De quem é o amor? : uma análise da paixão nas três "Cartas I" de Novas Cartas Portuguesas, de Maria Isabel Barreno, Maria Velho da Costa e Maria Teresa Horta, e Água viva, de Clarice Lispector. 2025. 34 f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Letras - Língua Portuguesa e Literaturas), Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2025.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/62248This work focuses on the study of passion as a revolutionary element through the reading of two works: the “Letters I” by Novas Cartas Portuguesas (Barreno, Costa, Horta, 2010) and Água Viva (Lispector, 2020). To carry out the research, the concepts of “passion” for Philosophy (Chauí, 2011 and Lebrun, 1987) and Psychoanalysis (Vieira, 2001) were studied, with the aim of breaking down their meanings and applying them to literature, which It relies on careful reading of texts and subsequent comparison through analysis of excerpts. Furthermore, so that the feminist bias that appears in New Portuguese Letters, the work was based on the chapter “Feminist Criticism” by Lúcia Osana Zolin in the work Literary theory: historical approaches and contemporary trends (Bonicci, Zolin, 2009) and excerpts from the works of Martins (2006) and Cicco (2016), which deal, respectively, with gender issues in New Portuguese Letters and Living Water. Finally, it is realized that this passion is an individual feeling of freedom, but also a collective one.PaixãoNovas Cartas PortuguesasCrítica FeministaÁgua VivaCartasPassionFfeminist CriticismLettersbachelorThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES
