Resumo
A arte contemporânea apresenta-se como palco de experimentações e intensificação de estratégias de elaboração estética que promovem o questionamento e a problematização do fazer artístico. Dentre os inúmeros recursos que engendram esse desafio, destaca-se aqui a gaucherie, procedimento discutido pelo crítico Roland Barthes e que atua com um viés crítico e irônico, atribuindo ao objeto artístico um proposital aspecto de “rebaixamento”, ou, como o prório nome sugere, um caráter de “desvio” por ser “canhoto”, “torto”, e, por extensão, aparentemente “desajustado”, “mal feito”. Nesse sentido, esta tese discute especificamente o funcionamento da gaucherie na literatura, buscando evidenciar que essa sensação de “desvio” ou “rebaixamento” é atingida a partir de um trabalho com a linguagem calcado na exploração da fala coloquial, do discurso do senso comum, de imagens que assimilam as categorias contra-sublimes, como o grotesco, o kitsch, o mau gosto e as manifestações do riso (comicidade, paródia, carnavalização), dentre outros recursos. Para tanto, são analisados textos dos autores brasileiros Dalton Trevisan e Hilda Hilst, e dos portugueses José Cardoso Pires e Adília Lopes. Tais obras revelam tratar-se de um procedimento marcado pela extrema consciência na inserção desses aspectos, o que culmina em um movimento autorreferencial, pois a obra expõe à discussão o seus próprios mecanismos de construção. Com isso, são gerados curiosos efeitos de ironia, visto que o texto convida o leitor a lançar um olhar crítico e sintonizado com o modo peculiar como essas produções leem a própria arte, relativizando as noções pré-concebidas acerca do fazer literário
Comtenporary Art presents itself as a stage for experimentations and intensification of strategies of aesthetic elaboration that promote the questioning of artistic manifestation and make it problematic. Among the innumerable resources that engender this challenge, here we emphasize gaucherie, a procedure that is discussed by the critic Roland Barthes and acts as a critical and ironic bias, attributing to the artistic object an intentional aspect of “lowering”, or, as the name itself suggests, a character of “deviation” because it is “left-handed”, “crooked”, and, by extension, apparently “maladjusted”, “rough”. Accordingly, this thesis specifically discusses how gaucherie works in literature, trying to make evident that this sensation of “deviation” or “lowering” is achieved as a result of a work with language based on the exploration of colloquial speech, the common sense discourse, images that assimilate the counter-sublime categories, such as the grotesque, kitsch, bad taste and the manifestations of laughter (comicality, parody, carnivalization), among other resources. In order to do so, texts written by the Brazilian authors Dalton Trevisan and Hilda Hilst and by the Portuguese authors José Cardoso Pires and Adília Lopes are analyzed. Such literary works reveal it is a process marked by the extreme awareness in the insertion of these aspects, which culminates in a self-referential movement, for the literary work introduces to discussion its own construction mechanisms. Thus, curious effects of irony are created, given that the text invites the reader to cast a critical eye to it, a critical look that is in tune with the peculiar way in which these productions read their own art, making relative the preconceived notions about literary manifestation
