Sedução do sonhar : os caminhos do devaneio poético em dois poetas sul-rio-grandenses

Abstract

Pasture to our original hunger of beauty and consciousness, poetry might be one of the human productions which best witness the way in which the affections drive our movements in the world and the production of knowledge. The theories of imaginary defended by Gaston Bachelard e Gilbert Durand provide a philosophical horizon that promotes understanding of some of the singularities of the lyric art. The study of the poetic reverie reveals the formation of a complex thought that bears witness of a worldview and a way to understand poetry. The phenomenology and the myth-criticism serve as tools of understanding of the two poetic universes chosen for the proposed discussion. The poetic works of Augusto Meyer and of Oscar Bertholdo reveal the development of a recovery project of the collective and of the spiritual, whose orientation is in reverie, the primary basis for establishing the dialogue between the individual and the social, the mythical and the historical, the sacred and the secular.
