Resumo: It’s known that Luiz Ruffato’s purpose in his writing is the renewal of the classical realist project, including its political and social undertaking and formal experimentation that resonates with the experience of reality. They Were Many Horses is by now a critical model of the aesthetic explorations that reflect on the new conditions of contemporary reality. However, in his lastest words the author seems to have shifted away from the formal experimentation that distinguishes his most famous texts. In his latest three novels, the author claims only to transcribe, as an editor, the speech of real individuals. In so doing, he is he takes a step back from his fragmentary narratives that explore the the significance of language, to elaborate simple and oral-like narratives. The aim of this article is to frame these novels within questions of “new” realisms, discussing how they participate in the author’s project, and postulating that the reconstruction of a fragmented and ultimately unattainable subject is the main politic and aesthetic proposition of these novels.

Su novela eles eram muitos cavalos es paradigmática de las transformaciones estéticas que buscan responder a las nuevas condiciones de realidad. Sin embargo, en sus últimos textos el autor pareciera dar un vuelco a la experimentación formal que caracterizaba a los textos que le dieron renombre. En las tres novelas analizadas en este artículo el autor asegura transcribir relatos de individuos reales, donde solo participaría como editor; de este modo se aleja del relato fragmentario que explora la potencia significante del lenguaje y construye una narración simple y oralizada. La propuesta de este artículo es enmarcar estos textos dentro de la problemática de los realismos actuales, discutiendo su lugar dentro del proyecto ruffatiano, y planteando como hipótesis el lugar central del esfuerzo de reconstitución de un sujeto fragmentado e inalcanzable, como gesto estético y político en estas novelas.A poética escritural de Luiz Ruffato, é sabido, consiste na recuperação do projeto realista, do seu compromisso político e social, e da experimentação formal de estratégias da escrita que ecoem a experiência de realidade. Seu romance eles eram muitos cavalos resulta hoje paradigmático destas mutações estéticas que procuram dar resposta às novas condições de realidade. No entanto, nos seus últimos textos o escritor parece ter dado um giro na experimentação formal que distinguia os textos que deram-lhe renome. Nos três romances analisados neste artigo o autor assegura simplesmente transcrever relatos de indivíduos reais, participando unicamente como editor; assim, se afasta da narrativa fragmentaria que explora a força significante da linguagem e constrói um relato simples e oralizado. A proposta deste artigo é enquadrar estas narrativas dentro da problemática dos realismos atuais, problematizando o seu lugar dentro do projeto ruffatiano e propondo a hipótese do lugar central que tem a reconstituição do sujeito fragmentado e intangível como gesto estético e político nestes romances.Grupo de Estudos em Literatura Brasileira Contemporânea, da Pós-Graduação em Literatura da Universidade de Brasí­lia2020-11-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer reviewedEvaluado por los paresAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/estudos/article/view/3529110.1590/2316-40186115Estudos de Literatura Brasileira Contemporânea; No. 61 (2020): LGBT+ Literature - Amara Moira e Tatiana Nascimento (ed.); 1-14Estudos de Literatura Brasileira Contemporânea; n. 61 (2020): Literatura LGBT+ - Amara Moira e Tatiana Nascimento (org.); 1-142316-40181518-0158reponame:Estudos de Literatura Brasileira Contemporâneainstname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBspahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/estudos/article/view/35291/27992Copyright (c) 2020 Matias Rebolledo Dujisinhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMatias Rebolledo Dujisin2020-11-22T18:57:49Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/35291Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/estudosPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/estudos/oaiportaldeperiodicos@bce.unb.br||revistaestudos@gmail.com2316-40181518-0158opendoar:2020-11-22T18:57:49Estudos de Literatura Brasileira Contemporânea - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
