Resumo
O artigo centra-se nas linhas de reflexão estrutural
dentro do universo literário, mais precisamente no conto “O
Gato Preto” de Edgar Allan Poe e na peça mítica de Nelson
Rodrigues, “Anjo Negro”. Estão em causa autores vinculados
a movimentos estéticos e literários específicos, que inscrevem
a sucessão de acontecimentos históricos de suas narrativas em
gêneros distintos. O objetivo consiste em investigar as facetas
de similaridades das obras. Mesmo tendo sido produzidas por
impulsos intelectuais diferentes, o conto e a peça apresentam
uma filiação à antinomia fundante do pensamento mítico.
Ambas as composições não somente criam dualismos, como
também os repetem na tessitura histórica estabelecida em cada
uma das narrativas, num movimento semelhante ao de uma
espiral. Constatam-se também as características universais e
universalizantes dos textos, na medida em que não existe uma
delimitação espacial e temporal definida.
Abstract The article focuses on the lines of structural reflection within the literary universe, more precisely in Edgar Allan Poe’s short story “The Black Cat” and in the mythical play “Black Angel” by Nelson Rodrigues. These authors are linked to specific aesthetic and literary movements, having dedicated themselves to the depiction of historical events in their narratives of distinct genres. The aim consists of investigating the similarities in these works. Even if they were written out of different intellectual impulses, the short story and the play present an affinity to the fundamental antinomy upon which mythical thought is grounded. Not only do both compositions create dualisms, but they also repeat them in the historical weaving established in each narrative, in a kind of spiral movement. The universal and universalizing characteristics of both texts are also determined, as there is no defined delimitation of space and time.
