A jornada em busca de si mesmo: o dialogismo entre Hermann Hesse e BTS

Abstract

Based on the theoretical propositions by Bakhtin (2003) on dialogical relations among statements and considering the literary system as an object that goes further than just the elite cannon, this article intends to explain the dialogism between tracks of the album Wings (2016) by the south-Korean group BTS presented in short films and the novel of formation Demian (1919) by Hermann Hesse. Both literary productors have built their discourses separately and in very different times, however, when put together as objects of analysis, it is evident the presence of Hesse’s speech in the production of the group. This convergence is extremely valid, as it contributes to demonstrate the literary nature of the songs in the album Wings and so that thousands of fans can also get interested on the readings that inspire the group.
