    A otobiografia de Thomas Bernhard: por uma Origem indecidível e redentora

    No full text
    Tese (doutorado)- Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura, Florianópolis, 2015.Esta tese tem como objetivo investigar o procedimento da escrita de si de Thomas Bernhard, sua Origem, a partir de uma ideia que ela mesma monta: entender os escritos de si como um exercício de escuta. Trata-se de um relato de vida do que se ouve e não do que realmente houve. Nem verdade, nem mentira, mas, ao mesmo tempo, verdade e mentira, ou seja, é falar de uma otobiografia que opera sorrateiramente no campo do indecidível, que não se deixa enclausurar em um gênero. Essa estranha instituição bernhardiana é aberta, livre, e não permite sua apreensão pelos discursos totalitários de fechamento. Ela toma forma, assim, de uma escritura de resistência. Deste estranho limbo indecidível surge o ator Thomas Bernhard [um falso mentiroso] e suas performances permeadas de exageros e repetições teatrais que apontam, deste modo, através de suas máscaras, para a desestabilização das representações. Esse é, sobretudo, um gesto político. No trabalho arqueológico proposto na presente tese o pulo original [Ursprung] a essa mesma Origem se revela redentor a partir do momento em que Thomas Bernhard decide contar a história dos vencidos.Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate the self-writing procedure by Thomas Bernhard, its Origin, from an idea that it presents to us: understanding self-writings as a listening exercise, it is a life story of what is heard rather than what really has happened. Neither truth nor lie, but at the same time, truth and lie, that is, talking about an otobiography operating surreptitiously in the field of the undecidable, which cannot be cloistered in a genre. This strange Bernhardian institution is open, free, does not allow its apprehension by the totalitarian speeches of enclosure, and thus being shaped as a writing of resistance. From this alien, undecidable limbo arises the actor Thomas Bernhard [a false liar] and his performances permeated with exaggerations and theatrical repetitions that link, thus, through their masks, to the destabilization of representations. This is, mainly, a political gesture. In the archaeological work proposed in the following thesis the primordial leap [Ursprung] to that same Origin is revealed redeeming from the moment Thomas Bernhard decides to tell the history of the vanquished

    Spokane, Washington, United StatesThis accession forms part of the Washington State Jewish Archives. Rose Minnie Cohn was born in Spokane in 1894, the daughter of Harry Cohn, who was in the furniture business there. She studied at Northwestern University and later married A.M. Goldstein (later changed to Bernhard) who had a shoe store in Seattle. Bernhard discusses her numerous civic activities in Seattle including the Children's Orthopedic Guild, Council of Jewish Women, Temple de Hirsch Sisterhood, Ladies Montefiore Society, and the Jewish Family and Child Service. She also speaks about working as a nurse's aid at Madigan Hospital during World War II and helping to resettle refugees as a representative of the Temple de Hirsch Sisterhood which worked with the Washington Emigre Bureau and the Jewish Family and Child Service.To request a high resolution or uncompressed reproduction, or to obtain permission to use any portion of this item, contact the University of Washington Libraries, Special Collections.
