The purpose of this research is to investigate the ways in which modern authors have constructed their characters and their relationships with the postulates of queer theory. The problem arose when we became aware of a collection called A Fantástica Literatura Queer, and noted that its narratives ran away from the non-identity politics of the aforementioned theory, directing their tales to an LGBT perspective. Therefore, we decided to investigate how the writers of this collection saw the queer in the construction of their narratives/characters. The hypothesis raised is that the collection that is labeled queer, based on the theory that has become very popular in recent years, is in fact confined to an LGBT theme. We have also proposed, in literary texts outside the collection, to analyze from a queer point of view, in scenarios that precede the invention of theory, as works by authors like Oswald de Andrade and Virginia Woolf behave in the face of such a perspective. Therefore, we believe that our work will have repercussions on how the contemporary writer / reader would approach queer in literary texts. For this we base our research on Judith Blutler (2002, 2003, 2013), a thinker who wrote the book considered one of the initial milestones of queer studies: Gender Trouble (1990); Richard Miskolci (2015), authority of theory in Brazil; Beatriz Preciado (2010; 2014), who wrote the groundbreaking Contrassexual Manifesto and the notion of queer crowds; Jacques Derrida (2008), with its key concept of deconstruction, among other authors. We hope to observe how contemporary writers see Queer and how works prior to theory behave in the face of their contemporaneity. We conclude the work by finding different views about the queer in the texts we have analyzed, and a myriad of directions that theory studies could project for the future.
