O corpo continua a monte e a assombrar: Um tributo a Georg Büchner

Abstract

Will there be in the work of Büchner such a character that so well corresponds to the conceptual structure where human imperfectibility establishes connection with a feeling of irreducible strangeness, here associated with the idea of Nature-God, as Woyzeck? What affects us concerning this character? Indeed what matters is the direct effect of the presence of nature as a misfit in the human domain, while we perceive that there is something we can never know what really is, although it touches us immeasurably. Woyzeck stirs us into his paradoxical behavior at various levels: he wants to be a good man and no longer is a good man; he feels in himself a strange disease that hallucinates and disturbs him; and because he wishes to become a good man, he does not realize that what is happening to him is a deviance in his good nature.
