Resumo: Following Andreas Huyssen’s path (2014), who pinpoints a pivotal concern with memory in contemporary culture, a response to Western societies’ decreasing confidence in the future, the article seeks to examine how contemporary Brazilian cinema has been elaborating historical experience. To do so, we have created a small inventory, experimenting with the grouping of films in series, in order to indicate and characterize recurring “figures of historical elaboration” in such filmography. The emphasis on the “present as history” stands out in our mapping: under the shade of a “past that does not pass” or designed as “the reverse of the future” the present becomes the center of these films.

Para tanto, realiza um pequeno inventário, testando a reunião dos filmes em séries, de modo a indicar e caracterizar “figuras de elaboração histórica” recorrentes nessa filmografia. Em nosso mapeamento, destaca-se a aposta no “presente como história”: sob a sombra de um “passado que não passa” ou desenhado como “avesso do futuro”, o presente ganha centralidade nessas obras.ABEC2021-11-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.e-compos.org.br/e-compos/article/view/246310.30962/ec.2463E-Compós; Vol. 26 (2023): E-Compós 2023E-Compós; Vol. 26 (2023): E-Compós 2023E-Compós; v. 26 (2023): E-Compós 20231808-2599reponame:E-Compósinstname:Associação Nacional dos Programas de Pós-Graduação em Comunicaçãoinstacron:ANPPCporhttps://www.e-compos.org.br/e-compos/article/view/2463/2052Copyright (c) 2021 Claudia Mesquitahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMesquita, Claudia2023-12-31T01:53:51Zoai:ojs.www.e-compos.org.br:article/2463Revistahttps://www.e-compos.org.br/e-compos/PUBhttps://www.e-compos.org.br/e-compos/oairevistaecompos@gmail.com1808-25991808-2599opendoar:2023-12-31T01:53:51E-Compós - Associação Nacional dos Programas de Pós-Graduação em Comunicaçãofalse
