Narratividade nas malhas da história, língua e discurso

Abstract

The present study seeks to reflect narrativity as a human action, linked and intrinsically related to discourse along time, and, therefore, along history and literature. Literature, History, and the history of literature are so intertwined that we can say that historians do not have any access to past events, but to narratives that have come to them, attributing them meaning. The literature historian is a narrator who, in the composition of a narrative, incorporates other contexts of other instances. The narratives of the nineteenth century that presented the title of "history of literature", for example, did not present elements that we notice nowadays as pertaining to the "history of narratives", namely: the narrative feature, the events which happened in period of time and space and, above all, the organization of such elements in order to the narrative make sense. To that end, we will bring the contributions of Wellek and Warren(19--), Pensavento (2003), Culler (1999), Vodicka (1978), and Jauss (1994), among others.
