Dissertação (Mestrado em Performances Culturais) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2020.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tede/10415The work aims at the representations of the fictional politician and colonel Odorico Paraguaçu of the soap opera O Bem-amado, in 1973. Designed by Dias Gomes, the soap opera challenged the political and historical period of that moment, the Brazilian military dictatorship. In the regime's view, the author was a subversive, but Dias Gomes, as a popular national playwright, did not allow himself to be intimidated and transformed Odorico into the portrait of several individuals who followed a unique, predictable and almost unchanging, even among political opponents. Odorico became a criticism that turned the real-life tragedy caused by most politicians into comedy. In order to understand the game of Odorico's representation, it was identified that the questions were transdisciplinary and could be encompassed by the studies of cultural performances, mainly as understood by Erving Goffman and Richard Bauman, thus, the communicative resources used by the author and the actor, Paulo Gracindo that interpreted Odorico, they were analyzed as cultural performances. Therefore, the character Odorico Paraguaçu performed through social frames as a moralist, colonel and populist, and during the telenovela, his actions become part of this character's personal and scenic facades, which revolve around his effort as a politician to please the population of the fictional city of Sucupira and inaugurate its campaign promise to the city hall: a cemetery, testing the efficiency of its representation. The comparison between the frames of the character Odorico and the politicians previous and contemporary to him, took place through bibliographic research mainly in digital collections of documents of the time. The performatically related data showed that Odorico's way of acting did not differ in the total forms of representations employed by politicians that existed in the Brazilian reality, most of the time with similar intentionality.application/pdfAcesso AbertoTeleficçãoPerformances culturaisCultura políticaTelefictionCultural performancesPolitical cultureARTES::TEATRODissertação
