Resumo: The works The Book of Chameleons and General Theory of Oblivion, by José Eduardo Agualusa, present animal characters and relations between humans and non-human animals that go against traditional philosophical and interpretative theories, allowing perspectives that break with the notions created by the Cartesian and structuralist matrix theories. Donna Haraway suggested that the cyborg appears in myth precisely where the boundary between human and animal is transgressed, just as the indiscernibility lines created by Agualusa’s characters, which establish an animal (po)ethics and, therefore, cyborg. This paper aims to discuss some of these animal – or animots – occurences in Agualusa’s works.

Como sugeriu Donna Haraway, o ciborgue aparece como mito precisamente onde a fronteira entre o humano e o animal é transgredida, como se passa nas zonas de indiscernibilidade das personagens de Agualusa, que estabelecem uma (po)ética animal e, portanto, ciborgue. Este artigo tem como intuito trazer à discussão algumas dessas ocorrências animais – ou animots – nas duas obras em questão.UFSC2017-06-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/2175-8026.2017v70n2p8310.5007/2175-8026.2017v70n2p83Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; Vol. 70 No. 2 (2017): Pós-Humanismo; 83-92Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; v. 70 n. 2 (2017): Pós-Humanismo; 83-922175-80260101-4846reponame:Ilha do Desterroinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/2175-8026.2017v70n2p83/34265Copyright (c) 2017 Luana Barossiinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBarossi, Luana2019-01-25T09:17:27Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/47613Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterroPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/oaiilha@cce.ufsc.br||corseuil@cce.ufsc.br||ilhadodesterro@gmail.com2175-80260101-4846opendoar:2019-01-25T09:17:27Ilha do Desterro - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
