| Summary: | This paper analyses the process of building an erotic romantic love imaginary, based on Rita Lee songs. With the purpose of understanding the process of construction of an imaginary, this research investigates songwriter’s dialogues with local and international cultures and the semiosis of songs. The analysis uses the concept of imaginary, developed by Gilbert Durand, the idea of urban tribes, developed by Michel Maffesoli, and the Roland Barthes textual analysis methodology. The conclusion shows the archetype of a libertarian female protagonist, highly eroticized, as a central element in the trajectory that comes from songwriter’s cultural dialogues to symbolic elements present in the songs imaginary. |
