Caracterização : a obra de arte crítico-literária

Charakteristik : the masterpiece of literary criticism

  • Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel (1772-1829) compreendia a "Charakteristik" como uma obra de arte da crítica literária, na qual tanto os aspectos extrínsecos quanto os intrínsecos deveriam ser levados em consideração e compreendidos como uma unidade. De acordo com essa teoria, a tarefa do crítico de literatura era revelar a tendência e o ideal da obra literária através da observação e compreensão de certos aspectos que pertenceriam tanto à letra quanto ao espírito da obra, ou que poderiam transitar entre esses dois âmbitos. O intuito principal desse artigo é introduzir e discutir alguns aspectos da "Filosofia da caracterização" de Schlegel, exposta em seus "Fragmente zur Poesie und Literatur", os "Fragmentos sobre poesia e literatura" (1793-1803), e demonstrar como o crítico alemão concretizou sua teoria no "Meister-Aufsatz", o "Ensaio sobre os anos de aprendizado de Wilhelm Meister", de Johann Wolfgang Goethe, de 1798.
  • Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel (1772-1829) regarded the "Charakteristik" as a masterpiece of literary criticism in which both the extrinsic and intrinsic aspects of the literary work should be taken into consideration and understood as an unity. According to this theory, the task of literary criticism was to reveal the tendency and the ideal of the work of literature through the observation and understanding of several aspects which belonged either to the letter or to the spirit of the work, or that might even transit between these two realms. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce and to discuss some aspects of Schlegels Philosophy of Characterization, as it is exposed in his "Fragmente zur Poesie und Literatur", the "Literary Notebooks", (1793-1803), and to demonstrate how the German critic concretized his theory in his "Meister-Aufsatz", the "Characterization of Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship", from 1798.
