Abstract(s)
A análise em paralelo do conto “Deutsches Requiem”, de Borges e do romance Aprender a rezar na era da técnica, de Tavares incide nos matizes da ironia como discurso da distanciação crítica, que não só desmonta a idolatria do nazismo, como reflecte sobre a banalidade do mal após Auschwitz. Ao desmontarem as leituras de Nietzsche feitas sob a óptica ideológica, os dois textos sondam o estado de excepção, o campo de concentração, na linha de Agamben e apelam para o dever ético da memória no sentido de formar o olhar céptico face às diversas manobras ideológicas da actualidade.
The analysis in parallel of the short story “Deutsches Requiem”, by Borges, and of Learning to Pray in the Technological Era, by Tavares, focuses on the nuances of irony as discourse of critical distancing, which not only deconstructs the idolatry of Nazism, but also reflects on the banality of evil after Auschwitz. When deconstructing the readings of Nietzsche, done under an ideological perspective, both texts probe the state of emergency, the concentration camp, following Agamben, and appeal to the ethical duty of memory so as to form a skeptical look in view of the various ideological manipulations of the present.
