This article aims to place Clarice Lispector as the inventor of a new type of newspaper chronicle. The style of her 468 chronicles published weekly in Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, and collected in the book A descoberta do mundo (1984), differs from that of her contemporary male chroniclers, such as Rubem Braga, Paulo Mendes Campos, Fernando Sabino, and Otto Lara Resende, or even women chroniclers, such as Rachel de Queiroz and Dinah Silveira de Queiroz. Mingling Sartre’s existentialism and Heidegger’s phenomenology with the Jewish mysticism learned as a child enabled Lispector to write in a style that pioneered modern women’s prose fiction in Brazil after 1970. This article argues that fragmentation and hybridization are the marks of her “discovery” of a new world as a woman writer, making her crônicas predecessors of today’s women’s blogs.
这篇文章的目的是把克拉丽斯·利斯佩克特作为一种新型报纸编年史的发明者。从1967年到1973年,她的468篇编年史每周发表在《巴西杂志》上,并收录在《世界的生活》(1984年)一书中。这些编年史的风格不同于同时代的男性编年史作者,如Rubem Braga、Paulo Mendes Campos、Fernando Sabino和Otto Lara Resende,甚至不同于女性编年史作者,如Rachel de Queiroz和Dinah Silveira de Queiroz。将萨特的存在主义和海德格尔的现象学与小时候学到的犹太神秘主义相结合,使利斯佩克特的写作风格成为1970年后巴西现代女性散文小说的先驱。本文认为,碎片化和杂化是她作为女作家“发现”新世界的标志,使她的crônicas成为当今女性博客的先驱。

The untimely death of Fernando Arenas on October 30, 2019 has left his partner, mother and brothers, who were by his side at the time, with much pain and an indescribable sense of loss. For his colleagues, his death is a major loss in Lusophone Studies, the field that he helped to forge with unrelenting conviction, generosity and kindness. As I share the outline of a memory that others will want to fill-in, I mourn a close friend and colleague of more than two decades without whom life in Minnesota will never be the same.

In the interviews published by the weekly magazines Manchete and Fatos e Fotos in the mid-1960s, Clarice Lispector had the opportunity to converse with numerous people from the spheres of culture, entertainment and sports. This opportunity allowed her to produce a mapping of celebrities during that period. Lispector’s conversations with famous writers, longtime friends, politicians or persons of high society enable her to develop a poetics of the interview and to express her own concept of literature, artistic creation, and reception.
在20世纪60年代中期《Manchete》和《Fatos e Fotos》周刊发表的采访中,克拉丽斯·利斯佩克特有机会与来自文化、娱乐和体育领域的许多人交谈。这个机会使她能够制作一幅那个时期名人的地图。利斯佩克托与著名作家、老朋友、政治家或上流社会人士的对话,使她形成了一种采访的诗学,表达了她自己对文学、艺术创作和接受的看法。

In her public life, Clarice Lispector fought to be recognized as a native Brazilian; however, in her private life, she tended to associate with people with origins like hers. Many of her interviews are with artists who were either children of immigrants or emigrants from Eastern Europe. Scholars have probed Clarice’s fiction and the interviews she gave for a view of her approach to Jewish identity, but the interviews she conducted have not yet been examined. This article discusses Clarice’s dalliance with identity politics when interviewing notable members of the cultural Brazilian Jewish community, analyzes the questions she asked, and examines how she guided the conversation.

Ao mesmo tempo que defende a importância dos seus romances para a história literária, António Lobo Antunes desvaloriza as suas crónicas, alegando que a sua utilidade se reduz ao facto de poderem ajudar-nos a ler melhor os romances. Este ensaio procura traçar uma linha divisória alternativa entre os dois modos discursivos de Lobo Antunes, argumentando que a forma da crónica se mostra mais apta do que o romance para desenvolvermos um “pensamento ecológico” (Morton). Concluirei sugerindo que essa dimensão será responsável por converter o universo das crónicas no legado decisivo do autor.

This article approaches the territory of madness and unreason in Lispector’s fiction, an aspect of her work that is present in her press contributions “Das docuras de Deus” (16 Dec. 1967), “Sem nosso sentido humano” (28 Jun. 1969), “Loucura diferente” (8 Dec. 1970), and “Lucidez perigosa” (2 May 1972). None of these texts became an autonomous short story or novel, as happened with many others originally published in Jornal do Brasil between 1967 and 1973. This study examines these four texts with a view to grasping a Claricean poetics, as it is represented through extreme perceptions of madness and unreason. I consider these texts as pre-figurations or instances of contact with motives such as freedom, adaptation, fear and habit. The texts examined here are shown to defy hegemonic rationality while pointing to the limits of discursive language.
本文探讨了利斯佩克特小说中疯狂和非理性的领域,这是她作品的一个方面,体现在她的出版作品《Das docuras de Deus》(1967年12月16日)、《Sem nosso sentido humano》(1969年6月28日)、《Loucura disente》(1970年12月8日)和《Lucidez perigosa》(1972年5月2日)中。这些文本都没有成为独立的短篇故事或小说,就像1967年至1973年间最初发表在《巴西杂志》上的许多其他文本一样。本研究考察了这四个文本,以期掌握一种克拉理斯式的诗学,因为它通过对疯狂和非理性的极端感知来表现。我认为这些文本是与自由、适应、恐惧和习惯等动机接触的前兆或实例。这里考察的文本在指出话语语言的局限性的同时,也显示出对霸权理性的反抗。

In this article, I analyze the novel, Eu sou uma lésbica (1980), by Brazilian author Cassandra Rios (1932-2002). I examine how Rios's text discusses the lesbianism and sexuality of Flávia, the protagonist of the novel, as well as the sexual and love relationship that the seven-year-old Flávia has with an adult woman. The work of authors such as Judith Butler, Marilyn R. Farwell, Teresa De Lauretis, Adrianne Rich, Gayle Rubin, and Jeffrey Weeks informs my theoretical framework. I propose that the novel presents Flávia's sexuality as natural and genuine in order to challenge traditional discourses surrounding lesbianism and children’s sexuality. While the representation of lesbian sexuality in children is transgressive and empowering, as it establishes same-sex desire among women as natural and dating back to infancy, I contend however that the novel’s treatment of adult lesbian sexuality perpetuates traditional corporal, racial, and class hierarchies.
在这篇文章中,我分析了巴西作家卡桑德拉·里奥斯(1932-2002)的小说《尤苏乌马·勒斯比卡》(1980)。我研究了里奥斯的文本如何讨论小说主人公弗拉维亚的女同性恋和性取向,以及七岁的弗拉维亚与一名成年女性的性关系和爱情关系。Judith Butler、Marilyn R.Farwell、Teresa De Lauretis、Adrianne Rich、Gayle Rubin和Jeffrey Weeks等作家的作品为我的理论框架提供了信息。我建议小说将Flávia的性取向呈现为自然和真实,以挑战围绕女同性恋和儿童性取向的传统话语。虽然女同性恋性行为在儿童中的表现是越轨和赋权的,因为它将女性的同性欲望确立为自然的,可以追溯到婴儿时期,但我认为,小说对成年女同性恋性行为的处理使传统的体罚、种族和阶级等级制度永久化。
