ARTAUD: O UMBIGO DA ESCRITA.

This essay presents aspects of Artaud’s writing experience, based on some of his first texts – “Umbilical Limbo” and “Nerve Scales” –, read together with Freud’s theory of dreams, the notion of writing in Lacan and the concepts of “absence of the book” and “absence of the work” in Blanchot. At the same time, a reading operator is formulated for the writer’s work, derived from similarities and differences between literature and psychoanalysis: the navel of the writing.
