Resumo: DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.35572/rlr.v9i3.1793 This article aims at demonstrating the intermedial references of the play King Lear (1606), by William Shakespeare, in the thematic structure of the TV series Empire (2015-, FOX), conceived by Lee Daniels and Danny Strong. Our working hypothesis is based on the recognition of premeditated correspondences between the composition structures of the Shakespearean text and the composition structures of the TV series in question. Based on the thematical mirroring mechanism used by the authors of the series, widely known by the audience, we aim to present the similarities between these objects, using, for this purpose, the theoretical advances developed by the studies on intermediality – mainly those by Irina Rajewsky (2012) –, and specifically directed to literary studies. To illustrate, in a general way, the process of mobilizing intermedial references of Shakespeare's work, we also present a brief introduction on the relations between American television and the English playwright, as well as a display of the cultural products that constitute our proposal for dialogue.

Nossa hipótese de trabalho se fundamenta no reconhecimento de correspondências premeditadas entre as estruturas de composição do texto shakespeariano e as estruturas de composição da narrativa seriada em questão. A partir do mecanismo de espelhamento temático utilizado pelos autores do seriado, de amplo e notório conhecimento público, buscamos apresentar as similaridades entre estes objetos, utilizando, para isso, dos préstimos teóricos dos estudos sobre a intermidialidade – sobretudo os realizados por Irina Rajewsky (2012) –, e direcionados, especificamente, aos estudos literários. Para ilustrar, de forma geral, o processo de mobilização de referências intermidiáticas à obra de Shakespeare, apresentamos uma breve introdução sobre as relações entre a televisão americana e o dramaturgo inglês, assim como uma mostra dos produtos culturais que compõem a nossa proposta de diálogo.Editora Universitaria da UFCG2023-09-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.editora.ufcg.edu.br/index.php/RLR/article/view/1207Revista Letras Raras; Vol. 9 No. 3 (2020): Intermidialidade e referências intermidiáticas; Port. 124-139 / Eng. 121-135Revista Letras Raras; Vol. 9 Núm. 3 (2020): Intermidialidade e referências intermidiáticas; Port. 124-139 / Eng. 121-135Revista Letras Raras; Vol. 9 No 3 (2020): Intermidialidade e referências intermidiáticas; Port. 124-139 / Eng. 121-135Revista Letras Raras; v. 9 n. 3 (2020): Intermidialidade e referências intermidiáticas; Port. 124-139 / Eng. 121-1352317-2347reponame:Revista Letras Rarasinstname:Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG)instacron:UFCGporhttps://revistas.editora.ufcg.edu.br/index.php/RLR/article/view/1207/1067https://revistas.editora.ufcg.edu.br/index.php/RLR/article/view/1207/1068© 2023 Revista Letras Rarashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLima, Guilherme Fernandes Silvares, Lavinia 2024-01-05T00:10:18Zoai:ojs2.revistas.editora.ufcg.edu.br:article/1207Revistahttps://revistas.editora.ufcg.edu.br/index.php/RLRPUBhttps://revistas.editora.ufcg.edu.br/index.php/RLR/oai||letrasrarasufcg@gmail.com2317-23472317-2347opendoar:2024-01-05T00:10:18Revista Letras Raras - Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG)false
