Resumo
Esta tese estuda o sentido do simbolismo religioso da imagem do arquétipo da Grande Mãe ao interpretar a poesia de Cecília Meireles (1901-1964). As imagens da Grande Mãe estão presentes nos escritos de Cecília Meireles bem como o seu simbolismo religioso. Observou-se certa sinto-nia entre maternidade e simbolismo religioso na criação poética ceciliana. O objetivo principal desta tese foi de mostrar qual o sentido do arquétipo da Grande Mãe no simbolismo religioso ao interpretar a poesia de Cecília Meireles. A pesquisa foi bibliográfica focada no grupo de Eranos através do pensamento de Carl Gustav Jung (arquétipo), Paul Tillich (símbolo religioso), Gaston Bachelard (imagem literária), Gilbert Durand (mitocrítica), Mircea Eliade (símbolo). Cecília Mei-reles perdeu sua família prematuramente e foi morar com sua avó Jacinta Garcia Benevides, natural da Ilha de São Miguel (Açores, Portugal). Educada num ambiente de aconchego e amor, ouvia constantemente as histórias contadas pela avó açoriana sobre a Ilha de São Miguel e a da Índia. Além disto, sua babá Pedrina, de forma mágica e divertida, introduziu-lhe no rico folclore brasileiro com suas crendices. Crescida neste ambiente de perdas e sofrimentos, mas amparada por estas duas mulheres, a poeta construiu no interior de seu ser um espaço místico de encontro profundo com sua poesia. A Ilha do Nanja é este espaço místico onde a poeta entra quando quer se desligar das mazelas do mundo. Esta Ilha do Nanja é um refúgio, um regaço acolhedor mater-no onde seu ser encontra com o útero gerador de poesias. É o íntimo do mais íntimo do místico e lírico ceciliano. Cecília Meireles criou sua Ilha do Nanja que para ela é a Ilha de São Miguel transfigurada aos poucos pelo sonho. Além deste simbolismo, observou outros, tais como: a família (mãe, avó, babá – no convívio em casa), santos/santas, Nossa Senhora, a terra. Com esta tese concluiu-se que o arquétipo da Grande mãe é um dos elementos centrais da poesia de Cecília Meireles por causa das perdas humanas, especialmente a figura materna. Mas há de ressaltar que a poeta não ficou apenas presa a esta perda para construir sua fortuna poética. Ela foi muito além conhecendo outros espaços geradores de sua poesia.
This thesis studies the meaning of the religious symbolism in the archetype of the Great Mother to interpret the poetry of Cecilia Meireles (1901-1964). The images of the Great Mother are pre-sent in the writings of Cecilia Meireles as well as its religious symbolism. There is a certain affin-ity between motherhood and religious symbolism in Cecília poetic creation. The main objective of this thesis was to demonstrate the meaning of the archetype of the Great Mother in religious symbolism when the read interpret the poetry of Cecilia Meireles. The bibliographic research was focused on the Eranos’ group through of Carl Gustav Jung (archetypal), Paul Tillich (reli-gious symbol), Gaston Bachelard (literary image), Gilbert Durand (myth-critic), Mircea Eliade (symbol). Cecilia Meireles prematurely lost his family and moved in with his grandmother Jacin-ta Garcia Benavides, born in São Miguel Island (Azores, Portugal). Raised in a cozy and loving environment, she constantly listened to the stories told by the grandmother on the Azorean island of São Miguel and India. Moreover, his nanny Pedrina, magically and funny, introduced her in the rich Brazilian folklore and beliefs. Growing up in this environment of loss and suffering, but supported by these two women, the poet built inside her being a mystic deep space encountering her poetry. The Island Nanja is this mystical place where the poet comes when she want to dis-connect from the ills of the world. This Nanja Island is a refuge, a cozy lap where she founds herself within an uterus generator of poetry. It is the innermost depths of the mystical and lyrical Cecilian. Cecilia Meireles created her Island Nanja which for her is the island of São Miguel slowly transfigured by her dream. Beyond this symbolism, observed others, such as: family (mother, grandparent, babysitter – when living at home), saints, Our Lady, the land. This thesis concluded that the archetype of the Great Mother is one of the central elements of the poetry of Cecilia Meireles because of her loss in life, especially the figure of the mother. But it’s notewor-thy that the poet was not stuck to her loss in order to build her poetic fortune. She went far be-yond, meeting other generators spaces for her poetry.
