Description
Summary:Antonio Candido has given many interviews throughout his life. Each of these interviews amounts to an opportunity not only to go deep into punctual matters within his intellectual production, but also to establish the due ties and implications among them. Arranged in a colloquial and intimate tone, such testimonies present invaluable depth, placing the role ideas play in communication with the historical moment he happens to be living at the time and his authorial worldview. This paper aims at analyzing the content of these testimonies, and therefore trying to locate- by means of Antonio Candido’s own considerations - his position as an intellectual before his objects of reflection and study. Moreover, we will scrutinize his conceptions of politics, society and education, paying attention to their integrative character, and we will be guided in this scrutiny by the mediation work that concepts and principles show, which will imprint their mark onto the personality of the scholar we are here paying homage to.
