O FANTÁSTICO EM O CORAÇÃO DELATOR, DE EDGAR ALLAN POE

Edgar Allan Poe foi um dos maiores expoentes da literatura fantástica. Destacou-se ao escrever histórias com fatos insólitos que provocam reações inquietantes em seus personagens e leitores. O presente artigo tem como objetivo fazer um estudo crítico do conto O coração delator, de Edgar Allan Poe, à luz da teoria de Tzvetan Todorov. Para tanto, utilizamos as observações sobre a obra de Edgar Allan Poe que Todorov abordou no livro Introdução à literatura fantástica. No conto analisado, um conto de crime com um narrador-protagonista que está no limite entre o real e o imaginário, procuramos identificar alguns elementos marcantes em sua estrutura e conteúdo. Todorov demonstra que a situação presente na literatura fantástica promove uma ‘hesitação’, pois no mundo que conhecemos pode acontecer algo insólito e inesperado e coincidir ou não com o mundo real. Verificamos e apresentamos a junção dos elementos que proporcionam o efeito de estranhamento e ambigüidade, bem como o ‘pandeterminismo’, características dos textos fantásticos de Edgar Allan Poe.

Aspectos “Melangóticos” da Poesia de Alphonsus de Guimaraens e de Edgar Allan Poe

O propósito deste artigo é o de estabelecer algumas analogias e contrastes entre Edgar Allan Poe e Alphonsus de Guimaraens em relação aos preceitos estéticos que decidiram imprimir a sua produção poética, mormente quanto aos temas de amor (Eros) e morte (Tânatos). Procuramos demonstrar que esses matizes temáticos são trabalhados sob a angulação do gótico-melancólico a fim de se atingir o sublime. Teorizamos sobre como o gótico, a melancolia e o sublime podem ser alinhavados poeticamente e  discutimos os modi operandi que Poe e de Alphonsus empregam nessa triangulação entre traços góticos, melancolia e o sublime.

Imagens da morte: um estudo do gênero policial-fantástico em Poe, Wilde e Christie

The mirror has always been related to different symbols, usually connected to self-knowledge and truth. This is due to the fact that this object shows whoever looks oneself in it an image as close to reality as it is possible. On the other hand, the mirror is also associated to mysticism and to the supernatural for it can magically duplicate one who looks into it. This ambiguous characteristic turns the mirror into an element that is fantastic in itself and places it in the central position of our discussion. Therefore, in this study, we analyze the texts In a Glass Darkly, by Agatha Christie, The Oval Portrait, by Edgar Allan Poe, and The Picture of Dorian Gray, by Oscar Wilde, giving special attention to the study of the images and artificial representations of men: the mirror, as an ephemeral representation; and the portrait, as an attempt to eternize an ephemeral image. We also discuss themes such as jealousy, the double, and death in the several forms in which it appears in the texts: suicides, homicides, attempted murders, death in life (mourning, separation, and developmental phases) all of which are, somehow, related to the specular representations. The narrative resource of using a mirror to introduce the supernatural event, along with the theme of death in all the narratives we have studied, and the difficulty to place these texts within the pre-established genres led us to categorize them as being part of a hybrid genre that presents characteristics both of the fantastic and of the detective story which we have named fantastic-detective story

Reminiscências de Poe em contos machadianos

A reflection on Machado de Assis established relationship with the North American writer Edgar Allan Poe short stories is proposed here. A comparison between the short stories The Man of the Crowd and Só! [Lonely] is made in order to set the contrast between characters and theme treatment, fictionally elaborated by the two writers, considering the concept of influence within the framework of Comparative Literature.

Poe tornado fellini: adaptação literária no cinema autoral

The purpose of this article is to assess Federico Fellini’s adaptation of an Edgar Allan Poe story for the screen. The film “Spirits of the Dead” is Fellini’s adaptation of Poe’s story “Never Bet the Devil your Head”, but it is very far from being a faithful rendering. The “infidelity” of the Italian film director to the American writer occurred in the context of the enormous prestige enjoyed by what was known as “authorism”, a phase which the film industry was going through at the end of the 1960s, whereby great value was placed on the aesthetic idiosyncrasies of individual film directors.
