Artaud s route is raw material for researchers of various hues interested in a life and work that allows panning in different fields of knowledge. It raises the question of language and manipulation of signals in terms of magical forces and the relationship maintained through them with the cosmos and the divine. Artaud searches through a language of signals, gestures and objects that express themselves by objective forms and the use of words as solid objects. For him, the language of words must give way to the language of signals, whose objective aspect is what strikes us most immediately. Our work indicates the possibility of realization and recognition of the aesthetic of cruelty present in the writing drawings of artaudian s work, realizing thus, that art as a record of culture hence as double of life allows us a more critical and transforming look to the society, thinking about the aesthetics of cruelty as Artaud proposes and thinks cruelty: as appetite for life. Our dialogue held during the construction of this journey has the company, besides the one of Antonin Artaud, other authors such as Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guatarri, among others which, during the hike and framing of this route help us to think about the aesthetics of cruelty in an Artaudian perspective / Antonin Artaud, nome que nos remete a ?reas que v?o do teatro ? poesia, da lingu?stica ? psican?lise, ? um nome polivalente que transita nas atividades de poeta, pintor, escritor, ator, roteirista, dramaturgo e diretor teatral. A trajet?ria de Artaud ? mat?ria-prima para pesquisadores dos mais variados matizes, interessados numa vida e numa obra que possibilitam garimpar em v?rias ?reas do conhecimento. Ele coloca a quest?o da linguagem e da manipula??o de signos em termos de for?as m?gicas e da rela??o mantida, atrav?s deles, com o cosmos e com o divino. Artaud busca uma linguagem atrav?s dos signos, de gestos e objetos que se expressam pelas formas objetivas e pelo uso das palavras como objetos s?lidos. Para ele, a linguagem das palavras deve dar lugar ? linguagem por signos, cujo aspecto objetivo ? o que mais nos atinge de imediato. Nosso trabalho aponta a possibilidade da percep??o e do reconhecimento da est?tica da crueldade nos desenhos escritos presentes na obra artaudiana, percebendo, assim, que a Arte como registro da cultura portanto, como duplo da vida , nos possibilita um olhar para a sociedade mais critico e transformador, pensando a est?tica da crueldade como Artaud prop?e e pensa a crueldade: como apetite de vida. Nosso di?logo mantido durante a constru??o dessa caminhada tem a companhia, al?m de Antonin Artaud, de autores como Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze e F?lix Guatarri, dentre outros que, no decorrer da caminhada e constru??o desse percurso nos ajudam a pensar a est?tica da crueldade numa perspectiva artaudiana

Este trabalho tem como objetivo abordar uma das obras mais importantes do escritor francês Antonin Artaud, Le Théâtre et son double, explorando o universo artaudiano, a partir de conceitos, como a peste e a crueldade. O estudo procura abordar a proposta de Teatro da Crueldade e as críticas feitas por Artaud em relação aos espetáculos apresentados na França na década de 1930. Por meio de uma crítica ao chamado teatro psicológico, Artaud exalta um teatro constituído por diversas linguagens, não restrito à mera reprodução do texto. Sem a pretensão de abordar a extensa obra escrita por Artaud, a dissertação tem como objetivo tratar de aspectos revelantes dos conceitos tratados por Artaud, como a crueldade e a peste, tentando identificar em sua proposta de teatro, o desenvolvimento de conceitos ligados à psicanálise, como a pulsão de morte. Procuramos, ainda, discutir o processo de criação de Artaud, problematizando a figura do Pai em sua escrita e a chamada outra cena do inconsciente que seria aberta pelo teatro da crueldade. / The purpose of this research is to analyse one of the most important works of Antonin Artaud, The Theater and its double (Le Théâtre et son double), exploring his universe from concepts like the pest and cruelty. The study seeks to analyse the proposal of the Theatre of Cruelty and the criticisms made by Artaud in relation to theatrical performances presented in France in the 1930s. By making a critique of the psychological theater, Artaud ideates a theater consisted of different languages, not restricted to the simple reproduction of the text. Without attempting to address the extensive work by Artaud, the dissertation aims to analyse some aspects of important concepts created by Artaud, as the cruelty and the pest, trying to identify in its proposal for the theater, as well as the development of concepts related to psychoanalysis, like the death drive. We also aim to discuss the creation process of Artaud, by analyzing the figure of the Father in his writing and the so called \"other unconscious scene\" that would be opened by the theater of cruelty.

Na primeira parte, em Anonimato e autobiografia II, questiona-se a possibilidade de escrever um trabalho acadêmico, na área de fronteira entre a filosofia, a psicologia e a literatura. Que assunto, que tema poderia dar conta de preencher uma dissertação? Qual estudo seria capaz de manter a atenção de um pesquisador-escritor? Na parte seguinte, começa-se a investigar os escritos de Bernardo Soares, heterônimo de Fernando Pessoa. O Livro do Desassossego, a partir das pesquisas de José Gil, é encarado como um enorme diário de descrições exteriores e sensações subjetivos, formando um diário infinito. O desenrolar da paisagem cadência o acontecimento das sensações, levando Soares a uma espécie de devir-paisagem. No último texto de O carretel, em Ele Olhava pela janela algumas anotações sobre Kafka e sobre o pensamento deleuziano do cinema, em particular sobre a noção de extracampo, especulam os pontos que liberariam a imagem do devir-paisagem, ou seja, quando o carretel do diário arrebenta. Cortada abruptamente a teoria, entre-se na última parte De onde a terra retira o seu alimento? Aqui estão reunidos textos heterogêneos, que já tentavam avançar sobre a dissertação desde o princípio. São crônicas, ficções, páginas de diários, poesias, coletâneas de textos da literatura... Nesse conjunto ecoa a pergunta do cão, afinal, De onde a terra retira o seu alimento? Esses textos se pretendem uma impossibilidade de resumo das situações aqui criadas, ou seja, em seu conjunto estão antes ou além da autobiografia, do diário e da narrativa de sensações. Também não se procura responder ao cão, apesar de sempre ser possível ouvir os ecos de seus latidos, pois em Sheol Literrário, último texto dessa parte, percebe-se que nem a tentativa de escrita dará conta da pergunta-título, e assim entra mais um volume para a biblioteca. Talvez seja possível ler o texto em ordem aleatória, pois cada texto tenta ser independente em si. A própria escrita não foi sistemática, como poderá observar o leitor, e reúne-se aqui escritos de várias épocas. Apesar da dissertação não ser uma resposta à pergunta-título através da escrita, gostaria de comentar o prazer com que alguns textos foram escritos, e principalmente, o surgimento da vontade de escrever. Afinal que outra atividade se aproxima tanto do quotidiano e das caminhadas, senão a escrita e o diário? E ainda, o que é uma dissertação se não um conjunto de textos?

In the period following the May 1968 protests, French women began to create theatre that highlighted women’s struggles. This study explores the dual influence of Antonin Artaud and Bertolt Brecht on plays by Hélène Cixous, Simone Benmussa, and the Théâtre du Soleil led by Ariane Mnouchkine. Artaud argued that theatre should become a transformative experience through an explosion of sensory stimuli: music, light, noise, and imagery. Conversely, Brecht wanted to use theatre to revolutionize society and theorized that by maintaining historical and emotional distance between the audience and the play, spectators would be encouraged to think critically about the its significance and be compelled to action. The female playwrights and directors studied created powerful theatre by combining these ideas in a manner mimicking Julia Kristeva’s notion of subject formation. Kristeva proposes that the human subject is never stable. Instead, it oscillates between the non-discursive, emotion-filled state she labels the semiotic and the more language- and logic-propelled symbolic register. These two realms are in constant tension as the semiotic disrupts the logic of the symbolic and in turn, the symbolic strives to regulate the semiotic impulses. In this study, I argue that the ideas of Artaud are aligned with the semiotic while those of Brecht resemble the symbolic. In the plays examined, the non-linguistic elements of the design and mise-en-scène engage with the didactic aims of the playwrights and directors, causing the spectator to connect emotionally with the story while simultaneously reflecting on its real-world signification.

Germaine Dulac's 1928 avant-garde film, La Coquille et le Clergyman, based on a script written by Antonin Artaud, presents the idea of the woman as an object of desire, subjected to the male gaze through the cinematic process. Not only is the lone female character the object of desire of her two male suitors on screen, but she also becomes the object of desire for the presumably male viewer of the film, who has become a silent character in the film. Rather than simply being the spectator, the viewer's own identity becomes entwined with that of the on screen characters. While the idea of the woman as the object of desire subjected to the often male gaze in the cinema has been analyzed by many feminist film theorists, including Laura Mulvey, Kaja Silverman and Mary Ann Doane, the theories presented center on films directed either by male directors or female directors since the 1970's. Very little has been written about films directed by women in the 1920's, including La Coquille et le Clergyman. By examining Coquille et le Clergyman, I hope to fill in a gap in the discourse of the majority of feminist film theory. This thesis will not only attempt to understand how Germaine Dulac, an early feminist film director, approaches the idea of the female body as an object of desire subjected to the male gaze differently than her male film director counterparts, but will examine how the relationships between the female character and the two male characters differ from other male directed avant-garde films from the 1920's and how these relationships affect spectatorship. By examining La Coquille et le Clergyman, I hope to better understand how Dulac's cinematic interpretation of Artaud's script treats the idea of spectatorship, not only in 1928, but also today.

Partindo da concepção de experiência trágica da loucura, como pressentiu Michel Foucault, contaminado pela perspectiva do trágico nietzschiano, sugere-se que há um jogo de transgressão e de limites entre razão e loucura, que se materializa na poética artaudiana como combate do corpo, da linguagem e do pensamento contra as estruturas que os imobilizam. No recorte biográfico da viagem de Antonin Artaud à Irlanda, cria-se uma tensão metafórica entre a imagem da água e a imagem da Ilha, a fim de demarcar o combate no duelo entre a Crueldade e o Juízo de Deus, que resultará nos duros anos de intermanto asilar a que o poeta foi submetido. De onde, sob a máscara de Vincent van Gogh, Antonin Artaud acusará a sociedade do ocidente de não suportar a sabedoria trágica dos corpos delirantes, demonstrando que aquilo que chamamos loucura, nada mais é do que a potência do pensamento louco, tomada por uma Tentação para devir, a cada vez que a Crueldade da existência diante dele se desnuda, a tal ponto de provocar o suicídio. / This master´s dissertacion is historical-critical research, in the search line of History, Criticism and Reception. It was organized in the meeting academis essays, form and method of approach inspired by Adorno, Theodor (2013). The author this dissertacion produced three structurally independent texts and subjectively interchanged and she sought to pursue the traces of madness that marks the poetic of Antonin Artaud. Starting from the conception of tragic madness experience as envisioned Michel Foucault, contaminated by the Nietzschean tragic perspective, the dissertacion suggests that there is a game of transgression and of the limits of reason and madness which is embodied in the artaudiana poetic as body combat, language combat and thought combat against the structures that immobilize them. In the biographical outline of the travel Antonin Artaud Ireland, a metaphoric tension is created between the water image and the island image to demarcate the fight in the duel between cruelty and the judgment of God, that will result in the hard years of asylum boarding which the poet was submitted. There, under the mask of Vincent Van Gogh, Antonin Artaud accuses western society does not support the tragic wisdom of delirious bodies, demonstrating that what we call madness, nothing more than the power of the crazy thought, taken by the temptation to become, each time the existence of Cruelty in front of him is naked until take him to suicide limit.

Sessenta e oito anos ap?s a sua morte seus escritos continuam sendo lan?ados. Artaud escrevia compulsivamente sobre diversos assuntos, lan?ando pseud?podes em tantas dire??es quantos eram seus interesses, alguns dos quais se ramificavam e se desenvolviam, enquanto outros adormeciam esperando desdobramentos que, por vezes, vinham ou n?o. Teatro, cinema, poesia, literatura, filosofia, hist?ria, pintura e desenho eram alguns dos seus temas de reflex?o. A incurs?o pela chamada s?tima arte, por exemplo, foi um dos projetos interrompidos pelo franc?s de Marselha. Deixou poucos - mas profundos - textos sobre o assunto, variando entre o encantamento e o des?nimo. Atuou em vinte e dois filmes e deixou sete roteiros, dos quais apenas um foi filmado. Relativamente curta (1923-1935), mas consistente, a carreira de Artaud pelo cinema ? ainda pouco analisada, sendo mais conhecidas suas propostas para o teatro, principalmente a no??o de Teatro da Crueldade. ? a partir dela que responderemos a algumas quest?es: Artaud elaborou uma no??o de crueldade para al?m do teatro? ? poss?vel pensar a cultura da crueldade para o cinema? Podemos refletir sobre o sujeito contempor?neo a partir dessa abertura? A ideia de crueldade pensada pela chave do cinema prop?e estabelecer uma nova rela??o do sujeito contempor?neo com a imagem, o corpo e o pensamento, no sentido de abrir um outro canal de di?logo com a cultura e resgatar a pot?ncia inexplorada da arte como meio de se posicionar frente ao mundo e aos desafios que ele diariamente nos coloca. / Antonin Artaud (1896-1948) est un po?te, acteur, dramaturge et ?crivain fran?ais n? ? Marseille, mais dont la vie artistique se d?veloppe principalement ? Paris. Artaud est l'auteur de la notion bien connue de Th??tre de cruaut?, qui inspire encore aujourd'hui de nombreux groupes de th??tre dans diff?rents coins du monde. Il a ?crit sur le th??tre, la po?sie, l'art, la philosophie, entre autres. De 1924-1935 est ?galement d?di? au cin?ma, ? la fois dans son th?orique et pratique. Une ?tape un peu inconnu et peu explor? dans sa vie. Elle a jou? dans 22 films avec certains des r?alisateurs les plus importants dans le monde, et a laiss? huit sc?narios, dont un seul a ?t? realiz?, et huit ?crits th?oriques sur le cin?ma. Cette th?se cherche ? examiner pr?cis?ment cette p?riode insuffisamment ?tudi? dans sa carri?re, ? partir de trois questions initiales: Artaud d?velopp? un sens de la cruaut? au-del? du th??tre? Nous pouvons penser ? la culture de la cruaut? envers les films, en d?autres termes, un cin?ma de la cruaut? ? Nous pouvons penser sur le sujet contemporain de cette culture? La r?ponse ? ces trois questions est oui. L'id?e de la pens?e de la cruaut? au cin?ma est intervenue concomitamment ? leurs exp?riences et ?laborations de ce qu'il a appel? Th??tre de la cruaut?. Les deux r?flexions sont donn?s concomitamment et de mani?re r?cursive. Plus que cela, toutes ses productions artistiques, dont la po?sie et la peinture, ont ?t? travers?s par la notion de cruaut?. Nous concluons que leurs ?laborations sur un cin?ma de la cruaut? a et? interrompu au moment m?me que le d?veloppement technique a soulign? la possibilit? de sa r?alisation. De plus, ? l'enqu?te de son travail, nous pouvons voir que presque toute sa pens?e a ?t? pr?par? sous les images, de sorte que nous pouvons m?me parler d'une pens?e cin?matographique d?Antonin Artaud. En cons?quence, nous ne concevons pas sa th?orie au septi?me art comme secondaire ? leurs int?r?ts, comme le rapporte la plupart de ses commentateurs, mais absolument essentiel dans le d?veloppement de ses ?crits, qui jusqu'? maintenant accumul? plus de deux mille pages. En outre, Artaud ne pense pas l'art pour l'art, mais seulement comme un dialogue fructueux et intensif avec l'homme et la culture. L?art ?tait l'instrument privil?gi? de proposer un diagnostic et une nouvelle fa?on de voir la soci?t? contemporaine. ? travers le film il a imagin? la possibilit? d'une reprise de forces ?thico-esth?tique-politiques perdus sous les d?combres de la civilisation occidentale. L'?tablissement d'une nouvelle relation avec l'image, le sujet de la (post-) modernit? pourrait sauver une puissance esth?tique du corps et de la pens?e que, r?interpr?t?, agiraient envers eux-m?mes et le monde ? r?inventer.
