Abstract

This study proposes to expand the comprehension of the concept of drama in the work of Fernando Pessoa, for whom the dramatic factor would determine traces of grand literary creations, as well as of the bases of heteronymy. One of the key intentions of this dissertation is to rethink the equivalence of both terms dramatic poet and dramatist, which were constantly used by the author to make reference to his own creative process. It is stated that Pessoa would have relativized the boundaries between those terms by conceiving at least two different ways of approaching the dramatic form: on the one hand he presupposes the creation of a drama that is situated outside the dramaturgic sphere per se, which would comprise the books, including many different literary genres and a single relation between different authors that were to be compiled in his complete works; on the other hand he engages himself in the composition of dramas, in a strict sense, that escape the common places of the genre by destabilizing traditional categories such as action, dialogue, plot and characters.
