Aspectos da outridade excluída em Eles eram muitos cavalos e o livro das Impossibilidades, de Luiz Ruffato

Abstract

The set of author's works Luiz Ruffato has been well analyzed by the academy, Brazilian associations and foreign organizations, where such institutions seek themes that combine esthetic issues to social and political issues of our contemporary society. In this scenario, we chose two representative narratives of this author corpus, which are: There were many horses (2001) and The Book of impossibilities (2008). In this verticalization object of study, we will focus predominantly relevant aspects to the representation of marginalized otherness in Brazilian society, which is arranged in these two narratives. This otherness will be accompanied in many sociopolitical places filled by such identities, such as the poor, women, black, old, children, migrants and others. The condition of former ex-centric people will be perceived when they do not enable effective production conditions and fair use of physical and symbolic goods; what make people invisible and far from the principles of social welfare, which they have also acquired rights but not yet in effect. For this study, predominantly we follow some theoretical and conceptual contributions of Zygmut Bauman, Pierre Bourdieu, Jonathan Culler, Roberto Schwarz, Nicholas Sevcenko, Antonio Candido, among other theorists reflecting the literary fact along with other knowledge and disciplines, thus expanding the field research and optimized plurals looks on fictional narratives of our research.
