Open-access EXTERIOR SOULS. A REFLECTION ON FASHION AND WRITING IN MACHADO DE ASSIS

Abstract

Through the examination of references to fashion and clothing, this article is a reflection on what is contingent, accessory and necessary in some of the works of Machado de Assis. What is the function of qualia in literature? Is it a mere prop to create "realism" or does it reflect the fundamentals of the very making of literature?

fashion; mimesis; qualia; public; private; eroticism
