Resumo: | Towards the end of the sixteenth century, William Shakespeare wrote, in addition to other dramas, three comedies, which explore the inebriating and complicated experience of being in love - Much ado about nothing (1598), As you like it (1599-1600) e Twelfth Night (1601). In the three texts, female characters play leading roles, and become the driving force of the plot, overcoming challenges. In 2006, Editora Objetiva published the novel A décima segunda noite, by the writer, cartoonist, translator, screen play writer, and dramatist Luís Fernando Verissimo (1936-), a humorous rewriting of the Shakespearean comedy, Twelfth Nightor What you Will. The new text confirms the relevance of the female characters of the English comedy, and allows the reader to enjoy the mixed identities by means of gender disguising. That fifth novel by the gaucho writer is the second one in the collection ‘Devouring Shakespeare’, which intended to publish recreations of the English dramatist’s works. Here, in a movement of convergence of two of his passions – both the French capital and the English playwright’s production – Veríssimo shifts the Illyria in the Balkans, to the city of Paris in the 1970s, where the hybrid is built, and the cross roads of places truly lived in by different people coming form various social backgrounds get together by means of a feeling of group solidarity proper to the condition of the exile. Sensitively and in an intelligent manner, the writer inserts in his text a particular narrator: Henry, the parrot, who builds his narrative from the perch, where he is placed, in Ilíria, a beauty saloon owned by Orsino. |

Sensitively and in an intelligent manner, the writer inserts in his text a particular narrator: Henry, the parrot, who builds his narrative from the perch, where he is placed, in Ilíria, a beauty saloon owned by Orsino. Em fins do século XVI, William Shakespeare escreveu, além de outros textosdramáticos, três comédias que giram em torno da inebriante e complicada experiênciade se estar apaixonado – Much ado about nothing (1598), As you like it (1599-1600) e Twelfth Night (1601). Nas três, personagens femininas ocupam papel de destaque e se tornam a força motriz da trama, superando desafios. Em 2006, a Editora Objetiva publicou o romance A décima segunda noite, do escritor, cronista, cartunista, tradutor, roteirista e dramaturgo Luís Fernando Verissimo (1936-), uma releitura bem humorada da comédia shakespeariana, Twelfth Night or What you Will. O novo texto confirma a relevância das personagens femininas da comédia inglesa e possibilita que o leitor se divirta com as identidades trocadas por meio dos disfarces de gênero. Este quinto romance do escritor gaúcho é o segundo da coleção ‘Devorando Shakespeare’, que pretendia publicar recriações do dramaturgo inglês. Aqui, num movimento de convergência de duas de suas paixões – a capital francesa e a produção do dramaturgo inglês – o escritor gaúcho desloca o lócus dramático da Ilíria balcânica, para a Paris dos anos 70, lócus onde se constrói o híbrido, onde se cruzam os lugares realmente vividos por diferentes sujeitos oriundos dediversos estratos sociais que se unem através do sentimento de solidariedade de grupo, próprio da condição do exílio. De maneira sensível e inteligente, o romancista insere em seu texto um narrador particular: o papagaio Henri, que constrói sua narrativa a partir do poleiro onde o colocam, no salão de cabelereiros Ilíria, de propriedade de Orsino.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2022-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/letras/article/view/6466910.5902/2176148564669Letras; Edição Especial - 2/2020: Teatro Elisabetano e Jacobino: estudos textuais, teatrais e críticos; 39-542176-14851519-3985reponame:Letras (Santa Maria.
