Resumo: |
In this dissertation, an analysis was carried out concerning the speeches of silence performed by women characters in the novel Memorial do Convento, written by José Saramago. The characters are: D. Maria Ana Josefa, Sebastiana de Jesus and Blimunda de Jesus. The inductive methodology was used, starting from the particular premises while we observed the incidences of the discourse of silence in the corpus, with the purpose of reaching another premise, which is the identification and characterization of this phenomenon in the literary discourse. The research has a qualitative and phenomenological nature, since we believe that the knowledge of the problem is the result of the vision we have about what is perceived: the speech of silence of the characters. This perception reveals us that the absence of voices does not mean a gap in the saying, taking into account that the silence of women has a meaning. The silence of characters is one recorded by the author and has a resounding of the story as a determining ingredient for the behavior of such characters. Therefore, the construction of the saying of the silence has a structure based on the conception the society had regarding women and witches. In order to cover the problem thoroughly, our starting point was a careful reading of the novel, looking at the behavior of the characters under consideration, considering not only the historical and social circumstances that impacted the women of the 18th century, period covered by the narrator, but also the lines of literary discourse in the novel. For the theoretical underpinning of this study, we researched intensively the postulates of the Literary Theory about novels related to History and Fiction, focusing mainly on the concepts of characters and narrator |
