Resumo de The Great Fool - Fernando Sabino

In this romance of 1979, the Author elaborates a tram with the clear intention to homage the humble, simple and pure people. Already in the epigraph of the narrative, "All that one, therefore, that if to make small as this boy, this will be the greater in the kingdom of skies.". it is noticed will to raise the pure ones, the innocents and the ingenuouses. In the line of the picaresca novel - vide the Dom Quixote de La Spot, of Cervantes -, where the personage dislocates itself for an indefinite space, to the search of the conflicts, to decide them heroicamente, Viramundo lives a sequence of peripécias happened in the State of Minas Gerais, contracenando with personages of the most varied shades and behaving always as the well-meaning one, the pure one, the ingenuous submitted to the cunnings and badnesses of a world that of all is still not decided. Andarilho, insane person, dispossessed, vagabond, idealistic. Delinquent in a society that does not understand and where not fits, the Viramundo restores a feeling of ternura and penalty for all those that, in its simplicity, suffer the indifference, the irony, the oppression and the great power. As the Quixote, with its loved Dulcinéia, and as Dirceu, with its adored Marília, Viramundo it puts in its tresvariadas action the hope to become fullfilled itself emotionally with its idealized and inalcançável Marília, son of the governor of Minas Gerais. Its alucinada illusion is strengthened by the pseudo friends who deceive it with false letters of love and stimulate its tame madness and its impossible dream. Viramundo knows that the world is a great metaphor and deals it with idealismo as if it was real. To fix the world is its mission and it if it with all dedicates the force of its decision, if not leaving to shake for failure, ridicule, the violence or the vitupério. In its delirium, unreal and the Real walks of given hands, it does not have the separation between the concrete and the abstract, and therefore the hero emotionally does not shake physics or with nothing with that if opposite: he does not fear the forts, the violent ones; he does not scare yourself with ghosts and nor with threats; accepted resignadamente what the life it reserve. It is perceived here that, beyond pícaro, our hero can be considered as bufão, therefore is stupidly boasted on supposed capacities to decide the injustices and the mistake of the world. It does not have any definitive linking with the life; it does not assume commitments; he is rejected and used for those with which if it relates. The pureness of this adventurer is critical to the hypocrisy of the relations the human beings in a world that lost the direction of solidarity and the fraternity. Its ingenuous and disinterested joy opposes it the rude game of the mortally wounded interests, to the conservadorismo and the arrogance. Spokesman of the insane people, the beggars, the prostitutes, the Viramundo knows the meandros of the enganação and the falseness of the politicians and the powerful ones. The critical one to the mesmice, the chavão and the cliche becomes for the presence of the parody to many authors and personages historicamente known. Viramundo was not known, but it finishes for creating fame in reason of the incredible cases where if it involves. Under the dirty appearance of a beggar it is a citizen with uncommon general culture. Its says of man expert surprises and its former-seminarista former-military man and experience confuse and admire those with who coexist. Its ready esquisitice and its answers to all the investigations make with if it believes to be about a tame and harmless insane person. Another interesting aspect is the exploration of the thematic one of madness. The Author seems to invite the reader to a reflection on the origin and the conviviality with the idea of the eccentricity of the human behavior. Viramundo can be considered an insane person, but who it is not? What the society considers madness? How to classify and to treat the individuals that act in dissonância with what normality is considered? The society shown in the romance is populated with types that comumente we call insane people: the inhabitants of Mariana desvairadamente act when trying to lynch Dª. Peidolina; the director of the hospice is more strange than proper internosdo lunatic asylum; captain Batatinhas is absolutely mentally ill. The questioning of the fragility of the limits between the health and madness has during all the narrative. In the threshold of the consumption of walked its, Viramundo moved. In the start he was idealistic and full of the cometimentos of the passion. It was remained thus during much time until facing the hard reality of the convivência human being. The series of events where figure as losing physics and emotionally makes with that if it disillusions. It discovers that the love letters were false; the friends were false; its belief was false. For all side alone it finds suffering, oppression, hypocrisy. It is alone, absolutely only, and the solitude is everything that remains to it. Its end is emblematic. It dies vitimado for the proper brother. Paid for a crime that did not commit. The Biblical intertextualidade is evident: it compares the trajectory and the behavior of Viramundo with Via-Sacra of the Christ, in all the directions, also in the final sacrifice.
