From Literature to Brazilian Music

the melopoetic dialogue of Alice Ruiz and Alzira E

Abstract

Interart relations have been the subject of knowledge in the field of Brazilian culture in recent years. The connection between Literature and Music has emerged since the 1980s in European countries such as Spain and France, gaining expression in Brazil from the works of Solange Oliveira. The purpose of this article is to present the melopoetic dialogue relationships between Alice Ruiz and Alzira E. As a methodology, we used a song from the CD Paralelas, authored by the aforementioned artists, to present the discursive and melopoetic relationships present in the artistic text. In order for our intention to reach the expected results, it was necessary to delimit some theoretical questions about Literature and Music and also about the artistic production of the authors of the listed song so that we can place the context of analysis. For the basis of our study, we sought theoretical support in works by authors such as Bakhtin (2011; 2018; 2021), Brait (2020), Goldstein (2006), Lotman (2010), Menegazzo (1991), Murgel (2005; 2010) , Oliveira (2002; 2003), Rosa (2009), Stegagno-Picchio (2004), Voloshinov (2019), among others. Our discussions and results show that the relationships of the melopoetic dialogue present in the analyzed text allow a range of constructions of meaning effects in relation to the social imaginaries undertaken to the female figure. We also consider that in Paralelas, both the formal content of the CD and the analyzed song demonstrate the emancipatory process of Brazilian women, whose empowerment relationships are evidenced from the 2000s.
