Resumo
The present work consists, in a general way, of thinking about the occurrence of a different temporal conception in the so-called postmodernity through the analysis of dystopias. The aim of the research is to associate the discussion of temporality in the twentieth century with the theme of dystopia in contemporary times, since we understand this concept as an interpretive key to problematize historical time. We seek, therefore, to find a turning point in the relationship between history, dystopia and literature, in an attempt to understand the possible emergence of a new historical consciousness. We use the contribution of intellectuals such as Walter Benjamin and Martin Heidegger in relation to the crisis of the present time, and other philosophers and historians who attest to the mark of the change in the modern chronotope from the limit events of the last century, carrying out a discussion about presentism. Our object of analysis was the dystopic narrative of A Clockwork Orange, by the english writer Anthony Burgess (1917-1993), and the investigation came under the light of the temporal conception of the work. In addition, another dystopia by the same author was contemplated - 1985, written in a later period -, with the purpose of explaining increasingly pessimistic symptoms in this temporality, allowing us to identify the problem of the crisis of the modern historical consciousness and of the history itself while subject.
