Abstract

LAGE, Sílvia Machado  and  FOSCARINI, Sílvia Regina Gomes. On the aesthetical experience of Maurice Ravel´s composition: Bolèro. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2006, n.29, pp. 121-132. ISSN 0100-3437.

This essay intends to examine the relations between psychoanalysis, music and dance and specially the aesthetic recourse to the pulsing experience of the work of art in some authors production. For all the Ravel’s Bolero has been taken as a paradigm. The hypothesis is that the appreciation of Ravel’s work, with its distortions of form and the pungency of its melody enable us to comprehend- instead of interpreting- the phenomenon of art and its subjective effects approached from the conceptual framework of psychoanalysi.

Keywords : Aesthetics and psychoanalysis; Dance; Music; Ravel’s Bolero; Musical enjoyment; Emptiness of significance; Subjective experience of the work of art.
