Repetição e automodelagem na ficção de Carlos Sussekind

Abstract

This article intends to explore the role of repetition in the work of Carlos Sussekind and its connection with the constitution of its fictional subjects. It starts with the observation of the compositional and fictional artifices linked to the act of copying or the attempt of copying, with the aim of demonstrating that the traditionally established relations between the model and its representation are subverted by these processes. Next, we defend the existence of a relationship between these artifices and the processes of identification, substitution and fusion that interconnect the subjects of this work, based on the hypothesis that the constitution of these subjects always occurs through their language practices, which can be repeated or emulated. Finally, it is insinuated that the connection between repetition and the constitution of subjects explored here may be part of a broader repetitive aspect of the author's work.
