The Ironic Insert Of Ngunga's Adventures: A Story Of Angola, Of Pepetela, In The Movie In The Hollow City, Of Ganga: Intertextualidade Parodica And Distopia

Abstract

In this article, we will reflect on the parodic recovery of paradigmatic text for the Angolan culture, Ngunga's adventures, by the flm Hollow city. We will compare the course of the protagonists, seeking approximations and divergences between such fctional elements. Then, from the theorizations about the parodic intertextual dialogue, we will study the meeting of the two textual materialities, a process we call the staging of reading. At this point, we will deal with the insertions of Ngunga's adventures in Hollow city. We shall raise all the explicit references to the narrative text of Pepetela, brought to the dance by means of theatrical adaptation, seeking to explore possible meanings for such insertion, seen as ironic and parody
