Ensaios para dias felizes: (re)criações dramatúrgicas beckettianas a partir dos princípios estéticos do esgotamento, do esquecimento e do silêncio

Abstract

The present dissertation proposes dramaturgical experiments from an investigation of the work of Samuel Beckett. These experiments are based on the idea of language exhaustion which, according to Deleuze, is an aesthetic mark in the work of Beckettian. Starting from my own experience as a playwright, I attest to my authorial death, I point out the limitations of the model of classical dramaturgy and point out, as an alternative, that theatrical writing incorporates aesthetic principles such as silence, forgetfulness and failure, which were crucial for Beckett to exhaust the language. In the wake of this creative process, there are discussions about the author's death, tiredness in the society of performance and the crisis of drama, which constitute a background to think the course of contemporary dramaturgy.
