Resumo: This essay analyzes six short stories written and published in Brazil during the darkest decade of the military government, the years right after Institutional Act #5 was issued – roughly, the years between 1968 and 1979, which historian Elio Gaspari calls the decade of “unabashed dictatorship” (2002), when institutionalized violence and torture were used by the authoritarian régime as an instrument to repress and exterminate opposition to military rule. Through the analysis of short stories by Flávio Moreira da Costa, Luiz Fernando Emediato and Roberto Drummond, the prevalence of themes related to the political scenario in the production of short fiction in Brazil at that time is made evident, as a fact that contributed to the permanence and renewal of Brazilian literature in that period.

O exame de contos de Flávio Moreira da Costa, Luiz Fernando Emediato e Roberto Drummond evidencia a prevalência de temas relacionados ao autoritarismo na ficção brasileira como fato que contribuiu para a permanência e a renovação da literatura naquele período.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2012-09-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/7539810.5902/1679849X75398Literatura e Autoritarismo; n. 10 (2012): Dossiê "Estudos de literatura comparada"; 131-1571679-849X1679-849Xreponame:Literatura e Autoritarismoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/75398/52482Copyright (c) 2012 Literatura e Autoritarismoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCunha, João Manuel dos Santos2023-05-24T02:36:22Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/75398Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/indexPUBhttp://cascavel.ufsm.br/revistas/ojs-2.2.2/index.php/LA/oaigla@mail.ufsm.br||jlourique@pq.cnpq.br1679-849X1679-849Xopendoar:2023-05-24T02:36:22Literatura e Autoritarismo - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
