Cosmogenética em Novalis: uma construção trina de mundo

Abstract

This study enhances the concept of magical idealism in the romantic author Novalis to discuss how it is possible to build three worlds: Magical, Poetic and Confused. It starts with a presumption that is another philosophical ethos, that the ultimate foundation of reality may not be a solid stability, but a perpetual and fluid dynamics, thus perverting its negative meaning and transforming it into an infinitely fruitful field. In this record, there is no anthropological privilege and even the question of the Self as a foundation of reality is perverted, so that alterity and transhumanism are understood as producers of discourse, and, to that extent, legitimate creators of the world. In this sense, the question ”who speaks?” operates as a vector of calling: the soul speaks (magic) to the spirit (poetry), which in turn speaks to the body (confused). As a sound vector for the call of such speeches (which are the semantic field of each world), there is a debate about the fundamental attitudes of this dynamic: worldliness, transmundanism and intermundanism. Such talk is, in fact, a magical territorialization, and here, more than words, language or discourse, the matter of the act of speech takes on an extremely cosmogenetic character, as it is the fairy plasmaic magic of reality. The fictional character is always confused with the historical character, and, in this sense, the importance of the fundamental archetypal scenes that make their call to the inhabitants of each world is discussed: the golden age.
