Resumo: Qual o significado da escrita no motivo benjaminiano da história como salvação do passado? No ensaio sobre Kafka (1934), o problema do caráter estético da escrita da história alia-se à questão do valor de verdade (“doutrina”) da literatura de ficção. Entre ambos, esboça- se uma dialética entre memória e esquecimento, na qual a escrita faz da narrativa uma espécie de memória que, agindo contra si mesma, atinge o “mar do feliz esquecimento”.
Palavras-chave: Benjamin; Kafka; escrita; doutrina; memória; esquecimento.
Abstract: What is the meaning of writing in Benjamin’s motif of history as a redemption of the past? In the essay on Kafka (1934), the problem of the aesthetic character of the writing of history is associated with the issue of the value of truth (“doctrine”) of fiction. Between the two there starts to come out a dialectics between remembering and forgetting, in which writing transforms narrative into a kind of memory which, acting against itself, achieves the “sea of happy forgetting”.
Keywords: Benjamin; Kafka; writing; doctrine; remembering; forgetting.
