Sažetak
The author deals with the analysis of writing as the thinking of the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa, who belongs to the most significant artists of the 20th century, although his influence is only nowadays gaining the deserved world reception not only in the field of literary theory and poetry, but also of contemporary philosophy. Since the fundamental problem of his work is represented in the multiplication of persons he created as authentic participants in thinking and writing, it appears that an access to his works requires, first, an insight into the ontological-metaphysical questions regarding Being, beings, and the essence of man, because a person cannot be reduced to the matrix of subjectivity. Instead, Pessoa demands a different approach immanently dealing with the aspiration of traversing through his heteronyms (Campos, Caeiro, Reis) to the recognition that writing needs to be understood as the absolute freedom in the construction of new identities. In accordance with Heidegger’s and Wittgenstein’s thoughts regarding the questions of language, and in the search for a newer analysis of Pessoa’s works in the philosophical writings of Alain Badiou and Judith Balso, the author tries to follow his own way of interpreting Pessoa as a thinker-artist whose voice shows the authentic simulacrum of the world, in which contingency represents the necessity of freedom, and the chaos of imagination becomes the creative order without beginning or end.
