  3. Introdução(em português): por que a poesia sempre fascinou as pessoas? literature classes by vera ceccon - 2011

  4. Bachelard e o sonho • Numa palestra proferida em 1954, em comemoração a seus 70 anos de idade, o grande filósofo Gaston Bachelard(1884–1962) tentava responder esta questão perene, aproximando filosofia e poesia. literature classes by vera ceccon - 2011

  5. Bachelard e o sonho • Advertia, no entanto, que a filosofia, com freqüência se esquece que, antes do pensamento, existe o sonho; que os homens não só pensam, mas, antes disso, imaginam. Antes de idéias claras e estáveis, existem as imagens que brilham e que passam. literature classes by vera ceccon - 2011

  6. Bachelard e o sonho • Ele nos lembra que é preciso dar à devida importância à imaginação, a faculdade mais dinâmica do psiquismo humano. É ela que nos fornece uma função diferente da função da realidade, que é a função da possibilidade, de onde provém a consciência do poeta. • Para Bachelard, o poeta é alguém quedorme acordado, isto é, alguém que nos faz confidências sobre seus sonhos. literature classes by vera ceccon - 2011

  7. Bachelard e o sonho • Em seu sono desperto, o poeta sonha, e nesse seu contato com o sonho e a imaginação, ele nos traz a consciência de sonhar, que é muito mais difícil do que a consciência de pensar, pois sonhar é diferente da lembrança de ter sonhado. literature classes by vera ceccon - 2011

  8. Bachelard e o sonho nas próprias palavras (e voz) de Bachelard • La philosophietraditionelles’occupecommunement de l’homme qui pense, commesil’hommetrouvaittoutesa substance, tout son être, dans la pensée. • A filosofia tradicional se ocupa normalmente do homem que pensa, como se o homem encontrasse toda a sua substância, todo o seu ser, no pensamento. siga a gravação automaticamente ou manualmente literature classes by vera ceccon - 2011

  13. MY HEART LEAPS UP (by William Wordsworth) • My heart leaps up when I behold [observar] • A rainbow in the sky: • So was it when my life began; • So is it now I am a man; • So be it when I shall grow old, • Or let me die! • The Child is father of the Man; • And I could wish my days to be • Bound each to each by natural piety.
