Resumo: | This essay raises a hypothetical reading of the poetic works of Torquato Neto (1944-1972) based on the death drive notion, which is in his prose and song lyrics. We start from the premise that the author from Piauí uses in his works the technique of dislocating as a mirror to the category of “space-in-between” created by Silviano Santiago (which we will explore through our argumentation). In the Tropicalist movement he integrated with Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Capinam and others, the space of betweenness was the one Torquato biogra- phically occupied. Torquato became fixated by the image of vampires, which will read as an annunciation of a fetish of death (much to the liking of the Brazilian romantics of the 19 th century), but also as the “space-in-between” of his sexual orientation – in addition to the clear association to this semi-dead character to the central theme of the essay: death itself. The argument find a dialogue with the poem “Deus Verme”, by Au- gusto dos Anjos (1884-1914), the poet from Paraíba. When addressing the image of transforming and eating the dead body, the poem glorifies the decomposing, like a suicidal would praise the possibility of reaching his own end – as is the case with Torquato Neto. |

Parte-se da premissa de que o autor piauiense faz uso do desencaixe em seus textos como espelho do entrelugar (conceito de Silviano Santiago que exploraremos ao longo da argumentação) que ocupa biograficamente no movimento Tropicalista de que participou com Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Capinam e outros. A fixação de Torquato pela imagem de vampiros também será abordada como anunciação não apenas da morte fetichizante (ao gosto dos românticos do século XIX), mas também como o entrelugar de sua orientação sexual – além da evidente associação do morto-vivo com o tema central do ensaio: a morte. A condução do argumento será feita em diálogo com o poema “Deus Verme”, do poeta paraibano Augusto dos Anjos (1884-1914). Ao abordar a imagem do transformismo e do devorar o corpo morto, o poema compõe sua exaltação à decomposição, feito um suicida que exalta a pró- pria possibilidade do fim – como é o caso de Torquato Neto.Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro2023-02-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartigo de literaturaartigos de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/6796810.12957/matraga.2023.67968Matraga - Revista do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras da UERJ; v. 30 n. 58 (2023): Miscelânea; 149-162MATRAGA - Journal published by the Graduate Program in Letters at Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ); Vol. 30 No. 58 (2023): Miscelaneous; 149-1622446-69051414-7165reponame:Matraga (Online)instname:Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)instacron:UERJporhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/67968/45219Ramos, Ramoninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-05-12T13:52:41Zoai:ojs.www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br:article/67968Revistahttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matragaPUBhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matraga/oai||letrasmatraga@uerj.br2446-69051414-7165opendoar:2023-05-12T13:52:41Matraga (Online) - Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)false |
