    Alan Moore Comics as Performance, Fiction as Scalpel

    No full text
    Eclectic British author Alan Moore (b. 1953) is one of the most acclaimed and controversial comics writers to emerge since the late 1970s. He has produced a large number of well-regarded comic books and graphic novels while also making occasional forays into music, poetry, performance, and prose. In Alan Moore: Comics as Performance, Fiction as Scalpel , Annalisa Di Liddo argues that Moore employs the comics form to dissect the literary canon, the tradition of comics, contemporary society, and our understanding of history. The book considers Moore's narrative strategies and pinpoints the main thematic threads in his works: the subversion of genre and pulp fiction, the interrogation of superhero tropes, the manipulation of space and time, the uses of magic and mythology, the instability of gender and ethnic identity, and the accumulation of imagery to create satire that comments on politics and art history. Examining Moore's use of comics to scrutinize contemporary culture, Di Liddo analyzes his best-known works-- Swamp Thing, V for Vendetta, Watchmen, From Hell, Promethea , and Lost Girls . The study also highlights Moore?s lesser-known output, such as Halo Jones, Skizz , and Big Numbers , and his prose novel Voice of the Fire. Alan Moore: Comics as Performance, Fiction as Scalpel reveals Moore to be one of the most significant and distinctly postmodern comics creators of the last quarter-century.Intro -- Contents -- Preface and Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- CHAPTER 1.

    O paradoxo de Moore e a declaração: consequências do choque de acessos de primeira e terceira pessoas

    Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-graduação em FilosofiaNeste trabalho, defendemos uma proposta de solução alternativa ao Paradoxo de Moore (PM). Para isso, no primeiro capítulo, após apresentarmos o PM em sua caracterização mais geral, estabelecemos um conjunto de condições que julgamos necessário para uma análise do problema. Com essas condições, pretendemos analisar diferentes soluções encontradas na literatura sobre o problema, criticando-as. No segundo capítulo, procuramos rejeitar aquelas que denominamos 'soluções assercionistas' ao PM, mostrando que discutir o problema em cenários que recorrem a teorias de atos de fala é improdutivo. No terceiro capítulo, a crítica recai sobre soluções que identificamos como 'mentalistas'; procuramos identificar que não são soluções produtivas ao PM, principalmente por necessitarem defender princípios doxásticos e epistêmicos demasiado 'fortes' em suas tentativas de garantir a racionalidade epistêmica. No quarto capítulo, mudamos a rota de investigação. Nossa crítica recai sobre um tipo de solução witgensteiniana ao PM, cuja característica geral é identificar as sentenças Moore-paradoxais como 'contradições disfarçadas'. Procuramos apontar uma lacuna presente neste tipo de análise, o que torna as referidas soluções vulneráveis à crítica. No quinto e último capítulo, defendemos uma proposta de solução a partir de R. Moran, para quem, ao reler certas passagens das Investigações Filosóficas de Wittgenstein, as sentenças Moore-paradoxais revelam um choque de acessos de primeira e terceira pessoas. Defendemos que esse choque de perspectivas faz com que as pessoas, em estado akrático (akrasia epistêmica) comprometam as suas participações racionais em determinados jogos de linguagem. Por fim, com essa leitura em vista, procuramos responder as condições de análise que propusemos no início do trabalho
