THE DOUBLE AND THE OTHERNESS IN “O CÍRCULO”, BY RUTH LAUS

This article aims to approach the issue of deployment of the self in the short story "O círculo", by Ruth Laus, through the figure of the character Paula and the pursuit of her double. The study of the female character, while literary representation, and related to the duplicity, is associated with issues related to identity and the construction of the self, from an internal scission, allowing therefore to examine the representation of the double, permeated by issues related to otherness, especially regarding to the maintenance of subjectivity in the search of the Other as an extension of the self. The double, in turn, is established as the phenomenon able to settle an active connection with the world, the dialectic condition of the creature, as a way of affirmation from the conception of (re)cognition of the Other as a link between past-present-future in the (re)construction of the unit and establishment of the balance. For the character Paula the element that indicates the division of her personality is the aborted fetus and thenceforth begins the maintenance of the inner Self of the protagonist: find what from her was split.

Évènement: The Tragic Hero (Immortal) Under Lacanian Materialism Bias

Alain Badiou (1994) argues that the failure of the discourses that govern the society is the result of a misplaced ethics. The preservation of human rights and respect for diversity are among the imperatives that naturalize the dominant ideology as a mainstay of the status quo. To supplant the values ​​of a generalization that leads to the subjection and omission, the philosopher presents the "ethics of truths", in which the subject dispenses with the attitude of victimization, increasing in its subjectivity. In this way, it’s put in the forefront the recognition of the Same and the ability to pursue a truth process. Moving away from the passive behavior and unanimity, comes the immortal subject, which resists to the conduct of "animal-to-death", becoming faithful to an Event, occurrence that will transform many lives and will lead to single completeness as possible. In Greek myth, Prometheus rises to the rank of immortal at the time that gives us the human race with the freedom, through the gift of fire. This event is the appointment to which Prometheus listens and by which he gives up the advantages of the gods world, overcoming the limits of a typical lifetime to build the character of transcendence, the immortality. Despite the punishment that is suffering, Prometheus remains faithful to the disruption that it introduces, personifying an authentic warrior against the high-handed Olympic power.
