Experiências criativas de ressignificação em Hilda Hilst: uma perspectiva ecofeminista

Abstract

The doctoral thesis aims to analyze the author Hilda Hilst’s literary production in prose, mostly the texts Fluxo-Floema, A obscena senhora D, “Rútilo Nada”, and also her obscene trilogy, coming from a comprehension that expands the ordinary concepts of critics concerning this writer, linked only to a radicality and transgression discourse. In this aspect, the work was guided through a perspective which could problematize the posture found in Hilst’s texts, going beyond what was understood and already known about her production, and, this way, focusing the attention on elements which were inserted in a repertoire of traditionalist and immanentist designations, for example, the house and the family environment. Based on this assumption, it was noticed that the texts built an unusual mechanism of disruption as the idealistic legacy was not ignored by those designations, that is, their force in the existence was known and creative resistance was proposed. This way, Hilst approaches her production in prose to the ecofeminist academic movement, which also proposes an attitude of reframing not only in the environmental sphere, but also in the social and subjective ones. Regarding this, the thesis provides a discussion about the notion of “ecology” and shows how the expansion of its concept was used as a parameter to understand Hilst’s audacious procedure of disruption, taking into account the metaphysic character of the traditionalist constructions.
