Caminhos da memória nas poéticas de Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen e Maria da Conceição Paranhos

Abstract

This research proposes a comparative study on the constitution of memories in the poetry by Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen and Maria da Conceição Paranhos. The route starts with the analysis of the writer‘s metapoetry, problematizing the relationship between rime and remember, when discussing the poem as abode of being. This language housing, which is the poetic text, is presented as a human construction inhabited by poetry. To demonstrate the awareness of being a construct – although permeated by traces of memories – the poetic memory is being worked in a dynamic of decentralization, analyzed in the second chapter. In order to observe the specific way each artist reconstructs, poetically, the memory of his time, in the third part, we study compositions that amalgamate the images of the city and the historical period in which that lived the poets, showing the removal of an idea of substantial memory by the writers.
