Produktbeschreibung
"Ceremonies of Oblivion", based on the protagonist's quest to find out the identity of the narrator who tells him a story, presents a complex compositional procedure which removes the referential character of personal pronouns, making it difficult to identify narrators and characters. This difficulty in identification corresponds to an indifferentiation between temporalities and memories, with which the protagonist is confronted in his quest to remember his own father and, consequently, to affirm himself. The relationship with the father is approached from the point of view of Freudian psychoanalysis, unfolding into a reflection on the relationship with violent and repressive authority, a theme that also applies to the experience of authoritarian governments, as was the case in the Brazilian context in which the author lived. As a result, this work proposes a reflection on the meaning of authority, acquired through wisdom, a characteristic aspect of the traditional narrator, according to Walter Benjamin. Ultimately, it aims to lead to reflection on the place of subjectivity in contemporary times.
