Poéticas de tempo-espaço: imagens em Nadja e La invención de Morel

Abstract

Who am I? The initial question from the novel, set in Paris, Nadja (1928) express well one of the main concerns of the following work, that sets in relationship the novel from the surrealist Andre Breton and La invención de Morel (1940) by Adolfo Bioy Casares, a narrative that takes place on an island. A connection that is done primarily by the observation of a series of interweaving between male and female, the triggers set by one when in touch with the other: by one side Nadja and Breton – character from the novel; from the other side, Faustine and the anonymous island inhabitant. Therefore, the following directions includes a brief contextualization about the novels century, pointing out some important aspects for the understanding of the novels as a result of a certain specific time in history that do not limit them, but with which the works dialogue; a study of the theories that sustain the present analysis and, ultimately, the intersection of the novels in the perspective of comparative studies, observing aspects of similarity and difference. For doing it, some authors and sources were fundamental, such as Jozef (1974, 2005); Komosinski (2001); Fuentes (1976); Breton (1924, 2007); Gombrich (1988); Deleuse & Guattari (1995-1997); Bachelard (1978-1998); Batchelor (1998), Fer (1998), Nichols (2001), Jung (1964-2008), Willer (2007-2016), Freitas (2006), Lispector (1998), Jaffé (1964), Franz (1964), Nietzsche (2002), Willer (2007-2016), Durand (2012) and Zourabichvili (2004).
