Genet, a afirmação de vida e O Balcão
Palabras clave:
Genet, Nietzsche, desfamiliarização, niilismo, Teatro do AbsurdoResumen
Resumo: Este artigo visa contribuir para a reconceitualização da dramaturgia pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial ao desestabilizar a noção de Teatro do Absurdo a partir da crítica de Michael Y. Bennett (2011). Discute a influência decisiva de Friedrich Nietzsche tanto na trajetória pessoal quanto na prática artística de Jean Genet e propõe uma breve abordagem hermenêutica do texto dramático O balcão, originalmente publicado em 1956. Por um lado, o artigo argumenta que a obra dramática em questão retrata, com inequívoco pessimismo, o sujeito moderno à deriva do niilismo e, por outro lado, põe em relevo o vigor criativo que impeliu Genet a uma trajetória prodigiosa.
Palavras-chave: Genet; Nietzsche; desfamiliarização; niilismo; Teatro do Absurdo.
Abstract: This article aims to contribute to the reconceptualization of the post-World War II dramaturgy in destabilizing the notion of Theatre of the Absurd drawing upon Michael Y. Bennett’s perspective (2011). It discusses the decisive influence of Friedrich Nietzsche both on Jean Genet’s personal trajectory as well as his artistic practice and proposes a concise hermeneutic approach to the play The Balcony, first published in 1956. On the one hand, the article argues that the dramatic work in question portrays, with unequivocal pessimism, the modern subject adrift on nihilism and, on the other hand, it highlights the creative vigour that prompted Genet’s prodigious trajectory.
Keywords: Genet; Nietzsche; defamiliarization; nihilism; Theatre of the Absurd.
