Oscar Wilde, Cultura Material, Dramaturgia Artesanal, Performatividade, Identidade, TeatralidadeResumo
As comédias de sociedade de Oscar Wilde são reconsideradas à luz da cultura material e da artesania teatral. Ao tratar Wilde não apenas como dramaturgo, mas como um artesão que forjou identidades por meio de objetos, argumento que adereços, figurinos e convenções cênicas em Lady Windermere’s Fan, An Ideal Husband e The Importance of Being Earnest funcionam como agentes de subversão e não como meros acessórios decorativos. Longe de serem ornamentais, os objetos no teatro de Wilde tornam-se centrais para a desestabilização de gênero, moralidade e verdade social. Seus contemporâneos frequentemente não reconheceram as implicações radicais dessa dramaturgia, descartando seus epigramas e adereços como triviais. No entanto, esses mesmos recursos antecipam teorias modernas de performatividade e da agência das coisas.
