Resumo: The concept of contingency is an essential part of the theory developed by German sociologist Niklas Luhmann (1927-1998). It conceives the production of sense and the perception of the actual as one among other possible and potential selections. While other functional fields like law or science try to maintain a minimal degree of contingency in order to preserve their functionality, the system of art, on the other hand, discusses and potentiates the contingency of the selective processes of sense. Literature emerges as a second order observation that oscillates between the actual and the potential and, pointing to the blind spot of the observation, sharpens the awareness of other possible forms of order.

Enquanto outras áreas funcionais como o direito ou a ciência buscam manter o grau de contingência ao mínimo em nome de sua funcionalidade, o sistema da arte justamente tematiza e potencializa o caráter contingente dos processos seletivos de gerar sentido. A literatura, por sua vez, apresenta-se como observação de segunda ordem que oscila entre o atual e o potencial e, apontando para o ponto cego da observação, aguça o olhar para formas possíveis de ordem.Universidade Federal Fluminense2009-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33108Gragoatá; Vol. 14 No. 27 (2009): Contingency and expressionGragoatá; v. 14 n. 27 (2009): Contingência e expressão2358-41141413-9073reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33108/19095Copyright (c) 2019 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKorfmann, MichaelKepler, Filipe Kegles2020-08-18T23:37:27Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/33108Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2020-08-18T23:37:27Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false
