    Winner of the Modern Language Association's Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for Comparative Literary StudiesWho speaks? The author as producer, the contingency of the text, intertextuality, the "device"—core ideas of modern literary theory—were all pioneered in the shadow of oral literature. Authorless, loosely dated, and variable, oral texts have always posed a challenge to critical interpretation. When it began to be thought that culturally significant texts—starting with Homer and the Bible—had emerged from an oral tradition, assumptions on how to read these texts were greatly perturbed. Through readings that range from ancient Greece, Rome, and China to the Cold War imaginary, The Ethnography of Rhythm situates the study of oral traditions in the contentious space of nineteenth- and twentieth-century thinking about language, mind, and culture. It also demonstrates the role of technologies in framing this category of poetic creation. By making possible a new understanding of Maussian "techniques of the body" as belonging to the domain of Derridean "arche-writing," Haun Saussy shows how oral tradition is a means of inscription in its own right, rather than an antecedent made obsolete by the written word or other media and data-storage devices

    A caracterização da crítica de Antonio Candido e Angel Rama como "sociológica", "culturalista" ou "neoarielista" tem sido usada para defini-los como grandes representantes da tradição crítica latino-americana ou, alternativamente, como precursores da agenda dos Estudos Culturais na região. No entanto, uma análise mais apurada dos fundamentos hermenêuticos de sua produção, por meio da filosofia de Gadamer, revela quadro mais complexo, que não se ajusta a essa imagem simplista. Enquanto a maior parte dos teóricos evita a incômoda distinção entre alta e baixa cultura, ou entre literatura como representação cultural e literatura como forma de arte, Candido e Rama abraçaram a tarefa de tentar encontrar os denominadores comuns que ligam esses elementos. Ao fazerem-no, desenvolveram uma abordagem crítica em que conceitos seminais de Gadamer encontram ressonância. O encontro com a tradição, em especial, de fundamental importância para o filósofo alemão, situa-se no centro da obra crítica dos dois autores. E, no entanto, os principais elementos da tradição literária latino-americana e sua conexão com modelos ocidentais não são evidentes. De forma convergente com Gadamer, os dois críticos acreditavam que a atividade crítica, embora subjetiva e profundamente impregnada de história, poderia levar a conhecimento objetivo, capaz de descortinar as intrincadas conexões entre literatura e sociedade. Partindo do princípio de que o sistema literário é constituído pela tríade "autor-obra- público", o crítico não deveria jamais tentar analisar a obra literária de forma isolada. A consolidação da tradição literária latino-americana deveria ser abordada, assim, por meio de uma atitude crítica informada pela consciência histórica, sensibilidade estética e responsabilidade social do analista. Ainda que traços específicos possam ser encontrados na obra de cada um dos autores, essa abordagem, comum aos dois, torna-se particularmente perceptível na crítica de Ruben Darío e Guimarães Rosa. Esses escritores foram saudados por sua capacidade ...
