Abstract(s)
Este trabalho analisa a ficção artística tomada no seu sentido mais amplo de transformação artefactual. Proponho que as obras de arte aparecem como artefactos que reflectem ou repetem de uma maneira tropológica (ou transformacional), não só um determinado argumento, mas também a própria transformação, e o seu correlato: a novidade. A predisposição replicativa e exemplificativa da ficção é assim abordada através de uma apresentação deliberadamente não sistemática de imagens ou ficções, tais como textos e quadros geralmente considerados artísticos, que, de alguma maneira, se exibem como novos, ao mesmo tempo que repetem outros quadros ou outros textos. Episódios paradigmáticos das Metamorphoses de Ovídio como “Eco e Narciso”, “Pigmalião” e “Aracne”, entre outros; algumas respostas poéticas a esses episódios; a narrativa autobiográfica e a análise da Criação nas Confessiones de Agostinho; mas também retratos anamórficos, um auto-retrato num espelho e um poema que supostamente o descreve são apresentados como exemplos particulares que reflectem a face múltipla e sempre em mudança da obra de ficção ou de arte.
This thesis deals with artistic fiction taken in its broadest sense of artifactual transformation. I propose that works of art stand as artifacts which reflect or repeat in a tropological (or transformational) way not only a certain argument, but also transformation itself, and its correlate: novelty. The exemplificative and replicative predisposition of fiction is thus approached by means of a deliberately non-systematic presentation of images or fictions, such as texts and paintings generally considered to be artistic, which in a certain way display themselves as new, whilst repeating other paintings or texts. Paradigmatic episodes from the Metamorphoses of Ovid such as “Echo and Narcissus”, “Pygmalion” and “Arachne” amongst others; some poetical responses to them; the autobiographical narrative and the analysis of Creation in Augustine’s Confessiones; as well as anamorphic portraits, a mirror self-portrait and a poem which supposedly describes it are presented as particular examples reflecting the multiple and ever-changing face of fiction or art work.
