O Espectador como Narciso, o Teatro como Espelho: Considerações sobre as Peças 'Amor no Espelho', de Giovan Battista Andreini, e 'Narciso', de Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Theatre plays as Amor nello specchio, written by Giovan Battista Andreini in 1622, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Narcisse (1752), thematize the condition of a spectator submitted to the established morality or inserted in a determinate political structure. Thus, here the myth of Narcissus and the theme of mirroring do not restrict themselves to the realm of individualized psyche.

A Sancta Sapientia Medieval: enigma e mistério no teatro cristão de Rosvita de Ganderseheim

Within the scope of Literary Studies, theory, criticism, and historiography about the literature produced in the Middle Ages developed considerably from 1940 on, with the works of Ernst Curtius, Mikhail Bakhtin, and Erich Auerbach. In spite of the progress made, some specific aspects remain in the shadow, with incursions which were punctual though meaningful: that is the case of the critic fortunes about women‟s literary production in that period. Rosvita was a canoness and lived in the Benedictine convent of Gandersheim (Germany), in the 10th century A.D. Coming under Terence‟s influence, she wrote theater plays in Latin in which she figuratively presented theological issues in order to spread the Christian doctrine. The martyrdom issue deserved to be put in relief and was the focal point of the play Wisdom, which took place at the time of the Roman emperor Adrian. This paper analyzes that dramatic text discussing, at the end, how the categories of symbol, enigma, allegory, and mystery are organized by the author as expressive resources and structural elements.
