Everything is History: Cardoso Pires and the intrusive lens
| Resumo: | In this short study, we will try to establish a typology that recognises how Cardoso Pires uses history, past and present, and how it interferes with the narrative, conditioning it explicitly. We have divided the study into four parts, which aim to account for this discursive subtlety: historical theatre? / Satire of the past in Alice mode; present history, intrusive, conditioning the discourse; detective story with history in the background; history glimpsed through an augmentative lens. He is not the author of novels or historical plays as such. However, history is very present in all his works, an intrusive history, which is there, which intrudes on discourses, makes them vulnerable and puts pressure on the characters, without them realising how much they are indebted to the environment and external circumstances that surround them. |
