Vida, morte, paixão e processo em Clarice Lispector

Abstract

We aim to track down some of the representations on the theme of death in Clarice Lispector’s narratives, whether it is in its most basic sense, with the topos of life’s finiteness, whether it is in another recurring motif, the poorly lived life, automatized, alienated, immersed in unnatural solitudes. In an effort above all narratological of reading, we will pay special attention to the categories of narrator, focalizer and character. The relations between fiction and society will serve as theoretical support to us, with the tracking down of social voices intermingled in narratives leading the social (in a broad sense) to the literary fortune.

Keywords: Clarice Lispector. Life. Death. Narratology.
