A vingança da mímesis: historicidade e midiatização da cultura na narrativa seriada televisiva

Abstract

The serial televised fiction takes place in a situation in which the empirical reality interacts with the fictional creation. History is recounted through criteria, which are dictated by the principles, which govern the construction of the televised show. The flowing of this narrative undergoes a course of two-way course: the facts, which mark the daily action of the media and regulate fiction and vice-versa. Thus, the soap opera becomes the object of informal conversations, proposing a wide debate, which goes beyond the conventional spheres of the fictional narrative, bringing to the common citizen elements to judge issues of interest to the polis. This article discusses this specific way in which media and public interact, mapping some essential elements to understand the most comprising questions, which mark the interaction between the televised media and culture.

Keywords: telenovela, television, narrativity.
