Resumo
Esta dissertação se propõe a analisar ressonâncias entre a ‘Patafísica de Alfred Jarry e alguns elementos da filosofia de Gilles Deleuze, inclusive em parceria com Félix Guattari. O intuito da pesquisa foi investigar a função da criatividade no pensamento filosófico. Partiu-se de O que é filosofia?, em que Deleuze e Guattari identificam o pensamento como criação, seja em sua expressão conceitual, funcional ou sensível, isto é, enquanto filosofia, ciência e arte. E também de Artimanhas e Opiniões de Dr. Faustroll, patafísico, em que Jarry apresenta a ‘Patafísica, ciência de soluções imaginárias dedicada ao estudo das leis que regem as exceções, uma proposição estética de cunho cientificista que apresenta uma dinâmica muito próxima da imagem rizomática do pensamento. A dissertação está estruturada como um percurso em que a criatividade é abordada no nível sócio histórico, no nível biográfico, no nível da linguagem e no nível cognitivo. São pontuados: o reconhecimento do paradigma estético, a atuação de Jarry na arte, os personagens conceituais da ‘Patafísica e sua formulação teórica, a função do experimentalismo de estilo nas escritas de Deleuze e de Jarry, alguns conceitos de Deleuze e Guattari que propiciam a abordagem da ontologia da diferença, e, por fim, a cognição inventiva. Constatou-se que, ao questionar a imagem dogmática do pensamento, Deleuze desvencilha verdade e recognição; identificando a verdade, enquanto nexo entre modos heterogêneos de existência, à percepção da diferença. Reaproximando o pensamento do sensível, Deleuze legitima relações conceituais não discursivas e não racionais, e promove a convergência entre conceitos, perceptos e afectos. Neste sentido, a arte é importante à filosofia deleuziana por induzir a atenção a voltar-se ao singular do fenômeno antes de submetê-lo à recognição. Ao enfatizar as exceções, Jarry se contrapõe aos referenciais que organizam a realidade por pressupostos; e oferece uma abordagem singular do fenômeno, desvencilhado de essencialidade ou causalidade, como epifenômeno. O que levou Deleuze a abordar a ‘Patafísica em dois artigos curtos, em que a caracteriza pela superação da metafísica e pela antecipação da fenomenologia. Alguns dos elementos que se tornariam relevantes à filosofia deleuziana foram também intuídos por Jarry no início do século XX, como o caos, o virtual, as linhas de fuga e, sobretudo, a atenção à diferença. A busca pela lógica dos movimentos aberrantes e pelas leis que regem as exceções evidencia a convergência entre seus projetos. Conclui-se que o ponto de maior ressonância entre os autores é a proeminência atribuída à criatividade, identificada como aspecto intrínseco ao funcionamento do pensamento por atuar desde a cognição inventiva.
This dissertation analyzes resonances between Alfred Jarry's 'Pataphysics and some elements of Gilles Deleuze's philosophy, including in partnership with Félix Guattari. The purpose of the research was to investigate the role of creativity in philosophical thinking. It started with What is philosophy? in which Deleuze and Guattari identify thought as creation, whether in its conceptual, functional or sensitive expression, that is, as philosophy, science and art. And also with Exploits and Opinions of Dr. Faustroll, pataphysician, in which Jarry presents 'Pataphysics, the science of imaginary solutions dedicated to the study of the laws that govern exceptions, an aesthetic proposition with some scientific aspects that presents a dynamic close to the rhizomatic image of thought. The dissertation is structured as a path in which creativity is approached at the socio-historical level, at the biographical level, at the language level and at the cognitive level. The following are punctuated: the recognition of the aesthetic paradigm, Jarry's artistic career, the conceptual characters of 'Pataphysics and its theoretical formulation, the role of style experimentalism in Deleuze's and Jarry's writings, some concepts by Deleuze and Guattari that approach the ontology of difference, and inventive cognition. It was found that, by questioning the dogmatic image of thought, Deleuze separates truth from recognition, identifies truth as a nexus between heterogeneous modes of existence, as the perception of difference. Reapproximating thought to the sensible, he legitimates non-rational and non-discursive conceptual relations, and promotes convergence between concepts, percepts and affections. In this sense art is important to Deleuze’s philosophy, because it induces the attention to face the singularity of the phenomenon before submitting it to recognition. By emphasizing the exceptions, Jarry opposes the referentials that organize reality by presuppositions, and offers a unique approach to the phenomenon, detached from essentiality or causality, as epiphenomenon. This led Deleuze to address 'Pataphysics in two short essays, in which he characterizes it as the overcoming of metaphysics and the anticipation of phenomenology. Some of the elements that would become relevant in Deleuzian philosophy were also intuited by Jarry in the early twentieth century, such as chaos, virtual, lines of flight and, above all, attention to difference. The search for the logic of aberrant movements and for the laws that govern the exceptions reveal the convergence between their projects. It is concluded that the point of greater resonance between the authors is the prominence attributed to creativity, identified here as an intrinsic aspect of thought acting since the inventive cognition.
