Following on from the first volume, devoted to the study of "actantial figures of decline" in the novels of Portuguese neo-realist writer Carlos de Oliveira: Casa na Duna, 1942, Pequenos Burgueses, 1948, Uma Abelha na Chuva, 1953 and Finisterra, 1978; this second volume, entitled "spatiotemporal figures of decline", takes a semiotic and epistemological approach to the faces of time and space. The author explores the signs of human decay with a theoretical apparatus based on psychoanalysis (Gaston Bachelard), psychocriticism (Charles Mauron), geopoetics (Michel Collot) and geocriticism (Christine Baron). The rural space of the Gândara, a lunar setting where humanity struggles close to chaos, is analysed in minute detail. Chronological time is considered in its inexorable evolution towards decadence or in the fossilising conservatism it inspires in the petty bourgeoisie. A microcosm of Portuguese society at the time of the Salazar dictatorship, the domestic circle is symbolised by swamps that ferment and then offer the troubled faces of metamorphosis towards death.
