Abstract

Taking as an object of analysis the play The God of Fortune (a parable about the metaphysics of capital), this essay seeks to understand the political intentions and the dramaturgical narrative of the play as an opportunity to look at the representations of the social relations in which the Alfenim Collective, author of the play, acts artistically. This essay discusses such actions as strategies for meeting the “human”, questioning the notion of “humanity” and explaining the relations of class, gender and sexuality in which individuals create, make themselves and conjugate their verbs.
