Resumo: I will read the fascination with collectors and collecting in Ian McEwan’s Atonement (2001), Jeanette Winterson’s Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit (1985), Hilary Mantel’s Bring up the Bodies (2012), and David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas (2004) regarding at least two theoretical questions. Can collected things and objects ever assist in the imagination of more satisfying social roles and identities? Can collecting material traces lead to an accurate or truthful depiction of the past-present-future life writing? Those novels represent one of the most popular and critically acclaimed examples of the widespread interest in collecting apparent in contemporary British fiction.

As coisas e objetos coletados podem ajudar na imaginação de identidades e papéis sociais mais satisfatórios? A coleta de vestígios materiais pode levar a uma descrição precisa ou verdadeira do passado-presente-futuro na escrita de uma vida? Esses romances representam um dos exemplos mais populares e aclamados pela crítica do interesse generalizado pela coleção aparente na ficção britânica contemporânea.PUC Minas2020-12-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/scripta/article/view/2473210.5752/P.2358-3428.2020v24n52p502-527Scripta; Vol 24 No 52 (2020): Os poetas e a poesia moderna e contemporânea de língua portuguesa; 502-527Scripta; v. 24 n. 52 (2020): Os poetas e a poesia moderna e contemporânea de língua portuguesa; 502-5272358-34281516-4039reponame:Revista Scriptainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC Minas)instacron:PUC_MINSporhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/scripta/article/view/24732/17607Copyright (c) 2020 Editora PUC Minashttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSá, Luiz Fernando Ferreira2022-02-17T06:29:33Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/24732Revistahttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/scripta/userhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/scripta/oai||cespuc@pucminas.br2358-34281516-4039opendoar:2022-02-17T06:29:33Revista Scripta - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC Minas)false
