Resumo
Navegando por entre-lugares da literatura, aventurando-se pelo universo que surge quando as fronteiras deixam de ser meras linhas divisórias e se expandem enquanto ambientes de múltiplas confluências e significações, nosso trabalho propõe-se a estudar a leitura que dois romances brasileiros contemporâneos fazem dos mitos literários hispânicos de Dom Juan e da picaresca. O feitiço da ilha do Pavão (1997), de João Ubaldo Ribeiro, e O Chalaça (1994), de José Roberto Torero, que podem ser classificadas como romances históricos contemporâneos, privilegiam a releitura crítica dos discursos da história hegemônica, que se processa por recursos como a carnavalização, a ironia e intertextualidade. No primeiro capítulo, focalizaremos a relação que o romance de Torero estabelece com a picaresca espanhola clássica, a partir do jogo de máscaras e níveis narrativos. No segundo, voltamo-nos ao romance de João Ubaldo Ribeiro, discutindo o processo pelo qual o texto, ao dialogar com as narrativas do realismo maravilhoso e do mágico, reitera o mito de Dom Juan. O terceiro capítulo, por sua vez, trata de aproximar os dois romances, pelo espaço de apropriação mítico literário que compartilham, o qual emerge por meio da carnavalização e da metaficção. Ricamente intertextuais, os dois romances encontram-se no cruzamento de suas tessituras com construções discursivas de procedência variada. A retomada do pícaro e de Dom Juan fomenta os aspectos desconstrucionistas do romance histórico contemporâneo, uma vez que os dois se caracterizam como anti-heróis que integram um espaço social ex-cêntrico, contrário às normas instituídas
Sailing through the in-betweenness of literature, adventuring over the universe that appears when the frontiers cease to be mere dividing lines and are expanded to an environment of multiple confluences and meanings, our work proposes to study the reading that some contemporary Brazilian novels make of the Hispanic literary myths of picaro and Don Juan. The novels O feitiço da ilha do Pavão (1997), by João Ubaldo Ribeiro, and O Chalaça (1994), by José Roberto Torero, can be classified as contemporary historical novels, privileging a critical rereading of the hegemonic historic discourses and this is made through resources such as carnivalization, irony and intertextuality. In the first chapter, we focus on the relationship that Torero’s novel establishes with the Spanish classical picaresque, that comes from games of masks and narrative layers. In the second, we look towards Ubaldo Ribeiro’s novel, discussing the process whereby the text, while dialoguing with the narratives of the marvelous and the magical realism, retrieves the myth of Don Juan. The third chapter aims to bring closer both historical novels, by the zone of mythical-literary appropriation which they share, and that emerges through carnivalization and metafiction. Highly intertextual, the two novels meet on the crossing of their own tissue, with discursive building coming from a variety of sources. The recall of picaro and of Don Juan foments the deconstructionist aspects of the contemporary historical novel, once they are anti-heroes that integrate an ex-centric social space, contrary to the established norms
