| Resumo: | This thesis aims to analyze, in the fiction of Dalton Trevisan and Clarice Lispector,
particularly the short stories Rest Home, 92, Happy Anniversary e Trip to Petrópolis, the
representation old-age, trying to identify, comparatively both the similarity and singularities of
the works, refers to the problem of old-age through the ideology of modern social reality and
the way in which literature internalizes it. The paper seeks to show that literature also assumes
a social function in that it stimulates the reader to a greater perception of the world and of
himself, highlighting the ironic characteristics of the stories being studied to emphasize the
theme discussed. To discuss the representation of old-age, the present study takes as main
references Simone Beauvoir's thought in The Coming of Age (1990) and Ecléa Bosi in
Memories and Society, Memories of the Old (1994). In order to discuss the relationship
between literature and society, fiction and reality, we take as a theory the reflections of
Antonio Candido, present mainly in the book Literature and Society (2006), the thinking of
Raymond Williams in Culture and Materialism (2011) and Pável Nikolayev Medvedev, i n
The formal method in literary studies: critical introduction to a sociological poetics
(2012). Regarding the ironic marks or dimensions of the short stories, we will analyze them in
the light of Soren Kierkegaard's concepts in The concept of irony: constantly referred to
Socrates (2013) and Bete Brait in Ironia in polyphonic perspective (2008). The discussion
includes the way in which industrial society, guided by the prism of acceleration and
technological capital, transforms the elderly into a synonym of decadence by placing it on the
margins of this new development. The elderly, in contemporary, times reflect perspectives of
social analysis, which are based on the category of work and unlike modern Western societies,
in traditional societies is seen as knowledgeable and responsible greater by the acquired and
accumulated experience to be transmitted to future generations. The short stories analyzed,
Rest Clinic, 92, Happy Birthday e Trip to Petrópolis, reveal the incorporation of mistreatment
and lack of respect for elders, making us reflect on the modern social reality, expensive subject
to society. |
