A poética da Amazônia trágica em Choves nos Campos de Cachoeira de Dalcídio Jurandir

Abstract

the main objective of this work was to outline a poetics of the tragic Amazon in the work “Chovenos Campos de Cachoeira” by DalcídioJurandir. The research proposal was to delve intensely into this novel to carry out a reading that could take into account the cultural aspects, since all literature from the Amazon is telluric and this will reflect its environment. It is important to emphasize that all this literature is oral. Orality deeply marks the work “Chovenos Campos da Cachoeira. Furthermore, we have the issue of the strong psychological charge in the novel, which is responsible for merging the characters' innermost lives with their external reality, with the cultural environment in which they lived. There are moments when thought translates into reality. It seems that thought is the Amazonian setting that every character embodies. This research was theoretically supported by Paes Loureiro, José Freire and DalcídioJurandir. What can be concluded is that “Chovenos Campos de Cachoeira” is a modernist novel that breaks with the hero structure. There are protagonists who are also antagonists in various circumstances. All fights are inglorious. The great victory is of tragic poetics. The Amazon is tragic and its characters are capable of experiencing this tragicity. Everything in the work is very complex. The plot is very well woven. It's as if each character passes the thread of misfortune to each one and those who receive it say: a waterfall of sadness is raining in our lives. Everything is sorrow! Everything is water that spills melancholy.
