Jornalismo de memória e narrativas de testemunho: uma análise da obra Todo dia a mesma noite, de Daniela Arbex

Abstract

This undergraduate thesis analyzes the construction of collective memory about the Kiss Nightclub tragedy through Daniela Arbex's book Todo dia a mesma noite, understanding memory journalism as a fundamental practice for recovering, preserving, and interpreting traumatic events. The study examines how the author organizes testimonies from survivors, family members, and healthcare professionals, and how she uses elements of trauma narrative to prevent the events from being forgotten and to contribute to the social pursuit of justice. Methodologically, the study applies narrative analysis inspired by Paul Ricoeur (2007), articulated with theoretical contributions from Maurice Halbwachs (2006), Pierre Nora (1993), Michael Pollak (1992), Ana Lúcia Enne (2004), and Márcio Seligmann-Silva (2003; 2005), allowing an understanding of how individual experiences of pain and loss are transformed into shared social memory. The study concludes that Arbex?s work functions as an important historical, ethical, and political record in preserving the public memory of the Kiss Nightclub tragedy. [resumo fornecido pelo autor]
