Summary: ABSTRACT
The short narrative, also known as short story, in the context of the Brazilian Late Modernism, is the object of study in this work. The short story possesses its own categorization, differentiating itself from other literary narratives in what theory commonly denominates extension or, according to Carlos Reis and Ana C. Lopes, a modality of temporal variation of the narrative. All the elements that mark the diversity of this textual type in relation to the various narrative forms such as brevity, constitutive simplicity, linearity, plot concentration, chronotopic concentration, dramatic density, thematic singularity, intensity, univocity and univalence are somehow related to
extension. The emphasis of the analysis and the interpretation of the time and space componentes in the formation of the chronotope are conceived, in this research, aiming the recognition of a pathos that may provide density to the modern short story brevity. The main sources of research in analysis and interpretation of short stories were based on specialized studies in literary theory and critics. Also those that studied the chronotope in
the context of modernity, in the twentieth century, and philosophers and scholars of time and space, considering the narratives as focus.
Keywords: short story; chronotope; chronotopic pathos; brazilian late modernism; short stories of Clarice Lispector, Osman Lins and João Guimarães Rosa.
