Writing word (Bilac, Iessiênin and Augusto de Campos) and singing word (Toquinho and Belchior): stylistical aspects of the poem and the song in Literature and Brazilian Popular Music (MPB)

Assuming Literature and Brazilian Popular Music (MPB) as discoursive practices, this paper aims at analysing the stylistical aspects of three propositions of the genres poem and song, stated in the literary and "verbomusical" discoursive fields which are in intertextual dialogue. The analysed texts, under the perspective of Bakhtin and his Circle, are the poem Até logo, até logo, companheiro, as translated by Augusto de Campos from the original by Sierguéi Iessiênin; the almost homonymous song, set to music by Toquinho, from the translation by Campos; and the song Até mais ver, an adaptation of the poem by Iessiênin, as recorded by Belchior - who also refers to the poem In extremis, by Olavo Bilac. In our research, we verified how the interdiscoursive relation takes place, either contractual or polemycal, established by the author-creators Augusto de Campos, Toquinho and Belchior, from the original by Sierguéi Iessiênin.
