My Father’s Story: I’ll Play You Right Away… So How Do the Second Generation Remember? The aim of the article is to discuss the life story of the survivor, Majer Jesion and the joint work of daughter and father on discovering memory and the past, as well as to analyze the result of this work: the spectacle 121 023 J (dir. Ariel Goldmann, Sao Paulo), including the construction of the history and stage spaces with the usage of props to visualize the difficult past. In 2002, Renata Jesion decided to put on stage the traumatic story of her father in which she embodied him on stage. The theater medium serves her in the intergenerational transmission of the memory of the Holocaust. This monodrama will be analyzed in the light of the theory of post-memory (M. Hirsch), testifying through the medium of the theater (G. Niziołek, F. Rokem), and Self-Revelatory Performance (R. Emunah, A. Volkas).

Over the past decade there has been an unprecedented surge of interest in taiko ensemble drumming (kumi-daiko) in Brazil, with more than 150 ensembles currently performing in states all across the country. This paper focuses on the performance and pedagogy of Setsuo Kinoshita, a second-generation Japanese Brazilian taiko musician and composer who maintains a successful taiko academy in São Paulo, Brazil and directs two ensembles, Wadaiko Sho and Setsuo Kinoshita Taiko Group. Based on class and performance observation, as well as interviews conducted with Kinoshita and his students between 2003 and 2013, this study argues that Brazilian styles of taiko practice, which work to heal the traumas of ethnic exclusion from the Brazilian nation state, emerge at the crossroads of Japanese and Brazilian kinesonic repertoires.

Professional dancing in São Paulo, Brazil, developed from the 1950s on, with a constant and strong influence from modern dance. As modernism looked disapprovingly at ballet, seeing it as something from the past, prejudice grew in the city toward the form. Directors and choreographers of dance companies currently speak about ballet and contemporary ballet as something that is done, but always by others, never themselves. Even the word “ballet” is avoided, since it seems to diminish the works being discussed, as it became something strictly associated with dance training, and not professional dance. This chapter investigates the roots of ballet in São Paulo, discussing both its origins and the origins of its rejection, while pointing to the recent indications of its newfound public interest.

This chapter examines the use of aesthetic and discursive elements in the production of a narrative about República, a district in the central area of São Paulo (Brazil) that has been transformed through a real estate boom in the past ten years. We focus on newly built studio apartments, and on the efforts to differentiate them from the quitinetes, apartments with similar features built in the 1950s and 1960s that have been heavily stigmatized. We situate our analysis of this purposeful urban transformation within a context intertwined with urban marketing, publicity, and image making. Our research shows the strong presence of an industrial aesthetic in the area, which we understand as being a deliberate echo of the gentrification process that took place in SoHo in New York City in the 1970s.

Abstract Previous studies have shown that many children of former Nazi perpetrators either identify with their parents by denying their atrocities, by distancing them-selves emotionally from their parents, or by acknowledging their participation in the extermination process. Through a hermeneutical case study of the narrated life story of a Euthanasia physician's daughter, a type of strategy, which we defined as pseudo-identification with the victim, is reconstructed. The results of the analysis suggest that this is a repair strategy. Putting oneself in the role of one's parents' victim provides refuge from acknowledging possible identification with Nazism and its idols, as well as identifying oneself with the real victims of one's parents. In this case, the psychological consequences of this strategy are described: The woman still suffers from extermination anxieties which block further working through of the past.

The city of São Paulo, historically important as a destination for migrants from across the world, has experienced newer waves of immigration in the past few decades. As Brazilian national legislation and municipal policies have been ill prepared to handle these recent flows, migrants find themselves without much institutional support and rely instead on other networks to find their way in the city. This article is based on ethnographic research among low-income migrants in São Paulo, many of whom are employed as tailors and garment vendors in the city’s thriving central commercial neighbourhoods. Migrants from Bolivia, Peru, China, Pakistan and Nepal co-exist alongside working-class Brazilians. This article traces the everyday forms of conviviality among these migrants who find themselves in precarious conditions in São Paulo. It will consider the lines along which friendships and networks of support and sociability are built and the depth of such relationships. It also considers the points of tension which divide people and strain potential friendships, for instance, when migrants compete to sell their goods and are exploited by ‘fellow migrants’ to survive in the city. What we see is an ambivalent field of interaction that is convivial yet competitive and distrustful.

Transgenerational Memory: From Pre-Holocaust to Post-YugoslaviaThe study focuses on Fanika as an example of documentary writing by firstand second-generation survivors, i.e. women in the mother-daughter relationship (Hanna Altarac/Fanika Lučić and Branka Jovičić), both from Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. The timeline of the life story of Hanna/Fanika, born in 1922 in a Sephardic family from Sarajevo, coincides on the macro level with the history of Yugoslavia (the establishment of the state and the interwar period, World War Two and the Holocaust, the postwar socialist period, the break-up of the country and post-Yugoslavia), which is important for the contextualization of the narrative. We have analyzed the motivation of first-generation survivor Fanika Lučić to present her memories of the Holocaust, highlighting the importance of communicative memory as an instrument of their transmission to a second-generation survivor as well as the process involved in their transfer from private to public narrative. Further analysis refers to the generic frames of the narrative, its hybrid character, and its liminal position at a point where biography and autobiography meet and interact. Mediation is a key procedure in Fanika, so attention has been dedicated to determining the degrees of mediation, their variation throughout the narrative and their impact on the substructures (narrative segments). Finally, we have identified, interpreted, and contextualized several gender markers appearing at various levels of the text. In conclusion, the book was designed not only to transmit the Holocaust testimony of Fanika Lučić, but also to provide a biographical account of her life in socialist Yugoslavia, her experience of the war in Bosnia, and the final phase of her life as a Canadian immigrant. Transgenerational memory and gender play a key role in the hybrid structure of this book, which is a welcome contribution to Yugoslav Holocaust literature. Pamięć międzypokoleniowa: od czasów przed Holokaustem do okresu postjugosłowiańskiegoArtykuł analizuje książkę Fanika jako przykład prozy dokumentalnej, autorstwa dwóch kobiet należących kolejno do pierwszego i drugiego pokolenia ocalałych z Holokaustu. Są to pochodzące z Sarajewa matka i córka – Hanna Altarac/Fanika Lučic i Branka Jovičic. Ramy czasowe historii życia Hanny/Faniki (ur. 1922 w sefardyjskiej rodzinie) zbiegają się z historią Jugosławii (powstanie państwa i okres międzywojenny, II wojna światowa i Holokaust, powojenny socjalistyczny okres, rozpad kraju i okres postjugosłowiański), co stanowi istotny punkt wyjścia dla kontekstualizacji narracji. W artykule poddano analizie zarówno motywację ocalałej z pierwszego pokolenia Faniki Lučić do przedstawienia swoich wspomnień z Holokaustu, podkreślając znaczenie pamięci komunikacyjnej jako narzędzia służącego do przekazywania wspomnień ocalałemu z drugiego pokolenia, jak i proces transferu wspomnień z narracji prywatnej do publicznej. Dalsza analiza odnosi się do ogólnych ram narracji, jej hybrydowego charakteru i jej pozycji liminalnej w punkcie, w którym biografia i autobiografia spotykają się i współdziałają. Ponieważ mediacja jest procedurą kluczową w Fanice, zwrócono uwagę na określenie stopnia mediacji, jej zmienności poprzez narrację, a także jej wpływu na narracyjne podstruktury (segmenty narracyjne). Wreszcie zidentyfikowano, zinterpretowano i osadzono w kontekście kilka wyznaczników płci pojawiających się na różnych poziomach tekstu. Podsumowując, książka miała na celu nie tylko przekazanie świadectwa o Holokauście Faniki Lučić, ale także przedstawienie biograficznego opisu jej życia w socjalistycznej Jugosławii, jej doświadczeń wojny w Bośni i ostatniej fazy jej życia jako imigrantki w Kanadzie. Pamięć międzypokoleniowa i płeć odgrywają kluczową rolę w hybrydowej strukturze tej książki, która wnosi istotny wkład do jugosłowiańskiej literatury Holokaustu.

Postsurgical acute suppurative parotitis is a bacterial gland infection that occurs from a few days up to some weeks after abdominal surgical procedures. In this study, the authors analyze the prevalence of this complication in Hospital das Clínicas/São Paulo University Medical School by prospectively reviewing the charts of patients who underwent surgeries performed by the gastroenterological and general surgery staff from 1980 to 2005. Diagnosis of parotitis or sialoadenitis was analyzed. Sialolithiasis and chronic parotitis previous to hospitalization were exclusion criteria. In a total of 100,679 surgeries, 256 patients were diagnosed with parotitis or sialoadenitis. Nevertheless, only three cases of acute postsurgical suppurative parotitis associated with the surgery were identified giving an incidence of 0.0028%. All patients presented with risk factors such as malnutrition, immunosuppression, prolonged immobilization and dehydration. In the past, acute postsurgical suppurative parotitis was a relatively common complication after major abdominal surgeries. Its incidence decreased as a consequence of the improvement of perioperative antibiotic therapy and postoperative support. In spite of the current low incidence, we believe it is important to identify risks and diagnose as quick as possible, in order to introduce prompt and appropriate therapeutic measures and avoid potentially fatal complications with the evolution of the disease.

<p><span>Este artigo apresenta uma reflexão sobre a experiência política de jovens militantes das periferias da cidade de São Paulo. O trabalho se inscreve no esforço por compreender a vida associativa como parte de um processo de singularização dos atores políticos. Parte-se da premissa de que esses atores têm a possibilidade de agenciar elementos do passado e do presente na constituição de um repertório político. O artigo está em diálogo com os trabalhos que estudam o militantismo, enfatizando os processos de socialização política, embora esteja operando na chave analítica da subjetivação política. A reflexão aqui apresentada está baseada no material de uma pesquisa etnográfica multissituada, realizada em associações de bairro das periferias da cidade de São Paulo durante três anos. A análise desse material permite afirmar que os jovens militantes selecionam, se apropriam ou rejeitam alguns elementos políticos do passado, difusos sobre o território a partir de sua própria experiência social no universo da política. Sem refutar ou se submeter inteiramente às heranças do passado, os jovens militantes recriam diferentes relações políticas e novas configurações sociais.</span></p><div><p class="trans-title">YOUTH AND ASSOCIATIVE LIFE FROM THE PERIPHERIES OF SÃO PAULO</p><p>The present article focuses on the processes of political experience of young militants from the outskirts of the city of São Paulo, Brazil. It attempts to understand associative life as a process of individualization of political actors. This study is grounded in the assumption that these actors have the opportunity to make use of past and present elements as they build up their own political repertoire. Although this article holds discussions with other works which approach militancy emphasizing the processes of political socialization, its analysys is centered around analytical subjectivity. The reflections presented here have been based on a multi-sited ethnographic research conducted in residens’ Associations over the three years material. It has been allowed to say by its analysis that young militants select, appropriate or reject some political elements of the past from their own social experiences in the political field. Thus, without rebutting or submit entirely to the legacies of past, young militants recreate their own politics and relationships in this new social settings.</p><p><strong>Key words: </strong>Youth; Politics; Generational relations; Subjectivity</p></div><div><p class="trans-title">JEUNESSE ET VIE ASSOCIATIVE DANS LES BANLIEUES DE SÃO PAULO</p><p>Cet article présente une réflexion sur l’expérience politique de jeunes militants de la banlieue de São Paulo.
