Abstract(s)
We propose to examine the poet Guerra Junqueiro, according to three documentaries or three different cinematic gazes, both in time and perspective: “Guerra Junqueiro”, Leonel Brito (1980); “O Douro nos caminhos da literatura: Guerra Junqueiro”, Mário Augusto (2010); “Nome de Guerra, a Viagem de Junqueiro”, Henrique Pereira (2011). Poets are literary characters, and as such, are constituted by semantic elements and subject to interpretations, according to the different contexts of their reception. Each period “manufactures” its own representation of a poet. Since Guerra Junqueiro is one of the most controversial personalities in the history of Portuguese literature, essentially due to his political and religious positioning – notions like the honesty and untruth propagated by the “composition” of each of the documentaries will be discussed, as well as their impact on the Portuguese social fabric. This presentation will also address the documentary film ability to “represent” reality.
