the troubadour

Feelings in me of the rough
of the men of the first ages…
the springs of sarcasm
intermittently in my harlequin heart…
Intermittently...
Other times it's sick, a cold
in my sick soul like a long round sound...
Cantabone! Cantabone!
Dlorom...
I'm a Tupi playing a lute!

ANDRADE, M. In: MANFIO, D. Z. (Org.) Complete poems by Mário de Andrade.
Belo Horizonte: Itatiaia, 2005.

Dear to Modernism, the question of national identity is recurrent in Mário de Andrade's prose and poetry. In the troubadour, this aspect is:

a) approached subliminally, through expressions such as “harlequin heart”, which, evoking carnival, refers to Brazilianness.
b) already verified in the title, which refers to the northeastern repentistas, studied by Mário de Andrade in his travels and folkloric researches.
c) lamented by the lyrical self, both in the use of expressions such as “Feelings in me of the rough” (v. 1), “cold” (v. 6), “sick soul” (v. 7), as by the sad sound of the lute “Dlorom” (v. 9).
d) problematized in the Tupi (wild) x lute (civilized) opposition, pointing to the national synthesis that would be proposed in the Anthropophagous Manifesto, by Oswald de Andrade.
e) exalted by the lyrical self, which evokes the “feelings of men from the early ages” to show Brazilian pride in its indigenous roots.

The) Anthropophagic Manifest; Manifest of Brazil and Macunaíma.
B) Anthropological Manifesto; Manifest of Brazil and Macunaíma.
ç) Anthropophagic Manifest; Brazilwood and Macunaíma.
d) Anthropophagic Manifest; Brazilwood and Aboriginal Manifest.
