A LITERATURA DE CORDEL E SEUS ESPAÇOS DE VIVÊNCIA E MEMÓRIA: UMA LEITURA DO MUSEU DO CORDEL OLEGÁRIO FERNANDES

Abstract

This work aims to reflect on the multiple forms of sociability in cordel literature in contemporary Brazil, from the “traditional” old fairs to the mainstream media, such as current social networks and soap operas. We will also discuss an appreciation of the Brazilian cordel leaflets, recognized by many as part of the popular northeastern culture, from a visit to the Olegário Fernandes Cordel Museum, in the city of Caruaru, in Pernambuco. In this way, we will be able to analyze the importance of visiting cultural spaces in the Northeast and how the visibility of culture, identity and northeastern memory is built in other regions of the country. In this work we will bring theorists such as Abreu (2006), Albuquerque Júnior (2013), Crippa (2013), Galvão (2006) and Le Goff (2003) as the main drivers of this theme.
