reflexão quase filosófica sobre a humanidade e a paz.v
In Hoffmann’s tales, visual references and optical devices play an important role as thematic and structural components. This article will analyze this subject in a historical context where the social differentiation and the optical media result in a questioning of observation and perspective. Hoffmann’s writing may therefore be conceived, at least partially, through his position towards visibility. This paper will first provide a general look at the interrelations between Hoffmann’ s texts and certain painting styles and then take a closer look at “The Sandman” as a keywork for romantic perspectivism.
