Descrição
Resumo:Despite centuries of the gap between contemporary poetry and the famous episode of Plato’s poetry-versus-philosophy quarrel, with the poets’ expulsion from the polis, as he put it in his Republic, the themes of this dispute still remain in poetry. Geraldo Carneiro, a Brazilian contemporary author, in analyzed poems, brings some of these themes, such as the truth matter and the poet’s place, reformulating them under a new perspective – the poet in the contemporary context. In order to analyze how Carneiro uses these references, this work is divided in two parts: the contextualization of the polis Education authority claim by philosophy, as provided by Plato in his arguments to move the poets’ place; and, in the second part, the analysis of three poems of the referred Brazilian poet, who uses the irony to approach these topics. This research, based on literature survey, had as the theoretical framework Plato’s Republic, Aristotle’s Poetic and Os mestres da Verdade na Grécia arcaica, by Marcel Detienne, and, as corpus, the book Poemas Reunidos (2010), by Geraldo Carneiro.
