Resumo: | This paper reads Bertolt Brecht’s play The Exception and the Rule using the concept of “typical”, as purported by Slovene philosopher Slavoj Žižek. It is an interpretative bibliographical study based on lacanianism, a recent philosophical current that links Jacques Lacan’s psychoanalysis to Karl Marx’s historical materialism. The new reading through this perspective allows us to understand the functioning of the typification process, since in a very didactic way, Brecht brings into play the contradictions inherent in the power relations. Although the žižekian concept is after the creation of The exception and the rule it is possible to see the typification process in the play, and this feature works as a constitutive element for the distancing effect, the key concept of brechtian dramaturgy. Acerbic critic of the bourgeois drama, Brecht demanded the abandonment of interpersonal relation’s superficial mimesis, which focused exclusively the individual, in order to encompass the collectivity, power’s structures and processes and their almost all-powerful determining role over human behaviors. |

Trata-se de um estudo bibliográfico de cunho interpretativo, baseado no materialismo lacaniano, uma corrente filosófica recente que atrela a psicanálise de Jacques Lacan ao materialismo histórico de Karl Marx. A releitura por tal viés permite perceber o funcionamento do processo de tipificação, pois, de forma muito didática, Brecht põe em cena as contradições inerentes às relações de poder. Embora o conceito žižekiano seja posterior à criação de A exceção e a regra, é possível perceber o processo de tipificação na peça, e esse recurso funciona como elemento constitutivo do efeito de estranhamento (ou distanciamento), o conceito chave do teatro brechtiano. Crítico contundente do drama burguês, Brecht clamava a necessidade de abandonar a mimese superficial das relações interpessoais, que focavam exclusivamente o indivíduo, para abraçar a coletividade, as estruturas e processo de poder e seu papel praticamente determinante na matriz de comportamentos humanos.Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro2022-03-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartigo de literaturaartigos de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/6126210.12957/matraga.2022.61262Matraga - Revista do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras da UERJ; v. 29 n. 55 (2022): Miscelânea; 143-154MATRAGA - Journal published by the Graduate Program in Letters at Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ); Vol. 29 No. 55 (2022): Miscelaneous; 143-1542446-69051414-7165reponame:Matraga (Online)instname:Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)instacron:UERJporhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/61262/41607Almeida, Marcia GeraldaSilva, Marisa Corrêainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-05-27T10:06:42Zoai:ojs.www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br:article/61262Revistahttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matragaPUBhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matraga/oai||letrasmatraga@uerj.br2446-69051414-7165opendoar:2022-05-27T10:06:42Matraga (Online) - Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)false |
