O espaço do visível e do invisível na obra “Ensaio sobre a cegueira”

Abstract

The main object of study of this work is to analyze the visible and invisible spaces as a fundamental piece of transformation of the characters within José Saramago's work on blindness (1995), since the characters change throughout the narrative. It is also intended to work the space category, as well as philosophical theories about space, in order to report the spaces that the narrative addresses. In this way we use from the reading of Luis Alberto Brandão in his work "The theory of literary space", where he presents the theories that were chosen for the study of the work. With "The poetics of the space -Gaston Bachelard" and "Microfisicalof the power" of Foucault.
