Resumo: | This paper focuses on the space as a significant aspect for the establishment of the fantastic atmosphere in the tale "The ants" of the work Mysteries (1998) by Lygia Fagundes Telles. In the analysis of the chosen narrative, we defend the hypothesis that the fictional space and the setting are elements that anticipate traces of the plot to the reader, besides contributing decisively to the configuration of the characters, especially, concerning the irruption of the fantastic. In the story, two students witness the mysterious reconstitution of a dwarf skeleton in a sinister hostel, supposedly implemented by ants, at night. In the construction of the tale, there are thematic and formal procedures that stimulate the fantastic atmosphere, like the remarkable appreciation of the night, the obscure world and a possible return of the dead, such as Ceserani (2006) points out when regarding the fantastic. In this perspective, this study will take into consideration the definitions about the fantastic formulated by the mentioned scholar as guiding references, as well as the propositions of Todorov (1975), Garcia (2007) and Roas (2014). The work of Freud (1919) which postulates about the stranger is also part of our theoretical framework. Regarding the space category, in addition to classical references from Theory of Literature, Bachelard (1989) and Foucault (2009) conceptions are used to understand the arranged game between real and unreal, between symbolic and poetic. Finally, we try to understand Lygia Fagundes Telles"™ fiction focusing on the fantastic, ingeniously expressed on the tale. |

Este trabalho focaliza o espaço como aspecto significativo para o estabelecimento da atmosfera fantástica no conto "As formigas" da obra Mistérios (1998) de Lygia Fagundes Telles. Na análise da narrativa eleita, defendemos a hipótese de que o espaço ficcional e o ambiente são elementos que antecipam para o leitor traços do enredo, além de contribuírem decisivamente para a configuração das personagens, sobretudo, no que se refere à irrupção do fantástico. No relato, em uma pensão sinistra, duas estudantes acompanham a misteriosa reconstituição de um esqueleto de anão, supostamente realizada por formigas, durante a noite. Na construção da história narrada, verificam-se procedimentos temáticos e formais catalisadores da atmosfera fantástica, como a valoração marcante da noite, do mundo obscuro e um possível retorno dos mortos, tal como ressalta Ceserani (2006) ao referir-se ao fantástico. Nessa perspectiva, faremos um estudo do conto lygiano tendo como referências norteadoras as definições acerca do fantástico formuladas pelo estudioso referido, bem como as proposições de Todorov (1975), Garcia (2007) e Roas (2014), somadas ao que Freud (1919) postula a respeito do estranho. No que se refere à categoria espaço, além de referências clássicas da Teoria da Literatura, recorre-se í s concepções de Bachelard (1989) e Foucault (2009) para compreender o imbricado jogo entre o real e o irreal, entre o simbólico e o poético. Por fim, busca-se compreender a ficção de Lygia Fagundes Telles tendo como foco o fantástico, engenhosamente expresso no conto em estudo.Edições UERN2016-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.apps.uern.br/index.php/RCOL/article/view/127COLINEARES; v. 3 n. 2 (2016): Revista Colineares; 79-932357-8203reponame:Revista Colinearesinstname:Universidade do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte (UERN)instacron:UERNporhttps://periodicos.apps.uern.br/index.php/RCOL/article/view/127/89Copyright (c) 2016 Antonia Marly Moura da Silva, Monica Valéria Moraes Marinhohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Antonia Marly Moura daMarinho, Monica Valéria Moraes2023-07-31T16:17:54Zoai:ojs2.periodicos.apps.uern.br:article/127Revistahttp://periodicos.uern.br/index.php/colinearesPUBhttp://periodicos.uern.br/index.php/colineares/oai||rev.colineares@uern.br2357-82032357-8203opendoar:2024-05-17T13:37:34.903158Revista Colineares - Universidade do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte (UERN)false |
