RESUMO:

One of the principles of the classic art confines it to the ideal of harmony and beauty. Wishing to please his public, the artist became attached to these ideals, respecting the rules of composition, likelihood, moral effects and miming as determinant elements to represent Good, Beauty and Truth. Uncountable artists and writers, however, living at different times and places, differed a lot from these ideals, using opposite elements on their creation. Considering these differences, this study presents the analysis from Victor Hugo (2002) and Wolfgang Keiser (1986) about the esthetic category named grotesque and, specially, about the meaning of grotesque realism formulated by Mikhail Bakhtin (1993). According to these authors, exaggeration, deformation of the corps are part of the grotesque and lead the reader to achieve a reality that is hidden, sometimes. Identified as a constitutive element on the novel Famintos, by the Cape Verdean writer Luis Romano, the grotesque has a double function on this novel: to present hunger as the central theme not only on its social aspects, but also on its effects on the bodies as a esthetic resource to help intervention and resistance on African literature (BONNICCI, 2009). Parting from the considerations of Jauss (1994) about the horizon of expectation of a work of art, it is possible to say that, the reception of the works where the grotesque is the main element is situated on an unknown point on the reader expectations. For this reason, based on the unexpected and on the surprising, this work considers, to read Famintos, the reader as producer of a second text, built on the first act of reading, which is, in this initial moment, the only result of the reader interpretative and subjective capacity.
