Este artigo tem por objetivo verificar a reatualização do mito do andrógino no romance Bel-ami (1885), do escritor francês Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893). O mito pode ser pensado em consonância com a busca pela perfeição, a qual se liga à unidade primordial. No romance, essa unidade afigura-se na busca pelo outro, ser que, embora tenha uma existência autônoma, constitui-se como a metade que falta para completar a existência do amado. Essas questões são tratadas no romance de modo peculiar, evidenciando o pessimismo de Maupassant, para quem é impossível a realização do amor ideal. 2013-08-01 2022-03-18T18:38:10Z 2022-03-18T18:38:10Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/lettres/article/view/6088 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/63590 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/lettres/article/view/6088/4555 Copyright (c) 2013 Lettres Françaises application/pdf Lettres Françaises Lettres Françaises; n.13 (2), 2012 2526-2955 1414-025X |
