Abstract

Artistic expressions build and are built by social and historical contexts,
contributing to a broad understanding of realities. This study, reflecting on
the meanings of childhood and child in Chico Buarque’s songs, performed:
bibliographic research on art and social reality, childhood and being a child,
listening, and re-listening to a set of this artist’s songs from the 1960s to
2000s. We submitted the obtained data to thematic content analysis, where
the following categories emerged: plays, childhood characteristics, care and
carelessness, childhoods, and moments of life. In this study, we display and
discuss the category “moments of life”. Thus, we realize that being a child
turns into hope, being adults and elders do not. The adult faces work and
care; the elderly, hopelessness, sadness and fatigue.
