Resumo: The aim of this article is to explore a relationship that has not yet been examined in the contemporary debate on law and literature. The law can, indeed, constitute the subject matter of a novel. But as we argue in this article, the law can also determine what counts, and what does not count as a novel. We defend this thesis by analyzing Ian McEwan’s The Children Act (2014) and David Foster Wallace’s The Pale King (2011). In the context of contemporary cultural production, the law has the power and the legitimacy to create what we call the space of fiction. As we intend to show, the law can create the demarcation line between fictional and non-fictional narratives.

A tese aqui defendida é que o direito, no âmbito da produção cultural contemporânea, e mais especificamente nos romances A balada de Adam Henry (2014) de Ian McEwan, e O rei pálido (2011) de David Foster Wallace, pode não apenas ser objeto de uma narrativa de ficção. O direito, tal como pretendemos mostrar neste artigo, muitas vezes tem também o poder de criar o espaço da ficção. Compete muitas vezes ao direito, no contexto da produção cultural contemporânea, caracterizar uma dada narrativa como uma obra de ficção.Rede Brasileira Direito e Literatura (RDL)2019-06-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresPesquisa em teoria do direito e teoria literáriaapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.rdl.org.br/anamps/article/view/43310.21119/anamps.51.215-234ANAMORPHOSIS - International Journal of Law and Literature; Vol. 5 No. 1 (2019): janeiro-junho; 215-234ANAMORPHOSIS – Revista Internacional de Derecho y Literatura; Vol. 5 Núm. 1 (2019): janeiro-junho; 215-234ANAMORPHOSIS – Revue internationale de droit et littérature; Vol. 5 No 1 (2019): janeiro-junho; 215-234ANAMORPHOSIS - Rivista Internazionale di Diritto e Letteratura; V. 5 N. 1 (2019): janeiro-junho; 215-234ANAMORPHOSIS - Revista Internacional de Direito e Literatura; v. 5 n. 1 (2019): janeiro-junho; 215-2342446-80882446-808810.21119/anamps.51.2019reponame:Anamorphosis (Porto Alegre)instname:Rede Brasileira Direito e Literatura (RDL)instacron:RDLporenghttps://periodicos.rdl.org.br/anamps/article/view/433/pdf_1https://periodicos.rdl.org.br/anamps/article/view/433/pdfCopyright (c) 2019 ANAMORPHOSIS - Revista Internacional de Direito e Literaturainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAraujo, Marcelo deSavelli, Clara2019-07-17T16:02:18Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/433Revistahttp://rdl.org.br/seer/index.php/anampsONGhttps://periodicos.rdl.org.br/anamps/oairevista@rdl.org.br||henriete@rdl.org.br2446-80882446-8088opendoar:2019-07-17T16:02:18Anamorphosis (Porto Alegre) - Rede Brasileira Direito e Literatura (RDL)false
