Abstract(s)
José Saramago deixou registrado o seu assombro com a leitura de "Cien años de soledad", de Gabriel García Márquez, havendo um diálogo marcado entre aquele livro e "Levantado do chão", que, se antagônicos nos seus desfechos, aproximam-se em termos temáticos e de estratégia narrativa. Levando-se em conta outros estudos já realizados sobre as duas obras e enfatizando-se a recriação de episódios históricos trágicos a que ambas procedem, este trabalho pretende retomar e analisar alguns dos principais eixos do diálogo de Saramago com García Márquez, de maneira a mostrar ainda que ele não se restringe ao romance mais conhecido do escritor colombiano nem ao chamado realismo mágico. Tratar-se-á, portanto, de uma análise comparada do percurso e do caráter revolucionário da obra de dois autores com afinidades várias, que se viam como pares e que expressaram a sua mútua admiração pela criação um do outro.
José Saramago wrote about his amazement while reading Gabriel García Márquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude, and there is an important dialogue between this book and Raised from the Ground. Even though the two novels contrast in their denouements, they are similar from the point of view of theme and narrative strategy. Taking into account other studies on these novels and emphasizing their re-enactment of tragic historical episodes, this paper intends to resume and analyze some of the main aspects of the dialogue between Saramago and García Márquez, in order to show that it is not restricted to the Colombian writer’s most famous novel nor to the so-called magic realism. The primary focus will therefore be a comparative analysis of the career path and revolutionary nature of the work of two authors with various affinities, who saw themselves as peers and who expressed their mutual admiration for each other’s creations.
