Resumo: Circumscribing as corpus The picture of Dorian Gray (1891), the only novel by Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), this essay finds its originality in the texture of metaphor and in the play of death. Will metaphor be the death of the real? Will the real be the death of metaphor? With this postulate, in form of chiasmus, we analyze the texture of the Wildean novel, in which the change of symbolic places between the model and the picture causes an aesthetic and ethic tension. Finally, Art will remain, metaphor of a real, dead, but always susceptible to artistic transfiguration.

Será a metáfora a morte do real? Será o real a morte da metáfora? Com esse postulado, em forma de quiasmo, analisa-se a tessitura do romance wildeano, em que a troca de lugares simbólicos entre o modelo e a pintura provoca uma tensão estética e ética. Ao fim e ao cabo, ficará a Arte, metáfora de um real, morto, mas sempre passível de transfiguração artística.Universidade Federal Fluminense2009-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33130Gragoatá; Vol. 14 No. 26 (2009): Metaphor - the everyday life and the inauguralGragoatá; v. 14 n. 26 (2009): Metáfora – o cotidiano e o inaugural2358-41141413-9073reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33130/19117Copyright (c) 2019 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMucci, Latuf Isaias2020-08-18T23:36:32Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/33130Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2020-08-18T23:36:32Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false
