Authors

Abstract

The purpose of the text, born from theorical research, is to discuss certain elements of the tragical art in Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy, which includes the mythical characters of Apollo and Dionysius, as well as the link of this philosophy with Guimaraes Rosa's literature, specially through the exercise of comprehending the short story "Darandina". From a hermeneutical approach, the article draws Rosa nearer to Nietzsche, for it points that both affirm the existence; one - Nietzsche - in a more philosophical manner, but also poetically. The other, Rosa, through his literature in which, poetically, the characters make a transgressive use of language. This way, based on Nietzsche's tragical philosophy, it can be affirmed that Rosa's literary work has a certain hue of tragic art.
