Abstract

This article takes as its starting point a discussion of the essay A participacao engajada no calor dos anos 60 by Heloisa Buarque de Hollanda. We emphasize the separation that the writer proposes between the discourses of different ideological groups in effervescent social, political and cultural life of the 1960s in Brazil. The groups discussed within the intersection of Hollanda’s text and our thematic focus are two: the one covered by the populist perspective of Centro Popular de Cultura (CPC) and the artistic groups of Brazilian vanguard, represented by concrete movement and developers and practitioners of poema-processo and poema-praxis . We address the ideological aspects embedded in the revolutionary speeches of these groups, both in terms of oppositions that these discourses bring up as against the common ground on which both build the foundations of their political engagement. Then we deal with as the poet Ferreira Gullar positioned himself in this ideological debate to, then, take the stance that he thought ideal for the defense of artistic engagement. Therefore, we propose a reading of the narrative poem Joao Boa-Morte, cabra marcado para morrer published in 1962 in the context of so-called literatura de cordel . The poem, we think, can be pointed out as an example of how modernist art, despite the strangeness that it can impose to the people , it is not excluded from political debate wrought by ideological groups of popular orientation, not being poetry in opposite to other forms of artistic expression supposedly better suitable to engagement, as argued Jean-Paul Sartre.
