Abstract

FONSECA, Tania Mara Galli  and  ZIR, Alessandro. Édipo em mim: uma discussão sobre a subjetivação nos limites do trágico. Rev. Mal-Estar Subj. [online]. 2009, vol.9, n.3, pp. 905-916. ISSN 1518-6148.

Departing from the character of Sophocles' Oedipus, this text discusses aesthetic elements of classic tragedy that remain relevant to a critical understanding of issues about ways of subjectivation and identity. These aesthetic elements are taken from the reflections about the tragic advanced in the German thought of the end of the 19th century, in authors such as Hölderlin, Hegel and Nietzsche. We focus in notions such as conflict, excess, and the relation between the tragic and the comic, paying attention to the paradox that such notions convey to the exercise of thinking. We welcome the challenge of writing not only about these notions, but embedding them in the very way the paper is written. In relation to this challenge, the reference is Maurice Blanchot.

Keywords : subjectivation; identity; tragedy; excess; comedy.
