Resumo: | The aim of this paper is to analyze expressionist poems whose authors offer lyrical accounts of their experiences as soldiers on the battlefront. Even before the First World War outbreak, it already prefigured as some social catastrophe that was subsequently unveiled in all its virulence. Young people who experienced the “empire of the flames” and the “fiery labyrinths of battle” (Ernst Jünger) found in poetry an appropriate way to verbalize their sensory perceptions under precarious conditions and constant death threat on the battlefront. The euphoria that prevailed at the war outbreak among the expressionists, and signaled the possibility of social transformation was soon dispelled, as the so-called “material battle” was revealed in all its bitterness and horror. War, hatred, misery, chaos, destruction, madness, horror, violence, and death could be represented profoundly by means of the expressionist aesthetics. |

Mesmo antes da eclosão da guerra, esta já se prefigurava como uma catástrofe social que, posteriormente, se revelaria em toda a sua virulência. Jovens que vivenciaram o “reino das chamas” e os “labirintos fumegantes da batalha” (Ernst Jünger) encontraram na lírica uma forma apropriada para expressar suas percepções sensoriais sob condições precárias e constante perigo de morte no front. Imagens apocalípticas não eram incomuns. A euforia que predominava também entre os expressionistas com a eclosão da “Grande Guerra” e com a possibilidade de uma transformação social logo se dissipou, à medida que a chamada “guerra de material” revelou-se em toda a sua virulência e horror. Guerra, ódio, miséria, caos, destruição, loucura, violência e morte puderam ser representadas de modo pungente pela estética do Expressionismo.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2016-12-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/2517110.5902/1679849X25171Literatura e Autoritarismo; n. 17 (2016): Dossiê "Literatura e Guerra: o impacto da Primeira Guerra Mundial na produção cultural"1679-849X1679-849Xreponame:Literatura e Autoritarismoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/25171/14526Copyright (c) 2016 Literatura e Autoritarismoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCornelsen, Élcio Loureiro2023-05-24T02:55:33Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/25171Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/indexPUBhttp://cascavel.ufsm.br/revistas/ojs-2.2.2/index.php/LA/oaigla@mail.ufsm.br||jlourique@pq.cnpq.br1679-849X1679-849Xopendoar:2023-05-24T02:55:33Literatura e Autoritarismo - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false |
