(Rossum's Universal Robots), escrita pelo autor checo Karel Capek em 1920 e especialmente importante por introduzir, na literatura moderna, a figura do robô do modo que hoje a concebemos. A princípio, apresentamos de maneira breve alguns dos autômatos retratados pela literatura fantástica do século XIX, de forma a distinguir a nova abordagem de Capek sobre o tema. Posteriormente, destacamos passagens da peça, ato a ato, relacionando-as a teóricos da filosofia e da crítica literária, de modo a sugerir novas possibilidades de leitura que se distanciem das interpretações comuns surgidas desde a época de sua publicação e primeiras representações. Para o êxito de tal tarefa, devemos repensar o significado do robô dentro do contexto ficcional de R.U.R. e as implicações geradas pelo seu surgimento. / Abstract: This work examines the theatrical play R.U.R. (Universal Rossum's Robots), written by the Czech author Karel Capek in 1920, and its particular importance for introducing, in modern literature, the figure of the robot as we conceive of it today. Initially, we briefly present some of automatons realized in fantastic literature of the XIX century, distinguishing Capek's new approach. Later, we point out parts of the play, act by act, suggesting relationships to particular philosophers and commenting the criticism on the play, in order to suggest new possibilities of reading different from the common interpretations since its publication and first production. For the success of such task, we need to rethink the meaning of the robot, inside the fictional context of R.U.R., and the implications generated by its appearance. / Mestrado / Historia e Historiografia Literaria / Mestre em Teoria e História Literária
