Resumo: This article discusses how Lima Barreto constructed a politics of the senses, that is, how he reflected on the theme of the body in space in the novel Numa e a Ninfa, although other manuscripts by the author are mobilized for the articulation of the theme. The reports produced by the man from Rio de Janeiro about the parliamentary space allow us to understand how the corporeity of an era – the Rio de Janeiro of the First Republic – gains visibility and sayability in its fortune. Thus, this article points out that Barret’s political criticism, generally located by researchers of his work in the discussion of ethics and the commitment of the aediles with public affairs, allows reflection on the theater of emotions and gestures of the rulers. The gaze and oral expressiveness of the congressmen are evaluated in this article as a way of checking the functioning of the politics of the senses, intended in Barreto’s narratives to deal with the bodies of men and women in and through space. As a result, it was evaluated that the study of expressiveness developed by Barreto, in addition to being a way of seeing the world, translates perceptions that the body is a product of culture that can be modulated by space.

Os relatos que o carioca produziu acerca do espaço parlamentar permitem entender como a corporeidade de uma época – o Rio de Janeiro da Primeira República – ganha visibilidades e dizibilidades em sua fortuna. Desse modo, este artigo pontua que a crítica política barretiana, geralmente situada pelos pesquisadores de sua obra na discussão sobre ética e no empenho dos edis com a coisa pública, permite refletir sobre o teatro de emoções e gestualidades dos governantes. O olhar e a expressividade oral dos congressistas são avaliados neste artigo como forma de conferir o funcionamento dessa política dos sentidos, intencionada nas narrativas de Barreto a respeito dos corpos de homens e mulheres no e pelo espaço. Como resultado, avaliou-se que o estudo da expressividade desenvolvido por Barreto, além de ser uma maneira de ver o mundo, traduz percepções de que o corpo é um produto da cultura modulável pelo espaço.Sociedade Brasileira de Teoria e História da Historiografia, Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto, Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro2023-06-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo Originalapplication/pdfhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/article/view/198510.15848/hh.v16i41.1985História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; Vol. 16 No. 41 (2023); 1-29História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; Vol. 16 Núm. 41 (2023); 1-29História da Historiografia: International Journal of Theory and History of Historiography; v. 16 n. 41 (2023); 1-291983-9928reponame:História da Historiografiainstname:Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP)instacron:UFOPporhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/article/view/1985/1021Copyright (c) 2023 Thiago Sousahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSousa, Thiago2023-08-28T00:51:58Zoai:ojs.www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br:article/1985Revistahttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revistaPUBhttps://www.historiadahistoriografia.com.br/revista/oaivaldei354@gmail.com || historiadahistoriografia@hotmail.com1983-99281983-9928opendoar:2023-08-28T00:51:58História da Historiografia - Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (UFOP)false
