Some critics, such as Régis Bonvicino, author of "The Poetry of the Improbable Americas", are considered Ronald one of the best Brazilian poets of later generations.

Poesia Marginal
Poesia marginal () is a manifestation of (mostly) youth poetry produced in the Brazil from around 1970 to 1985. It appeared, principally in Rio de Janeiro, immediately after Tropicália during the early 1970s, in opposition to academic restrictions and against the censorship imposed by the Brazil's military dictatorship from 1964. Anti-normative intellectuals, new academics, and various poets and visual artists throughout the country began to seek alternative means of cultural dissemination in the face of closed cultural opportunities. Poets notably used the mimeograph machine to print texts. This technology led to the nickname "Mimeograph Generation" for the out-of-the-mainstream poets of the time. The "marginal" movement has interested scholars more as a socio-cultural phenomenon than as an aesthetic project per se. The poetry groups had links with the other arts—music, theater, cinema—and extended, through other media, through the 1980s and even 1990s. As a result of being ...

Symbolist
Symbolism was a late 19th-century art movement of French and Belgian origin in poetry and other arts seeking to represent absolute truths symbolically through language and metaphorical images, mainly as a reaction against naturalism and realism. In literature, the style originates with the 1857 publication of Charles Baudelaire's '' Les Fleurs du mal''. The works of Edgar Allan Poe, which Baudelaire admired greatly and translated into French, were a significant influence and the source of many stock tropes and images. The aesthetic was developed by Stéphane Mallarmé and Paul Verlaine during the 1860s and 1870s. In the 1880s, the aesthetic was articulated by a series of manifestos and attracted a generation of writers. The term "symbolist" was first applied by the critic Jean Moréas, who invented the term to distinguish the Symbolists from the related Decadents of literature and of art. Etymology The term ''symbolism'' is derived from the word "symbol" which derives fr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
