Resumo: In Fräulein Else (Miss Else), published in 1924, stream of thought and music composition intertwine, creating atmospheres that simultaneously express the historical turbulence of the Belle Époque Vienna and tumultuous affects that escape from it. This work written by the physician Arthur Schnitzler (whose father was Freud’s physician) consists of the inner monologue of a nineteen-year-old Viennese girl from a wealthy family on the brink of ruin. The young Else finds herself in a critical dilemma, as she needs to obtain a loan at any cost to save her indebted father. This is what she will attempt with a wealthy Sexagenarian, an art dealer, who promises to lend her the money under one condition: to see her naked. The novella is moved by affects such as eroticism, vital force, insurgent and suicidal impulses, love for her father, indignation, contempt, and hate. At the climax of the plot, fragments of Schumann’s Carnival blend with the text, when Else fulfills and breaks her promise, undressing herself for the hotel guests and then committing suicide with an overdose of Veronal, a drug commonly used at that time to treat insomnia and nervous excitability. The atmospheric climax is created by fragments of a music composition that rhythmizes Else’s final crisis, her stream of thought in the process of abolition. The outcome, death, undecidably articulates her destruction and a final flight: “Ich fliege... ich träume... ich schlafe... ich träu… träu – ich flie...”(I am flying... I am dreaming... I am sleeping... dream... dream... - fly...).

I am sleeping... dream... dream... - fly...).Em Senhorita Else (Fräulein Else), publicado em 1924, fluxo de pensamento e composição musical se arti­culam, produzindo atmosferas que, a um só tempo, manifestam turbulências históricas da Viena da época e delas escapam. Nessa novela criada pelo médico e escritor Arthur Schnitzler (cujo pai era médico de Freud), acompanha-se o monólogo interior de uma jovem vienense de dezenove anos pertencente a uma família abastada à beira da ruína. No livro, a jovem Else vê-se diante de uma situação crítica: precisa obter, a qualquer custo, um empréstimo para salvar o pai endividado. É o que irá tentar junto a um rico sexagenário, vendedor de obras de arte, que lhe promete emprestar a soma sob uma condição: vê-la nua. A novela é atravessada por turbilhões de afetos: erotismo, força vital, inclinações insurgentes, impulsos suicidas, amor pelo pai, indigna­ção, desprezo, raiva. No ápice do enredo, fragmentos da partitura do Carnaval de Schumann entrelaçam-se ao texto, no momento em que Else cumpre e descumpre sua promessa, desnudando-se diante dos hóspedes do hotel para, a seguir, suicidar-se com uma overdose de Veronal, fármaco então muito utilizado para tratar insônia e excitabilidade nervosa. O clímax atmosférico é composto a partir de fragmentos de uma escrita musical que ritmam a crise final de Else, seu fluxo de consciência em processo de abolição. O desfecho, a morte, articula de modo indecidível sua destruição e um voo final: “Ich fliege... ich träume... ich schlafe... ich träu... träu – ich flie...”(Estou voando... estou sonhando... estou dormindo... son... son... - voan...”).Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro2024-01-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartigo de literaturaartigos de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/7717110.12957/matraga.2024.77171Matraga - Revista do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras da UERJ; v. 31 n. 61 (2024): Miscelânea; 154-165MATRAGA - Journal published by the Graduate Program in Letters at Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ); Vol. 31 No. 61 (2024): Miscelânea; 154-1652446-69051414-7165reponame:Matraga (Online)instname:Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)instacron:UERJporhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/77171/49127https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFranco Ferraz, Maria Cristina2024-01-28T03:56:27Zoai:ojs.www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br:article/77171Revistahttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matragaPUBhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matraga/oai||letrasmatraga@uerj.br2446-69051414-7165opendoar:2024-01-28T03:56:27Matraga (Online) - Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)false
