Imaginari: the absent present in the Baroque

Waldir BARRETO; Thais CAREZZATO

Original title: Imaginari: a presença ausente no Barroco

Published in Games from Antiquity to Baroque

Keywords: Absence, Baroque, Imagination, Presence.

This essay presents an introductory and speculative approach to the paradigmatic change that occurred between the 16th and 17th centuries in the artistic treatment of the idea of “presence in absence”. Based on some comparative categories by Heinrich Wölfflin and semiotics by Charles Peirce, taken as merely functional tools and not directive concepts, it proposes the Baroque as the starting point of a historical process of relativization, opening and expansion of the space constituting a work of art.

The face as the place of the subject that existed: artistic figurations from Antiquity to Baroque

Alexandre Emerick NEVES

Original title: O rosto como lugar do sujeito que houve: figurações artísticas da Antiguidade ao Barroco

Published in Rhythms, expressions and representations of the body

Keywords: Antiquity, Baroque, Face, Presence and Absence.

Generally, when we refer to human representation, we immediately remember the human body, the human figure, and when we deal with the subject, the first reference is his face or, more specifically, his portrait. It is interesting to remember, in this regard, that the face itself can be fragmented, divided into significant, if not autonomous, parts. Without intending to go through an exhaustive and linear history of the face, consenting to jumps and returns between Antiquity and the Baroque with some providential escapes, I turn to Giorgio Agamben regarding the asymmetrical relationship between the head and the body, while Georges Didi-Huberman and Jacques Rancière help us on the affinity of the images of figured bodies with the presence or absence of the subject, especially in the face.

Two poetic loose sheets of War of the Reapers (1640-1652/59)

Àngels SENDRA MORANT

Original title: Dos plecs solts poètics de la Guerra dels Segadors (1640-1652/59)

Published in

Keywords: Baroque, Catalan Literature, Critical edition, Modern Age, Political literature.

This project has as an objective the critical editing of two letters written anonymously in thematically related heptasyllabic verses, with little time difference. These two letters, Carta que ha enviada la vila de Perpinyà a Cathalunya, ahont va contant totas sas desdichas and Resposta que fa Cataluña a una carta que li ha enviada la vila de Perpiñà, ab la qual plora las desdichas pateix en recompensa de innumerables servicis, which are propagandistic poetic broadsheets dated 1641, were intended to transmit political ideas related to the Catalan Revolt (1640-1652/59). In this regard, the project attempts to contribute to the recovery of political literature from this period by editing texts that until now could only be found in two documents from the XVII century, contextualizing them in this warlike incident.
