(The Longest Memory, Fred D’Aguiar) RESUMO Analisam-se os romances The Longest Memory (1994) e Feeding the Ghosts (1997), do anglo-guianense Fred D’Aguiar, sob a perspectiva da memória da escravidão. Os dois romances tematizam a memória da escravidão em momentos distintos, construindo uma espécie de panorama da escravidão negra transatlântica, desde a captura de escravos em África e a passagem intermédia, até a escravidão nas plantations norte-americanas nos séculos XVIII e XIX. A história da escravidão negra evidencia o peso da escravidão para a economia política da Europa e do Novo Mundo. Mas, sua memória tem sido relatada com base na visão do senhor de escravos, e não do escravo. Quando ficcionalizada, a memória da escravidão parece querer revisitar os legados deixados por esta barbárie. Diversos são os tipos de memórias que relembram, discutem, denunciam a escravidão e, neste sentido, este trabalho analisou, com base, principalmente, no conceito de memória coletiva de Halbwachs (2006), as memórias coletivas da escravidão, além de verificar como a memória histórica da escravidão é construída e quais memórias são descartadas para a composição desta memória histórica, que se torna oficializada. Evidenciou-se como o mesmo fato poder ser rememorado de formas diferentes, de acordo com as ideologias de quem as lembra, de modo a deixar claro como a História da escravidão é contada de forma enviesada, unilateral, pois que considera as memórias da elite detentora do poder e não dos sujeitos escravos. As memórias coletivas dos sujeitos escravos não são levadas em consideração ao se oficializar a história e, assim, a memória da escravidão parece estar sendo minimizada pela história e é a ficção quem parece não querer deixar-nos esquecer de seu legado, o que se evidencia nos dois romances analisados que buscam dar voz ao escravo, mesmo que essa voz acabe se perdendo na confecção da memória histórica dos eventos relativos à sua escravização. Palavras-chave: Memória. Escravidão. Fred D’Aguiar. Feeding the Ghosts. The Longest Memory. ABSTRACT The novels The Longest Memory (1994) and Feeding the Ghosts (1997), by the Anglo-Guianian Fred D'Aguiar, are analyzed from the perspective of the memory of slavery. The two novels thematize the memory of slavery at different times, building a kind of panorama of transatlantic black slavery, from the capture of slaves in Africa and the middle passage, to slavery on the American plantations in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The history of black slavery shows the weight of slavery for the political economy of Europe and the New World. But its memory has been told from the point of view of the master of slaves, and not of the slave. When fictionalized, the memory of slavery seems to want to revisit the legacies left by this barbarism. There are several types of memories that recall, discuss, denounce slavery and, in this sense, this work analyzed, mainly, the concept of collective memory of Halbwachs (2006), the collective memories of slavery, as well as to verify how the historical memory of slavery is built and what memories are discarded for the composition of this historical memory, which ones become official. It has been shown how the same fact can be recalled in different ways, according to the ideologies of the one who remembers them, so as to make it clear how the History of slavery is counted in a biased, unilateral way, since it considers the memories of the holding elite of power and not of the slave subjects. The collective memories of the slave subjects are not taken into account when the history is made official, and thus the memory of slavery seems to be being minimized by history, and it is fiction who does not seem to want to let us forget its legacy, which is evidenced in these two analyzed novels that seek to give voice to the slave, even if that voice ends up being lost in the making of the historical memory of the events related to his/her enslavement. Keywords: Memory. Slavery. Fred D’Aguiar. Feeding the Ghosts. The Longest Memory.

This project is the culmination of this class's best pieces. Hours were spent on these creations, these extensions of self, and for you to open this magazine and read this message, means so much to us. So go on, and enjoy! --Dominic Lattanzio, Co-Chief Editor This magazine is the result of long, caffeine-filled nights filled with swimming words and splitting headaches. The pieces it contains are the results of the inner emotions of a classroom of writers. Personally, Lit Mag has been a place of growth, a sanctuary, an outlet from the onslaught of the outside world. Looking back on old pieces of mine not only shows me how immensely my writing has grown; it shows me how I have grown. I want to thank Dr. Murphy and this class for both these areas of growth, for offering the timid fourteen-year-old I once was an outlet. So, reader, as you flip through our magazine, be aware that each piece contains a piece of its author. Read them, listen to them, and you will hear each author’s story.

The French Quarter of New Orleans...not too far away is lit brighter than normal if such a thing is even possible. WE drift through the stifling mist and see... ...muzzle flashes. Sounds of gunfire. Different intensities of both sound and light burst through the black mist at us. EXT. INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX -- NIGHT SUPER: NEW YEAR’S -- JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT We break free of the mist to find a fire as it rages in the background... ...and the remains of a bloody shoot out. A MAN IN A LEATHER COAT AND A DARK GREY, ALMOST BLACK HOODIE JACKET. A POLICE SHIELD HANGS FROM HIS NECK. A WOMAN also dead has FBI stenciled on her WINDBREAKER. Automatic handguns aren’t far from anyone’s reach. Blood pools everywhere. Sharp scrapes are heard on the ground. Someone is still alive. He’s CALE BISHOP, 30, baby faced but with a steely eyed intensity, tries to get on his feet. A GOLD SHIELD sits on his waist. He too wears a DARK HOODIE JACKET and BLACK LEATHER COAT.

  • Identity Performance in British Rock and Indie Music
    Identity Performance in British Rock and Indie Music: Authenticity, Stylization, and Glocalization Christine Schulze Centre for Languages and Literature Master's Thesis, 30 hp (SPVR01) English Language and Linguistics June 2014 Supervision by Dr. Francis M. Hult Abstract This master’s thesis, departing from the work done by Peter Trudgill and Paul Simpson, aims at widening the scope of research on the identity performance of British rock and indie musicians by taking into account the influences and intersections of local and global social contexts. It not only analyzes the musicians’ accents but also focuses on their lyrics, music videos and statements in interviews. The different types of data are analyzed for references of place in relation to theories of discourse, stylization and authenticity. The thesis applies the concept of glocalization, which has been widely used in studies of hip hop music, to the genres rock and indie in order to explain how local and global forces influence discursive identity production, particularly in relation to popular culture. The first phase of the study is a lyrical analysis of five British bands. Based on the results of the first phase, three bands were chosen for in-depth multimodal discourse analysis in a second phase. Results show how the bands' identity performances were changed and (re)shaped over the course of their careers. The study reveals three different profiles of the approach to and the development of identity performance, highlighting the importance of individuality in the face of mass media. In all, with respect to methodology, the study illustrates the benefit of discourse-analytic case study for the investigation of identity performance by musical artists.
