Time, the everyday life that surrounds us, the space around us, people are part of a construct that shapes, destroys, and rebuilds our perception of the world and ourselves at every moment. Based on this, we aim to investigate the configuration of lyricism present in the poems “Canto de outono” (Autumn Song) and “Solidão na cidade” (Loneliness in the City), featured in the work Transporte no tempo (Transport in Time) by Ruy Belo (2017), to unravel, in dialogue with Martin Heidegger’s phenomenological-hermeneutic ontological method, a possible approach to human essence, in the sense of searching for this lost meaning. To this end, we outlined a historical parameter on 20th-century Portuguese literature, drawing on the studies of Eduardo Lourenço and Rosa Maria Martelo, in particular, with a view to contextualizing the literary moment that Portugal was experiencing. In this regard, we also note the essayist Ruy Belo (2002), in Na senda da poesia, a work in which he exemplifies some of his perspectives on poíesis.

The research demonstrates that both language and law can be understood as symbolic systems. In this study, we specifically examine the extent to which such systems can be compared, emphasizing the points of convergence and divergence, whose differences and interdependencies allow for a fruitful dialogue between the two fields of knowledge.

To this end, we adopt a qualitative and exploratory-descriptive approach, aiming to understand how terms originating from the English language are adapted and integrated into Portuguese within the gamer community. The corpus is composed of posts collected from the Reddit platform, considering utterances made between 2020 and 2025. The analysis focuses on phonological, morphological, and semantic adaptations, as well as on the appropriation and circulation of these borrowings in the discursive practices of Brazilian players. The results indicate the construction of a specific and shared vocabulary, which reveals not only the influence of linguistic globalization but also processes of group identification tied to the socio-historical and political-ideological role of English as the dominant language of digital culture.

This work aims to highlight characteristics of the short story that evidence the text’s indeterminacy, enabling greater creative involvement of the reader in the construction of meanings, escaping transparency, obviousness and totalizing answers; in addition, it aims to propose the hypothesis that the wanderings of the main character, Cariba, may represent the journey of the reader of literature. With bibliographical excerpts based on some works about the “mineiro” author (Mello, 2016; Schwartz, 1976), in addition to a solid theoretical basis (Barthes, 2004; Calvino, 1990; Candido; 2023; Jouve, 2013; Petit, 2013; Piglia, 2004), the indeterminacy of the story is analyzed in three parts: the lack of information as we enter the narrative, the constant questions and the anguish of waiting. Finally, this article provided new reading paths for an author so stigmatized within the fantasy case, as well as a new perspective on a lesser-known short story, highlighting the importance of returning to these works with a firm commitment to reading, accepting the rules of the language game.
