Resumo:
Having Virginia Woolf s proposition in her essay On being ill as a starting point, this dissertation focus on an immersive experience of the fever imagery lived by both artistic and theoretical critical manifestations. Theories from Walter Benjamin, the german philosopher, and Jonathan Crary, the north-american scholar, are present in this research, inviting us to a specific dimension of the fever, slow and effervescent; human and mechanical; infuriated and dampened. Regarding the study of this paper, it is necessary to ponder: what political dimensions could be mobilized from the state of convalescence of someone who observes the world from their bed? Could such action disturb the practical and hegemonic orders that have been installed as a direct consequence of the current economic model? This paper addresses these questions by introducing a new way of seeing things, a state in which, even among the ferocity of information demanded by late capitalism, allows a depart from the things of the world so the details and fragments, forgotten under the bed, may be seen once again.
