A relação existente entre direito e literatura, a partir da obra Dom Casmurro, de Machado de Assis

Abstract

The present monographic work entitled “The relation between Law and Literature, from the work Dom Casmurro, by Machado de Assis” aims to point out the existing interfaces between the two areas of knowledge: Law and Literature, based on the work Dom Casmurro, of Machado de Assis, having as main focuses the advantages that each on of these areas can obtain when constructing the knowledge together. For that, a bibliographic research was developed based on the considerations of Bernal et al. (2013), Schwartz (2004), ASSIS (2015) among others. The present research took into account for the selection of the literary work Dom Casmurro, of Machado de Assis, its intimate relationship with several judicial aspects and the way in which these aspects were developed by the author of the work. It was also tried to demonstrate the importance of Literature in relation to the offer of contextualized cases/conflicts so that good analyzes can be developed in the legal field. The results indicate, among other aspects, the need to work with the Law in an interdisciplinary way.
