Os Sentimentos Atrasam

Rate this book
Os sentimentos atrasam,
as paixões atrasam,
as instituições atrasam,
está tudo a mais, nesse demais sempre a pesar sobre a existência, ela própria uma ideia a mais,
filósofos, sábios, médicos, padres, pouco a pouco, de mansinho e brutalmente, têm-nos feito esta vida falsa
porque não há profundidade nas coisas, não há além, nem mais voragem do que a que formos capazes de lá pôr
já,
sem ideia nem entidade,
sem imanência nem instância,
nada me espera para me pedir contas,
mas eu tenho contas a pedir a alguns ignóbeis
velhos labregos da doutrina,
contas a pedir por retardarem a vida com os seus sentimentos, paixões, instituições.

About the author

Antonin Artaud

286 books805 followers
French surrealist poet and playwright Antonin Artaud advocated a deliberately shocking and confrontational style of drama that he called "theater of cruelty."

People better knew Antoine Marie Joseph Artaud, an essayist, actor, and director.

Considered among the most influential figures in the evolution of modern theory, Antonin Artaud associated with artists and experimental groups in Paris during the 1920s.

Political differences then resulted in him breaking and founding the theatre Alfred Jarry with Roger Vitrac and Robert Aron. Together, they expected to create a forum for works to change radically. Artaud especially expressed disdain for west of the day, panned the ordered plot and scripted language that his contemporaries typically employed to convey ideas, and recorded his ideas in such works as Le Theatre de la cruaute and The Theatre and Its Double .

Artaud thought to represent reality and to affect the much possible audience and therefore used a mixture of strange and disturbing forms of lighting, sound, and other performance elements.

Artaud wanted that the "spectacle" that "engulfed and physically affected" this audience, put in the middle. He referred to this layout like a "vortex," a "trapped and powerless" constantly shifting shape.
