Resumen
This dissertation, entitled O Auto da Morte e da Vida: A escrita barroca de João Cabral de
Melo Neto, has the aim of analising, interpreting, in a baroque perspective, Cabral s writing in
the poem/play Morte e vida severina Auto de Natal Pernambucano, taking as basis the
theories of Eugênio D´Ors, Severo Sarduy, Omar Calabrase, Lezama Lima, Afonso Ávila,
Affonso Romano de Sant´Anna and others cited in the body of this work. During the analisys
we feature confluences, relations, similarities, identification between the Baroque of the
counter reformation and the modern Baroque or Neobaroque. We seek to comprehend the
baroque which is new in the XX century and Cabral s poetry as an element of the
contemporaneity, by updating the concept of the Baroque in the 1600s, when it is detected in
its purest characteristic in human relation (the life of the Northwestern brazilian) through an
intangible reality (the death). The Baroque as a cultural summary of a period of instability and
transformation, with the power of dismantling an already established poetry. The fight
between words and things, language and reality
