Resumo: | By closing The Waves (1931) with Bernard’s extended monologue after presenting a narrative absolutely fragmented by the six voices that pass along with her symbolic day, Virginia Woolf opens us to a new possibility of reading her masterpiece: that of understanding her entire narrative as sustained by its last section and its central character. This essay proposes a backwards reading of Woolf's novel, from the time of the instant (present) to recollected time (past), a reading in accordance with Bernard as the binding thread of her narrative. To do this, we draw a parallel with what Woolf coined as her philosophy in Moments of Being (1941, 1971), her theory about moments of being and of non-being, and the time of the instant, which compresses both past and future into images according to St Augustine in his Confessions. Bernard seems to present us with the waves that come to us from ourselves, our memories and desires, in a movement of inevitable break that begets the human. |

O presente ensaio faz uma leitura de trás para frente do romance de Woolf, do momento do instante (presente) ao momento rememorado (passado), uma leitura em consonância com Bernard enquanto fio condutor da narrativa. Para fazer isso, traçamos um diálogo com o que Woolf cunhou como sua filosofia em Moments of Being (1971), sua teoria sobre os momentos de ser (being) e os de não-ser (non-being), e o tempo do instante que comprime o passado e o futuro em imagens segundo Santo Agostinho em suas Confissões. Bernard parece nos apresentar as ondas que nos vem de nós mesmos, nossas memórias e desejos, num movimento de inevitável quebra que gera o humano.Universidade Federal Fluminense2015-12-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/3335910.22409/gragoata.v20i39.33359Gragoatá; Vol. 20 No. 39 (2015): Literature StudiesGragoatá; v. 20 n. 39 (2015): Estudos de Literatura2358-41141413-907310.22409/gragoata.v20i39reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33359/19346Copyright (c) 2015 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPinho, Davi2019-08-23T11:06:19Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/33359Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2019-08-23T11:06:19Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false |
