Abstract

This research is built on a previous Scientific Initiation held with PIBIC/CNPq/Rectory bursary of UNESP that verified the intertextual process performed by the writer, philosopher, director, TV host and Italian actor Luciano de Crescenzo put in practice in the writing of the work Nessuno (1997). In this next step that is now proposed, it aimed to verify whether in the rewriting of Homeric work proposed by De Crescenzo there was irony or humour. Initially the research seeks to perform readings regarding the modalities cited to draw conclusions in a second stage of the research.
