"Evanira!"e os caminhos da plenitude

This thesis analyzes the text -Evanira!‖, of Guimarães Rosa, from the book Ave, palavra.-Evanira!‖, originally published in a newspaper, is an hermetic text and has a great poetic density; on the other hand, in -Evanira!‖,Rosa follows up the themes that are important for him, such as destiny, love, nostalgia and situations that convey to a comprehension of the absolute meaning.By evoking Plato's myths, the author carry us to another plan through the presentation of images and dreams of a secret universe, where two lovers meet and, despite a -necessary separation‖, they meet again and arise themselves to a less painful surface, in the direction of the -PEAK‖, the happiness.The short story analysis embraces loving meetings as archetypical reenactments to reach transcendence.To accomplish this, I make use of the emblematic Beatriz figure, to the Adam and Eve, Orpheus and Eurydice, Eros and Psyche myths, as well as Plato's myths.Biased by myths, I discuss the contemporaneity in Guimarães Rosa, showing that the language connected to the holy as well as the archetypical issues of the Origin make the author from the state of Minas Gerais a contemporary author and, at the same time, an author beyond his time.In -Evanira!‖,Rosa transgress and resize the traditional literary genres and join the lyric and epic in a radical way.Aiming to develop an analysis of the literary genre of the text, I rely on the book Vita nuova, of Dante, as well as Menina e moça, of Bernardim Ribeiro
