This dissertation focuses on the study of historiographic metafiction in contemporary Brazilian juvenile narratives. The choice of our theme (historiographic metafiction) and research object (juvenile narrative) took into consideration the growth and importance of juvenile literature (JL) in the current scenario which has attracted an increased number of academic studies as well as the recurrence of the use of metafictional resources in the literature in general and the presence of historiographic metafiction in the narratives published in the period understood as Postmodernity (HUTCHEON, 1991). Therefore, our general research objective was to verify the occurrence of historiographic metafiction in contemporary Brazilian juvenile narratives, considering the specificities of the JL genre. The specific objectives were: to identify how the historiographic metafiction appears in the juvenile narratives; point out the aspects of historiographic metafiction that are most evident in the analysed books; and evaluate how this type of fiction may expand the formative potential of the juvenile literature. The research, of a bibliographic nature and qualitative analysis, observed the following procedures: 1) bibliographic review pertinent to the investigation; 2) selection of a group of juvenile narratives produced in the period covered by the research, according to the pre-established criteria; 3) study of the selected texts, identifying the most recurrent aspects of the historiographic metafiction and their relationship with the JL genre’s specificities. In order to make a better delimitation of the research corpus, we selected a group of six narratives of the Brazilian JL as representative of the investigated phenomenon which were published in the first decades of the 21st century, establishing 2017 as the cutoff year of this selection. The present investigation intends to continue and complement the contributions made by other researchers in the field, expanding this investigative view when discussing juvenile narratives that encompass, in their fictional work, the postmodern phenomenon understood as historiographic metafiction. The conclusions of this study point to the meaningful union between the proper characteristics of juvenile narrative (formative elements) and the resources of the historiographic metafiction (intertextuality,This dissertation focuses on the study of historiographic metafiction in contemporary Brazilian juvenile narratives.

The conclusions of this study point to the meaningful union between the proper characteristics of juvenile narrative (formative elements) and the resources of the historiographic metafiction (intertextuality, metafictionality, parodic resources, reinterpretation of the historical narrative) within the analysed books, elements capable to significantly contribute to the readers in formative process. metafictionality, parodic resources, reinterpretation of the historical narrative) within the analysed books, elements capable to significantly contribute to the readers in formative process.
