| Abstract | |
Under the name of thriller, a set of television serial fiction has been standing out today for instigating the on-demand reception beyond two hours, as measured by Netflix Media Center in 2016. Based on this assumption, the thesis asks: what is suspense and thriller? It is considered that there are oscillations around this term as a meaning reference. This publicity of the service on demand is analyzed, examining the corpus indicated with the nomination, as well as literary and cinematographic works identified with the term. On the one hand, greater attention is given to context, with the examination of texts from periodicals with mentions of words suspense and thriller. On the other hand, conceptual and narrative aspects are discussed. From Tzvetan Todorov (2017), suspense is understood as a historical and theoretical genre. Furthermore, the typology of police narrative by Todorov (2013) is questioned, where thriller appears between mystery story and black series. As a methodological protocol, it focused on suspension and hesitation as narrative categories extracted from the meaning of the term suspense, discussing them in remarkable stories from numerous currents of literature, in order to understand which suspensions possibly motivated the reader in their enjoyment. Finally, these suspensions were compared with the suspensions of the suspense statement. (AU) | |
