Shrnutí: | This analytical and exploratory research has as objective to analyze the relationship established between the tales present in the collections "Bestiario", "As armas secretas" and "Histórias de cronópios e famas", and the poem "Cidade", which is part of the novel "62, um modelo para armar" of the writer Julio Cortázar and the complete work of the anthropologist Carlos Castaneda. The paper proposes that the works of Julio Cortazar and Carlos Castaneda is embedded in a mystical and literary tradition, which refers to shamanism, in the primitive world, the romantic poets, and which culminated in movements such as surrealism and counterculture in the twentieth century. The paper investigates the role of metaphorical meaning, spirituality, and dream of playful elements in the work of both authors. It also examines their works, from the philosophical concepts of visible and invisible. Some of the most important theoretical contributions for this discussion are the works of Marcel de Lima Santos, Davi Arrigucci Jr., Joseph Campbell, Octavio Paz, M. Merleau-Ponty and Aldous Huxley. It concludes that Cortazar and Castaneda propose a recovery of common origin between poetry and magic as a means of reality questions. For this purpose, the works studied depart from different points - literature in Cortázar and anthropology in Castaneda. In this search, Cortázar s literary production approaches increasingly to anthropology and magic, while Castaneda flirts with the literature |
