Traces and voices of Sylvia Plath: reminiscences and memories

A proposta deste trabalho à analisar, de modo comparativo, a temÃtica da melancolia, do suicÃdio e da morte em oito poemas da obra Ariel, de Sylvia Plath â âLady Lazarusâ, âDaddyâ, âThe moon and the yew treeâ, âDeath & Coâ, âArieâl, âTulipsâ, âThe detectiveâ e âPurdahâ â, em cinco poemas de outras obras da mesma escritora â âPursuitâ, âThe tree of lifeâ, âMirrorâ, âEdgeâ e âWordsâ â, em quatro pinturas intituladas Vita e Morte, Allegoria de la vita unama, La morte del peccatore e Melancolia I e na obra fÃlmica Sylvia, paixÃo alÃm das palavras, de Christine Jeffs. Partindo da intertextualidade temÃtica estabelecida entre as linguagens artÃsticas â cinema, pintura e poema â que constituem o corpus desta pesquisa e da concepÃÃo de poesia enquanto local de cultura, estuda-se a poÃtica de Sylvia Plath, que se constrÃi pelas tramas do imaginÃrio, do processo rememorativo e do esquecimento, de modo que arte e sofrimento se confluem e a sombra do suicÃdio da autora se projeta sobre o texto. Trata-se, sobretudo, de um fazer poÃtico que remete à condiÃÃo humana de transitoriedade e permanÃncia: a permanÃncia da escrita e a transitoriedade da vida. Para tanto, este estudo baseia-se, sobretudo, nos pressupostos teÃricos de Paz (1982, 1991 e 1993), Gagnebin (2005, 2006, 2009), Schopenhauer (2001), Yates (2007), de Almeida (1999), Weinrich (2001), Bosi (2000), Adorno (1975), Benjamin (2000), Seligmann-Silva (2010) e Chevalier (2003)The purpose of this paper is to analyze, in a comparative way, the theme of melancholy, suicide, and death in eight Ariel poems the work of Sylvia Plath - "Lady Lazarus", "Daddy", "The moon and the yew tree "," Death & Co ", "Ariel," Tulips "," The detective "and" Purdah "- in five poems from other works of the same writer -" Pursuit "," the tree of life "," Mirror "," Edge "and" Words "- in four paintings entitled âVita e Morteâ, âAllegoria la vita unamaâ, âLa morte del peccatoreâ and âMelancolia Iâ and the movie âSylvia , passion beyond wordsâ by Christine Jeffs. Based on the established thematic intertextuality between artistic forms - film, painting and poem - which constitute the corpus of this research and the conception of poetry as a place of culture, studies the poetry of Sylvia Plath, which is constructed by the plots of the imaginary, process and reminiscent of forgetfulness, so that art and suffering may converge and the shadow of suicide author protrudes over the text. It is, above all, a poetic which refers to the human condition of transience and permanence: the permanence of writing and transience of life. Therefore, this study is based mainly on the theoretical principles of Paz (1982, 1991 and 1993), Gagnebin (2005, 2006, 2009), Schopenhauer (2001), Yates (2007), Almeida (1999), Weinrich (2001), Bosi (2000), Adorno (1975), Benjamin (2000), Seligmann-Silva (2010) and Chevalier (2003
