description The present article proposes to discuss a set of news about the Biafra War (1967-1970) on the pages of Veja magazine. Our goal is to examine the political and rhetorical meanings of the periodical about one of the greatest human tragedies of the 20th century occurred insouthwest of Nigeria. The conflict has emancipated, by the Igbo people, the Republic of Biafra, whose ephemeral existence drenched the international images community that registered the misery and the ailments caused by the war. In Brazil, Biafra was present in weekly magazines and daily newspapers, from the modernization process of the press, who acted to inform national and international events through the publication of immediate news and in the formulation and intermediation of projects public and governmental interests. For that text, as documentary sources, the authors used the numbers published by Veja magazine between 1968 and 1970, context of war events. The collection of this journal is available free of charge on the magazine’s website (www.veja.abril.com.br/acervo).The images and narratives published in the journal point to a context of hunger, violence and humanitarian debates.

O presente artigo propõe discutir um conjunto de notícias sobre a Guerra de Biafra (1967-1970) presentes nas páginas da revista Veja. Nosso objetivo cunha-se em examinar os sentidos políticos e retóricos do periódico sobre uma das maiores tragédias humanas do século XX ocorrida no sudoeste do território da Nigéria. O conflito emancipou, pelo povo igbo, a República do Biafra, cuja existência efêmera encharcou a comunidade internacional de imagens que registravam a miséria e as mazelas provocadas pela guerra. No Brasil, Biafra fez-se presente em revistas semanais e jornais diários, oriundos do processo de modernização da imprensa, que atuaram informando os acontecimentos nacionais e internacionais por meio da publicação de notícias imediatas e na formulação e intermediação de projetos de interesses públicos e governamentais. Para esse texto, enquanto fontes documentais, as autoras utilizaram os números publicados pela Revista Veja entre 1968 e 1970, contexto de acontecimentos da guerra. O acervo desse periódico encontra-se disponível gratuitamente no site da própria revista (www.veja.abril.com.br/acervo). As imagens e as narrativas veiculadas no periódico apontam um contexto de fome, violência e debates humanitários. 2021-10-15 2022-03-18T19:28:05Z 2022-03-18T19:28:05Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/cadernos/article/view/13959 10.47284/2359-2419.2021.30.345365 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/65502 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/cadernos/article/view/13959/11501 Copyright (c) 2021 CC-BY https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 application/pdf Faculdade de Ciências e Letras - Unesp - Araraquara.
