Resumo: |
This paper is a study on the presence of perverse characters in mass culture, having as its scope the choice of the villain known as The Joker, nemesis of the comic strip superhero Batman. In order to do that, within the domain of psychoanalytic semiotics and fundamentally supported by the semiotics of Charles Sanders Peirce, I intend to analyze the construction and representation of the character throughout its history in different media formats. Through a semiotic analysis of its first appearance in a comic book his fundamental characteristics will be extracted. Next, the social, cultural and historical contexts will be analyzed, with emphasis on two specific moments (1940-1954 and 1973-2008), and always with an intention to establish relationships between the life journey and the reformulations suffered by The Joker. Finally, the psychoanalytic theories of Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan will serve as basis for a study on perversion and on how its presence in current days' social link may be articulated with the Joker's persistence and ubiquity in the media, as well as with its relevance to the consumer audience of cultural products |
