A realidade das sensações: uma teoria filosófica e ética no romance A Costa dos Murmúrios, de Lídia Jorge / The Reality of Senses: A Philosophical and Ethic Theory in the Novel A Costa dos Murmúrios, by Lídia Jorge

Resumo: O artigo pretende provar que a valorização das sensações do mundo material como acesso ao real subjaz ao romance A Costa dos Murmúrios, de Lídia Jorge, e aí traduz uma teoria ético-filosófica. O realismo perceptivo de A. D. Smith e o valor cultural das sensações de Nadia Serematakis alicerçam teoricamente este artigo, numa metodologia comparativista, porque semiótico-contextual, comprovando, a partir de vários passos romanescos, que as sensações físicas estruturam e reestruturam a percepção do real: assim os murmúrios de atrocidades silenciadas, cometidas em contexto de Guerra Colonial, ou o verdadeiro “eu” por detrás da máscara de um noivo galante. A memória dos cheiros e cores da boda de Evita, o toque erótico de Luís Alex, serão, por isso, tão reais quanto a visão do sangue derramado de flamingos e das fotos escondidas de moçambicanos massacrados em contexto de Guerra Colonial, transformando a percepção que Evita, isto é, Eva Lobo, tem de Moçambique e do seu noivo Luís Alex e obrigando a reler a verdade do conto inicial inserido no romance, intitulado “Os Gafanhotos”.Palavras-chave: Lídia Jorge; A Costa dos Murmúrios; romance histórico português; Guerra Colonial; Moçambique; sensações; ética.Abstract: The article intends to prove that the valuation of senses as direct access to reality underlies the novel A Costa dos Murmúrios, by Lídia Jorge, and here sustains a ethical-philosophical theory. The perceptual realism by AD Smith and the different cultural valuation of senses by Nadia Serematakis base theoretically this article, following a comparative, semiotic-contextual, methodology, proving, from several novel passages, that physical sensations structure and restructure the perception of reality. As the murmurs from silenced atrocities committed in the context of Colonial War or the real “Me” behind the mask of a charming fiancé. The memory of the smells and colours of Evita’s wedding, the erotic touch of Luís Alex, will therefore be as real as the sight of the blood spilled from flamingos and the hidden photos of Mozambicans massacred in the context of the Colonial War, transforming the perception that Evita, that is, Eva Lobo, has of Mozambique and her fiancé Luís Alex and forcing to reread the truth of the initial tale inserted in the novel, titled “Os Gafanhotos”, The Grasshoppers.Keywords: Lídia Jorge; A Costa dos Murmúrios; Portuguese historical novel; Colonial War; Mozambique; senses; ethics.
