This work‟s scope was to research the storytellers. It is known that the storytellers are part of human history since its beginning. And some of their traces can be found on the cave walls in as drawings in many parts of the world. The storytelling is related to the exchange of experiences, the preservation of memory, the educational and recreational activities. However, even with reports of the professional practice of some storytellers since the sixteenth century, with the passage of time, there were several social changes that apparently indicated that there would be a setback in this activity. Although, by performing a (re-) reading of this practice, some of the today storytellers have been finding in the storytelling a way of entertainment as well as a work field. They work in different public and private spaces. Concerning to the tax breaks for cultural practices, the government has shown by creating some laws that culture needs to be valued, not only for his unquestionable representative value of ways of living and relate in society, but also for its ability to generate wealth and produce income, in other words, for its socio-economic importance. Thus, it became interesting to conduct a reflection of how the Brazilian Constitutions, as it is at the top of the legal system, contemplated over time, the actions for Culture. However, it was needed to approach more closely the 1988 Constitution, as this is the Brazilian Constitution which is currently operating. In this research, we also highlight how culture, the storytellers themselves and their narratives were widespread in the cultural scenario of the city of Uberlândia. Showing thus some of its achievements, troubles and perspectives to act in a professional manner, with the art of telling a story.

The proposed research in question that is inserted in the perspective of New Cultural History, is based on the relationship between imaginary and cultural representations, focusing on aspects such as family, daily life, the approach of the media (Última Hora) with Vargas politician power (1951-1954). The objective of this research is to realize the aspects of honor and morality in Brazil, with the backdrop of the historicity of Nelson Rodrigues narrative and his journalistic look, concerning the context of relationships in the golden years (1950-1964), portrayed in his chronic-tales, in the universe of the newspaper. Some questions instigate and lead us to propose the research, among them: How are such relationships presented in their chronic-tales? Which speeches passed by the family institution? Which female and male images are represented in his work? How did the author conceive journalism and his way of writing? Our hypothesis is that the writer, revealing through social representations the urban context of his time, captured through his lens, the "little things" of daily life such as urban practices related to cases of adultery, that were critisised by the strong sexual morality emanating from the discourses that passed by the family. The focus of the research is to understand the social implications of Nelson Rodrigues writing and his image as a journalist of daily life, and understand the wide impact of his textual universe. His popularity comes from the sensitive incomparable wit for portraying facts inherent in everyday life and thus he gained wide prominence in the society of his time, but also he gained labels as immoral writer. We try to approach a rich period in the composition of his journalistic universe, in view of the importance of the author as an intellectual linked to the social tensions of his time, and promote a less narrow view of his work in the contemporaneity. The purpose of the research is to penetrate in the vast and exciting social imaginary field produced by literary narrative of Nelson Rodrigues and social representations of everyday life. We will have as main documentary corpus the work in prose A vida como ela é ... O homem fiel e outros contos that were selected and published by the writer and critic Ruy Castro, and which originally were published in his daily post ―A vida como ela é ...‖ in Samuel Wainer s Última Hora newspaper during the years 1951-1961.

En el ritmo del funk y en los flujos de suburbios brasileños, jóvenes sueñan y apuestan sus vidas en el lujo, en la riqueza y en el éxito. Sentimientos que circulan entre niños y niñas de las \"villas\" en las últimas tres décadas y que resuenan en la voz de los MC de funk. Inquieto con estas cuestiones, dirijo mi atención a los dispositivos de la sociedad de consumo de masas que sujetan estos jóvenes, las performances que conforman los juegos de poder en la sociedad contemporánea y los modos de subjetivación evidentes en este movimiento cultural. A través de la intersección de las fuentes orales, escritas, iconográficas y musicales, y con el apoyo de marcos teóricos que entienden que las prácticas culturales se comportan la racionalidad, sentimientos y sensibilidades de los sujetos sociales, anhelo comprender las experiencias que se tejen en el mundo contemporáneo, expresadas por los agentes aquí investigado, así como la producción de subjetividad inherente en este contexto que se favorece el consumo y las prácticas ostentosas. El funk se revela, por lo tanto, como un ardid, de la cual es posible capturar y analizar las experiencias de los jóvenes residentes en las periferias brasileñas y sus tentaciones, ansiedades, conflictos y logros.

This study approaches the experiences of the Distribution Centre workers atUberlândia city, taking their memories to form a conducting wire in the direction of dialectical process that enabled the construction of Uberlandia s CEASA, in 1978. Oral sources led us to think the conditions experienced by childrenlooking forfood in the 70 s at public spaces of the city. The press was a field where conflicts engendered stereotypes about the poor, based on hegemonic groupsvalues, in order to set limits for workers.The creation of Uberlandia sDistribution Centre in conjunction with the creation of other institutions aimed to discipline the poor spresence in the most noble and visible places ofthe town. The main objective presented to justify the CEASA screation was to move the transit of food transport vehicles to the margins of the city. During the research, we found another objective of equal importance in displacement of own social struggle, with the removal of poor children and beggars who bothered in the people at the markets and the Municipal Market. In the CEASAwe can understand the experiences of the workers seeking to improve the material living conditions facing many dangers of occupational accidents, in the midst of a struggle for rightsprocess. Furthermore, we still can see that, three decades after the Distribution Centre creation, the presence of poor children looking forfood wastage will continue strong and it will motivate new official containment measures such as the creation of the Food Bank Program, with proposes food s donationfor poor families directly in their own neighborhoods.

The Mexican Revolution outbreak, in 1910, revealed the instability of the economic, political, and social processes that had been gestated in the country since the independence period. Beyond these aspects, the Revolution was felt in the arts, in music, literature, iconography, and in other cultural manifestations. It is in cultural analysis that the theme of this dissertation is justified, whose objective is to identify Zapatista representations found in popular songs known as corridos. Part of the proposed methodology of this study consisted of bibliographical and documentary research, based on the collection, selection, and analysis of Mexican corridos produced during the revolutionary period. Simultaneously, there is a try to understand the role of the corridos as a means of communication between farmers and as an instrument of propagation of Zapatista ideals. In this sense, this study establishes a dialogue with historiographic production and seeks to evidence the relationship between history and popular culture by giving special emphasis to popular music. Such interactions involving political and socio-cultural experiences can, most undoubtedly, uncover other scenarios of Zapatismo and of the construction of revolutionary memory.
