| Resumo: | The present research aims to establish a comparative study of the heroes of the
novels Grande sertão: veredas, by João Guimarães Rosa, and A portrait of the
artist as a young man, by James Joyce. In theoretical terms, we appropriate
Lukacs's Theory of the novel, whose considerations about the loss of the
extensive totality of life, as well as the essentially problematic condition of the
hero are fundamental for the proposed analysis. To complement Lukacs'
theoretical foundation, we turn to Reflections on the modern novel, by Anatol
Rosenfeld, as his series of hypotheses provides us with a narrowing of the
possibilities of dialogue. Based on that, our thesis articulates the communication
between the works restricting itself to the observation of the heroes under three
aspects. First, we take the novels from the perspective of the Bildungsroman
tradition through the typology Erziehungsroman designated by Lukacs (2007) in
dialogue with the concept of late Bildungsroman by Moretti (2020). In a second
moment, we observe how the authors resort to mythical models for the
construction of their heroes. For this, we start from the hypothesis, suggested
by Rosenfeld (1996), about the return of the modern novel to the archetypal
models. To address the relationship between myth and literature, we visited the
considerations of authors such as Barthes (2001) and Mielietinski (1987); for
the analysis of our objects of study, we resorted to Northrop Frye's theory of
modes (2014). Finally, we investigate how narrative procedures and temporal
subjectivity are linked to the psychological profile of these characters. For this,
in addition to the mentioned essay by Rosenfeld (1996), we resorted to texts by
Auerbach (2015) and Adorno (2003). Through this study, we concluded that,
through the three indicated categories, the cultural-thematic barrier is
overcome, proving the breadth of the thematic horizon and the problematic
condition of these protagonists. On the other hand, it was found that the links of
stylistic values between the authors, commonly promoted by linguistic criteria,
can be established through other categories, such as the character study proposed here. |
