This dissertation examines modes of citations in Hermann Broch's work Die Schuldlosen. Focusing on the topoi of romanticism and myth, I discuss tensions between Hermann Broch's theoretical arguments and his last literary work. These tensions are an expression and formal manifestation of an auctorial attempt to implement his self-declared principles of literature, such as the creation of epistemological value, the depiction of world totality, and the creation of a new form of expression, a new language, and a new myth. In each chapter, I focus on a different topos relevant to Broch's work Die Schuldlosen. With the help of close readings and a genetic analysis of the work, I demonstrate how Broch creates the unreliable citations that serve his goals. The first chapter illuminates the tension between Broch's theoretical works and Die Schuldlosen concerning the topos of romanticism. In a case study on stone imagery, I ask whether Broch's modes of citing romanticism can be considered a productive intermediate step to creating a new form. I show that Broch's citations can be qualified as unreliable citations, and how structural correspondences intensify their effect on the reader’s experience. The chapter ends with a discussion of the political function of Broch's citations. The second chapter deals with Broch's concept of myth and discusses the tension between Broch's declared intention to develop a new myth and his actual use of existing myths in his works. In two case studies, I trace Broch's citations of the Faust myth and the Don Juan myth. I show that one can understand Broch's specific citations of myth as an experiment to explore how the interruption of a recurring cultural cycle would allow for a new form to develop.

Criticism. Inspired by Hermann Broch's essay Creation litteraire et connaissance and Maurice Blanchot's L'Espace litteraire, $ underline {Cr 'eation, 'ethique et v 'erit 'e}$, Broch et Blanchot questions both the possibility and the necessity for a writer to maneuver within the realm of Fiction (i.e. inevitably the realm of Lies), while following an ethical code of Truth. / Fiction. $ underline {En trompe-l'oeil}$ is a novella about Mance Dussault who, after parting from her lover, is compelled to redefine her own identity, by herself and outside of the gaze of the Other. Her quest is complicated by the fact that she is torn between her passions from the past and her current dreams which are luring her into a state of being never experienced before. Furthermore, the veil of novelty could hide a side of reality darker than suspected.

Contudo, um ponto torna o encontro e o debate inevitáveis: ambas são porta-vozes do esforço humano de provocar olhares e falas sobre o que parece escapar a uma captação imediata da realidade. Ambas têm procurado um diálogo cada vez mais próximo entre elas, apresentando questões, proposições e transgressões sobre a existência humana, ainda que tenham sistemáticas diferentes. Esta tese é resultado de investigações literárias e filosóficas sobre um importante tema da atualidade: os valores humanos. Com o objetivo de verificar se a trilogia Os Sonâmbulos, de Hermann Broch, é um super-romance (Überroman), cuja temática, a degradação dos valores humanos, perpassa toda a sua estrutura, servindo de eixo epistemológico e elucidando a condição sonâmbula de uma época, investigamos a vida do escritor, sua época, o contexto que o influenciou na escrita de Os Sonâmbulos e a estrutura da obra a partir da epistemologia e da estética. Na primeira parte, apresentamos fundamentos filosófico-literários para servirem de referência na leitura sistemática da trilogia e aportes sobre a engenharia de Broch na estruturação do romance. Na segunda parte, expressamos olhares epistemológicos e estéticos sobre a obra, por meio de resumo dos episódios, tendo a degradação de Valores como episteme. Na terceira parte, tomamos a Epistemologia do Romance e a Estética na constituição da obra, expondo a questão do método Serio Ludere e sua aplicação e, finalmente, a questão do narrador-sujeito na configuração da trilogia. A intenção desta tese é especular sobre o que parece ser plausível, a possibilidade de usarmos um romance para cognitivamente nos ajudar na aproximação o mais próximo possível da realidade. ____________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / Philosophy and Literature have differences and similarities in their discourses. However, a master point makes the meeting e the debate something inevitable: both are voices of human effort to provoke views and speeches about what seems to escape the immediate capture of the reality. Both have sought for an increasingly close dialogue, presenting issues, propositions and transgressions on human existence despite of their different systematics. This thesis is the result of literary and philosophical research on an important topic for the present but not exclusive of it: the human values. In order to verify if the trilogy The Sleepwalkers, by Hermann Broch, is a super-romance (Überroman), which the theme of degradation of human values pervades the whole structure, serves as an epistemological axis and elucidates the condition of a sleepwalking time, we investigate the writer's life, the times of his, the context that influenced the writing of The Sleepwalkers, the structure of the trilogy in a epistemological and aesthetics way. In the first part we present some approaches on the philosophical and literary fundaments to be taken as references in a systematic reading of the trilogy as well as some contributions on Broch’s engineering of the novel structure. In the second part we express some epistemological and aesthetic perspectives on the trilogy through a résumé of the episodes considering the degradation of values as its episteme. In the third part we take the Epistemology of Romance and Aesthetics in the constitution of The Sleepwalkers, exposing the issue of Serio Ludere method and its application and, finally, the question of the narrator-subject in the setting of the trilogy. The intention of this thesis is to speculate on what appears to be plausible: the possibility of using a novel to help us cognitively in the closest possibility of approximation to the reality.
