Intertextual dialogues and memorial features in A solidão mais funda, by Ângela Vilma

Abstract

ABSTRACT: This article analyzes the poetic production of the book A solidão mais funda, by the author from Bahia Ângela Vilma, from the perspective that there are two movements in the work. In the first, there are poems that try to dialogue with canonical authors, such as Fernando Pessoa, Cecília Meireles, Vinícius de Moraes, Carlos Drummond de Andrade, Manuel Bandeira, among others. In the second, there is a memorialistic trace, heir above all from Herberto Sales, an author whose work the poet had read since her adolescence. For this, we use the concepts of remembrance and reminiscence of Walter Benjamin (1892-1940), according to which the writer's act of remembering comes not only from his recollection, but also articulates memory and creative imagination, which is also treated by Gaston Bachelard (1884-1962). Thus, the poet starts from recollections, consciously or unconsciously: sometimes reconfiguring them according to the imagination of the lyrical self, sometimes fictionalizing them, making the reader live again their subjectivities.
