Abstract

This article presents a study about the relationship between literature, cinema and cinematographic script in the novel Miguel e os demônios, by Lourenço Mutarelli, published in 2009. In it, we identify and investigate how dialogue is established with the cinema and with the genre script cinematographic, through the incorporation of cinematographic language resources by the literary text. Our objective was not to compare different languages, but to remain in the field of writing and investigate how it corroborates traces of a visibility linked to audiovisual technology. In this way, we understand that this novel mobilizes in a symptomatic way the relations that the literary text establishes with the language of the cinema and with the script genre, sometimes incorporating linguistic experimentalism as a possibility of dialogue with the market, sometimes problematizing the idea of ??cinema in the form of text and the difficulties of representation in a universe flooded by the audiovisual.
