Abstract

In the context of the project “Figuras da Ficção”, this paper aims to show how the concept of figuration and the discursive fictional and ational processes that conform it take place in the narrative fiction of the baroque literature. This is a field of study with specific characteristics related to the stylistic codes and the intentionality and the exemplarity of the narrative production. The Doze novelas written by Gerardo de Escobar (Lisboa, 1674) show as the characters, especially the protagonists, come from a portrait imposed as suitable for a development based on the action, always established on the dichotomy of the virtue and malice.
