Abstract

SILVA, Neisi Maria da Guia. The experience of childhood in “Abril Despedaçado”.152 f. Thesis (Post-Graduate Program in Education) - Pontifical Catholic University of Goiás, 2018. Thesis linked to the Education, Society and Culture Research Line of the Postgraduate Program in Education of the Pontifical Catholic University of Goiás (PUC-GO), in the field of studies between Childhood, Literature and Cinema, investigating, in bibliographical character, the childhood. For the study in question, we bring the work Abril Despedaçado, checking the transit between literature and cinema of Ismail Kadaré's work (2007) and in the homonymous work of Walter Salles (2001), emphasizing the childhood represented in the film work. Childhood here is established as inherent in all human beings and is established in/by the language. For this analysis we bring the child, the subject who sees himself capable of saying the unspeakable, which is precisely what language must presuppose in order to be meant. The concept of childhood is accessible only to a thought that has effected that "pure elimination of the unspeakable in language" according to Agamben (2005). Thus, we seek in the Pacu Character words that flee from the world of those who no longer allow themselves to say what goes on in the life of a family marked by death from the ancestral struggle between families by land ownership.
