Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2002.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis investigates the possibility that there are other ways in which to represent the past, not just the traditional way as practised by historians. For instance, other forms such as historical fiction in the historical novel, and therefore, narrative, can act as an important conduit for conveying historical meaning. Through the examination of the historiographic metafiction of the South African writer, Etienne Van Heerden, this study has concluded that through a reading of both the author's belletristic and theoretical texts, readers interested in history and literature will gain some understanding of the problems that come with writing up the past. At the same time, they will gain some knowledge of a different way of writing about South African history, because the author portrays the historical events in a refreshing, vivid and imaginative way. However, it needs to be said from the outset that in no way is the writer of this thesis neglecting the merits of traditional history or advocating its abolition, which is, ultimately, the scientific way of representing the past and remains sacred and paramount for the historian, both amateur and professional.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek die moontlikheid dat die verlede volgens ander sienswyses voorgestel kan word en nie slegs volgens die tradisionele sienswyses van historici nie. Daar is byvoorbeeld ander vorme, soos historiese fiksie wat in historiese novelles gebruik word, en daarom kan die narratief as 'n belangrike kanaal dien om historiese betekenis mee oor te dra. Deur 'n ondersoek van die historiese metafiksie van die Suid-Afrikaanse skrywer, Etienne van Heerden, kom hierdie studie tot die gevolgtrekking dat deur die lees van beide die skrywer se belletristiese en teoretiese tekste, lesers wat in die geskiedenis en literatuur belangstel, 'n begrip sal kry van die problematiek wat gepaard gaan met die skryf van geskiedenis. Terselfdertyd sal hulle 'n begrip kry van 'n alternatiewe skryf van die Suid-Afrikaanse geskiedenis, omdat die skrywer historiese gegewens in 'n verfrissende, helder en verbeeldingryke wyse oordra. Dit moet egter beklemtoon word dat die skrywer van hierdie tesis geensins die meriete van tradisionele geskiedskrywing negeer of die afskaffing daarvan voorstaan nie, aangesien die wetenskaplike voorstelling van die verlede kosbaar en van kardinale belang vir beide amateur en professionele historici bly.

Full textAbstract:
Historiographic metafiction - self-reflexive postmodernist fiction which incorporates historical events and personages, according to Linda Hutcheon's definition - offers a parodic critique of the epistemology and narrative forms of traditional historiography and historical fiction. Calling into question the totalising grand narratives of "official" history, it refigures the past into self-consciously fictional forms that problematise the ontological boundary between the "real" and "fictional" and challenges the predominant cultural sense of History as the public actions of the Great. Hutcheon's original study of the form, however, devotes little attention to works of historiographic metafiction centred on the fictionalised inner life and private experience of a real-world historical individual. My thesis is an attempt to at least partially rectify this oversight by offering readings of three such texts: Michael Ondaatje's The Collected Works of Billy the Kid, Peter Carey's True History of the Kelly Gang and Don DeLillo's Libra. By way of comparison, I also offer a reading of Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children, an influential historiographic metafiction in which the incorporation of historical personages is objective and peripheral, but in which the fictional refiguration of public history is nevertheless highly individualistic. This thesis contends that while postmodernist theory and fiction typically contest liberal humanist conceptions of the individual subject as autonomous and unified, these works of historiographic metafiction nevertheless use narratives of individual subjectivity - fragmented and socio-historically situated, interior and experiential, domestic and private - to challenge traditional historical discourse's pri vileging of the public and the momentous. I argue that Ondaatje' s, Carey's and DeLillo's texts both utilise and subvert the conventions of historical documentation and realist fiction in order to expose the artificiality of their own apparently authentic representation; by foregrounding their own authorial acts of narrative power, they ultimately reveal the irreducible absence of the "real" historical individual from both historical and fictional texts.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation is an exploration of relationships between fiction and history as illuminated by historiographic fiction in general and the historiographic novel in particular. Here the term historiography is employed particularly in several of its many meanings: as the study of the materials and techniques of history, the study of what it means to be a historian, and the study of the philosophy of history. All of these are comprehended in the larger definition of issues pertaining to the writing of history. Four twentieth-century novels are presented and analyzed as historiographic novels. The common element in analysis of all the novels is the examination of historiographic material encoded in narrative, plot, characters, theme, structure or style. Each analysis focuses on one historiographic assumption or problem and brings in perspectives of historians or theorists of history as well as non-novelistic, critical perspectives of the authors themselves. E. M. Forster's Howards End (1910) is analyzed as an imaginative exposé of causality in historical thinking. All the King's Men by Robert Penn Warren (1946) is presented as a gloss on Isaiah Berlin's critique of Leo Tolstoy's second epilogue to War and Peace. Several essays by philosopher Eric Voegelin provide the theoretical framework for a historiographic analysis of Milan Kundera's The Book of Laughter and Forgetting (1978). The historiographic reading of Graham Swift's Waterland (1983) turns on the convergence of tensions between natural and human history with conflicting ideas of what constitutes revolution. In the process of these analyses, the study establishes general properties of the historiographic novel, as opposed to related categories (historical novel, nonfiction novel, and historiographic metafiction, for example). The isolation, description, and examination of historiographic novels as a category of history is offered as a contribution to the debate about the relationships, respectively, between narrative and objectivity, and experience and representation.

Full textAbstract:
This practice-based research project consists of a 33,000-word novella, "Folly", and a 50,000-word exegesis that examines the principles of historiographic metafiction (HMF), the recontextualisation of historical figures and scenarios, and other narratological concepts that inform my creative practice. As an emerging sub-genre of historical fiction, HMF is one aspect of a national and international discourse about historical fiction in the fields of literature, history, and politics. Leading theorists discussed below include Linda Hutcheon and Ansgar Nünning, along with the recent critically-acclaimed work of contemporary Australian writers, Richard Flanagan, Kate Grenville, and Louis Nowra. "Folly" traces a number of periods in the lives of fictional versions of the researcher and his eighteenthcentury Irish relative, and experiments with concepts of historiographic metafiction, the recontextualisation of historical figures and scenarios, and the act of narratorial manipulation, specifically focalisation, voice, and point of view. The key findings of this research include: identifying the principles and ideas that support writing work of historiographic metafiction; a determination as to the value of recontextualisation of historical figures and scenarios, and narratorial manipulation, in the writing of historiographic metafiction; an account of the challenges facing an emerging writer of historiographic metafiction, and their resulting solutions (where these could be established); and, finally, some possible directions for future research.

Full textAbstract:
Since the mid-1980s, the study of Canadian postmodern historical fiction has been dominated by Linda Hutcheon’s “historiographic metafiction.” Emphasizing historiography and textuality, critics of historiographic metafiction have flattened the past to text and image, inadvertently severing its active connection with the present and removing it from historical process. This is problematic for the ideological intentions of the texts in question because it is an awareness of the past/present dialectic that incites awareness that present action can lead to future change. This thesis, therefore, examines three novels that have overwhelmingly been viewed as historiographic metafiction for their inclusion of researcher-historian characters: Findley’s The Wars, Bowering’s Burning Water, and Marlatt’s Ana Historic. By opening up these texts to criticism that acknowledges history as process, I demonstrate that there is no need to limit these novels to this problematic framework and that researcher-historian characters are valuable for more than their foregrounding of historiography.

Full textAbstract:
The classic slave narrative recounted a fugitive slave’s personal story condemning slavery and hence working towards abolition. The neo-slave narrative underlines the slave’s historical legacy by unveiling the past through foregrounding African Atlantic experiences in an attempt to create a critical historiography of the Black Atlantic. The neo-slave narrative is a genre that emerged following World War II and presents us with a dialogue combining the history of 1970 - 2000. In this thesis I seek to explore how the contemporary counter-part of the classic slave narrative draws, reflects or diverges from the general conventions of its predecessor. I argue that by scrutinizing our notion of truth, the neo-slave narrative remains a relevant, important witness to the history of slavery as well as to today’s still racialized society. The historiographic metafiction of the neo-slave narrative rewrites history with the goal of digesting the past and ultimately leading to future reconciliation.

A novela Clarice (1996), de Ana Mirada, completa o conjunto de obras nas quais a narradora fabula a vida de autores do cânone literário brasileiro. Com essas ficções, Miranda enquadra-se em uma tendência da literatura contemporânea que cria biografias ficcionais de escritores ou artistas. Nesse sentido, a presente dissertação integra um comentário das obras de Miranda enquadradas no gênero metaficcional historiográfico e uma leitura interpretativa de Clarice, foco deste estudo. Para tanto, são pensadas questões relativas à literatura e sua relação com a história. Logo, apresenta-se uma visão de conjunto das narrativas de Ana Miranda que tematizam a história da literatura brasileira, aprofundando-se nos conceitos de ficção, metaficção e metaficção historiográfica. No contexto geral, relativo aos problemas de tipologia e poética narrativa, desenvolve-se a análise literária de Clarice, encaminhando a leitura para a constituição da obra, sobretudo no que tem a ver com suas estratégias intertextuais, no caso presente, a ficção de Clarice Lispector, o que motiva a reflexão em torno da escrita e da leitura literária.
The novel Clarice (1996), by Ana Miranda, completes the series of works, in which the narrator creates the authors’ of the Brazilian literary canon life. With those fictions, Miranda became part of a tendency in the contemporary literature that creates fictional biographies of writers or artists. In that sense, the present dissertation integrates a discussion of Miranda’s works included in the genre known as historiographic metafiction and also integrates an interpretative reading of Clarice, the study’s focus narrative. So, questions related to literature are thought in relationship with the history. Therefore, it shows a vision of group of Ana Miranda’s narratives that talk about the history of the Brazilian literature, being deepened in the concepts of fiction, metafiction and historiographic metafiction. In this general context, which deals with typology problems and poetic narrative, it grows Clarice’s literary analysis that directs the reading for the constitution of the work, concerning to the intertextual strategies, in this case Clarice Lispector’s fiction, which motivates the reflection around literary strategies as reading and writing.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis traces the influence of postmodernism on picturebooks. Through a review of current scholarship on both postmodernism and postmodern literature it examines the multiple ways in which picturebooks have responded to the influence of postmodernism. The thesis is predominantly located in the field of Cultural and Literary Studies, which informs the ways in which children’s literature is positioned within contemporary culture and how it responds to the influences which shape its production and reception. Cultural and Literary Studies also offers a useful theoretical frame for analysing issues of textuality, ideology, and originality, as well as social and political comment in the focus texts. The thesis utilises the theoretical contributions by, in particular, Linda Hutcheon, Brian McHale, and Fredric Jameson as well as reference to children’s literature studies.
This thesis makes a significant contribution to the development of an understanding of the place of the postmodern picturebook within the cultural context of postmodernism. It adds to the field of children’s literature research through an awareness of the (continuing) evolution of the postmodern picturebook particularly as the current scholarship on the postmodernism picturebook does not engage with the changing form and significance of the postmodern picturebook to the same extent as this thesis. This study is significant from a methodological perspective as it draws on a wide range of theoretical perspectives across literary studies, visual semiotics, philosophy, cultural studies, and history to develop a tripartite methodological framework that utilises the methods of postclassical narratology, semiotics, and metafictive strategies to carry out the textual analysis of the focus texts.
The three analysis chapters examine twenty-two picturebooks in detail with respect to the ways in which the conventions of narrative are subverted and how dominant discourses are interrogated. Chapter 4: Subverting Narrative Processes includes analysis of narrative point of view, modes of representation, and characters and the problems of identity and subjectivity. Chapter 5: Challenging Truth, History, and Unity examines questions of ontology, the difficulties of representing history, and addresses issues of difference and ‘otherness’. The final textual analysis chapter, Chapter 6: Engaging with Postmodernity, critiques texts which engage with issues of globalisation, mass media, and consumerism. Brief discussion of a further fifteen picturebooks throughout the thesis provides additional support.
Children’s texts have a tradition of being both resistant and compliant. Its resistance has made a space for the development of the postmodern picturebook; its compliance is evident in its tendency to take a route around a truly radical or iconoclastic position. This thesis posits that children’s postmodern picturebooks adopt what suits their form and purposes by drawing from and reflecting on some influences of postmodernism while disregarding those that seem irrelevant to its direction. Furthermore, the thesis identifies a shift in the focus of a number of postmodern picturebooks produced since the turn of the twenty-first century. This trend has seen a shift from texts which interrogate discourses of liberal humanism to those that engage with aspects of postmodernity. These texts, postmodernesque picturebooks, offer contradictory perspectives on aspects of society emanating from the rise in global trends mentioned above.

Resumo: As narrativas de ficção de caráter histórico tal como o romance O Nome da Rosa de Umberto Eco permitem uma vasta possibilidade de abordagem de estudos. Dentre estes, percebe-se a importância da ironia na construção do texto de Umberto Eco. Por meio dela, verifica-se como a obra ficcional em estudo abrange tanto a reflexão em torno do conceito de mímesis, quanto o uso reiterado da intertextualidade, elemento, aliás, constante dentro da ficção contemporânea. A ironia, recurso permanentemente presente na construção da narrativa, permite que se estabeleça um nicho entre aquilo que se espera de um texto histórico - a verdade - e aquilo que se espera de um texto ficcional - a invenção. Ela possibilita, portanto, um ponto de reflexão e questionamento das verdades históricas. Nota-se, assim, a capacidade que a narrativa de caráter histórico, em especial a obra O Nome da Rosa, apresenta de reavaliar o conceito mimético não como cópia da realidade, nem como o espaço de negação da condição referencial do texto literário. Ela, antes, possibilita uma reconsideração em torno do conceito aristotélico. Na construção da narrativa, observa-se ainda o quanto elementos, como o narrador, são fundamentais para a criação de uma mentalidade no leitor de que a verdade está sendo dita a todo instante, além de tantos outros elementos que têm a função de autentificação do discurso ficcional como expressão da realidade. Essa ambientação constante da verdade-realidade é a todo o momento desmantelada pela ação da ironia que desvela ao leitor não uma outra verdade, mas sim a possibilidade do questionamento constante do mero estabelecimento de uma verdade unilateral. Obra vasta em sua capacidade plurissignificativa, O Nome da Rosa apresenta, ainda, uma discussão de caráter filosófico em torno da proibição do riso na Idade Média demonstrando, assim, o quanto...

Abstract: Fiction narratives of historic character like Umberto Eco's novel O Nome da Rosa allow a wide possibility of studies. Among them the importance of irony in Umberto Eco's text construction is realized. Through this irony it is seen how this fiction has a reflection about the concept of mimesis, as the reiterated use of intertextuality, element this often used in contemporary fiction works. Irony, recourse permanently present in narratives construction allows a relation between what is expected from a historical text - the truth - and what is expected from a fictional text - the invention. It enables, therefore, a reflection and questioning point of historical truth. It is noticed, then, the capacity that historical narrative, especially O Nome da Rosa, presents to reevaluate the mimetic concept not as a copy from reality, neither as a negation space of literary text's referencial condition. It enables just reconsideration on Aristotelian concept. In narrative construction it is visible how elements, like the narrator, are essential to the creation of a mentality in the reader that the truth is being told every instant, besides many other elements that have an authentication in the fictional discourse as a reality expression. This constant truth-reality environment is ruined every moment by the action of irony that reveals to the reader is not another truth, but a possibility of constant questioning of a simple act of instituting a unilateral truth. A wide work in its plurisignificant capacity, O Nome da Rosa presents, moreover, a philosophical discussion involving the laughter prohibition in Middle Ages, demonstrating, therefore, how Fiction and History match as elements of human knowledge boundaries and how they deserve to be studied and deepened for a better...

A presente pesquisa, vinculada ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em História, da Universidade Federal de Pelotas, objetiva investigar a narrativa imagética e textual na graphic novel V for Vendetta(1982-1988), criada pelos britânicos Alan Moore e David Lloyd a partir da sua relação com aspectos do passado, mais especificamente, com a política e sociedade da Inglaterra da década de 1980. Como criação artístico-cultural, acreditamos que seu período de produção, o qual, é concomitante aos mandatos de Margareth Thatcher (1979-1990), conhecida por promover o neoliberalismo na Inglaterra, foi crucial para as referências a que a obra contém, como a tomada de posição política dos seus idealizadores. Nesse sentido, este trabalho conta, como referencial teórico metodológico os estudos de autores, como Ankersmit(2001, 2012), White(1991, 1999, 2006, 2010), Hutcheon(1991), Kellner(2001), Foucault(1996), entre outros, os quais possibilitaram vislumbrar a obra não como mera fonte, mas como uma construção histórica da década de 1980 inglesa. A proposta de análise pauta-se na versão original da obra, em entrevistas com os autores e documentários. A partir das reflexões efetuadas , percebemos que a construção histórica em V for Vendetta mantém aproximações com as narrativas historiográficas, visto que tanto nosso objeto de estudo quanto a historiografia apresentam interpretações sobre uma “realidade” passada.
This research is linked to the Graduation Program in History on Universidade Federal de Pelotas(UFPEL) and its aim is to investigate the imagetical and textual narrative in the graphic novel V for Vendetta (1982-1988)created by the British Alan Moore and David Lloyd from their relation with their past aspects, specifically with politics and society in England in the 1980s. As artistic and cultural creation, it is believed it is a production period, which is concomitant with the mandates of Margaret Thatcher(1979-1990), known to promote the neoliberalism in England, was crucial to the references to the work contains, as political statement of its creators . In this sense, this paper has as theoretical framework the study of authors, as Ankersmit (2001,2012), White (1991, 1999, 2006, 2010), Hutcheon (1991), Kellner (2001), Foucault (1996), among others, which made it possible to glimpse the work not as merely as a source, but as a historic building from the 1980s English. The propose of analysis is guided in the original version of the work, interviews with authors and documentaries. From the reflections made, was realized that the historic building in V for Vendetta maintains approximations to the historiographical narratives, since our object of historiography study presents interpretations of a "reality " last.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation examines the representation of ethnic origins in Antonio Skármeta’s fiction. My hypothesis is that exile in Europe and return to Chile led the author to rethink his Dalmatian-Croatian roots and his sense of self in response to prevailing discourses of national identity. I assess Chile’s immigration history as well as the development of the idea of a homogeneous national identity. Blending concepts of ethnic narrative with theories of memory, identity, and literature, I trace Skármeta’s literary shift towards reclaiming his roots and initiating a critical dialogue with established notions of Chilean identity. I further argue that he grounds himself in literary tradition to inscribe immigrant stories into two major foundational genres, the historical novel and the family romance. I also show that, instead of accepting the truth-telling claims of historical fiction, Skármeta employs historiographic metafiction and intertextuality to emphasize the literary nature of fictional discourse and the role of literary figures in inventing the nation. Finally, I contend that these narratives constitute literary lieux de mémoire (Pierre Nora), which incorporate a subjective memory into the evolving discourses on Chilean identity, thereby recognizing pluralism and fostering mutual understanding.

As narrativas de ficção de caráter histórico tal como o romance O Nome da Rosa de Umberto Eco permitem uma vasta possibilidade de abordagem de estudos. Dentre estes, percebe-se a importância da ironia na construção do texto de Umberto Eco. Por meio dela, verifica-se como a obra ficcional em estudo abrange tanto a reflexão em torno do conceito de mímesis, quanto o uso reiterado da intertextualidade, elemento, aliás, constante dentro da ficção contemporânea. A ironia, recurso permanentemente presente na construção da narrativa, permite que se estabeleça um nicho entre aquilo que se espera de um texto histórico - a verdade - e aquilo que se espera de um texto ficcional - a invenção. Ela possibilita, portanto, um ponto de reflexão e questionamento das verdades históricas. Nota-se, assim, a capacidade que a narrativa de caráter histórico, em especial a obra O Nome da Rosa, apresenta de reavaliar o conceito mimético não como cópia da realidade, nem como o espaço de negação da condição referencial do texto literário. Ela, antes, possibilita uma reconsideração em torno do conceito aristotélico. Na construção da narrativa, observa-se ainda o quanto elementos, como o narrador, são fundamentais para a criação de uma mentalidade no leitor de que a verdade está sendo dita a todo instante, além de tantos outros elementos que têm a função de autentificação do discurso ficcional como expressão da realidade. Essa ambientação constante da verdade-realidade é a todo o momento desmantelada pela ação da ironia que desvela ao leitor não uma outra verdade, mas sim a possibilidade do questionamento constante do mero estabelecimento de uma verdade unilateral. Obra vasta em sua capacidade plurissignificativa, O Nome da Rosa apresenta, ainda, uma discussão de caráter filosófico em torno da proibição do riso na Idade Média demonstrando, assim, o quanto...
Fiction narratives of historic character like Umberto Eco's novel O Nome da Rosa allow a wide possibility of studies. Among them the importance of irony in Umberto Eco's text construction is realized. Through this irony it is seen how this fiction has a reflection about the concept of mimesis, as the reiterated use of intertextuality, element this often used in contemporary fiction works. Irony, recourse permanently present in narratives construction allows a relation between what is expected from a historical text - the truth - and what is expected from a fictional text - the invention. It enables, therefore, a reflection and questioning point of historical truth. It is noticed, then, the capacity that historical narrative, especially O Nome da Rosa, presents to reevaluate the mimetic concept not as a copy from reality, neither as a negation space of literary text's referencial condition. It enables just reconsideration on Aristotelian concept. In narrative construction it is visible how elements, like the narrator, are essential to the creation of a mentality in the reader that the truth is being told every instant, besides many other elements that have an authentication in the fictional discourse as a reality expression. This constant truth-reality environment is ruined every moment by the action of irony that reveals to the reader is not another truth, but a possibility of constant questioning of a simple act of instituting a unilateral truth. A wide work in its plurisignificant capacity, O Nome da Rosa presents, moreover, a philosophical discussion involving the laughter prohibition in Middle Ages, demonstrating, therefore, how Fiction and History match as elements of human knowledge boundaries and how they deserve to be studied and deepened for a better...

Este trabalho consiste no estudo dos romances Slash (1985), da escritora okanagan Jeannette Armstrong, e Mean Spirit (1990), da chickasaw Linda Hogan, e busca examinar de que forma as autoras ficcionalizaram, nas suas obras, certos acontecimentos da história dos povos ameríndios no século XX, como os que envolveram a militância política que se fortaleceu a partir dos anos 60 na América do Norte e os assassinatos de membros da nação Osage na década de 1920. Para tanto, recorri ao conceito de metaficção historiográfica proposto por Linda Hutcheon (1988, 1989) e aos estudos em memória de Anh Hua (2005), Maurice Halbwachs (2006), Márcio Seligmann-Silva (2008), Marianne Hirsch (2008) e Aleida Assmann (2011). Considerando as obras de Armstrong e Hogan como espaços de enunciação de uma resistência cultural que vai além dos limites tribais, optei por adotar uma perspectiva cosmopolita tal qual sustentada por Arnold Krupat (2002), e que se apoia nas teorias póscoloniais segundo Mary Louise Pratt (1999), Homi Bhabha (2013), Ella Shohat (1996), Stuart Hall (2003), Kwame Anthony Appiah (1997) e Liane Schneider (2002, 2008).

This work consists of the study of Slash (1985), by Okanagan writer Jeannette Armstrong, and Mean Spirit (1990), by Chickasaw Linda Hogan, and it aims to examine the way in which the writers have fictionalized, in their books, certain events of the history of the American Indian peoples in the twentieth century, such as those concerning the militancy that gained strength in the 60s and the Osage murders that took place in the 20s. With that in mind, I have resorted to the concept of historiographic metafiction, proposed by Linda Hutcheon (1988, 1989) and to the memory studies by Anh Hua (2005), Maurice Halbwachs (2006), Márcio Seligmann-Silva (2008), Marianne Hirsch (2008) and Aleida Assmann (2011). Considering the works of Armstrong and Hogan as sites of enunciation of a type of cultural resistance that goes beyond tribal limits, I have chosen to adopt a cosmopolitan perspective such as sustained by Arnold Krupat (2002) and which leans on the postcolonial theories by Mary Louise Pratt (1999), Homi Bhabha (2013), Ella Shohat (1996), Stuart Hall (2003), Kwame Anthony Appiah (1997) and Liane Schneider (2002, 2008). Moreover, dialogues with the following authors of Native criticism were of the utmost importance: Graça Graúna (2013), Michael Dorris (1979), Craig S.

Thus, I have attempted to verify how the Amerindian resistance takes form in the writings of Armstrong and Hogan, who build narratives artistically complex and of an immense political relevance.

Esta dissertação investiga de que maneiras a representação do sujeito canadense pode ser encontrada em dois romances representativos da literatura canadense contemporânea: Obasan, de Joy Kogawa, e Alias Grace, de Margaret Atwood. Esta investigação também demonstra que a busca pela definição da identidade canadense tem sido tema constante e relevante da cultura deste país. A indefinição quanto ao que significa ser canadense também tem permeado a literatura canadense ao longo dos séculos, notadamente desde o século XIX. A fim de observar a representação literária da busca pela definição da identidade canadense, esta investigação aborda os conceitos relativos à representação de grupos subalternos tradicionalmente silenciados. A análise comparativa dos romances citados contempla a relação entre memória e trauma autobiográficos, assim como as semelhanças narrativas entre ficção e história. Esta investigação também verifica de que maneiras a literatura pós-moderna emprega documentação oficial, relatos históricos e dados (auto) biográficos a serviço da reescrita da história através da metaficção historiográficaThis dissertation investigates the ways through which the representation of the Canadian subject might be observed in two representative novels of contemporary Canadian literature: Obasan, by Joy Kogawa, and Alias Grace, by Margaret Atwood. This investigation also demonstrates that the search for the definition of a specific Canadian identity has been a constant and relevant theme to the countrys culture. The lack of definition concerning the meaning of being Canadian has also permeated Canadian Literature throughout the centuries, most notably since the XIX century. In order to observe the literary representation of the Canadian search for identity, this investigation makes use of the concepts related to the representation of traditionally silenced subaltern groups. The comparative analysis of the abovementioned novels contemplates the relationship between autobiographical memory and trauma, as well as the narrative similarities between fiction and history. This investigation also verifies the ways postmodern literature employs official documentation, historical accounts and (auto) biographical information in the rewriting of history through historiographic metafiction

Castle, Jacob C. "Virginia Woolf’s Fictional Biographies, Orlando and Flush, as Prefigures of Postmodernism." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2016. https://dc.etsu.edu/etd/3158.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the way in which the fictional biographies of Virginia Woolf, Orlando and Flush, prefigure central tenets of postmodern fiction. To demonstrate the postmodern elements present in Orlando and Flush, this thesis focuses on how the fictional biographies exhibit three postmodern characteristics: concern for historiography, extensive use of parody, and the denaturalization of cultural assumptions. Born from Woolf’s desire to revolutionize biography by incorporating elements of fiction alongside historical fact, these two novels parallel later works of historiographic metafiction in several key respects. Woolf’s extensive use of parody in Orlando and Flush prefigures how postmodern parody foregrounds the many ways in which all narratives are inherently constructions. Woolf also expresses a postmodern attitude by denaturalizing cultural assumptions about sexual difference and social class. When taken together, these three traits reveal how Orlando and Flush possess an ontological philosophy indicative of postmodern literature.

In this work, our search object is the novel, Boca do Inferno, by Ana Miranda, adopting as the focus the interpretative analysis the inflows of the narrator voice in its immersion, in the search of the iconic subject: Gregório de Matos Guerra, his figure controversial; the uniqueness of his style, which give his poetry unique importance to Brazilian Literature. This work by Ana Miranda is a narrative construction based on confluences and tensions, created by various discourses, transiting on the frontiers between the historical universe and the history, that bring out lived and felt experiences, grouped in the vast imaginary in which the own poet and his work. The mirandian romanesque discourse will be observed here, in its enunciation, in the transfigurative reconstitution, in its narrativity that crosses the historical and social dimensions in its transcritical enterprise. It is intended, therefore, to investigate, in the discourse of transcreation and transfiguration, based on the presuppositions of theorists such as: Mikhail Bakhtin, Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, Homi Bhabha, Haroldo de Campos, Gérard Genette, Julio Plaza, Linda Hutcheon, others, that instrumentalize our critical discourse in the three chapters of this dissertation, being that in the first one we pointed out how Miranda did emerge the subject narrated by the procedures of its fictional language; and in the second, we dwell on the meanderings of the historiographical metafiction and, in the third, the approaches go back to what was used throughout the dissertation, ascertaining the discursive strategies in which Ana Miranda translates Gregório de Matos Guerra in its multiple dimensions, as central character of his romance.
Neste trabalho, tem-se como objeto de estudo, o romance, Boca do Inferno, de Ana Miranda, adotando como foco a análise interpretativa os influxos da voz narradora em sua imersão, na busca do sujeito icônico: Gregório de Matos Guerra, sua figura controversa; a singularidade de seu estilo, que conferem à sua obra poética importância ímpar para a Literatura Brasileira. Esta obra de Ana Miranda é uma construção narrativa realizada a partir de confluências e tensões, criadas por discursos vários, transitando nas fronteiras entre o universo histórico e o historial, que fazem aflorar experiências vividas e sentidas, agrupadas no vasto imaginário no qual é convertido o próprio poeta e sua obra. O discurso romanesco mirandiano será observado aqui, em sua enunciação, na reconstituição transfigurativa, em sua narratividade que atravessa as dimensões, histórica e social em sua empresa transcriativa. Pretende-se, portanto, investigar, no discurso da transcriação e transfiguração, com base nos pressupostos de teóricos como: Mikhail Bakhtin, Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, Homi Bhabha, Haroldo de Campos, Gérard Genette, Julio Plaza, Linda Hutcheon, além de outros, que instrumentalizam nosso discurso crítico nos três capítulos desta dissertação, sendo que no primeiro apontamos como Miranda fez emergir o sujeito narrado pelos procedimentos de sua linguagem ficcional; e no segundo, nos detemos nos meandros da metaficção historiográfica e, no terceiro, as abordagens remontam ao que foi empregado ao longo da dissertação averiguando as estratégias discursivas nas quais Ana Miranda traduz Gregório de Matos Guerra em suas dimensões múltiplas, como personagem central do seu romance.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this dissertation is to study postmodern historical novels, which are labeled &ldquohistoriographic metafictions&rdquo
(Hutcheon 1989: 92), in terms of their allowing for different voices and alternative, plural histories by subverting the historical documents and events that they refer to. The study analyzes texts from feminist and postcolonial literature, Jeanette Winterson&rsquo
s The Passion and Sexing the Cherry, and Salman Rushdie&rsquo
s Midnight&rsquo
s Children and Shame as examples in which the transgression of boundaries between fact and fiction is achieved. Basing its arguments on postmodern understanding of history, the thesis puts forward that historiography not only represents past events but it also gives meaning to them, as it is a signifying system, and turns historical events into historical facts. Historiography, while constructing historical facts, singles out certain past events while omitting others, for ideological reasons. This inevitably leads to the fact that marginalized groups are denied an official voice by hegemonic ideologies. Therefore, history is regarded as monologic, representing the dominant discourse. The thesis will analyze four novels by Winterson and Rushdie as double-voiced discourses where the dominant voice of history is refracted through subversion and gives way to other voices that have been suppressed. While analyzing the novels themselves, the thesis will look for the metafictional elements of the texts, stressing self-reflexivity, non-linear narrative, and parodic intention to pinpoint the refraction and the co-existence of plural voices. As a result, historiographic metafiction is proved to be a liberating genre, for feminist and postcolonial writers, that enables other histories to be verbalized.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines how themes, conventions and concepts in Gothic discourses are remediated or developed in selected works of contemporary interactive fiction. These works, which are wholly text-based and proceed via command line input from a player, include Nevermore, by Nate Cull (2000), Anchorhead, by Michael S. Gentry (1998), Madam Spider’s Web, by Sara Dee (2006) and Slouching Towards Bedlam, by Star C. Foster and Daniel Ravipinto (2003). The interactive fictions are examined using a media-specific, in-depth analytical approach. Gothic fiction explores the threats which profoundly challenge narrative subjects, and so may be described as concerned with epistemological, ideological and ontological boundaries. In the interactive fictions these boundaries are explored dually through the player’s traversal (that is, progress through a work) and the narrative(s) produced as a result of that traversal. The first three works in this study explore the vulnerabilities related to conceptions of human subjectivity. As an adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s famous poem “The Raven,” Nevermore, examined in chapter one, is a work in which self-reflexivity extends to the remediated use of the Gothic conventions of ‘the unspeakable’ and ‘live burial’ which function in Poe’s poem. In chapter two, postmodern indeterminacy, especially with regard to the tensions between spaces and subjective boundaries, is apparent in the means through which the trope of the labyrinth is redesigned in Anchorhead, a work loosely based on H. P. Lovecraft’s terror fiction. In the fragmented narratives produced via traversal of Madam Spider’s Web, considered in chapter three, the player character’s self-fragmentation, indicated by the poetics of the uncanny as well as of the Gothic-grotesque, illustrates a destabilized conception of the human subject which reveals a hidden monster within, both for the player character and the player. Finally, traversal of Slouching Towards Bedlam, analyzed in chapter four, produces a series of narratives which function in a postmodern, recursive fashion to implicate the player in the viral infection which threatens the decidedly posthuman player character. This viral entity is metaphorically linked to Bram Stoker’s vampire, Dracula. As it is the only work in the study to present a conception of posthuman subjectivity, Slouching Towards Bedlam more specifically aligns with the subgenre ‘cybergothic,’ and provides an illuminating contrast to the other three interactive fictions. In the order in which I examine them, these works exemplify a postmodern development of the Gothic which increasingly marries fictional indeterminacy to explicit formal effects, both during interaction and in the narratives produced.

Previous issue date: 2013-12-13This presents research is a study of the novelistic metamorphosis in A Força do Destino (1977), by Nélida Piñon. Its goal is to verify the narrative techniques employed in this novel, to establish correlations reflections on intercultural and discussing possible conclusions about the art of storytelling. The methodology applied is the theoretical research of qualitative nature. As to the means of investigation, it is a descriptive-explanatory literature since the work under consideration is an artistic expression and analysis explains how the development of the novel within the novel itself, typical case of historiographical metafiction occurs. The method used is deductive, and start from the premise that Nelida Piñon, to rescue the opera La Forza del Destino, by Giuseppe Verdi, reworks it in a parody way from the perspective of the chronicler Nélida, the narrator-character, do either A Força do Destino as simple mimesis. She breaks with the traditional Brazilian narrative and therefore intensifies, selectively, certain trends in the post- modernism.
Esta dissertação apresenta um estudo acerca da metamorfose romanesca em A Força do Destino (1977), de Nélida Piñon. O objetivo é verificar e analisar as principais técnicas narrativas empregadas nesse romance, para, em seguida, estabelecer reflexões sobre as correlações interculturais e discorrer sobre possíveis conclusões a respeito da própria arte de narrar. A metodologia empregada é a pesquisa teórica de natureza qualitativa. Quanto ao meio de investigação, trata-se de uma pesquisa bibliográfica descritiva-explicativa, uma vez que a obra em estudo é uma manifestação artística e sua análise explica como ocorre a elaboração do romance no interior do próprio romance, típico caso de metaficção historiográfica. O método adotado é o dedutivo, pois parte da premissa de que Nélida Piñon, ao resgatar a ópera La Forza del Destino, de Giuseppe Verdi, reelabora-a parodicamente a partir da perspectiva da cronista Nélida, a narradora-personagem, pois não quer A Força do Destino como simples mimesis. Ela rompe com a narrativa tradicional brasileira e, por conseguinte, intensifica, seletivamente, certas tendências presentes no pós-modernismo.

Este trabalho realiza um diálogo entre as obras dos autores Ruth Rocha, escritora brasileira, e José Cardoso Pires, escritor português. De Ruth Rocha utilizamos: O reizinho mandão, O sapo-vira-rei-vira-sapo, O rei que não sabia de nada, O que os olhos não vêem; e de Cardoso Pires: Dinossauro excelentíssimo. Ao trabalhar com esses livros, pretendemos mostrar a relação da ficção com a realidade dos países envolvidos. Partimos da hipótese de que essas obras, escritas durante o período militar brasileiro e o Salazarismo, colaboraram para o reconhecimento da importância de um regime político democrático para trazer a liberdade às nações brasileira e portuguesa. Nosso objetivo é também demonstrar como os autores denunciaram as situações históricas dos dois países, por meio da paródia, da alegoria e da carnavalização. As obras analisadas são destinadas tanto aos leitores mirins como aos adultos. Nossa pesquisa ampara-se em obras de Literatura Comparada, Literatura Infantil e Juvenil, História Política e Social do Brasil e de Portugal.This work consists to dialogue the works of writer Ruth Rocha, Brazilian writer, and Jose Cardoso Pires, a Portuguese writer. From Ruth Rocha are used: O reizinho mandão, O sapo-vira-rei-vira-sapo ou o retorno do reizinho mandão, O rei que não sabia de nada, O que os olhos não veem; and from Cardoso Pires is used: Dinossauro excelentíssimo. We intend to show the relationship between fiction and reality in the countries involved working with these books. We started from the hypothesis that these works, written during the Brazilian military and Salazarism, contributed to the recognition of the importance of a democratic political system to bring freedom to the Brazilian and Portuguese nations. Our objective is also to demonstrate how the writers denounced the historical situations of the two countries, through the parody, the allegory and the carnivalization. The works analyzed are appropriate for junior readers as adult readers. Our research supports in works of Comparative Literature, Children and Youth Literature, Social and Political History of Brazil and Portugal.

THIS THESIS IS IN THE EXAMINATION PROCESS Christian Frederik Louis Leipoldt was born in on 28 December 1880 in the Rhenish House in Worcester, Cape Province, the fourth child of the Reverend Christian Friedrich Leipoldt and Anna Meta Christina Leipoldt (born Esselen). His father left the mission field to take up the position of the dominee in the Dutch Reformed Church in Clanwilliam where the Leipoldt family went to live, from 1884. Leipoldt received his education from his father at home, on a broad range of subjects, including several languages and also in the natural sciences. He became interested in writing from a very young age and sent pieces of his writing for publication when still a boy. When he was fifteen he began sending dried plant specimens to Professor McOwan in Cape Town, from Clanwilliam. It was through his interest in botany that Leipoldt met Dr Harry Bolus, a life-long friend. Leipoldt wrote the Civil Service examinations in 1897 after which he went to Cape Town to work as a journalist. Living in Cape Town he served on the staff of the pro-Boer newspaper, The South African News from 1898 until it was closed down by the British authorities in 1902, when he travelled to Britain to look for work as a journalist in London. Soon after arriving there he took up the offer from Bolus who would lend him money to study medicine at Guy’s Hospital. It was more or less at this time that some of his early literature on the South African War was written, for instance, his well-known poem, Oom Gert Vertel (published in 1911). After successfully obtaining his MRCS medical qualification in 1907, winning gold medals for medicine and surgery in the process, he briefly served as Acting House Surgeon at Guy’s until 1908 when he travelled to Europe to work in a number of hospitals to receive further training. Later the same year he took up a post as medical adviser to J D Pulitzer, the American newspaper owner. Thereafter he worked as a doctor in London except for the time he proceeded on a four month visit to the East in 1912, the experience of which he penned in a manuscript entitled ‘Visit to the East Indies.’In 1914 he returned to South Africa to take up a post as Medical Inspector of Schools with the Transvaal Education Department. During the First World War in South Africa, he was drafted into the army as the personal medical doctor to the Prime Minister at the time, Genl Louis Botha. He resigned from his post as Medical Inspector in 1923 to take up an offer from Dr F V Engelenburg to serve on the editorial staff of the pro-Smuts newspaper De Volkstem,. He worked there until 1925 when he and the newly appointed editor Gustav Preller did not see eye to eye and it was then that he decided to return to Cape Town. His second Cape Town period (1925 – 1947) was characterized by the most prolific writing, during which he published a great many works across a broad range of topics. Furthermore, though he never married, he adopted Jeffrey Leipoldt, and took in a number of boys as boarders in his home ‘Arbury’ in Kenilworth, Cape Town. At the same time as he wrote most prolifically for a wide range of publications including many novels, he taught pediatrics at the University of Cape Town Medical School and practised as a pediatrician in the city. C Louis Leipoldt was a versatile person who published across a wide range of fields, to include literature, medical studies, letters to friends and associates, the history of wine and cookery, and what few seem to be aware of, his three English historical novels that make up The Valley, written in English between 1928 and 1932. Whilst Leipoldt’s early work such as Oom Gert Vertel gave voice to the suffering of the Afrikaner people, in The Valley, his voice is one of protest against the isolationist policies of the National Party of the 1920s. Whilst Leipoldt will be known for his work as the inaugural medical inspector of schools of the Transvaal Education Department, the inaugural lecturer in pediatrics at the University of Cape Town and Cape Town’s first practising pediatrician, he will also be known for his wide oeuvre as a writer. For example, he served as the Medical Association of South Africa’s first editor of its South African Medical Journal, a post he held for 18 years. Leipoldt never married and died on 13 April 1947 in Cape Town. His ashes were scattered in the Pakhuis Pass near Clanwilliam, where there is a memorial to his life.Thesis (DPhil)--University of Pretoria, 2012.

In the Time of the Butterflies é um romance da escritora dominicana-americana Julia Alvarez sobre a vida e a morte das Borboletas, Las Mariposas, codinome das irmãs Mirabal, membros de um movimento clandestino contra o regime ditatorial de Rafael Leonidas Trujillo na República Dominicana, que se tornaram símbolos da luta contra o Trujillato depois de serem assassinadas a mando do ditador. Essa dissertação tem como objetivo expor como forma literária e contexto social estão diretamente relacionados nesse romance. Ela defende a ideia de que o borramento de três gêneros literários distintos metaficção historiográfica, autobiografia e bildungsroman reflete o questionamento das fronteiras entre o privado e o público, o pessoal e o político, o eu e o outro, o individual e o coletivo, a literatura e a história, fato e ficção e história e subjetividade. Ela também tenta mostrar como a problematização dessas dicotomias implica na contestação de noções pré-concebidas de identidade, história e naçãoIn the Time of the Butterflies is a novel by the Dominican-American writer Julia Alvarez on the life and death of the Butterflies, Las Mariposas, codename of the Mirabal sisters in the national underground movement that fought against the dictatorial regime of Rafael Leonidas Trujillo in the Dominican Republic. The novel is an attempt to re-member the sisters assassination under the dictators orders, a story that has never been officially told. This dissertation aims to expose how literary form and political content are related in this novel. It argues that the blurring of three distinct literary genres historiographic metafiction, autobiography and the bildungsroman reflects the questioning of the boundaries between private and public, personal and political, self and other, individual and collective, literature and history, fact and fiction as well as history and subjectivity. It also tries to show how the problematizing of these dichotomies de-naturalizes received notions of identity, history and nation

This dissertation aims to analyze the novel Estação das Chuvas, by José Eduardo Agualusa, drawing on the assumptions of postcolonial theory and poetics of postmodernism in converging points of the two reviews. The aim is to demonstrate how the narrative fictionalizes the Angola s conflicting conditions, through historiographical metafiction, discussed by Linda Hutcheon. In this case, recovering the facts during the period pre and post-independence national. Estação das Chuvas is a novel built from the dialogue between fiction and history, therefore, the author turns to the past proposing its reconstruction under a critical bias about the discourses and power positions. In this return, issues are addressed for the Portuguese context of post-colonialism and conflicts of the war surrounding the political independence of Angola. Related to these historical periods, the narrative engenders selfreflection on literature and the prospect about the heterogeneous national identity, multifaceted and creole. In this sense, the reading focuses to analysis the resources used in the novel for the fictionalization of history and for the rethinking of social, cultural and political contexts of Angola.
Esta dissertação propõe uma análise do romance Estação das Chuvas, de José Eduardo Agualusa, valendo-se dos pressupostos da teoria pós-colonial e da poética do pósmodernismo em pontos convergentes das duas críticas. Busca-se demonstrar como a narrativa ficcionaliza as condições conflitantes presentes no território angolano por meio de recursos da metaficção historiográfica, definida por Linda Hutcheon. Neste caso, recuperando as situações ocorridas no período do pré e do pós-independência nacional. Estação das Chuvas é um romance construído a partir do diálogo entre ficção e história, pois o autor se volta para o passado propondo sua reconstrução sob um viés crítico a respeito dos discursos e as instâncias de poderes instaurados. Neste retorno, são abordadas questões referentes ao contexto do pós-colonialismo português e os conflitos da guerra que circundam a independência política de Angola. Atrelados a esses períodos históricos, a narrativa engendra a auto-reflexão sobre a literatura e a perspectiva de identidade nacional heterogênea, multifacetada e crioula. Neste sentido, a leitura centra-se na análise dos recursos utilizados na efabulação do romance para a ficcionalização da história e o repensar dos contextos social, cultural e político de Angola.

Starting from the analysis of a series of Hispanic historical novels and working on the presumption that History and Literature have always been living under a friendly relationship and keeping an intensive dialogue, we intent to point out in this work some of the resources and proceedings which are inherent to the historiographic fiction. In order to do so we set up ourselves the challenge to analyze more specifically under the concepts of the contemporary historical novels, the books El último crimen de Colón (200l), by the Argentinean Marcelo Leonardo Levinas and Colón a los ojos de Beatriz (2000), by the Spanish Pedro Piqueras. Both novels present as character the Admiral Christopher Columbus who is recreated in them through a poetic discourse. The analysis of the mentioned novels intends to point out some of the formal aspects used in their elaboration which turn out as being a historiographic metafiction discourse such as parody, carnivalization, and intertextuality, between others. Those procedures contribute to create new images of the discoverer of America. Using complex procedures of building up images of the discoverer these novels establish a process of questioning the historical truths concerning the man and his acts, calling into question even the historical sources of references which are constantly rewritten. In this way our intention is to establish the differences between the assertions of the historical discourse and the artistic discourse of the poetry under which the novels and the images of the discoverer here analyzed were created.

Previous issue date: 2010-12-06Literary production of the nineties and the early years of the twenty-first century is characterized the release of some literary genres, specifically what Literary Theory defined as being a novel, which do not fit the standards of Classical Literature or the peculiarities of the so-called Best Sellers. Therefore, this thesis has as its object of study the book Leopardos de Kafka, by Moacyr Scliar, which is part of the collection of detective novels Literature and Death, released by the publisher Companhia das Letras. This study aims to show the narrative resources and how they were used in the novel aforementioned, so that we can show that they break the existing boundaries between Classical Literature and Best Sellers and the standards of the traditional detective novel. For this objective to be achieved, the theoretical foundation of this thesis was based, mainly, on studies of the detective novel, done by Boileau and Narcejac (1991), Albuquerque (1979), Reimão (1983, 2005) and others; in researches on Best Sellers, done by Sodré (1978), Caldas (2000) among others and on studies of Historiographic Metafiction, postmodernism and narcissistic narrative, made by Hutcheon (1984, 2002).
O panorama da produção literária da década de noventa e dos primeiros anos do século XXI é marcado pelo lançamento de alguns gêneros literários, especificamente o que a Teoria Literária definiu como sendo romance, que não se ajustam nem às regras da Literatura Culta nem às peculiaridades do que se convencionou chamar de Literatura de Massa. Por isso, esta tese tem como objeto de estudo o livro Leopardos de Kafka, de Moacyr Scliar, pertencente à coleção de romances policiais Literatura ou Morte, lançada pela editora Companhia das Letras. O presente estudo objetiva mostrar os recursos narrativos e o modo como estes foram empregados, no romance citado, a fim de que se possa evidenciar que eles rompem com as fronteiras existentes entre a Literatura Culta e a Literatura de Massa e com as regras do romance policial tradicional. Para que esse objetivo fosse alcançado, a fundamentação teórica desta tese foi baseada, principalmente, nos estudos sobre o romance policial, feitos por Narcejac (1991), Albuquerque (1979), Reimão (1983, 2005) e outros; nas pesquisas sobre Literatura de Massa, realizadas por Sodré (1978), Caldas (2000) e outros e nos estudos sobre Metaficção Historiográfica, pós-modernismo e narrativa narcísica, realizados por Hutcheon (1984, 2002).

A presente dissertação discute a representação do passado em A Costa dos Murmúrios. Analisa-se a maneira pela qual o período colonial é retratado na obra, investigando as estratégias utilizadas por Lídia Jorge, para conceber um registro diferenciado desse tempo histórico. A história de Portugal é reavaliada criticamente, provocando uma ruptura com os padrões ideologicamente estabelecidos. Versões até então negligenciadas, passam a contribuir fortemente para um conhecimento pluralista do passado lusitano. O estudo revela a desconstrução do discurso oficial efetuada pelo romance, que relativiza as verdades propagadas pelo cânone. O trabalho verifica de que forma a narrativa de Jorge promove a articulação entre história e ficção, problematizando a tradicional distinção entre elas. Além disso, procura-se identificar como o romance A Costa dos Murmúrios dialoga com as inovadoras teses de Hayden White, Walter Benjamin, Linda Hutcheon, entre outras, surgidas no clima de renovação epistemológica que se instalou a partir de meados do século XXThe present dissertation discusses the past representation in A Costa dos Murmúrios. We intend to analyze the way by which the colonial period is pictured in the novel, searching for the strategies used by Lídia Jorge to conceive a distinctive record of this historical period. Portugals history is re-evaluated and questioned, what results in a rupture with the ideological established patterns. Versions so far neglected, start to contribute to a overall understanding of the portuguese past. This study reveals the deconstruction of the regimes ideological discourse performed by the novel, which relativize the truths radiated by the standard nations narrative. This work examines how Jorges narrative promotes the articulation between history and fiction, problematizing their traditional distinction. This analysis seeks to identify how the novel is related to the innovated theses of Hayden White, Walter Benjamin, Linda Hutcheon, among others, emerged as part of the epistemological renovation process of the early XX century

Previous issue date: 2012-09-27The purpose of this research is to analyze the thin lines that create a rupture in the plans of the narrative, both in the historical process (literary historiography) as its marginal position (historiographic metafiction) in Memorial do Convento of José Saramago. The discourse is ordered in order to consider what was in Memorial do Convento as a means to record the speech itself or the ideological expression of the ruling power, in view of the periodicity of historical fact and measured the impact that such actions resonated with the Portuguese Crown. The establishment of the narrow limits of historical appearance, whose statement reflects more than a simple plot, overcomes the essence of the analysis, assuming a comprehensive study under the conditions of construction of historical discourse, be it on the triad of power in historiography, or the margin metafictional utterances in this constitution. So are characterizations of "beings" discourse tied the dynamics of a historical era, an exhibition of the history; beyond that differentiate these subtle concepts for fiction / reality. Mankind is not exempt from its historical constitution because their brands are indelibly recorded in the literary, as this is in itself a representation of customs, ideas and thoughts, also, the philosophical expression of an era. The theoretical discourse and the weights will give under the foundations of Mikhail Bakthin (2010), Terry Eagleton (2001), Jean-Maurice Lefebve (1980), André Trouche (2006), Maurice Halbwachs (2006), Peter Burke (1992), and Linda Hutcheon (1991). Thus, history is written, narrated, and recreated based on fact. This way, you can have the conviction that past data that have come to us because they are not the facts themselves but representations of events that occurred from the perspective of the statement of a "being" discursive.
A finalidade desta pesquisa é analisar as tênues linhas que geram a ruptura nos planos da narrativa, tanto no processo histórico (historiografia literária), quanto a sua posição marginal (metaficção historiográfica) em Memorial do Convento de José Saramago. A discursividade ordena-se no intuito de ponderar o que se constituiu em Memorial do Convento como meio de registro do próprio discurso ou da expressão ideológica do poder vigente, tendo em vista a periodicidade do fato histórico mensurado e os impactos que tais ações repercutiram junto à Coroa portuguesa. O estabelecimento dos estreitos limites da aparência histórica, cujo enunciado reflete mais que um simples enredo, supera a essência da análise, pressupondo um estudo amplo sob as condições de construção do discurso histórico, seja ele diante da tríade do poder na historiografia, ou à margem desta constituição em enunciações metaficcionais. Assim, são caracterizações de seres discursivos atrelados as dinâmicas de uma época histórica, a uma exposição da própria história; isto além de estes se diferenciarem por sutis conceitos de ficção/realidade. A humanidade não se exime de sua constituição histórica, pois suas marcas estão indelevelmente registradas no âmbito literário, pois esta é em si uma representação de costumes, ideias e pensamentos, igualmente, a expressão filosófica de uma época. A discursividade e as ponderações teóricas dar-se-ão sob as bases de Mikhail Bakhtin (2010), Terry Eagleton (2001), Maurice-Jean Lefebve (1980), André Trouche (2006), Maurice Halbwachs (2006), Peter Burke (1992), e Linda Hutcheon (1991). Assim, a história é escrita, narrada, recriada e baseada em um fato. Desta forma, pode-se ter a convicção de que os dados passados que chegaram até nós, já não são os próprios fatos concretos e sim representações de fatos ocorridos sob a perspectiva do enunciado de um ser discursivo.

Full textAbstract:
A obra de Lídia Jorge, iniciada em 1980, com a publicação de O dia dos prodígios, constitui um dos mais significativos e relevantes conjuntos de escritos da literatura portuguesa contemporânea. Entre coletâneas de contos, peças de teatro, poemas e textos da literatura infantil, seus dez romances, publicados até 2011, versam sobre diversos aspectos da natureza humana e da vida portuguesa, especialmente no tocante aos fatos ocorridos após a Revolução dos Cravos (1974), compondo um dos mais importantes panoramas da evolução sociopolítica em Portugal desde então. O projeto de pesquisa que deu origem a esta tese buscou contemplar quais aspectos desse panorama aparecem com maior consistência ao longo de sua escrita romanesca e qual sua relação com os fatos Históricos do país, em sua fase democrática. Aliada a isso, a escrita de Lídia Jorge apresenta, ao longo dos dez romances, uma reflexão sobre o próprio ato de escrever e sobre a relação entre a História e sua representação na ficção contemporânea portuguesa. Assim, sob a perspectiva da metaficção historiográfica, conforme a definem Hutcheon (1991) e White (1995), esta tese faz uma leitura dessas dez obras, buscando compreender o projeto estético-ideológico da autora, como ele se consubstancia e de que maneira se desdobra, desde O dia dos prodígios até A noite das mulheres cantoras (2011). Este trabalho propõe que os romances de Lídia Jorge constituam, até agora, três diferentes fases: o percurso inicial, formado pelos quatro primeiros romances O dia dos prodígios (1980), O cais das merendas (1982), Notícia da cidade silvestre (1984) e A costa dos murmúrios (1988); a segunda fase, de que fazem parte A última dona (1992), O jardim sem limites (1995) e O vale da paixão (1998); e a terceira fase, constituída pelos romances O vento assobiando nas gruas (2002), Combateremos a sombra (2007) e A noite das mulheres cantoras (2011). Serviu como espinha dorsal para a construção deste estudo a imagem do bordado como técnica para a construção de imagens, as quais, em conjunto e por si sós, constituem um painel representativo de um povo, de sua História e de sua relação com sua própria identidade. Em suma, este trabalho busca caracterizar quem é e como escreve um dos mais importantes nomes da literatura portuguesa contemporânea.Lídia Jorges work, started in 1980 with the novel O dia dos prodígios, forms one of the most significant and relevant sets of literary pieces produced in the Portuguese contemporary literature. Among short stories, plays, poems, and books for children, her ten novels so far, published between 1980 and 2011, evolve around several aspects of human nature and of the Portuguese life, especially the ones occurred after the Carnation Revolution (1974) building one of the most important overviews of the Portuguese sociopolitical evolution since then. The research project which originated this dissertation aimed to comprehend which aspects of that overview show more consistently in her novelistic writing, as well as its relation with the historical events of the country, in its democratic period (after 1974). In addition, Lidia Jorges writing presents, throughout her so-far ten novels, a reflection upon the act of writing itself and its relation with History and how it is represented in Portuguese contemporary fiction. Therefore, under the perspective of historiographic metafiction, as defined by Hutcheon (1991) and White (1995), this dissertation provides an analysis of her so-far ten novels, aiming at understanding the writers aesthetic and ideological project, how it consubstantiates and how it develops, since O dia dos prodígios and A noite das mulheres cantoras (2011). This work proposes that Lidia Jorges novels be divided into three different moments: the initial phase, made up of her first novels O dia dos prodígios (1980), O cais das merendas (1982), Notícia da cidade Silvestre (1984), and A costa dos murmúrios (1988); the second moment, in which belong A última dona (1992), O jardim sem limites (1995), and O vale da paixão (1998); and the third moment, which includes O vento assobiando nas gruas (2002), Combateremos a sombra (2007), and A noite das mulheres cantoras (2011). As foundation for developing this study, it was used the image of the needlework as metaphor for building imagery which, as a set and each one by itself, constitute a representative panel of a people, their History, and their relation with their own identity. In short, this work aims to characterize who one of the most important of the Portuguese contemporary literature is and writes.

Full textAbstract:
O objetivo da presente dissertação é entender como ocorre a ficcionalização da memória da guerra colonial portuguesa nos romances Os Cus de Judas e A Costa dos Murmúrios e as estratégias usadas pelos autores para expressar essa memória em termos literários. Essas narrativas ao constatarem o colapso da antiga utopia colonialista do discurso nacional português, propõem uma revisão dos antigos valores nacionais e da retórica do regime salazarista, que afetou de forma profunda a vida dos autores. Em ambas as narrativas, a experiência da guerra é reconstruída através do testemunho e da reavaliação das reminiscências do passado das personagens, o que confere às obras um perfil confessional. Ao desmontar o tradicional relato histórico, relativizando verdades universalmente aceitas, a ficção visa preencher as lacunas do discurso histórico oficial, entendido como uma escritura dos vencedores. O confronto entre a memória individual resgatada pelas personagens e a memória legitimada da nação tem uma função redentora sobre o passado na medida em que interrompe a lógica dominante no momento presente. O estudo das referidas obras individualmente é concluído com uma análise sob o viés comparativo que visa estabelecer semelhanças e possíveis discrepâncias na forma de representação das memórias da guerra colonialThe aim of the present dissertation is to understand how fictionalization of the Portuguese colonial war memory occurs in the novels Os Cus de Judas e A costa dos Murmúrios and the strategies used by the authors to express this memory in literary terms.These narratives, atesting the collapse of the old colonialist utopia spread by the portuguese nations narrative, propose a re-evaluation of outdated national values as well as the rhetoric of Salazars regime, which affected profoundly these writers lives. In both narratives, the war experience is reconstructed through the characters testimonials and re-evaluation of their past reminiscences, what gives them a confessional profile. Dismounting the traditional historical narrative by the relativization of widely accepted truths, fiction intends to fill the gaps of the official historical record, seen as a discourse comiited with the dominant classes. The confrontation between the characters individual memory and the legitimized nation's memory, has a libertarian dimension about the past, as it interrupts the dominant logic of the present. The study of the refered novels individualy is concluded with a comparative analisys which stablish similarities and possible discrepancies between their representation of the colonial war memories

Full textAbstract:
Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal entender, a partir da análise do romance As naus, de António Lobo Antunes, as faces do sujeito pós-moderno e suas escolhas diante de uma sociedade líquida e fluida. Nesse romance, homens da contemporaneidade e mitos da história encontram-se em um tempo comum e convivem naturalmente na cidade de Lisboa. Alguns personagens desse romance, publicado em 1988, servem de base para a reflexão de uma sociedade fragmentada e marcada pelo deslocamento constante dos sujeitos que a compõem. A excentricidade é grande marca do homem que se encontra perdido no tempo e espaço retratado em As naus e essa marginalização contribui para a constante busca e necessidade de reconstrução da identidade nacional. A partir de conceitos como riso e carnavalização, é possível desconstruir fatos da história portuguesa, entendidos como verdade absoluta durante séculos, e que, na contemporaneidade, não apresentam o sentido de outrora. Desta maneira, esta dissertação mostra o humor presente na obra de António Lobo Antunes e desmistifica nomes, fatos e o império glorioso de Portugal; mostra ainda como na obra o passado é utilizado para se desconstruir criticamente o presente, através da metaficção historiográfica. Em suma, o desembarque desprovido de glória em Lisboa dos antigos heróis ilustres, cinco séculos depois de terem partido, é o fato culminante dessa elaborada antiepopeiaThrough the analysis of the novel Return of the Caravels by Antonio Lobo Antunes, this study aims to shed light on the nuances of a post-modern character and his decisions in the context of a liquid and fluid society. The novel, published in 1988, sets an anachronism in which individuals from contemporary times and ancient Portuguese myths naturally coexist in the city of Lisbon. Some of the characters in this novel are the focus of this study, which examines a fragmented society marked by the constant displacement of individuals who compose it. In The Return of the Caravels, eccentricity is the main quality of a man who is lost in time and space. The characters marginalization fuels a continuous attempt to reconstruct the national identity. Additionally, the concepts of laughter and carnivalization serve as tools to deconstruct facts of the Portuguese history that have been regarded as absolute truth. In contemporary society, however, meanings ascribed to those facts have shifted. Thus, this thesis not only highlights the use of humor in the work of Antonio Lobo Antunes but also demystifies names, facts, and the glory of the Portugal Empire. Furthermore, this thesis discusses how, through historiographic metafiction, past events are used for a critical deconstruction of the present society. In short, this intricate anti-epic novel culminates in the dishonored return of Portugals legendary heroes to the city of Lisbon five centuries later

This study investigates, in a comparative perspective, the process of rereading history and reviving the forgotten memory of Francoist Spain by the fictional discourse. Based on the novels Galíndez (1990) and Autobiografía del general Franco (1992) by Manuel Vázquez Montalbán, this research highlights the study of the historiographic metafiction and the role played by these works as aesthetic models for other narratives which would later arise in the Spanish literature, and which would also address the subject of the Spanish Civil War and the Francoism. This study investigates how these historical narratives arise in the context of an aesthetics of Postmodernity, without, however, letting the relativization of history fade the horrors of violence, repression and abuse of power seen in Trujillo‟s and Franco‟s dictatorial governments. Therefore, although these narratives by Manuel Vázquez Montalbán incorporate the typical aesthetic resources of historiographic metafiction, such as metafiction, parody, pastiche, irony, intertextuality and self-reflexivity, they do not abandon the characteristic of claiming for an aesthetics of ethics and an unofficial history of the dictatorships

Full textAbstract:
This thesis concerns the novelist John Fowles and analyses his seven novels in the order in which they were written. The study reveals an emergent artistic trajectory, which has been variously categorized by literary critics as postmodern. However, I suggest that Fowles's work is more complex and significant than such a reductive and simplistic label would suggest. Specifically, this study argues that Fowles's work contributes to the reinvigoration of the novel form by a radical extension of the modernist project of the literary avant-garde, interrogating various conventions associated with both literary realism and the realism of the literary modernists while still managing to evade a subjective realism. Of particular interest to the study is Fowles's treatment of his female characters, which evolves over time, indicative of an emergent quasi-feminism. This study counters the claims of many contemporary literary critics that Fowles's work cannot be reconciled with any feminist ideology. Specifically, I highlight the increasing centrality of Fowles's female characters in his novels, accompanied by a growing focus on the mysterious and the uncanny. Fowles's work increasingly associates mystery with creativity, femininity, and the mythic, suggests that mystery is essential for growth and change, both in society and in the novel form itself, and implies that women, rather than men, are naturally predisposed to embrace it. Fowles's novels reflect a worldview that challenges an over-reliance on the empirical and rational to the exclusion of the mysterious and the intuitive. I suggest that Fowles's novels evince an increasingly mythopoeic realism, constantly testing the limits of what can be apprehended and articulated in language, striving towards a realism that is universal and transcendent.

Full textAbstract:
Lorsqu’Agustina Bessa-Luís (1922-) réécrit l’Histoire elle est guidée par la volonté de dénoncer l’absence des femmes dans l’historiographie traditionnelle. Notre lecture envisage la réinscription des femmes dans l’Histoire portugaise, ceci à travers le prisme de la « déconstruction » de son discours. C’est à travers une remise en question de l’objectivité historique, par la subjectivité et la multiplicité des points de vue, ainsi que par un travail intertextuel sur les textes sources révélant qu’ils sont des constructions, que les romans deviennent des métafictions historiographiques postmodernes. Elles élaborent à travers la parodie et l’ambivalence une Histoire carnavalesque, dessinant une image peu commune du Portugal. Ensuite, la romancière oppose à la vision officielle, une histoire au féminin, ceci pour documenter l’expérience et l’identité des femmes dans leurs multiplicités. La question de la mémoire et des jalons inhérents à la condition des femmes révèle un processus de construction identitaire dégageant deux modes d’inscription féminins dans l’Histoire, l’un autorisé, l’autre transgressif. Puis, le principe de la domination masculine est remis en cause à travers la question de la virilité comme un impossible modèle à atteindre. Dans les romans de l’écrivaine, les hommes deviennent des figures ambigües, représentant le désordre et la ruine dans la société hégémonique. Fuyants mais réconciliés, ils reformulent la masculinité et signent la mort du patriarcat. Enfin, sont examinés les derniers fondements régissant la relation homme/femme : la question l’hétérosexualité obligatoire et celle du couple. L’auteure montre la fin de l’altérité radicale entre l’Autre et l’Un, provoquant une ressemblance entre les sexes et remettant en cause la notion même de couple. Ainsi, si elle a démontré au long de son oeuvre que l’on peut être femme et homme de diverses manières, elle soulignera aussi que dans le couple l’union est impossibleWhen Agustina Bessa-Luís rewrites History she is guided by the will to show the absence of women in History. Our reading will show the reintroduction of women in Portuguese History through the “descontruction” of its discourse. It’s through questioning the historic objectivity, by the variety of points of view and by an intertextual work with written sources, which reveal that they are human constructions, that the novels become postmodern historiographics metafictions. They elaborate through parody and ambivalence en carnival History, giving a different picture of Portugal. Then the novelist contrasts the official History with a Herstory in order to document the feminine experience and identity in all their multiplicities. The question of memory and phases that are inseparable from woman conditions, reveals a process of identical construction, which gives a report of two ways of feminine inscription into History, one authorize, the other transgressive. Then the principle of masculine domination is questioned through the matter of virility as an impossible model to attain. The men become ambiguous figures, who represent the disorder and decay of society. Fleing but reconciled they reform the masculinity and sign the death of patriarchate. Finally, the last foundations that govern the relation the relation between men and women, and the question of obligatory heterosexuality and the couple, are examined. The writer shows the end of radical otherness between the Other and the One which provokes a resemblance between sexes and questions the notion of the couple. Thus, if the author has shown in her novels, that we can be a man and a woman in different ways, she also shows that in a couple the union is impossible

This document aims at comprehending the formation process of the national awareness as well as the Brazilian identity in Ana Miranda?s works, focusing on the novel Desmundo (1996). To do so, it is taken into account the relevance of the important post-modern concept of ?presenting of the past? in the literary and contemporary texts and the way this concept introduces issues related to the process of construction of the national identity in the novels of historiographic metafiction. Therefore, based upon a descriptive and analytical bibliographical methodology, it is presented theoretical and methodological discussions raised by scholars of post-modernity, formation of awareness and national identity such as: Hutcheon (1991), Baudrillard (1991; 2001), Jameson (2002; 2006), White (2001), Renan (1997), Anderson (2008), Santos (1997), Guibernau (1997), Bhabha (1997; 1998), Hall (2003), Bauman (2005), and so forth. In the analysis of Miranda?s works it is discussed the formation of the Brazilian nation and the national awareness since its genesis ? the colonial period - , which is, broadly speaking, based on transgression, prejudice and discrimination, in a taken-as ?rigorous? classes structure and power abuse. Furthermore, it is examined the parody presence of the foundational myth, as well as the origin of the nation and the Brazilian identity, emphasizing the importance of the individual acknowledgement. To sum up, it can be noticed that the protagonist of the novel can be taken as a standard of representation of this process of identity acknowledgement. Such process is, at the same time, a plural, multifaceted and decentralized one.
O principal objetivo nesta disserta??o ? a compreens?o do processo de forma??o da consci?ncia nacional e da identidade brasileira na prosa da escritora Ana Miranda, com ?nfase no romance Desmundo (1996). Para tanto, considera-se a relev?ncia do importante conceito p?s-moderno de ?presentifica??o do passado? nos textos liter?rios contempor?neos, e nos modos como esse conceito introduz quest?es relativas ao processo de constru??o da na??o e da identidade nacional nos romances de metafic??o historiogr?fica. Portanto, apoiando-se numa metodologia bibliogr?fica, de cunho descritivo-anal?tica, s?o apresentadas discuss?es te?rico-metodol?gicas de estudiosos dos temas da p?s-modernidade, da forma??o da consci?ncia e da identidade nacional, a saber: Hutcheon (1991), Baudrillard (1991; 2001), Jameson (2002; 2006), White (2001), Renan (1997), Anderson (2008), Santos (1997), Guibernau (1997), Bhabha (1997; 1998), Hall (2003), Bauman (2005), dentre outros. Na an?lise da prosa mirandina, discute-se a forma??o da na??o brasileira e da consci?ncia nacional a partir de sua g?nese ? o Brasil Col?nia ?, que ?, em s?ntese, baseada na transgress?o, no preconceito e na discrimina??o, numa pseudo ?rigorosa? estrutura de classes e no abuso de poder. Examina-se, ainda, a presen?a par?dica do mito fundacional e de origem da na??o e da identidade do povo brasileiro, em que se enfatiza a import?ncia do autoconhecimento do indiv?duo. Observa-se, em suma, que a protagonista do romance pode ser considerada um modelo de representa??o desse processo de autoconhecimento identit?rio. Tal processo ?, ao mesmo tempo, plural, multifacetado e descentralizado.

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo analisar de que maneira a representação dos eventos históricos referentes ao cerco de Lisboa de 1147 empreendida nos textos historiográficos Conquista De Lisboa aos Mouros (1147) de Osberno, Crónica de cinco reis de Portugal atribuído a Fernão Lopes, Crónica de Dom Affonso Henriques, do Frei António Brandão, e História de Portugal: 1.ª época, desde a origem da monarquia até D. Afonso III de Alexandre Herculano, é reconfigurada na narrativa ficcional História do Cerco de Lisboa, do escritor português José Saramago. Especificamente, tencionou-se identificar, por meio do estudo de fontes históricas referentes à conquista de Lisboa de 1147, aspectos característicos da narrativa histórica oficial de tal evento histórico e da apresentação de suas personagens importantes; determinar em que medida textos historiográficos portugueses são intertextualmente apropriados pelo narrador de História do Cerco de Lisboa; averiguar qual é a atitude do narrador em relação ao discurso histórico oficial referente a tal momento histórico; verificar de que maneira as personagens históricas envolvidas no cerco e na tomada de Lisboa são representadas no romance; e determinar em que medida a reescrita do cerco de Lisboa empreendida no romance é dessacralizadora e paródica. A análise do romance foi norteada teoricamente, por um lado, por estudos referentes às muitas instâncias do cruzamento entre discurso literário e discurso histórico – especialmente por obras dos historiadores Hayden White, Paul Ricoeur, Carlo Ginzburg, Saul Friedländer e Dominick LaCapra – e, por outro, pela atribuição do conceito de metaficção historiográfica, de Linda Hutcheon, à narrativa saramaguiana. Depois do estudo do romance à luz das obras históricas, concluiu-se que o narrador de História do cerco de Lisboa reconfigura o intertexto historiográfico de maneiras distintas, que vão da reprodução literal de excertos e da referência nominal a seus autores até a absorção paródica de grandes blocos das obras de origem. Essas citações aparecem em geral emolduradas por comentários irônicos da instância narrativa, conferindo uma apreciação pouco sacralizada e bastante díspar da observada nas fontes históricas consultadas aos eventos e personalidades históricas importantes. Outra forma de retomada intertextual refere-se ao resgate de figuras menores do passado português, o soldado Mogueime e a princesa moura Oureana, e das vozes mouras silenciadas pela conquista. Além de problematizar o passado lusitano por meio da apropriação intertextual de obras que o enfocam, o narrador saramaguiano questiona os métodos de escrita historiográfica ao ficcionalizar o embate de pelo menos duas concepções de história distintas, uma representada pelo Historiador e outra por Raimundo Silva, bem como de sugerir a leitura do passado mediante a técnica do palimpsesto.This thesis aims to analyze how the representation of historical events related to the 1147 siege of Lisbon undertaken in the historiographical texts Conquista De Lisboa aos Mouros (1147) by Osberno, Crónica de cinco reis de Portugal by Fernão Lopes, Crónica de Dom Affonso Henriques by Frei António Brandão, and História de Portugal: 1.ª época, desde a origem da monarquia até D. Afonso III by Alexandre Herculano is reconfigured in the ficcional narrative History of the Siege of Lisbon, by Portuguese writer José Saramago. Specifically, we meant to identify, through the study of historical sources concerning the conquest of Lisbon, characteristic features of the official historical record of this historic event and how the its important characters are presented; to determine to what extent Portuguese historiographical texts are intertextualy appropriated by the History of the Siege of Lisbon narrator; to find out what is the narrator's attitude towards the official historical record concerning such historical moment; to verify how the historical characters involved in the siege and conquest of Lisbon are represented in the novel; and to determine to what extent the rewriting of the siege of Lisbon undertaken in the novel is unsanctified and parodic. The novel’s analysis was theoretically guided, on the one hand, for studies related to the various instances of crossings between literary discourse and historical discourse – especially works by historians Hayden White, Paul Ricoeur, Carlo Ginzburg, Saul Friedlander and Dominick LaCapra – and, on the other hand, the assignment of the concept of historiographic metafiction, by Linda Hutcheon, to Saramago’s narrative. After the study of the novel in the light of the historical sources, it was concluded that the History of the siege of Lisbon’s narrator reconfigures the historiographical intertext in different ways, ranging from literal reproduction of excerpts and nominal reference to their authors to the parodic absorption of large blocks of works. These quotes are usually framed by ironic comments of the narrative instance, giving an assessment that isn’t sanctified and is quite disparate from that given by the consulted historical sources to the historical events and its important figures. Another form of intertextual resumption refers to rescue of smaller figures of Portuguese past, as the soldier Mogueime and the Moorish princess Oureana, as well as the Moorish voices silenced by the conquest. Besides questioning the Lusitanian past through intertextual appropriation of sources, Saramago’s narrator questions the historiographical writing methods by fictionalizing the clash of at least two different conceptions of history, represented by the historian and by Raimundo Silva, as well as suggest the reading of the past throught the use of palimpsest technique.

Full textAbstract:
In Portugal, as in other countries, a common characteristic of many of the novels published in the past twenty years is the recourse to a repertoire of literary devices that recall those of the historical novel. On the basis of critical studies published in the 1990’s, and in particular Fernández Prieto’s Poética de la Novela Histórica, this thesis undertakes a study of the Portuguese historical novel with the aim of defining, to the extent possible, the limits of this literary genre, and to examine in detail some of its intrinsic—and pertinent—semantic and pragmatic traits: the setting of a fictional narrative in the past, the introduction of historical persons and events and, not the least, the transtextual relationship between the fictional and the historiographic text. Special attention is given to some of the more innovative forms of the contemporary historical novel, to highlight how by emphasising certain generic traits —that refer to the reader’s acquired knowledge— the author can compensate for the absence of others. Despite the inherent ”heterodoxy”, this device justifies grouping these novels under the general heading of the historical novel. The thesis explores the analogies between some of these innovative narrative strategies of the contemporary historical novel with transtextual practices characteristic of literature predating the 19th Century and by which a certain ”historical knowledge” is requisite for decoding the text. The thesis also establishes a set of generic traits that the historical novel shares with epic poetry. In light of these analogies, the thesis proposes a reading of Os Lusíadas as a historical poem. With this the author hopes to provide a contribution to a theory of historical fiction, understood as a genre encompassing, in addition to the novel, all forms of fictionalisation that rely on the historical discourse. © Mauro Cavaliere ISBN 91-7265-442-2
