Before the first considerations of this study began, Steiner (2006 [1961]) would advise us that the tragedy is dead, as well as remind us of Saussure (2006 [1916]) that the referent does not fit the arbitrary logic of language; but, as Bacon (2005 [1869]) proves, it is easier to disconfirm hypotheses than to try to demonstrate that something will always happen. Based on this dicto simplicitere logic, this study seeks to corroborate the occasion of a tragedy in the midst of realistic literary production and the relevance of less arbitrary aspects of the language - proper names - for such proof. Acting in an interdisciplinary way, as the literary onomatics allows, this work situates the Portuguese work “Os Maias” as a hybrid Portuguese-bourgeois tragedy, as well as theorizing the functions of anthroponyms (Guérios, 1973) and space, as tragic-determining agents of the mentioned work; enabling function of the perspective of the tragic in a bourgeois fictional context.
Keywords: Literary onomastics; Literary anthroponomastics; Literary toponymy; Os Maias. Bourgeois tragedy.
