LOUZADA FONSECA, Pedro Carlos  and  BOTTOS JUNIOR, Norival. DANTE ALIGHIERI AND THE OVERDETERMINATED FEMALE VOICE: AGONISM AND PHANTASMAGORIA. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2019, n.76, pp.176-191. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n76a09.

The woman is the central theme for Dante, from his first lyric poems to the Comedy. In this thematic perspective, through a comparative method and critical-theoretical analysis, this article examines the way in which the poet used the phantasmatic operation of courtly love to annul the female voice of Beatrice in The New Life and how later on the Florentine lady resurfaced in the Comedy endowed with the masculine voice of the own Dante in constant process of self-listening. In this mimetic aspect, the article intends to conclude that Dante's poetics presents traces of emancipation from medieval aesthetics towards the modern.

Keywords : Female Voice; Overdetermination; Phantasm; Agonism; Dante Alighieri.
