Reflexos do pensamento de Nietzsche na poesia de Alberto Caeiro: Do retorno à Natureza para além do bem e do mal

Abstract

This work tries to unveil the relations between the Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche s thought and the philosophical poetry of Alberto Caeiro, heteronimous poet appurtenant to the Fernando Pessoa s literature. Therefore, we have raised a dense bibliography, which includes from the studies of Professor Eduardo Lourenço (even those he deals exclusively on Pessoa), Georg Rudolf Lind, Américo Enes Monteiro, Antonio Azevedo and others about the subject, and we have attenpted to the Heidegger and Deleuze s interpretations on Nietzsche, not forgetting the attentive and passionate immersion in the works of our philosopher and poet in question, as well as in the libertarian US democrat Walt Whitman, the modernity s poet, who appears here as a primary key access to the interpretations on Alberto Caeiro. From these, beyond other more recent studies, raise the presente search, observing the suspects of Lourenço (1989) about the poetry in the work O guardador de rebanhos (The keeper of sheeps) being a group of key-ideias of the Nietzsche s philosophy, believing so to introduce to this group of searchs important data to understand the heteronymic project in pessoa as a whole, as well the relation of the other creations of Pessoa with the master. It has been investigated the imminence between the philosopher and the poet in themes like amor fati, the natural nature and the tragic nature, the despersonalization, the revaluation of values, among others. Finally, Caeiro is defined as the Pessoa s interpretation of the Nietzsche s Übermensch, to the poet: the most perfect of the animals .
