Resumo: | Published in the 1930s, Ferreira de Castro’s The Jungle is one of the ten most widely read novels in the world. Adapted for the cinema in 2002 by director Leonel Vieira, it tells the story of Alberto, a young Portuguese monarchist who finds himself exiled in the Amazon jungle, full of danger, beauty and challenges for those who have left Portugal in search of a different future. After briefly outlining the beginning of the novel, this article aims to study, based on Edgar Morin’s work Le cinéma ou l’homme imaginaire, how cinema has changed reality and also works of fiction, in this case in particular, using the example of The Jungle. The aim is to discover the Hollywood part of Ferreira de Castro’s novel, through the lens of filmmaker Leonel Vieira’s camera, bearing in mind that many passages written in the novel have been altered by the plot of the film. As we have seen with the alleged carnal consumption of the protagonist, or with the creation of a new character (Velasco), in the film, to satisfy the conceptions of co-production of the three countries involved in the project: Portugal, Spain and Brazil, to name but a few examples.The methodology used in the article favours the use of qualitative techniques aimed at cross-referencing sources and documentary analysis of the works in question, establishing a parallel with the film by the Portuguese director. Thus, following this exhibition, an initial question is proposed that will guide this reflection: “What are the differences between Leonel Vieira’s film The Jungle and the literary work by Ferreira de Castro that gave birth to it?” |

Adaptado para o cinema em 2002 pelo realizador Leonel Vieira, conta a história de Alberto, um jovem monárquico português que se vê exilado na selva amazónica, repleta de perigos, belezas e desafios para aqueles que deixaram Portugal em busca de um futuro diferente. Após uma breve apresentação do início do romance, este artigo pretende estudar, com base na obra de Edgar Morin Le cinéma ou l’homme imaginaire, como o cinema alterou a realidade e também as obras de ficção, neste caso em particular, utilizando o exemplo de A Selva. O objetivo é descobrir a parte hollywoodesca do romance de Ferreira de Castro, através da lente da câmara do cineasta Leonel Vieira, tendo em conta que muitas passagens escritas no romance foram alteradas pelo enredo do filme, como se verificou com a suposta consumação carnal do protagonista, ou com a criação de uma nova personagem (Velasco) no filme, para satisfazer as conceções de coprodução dos três países envolvidos no projeto: Portugal, Espanha e Brasil, para citar apenas alguns exemplos.A metodologia utilizada no artigo privilegia o uso de técnicas qualitativas que visam o cruzamento de fontes e a análise documental das obras em questão, estabelecendo um paralelo com o filme do realizador português. Assim, na sequência desta exposição, propõe-se uma questão inicial que orientará esta reflexão: “Quais as diferenças entre o filme A Selva de Leonel Vieira e a obra literária de Ferreira de Castro que lhe deu origem?”Universidade de Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro2023-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.58155/revistadeletras.v1i8.450https://doi.org/10.58155/revistadeletras.v1i8.450Revista de Letras UTAD; Vol 1 No 8 (2023): Revista de Letras / Communication Sciences; 123-139Revista de Letras UTAD; Vol. 1 Núm. 8 (2023): Revista de Letras / Ciencias de la Comunicación; 123-139Revista de Letras UTAD; Vol 1 Nº 8 (2023): Revista de Letras / Ciências da Comunicação; 123-1392975-89550874-7962reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistadeletras.utad.pt/index.php/revistadeletras/article/view/450https://revistadeletras.utad.pt/index.php/revistadeletras/article/view/450/244Direitos de Autor (c) 2023 Daniela Monteiro da Fonseca, Natália de Sousa Amarantehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessda Fonseca, Daniela MonteiroAmarante, Natália de Sousa2024-02-10T05:03:18Zoai:ojs.revistas.utad.pt:article/450Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T00:55:44.700940Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
