O corpo abjeto e suas conectividades no cinema contemporâneo

Abstract

The objective is to investigate how the schematization of the body as a locus of a conflicting, mediation and manifestation, of a body of otherness, a body that bothers, the abject body and its condition as a relational basis, has taken place in contemporary cinema. They found thoughts, concepts and achievements, ranging from literature and philosophical thought, to cinema, more specifically, in David Cronenberg, Michael Haneke, Claire Denis and Leos Carax. The period in which the research is delimited is focused from the mid-1970s (approx. 1975) to the present day, as it is understood that this period comprises a moment of aesthetic-creative unity experienced by the aforementioned directors, as well as several phenomena that contextualize, often in a basic way, the themes, forms and aesthetic options observed in the works of the directors in question, in addition to having been also, not by chance, in which the concept of the abject body was developed more intensely, from , mainly by Julia Kristeva, with resonances in Judith Butler. It is intended to carry out a specific analysis of the concepts of body, abject body, embodiments, changing body and its relations with violent ethos and sexuality, within contemporary cinema, contextualizing it with scientific/artistic/cultural production, specifically that focused on thought from the body, from bodily changes, from the relationship between body and technology, the desire over the body. The aesthetic organism used by the directors will not be neglected, since it is understood that this is part of the construction of the discourse about the body and its resonances in important thinkers such as KRISTEVA, DELEUZE, GIL, ECO, BUTLER, BRETON, among others
