A memória roubada na sociedade ditatorial construída em K.: relato de uma busca (2011). 2023. 85 f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Letras - Língua Portuguesa) - Departamento de Letras, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/56960This final project aims to analyze the novel K.: relato de uma busca (2011) by Bernardo Kucinski and its relation to society. Considering this, the methodology will be the study of structural reduction advocated by Cândido (1993). Therefore, narrative devices will be investigated to unveil their role in the collectivity representation in the narrated authoritarian period depicted. Following this research area, the first element studied will be the narrative perspective, drawing on Leite (2007), given that the vocal plurality anchors on a shift of perspective throughout the narrative. Moreover, the second device will be temporality, based on Nunes (1995), since this tool is essential for understanding the relationship between contemporary society and the dictatorial society of the period. Finally, a few discourse genres in the novel will be analyzed, supported by Bakhtin (2003), as the contextual usage of each genre characterizes the social conjunction to which it belongs. Given memory’s guiding hand in the narrative, it finds theoretical grounding in Bosi (2004). Furthermore, the historiographical aspect will be rooted in Napolitano (2014). In this way, this work seeks to attest that this social collective built in the novel characterizes Brazilian dictatorial society, providing answers to the silences caused by the regime. This dynamic breeds a lack of a stable official history and, as a consequence, the incorporation of this repressive dictatorial trauma in the form of a ghost that looms over us and feeds off our structural forgetfulness.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Ditadura militar brasileiraSociedadeLiteraturaK.MemóriaSilêncioBrazilian military dictatorshipSocietyLiteraturememorysilencebachelorThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES
