SUMMARY:

This work identifies, in the fifth narrative of Nove, Novena (1994), by Osman Lins, originally published in 1966, the Mysteries that shape its poetic fabric, stitched together in patches of sanctity. The objective is to analyze the intertwining of the narrative excerpts of the Santa Joana Carolina Altarpiece¸ echoed by the voices that alternate in the midst of the heroine’s silence – revealing the spirituality of the “rosary with which she prayed her whole life for those she loved and for those who persecuted her”. Observing the structural pillars (visual, spiritual and scenic) of the plot - in which the marks of the Middle Ages and the Baroque traces pulsate, contrasting with the modernity of the Osmanian narrative -, the instance of the word stands out as the definitive foundation, configuring the gesture creator of the literary text and whose semantic force extends to the correlation with the act of the Creator in the Western Christian cosmovision. In a comparative perspective, the approximation between the studies on Literature and Spirituality configures the theoretical basis of this work, whose methodological contributions are based on the phenomenological dimension of philosophical thought, particularly research in the areas of Philosophy of Religion and Theology; in the contributions of Literary Theory, notably the thoughts of José Ortega y Gasset, Alfredo Bosi, Otto Maria Carpeaux and Ernest Curtius, among others; and consultation of specialized Dictionaries, such as the Dictionary of Spirituality, organized by Ancilli, which also appears as an important support for the development of this thesis. Instigated by the astonishment caused to the main tormentor of the protagonist, which he himself characterizes as his “share of astonishment in a poor life of Mystery”, I propose a reading of the corpus that examines the state of sanctity of the main character, considering theological, dogmatic and catechetical texts on the processes of canonization conducted by the Catholic Church, and that is not averse to the breath of transcendence and existential immateriality.
