Resumo: | This paper explores the relation between body and language as presented in Bernardo Carvalho´s Nove noites, and in João Guimarães Rosa´s “Meu tio o iauaretê”. In Carvalho's novel, narrators, orchestrated by the narrator-novelist, try to clarify, from multiple reports, the suicide of Buell Quain, who mutilated his own body, annihilating himself in response to a conflict between his desires and the civilizing process that influences and constitutes the existence of each subject. In Rosa's short story, on the other hand, the reader comes across a narrator-writer who, staging the oscillating discourse of the jaguar, reports how he killed his interlocutor to save himself from being slain. The narrative is therefore about the annihilation of a body that, as a last resort to survival, turns to the animalistic nature, in the face of language´s impossibility to perform satisfactorily before the (dominant) other´s language. For this purpose, Émile Benveniste´s conception of language, Wolfgang Iser´s notion of fiction, and an essay about Guimarães Rosa´s short story written by Valquiria Wey are used as Reading resources |

No romance de Carvalho, narradores, agenciados pelo narrador-romancista, tentam esclarecer, a partir de múltiplos relatos, o suicídio de Buell Quain, que mutilou o próprio corpo, aniquilando-se, como resposta a um conflito entre seus desejos e o processo civilizatório que incide na existência de cada sujeito e a constitui. No conto de Rosa, por sua vez, o leitor depara com um narrador-escritor que, encenando o discurso oscilante do onceiro-jaguar, relata como o matou para salvar-se de ser devorado. Trata-se, portanto, de uma narrativa sobre a aniquilação de um corpo que, como último recurso à sobrevivência, volta-se à natureza animalesca, diante da incidência da linguagem impossível de realizar-se satisfatoriamente na língua (dominadora) do outro. Como recursos a essa reflexão, são agenciadas a concepção de linguagem de Benveniste (1989a, 1989b, 1976a, 1976b), a noção de ficção de Iser (2002) e a leitura do conto de Rosa feita por Wey (2005).Edunisc2017-05-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/signo/article/view/871210.17058/signo.v42i74.8712Signo; v. 42 n. 74 (2017); 84-951982-2014reponame:Signo (Santa Cruz do Sul.
