| description | Aversion to violence is a recurring theme in Erico Verissimo’s fiction writing. In his novels there are always voices that rise and denounce the ills caused by it to humans. Among these voices used by the writer to combat it, perhaps the strongest is the female one. Therefore, we present in this article some reflections about the horror of the war, made by some of his main characters: Clarissa, Ana Terra, Bibiana e Maria Valeria. Through them, the writer shows the violent and inhuman side of war, quite unlike the glorious side almost always spread by the official history. |

A aversão à violência é uma temática recorrente na ficção do escritor Erico Verissimo. Nos seus romances há sempre vozes que se levantam e denunciam os males causados por ela aos seres humanos. Dentre essas vozes utilizadas pelo autor para combatê-la, talvez a mais forte seja a voz feminina. Nesse sentido, apresentamos neste artigo algumas reflexões sobre o horror da guerra, feitas por algumas de suas principais personagens: Clarissa, Ana Terra, Bibiana e Maria Valéria. Através delas, o escritor mostra o lado violento e desumano da guerra, bem diferente do lado glorioso quase sempre difundido pela história oficial. 2013-01-11 2022-03-18T16:20:36Z 2022-03-18T16:20:36Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/letras/article/view/5722 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/61740 por https://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/letras/article/view/5722/4461 Copyright (c) 2013 Revista de Letras application/pdf Revista de Letras Revista de Letras Revista de Letras; Vol. 51 No. 2 (2011) Revista de Letras; v. 51 n. 2 (2011) 1981-7886 0101-3505 |
