Escúchame con tu cuerpo entero: antiocularcentrismo, crisis de la palabra y sinestesia en Clarice Lispector

Abstract

This analysis addresses two key texts by Clarice Lispector, The Stream of Life (Água viva, 1973) and "Love" ("Amor" -the second story in Laços de família, 1960) -avoiding the oft-repeated intimate and metalinguistic classifications of the writer's work and suggesting an opening to contradiction, latency and inconclusiveness as writing and interpretation procedures. Instead of a categorical reading from the perspective of a specific genre, this paper proposes, in line with the author's indications in both writings, a theoretical approach to Heniz von Foerster's observation system, the antiocularcentrism analyzed by Martin Jay and the notion of crisis of the word in Michel Foucault. As an alternative reading, narration, experimentation and synesthesia are indicated as possible approximations to both texts. Finally, the relationship between literature and life in Lispector's oeuvre is highlighted and it is observed how language issues point to political positions that radically transform the act of reading and anticipate its possible consequences, far beyond the literary text.

A Autora E Os Bichos: A Vida Íntima De Ulisses

“…Em 2020 foi comemorado o seu centenário de nascimento. Para além das clássicas investigações no campo da Literatura (Inácio, 2019), Clarice vem sendo estudada pela Filosofia e pela Psicologia (Rosenbaum, 2018), estabelecendo relações com os estudos de gênero (De Mauro, 2018;Rosito, 2018), da corporeidade (Pontes, 2017;Scorsolini-Comin & Santos, 2010), com a psicanálise (Silva, Silva, & Soares, 2018), a fenomenologia (Pojar & Scorsolini-Comin, 2020), a saúde mental (Junqueira & Scorsolini-Comin, 2021) e também com a narrativa do universo infantil (Scorsolini-Comin, 2019). Nessas investigações, a biografia da autora vem sendo problematizada no modo como seus itinerários pessoais emergem em sua escrita ficcional (Gutiérrez, 2019).…”
