O mel que outros faveiam: Guimarães Rosa e Antropologia

Abstract

This dissertation is about the Guimarães Rosa’s literary production, especially “Grande Sertão: Veredas”, “Meu Tio o Iauaretê” and “Bicho Mau”. The aim is to explore the poetics and the concepts of Rosa’s work with the anthropological horizons. Taking these three literary productions, there is a reflection on Rosa’s works in its possible relationship with anthropology through the study of myths, paradoxes, rituals, symbolism, translation and language. This dissertation will examine the possibilities of approaching between the anthropological and literary horizons.
