Spiritus Mundi: Ensaios sobre literatura, mito e sociedade

Spiritus Mundi: Ensaios sobre literatura, mito e sociedade
Os mitos e metáforas da literatura moldam e refletem o mundo em que se desenrola a vida humana. Este não é apenas o simples mundo natural, partilhado com os demais seres vivos. É antes um universo sutil e profundo, feito dos medos e esperanças dos homens, o mundo "mitológico", mas tão real que é compartilhado tanto por povos primitivos quanto por intelectuais refinados. Ao dar-se conta da existência dessa realidade, o renomado crítico literário Northrop Frye buscou responder a seguinte pergunta: não seria a literatura mais do que simples fruto da mentalidade de uma época, um fenômeno sociológico, político ou de origens psicológicas e inconscientes? Em Spiritus Mundi, Frye nos apresenta a sua grande descoberta: a literatura como continuação da mitologia, fruto do "hábito mitológico da mente". Nesta reunião de doze ensaios perpassando temas que vão desde as humanidades na vida universitária às ilustrações de William Blake para o livro de Jó, passando pelo papel do livro na sociedade, Northrop Frye revisita sua trajetória pessoal de maneira que o leitor pode acompanhar a origem de seu pensamento e encontrar uma síntese de suas ideias. O fio condutor da obra é o estudo do universo mitológico em que a literatura se desenvolve, sem o qual a liberdade humana não pode florescer.

Elogio da Literatura - A Imaginação Cultivada
Originalmente publicadas sob o título Educated Imagination e dirigidas a todos os «consumidores de literatura», o conjunto de palestras que formam este volume explora o valor e usos da literatura no nosso tempo. Neste livro intemporal, Frye argumenta que a imaginação deve ser cultivada não só para podermos fruir as grandes obras de arte, mas para podermos reivindicar as mais básicas capacidades humanas em todo o seu esplendor. No entanto, a imaginação, tal como a liberdade, só é operacional se for treinada: só temos liberdade de expressão se tivermos aprendido a usar a linguagem; só temos liberdade de movimentos se tivermos aprendido a andar. Da mesma forma, só podemos valer-nos da imaginação se a tivermos treinado. O grande ginásio da imaginação é a literatura. As propostas de Frye para o ensino da literatura incluem uma ênfase precoce na poesia, a «forma literária central e original», o estudo intensivo da Bíblia e dos clássicos gregos e latinos, uma vez que estes incorporam todos os grandes temas duradouros do homem ocidental, e o estudo das grandes formas literárias: tragédia e comédia, romance e ironia.

La parole souveraine
Ce livre paru en 1990, le dernier qu''ait écrit le critique canadien, constitue la suite du Grand Code (1981, traduction française, Seuil, 1984). L''auteur essaye d''y poursuivre l''étude des relations entre la structure thématique de la Bible, révélée par ses récits et son imagerie, et les conventions et les genres de la littérature occidentale. Dans la première partie, Frye dégage les différents modes de l''expression linguistique, et se demande quelle est la fonction particulière de la littérature dans la société, et sur quoi se fonde l''étrange autorité du langage poétique. Cela l''amène à distinguer entre les intérêts fondamentaux d''une société, qui se reflètent dans ses mythes, et les intérêts secondaires, qui sont d''ordre idéologique. La seconde partie consiste en une série de quatre essais de mythologie comparée, organisée autour des quatre intérêts fondamentaux : faire et créer; aimer; subsister et assimiler l''environnement, échapper à l''asservissement
