Tapa Blanda. Condition: New. Neste livro, publicado a primeira vez em 1955 o autor traça um paralelo entre a literatura e o jornalismo. Porém, enquanto todos tentam encontrar a fronteira entre os dois "ramos", o autor vê a questão de forma diferenciada. Para ele, o jornalismo nada mais é que um tipo de literatura. Ele afirma que a principal semelhança está exatamente na matéria prima: a palavra. A diferença estaria na forma como se usa as palavras. Outra ideia aqui exposta é sobre a fugacidade do jornalismo. Ele acredita que o jornalismo fugaz é o mau-jornalismo, já que o bom jornalismo seria o exatamente o que perdura. Para esta nova edição, ele acrescentou um capítulo inédito, escrito no final de 2008. 92 Páginas. 120 gr. Libro.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Dust jacket condition: Good. First ed. Solid retired library book with usual library markings; else VG. Text free of underlining, writing and highlighting. Overall, a very nice clean copy. 46 p. ; 24 cm. "O Dia da Ira" .? um poema que narra o enterro de um homem chamado Sousa. Dividido em dezoito partes, utiliza uma t?cnica de cinema, como se imagens focalizadas por uma c?mera se transformassem em versos. Tem di?logos tamb?m. ?, assim, o que se poderia chamar de poema cinematogr?fico. N?o d?, contudo, Ant?nio Olin-to, exagerada import?ncia ao recurso de que lan?ou m?o. No caso, a t?cnica procura servir ao poema e nada mais. Desde seu segundo livro de poesia, "Resumo", que Ant?nio Olinto adotou o m?todo do poema grande. "A Flauta de Raquel", s?rie de dez poemas; "Virgiliana", de oito; "Semana Santa", de sete; "Minas Redescoberta", de cinco; todos constitu?ram caminho para o poema c?clico, posterior, "Nagasaki", formado de vinte e quatro composi??es po?ticas. Convencido da import?ncia do "assunto" na poesia de hoje, Ant?nio Olinto resolveu, depois, em "O Homem do Madrigal", contar hist?rias e fech?-las numa cad?ncia em que os temas se repetiam, numa busca de unidade. Ao longo de "O Dia da Ira", existem quatro poemas que n?o fazem propriamente parte da narrativa. S?o os seguintes: "Abertura", esp?cie de invoca??o ? c?mera, "Fala do Sousa", em que a hist?ria sofre uma suspens?o, "Fala do Sonho", que serve de ante-cl?max para a intriga po?tica, e o poema que deu o t?tulo ao livro, "O Dia da Ira", inspirado no "Dies Irae", do ritual cat?lico para a missa dos mortos.

Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condition: Buen estado. Silvio Baldessari (illustrator). Col. Novelistas de Nuestra Epoca. Traducción de Santiago Kovadloff. Cubierta de Silvio Baldessari. 318 pp. Pequeñas roturas en lomo. La Casa del Agua proyecta la ficción brasileña en el África, mostrando a los esclavos que después de la abolición regresaron a su tierra de origen. Obra que transcurre en dos continentes y narra setenta años de la vida de una comunidad (de 1898 a| 1968), su tono épico confiere a la tragedia de la esclavitud una dimensión que recuerda los poemas homéricos, donde el destino rige la vida de hombres y pueblos. Para la crítica de su país, Antonio Olinto ha renovado con esta novela las estructuras del género en lengua portuguesa. La epopeya del negro brasileño que regresa al suelo de sus antepasados logra conformar un modelo sin precedentes no sólo por su tema sino también en cuanto los recursos del oriki -celebración y saludo que el pueblo yoruba emplea en su concepción poética de la vida- son utilizados por vez primera para reconstruir esta singular saga brasileña. De ahora en adelante, Mariana y su gente (casi cien personajes se mueven en esta obra) perdurarán como símbolos de la capacidad de adaptación del ser humano, a través de un relato vasto y punzante que ningún lector inquieto debe dejar de leer. Olinto ha escrito varias obras de poesía: Presença (1949), Resumo (1954), Nagasaki (1956), O Homem do Madrigal (1957), O Dia da Ira (1958), As Teorias (1967), entre otras, y algunos libros de ensayos y de crítica literaria. Esta es su primera incursión en el terreno estrictamente narrativo.
