Cada una de las cinco obras de la dramaturga británica Sarah Kane constituye un paso más hacia el abandono de las convenciones dramáticas tradicionales: los personajes se desdibujan, la trama se disuelve y el lenguaje se autonomiza. Suele asumirse que se trata de un viaje literario desde el mundo hacia la mente que coincide con la intensificación de su depresión y culmina con su suicidio. Al dirigir mi atención a dos trabajos antropológicos filosóficamente inspirados que abordan la locura, exploro la plausibilidad de la contrahipótesis de que a lo largo de sus cinco obras se despliega un viaje desde la mente hacia el mundo.

| description |
With each of her five plays British playwright Sarah Kane gets one step closer to abandoning traditional dramatic conventions: the characters fade away, the plots break up, and language becomes autonomous. It is usually assumed this development reflects a literary voyage from the world to the mind that coincides with the intensification of her depression and culminates with her suicide. By directing my attention to two philosophically inspired anthropological works that deal with madness, I explore the plausibility of the counter-hypothesis that what unfolds throughout her five plays is a voyage from the mind to the world. |
