With this essay I intend to explore the influence of Ingmar Bergman’s cinema on the Portuguese novel from the sixties and seventies. It will be of interest to confront The Seventh Seal (1956), by Ingmar Bergman, a film that premiered in Lisbon in 1963, with two Portuguese novels that appeared some years later: A Noite e o Riso (1969), by Nuno Braganca, and Alegria Breve (1965), by Vergilio Ferreira, since all these texts (cinematic and literary) deal with a metaphysics of death. Both Portuguese writers use on their novels the chess-playing motif (the medieval knight plays chess with Death in Bergman’s film) and both protagonists, when faced with death, play chess with some other secondary character (Jaime plays chess with Padre Marques, in Alegria Breve; the narrator from A Noite e o Riso, after being transformed into just another character creating this way the necessary distance to write and tell the trauma of Zana’s death, plays with a teenager – Freitas – in a chess tournament). What follows is a comparative approach and a close reading of all these texts dealing with the chess-playing motif, a representation on a microcosmic level of the existential questions at stake.

Today’s theatrical art sometimes utilizes modern electronic technologies of visualisation that may be, especially if we use a certain amount of simplification, generally defined as “video”. This kind of technology consists of a complex set of devices: shooting cameras, recording devices, trick equipment, broadcasting devices, screens. Theatrical mise en scènes once used to involve film; however, mostly before the emergence and refinement of digital video technologies. It is beyond any doubts that compared to film, video has many advantages – one of the most significant of these advantages is the fact that video technology allows to provide simultaneous online streaming of both image and sound. In case creators and producers of a theatrical mise en scène decide to use such a technology, they tend to favour it over the theatrical elements, which may lead to a shift from mimesis towards virtualisation of the performed spectacle. On the other hand, classic theatre, along with its long-term tradition and solid forms, is a strong, persistent sphere of art; even the video is rarely able to prevail and change the scenic reality into a virtual, abstract electronic world. We have decided to discuss these theoretical notions in relation to the theatrical mise en scène Fanny and Alexander by Ingmar Bergman, which was directed by Marián Amsler and performed at the Slovak National Theatre in 2016. Our analysis reflects on the forms of hybrid convergence merging theatrical art and video art in this particular case. However, as the conclusion suggests, video art and its technological possibilities may have influenced the mise en scène’s overall setting, but the given theatrical work was able to preserve its own integrity without sacrificing any part of the true nature of theatre as such.
