O DISCURSO ARTÍSTICO NO BALLET: MURMÚRIOS DE PEDRO E INÊS

Abstract

The research is inserted in the theoretical studies of Michel Pêcheux and Eni Orlandi. We present, by means of the theoretical deepening and analyses held, the relations between memory and history indicated in the dance spectacle Murmurs of Pedro and Ines, directed by Fernando Duarte, searching for the effects of senses that are constituted in / by the overlapping between the languages. For this purpose, theoretical reflections focused on the intersection between history, memory and art were held under a discursive perspective. We emphasize the importance of the notions about myth, discourse, subject and ideology for the interpretation of a materiality that is constituted by verbal and non-verbal discourses. Therefore, it was possible to reflect on the artistic discourse, pointed out by Neckel (2004), and directed to dance, considering it as a discursive materiality. Our results highlight the importance of discursive studies for understanding creative processes in dance, because, through the interweaving of languages and the formation of artistic discourse, the myth about Inês de Castro has resounded effects of meanings in which the past and the present has been resonated, thus evidencing the memory of a female figure in Portuguese culture.
