"Uma coisa ninguém discute: se Zacarias morreu, o seu corpo não foi enterrado. A única pessoa que poderia dar informações certas sobre o
assunto sou eu. Porém estou impedido de fazê-lo porque os meus companheiros fogem de mim, tão logo me avistam pela frente. Quando
apanhados de surpresa, ficam estarrecidos e não conseguem articular uma palavra. Em verdade morri, o que vem de encontro à versão dos que
creem na minha morte. Por outro lado, também não estou morto, pois faço tudo o que antes fazia e, devo dizer, com mais agrado do que
anteriormente" (RUBIÃO, M. O pirotécnico Zacarias. São Paulo: Ática, 1974). 
Entendendo a literatura fantástica como modo, alguns autores localizam a obra de Murilo Rubião dentro desta definição. De acordo com o trecho
acima, o elemento insólito manifesta-se no (a):
Todorov separa o gênero maravilhoso puro de outras narrativas que apresentam o fenômeno maravilhoso, mas sob algumas justificativas. Como
exemplo utiliza a obra As mil e uma noites e faz menção ao episódio em que uma cobra de proporções descomunais é capaz de engolir um
elefante. Leia as alternativas abaixo e marque a definição correta para essa forma do maravilhoso.
"Não era um jogo da imaginação, mas um realismo que refletia fielmente uma realidade até então invisível" (PIETRI, Arturo Uslar. Godos,
Insurgentes y Visionarios. Barcelona: Seix Barral, 1986, p.135).
Nesta sentença, Arturo Pietri resume o movimento que revolucionou a literatura na América Latina. Assinale a alternativa que contém a pretensão
dos autores.
Tolkien is considered the father of modern fantasy. Below you will find the opening paragraph of Tolkien's The Hobbit. After reading the excerpt
below, read affirmatives below and then mark the option indicating the correct set of affirmatives.
4570FUNDAMENTOS FILOSÓFICOS E CRÍTICOS DO CONCEITO DE FANTÁSTICO
 
1.
relato introspectivo acerca da experiência da morte.
expressão natural do evento fantástico, realizando um jogo entre o real e o sobrenatural.
efeito paradoxal provocado pela organização temporal.
separação entre realidade e delírio na experiência de morte do narrador.
explicação racional do evento sobrenatural.
Data Resp.: 06/06/2023 13:50:32
Explicação:
O fantástico como modo abarca não apenas as obras de diferentes períodos históricos, como também de regionalidades distintas. Sua
premissa é a presença de eventos sobrenaturais na narrativa que respondem à um imaginário cultural a que representam. Na citação da obra
de Rubião, o fantástico se manifesta no jogo entre real e sobrenatural, quando o narrador afirma está morto, mas continua fazendo as
mesmas coisas de quando vivo.
 
2.
Maravilhoso científico.
Maravilhoso instrumental.
Maravilhoso hiperbólico.
Maravilhoso exótico.
Maravilhoso puro.
Data Resp.: 06/06/2023 18:04:35
Explicação:
Para Todorov, algumas manifestações do insólito, nas narrativas, não se enquadram no gênero maravilhoso puro, pois, de alguma forma,
justificam a presença do evento sobrenatural. No caso de As mil e uma noites, o autor exemplifica com a existência de seres descomunais na
obra, que provocam estranhamento pelo excesso, deste exagero advém a classificação como maravilhoso hiperbólico.
 
3.
Expandir o conceito de mimesis literária para abraçar o que havia de universal na América latina.
Reescrever a história do continente americano sob o olhar do colonizador.
Aproximar-se do modelo surrealista, considerado um modelo adequado.
Buscar no cotidiano mágico a identidade latino-americana.
Reafirmar a cultura colonialista através da reprodução fiel da realidade.
Data Resp.: 06/06/2023 18:06:29
Explicação:
Os movimentos literários de meados do século XX na América Latina procuravam romper com os modelos europeus, mergulhando na cultura
nacional, onde a magia se fazia presente no cotidiano. Logo, a sentença "Buscar no cotidiano mágico a identidade latino-americana" é a única
alternativa correta.

4.
In a hole in the ground, there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy
hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to wat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort (TOLKIEN, 2012, p. 1).
Source: TOLKIEN, J. R. R. The Hobbit. New York: Ballantine Books, 2012.
I. The first paragraph of The Hobbit gives an account of a Secondary World, fully established as such.
II. In this paragraph, Tolkien fails to present from the start a moral dilemma which would explain the character's quest throughout the book.
III. This paragraph is a good example of how Tolkien used both Coleridge's notions of "fancy" and "imagination".
 
The Hobbit by Tolkien was published in 1937 and received wide critical acclaim. Choose the alternative that contains a true statement about the
novel.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge, in 1817, famously elaborated on the difference between "fancy" and "imagination". Bearing this information in mind,
assess the following statements:
I. His discussions on "fancy" and "imagination" were fundamental for the establishment of fantasy as a genre.
BECAUSE
II. They paved the way for a different take on fantasy.
II, only.
I, II and III.
II a III, only.
I and III, only.
I, only.
Data Resp.: 06/06/2023 18:06:52
Explicação:
Not only in this paragraph are we set in a Secondary world, unlike our Earth, in which some kind of creature (the hobbits) live cozily in a hole,
but also the ground hole is apparently the organizing domestic space of the community where a hobbit lives. After all, in this narrative there is
something linguistically recognizable as a "hobbit-hole", named and identified as such in relation to comfort. Therefore, the opening paragraph
introduces this Secondary World, where the action will take place, establishing, this way a point of departure for the narrative. The only correct
option is "The first paragraph of The Hobbit gives an account of a Secondary World, fully established as such".
 
5.
The novel fails to account for the epic nature demanded by high fantasy as a genre.
Tolkien collects a series of symbolic and cultural references of the Western world to compose his secondary world.
The novel is a clear example of a low fantasy novel, since the setting is our ordinary world.
Briefly, the story of The Hobbit is about Gandalf's adventures and how the wizard was intercepted by the warlike hobbits.
The novel as a whole does not relate to the genre of high fantasy as it does not entail a quest.
Data Resp.: 06/06/2023 20:46:39
Explicação:
The only correct answer is:"Tolkien collects a series of symbolic and cultural references of the Western world to compose his secondary world",
as the novel is full of mythological recoveries, as exemplified by Smaug, the dragon. The other alternatives, however, do not conceive the novel
as an example of the genre of high fantasy when, in fact, it contains all the elements required by the genre: a quest, a fully developed
secondary world, it is epic in nature. What's more, The Hobbit, as the title suggests revolves around a hobbit: Bilbo Baggins.

Explicação:
Coleridge's discussions on "fancy" and "imagination" found in his Biographia Literaria helped, alongside the Romantics who followed his
thoughts, pave the way for a distinct conceptualization for fantasy fiction and the role of the fantastic in narratives. Prior to his thoughts, fantasy
was perceived as a form of "escapism". Coleridge and the other romantics, therefore, elevated the status of fantasy. Nevertheless, it was not
merely the creation and defense of the concepts of "fancy" and "imagination" that resolved the problems that critics had with the fantastic in
literature, but it definitelypaved the way for a new take on fantasy.

"The Monkey's Paw" is, first of all, the materialization of the consequences of defying fate.
"The Monkey's Paw" was not a very popular short story, so there is not much to say about its influence.
"The Monkey's Paw" was adapted into more than fifty different adaptations ranging from literature to films.
"The Monkey's Paw" was not meant for every reading audience to read it.
"The Monkey's Paw" was conceived as a novel, but Jacobs decided later on to make it into a short story.

Explicação:
In 1902, William Wymark Jacobs published for the first time his famous short story, "The Monkey's Paw", which has been anthologized in
collections of short stories around the world almost from the moment it first came out. It is significant how deep into United States' cultural
manifestations "The Monkey's Paw" has been since its publishing. Its pop culture references include a 1991 episode from The Simpsons
special "Treehouse of Horror II", in which the plot of the short story is adapted into the small screen, a 1973 episode of "Orson Welles Great
Mysteries", an episode of supernatural series "The X-Files", as well as episodes from cartoons such as "Adventure Time" and "Rick and
Morty".

I and II are true, II is a correct justification of I.
I and II are false.

Explicação:
The Grimms (and Jacob particularly) believed that the hardworking people living in German's countryside were supposed to be idealized for the
means through which they guided their lives. Even though both sentences are correct, the fact that the idealization of the countryfolk was part
of their intent, it does not explain their search for the essence of the German identity. Because their searched for the essence of the German
identity was that they could idealize the hardworking countrymen.
