Resumo: The rupture with traditions and the disappearance of the feeling of history meant that the new social fabric began to gradually lose the need to keep the past and began to live in a continuous present. These signs can be easily observed in art, literature, and social dynamics as a whole, as well as revealing the moment of exhaustion of the modern project of society and the advance of a new social order arising from postmodern conditions. In this sense, this article proposes to analyze utopia and dystopia in the novel They Were Many Horses, by Luiz Ruffato as a legitimizing aspect of postmodernity, as well as the purposeful pastiche used by the author as a way to reveal contemporary social reality. To this end, it verifies the characteristics of modernity in the work of Oswald de Andrade, Memórias Sentimentmentales de João Miramar, and the trajectory to reach postmodernity revealed in the narrative of Luiz Ruffato, in addition to presenting consumption as a triumph of of postmodernity and an important cause of utopia and dystopia in the work.

Estos signos pueden observarse fácilmente en el arte, la literatura y las dinámicas sociales en su conjunto, además de revelar el momento de agotamiento del proyecto moderno de sociedad y el avance de un nuevo orden social surgido de las condiciones posmodernas. En este sentido, este artículo se propone analizar la utopía y la distopía en la novela de Luiz Ruffato Eran muchos caballos como aspecto legitimador de la posmodernidad, así como el pastiche intencionado utilizado por el autor como forma de revelar la realidad social contemporánea. Para ello, verifica las características de la modernidad en la obra de Oswald de Andrade, Memorias sentimentales de João Miramar, y la trayectoria para llegar a la posmodernidad revelada en la narrativa de Luiz Ruffato, además de presentar el consumo como un triunfo de la posmodernidad y una causa importante de utopía y distopía en la obra.  O rompimento com as tradições e o desaparecimento do sentimento de história fizeram com que o novo tecido social começasse a perder, aos poucos, a necessidade de guardar o passado e passasse a viver um presente contínuo. Esses sinais podem ser observados na arte, na literatura e na dinâmica social como um todo, assim como revelam o momento de esgotamento do projeto moderno de sociedade e o avanço de uma nova ordem social proveniente das condições pós-modernas. Neste sentido, este artigo propõe analisar utopia e distopia no romance “Eles eram muitos cavalos”, de Luiz Ruffato, como aspecto legitimador da pós-modernidade, assim como o pastiche proposital utilizado pelo autor como forma de revelar a realidade social contemporânea. Para isso, verifica as características da modernidade na obra de Oswald de Andrade, Memórias Sentimentais de João Miramar e a trajetória para chegar a pós-modernidade revelada na narrativa de Luiz Ruffato, além de apresentar o consumo como triunfo da pós-modernidade e causador importante de utopia e distopia na obra.Editora Unimontes2023-12-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/article/view/713810.46551/issn2179-6807v29n2p114-127Revista Desenvolvimento Social; v. 29 n. 2 (2023): Desenvolvimento Social: Interseccionalidades, decolonialidades e espaços insurgentes; 114-1272179-68071982-8608reponame:Revista Desenvolvimento Social (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (UNIMONTES)instacron:UNIMONTESporhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/article/view/7138/7089https://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/article/view/7138/7090Copyright (c) 2023 Andréa Nogueira do Amaralhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNogueira do Amaral, Andréa2023-12-21T21:49:44Zoai:ojs2.periodicos.unimontes.br:article/7138Revistahttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/indexPUBhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/rds/oairevista.desenvolvimento@unimontes.br2179-68071982-8608opendoar:2023-12-21T21:49:44Revista Desenvolvimento Social (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (UNIMONTES)false
