O narrador e a personagem de ficção nas reportagens de Eliane Brum : jornalismo e literatura em O olho da rua

Abstract

The reports in Eliane Brum's O olho da rua (2017) are an example of a model of journalism identified with contemporary literary journalism. In them, the narrator and the character have characteristics that are also present in fictional narratives and, therefore, allow for the construction of meanings that differ from the objectivism of other journalistic genres. This study seeks to identify how the fictional narrator and character are expressed in the author's work and how they contribute to the literary aspects of the reports. This analysis is limited to the stories "A floresta das parteiras", "A casa de velhos" and "Vida até o fim: a enfermaria entre a vida e a morte". The theoretical framework is based mainly on Genette (1995) and Coimbra (2004), which provide the research analysis categories. The conclusion is that the literary elements present in Eliane Brum's reports give emotion and sensitivity to the journalistic text, bringing the reader closer to the reality narrated and accentuating aspects that characterize humanized journalism.
