About this ebook:
Coordenação editorial, biografia do autor, cronologia e panorama do Rio de Janeiro por Luís Augusto FischerFixação de textos, notas e posfácio de Marcelo FrizonComo ler Machado de Assis (1839-1908), o grande escritor brasileiro, autor de uma obra tão rica quanto múltipla, que tanto disse sobre o Brasil e sobre a natureza humana? Esta nova edição de Casa Velha tem o objetivo de auxiliar o leitor a penetrar no mundo e a conhecer a mente de Machado de Assis. Além de notas abundantes e de fácil com­preensão, traz um farto material que possibilita um melhor entendimento sobre o autor e sua obra: uma biografia, uma cronologia, um panorama cultural do Rio de Janeiro e um mapa da época.O autor nunca chegou a ver Casa Velha publicado em formato de livro, o que ocorreu somente em 1944. Lançado em 25 episódios entre 1885 e 1886 na revista carioca A Estação, este texto sempre foi um enigma para estudiosos e leitores. Classificado ora como romance, ora como conto, Casa Velha narra a polêmica história de um amor incestuoso a partir das lembranças de um padre, que faz um balanço das perdas e ganhos dessa paixão. Por meio dessa obra, Machado de Assis sugere que há um grande paralelo entre as esferas públicas e privadas da vida e mostra como um drama familiar pode ser um retrato acurado do Brasil do século XIX.O texto aqui publicado é original e aceito pela Academia Brasileira de Letras.
