Os abrigos de Ricardo: O espaço habitado na obra “Moleque Ricardo”, de José Lins do Rego

Abstract

In this monograph we analyze the literary work "Moleque Ricardo" of José Lins do Rego, from the perspective of space. To propose the space category as relevant for literary analyze we follow the Bachelard's work The Poetics of Space, and Bakhtin's Questions of Literature and Aesthetics. These thinkers help us to establish the space category as relevant to the literary analysis. The first author give us a phenomenological perspective and the methodology of topoanalysis; the second author formulates the notion of cronotropus. We also dialogue with authors like Borges Filho and Osman Lins, while developing important analysis prior and meaningful to our study.
