A Literatura como Pensamento Crítico: Experiências Estético-Cognitivas em torno de Pandemias Ficcionais
Resumo
O presente artigo de síntese pretende reflectir sobre a forma como textos literários, políticos e religiosos têm, ao longo dos século, representado, ou ficcionado de modo, quer realista, quer fantasioso, pandemias alegóricas e as suas causas e consequências. O desafio para falar sobre pensamento crítico, literatura e política nas literaturas portuguesa e inglesa levou-nos, em plena quarentena, a decidir reeditar, nesta revista brasileira, um texto sobre pandemias literárias, partindo de um artigo mais curto que publicamos originalmente na imprensa portuguesa (Puga 2020).
