<b>Fernando Pessoa’s Fausto and the concept of Subjective Tragedy

  • Rodrigo Alexandre Xavier Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná
Keywords: Fernando Pessoa, Faust, drama, tragedy, subjectivity.

Abstract

This paper intends to show, in an embryonic format, how Fernando Pessoa embodied the subjective process, presented in all his work through a heteronimic construction, in his writing project of Portuguese Faust. Consistent with the idea of Static Drama, Pessoa’s Fausto sights the construction of an animistic and apathetic tragedy, supported on a discursive monologism and the tragic conception of existence.
