Description
Summary:This paper intends to investigate the relations between philosophy and literature from the perspective of literary criticism. In order to do that, one considers two different moments in critique: (i) the methodological contribution in Brazilian criticism, especially in the work of Benedito Nunes; (ii) the response that the portuguese essayism (Eduardo Lourenço and Fidelino de Figueiredo) gives to the subject of thinking and feeling the world, articulators of poetry (art) and thought (philosophy). By arguing that the exchange between subject fields happens through the construction of an intersectional space, it is possible for us to problematize categories used by criticism, such as the philosophy of literature or philosophical poetry, and to verify the extent to which they are valid.
