Since the twentieth century São Paulo has been a vital economic centre showing in its fast growth and industrialization the dynamism that makes it the true cultural capital of the country.

On the one hand, the modernist poets such as Mário de Andrade and Oswald de Andrade were able to understand, in the first decades of the twentieth century, the various overlapped and contradictory sides of the city of São Paulo as well as incorporating them into their texts; on the other hand, how do its poets reckon the city now?

Abstract

Since the twentieth century São Paulo has been a vital economic centre showing in its fast growth and industrialization the dynamism that makes it the true cultural capital of the country. Today, it is a tentacular megalopolis of more than 25 million inhabitants, advanced in many ways despite its apparent stratifications, walls and wounds. On the one hand, the modernist poets such as Mário de Andrade and Oswald de Andrade were able to understand, in the first decades of the twentieth century, the various overlapped and contradictory sides of the city of São Paulo as well as incorporating them into their texts; on the other hand, how do its poets reckon the city now? Which neighbourhoods, streets, squares and avenues have been going through a time of dispersion and disintegration in which rhythm has become frantic? What beings fill their poems? In order to answer such questions, I will focus on two poets who address the city of São Paulo in an intimate and visceral way, Donizete Galvão and Fabio Weintraub. The books involved in this investigation have been O homem inacabado (2010) and Falso trajeto (2016), respectively by Donizete Galvão (1955-2124) and Fabio Weintraub 1967).
