As cidades brasileiras são um campo em disputa — e se é na dimensão urbana que ocorrem muitas das opressões e preconceitos, também é nela que a população se organiza, trava lutas sociais e encontra soluções para a redução das desigualdades. Bianca Tavolari, editora da seção As Cidades e as Coisas na Quatro Cinco Um, e Joice Berth, arquiteta, escritora e autora de Se a Cidade Fosse Nossa, lançado Paz e Terra, discutem neste episódio a vida em metrópoles como São Paulo. O episódio faz parte do especial As Cidades e as Coisas, tema da edição de fevereiro da revista dos livros. Apoio Lei de Incentivo à Cultura. Apoie o 451 MHz: https://bit.ly/Assine451

This week’s Great Political Fiction is Ivan Turgenev’s Fathers and Sons (1862), the definitive novel about the politics – and emotions – of intergenerational conflict. How did Turgenev manage to write a wistful novel about nihilism? What made Russian politics in the early 1860s so chock-full of frustration? Why did Turgenev’s book infuriate his contemporaries – including Dostoyevsky?
More from the LRB:
Pankaj Mishra on the disillusionment of Alexander Herzen
'"Emancipation", he concluded, "has finally proved to be as insolvent as redemption".'
Julian Barnes on Turgenev and Flaubert
‘When the two of them meet, they are already presenting themselves as elderly men in their early forties (Turgenev asserts that after 40 the basis of life is renunciation).’

This week’s Great Political Fiction is Friedrich Schiller’s monumental play Mary Stuart (1800), which lays bare the impossible choices faced by two queens – Elizabeth I of England and Mary Queen of Scots – in a world of men. Schiller imagines a meeting between them that never took place and unpicks its fearsome consequences. Why does it do such damage to them both? How does the powerless Mary maintain her hold over the imperious Elizabeth? Who suffers most in the end and what is that suffering really worth?
Next week: Turgenev’s Fathers and Sons (1862)

Neste episódio nos transportamos para a Belo Horizonte dos anos 1960, pelas mãos do editor-sênior da Quatro Cinco Um, Humberto Werneck. Ele conversa com os escritores Silviano Santiago e Ivan Angelo, que estrearam juntos em livro, em 1961, com "Duas faces". Seis décadas depois, os dois desatinados rapazes lançaram um romance ("Vida ao vivo", de Ivan) e um ensaio literário ("Grafias da vida — a morte", de Silviano) que figuraram entre os melhores livros de 2023. Os três conversam com o apresentador Paulo Werneck sobre seus livros, a Geração Complemento, que marcou a sempre agitada cena literária belorizontina e outros temas.
