BIG AREA: Lingüística, Letras e Artes
AREA: Letras
SUMMARY:

The relevance of this research lies on the encouragement of developing critical thinking about what contemporary literature says in its universe, valuing a problematic perspective, from common sense to the critical status of the concept of Death. Through an investigation in the Comparative Literature field, a dialogue among Literature, History and Philosophy is fostered, enriching literature as a privileged space for dialogue. Through qualitative research, supported by a bibliographic research methodology, our main objective is to investigate the figurations of death in the literature of the writers Javier Marías and Bernardo Carvalho, through the texts Mañana en la batalla piensa en mí (1994), Berta Island (2017) and Sympathy for the Devil (2016). In a second moment, a dialogue is sought between literary analysis and the extemporaneous philosophical thought of Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, developing an investigation of the affinities between the narratives and concepts created by this philosopher.
