Resumo

To tell stories is part of the essence of human beings. Since our earliest ancestors we have been involved by several narratives - oral, written or broadcasted. With the changes raised by the Gutenberg Galaxy, narratives gained more visibility in the art of storytelling, especially in literature. Since the 1950's that television is replacing printed texts, using audio and image together to further engage human beings in the real and fictional narratives. And this thesis is based on the search of elements of approximation and divergence between literature and television, having as object of study the novel written by Dinah Silveira de Queiroz, A Muralha, originally published in 1954, and the homonymous adaptation as a television series produced by TV Globo in 2000. The methodology includes the analysis of the relationships between literary and television studies by the perspective of cultural studies and cultural media, focusing particularly on the features of each of these media,looking for theoretical backgrounds that support the hypothesis of this research. As narrative is the main concern of this thesis, theories and analysis of focalization, space, time and characters became extremely important, as well the reflections about the three perspectives of adaptation and the four adaptive processes, which are: addition, reduction, displacement and transformation. This study lead us to conclude that as much as literature and television give evidences to prove the uniqueness of each of these artistic expressions, they contain similar and important elements that support the art of turning words into images.
