Resumo: The paper discusses a concept which is present in recent studies in the fields of Communication and Culture: affect. It refers to the Deleuzean concepts of affect, and discusses questions of language concerning affects. From those philosophical basis and discussions, complex affects – named as “fear” – are examined, by means of a close reading of Franz Kafka’s short story “Der Bau/The Construction” (1923). This fictional text articulates notions such as fear, insecurity and risk to the need for constructing houses and habitats. This theme is related to a Nietzschean essay in which the philosopher evaluates different types of constructions and relates them to vital pulsions. Following Nietzsche, two constructions are used as inspirations to the theoretical work: scaffold and toy.

Partindo da filosofia deleuzeana, tematiza o conceito, discute questões de linguagem e privilegia um feixe de afetos, provisoriamente chamado de “medo”, a partir do conto de Kafka intitulado A construção (1923). A leitura do conto permite articular medo, insegurança e risco ao gesto de construir moradas ou habitats. O tema é desdobrado em um texto de Nietzsche no qual se avaliam diferentes tipos de construção, vinculando-os a certas perspectivas e pulsões vitais. Na esteira de Nietzsche, elegem-se duas construções como apostas para a visada teórica: andaime e brinquedo.PEPG COS-PUC-SP2017-07-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/galaxia/article/view/28395Galaxia; No. 35 (2017)GALÁxIA.
