UMA DEFINIÇÃO SOCIAL DE MÁRCIO SOUZA
Abstract
Abstract: This article aims to compose a possible social identity of Márcio Souza circunscribed to the “beginning” of his intellectual trajectory as a novelist. Social identity refers to the way in which the author and his initial books are read and interpreted both by the creator himself and by the audience of consultants at different times, whether they are critics, reviewers and literate peers, in constant communication with the broader audience formed by called “faceless readers”. The theoretical foundation was anchored, above all, in the work of the french sociologist Pierre Bourdieu and the methodology was guided by the readings of Márcio Souza's “initial” novels, as well as in interviews, critical reviews and studies on his “work”. What concludes this study conclusively is to recognize that Márcio Souza's creative project is devoted to establishing a split point in Amazonian literature, that is, between a “modernist” literature as opposed to another considered “passadist”, at the same time in which a set of billing elements from the literary work is used as a strategy to launch itself into the group of literature classifiers and be recognized by them.
