Resumo: | Beginning with a discussion of the growing interest that forms of writing about the self has aroused among both critics and readers, this article focuses on the theoretical aspects that distinguish the practice of Irish writer W.B. Yeats in two types of writings about the self: the autobiography proper and the journal. My analysis draws from theoretical sources of diverse national contexts to bring a panorama of the main critical discussions of this important Anglophone author to the Brazilian public. Yeats figures as an exemplary subject for exploring how the subject-writer is constituted, the (im)possibilities of memory, and their representation in the writerly space, particularly given the wealth of material he left in these genres. As an exemplum, Yeats is a particularly apt subject due to the tradition of genetic and biographical studies that have always characterized Yeatsian criticism, as well his own preoccupation with these very questions in all the genres of his extensive oeuvre. |

B. Yeats em dois gêneros de escrita auto/biográfica: a autobiografia propriamente dita e o diário. Propõe-se análise que bebe de fontes teóricas de diversos contextos nacionais para atualizar o público brasileiro acerca das discussões que compõem a fortuna crítica deste importante autor das literaturas anglófonas. Yeats se apresenta como um sujeito exemplar para investigar-se a constituição do sujeito-escritor, as (im)possibilidades da memória e sua representação no espaço da escrita, em função da riqueza de seu acervo, da tradição dos estudos genéticos e biográficos que sempre caracterizaram a crítica yeatsiana e por sua própria preocupação com essas questões, presente em todos os gêneros de sua extensa obra.ANPOLL2017-02-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/105810.18309/anp.v1i43.1058Revista da Anpoll; Vol. 1 No. 43 (2017): Estudos Literários; 91-105Revista da Anpoll; v. 1 n. 43 (2017): Estudos Literários; 91-1051982-78301414-7564reponame: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/1058/912Copyright (c) 2018 Maria Rita Drumond Vianainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessViana, Maria Rita Drumond2020-04-09T18:05:22Zoai:ojs.revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br:article/1058Revistahttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/indexONGhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/oairevistadaanpoll@gmail.com1982-78301414-7564opendoar:2023-01-13T09:48:42.256284Revista da ANPOLL (Online) - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)false |
