O Salieri de Borges

Sylvia Colombo

O mundo literário portenho está convulso devido às declarações que a polêmica viúva de Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986), Maria Kodama, deu ao jornal “La Nación” no último dia 10. Kodama disparou vários ataques ao amigo de seu marido, o também escritor Adolfo Bioy Casares (1914-1989). “Covarde” e “detrito humano” foram apenas algumas das acusações que fez, revoltada com a publicação de “Borges”, livro em que Bioy Casares conta intimidades de sua relação com o autor de “O Aleph” e faz comentários sobre sua vida com Kodama.

“Bioy é o Salieri de Borges”, cravou, fazendo referência ao compositor contemporâneo de Mozart e invejoso do talento deste. “Esse homem (Bioy) escreve um livro em que inventa, distorce o que você diz ou coloca na sua boca o que ele não tem coragem de dizer. E só publica depois que você morre e ele também morre. Isso não é um homem. Isso é um detrito humano para mim.”

As agressões revoltaram profundamente os amigos e fãs do autor de “História da Guerra do Cerdo” e  “A Invenção de Morel”. Vários intelectuais se manifestaram através de declarações e artigos. Um deles foi Roberto Alifano, diretor da revista “Proa”, fundada por Borges. “Acreditamos que a miopia que a senhorita K declara padecer é na verdade mental. Talvez o que ocorra é que Bioy Casares tenha sido testemunha do destrato que tantas vezes ela teve em relação a Borges, e isso ela não se perdoa.”

Hoje, a partir das 18h, ocorre um ato de desagravo na casa Leopoldo Lugones, em Buenos Aires, no qual alguns intelectuais, como María Esther Vázquez, Alejandro Vaccaro e o próprio Alifano irão homenagear Bioy. Kodama não voltou a comentar suas declarações. O episódio veio somar-se a tantos outros em que se mostra possessiva e intransigente com relação à obra do marido, como no caso em que barrou traduções e impediu adaptações. Se Bioy foi o Salieri de Borges, para muitos Kodama é a Yoko Ono, a mulher que afastou o gênio de seu projeto e o fez deixar a arte num segundo plano.

I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or something, website theme . a tones way for your customer to communicate. Excellent task..

  3. Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a 40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

  4. I would like to thnkx for the efforts you have put in writing this website. I’m hoping the same high-grade blog post from you in the upcoming as well. In fact your creative writing abilities has inspired me to get my own website now. Actually the blogging is spreading its wings fast. Your write up is a great example of it.

  5. *I must say, as a lot as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while. Its as if you had a wonderful grasp on the subject matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you should think about this from far more than one angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so considerably. Its better if you think about what others may have to say instead of just going for a gut reaction to the subject. Think about adjusting your own believed process and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt.

  6. The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

  7. hello there and thank you for your info – I’ve certainly picked up anything new from right here. I did however expertise several technical issues using this website, as I experienced to reload the website many times previous to I could get it to load correctly. I had been wondering if your web hosting is OK? Not that I am complaining, but slow loading instances times will often affect your placement in google and could damage your high quality score if advertising and marketing with Adwords. Anyway I’m adding this RSS to my e-mail and could look out for a lot more of your respective interesting content. Make sure you update this again very soon..

  10. I have really learned newer and more effective things through your website. One other thing I’d prefer to say is that newer laptop operating systems are inclined to allow a lot more memory for use, but they in addition demand more storage simply to function. If one’s computer cannot handle more memory as well as newest computer software requires that memory increase, it could be the time to buy a new Laptop. Thanks
