Previous issue date: 2012-01-26 / This thesis aims at investigating, in its first part, how new meanings are produced through the use of Greek myths in the French drama between wars and during World War II, when France was under German occupation. The research focuses on the mythical plays of Jean Giraudoux, Jean Cocteau, Jean Anouilh and Jean-Paul Sartre, in which this dissertation analyzes the tensions between the feeling of absurdity, representative of the time of the two Great Wars and systematized by Albert Camus in The Myth of Sisyphus (1942), and the possibilities of Greek mythology to produce new meanings in a society where myths are reframed, other than those conveyed by the ancient literature, especially the Attic tragedy. Another aim is to propose a mythical interpretation, under the same perspective, to the four plays of the Brazilian writer Nelson Rodrigues written between 1945 and 1949. The comparison reveals differences of meaning in the reframed myths. Although they are written in the same period of time, the plays reflect societies with different historical backgrounds. The first chapter of the thesis discusses relevant concepts for analysis, as myth, tragic and absurd, as well as notions derived from the theory of imaginary. The second chapter, reserved to the study of French plays, examines historical and cultural transformations occurred in France in the 1930s and 1940s, and presents the analysis of the plays written by Giraudoux, Cocteau, Anouilh, and Sartre in the same period, with subjects taken from Greek mythology. The third chapter is devoted to Brazilian history and culture in the same decades, with special emphasis on the Brazilian theater of the period, and the role played by Nelson Rodrigues in this cultural context; and, in individual sections, the four mythical plays of this author are analyzed under the perspective of the reframing of Greek myths. Finally, the conclusion provides a comparison between the plays analyzed and the senses conveyed by the French and the Brazilian mythical drama at the same historical moment. This research is based on the theory of imaginary. Its main references are Gilbert Durand and Gaston Bachelard s writings, with the support, in a transdisciplinary perspective, of the researches on mythology done by Mircea Eliade and Joseph Campbell, and sources from historiography, philosophy and theatrical studies. / O presente trabalho tem o objetivo de investigar, num primeiro momento, como se produzem novos sentidos atrav?s da utiliza??o dos mitos gregos no drama franc?s da ?poca entreguerras e do per?odo em que a Fran?a esteve sob a Ocupa??o alem? devido aos acontecimentos da Segunda Guerra Mundial. O objeto de pesquisa s?o as pe?as m?ticas de Jean Giraudoux, Jean Cocteau, Jean Anouilh e Jean-Paul Sartre, nas quais este trabalho analisa as tens?es entre o sentimento do absurdo, representativo da ?poca das duas Grandes Guerras e sistematizado por Albert Camus em O mito de S?sifo, de 1942, e as possibilidades de a mitologia grega conferir novos sentidos para a sociedade em que os mitos s?o ressignificados, diferentes daqueles veiculados pela literatura antiga, especialmente pela trag?dia ?tica. Em seguida, procede-se uma interpreta??o das quatro pe?as m?ticas do escritor brasileiro Nelson Rodrigues, escritas entre 1945 e 1949, a partir das mesmas perspectivas, levando ? constata??o das diferen?as de sentido promovidas pelas ressignifica??es dos mitos em uma mesma ?poca, em sociedades com experi?ncias hist?ricas diferentes. A tese ? iniciada pela discuss?o de conceitos relevantes para a an?lise, como mito, tr?gico e absurdo, al?m de no??es oriundas da teoria do imagin?rio. O cap?tulo seguinte, reservado ao estudo das pe?as francesas, ? constitu?do por algumas p?ginas introdut?rias dedicadas ?s transforma??es hist?ricas e culturais da Fran?a entre as d?cadas de 1930 e 1940 e pela an?lise das pe?as com temas da mitologia grega escritas por Giraudoux, Cocteau, Anouilh e Sartre no mesmo per?odo. Outro cap?tulo ? destinado ? hist?ria e ? cultura brasileira nos mesmos dec?nios, com especial ?nfase ao teatro brasileiro do per?odo e ao papel desempenhado por Nelson Rodrigues nesse contexto cultural, al?m de, em se??es individuais, analisarem-se as quatro pe?as m?ticas do autor sob o vi?s da ressignifica??o dos mitos gregos. Ao final, a conclus?o estabelece um comparativo entre as pe?as analisadas e os sentidos veiculados pelo drama m?tico franc?s e pelo brasileiro da mesma ?poca. Esta pesquisa ? embasada na teoria do imagin?rio, tendo como principais refer?ncias os escritos de Gilbert Durand e Gaston Bachelard e, como apoio, numa perspectiva transdisciplinar, as pesquisas sobre mitologia empreendidas por Mircea Eliade e Joseph Campbell, al?m de fontes oriundas da historiografia, da filosofia e dos estudos teatrais.
