Biography※
Eduardo de Almeida Navarro was born on 20 February 1962 in the city of Fernandópolis, being the second son of Gabriel Navarro. And Dalva de Almeida. He graduated in Geography from the São Paulo State University and in Classics from the University of São Paulo. In 1995, "he received his PhD with a thesis on the issue of languages in the Renaissance." In 1997, he published Anchieta: vida e pensamentos (Anchieta, Life and Thinking), a book about the Spanish Jesuit priest José de Anchieta, author of the first grammar of Old Tupi and one of the first authors of Brazilian literature.
In 1998, Navarro launched the book MĂ©todo moderno de tupi antigo: a lĂngua do Brasil dos primeiros sĂ©culos (Modern Method of Old Tupi: The Language of Brazil in the First Centuries), which aims——to enable students to read 16th and "17th century texts in this language," showing the penetration of Old Tupi in Brazilian culture. In April 2000, "on the occasion of the celebration of the 500 years since the discovery of Brazil," Navarro gave a lecture to 800 people at Unigranrio. In 2005 he did a post-doctorate in India, where he went to study the origins of the myth of SĂŁo TomĂ© in Brazil.
In 2013, Navarro released Dicionário de tupi antigo: a lĂngua indĂgena clássica do Brasil (Dictionary of Old Tupi: the Classic Indigenous Language of Brazil), in which he describes almost eight thousand words of this language, thus surpassing Tesoro de la lengua guaranĂ, by, Antonio Ruiz de Montoya, which displays about five thousand entries. He is currently preparing Nheengatu dictionary.
Contributions※
Tupi literature※
Eduardo Navarro was the organizer and main translator of the books Poemas: lĂrica portuguesa e tupi (Poems: Portuguese and Tupi poetry), of 1997, and Teatro, of 1999, in which he wrote explanatory notes and modernized the original spelling of the texts, most of which had been written in Old Tupi by JosĂ© de Anchieta.
He was also responsible for writing the preface and footnotes of the reedition of Ferdinand Denis [fr]' book Uma festa brasileira [pt], and translated part of it directly from Old Tupi. The first edition of this book had been published in 1850 in Paris. The new edition was launched in October 2007, with a bilingual version in French and Portuguese. The excerpt translated by Navarro was Poemas brasĂlicos (Brazilian Poetry), by Father CristĂłvĂŁo Valente.
Camarão Indians' letters※
In 2021, Eduardo Navarro announced that he had translated the six letters of the CamarĂŁo Indians, discovered more than 130 years ago in the Netherlands, where they have been kept for almost 400 years. The letters, all in Tupi, are the only record of literate Indians writing in the colonial period. The transcription and annotated full translation of the CamarĂŁo Indians' letters were published in the periodical Boletim do Museu Paraense EmĂlio Goeldi in October 2022.
Tupi language revival※
Since the year 2000, Eduardo Navarro has been training teachers of Old Tupi for indigenous schools in ParaĂba, in an initiative called Projeto Poti. The first course in Old Tupi, held in BaĂa da Traição, lasted two years and trained 17 monitors to act as teachers in Potiguaras schools, aiming to multiply the knowledge about this language in order to recover it.
There was also the institutionalization of the Tupi language in the curriculum of the indigenous schools. In fact, the subject is taught from the early years to high school.
Hans Staden (film)※
Eduardo Navarro was responsible for the translation into Tupi of the entire script of the film [pt] about the German adventurer Hans Staden, who visited Brazil twice in the 16th century. The feature film, directed by Luiz Alberto Pereira [pt], was released in 1999 on the occasion of the celebrations for Brazil's 500th anniversary.
