Abstract

ABSTRACT The article combines efforts to read Lume’s aesthetic based on possible philosophical connections supported by the notion of temporal enlargement and the Freudian concept of oceanic feeling. The philosophical-conceptual methodology was used to this end. The ideas of composition, fluctuation and saturation plane, delirium, the dissolution of borders and a sense of holistic connection stood out. Presence was the articulating element of Lume’s aesthetic, which is framed by the aforementioned conceptual principles. By exposing two possible receptions, the text intends the comparison with such knowledge to add layers of expansion to the theatrical aesthetic experience, not aiming to reveal meanings, but rather to propose intelligibilities.

Highlights

RÉSUMÉ – La Présence dans l’Œuvre de Lume comme Prolongation du Temps et Sentiment Océanique – L’article rejoint les efforts pour lire l’esthétique de Lume basée sur d’éventuelles connexions philosophiques soutenues par l’expansion temporelle et le concept freudien du sentiment océanique
If in purely epistemic terms we find evident discontinuities between such concepts, it seems interesting to notice that the hybridism of the theatrical scene proposed by Lume enables the occurrence of contagion and blurring, expanding the aesthetic borders of experience and allowing us to appreciate these diverse knowledges together
We give ourselves license to intervene reflectively from a perspective informed by the fields of philosophy and psychoanalysis, even in elements that are not original to these knowledges, as is and Oceanic Feeling the case of theatrical practice

La présence était l’élément d’articulation de l’esthétique de Lume avec les composantes conceptuelles mobilisées. RESUMO – A Presença no Trabalho do Lume como Alargamento Temporal e Sentimento Oceânico – O artigo reúne esforços para ler a estética do Lume a partir de possíveis conexões filosóficas com suporte no alargamento temporal e no conceito freudiano de sentimento oceânico. A presença foi o elemento articulador da estética do Lume com os componentes conceituais mobilizados. A body-in-life dilates the actor’s presence and the spectator’s perception (Barba; Savarese, 1995, p. 54)
