A Terceira Margem Da História: Autoficção E Testemunho Em K. Relato De Uma Busca E Os Visitantes De Bernardo Kucinski
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This article analyzes the discursive strategies mobilized in the construction of narratives K. relato de um busca (2016) and Os visitantes (2016), by Bernardo Kucinski. These works, the experience of political violence and trauma, are constructed in a discursive space that tense the borders between fact and fiction, memory and writing, destabilizing the reader's horizon of expectations. Based on two studies on testimonies by Seligmann-Silva (2008), Figueiredo (2017), Pacheco (2018), and Sarmento-Pantoja (2021), associated with the previous autofictional stories postulated by Doubrovsky (2014), Gasparini (2014), and Colonna (2014). A reading is proposed from the intersection between testimonies and autofiction. The analysis suggests that autofiction potentiates the narrative's testimonial theory, establishing a third interpretative margin: an ambiguous pact in which the only (im)possible truth is that accessed from the fictional construction.
