Abstract

This thesis main aim is to perform a cross-border critical-autobiographical reading of the project homo-bio-ficcional-ensaísta from the author and intellectual from Minas Gerais Silviano Santiago upon, above all, of yours/ours novel Mil rosas roubadas published in 2014. With this purpose, I will draw on the meanings of sine qua non from a theoretical other, mainly originated from the geopolitical, epistemological and metaphorical South and from a biographical and comparative analysis nature, from the biographeme assessed upon my own intelectual (auto)biography being a homem-menino-fronteira, researcher and homossexual who not only survives, critically thinks, and lives to write according to the South border country line located in Latin America, but above all particularly focus his writings in Brazil. In this regard, those links will endorse, mostly, what is understood by the researcher Edgar Cézar Nolasco while critical-biographical border writer tangled in a bibliographical methodology of his own. As a general idea, this theoretical clipping other convey as an epistemological surroundings from the South, the cross-border studies and border-critical biography readings until nowadays widely discussed in Brazil.

To conclude, in chapter III, “ENTRE SILVIANOS, VIRGINIAS E FRONTEIRAS: escrevivências roubadas, (con)fundidas e in(corpo)radas”, crossing through aforementioned concepts; it will be laid on cross-border injunctions on Silviano plus the concept of proper names, signatures and friendship together in a biographical-comparative between my author from Minas Gerais and the English writer Virginia Woolf with her biographical novel Orlando (2017).
