A cristalização da forma simples na odisseia amazônica de Cobra Norato: resíduos identitários

Abstract

The research has as its corpus the poem Cobra Norato, by Raul Bopp, a work by strong identity appeal in the ritual of devouring traditions, in the junction of the universal with the local, through the resignification of residual legends, myths and folklore, as they become crystallize in the transformation of Simple Forms into Literary Forms. The poet employs experiences lived in his travels through the Amazon to the narratives collected in the mentality of the Amazonian people, among blacks, Indians, caboclos, riverine people, mentality residues, making them symbolic threads to the fabric of the poetic plot. The objectives of the work consist of in investigating the identity residues of the work, understanding the anthropophagic character from the path taken to think about national identity in its complexity (politics, economic, historical, cultural and symbolic), through a new aesthetic conception that values ​​popular sources – radicalizing poetic making through formal experimentation and thematic – as the national and the universal were articulated. The poem “Cobra Norato”, by Raul Bopp, as a follower of the movement, reaffirms the Brazilian identity and opens paths to other expressions, associating residual facts, utopias and myths in this narrative national breeder.
