El objetivo del Trabajo es analizar, desde una perspectiva genetteana del orden temporal, la incidencia que las numerosas anacronías presentes en el discurso de Vineland (1990), de Thomas Pynchon, tienen en el conjunto de la obra, bien a través de movimientos analépticos y prolépticos, bien mediante inmersiones en niveles hipodiegéticos. Para alcanzar dicho objetivo se presentará el marco teórico más utilizado en narratología, el propuesto por Gérard Genette. Asimismo, se observarán tanto las debilidades de esta propuesta en su aplicación sobre literatura postmodernista como la perspectiva más reciente de Brian McHale, a fin de establecer un modelo de análisis alternativo en aquellos discursos no secuenciales.

A obra tardia de Theo Angelopoulos, desenvolvida na última década de 1990, além das características políticas, possui um viés religioso ainda pouco compreendido. O objetivo desse artigo é analisar como essa religiosidade se apresenta na narrativa do cineasta grego. Usaremos como suporte autores como Mircea Eliade, Michael Bahktin, Gerard Genette e Jan Albert. Como amostra usaremos o filme A Eternidade e um dia (Mia aioniotita kai mia mera, 1998).

Privacy Invasion

This chapter offers an overview of a genre that has attracted little attention qua genre: the legal paratext. Gérard Genette likened the paratext to a vestibule that operates as a zone of transition and transaction, a liminal space that prepares the reader’s experience of the text. Yet there are other, more cautionary paratexts that crowd, often invisibly, the vestibules of books and other cultural forms. This chapter surveys the transatlantic (American and British) repertoire of legal paratexts appearing in books, including copyright notices, once mandatory in the United States but now permissive there and in many countries; statements of US manufacture, deriving from a period in American publishing when copyright protection turned on strict compliance with the statutory requirement that books be physically manufactured on US soil; “all characters are fictitious” disclaimers, which urge readers to put aside their instinct to sue for libel or for privacy invasion and to engage with the text as a fictive and aesthetic creation; “no-obscenity” statements—a feature of many controversial modernist works—which seek to discourage official attempts at censorship and assure readers that books have been or are likely to be deemed by a court to be safe for consumption. Legal paratexts continue to crowd the vestibules of books, movies, musical recordings, and other works, warning readers, scolding them, and attempting to regulate their behavior in accordance with legal and corporate norms. They are linked to other literary genres, such as parody, satire, the apologia, and the palinode.
