Description
Summary:For many years, Earth underwent several Martian invasions. Such attacks, devastating and terrific, had occurred in electronic books, movies, magazines, comics, games and on the radio. However, many of the represented Martian invasions around of the world are deeply connected, or rather, they have been inspired on The War of the Worlds, written by H.G. Wells and published in England in 1898. On the basis of some representations exhibited in Portugal and Brazil, we shall discuss the origins and the transcodings of a fiction workmanship and inquire how we can identify the rewriting and their association of ideas within different contexts of the 20th century with regard to popular imaginary.<br>Por muitos anos, o planeta Terra sofreu diversas invas&amp;otilde;es marcianas. Tais ataques, por vezes devastadores e aterrorizantes, ocorreram nos livros, filmes, revistas, hist&amp;oacute;rias em quadrinhos, jogos eletr&amp;ocirc;nicos e no r&amp;aacute;dio. Todavia, muitas das invas&amp;otilde;es marcianas representadas ao redor do mundo guardam entre si uma estreita liga&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o: foram inspiradas em A Guerra dos Mundos, escrito por H.G. Wells e publicado na Inglaterra em 1898. Com base em algumas representa&amp;ccedil;&amp;otilde;es encenadas em Portugal e no Brasil, pretendemos discutir as origens e transcodifica&amp;ccedil;&amp;otilde;es de uma obra de fic&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o e problematizar como, atrav&amp;eacute;s do imagin&amp;aacute;rio popular, podemos identificar a reelabora&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o e associa&amp;ccedil;&amp;atilde;o de id&amp;eacute;ias ligadas a diferentes contextos do s&amp;eacute;culo XX.
