Abstract(s)
O objetivo desta dissertação centra-se à volta da discussão do resultado do encontro entre a Literatura e a Psicanálise. A palavra escrita, fonte de conhecimento acumulado ao longo dos milénios, cada vez se vai tornando mais complexa e ao longo do tempo esse conhecimento vai-se tornando tão denso que o seu significado se esconde como que num palimpsesto, demasiadas vezes escritos, camada sobre camada sobre si mesmo, onde agora só nuances de letras e palavras se podem discernir, chamando á sua exploração e redescoberta, através de novos meios mais poderosos a atualizados. Neste documento será explorado igualmente a significância do papel do herói arquetipal em contexto literário, baseado na estrutura do mito do herói, enunciada por Campbell no seu livro, o herói das mil faces, construido através de uma análise mitológica do herói ao longo dos tempos. Serão exploradas também a fantasia e a imaginação, em relação ao inconsciente freudiano, e o inconsciente coletivo de Jung, na forma das suas representações arquetípicas e como as mesmas se ligam à estrutura de Campbell, onde uma análise de um mito moderno, a Guerra das Estrelas, deverá ajudar a clarificar a referida relação.
ABSTRACT: The goal of this dissertation centers around the discussion of the reunion between Literature and Psychoanalysis. Written word, source of knowledge acummulated throughout the millenia, is getting more complex, as time evolves, the knowledge becomes so dense that its meaning starts hiding itslef as in palimpsesto, written so many times over and over itself, that now only shadows of letters and words remain, urging to be explored and rediscovered. In this document will be also explored the significance of the role of the arquetipal hero in literary context, based on the structure of the hero myth, enunciated in Campbell’s book: the hero with a thousand faces, moved by the power of myth and symbol throughout times. It will be explored also, the importance of fantasy and imagination in relation to Freudian personal unconscious, and Jungian collective unconscious in the form of arquetipal representations and how they connect to Campbell’s structure, where an analysis of a modern hero myth, Star Wars, is set to clarify the connection.
