Robert Coover é um importante escritor norte-americano preocupado com as perspectivas sociais, psicológicas, econômicas e políticas contemporâneas e com o modo como elas se configuram na formação da sociedade do seu país. Essa preocupação se reflete tanto nas técnicas de construção de suas histórias, quanto nas críticas apresentadas em suas narrativas. O trabalho em questão discute a reescrita que Coover faz de mitos bíblicos dentro do contexto pós-moderno, globalizado, compondo novos textos que subvertem os elementos tradicionais da narrativa. Mais especificamente, este artigo analisa a reescrita que o autor norte-americano empreende acerca da passagem bíblica da Arca de Noé no conto “The Brother”.

Narrative Forms

The author of the article focuses on narrative and non-narrative forms of collage. The non-narrative collage is intended as a text without the characters, events, and/ or semiotic content necessary to evoke a narrative script. The non-narrative collage is, therefore, unable to introduce a distinct storyworld, or to potentially communicate any narrative meaning that goes beyond the structural correspondence(s) of its intra-textual components.

“Literature can turn language, for the moment at least, against the sentence of death.”Considering the national and international furor provoked by the sensational early 1950's “atom spy” trial and execution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, one may be surprised that these dramatic and traumatic events have not inspired more literary artistry than they have. But a prominent playwright, Arthur Miller, did write The Crucible (produced in 1953) in part as a response to the rabid McCarthyism of that era, and two highly regarded novelists in a later decade composed ambitious novels drawing directly on the Rosenberg affair: E. L. Doctorow in The Book of Daniel (1971) and Robert Coover in The Public Burning (1977). In 1987, Sidney Lumet produced the little noticed film Daniel, based on Doctorow's novel, and still more recently Tony Kushner's Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Angels in America, with Ethel Rosenberg as one of the characters, has been playing on Broadway.
