A escrita labiríntica e performática de Antonin Artaud

Abstract

This work uses the language of performance as a theoretical support for building different strategies of analysis of two Antonin Artaud literary works: Jet of blood(1975) and To have done with judgment of God(1983). The goal is to draw tension points that are part of the aesthetic construction of these plays, which meanings remain mostly elusive. In these plays, Artaud disposes of linguistic codes and structures based on conclusive dramatic action, proposing a procedural written, open, incomplete. Thus, the scope of this study is to establish a dialogue between the concept of performance and Artaud literature. In addition, it will use also the concept of Derrida (deconstruction), of Agamben (negativity and voice), of Didi-Huberman (dialectical image and anachronism), of Adorno (negative dialectics) as reading operators to rate the extent to which these can be considered performative dramaturgy.
