Resumo: In this paper, we will approach Paul Valéry’s (1871-1945) “Cantate” from the point of view of a study of its main character, Narcissus himself. After a first moment where we will study the structure of the verses of the play as well as its search for a balanced composition, we will then turn to the relationship between Narcissus and the Nymphs and, finally, to his opposition to the gods who condemn him for his love without measure. We will show how Narcissus in the “Cantate” manifests one of Valéry’s more recurrent subjects (the search of purity in its opposition to nature), a preoccupation that appears in other moments of his work as well.

Después de un primer momento de análisis formal, donde trataremos de la constitución sonora del verso e de la preocupación con el equilibrio en la composición del texto, consideraremos, en un según momento, la relación del protagonista con las Ninfas e su oposición a los dioses que lo condenan por su amor desmesurado. Mostraremos, entonces, como la figura de Narciso en la “Cantate” manifiesta uno de los temas caros a Valéry (aquello de la búsqueda de la pureza en su oposición a la naturaleza), una preocupación que surge en otros momentos de su obra.Neste trabalho, abordaremos a “Cantate du Narcisse”, de Paul Valéry (1871-1945), a partir de um estudo de seu protagonista, Narciso.
