Abstract

This work intends to conduct a study on the show A Engrenagem (1948) of Jean- Paul Sartre, staged in Brazil in 1960, under the direction of Augusto Boal. In this context it is appropriate to mention that I chose as the theme of the research scenario part of A Engrenagem of J.-P. Sartre held by the Grupo Oficina in 1960. the number A Engrenagem tells a story of struggle and controversy, which breaks a revolution that overthrew a dictator of a Latin American country. Jean Aguerra, a former revolutionary, he became a dictator, as fitted pressures peculiar to crush left the gear that he helped create. This research, therefore the main objective is to propose a rereading of the 1960s, through aesthetic experiences and policies of the Grupo Oficina, in light of the Sartrean drama (Jean-Paul Sartre). The first chapter deals with the reconstruction of the historical context of time (years 1950 and 1960) in which the event staged by A Engrenagem and the visit of Jean-Paul Sartre to our country, investigating the reception, impact and influence about ideas as well visit itself, of Sartre, in the middle of Brazilian s intellectual life. The intent of this chapter is to sign them and mark their relationships and overlaps in the historical context of the production of A Engrenagem in 1960. The second chapter deals with analysis of the structure and the proposed theme of the text, as well as the mounting part amid questions of form, content and adaptations. Then seek to recover the historicity of this scenario through its receipt by theater critics at the time. The third chapter discusses the broader relationship between philosophy and literature (fiction of Sartre) in Jean-Paul Sartre addressing the specifics of the Theater of Situations.
