Resumo
A pesquisa que propomos neste trabalho objetiva o estudo do processo de construção de personagens anti-heróis nos romances Una Vita (1892), Senilità (1898) e La coscienza di Zeno (1923), de Italo Svevo. Nossa tese é a de que as obras revisam o conceito de Identidade Nacional Italiana ao tematizar a crise dos personagens protagonistas e/ou narradores nas obras estudadas, num contexto político-social em transformação acelerada na Itália do final do século XIX, início do século XX, por meio da ironia e da paródia. A trajetória dos personagens e os elementos narrativos que os caracterizam estimulam a discussão sobre o conhecimento de si mesmo, instaurando questionamentos a respeito dos postulados empreendidos por autores da tradição literária italiana que tinham por objetivo construir o sentimento de patriotismo e Identidade Nacional para os italianos. Nossa hipótese de trabalho fundamenta-se no conceito cunhado por Linda Hutcheon intitulado “Metaficção historiográfica”, por observarmos que os textos se oferecem como discursos que entrelaçam as funções do literário, do histórico e do teórico. Tomamos como base, ainda, autores da Historiografia literária italiana, da história, teóricos da teoria literária, bem como aqueles que fazem parte da fortuna crítica do escritor. Entre eles, destacamos: De Sanctis (1997), Raimondi (1998), Campbell (2007, 1990), Eliade (1963, 1069, 1972), Hobsbawm (1995, 2008, 2014), Hall (1999), Anderson (2008), Galasso (1997, 2012), Bechelloni (1991), Bollati (1983) e Della Loggia (1998).
The present study aims at analysing the composition of the antihero character in the novels Una Vita (1892), Senilità (1898) and La coscienza di Zeno (1923), by Italo Svevo. Our hipothesis is that those novels review the concept of national identity by bringing about the protagonists’ and the narrators’ crisis within a context of accelerated political and social transformation in Italy, by the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century, by the means of irony and parody. The performance of the characters and the narrative elments of the story stimulate the discussion on self consciousness, raising questions regarding statements made by traditional italian authors seeking to fabricate the feeling of patriotism and National Identity for italian people. Our hypothesis is based on the concept of historiographic metafiction by Linda Hutcheon. This theory was chosen as we percieved that the novels can be seen as a discourse that assemble literary, historical ant theoretical functions. We also based our study on works by authors from Italian literary historiography, historical studies, literary theory as well as those that constitute critical readings of Italo Svevo’s work. The most important theoretical studies used in our analysis are by De Sanctis (1997), Raimondi (1998), Campbell (1990, 2007), Eliade (1963, 1069, 1972), Hobsbawm (1995, 2008, 2014), Hall (1999), Anderson (2008), Galasso (1997, 2012), Bechelloni (1991), Bollati (1983) e Della Loggia (1998).
