Abstract

This paper presents a study about the schemes of (in)visibility of anonymous in Pé na cova, Brazilian television sitcom broadcast by Rede Globo, written by Miguel Falabella. The episodes were analyzed according to theoretical references such as micro history, a notion by Giovanni Levi and Carlo Ginzburg, and suburbs. Our goal was to try to understand the (in)visibility schemes and images constructed by the fictional narratives of the characters of the series, understood here as anonymous, which directly or indirectly survive thanks to the people who die in the neighborhood of Irajá, Rio de Janeiro suburb. Moreover, how values and principles of the Brazilian society are discussed through a narrative filled with nonsense language used by them.
