Resumo: | The article assumes that many songs produced by Brazilian rock bands in the early 1980s help us to understand the political and existential disenchantment of many young people of the time. The text retrieves information about this historical moment of Brazilian culture, delimited as a time frame (80s until the mid-90s), focusing on the poetic-literary production of Renato Russo, composer, lyricist and vocalist of the band Legião Urbana. The article argues that Renato Russo offered in his lyrics a true portrait of a slice of the middle-class youth of the time, especially young people born and / or raised in the Federal Capital (Brasília) who faced the contradictory situation of being the children of public officials and state agencies in full force of the military dictatorship. The cultural climate of disenchantment, bureaucratization, pressures and family conflicts was very well perceived by the lyricist who, through the band’s songs, expressed these anxieties and yearnings for freedom. The text seeks clues to understand that the great success of Renato Russo with the young people of the time, is due to the fact that he managed to offer in his lyrics the political and existential disenchantment of this generation. |

O texto recupera informações sobre esse momento histórico da cultura brasileira, delimitado como marco temporal (anos 80 até meados dos anos 90), focalizando na produção poético-literária de Renato Russo, compositor, letrista e vocalista da banda Legião Urbana. O artigo sustenta que Renato Russo oferecia em suas letras um verdadeiro retrato de uma fatia da juventude de classe-média da época, principalmente jovens nascidos e/ou criados na Capital Federal (Brasília) que enfrentaram a situação contraditória de serem filhos de funcionários-públicos e estatais em pleno vigor da ditadura militar. O clima cultural de desencanto, burocratização, pressões e conflitos familiares foi muito bem percebido pelo letrista que, através das canções da banda expressava essas angústias e anseios de liberdade. O texto busca pistas para compreender que o grande sucesso de Renato Russo junto aos jovens da época, deve-se ao fato de ter conseguido oferecer em suas letras o desencanto político e existencial dessa geração.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2022-05-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo avaliado pelos Paresapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/5399810.23925/2236-9937.2022v26p76-102Teoliteraria - Journal of Literatures and Theologies (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 12 No. 26 (2022): Temas de Teologias e Literaturas; 76-102Teoliteraria - Revista de Literaturas y Teologías (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 12 Núm. 26 (2022): Temas de Teologias e Literaturas; 76-102TEOLITERARIA - Revista de Literaturas e Teologias; v. 12 n. 26 (2022): Temas de Teologias e Literaturas; 76-1022236-9937reponame:Teoliteráriainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/53998/39674https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/53998/40035Copyright (c) 2022 TEOLITERARIA - Revista de Literaturas e Teologiashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPaiva, Ingrit JeampietriCalvani, Carlos Eduardo2022-05-27T11:27:29Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/53998Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliterariaPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliteraria/oaialex@teoliteraria.com||teoliteraria@teoliteraria.com2236-99372236-9937opendoar:2022-05-27T11:27:29Teoliterária - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false |
