Abstract(s)
Pensar o perdão é fazer uma navegação às profundezas da falta e descobrir a marca do absurdo com que ela sela a vida humana. E, desde esse fundo tenebroso, reinventar uma vida. Se de todo ele é possível, o perdão será dom transbordante no seio de uma dívida dolorosa. Mas não se chega da dívida ao dom sem passar pela reinvenção do sentido. Porque o passado é irreversível. O que resta é a leitura com que ele é olhado, que pode ser recriada. E recriadora. Face ao irreversível e ao imperdoável, o perdão representará uma reconfiguração na história de uma vida. Dom desproporcional, excessivo, transcendente, o perdão mostra-se como renarração, luto, promessa, reconhecimento e hospitalidade. Dá-se como caminho de acolhimento do outro, do outro inimigo, do outro culpado, na recriação de uma vida e do viver juntos. Talvez só nele se dê o milagre de fazer do inimigo um amigo.
To think about forgiveness is to navigate the depths of fault and to discover the mark of absurdity with which it seals human life. And, from that dark background, to reinvent a life. If it is possible at all, forgiveness will be an overflowing gift in the midst of a painful debt. But one cannot get from debt to gift without going through the reinvention of meaning. Because the past is irreversible. What remains is the reading with which it is looked at, which can be recreated. And recreative. In the face of the irreversible and the unforgivable, forgiveness will represent a reconfiguration in the history of a life. A disproportionate, excessive, transcendent gift, forgiveness is shown as retelling, mourning, promise, acknowledgment and hospitality. It takes place as a way of welcoming the other, the other enemy, the guilty other, in the recreation of a life and of living together. Perhaps only in him can the miracle of making the enemy a friend take place.
