Ao analisar os textos Carmilla (1872), de Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, e Sabella (1980), de Tanith Lee, buscamos apontar alguns traços comuns característicos quanto às descrições das personagens femininas e as posturas que assumem diante da sociedade na qual estão inseridas, a fim de encontrar alguns possíveis aspectos norteadores para a construção da identidade feminina literária. A partir de um olhar mais aprofundado para as personagens-título Carmilla e Sabella — ambas vampiras e representativas de dois momentos distintos da literatura de ficção inglesa — retratamos os contextos histórico-sociais em que os autores se inserem. A análise baseou-se em algumas teorias feministas desenvolvidas e disseminadas ao longo dos anos 70 e 80, que visam discutir os novos posicionamentos da mulher dentro de contextos sociais até então “proibidos”, tais como trabalho, política e sexualidade. Interagimos também com textos que relacionam a representação social da mulher ligada à figura mitológica do vampiro – representação essa diretamente associadas às transformações emocionais que tratam do embate primitivo do bem vs. o mal. / The aim of this study was to make a comparative analysis focusing on the female literary representations present in two English novels. Through the study of the novels Carmilla (1872), by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, and Sabella (1980), by Tanith Lee, we examined the main common characteristics from female characters and their attitudes within the society to which they belong, and with the purpose of finding some possible points leading to a literary female identity construction. From a deep contact with the title-characters Carmilla and Sabella – both female vampires and also representatives of distinct English literary fiction periods – we depict the social-historical contexts to which each author belongs. The analysis is based on some feminist theories developed and propagated along of the 70’s and the 80’s, which discuss the new places occupied by women in social contexts so far known as “banned”, like out-of-house works, politics and sexuality. We also interact with texts related to social female representations linked to the mythological vampire figure – a kind of representation directly associated to some emotional transformations dealing with the primitive opposition between good vs. evil.

Nessas narrativas, os representantes da fé e da razão são apresentados com enfoques distintos, o que permite observar as diferentes maneiras como Le Fanu aborda a religião e a ciência. Com base nessas leituras, procura-se observar se o autor dá mais credibilidade a algum desses ramos ou se ambos se mostram ineficazes perante os elementos sobrenaturais. Neste estudo também será levada em consideração a ambientação das narrativas e a quem pertence a voz narrativa de cada um dos relatos, que não permanecem as mesmas em todos os contos. Para fins teóricos, foram utilizados autores que estudaram o gênero do fantástico – Todorov e Roas – e do horror – Carroll / This work aims to analyze how the religious and scientific mentalities relate in “The Familiar”, “Green Tea” and “Carmilla”,short stories included in the collection In a Glass Darkly, written by the Irish author Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. In these short stories, the representatives of both faith and reason are presented in distinct perspectives, which makes it possible to observe Le Fanu’s different approaches to science and religion in these works. Based on these readings, there is an attempt to observe whether the author gives more credibility to any of these branches of thought or if both prove to be ineffective in dealing with the supernatural events. This study will also take into account the settings of these short stories and their narrative voices, which do not remain the same in all short stories considered here. Authors who worked with the fantastic genre – Todorov and Roas – and with horror – Carroll – provided the theoretical support for this dissertation

This study explores the relationship of Royall Tyler's The Contrast with Richard Brinsley Sheridan's The School for Scandal, to determine whether Tyler used The School for Scandal as a model for The Contrast. Chapter I contains a statement of the problem and an introduction to the historical importance of Tyler and The Contrast. Chapter II discusses the theatrical background of Tyler and the city of Boston. Chapter III includes a brief history of Sheridan and an examination of The School for Scandal. Chapter IV compares The Contrast with The School for Scandal. Chapter V presents conclusions drawn from the evidence examined in Chapters III and IV. The Contrast is not an imitation of The School for Scandal, though both contain elements of similarity.
