SUMMARY:

The objective of this dissertation is to compare the works A poesia em pânico (1939), by Murilo Mendes and A pintura em pânico (1943), by Jorge de Lima, with emphasis on the melancholic traits present in each production. For this, theoretical studies on melancholy have been recovered, especially with regard to the feelings of loss and sadness, inherent in this condition, as Freud (2010) discusses. In this perspective, it was observed that - in both works - melancholy finds its genesis at the moment of rupture with the sacred, when lyrical subjects move away from religiosities. In the books mentioned, melancholic representation is perceived both in the thought of divine punishment and in verses/photomontages in which aspects of self depreciation are evidenced. In addition, it was found that, in A pintura em pânico, the addition of another semiotic system - the photomontage - engenders a new way of catalysing melancholic images, including because the Alagoan dialogues not only with Murilo Mendes, but with other works of art history. Therefore, the fragmented structure - intrinsic to the collage technique - already points to the presence of melancholy. Starobinski (2016) , Freud (2010), Quinet (2006) Costa Lima (2017), Eisenstein (2002) and Friedrich (1978) support the critical-analytical itinerary of this work.
