A hora e a vez de Minas : o Suplemento Literário como um dispositivo de cultura (1966- 1975)

Abstract

This doctoral dissertation proposes to analyze the dynamics of cultural production made by a part of the intellectuals from the state of Minas Gerais, between the 1960s and 1970s, especially in the city of Belo Horizonte. It is important to emphasize that the work and the involvement of this intellectuality established a cultural supplement, the Suplemento Literário of Minas Gerais newspaper, a publication of quite expressive work. In this sense, the purpose of this doctoral dissertation is to investigate the work of creation, organization and maintenance of this supplement as a vehicle for the production and dissemination of cultural memory, especially concerned with situating Minas Gerais State as part of a national and world intellectual culture. By identifying these characteristics in their creation, assembly and maintenance, the investigation of this doctoral dissertation was based on the concept of dispositive as the main theoretical reference for the reading and interpretation of the Suplemento Literário as the object and source of research. In this sense, we were interested in investigating the supplement as a cultural dispositive, capable of articulating heterogeneous elements inside a complex network of knowledge, which gave it legitimacy as a project and an object of cultural circulation and communication.
