| description | The novel L’Ève Future (1886) by the French writer Villiers de L’Isle- Adam is an important piece of symbolism and opposed to artistic forms of realism and naturalism. This is an extensive and complex work, which presents issues dear to the writer. Different genres can be distinguished in the novel of the late nineteenth century, however The Future Eve is distinguished from its contemporaneous Romanesque productions. The novel can be associated with the decadent novel by the cult of the artificial, and the advance science fiction novel, and by the evocation of Edison’s inventions. Not only can it be considered a fantastic or science fiction narrative, because there is the creation of an artificial woman with the purpose of replacing the real woman, but also a philosophical work as it reflects on the appearance and the essence of beings. In an unusual and ironic style, Villiers raises questions regarding the true illusion and reality, reflecting on the human condition. |

O romance L’Ève Future (1886), do escritor francês Villiers de L’Isle- Adam, é uma importante obra do final do século XIX e opõe-se às formas artísticas do realismo e naturalismo. Esta é uma obra extensa e complexa, que apresenta questões caras ao escritor. É possível distinguir gêneros diferentes no romance do final do século XIX, e, de fato, L’Ève future difere bastante das produções romanescas contemporâneas a ela. O romance pode ser associado ao romance decadente, pelo culto do artificial, e ao romance de antecipação cientifica, pela evocação das invenções de Edison. Pode-se dizer que é uma narrativa fantástica ou de ficção cientifica, pois há a criação de uma mulher artificial, cuja finalidade é substituir a mulher real, mas também é uma obra filosófica, pois medita sobre a aparência e a essência dos seres. Em um estilo insólito e irônico, Villiers coloca questões relativas à ilusão do verdadeiro e à realidade, refletindo sobre a condição humana. 2016-02-29 2022-03-18T18:38:19Z 2022-03-18T18:38:19Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/lettres/article/view/8399 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/63643 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/lettres/article/view/8399/5656 Copyright (c) 2016 Lettres Françaises application/pdf Lettres Françaises Lettres Françaises; n.16 (1), 2015 2526-2955 1414-025X |
