Resumo: This article proposes a reflection on irony in José Saramago's works, not only as a rhetorical strategy, but mainly as a romantic irony. Since Baltasar and Blimunda, Saramago has woven a link between the intrusions of his narrators and a subliminal project of education of the gaze that came to be revealed explicitly through the epigraph of Blindness. By ostensibly using the ironic discourse that David Muecke (1995) categorizes as instances of situational and verbal irony, Saramago points to “ethical values ​​[that] are born ingrained in aesthetic value” (GRAÇA apud JAMES, 1995, p.11); values ​​that continue to question the past and the present. Thus, the article proposes the analysis of the ironic ethos that manifests itself in Saramago's novels as the presentification of the author's worldview.

Desde Memorial do Convento, Saramago teceu um elo entre as intrusões dos seus narradores e um projeto subliminar de educação do olhar que veio a se revelar explicitamente por meio da epígrafe de Ensaio sobre a cegueira. Ao usar ostensivamente o discurso irônico que David Muecke (1995) categoriza como instâncias de ironia situacional e ironia verbal, Saramago aponta para “valores éticos [que] nascem entranhados no valor estético” (GRAÇA apud JAMES, 1995, p.11); valores que continuam a interpelar o passado e o presente.  Assim, o artigo propõe a análise do ethos irônico que se manifesta nos romances de Saramago como presentificação da mundividência do autor.ANPOLL2023-02-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/180410.18309/ranpoll.v53i3.1804Revista da Anpoll; Vol. 53 No. 3 (2022): Estudo Literários: José Saramago 100 anos; 54-64Revista da Anpoll; v. 53 n. 3 (2022): Estudo Literários: José Saramago 100 anos; 54-641982-78301414-756410.18309/ranpoll.v53i3reponame:Revista da ANPOLL (Online)instname:Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)instacron:ANPOLLporhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/1804/1280Copyright (c) 2023 Revista da Anpollhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCarreira, Shirley de Souza Gomes2023-03-03T15:05:49Zoai:ojs.revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br:article/1804Revistahttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/indexONGhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/oairevistadaanpoll@gmail.com1982-78301414-7564opendoar:2023-03-03T15:05:49Revista da ANPOLL (Online) - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)false
