Abstract

We can observe, from all the work of Nemesio and especially in the novel "O Tubarão," the author's concern with building language based on a confrontation between elements in order to explain the ideas he has in mind. Thus, the author manages to compare two members of a syntactic construction in such a way that the clarification of meaning in one of them is possible because of what is known about the other. In this procedure, there is not a transfer of representation of the comparative element, as in metaphor, but the confrontation of diverse forms of meaning, or, according to Martins (1989: 97): "a connection between elements of different nature, that is, a simile, or qualitative, assimilative or metaphorical comparison".
