Cotidiano, violência entre música e poesia em Capítulo 4, Versículo 3 e Eu sou 157, de Racionais MC’s

Abstract

The social function of literature in Brazil has always been present, going beyond aesthetic enjoyment. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the interaction between music and poetry, using the compositions Capítulo 4, Versículo 3 and Eu Sou 157 by the national rap group Racionais MC's. The research seeks to uncover the mechanisms through which the lyrical narratives of these compositions articulate and interpret everyday experience marked by violence, transcending artistic appreciation to form and everyday life. By exploring the poetic choices, social metaphors and stylistic resources present in these songs, we intend to shed light on how violence literature manifests itself in this specific context. Thus, the methodology seeks to unite analyzes on the form, content, and stylistic resources of the aforementioned songs. Therefore, taking the research of a bibliographic and qualitative nature, we seek to outline a study on everyday life and violence between music and poetry, in the chosen compositions, based on the theoretical studies of Berezoschi (2017), Cavalcanti (2009), Chauí (2019), Contier (2005), Garcia (2004), Ginzburg (2017), Goldstein (2006), Moraes (2021), Motta (2009), Oliveira (2018), Ribeiro (2019), Ribeiro (2021), Rodrigues (1990), Salgueiro (2022) and Soares ( 2017).
