An initial question guides and sustains our reading journey: What leads Riobaldo to tell his story to a specific interlocutor throughout the entire narrative? With this, we launch ourselves to read a narrative structure that erupts in a dialogical frame, since there are two characters on the scene, but who are not in a dialogue. Complex as it is, the monologue does not entirely encompass the specificity of Riobaldo’s speech, for the presence of the interlocutor is essential for him to be able to address the spoken word. Recognizing in Guimarães Rosa’s novel such a configuration of speech and listening emerges as an invitation to engage in articulations with psychoanalysis. Our hypothesis is that certain psychoanalytic notions—free association, transference, transfer love, and the subject supposed to know—are present within the structure of Riobaldo’s speech, leading him to tell and (re)write his own story. The theoretical framework adopted in this study is interdisciplinary, contemplating theorists from literary criticism, narratology, and Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalytic theory. During the reading, we analyze aspects of the character's storytelling experience that, as it flows, approaches the edges of analytical experience.

To this end, the study adopts as its corpus the novels Ponciá Vicêncio (2017), by the Black Brazilian writer Conceição Evaristo, and Beloved (1987), by the Black African American writer Toni Morrison. Historical gaps concerning Black people have produced silences forged to uphold a patriarchal and racist system that persistently denies the importance of Black women in social formation. Through the interweaving of the concept of rememory, presented by Morrison in Beloved, and escrevivência, a concept coined by Evaristo (2005), the novels construct fictional narratives committed to exposing not only the atrocities of the period of enslavement but also Black and female resistance in Brazil and the United States.As a specific objective, this study examines how Black female subjectivity is inscribed in these works through the articulation of these concepts. To this end, the notion of escrevivência is analyzed as life-writing, grounded in the understanding that the particularities of Black womanhood—shaped in the narratives by the tragedy of slavery—constitute the raw material for rememoration. Accordingly, this research engages with studies on themes such as motherhood, affect, enslavement, and corporeality as a site of memory. The analysis is enriched by theoretical contributions from scholars such as Leda Maria Martins (2003), who discusses the concept of spiraled time; Lélia Gonzalez (1984), with reflections on race and gender; and Oyèrónkẹ́ Oyěwùmí (2021), who offers a critical perspective on the construction of female identities in postcolonial contexts. Additionally, Michel-Rolph Trouillot’s (2016) reflections on the production of history and the significance of silenced voices, as well as Paul Ricoeur’s (2007) discussions of memory and narrative, are fundamental to contextualizing the debates proposed herein. This study aims to contribute to Black studies, Comparative Literature, and related fields by addressing the intersectional discrimination experienced by Black women.

It then seeks to show how this particular mode of attention suggests a kind of symphony of Being, insofar as listening, nuanced in relation to the other senses, is designated for metaphorizations that engage with the exploration of subjectivity and refined perceptions. Furthermore, the study aims to demonstrate how this musical apprenticeship, by articulating memory, perception, and imagination, anticipates the discovery of the Narrator’s vocation, emphasizing the singular capacity of music to unveil the ineffable, enabling the Narrator to see in depth, thereby revealing to him the reality that will ultimately unfold in his literary creation. From a broader perspective, the dissertation also seeks to demonstrate how the narrative structure of the Recherche maintains a profound homological relationship with the phenomenological structure of music, allowing the meaning of proustian sentences to unfold as an echo of a sense, that is, through their resonance. This effect is reinforced by the polyphonic aspect of the narrative voices, which, in an overlapping structure, are inscribed through a true fusion of time, always under the register of music as presence. The study thus highlights the singular capacity of music to make the inexpressible perceptible, establishing it as a central element of the literary and aesthetic experience in Proust.

La recherche prend le geste même d’écrire comme fil conducteur de l’analyse : écrire comme geste d’amour, de deuil devant la mort, de présence et de dissolution, à l’instar des manuscrits de Cixous et Barthes consultés à la Bibliothèque nationale de France. En suivant ces gestes, la thèse réfléchit à la manière dont l’écriture s’entrelace en fils continus, où vie et mort, présence et absence, mémoire et corps se connectent, constituant un tissu perpétuel de sens en mouvement perpétuel. Les manuscrits apparaissent ainsi comme des espaces d’inscription de l’amour et du deuil, et l’écriture comme geste capable de perpétuer des relations affectives et éthiques entre mots, corps et mémoire.; The present dissertation, “Fragment of Love and Mourning: the Perpetual Fabric of Writing by Hélène Cixous and Roland Barthes”, proposes to construct a fabric of the authors’ writing based on the image of the silkworm, evoked by Jacques Derrida, as a figure connecting love and mourning in a fabric that becomes body. The research takes the act of writing itself as the guiding gesture of analysis: writing as a gesture of love, mourning, presence, and dissolution, as manifested in the manuscripts of Cixous and Barthes consulted at the Bibliothèque nationale de France. By tracing these gestures, the dissertation examines how writing intertwines in continuous threads, where life and death, presence and absence, memory and body converge, constituting a perpetual fabric of meaning in constant motion. The manuscripts thus reveal themselves as spaces of inscription of love and mourning, and writing as a gesture capable of perpetuating affective and ethical relations between word, body, and memory.
