Resumo: This work corresponds to an analysis of the short story The Crocodile by Dostoiévski and has as a theoretical direction mainly the concepts of M. M. Bakhtin about dialogic relationships, Menippean satire and open ending, besides his concepts of aesthetics and ethics, author and hero as well as the notions of discursive plan and construction of meaning. Moreover, the analysis uses, Bakhtin (2010a, 2010b, 2010c, 2011a, 2011b), Schnaiderman (1983, 2011) and methodologically consists of the interpretation – understood as our active response to the utterance in study – of the constituent elements of the author’s discursive plan, of the established dialogic relationships and, consequently, of the production of the meaning of the utterance. The analysis also compares the short story The Crocodile with to other works by Dostoiévski, mainly to approach the peculiarities present in them, such as elements of the menippea, the frontier between artistic and prosaic prose and unfinished ending. The conclusion of the article points in the direction of the relevance of taking into account, in an accurate reading, the elements of the constitution of the short story The Crocodile as located in some borderline point between the ethical and the aesthetic act.

A análise recorre, além de a Bakhtin (2010a, 2010b, 2010c, 2011a, 2011b), a Schnaiderman (1983, 2011), metodologicamente consiste na interpretação dos elementos constitutivos do projeto discursivo do autor, das relações dialógicas instauradas e, consequentemente, da produção de sentidos do enunciado. A análise põe em cotejo ainda o conto O crocodilo com outras obras de Dostoiévski principalmente para a abordagem das peculiaridades nelas presentes. A conclusão aponta na direção da relevância de se levar em conta os elementos da constituição do conto O crocodilo como localizados em algum ponto fronteiriço entre o ato ético e o estético.Universidade de São Paulo.
