O IMAGINÁRIO NOTURNO NA POÉTICA DE NARLAN MATOS

Abstract

In forty-one out of the fifty poems that constitute the the literary work Um Alaúde, a Península e Teus Olhos Negros (2017), by Narlan Matos, the word "night(s)" can be found. Through that, one may verify the distinct impulse of a night symbology that permeates all the book. Having said that, the present work aims, through some poems and rooted on theoretical postulates of authors such as Gaston Bachelard and Gilbert Durand, to explore the symbolism of the night and reveal the nocturnal poetic images observed in the aforementioned book, images which seem significant for the poet Narlan Matos, since they permeate the conjuncture of his work.
