Resumo: | Antonio Gramsci in his Prison Notebooks constructs an ‘anti-Crocean’ reading of Dante Alighieri’s Inferno X. It is an interpretation based on the conception of the textual lacuna – manifested by Dante’s silence in front of Cavalcante de’ Cavalcanti, one of the protagonists of Dante’s canto – as a strategy of cultural and, at the same time, political and social nature. Poetry is not reduced to ‘poetic’. Gramsci, in fact, rejects the idea of literature as a phenomen sterilely ‘superstructural’: reading Inferno X, on the contrary, means for Gramsci understanding how Dantesque poetry is neither a mimesis nor a representation, but an immanent reality: part of an organic totality, in which each element – a cultural element as a literary work, for example – constitutes an articulation of the whole. This study intends to indicate in the Gramscian interpretation of Canto X an attempt to find within textual lacunas not the manifestation – as Benedetto Croce (1921) believed – of the ineffable and prelogical dimension of intuition, but the presuppositions for an active and creative role of the reader: a rational, ideological articulation of the connection between the cultural, political and economic level of the society understood as a whole. |

Antonio Gramsci constrói nos Cadernos do cárcere uma leitura ‘anticroceana’ do Canto X do Inferno de Dante Alighieri. É uma interpretação baseada na concepção da lacuna textual – manifestada pelo silêncio de Dante frente a Cavalcante de’ Cavalcanti, um dos protagonistas do canto dantesco – como uma estratégia de natureza cultural e, ao mesmo tempo, de valor tanto político quanto social; ou seja, a poesia não é reduzida ao ‘poético’. Gramsci, de fato, recusa a visão da literatura como algo esterilmente ‘superestrutural’. Ler o Canto X, ao contrário, significa entender a poesia dantesca não como uma mimese ou uma representação, mas como a própria realidade imanente: parte de uma totalidade orgânica, na qual cada elemento – e, portanto, um elemento cultural como uma obra literária – constitui uma articulação do conjunto. O presente estudo pretende indicar, no tipo de exegese gramsciana do Canto X, uma tentativa de encontrar nas lacunas textuais não a manifestação, como acreditava Benedetto Croce (1921), da dimensão inefável e pré-lógica da intuição, mas os pressupostos para que o leitor exerça um papel ativo e criativo: racional, de articulação ideológica e de conexão entre o nível cultural, político e econômico da sociedade entendida como um todo.
