A TENSIVIDADE NA POÉTICA DE CLARICE LISPECTOR

Abstract

The objects of the research are the stories “Amor’, “Uma galinha”, “Feliz Aniversário” and “Os laços de família”, in Laços de família (2009); “Felicidade clandestina”, “Miopia progressiva”, in Felicidade clandestina (1998), both by Clarice Lispector, and the paintings O terapeuta (1941) and A invenção da vida (1928), by René Magritte. The elements of tenseness and extensiveness of literary and pictorial works are part of the resources used by artists. The circular character of events establishes the meanings of the plurality of tensions in each art. The stylistic traits of the writer and the painter point to ecstasy with varying points of intensity and extensiveness. The feelings of the characters reveal the eagerness to live in function of the other that undergoes a metamorphosis of the being in search of their happiness. The general objective is to analyze the encounter that the characters have with themselves, discovering themselves to live their happiness intensely. Specific objectives correlate the plural languages of the literary and pictorial arts. Theorists who give support to the study are Julio Cortázar (1974); Mikhail Bakhtin (2011); Roland Barthes (1972; 2004); Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guatarri (1997); Martin Heidegger 1989); A. J. Greimas (1972; 1996); J. P. Sartre (1977); Claude Zilberberg (2006; 2007; 2011), among others. The poetics of tensivity in language reveals the transformation of signs, the plurality of meanings manifested in each line, point and color, forming isotopias of the process of construction of art.
