Resumo
The subject that invites and gathers us to think is Raul Seixas´ conception of the New Aeon, thinking about its historical constitution, its values and consequences to the postmodern society. Elaborated by the English writer Aleister Crowley in the beginning of the twentieth century, this doctrine stimulated existential trajectories of great refutable power, making him the counterculture guru. Raul Seixas, who followed the counterculture movement, made from his poetical creation the social spirit from his time. In this meaning, the main objective of this research is understanding what the New Aeon is, showing its relation with Fredric Jameson’s concept of postmodernism. As specific objectives, we propose understanding the conceptions of Old Aeon and modernity, in its relations with the mentioned concepts. In this dialog with Seixas, we look for the resonances in his work of the questions that aim his time: occultism, counterculture, cultural industry, authoritarism, censorship, nihilism and melancholy.
