Abstract

NEZ, Egeslaine de  and  SIEBIGER, Ralf Hermes. Apontamentos sobre vieses alienantes nos versos da música popular brasileira. Acta Scientiarum. Education [online]. 2011, vol.33, n.01, pp.01-09. ISSN 2178-5201.

Through analysis of some phases and styles in Brazilian popular music that emerged between the 1950s and 80s, this article seeks to identify some alienating biases in the lyrics of songs written in the styles mentioned. The study assumes the concept of alienation found in Marx, translated as a phenomenon involving the alienation of man from his reality, as well as the development of a cultural industry as defined by Adorno. The analysis of lyrics was also part of the Cinema in the University Extension Project of Continuing Education Alumni and Graduates of Vale do Teles Pires Campus. The article points to the need for more observation on the part of society and especially by educators, with regard to alienating traits and/or those intended exclusively for mass consumption, which music production can often assume, keeping in mind a critical analysis of this scenario in order to construct a cultural citizenship.

Keywords : Alienation; Brazilian Popular Music; Cultural Industry; Cultural Citizenship.
