These notes go over José de Alencar’s play “O que é o casamento?”, 1861, and the fictional prose by Machado de Assis, in his short story “Curiosity”, 1879. The “contents precipitation” Peter Szondi names stems from the historically-conditioned synthesis found at a certain time. We discuss Machado’s contribution to this end, with the refinement of his fictional prose, the anticipation of clearly modern trends related to the fetish-subject, the strong negotiation with readers/spectators, and the concrete and interdiscursive overcoming of his contemporaneous playwriting, in which Alencar stood out.Downloads
