Abstract
Moved by the Brazilian musician Guinga composition “Meu Pai” (my father), we established a symbiotic relationship between the concepts of life (bi-ography), place (city of Rio de Janeiro) and music. The analysis of “Meu Pai” is a synthesis and a pretext for reflecting on what art does to an artist and those who absorb it. In our theoretical framework, we rely primarily on James Carey (2009) and Gaston Bachelard (1957/1996). As a guide for this journey, we chose Guinga. He leads the journey. His circumstance takes us in an essay that has movement as its axis.
期刊介绍:
A heightened interest in the role of the senses in society has been sweeping the social sciences, supplanting older paradigms and challenging conventional theories of representation. Sensation is fundamental to our experience of the world. Shaped by culture, gender, and class, the senses mediate between mind and the body, idea and object, self and environment. The Senses & Society provides a crucial forum for the exploration of this vital new area of inquiry. Peer-reviewed and international, it brings together groundbreaking work in the humanities and social sciences and incorporates cutting-edge developments in art, design, and architecture. Every volume contains something for and about each of the senses, both singly and in all sorts of novel configurations.
