Resumo: This study aims to reflect on the notion of life and sacredness, in the second narrative of the novel Um homem é muito pouco (2010), by the Maranhão writer Ronaldo Costa Fernandes. In it, we verify how the sacrum opens possibilities to think the framing of the body (the grain) based on the tragic condition of the being (the straw). Reflecting on the sacred, considered here only as a rhetorical artifice of life framing, we depart from the notion of citizenship - a term viewed as a strategy of control over the body. So, from this perspective, we approach the categories sacrum and profanation, in order to show how the characters can rebel against the inebriation of power, which makes them easily killable subjects. The theoretical iscourses of Giorgio Agamben in Homo Sacer: sovereign power and naked life (2010) and the use of bodies (2017) offer the framework for the approach.

Nele buscarei verificar como o sacro abre possibilidades para pensar o enquadramento do corpo (o grão), a partir da condição trágica do ser (a palha). Para falar do sagrado, pensado aqui apenas como um artificio retórico de enquadramento da vida, partirei da noção de cidadania - termo que visualizo como uma estratégia de controle sobre o corpo. Assim, é sob essa perspectiva que me aproximo das categorias: sacro e profanação, para mostrar como os personagens conseguem rebelar-se à embriaguez do poder, o que os tornam sujeitos facilmente matáveis. Para falar dessas categorias, recorro aos discursos teóricos de Giorgio Agamben em Homo Sacer: o poder soberano e a vida nua (2010) e O uso dos corpos (2017).Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2019-08-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/3434110.5902/1679849X34341Literatura e Autoritarismo; n. 21 (2019): Dossiê "Catástrofe e Biopolítica na Literatura: Contribuições para a crítica literária"1679-849X1679-849Xreponame:Literatura e Autoritarismoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/34341/p.%2091-104Copyright (c) 2019 Literatura e Autoritarismoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBertolino, Linda Maria de JesusLima, Rogério Silva2023-05-24T03:08:01Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/34341Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/indexPUBhttp://cascavel.ufsm.br/revistas/ojs-2.2.2/index.php/LA/oaigla@mail.ufsm.br||jlourique@pq.cnpq.br1679-849X1679-849Xopendoar:2023-05-24T03:08:01Literatura e Autoritarismo - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
