description The essay describes the particularly contradictory situation of what has become known as Theory. The text tries to characterize, by means of a comparison with its closest relative, literary theory, its methods, objects, subjects and places of enunciation. In all of them, it is concluded, there is an unheard-of potential for freedom inextricably mixed with surrender to the market. The article ends with short considerations on the possibilities for practicing Theory in the Brazilian situation, since Theory can no longer be ignored nor simply accepted without mediations.

The text tries to characterize, by means of a comparison with its closest relative, literary theory, its methods, objects, subjects and places of enunciation. In all of them, it is concluded, there is an unheard-of potential for freedom inextricably mixed with surrender to the market. The article ends with short considerations on the possibilities for practicing Theory in the Brazilian situation, since Theory can no longer be ignored nor simply accepted without mediations. O presente artigo descreve a situação contraditória do que se convencionou chamar de Teoria. Através de uma comparação com sua parente mais próxima, a teoria literária, o texto procura caracterizar a Teoria levando em consideração seus métodos, objetos, sujeitos e locais de enunciação. Em todos eles, conclui-se, há um potencial de liberdade em mistura com uma rendição ao mercado. O ensaio termina com breves considerações a respeito das possibilidades da Teoria no Brasil, uma vez que esta última não pode mais ser ignorada, nem, por outro lado, ser simplesmente aceita sem mediação. 2007-06-29 2022-03-18T16:20:11Z 2022-03-18T16:20:11Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/letras/article/view/242 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/61515 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/letras/article/view/242/241 Copyright (c) 2007 Revista de Letras application/pdf Revista de Letras Revista de Letras Revista de Letras; Vol. 44 No. 1 (2004) Revista de Letras; v. 44 n. 1 (2004) 1981-7886 0101-3505
