A equivalência das janelas em Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas

Abstract

In this work, we analyze the novel Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas (1881), by Machado de Assis, from the investigation of "window equivalence" as a narrative method that breaks the linearity of the relay, blends the planes, and creates the image of a light, loose and irresponsible writing that approaches contemporary writing models. To arrive at these observations, we understand the sign windows first as a "sign of evidence," according to Othon M. Garcia (1958). Then, as a textual network that resembles digital hypertext, according to the philosophical assumptions of Pierre Lévy (1996). We also talk with Sérgio Paulo Rouanet (2007) and Marta de Senna (2008) asthey both see the current machadian text for the volubility of the narrator and for the reader's participation in the compositional process. Finally, we reflect on the mobility of the text and its editing work through the perspectives of Marc Augé (2010) and Regina Zilberman (2004), respectively. Thus, we investigated the windows as a way of operating an attitude towards the world and literature in the narrative that is updated by reading.
