Resumo: This work aims to investigate the ways in which Kim Stanley Robinson’s novel The Ministry for the Future (2020) expands the possibilities of contemporary fiction in the face of the climate crisis. The text will be organized from two focus points: the legitimacy of the genre “literary fiction” to narrate the Anthropocene; and the questioning of the distinction between the concepts of nature and culture amidst the environmental catastrophe. Thus, this article intends to show that The Ministry for the Future presents reconfiguration strategies of the contemporary novel considering the context of climate change.

O texto será organizado a partir de dois focos de análise: a validade do gênero “ficção literária” para narrar o Antropoceno; e o questionamento da distinção entre os conceitos de natureza e cultura face à catástrofe ambiental. Sendo assim, este artigo pretende mostrar que The Ministry for the Future apresenta estratégias de reconfiguração do romance contemporâneo considerando o contexto da mudança climática.Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro2022-03-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartigo de literaturaartigos de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/6111610.12957/matraga.2022.61116Matraga - Revista do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras da UERJ; v. 29 n. 55 (2022): Miscelânea; 130-142MATRAGA - Journal published by the Graduate Program in Letters at Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ); Vol. 29 No. 55 (2022): Miscelaneous; 130-1422446-69051414-7165reponame:Matraga (Online)instname:Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)instacron:UERJporhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/matraga/article/view/61116/41606Gomes, Anderson Soaresinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-05-27T10:06:42Zoai:ojs.www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br:article/61116Revistahttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matragaPUBhttps://www.e-publicacoes.uerj.br/index.php/matraga/oai||letrasmatraga@uerj.br2446-69051414-7165opendoar:2022-05-27T10:06:42Matraga (Online) - Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ)false
