Análise intertextual dos contos A escrava, de Maria Firmina, e Negrinha, de Monteiro Lobato: temática, estrutura e contexto sócio-histórico

Abstract

This monograph aims to investigate the intertextuality of the short stories "A escrava" (1887), by Maria Firmina, and "Negrinha" (1920), by Monteiro Lobato, considering aspects related to theme, structure, authorship, and how the socio-historical context manifests itself in the narrative of the stories. Initially, the context in which each author lived and the context of production of the stories are addressed, as well as the relationship between context and literature, and its nuances. Finally, analyses of the stories are presented, highlighting their distinct and similar aspects in narrative and theme, and the contextual intertextuality between them is also evidenced. This research is basic in nature, with a qualitative approach, based on theoretical studies by Candido (2011), Fiorin (2006), Bakhtin (2013), Culler (1999), Pesavento (2006), Bosi (2021), Moisés (2016), Lajolo (2019), Diogo (2022), Costa (2018), Martins (2005), Montello (2018), Duarte (2018), Borges (2010), among others.
