Abstract

This article aims at discussing the category laughter as an attribute of Hilda Hilst’s literature. Process-effect, glimpse of a writing that places no beginning or end, because of the (dis)order of laughter in continuous and incessant scales, cyclical, of fleeting and permanent rhythms: like a spiral. For this, the text was divided into two stages: first, an overview about the concept of laughter as historical-literary category; and, second, the laughter that appropriates (or is appropriate) in/through Hilda Hilst’s literature in its own scales: from the naive laughter to the grotesque laughter.
