Abstract (lang="eng")
In this analysis of "A força do destino," the novel is seen to incorporate not only Verdi's opera, but also the very author in its texture, in which anachronistic elements coexist naturally with the story and its characters. In this analysis, what stands out most are the transgressive aspects of the compositional techniques employed by Nélida Piñón, such as her interpretations of the concept of fictionality, the role of the narrator, the intratextual and intertextual relationships, and the processes of metafiction. What stands out next are the transgressions of sexuality celebrated by the text, associated primarily with the countours of lesbian literature, with its limitless boundaries and identities, and its sapphic voice. This work also analyzes the representation of masculine homosexuality and the hints of incest that go beyond the thematic level and permeate the work's textuality. These two transgressive dimensions are constantly imposed on the structure and effects of opera as a genre.
Abstract (lang="por")
Na análise de ‘A força do destino’, romance que incorpora não só a ópera de Verdi, mas a própria autora na sua tessitura, em que as anacronias convivem com naturalidade no plano da história e das personagens, destacam-se, num primeiro momento, os aspectos transgressivos das opções compositivas de Nélida Piñon, tais como sua revisão do conceito de ficcionalidade, do papel do narrador, da relação intratexto-intertexto e dos processos de metaficção. Num segundo momento, examinam-se as transgressões da sexualidade celebradas pelo texto, associadas principalmente às formas da literatura lésbica, com sua ilimitação de fronteiras e identidades e sua voz sáfica. Também a representação do homossexualismo masculino é discutida e as sugestões de incesto que ultrapassam o universo temático para impregnar a própria textualidade. Essas duas dimensões transgressivas são constantemente projetadas sobre a estrutura e efeitos da ópera como gênero.
