A cidade, a poltrona e a linha: estudos sobre a estética do frio, de Vitor Ramil

Abstract

This work focuses on The Aesthetics of the Cold, created by the composer, singer and writer Vitor Ramil, having the reading of his book Satolep as a starting point, although not the only one. This research emphasizes recurrent aspects addressed by the author throughout his work, especially regarding his hometown, subjectivity and discourse. The investigation identifies and intends to deepen three questions. The first refers to placement, since it investigates the relationship between the city and discourse. The second question is When we knock on a door in Satolep, who answers it? This is the question which recommends the investigation on subjectivity. The third question refers to the discourse being used, and aims at guiding the investigation about a peculiar enunciative mode found in Ramil s work and which will be called, in this work, escaiola-discourse . All these questions are traversed by concepts from different areas of knowledge as well as based on principles from Pêcheux s Discourse Analysis theory. Through this work, we expect to bring this singular and enthralling path of contemporary Brazilian literary creation, The Aesthetics of the Cold by Vitor Ramil, to the academic realm of discourse studies
