Do jardim inverso ao plantio da terra: a poética crítica de Ferreira Gullar

Abstract

This essay explores Ferreira Gullar's trajectory from the publication of "A Luta Corporal" to "Dentro da noite veloz," aiming to make visible the author's critical movement concerning his poetic work, literature and poetry itself). This is done by considering the presence and modes of his political and historical consciousness in his literary configurations, as well as the author's reflections on the place of engagement. It seems that through questioning and reworking, stemming from self-criticism, we observe the thread with which he weaves his path. To achieve this goal, we will analyze works such as "Roçzeiral," "Peleja de Zé Molesta com Tio Sam," and "Meu povo, meu poema," and refer to secondary texts like the "Manifesto Neoconcreto."
