Resumo: | The problematization of dichotomies in a plural, heterogeneous,and contradictory world, whose socio-artistic-culturalborders are questioned and confronted, motivates the artist tolook for aesthetical regimes that may appropriately face thesequestions. Metafiction, as an intentionally auto-referential andauto-reflexive aesthetical phenomenon, is adequate to cope withthe requirements of contemporary art. Associated with parody,metafiction produces an artistic form that asks for a sophisticatedreading and also demands new critical and theoretical approachesthat could deal with such complexity. For the presentanalyses, we select the scene of the fountain in Ian McEwan’snovel Atonement and its correspondent in the film adaptation,by the director Joe Wright. With the objective of reflecting aboutthe dis-placed site and sight of the character-writer Briony Tallisand her consequent effort to perform her auto-justification, weinvestigate the elaboration of metafictional narratives in the selectedmaterial and we notice that the conflict between ethicsand aesthetics results in the configuration of the other’s space. |

Dis-placed sites/sights and the configuration of otherness´ space in Ian Mcewan´s Atonement and in Joe Wright´s film adaptationLugares/olhares des-locados e a configuração do espaço do outro em Atonement, de Ian Mcewan e na adaptação fílmica, de Joe WrightThe problematization of dichotomies in a plural, heterogeneous,and contradictory world, whose socio-artistic-culturalborders are questioned and confronted, motivates the artist tolook for aesthetical regimes that may appropriately face thesequestions.

A problematização de categorias dicotômicas num mundo plural, heterogêneo e contraditório, cujas fronteiras sócio-artística-culturais são questionadas e confrontadas, impulsiona o artista a olhar para regimes estéticos que apropriadamente busquem o enfrentamento destas questões. A metaficção, como um fenômeno estético, intencionalmente autorreferencial e autorreflexivo, se adéqua às exigências da arte contemporânea. Associada à paródia, a metaficção produz uma forma artística de leitura sofisticada e também impõe um novo olhar crítico-teórico para alcançar esta complexidade. Neste trabalho, elegemos como recorte de análise a cena da fonte no romance Atonement, de Ian McEwan e na sua adaptação fílmica homônima, do diretor Joe Wright. Com o objetivo de refletir sobre o lugar e o olhar des-locado da personagem-escritora Briony Tallis e sua consequente jornada em busca de uma auto-justificação, investigamos a elaboração das narrativas metaficcionais nos recortes literário e fílmico e observamos que o conflito entre ética e estética resulta na configuração do espaço do outro.UFSC2013-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa bibliográfica e de filmesapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/2175-8026.2013n65p14710.5007/2175-8026.2013n65p147Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; No. 65 (2013): Dis-Placed Sights/Sites: Contemporary Perspectives on Film, Media and Literature; 147-184Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; n. 65 (2013): Dis-Placed Sights/Sites: Contemporary Perspectives on Film, Media and Literature; 147-1842175-80260101-4846reponame:Ilha do Desterroinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/2175-8026.2013n65p147/26010Copyright (c) 2013 Lucia Fatima Fernandes Nobreinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNobre, Lucia Fatima Fernandes2018-12-21T08:50:47Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/30221Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterroPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/oaiilha@cce.ufsc.br||corseuil@cce.ufsc.br||ilhadodesterro@gmail.com2175-80260101-4846opendoar:2018-12-21T08:50:47Ilha do Desterro - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
