Chuck Berry, rock ‘n’ roll pioneer, dead at 90By Ralph Ellis, Todd Leopold and Tony Marco, CNNAccording to the text,
Updated 0212 GMT (1012 HKT) March 19, 2017(CNN)Chuck Berry, a music pioneer often called “the Father of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” died Saturday at his home outside St. Louis, his verified Facebook page said. He was 90.
A post on the St. Charles County police Facebook page said officers responded to a medical emergency at the residence around 12:40 p.m. (1:40 p.m. ET) Saturday and found an unresponsive man inside. Resuscitation efforts failed.
“The St. Charles County Police Department sadly confirms the death of Charles Edward Anderson Berry Sr., better known as legendary musician Chuck Berry.”
A musical legend
Berry wrote and recorded “Johnny B. Goode” and “Sweet Little Sixteen” -- songs every garage band and fledgling guitarist had to learn if they wanted to enter the rock ‘n’ roll fellowship.
Berry took all-night hamburger stands, brown-eyed handsome men and V-8 Fords and turned them into the stuff of American poetry. By doing so, he gave rise to followers beyond number, bar-band disciples of the electric guitar, who carried his musical message to the far corners of the Earth.
Some of his most famous followers praised him on social media.
Bruce Springsteen tweeted: “Chuck Berry was rock’s greatest practitioner, guitarist, and the greatest pure rock ‘n’ roll writer who ever lived.”
Chuck Berry was rock’s greatest practitioner, guitarist, and the greatest pure rock ‘n’ roll writer who ever lived.
The Rolling Stones posted on their website: “The Rolling Stones are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Chuck Berry. He was a true pioneer of rock ‘n’ roll and a massive influence on us. Chuck was not only a brilliant guitarist, singer and performer, but most importantly, he was a master craftsman as a songwriter. His songs will live forever. “
But it was perhaps John Lennon -- who died in 1980 -- who put it most succinctly. “If you tried to give rock and roll another name, you might call it ‘Chuck Berry.’”
The list of Berry’s classics is as well-known as his distinctive, chiming “Chuck Berry riff”: “Maybellene.” “Around and Around.” “Brown-Eyed Handsome Man.” “School Days.” “Memphis.” “Nadine.” “No Particular Place to Go.”
They were deceptively simple tunes, many constructed with simple chord progressions and classic verse-chorus-verse formats, but their hearts could be as big as teenage hopes on a Saturday night.
His music even went into outer space. When the two Voyager spacecrafts were launched in 1977, each was accompanied on its journey to the outer reaches of the solar system by a phonograph record that contained sounds of Earth -- including “Johnny B. Goode.”www.cnn.comF3E4B8AF-DD Inglês

17 E o sorriso que eu te levava
18 desprendeu-se e caiu de mim:
19 e só talvez ele ainda viva
20 dentro destas águas sem fim.Cecília Meireles, “Canção”A partir do poema “Canção”, considere as seguintes afirmações:
I. Os versos Eu te esperei todos os séculos (verso 05) e e morri de infinitas mortes (verso 07) lançam mão da figura de linguagem conhecida como hipérbole.
II. Na última estrofe E o sorriso que eu te levava/desprendeu-se e caiu de mim:/e só talvez ele ainda viva/dentro destas águas sem fim, o eu lírico sinaliza uma superação das suas dores amorosas.
III. A referência a “estátuas”, no poema, nos faz classificar “Canção” como um poema parnasiano tardio.

SPECIAL ENVOY TO RIO
Steinz still “has hope” that he will find some of the people
responsible for the Jewish genocide during WWII still living.
The Third Reich fell apart 71 years ago, leading Nazis, low to top ranking, to escape to Latin America in mass. That stampede has been compared to the escape of rodents from a sinking ship -the “rat routes”.
Delegate Uwe Steinz, 58, still “has hope” that he will find some of the people responsible for the Jewish genocide during World War II still living.
After fighting organized crime and prostitution in his country, the German lives off “hunting Nazis”-and believes there is a fistful of them in Brazil.
Since 2009, as an employee of the Central Office of the State Justice Administrations for the Investigation of National Socialist Crimes, he has already made 14 trips to the National Archive in Rio. Among five million immigrant registration records, Steinz is searching for the registrations for Germans born between 1916 and 1931.
The information of those who fit the profile is sent to the headquarters in Germany, which verifies if the person served the Third Reich. He didn’t come to hunt the “big fish” of the SS, the elite squad of Nazis -older, they are probably no longer with us. His target is the “lower clergy”, such as camp guards and accountants.
The most famous one of them, Joseph Mengele, the “Angel of Death”, was a doctor in Auschwitz responsible for prisoner triage (forced labor or gas chamber). He died at age 67, in 1979, when he drowned in Bertioga (on the coast of São Paulo), possibly a victim of cardiac arrest. He was never tried.
There are more accounts of older Nazis in Brazil, like Herbert Cukurs (who rented paddleboats in Niterói) and Franz Stangl, employed at a Volkswagen factory in ABC Paulista.
Arrested in 1967, Stangl was extradited and was targeted for the death of 900 thousand people. “My conscience is at peace”, he said at the time.www1.folha.uol.com.br67E63E86-DD Inglês
