She will speak at 7 pm on Wednesday, August 22 in the auditorium of bookstore Martins Fontes on Avenida Paulista, 509, 2<sup>nd<\/sup> floor, S\u00e3o Paulo. The event is held by Lente Cultural with support from the <strong>Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong>, and registrations are open.<\/p>\n<p>According to Queiroz, the lecture will deal with how the Brazilian poet\u2019s bibliography evolved over time, evincing the dialogue between Brazilian literary historiography and the imaginary of the Middle East. \u201cI will center on Haddad\u2019s biographic profile in connection with Brazilian literature at that point in time, showcasing his most ambivalent and paradoxical books from each period,\u201d she explained. She also said the poet was deemed controversial, in that although his poems featured regular verses, their subjects were subversive for the time, including erotic and political content.<\/p>\n<p>Haddad used to write in Portuguese. A physician by training, he was a French, English and Arabic translator. He was responsible for the first Portuguese translation of Charles-Pierre Baudelaire\u2019s Flowers of Evil in the 1950s. according to Queiroz, Haddad\u2019s literary career spanned over 50 years, and he was regarded as a \u2018minor\u2019 or \u2018unclassifiable\u2019 poet, since his work did not fit any literary genre. \u201cHis output was varied and heterodoxic, dealing with the imaginary of the Middle East, aspects of Orientalism, politically- and socially-engaged poetry, religiosity and even surrealistic poems,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The lecture is intended for anyone interested in Arab culture, migration, history, poetry or biographies, as well as researchers working with literary history, modernism, the 1945 generation, or controversial figures from Brazilian literature.<\/p>\n<p>The price of admission is BRL 45.
